Ultima was a pleasure to have at our house for a week to care for our cat. She was very communicative, sent photos every day, and clearly loved Pinto Bean! She was also self sufficient. We came back to a very happy cat and a tidy house. We highly recommend Ultima.
Cynthia Rowland recently took care of my two tiger boys and my apartment in Salzburg for 6 weeks (better said, she watched over them with an organized mother’s conscientious eye!) Cynthia and I are quite compatible because we notice and appreciate details – e.g. when communicating and in how we lead our lives. That means that unlike some people, she greatly appreciated all the information packed into my 27-page, A–Z “user’s manual” about my Boyz and the apartment/city. ;-) Cynthia arrived with her own list of detailed questions about the cats and the sitting situation, to ensure that her stay and my vacation went as smoothly as possible. She wanted to know things like whether I wanted written updates and how often she should send them? ( Thanks! I did – 2-3x a week.) Should she contact certain people about her presence in my place and keep them updated as well? ( I hadn’t thought of that, but good idea! ) We agreed on a whole list of actions and Cynthia not only performed as agreed, her conscientiousness & communications went above and beyond my requirements. Here are some >>quotes<< from typical messages we exchanged (FYI – my cats are rescues recovering from a prior bad home and so they have some serious trust issues): >> “boys say hi! and XOXOXO back! i'm enjoying them so much!!! attached are pics of their sweet faces for you!” << And the attached photos showed my clearly relaxed kitties as they lounged about. ☺ >> “hey beth... everything's great here! brodie is a hug-monster and duncan stays his sweet self except when he's giving brodie shit which brodie returns. :) no real fights...just the little pissy fits you said was the norm. we all say hi and send love!” << >>“SO happy to have been a help with the boys...you're right about brodie almost being a normal sweet kitty...i was pleasantly shocked at the transformation he made at the 2-week mark and that his affection increased even further over the weeks. glad if i was somehow helpful with duncan as well! it was truly my honor and pleasure to be part of making their lives better.” << (I have to add here, that the older, extreeeemely mistrustful and aggressive tom Brodie has made enormous strides in the 3 years he’s lived with me, and every interaction with cat-loving strangers helps him further re-think and modify his attitudes and behaviors. He made another BIG leap toward “normality” while Cynthia was here, watching over him so carefully and kindly. Brodie is such a smart kitty & he now loves love and loving Even More!) >> beth, thank you for giving such a great home to these boys. brodie has become so loving and trusting that it breaks my heart thinking about his horrors growing up that i don't want to even want to know the details of. duncan continues to be a sweetheart too. << >>“Dear Beth, Welcome home!!!!!!!! You are welcome! – you said thanks in your email for making your time in the States so worry-free…that is my one of my main goals so thanks for that! It makes me happy! I know you wanted me to feel free to “raid the pantry” and have your wine, etc. and didn’t want me to replace groceries I consumed but that just doesn’t feel right to me so please don’t take my reluctance as a rejection of your generosity but rather a deserved respect for your hearth and home. I had replaced some food prior to learning of your dieting plan, plus left you a bit of cash “for the house.” I’ve always felt those were unspoken rules for housesitters, and house guests for that matter…. THANK YOU for all you did so that I felt so very welcomed to Salzburg and your home!!! I got you and the boys a new fan as a small thank-you gift. The old one not only is “evil”-sounding to Brodie and Duncan it also was a bit hit-or-miss on working at all...” << >>>>>>>>>>>> Isn’t Cynthia the kind of pet sitter we all want? ( Yes! ) I hope she’s going to be available for my next long trip! Until then, I wish Cynthia all the best for her future endeavors and house sits. Because she’s equipped to handle them all! Sincerely yours, Beth Jones, Salzburg
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 19.99 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
My dog Reggie loves it here - he waits in the window for their arrival and is so excited when they arrive. His confidence has grown massively and he’s more comfortable in the presence of other dogs thanks to the lovely dogs they take on and set up at the daycare (small groups). All the people are great and Reggie loves then too!
Our Irish Setter - Rosa has been going to the Dog Day Care Club for about 5 months now, It was scary at first sending her away from us but she loves her day out on a Friday and we can do what we like for a day without worrying about her. The team are lovely and they care so much about all the dogs, it's wonderful seeing all the photos every week. She comes home exhausted but happy, which is great. This week she came home with her Repawt Card which made us smile, they say she's "enchanting" even though she barks a bit and her recall isn't the best. Well done Day Care team, you're brilliant!!
Our sproodle has been a regular with the Dog Day Care Club since he was six months, and I can't recommend them highly enough. He has the best time, comes home, has supper and goes to sleep! They take real care and attention, and back you up on any training you might be doing, and often surprise us with little touches (such as well done certificates if he's actually NOT jumped up that day!). Thank you Nick, Bryony and all the team.
Our dog loves going to The Dog Day Care Club, she waits by the window to watch out for the van that collects her! We have been very happy customers for several years.
From first meeting Nick to see where my dog Reggie would be spending his day, it was clear to see how invested and thoughtful they were from the get go. Reggie joined the team as a 7 month old energetic puppy and grew into a polite adult always coming home clean and tired. His at-home training was reinforced by the team and they also taught whistle recall which I have carried on at home. I received updates and pictures, and monthly training emails. The dogs receive mental and physical stimulation with games and off lead exercise, they make sure to group the dogs accordingly and I appreciated the ease of the pick up/drop off service - Reggie would be waiting by the door every morning and wouldn’t even look back! A caring, trustworthy team that you can rely on. Highly recommend.
Bry, Nick and the entire Dog Day Care Club team are amazing! Exceptionnel service, especially the drop off and collection and they respond rapidly to any queries or concerns you have. We have been sending our dog to them twice a week for the past few months now and from the pictures they share of his time with them you can tell he is having a great time socialising with other dogs and roaming free in their secure enclosed fields! Would highly recommend them for doggy daycare!
I have a rescue dog who was very anxious with other dogs but since joining the dog day care club he has relaxed and absolutely loves his time there! They have helped my scruffy boy hugely and managed to put a very anxious mum at ease quickly. The feed back is great (even giving report cards and certificates) and there are always great photos of the woofers having fun! They are reliable and always manage to fit in an extra day when I need a bit of help. I can not recommend this fantastic day care enough!
My dog George has been to the Dog Day Care Club since we arrived from Australia - he absolutely loves the place and people! He comes home smelling delightful and absolutely exhausted after such a stimulating day. They have paddocks for walks but also do training, agility, brain games and relaxation. Bryony, Nick and team are amazing and the door to door service is so convenient! George has also used homestay for when I have travelled without him, they treat him as a member of the family which is so important to me. They provide updates and photos which eases some guilt as I see he is happy, healthy and well-cared for.
One of my dogs needs a lot of freedom to run. With so much land available she is in her element. The groups are selected with dogs that enjoy each other’s company. The games in the barn provide brain stimulation and exercise. All the staff are extremely caring and very professional with a lot of relevant experience. Having a door to door service is the icing on the cake, and you get regular updates on how your dog is doing. My girlie arrives home tired and very happy after the best days ever. Each session’s photos of all the dogs are on social media and it is great to see how much enjoyment and fun they have. I have worked in animal welfare for many years and can honestly say that Nick, Bry and all the staff are simply the best; taking extra care in the pandemic. Highly recommend in every respect 😍
I honestly can’t fault anything about these guys ! This place is miles above any other day care I have visited or experienced. If you want to send your dog to somewhere they will be truly cared for and looked after then this is the place ! Everything about this day care is 10/10! The outside fields and assault course , the indoor kennels , the on site grooming facilities,the daily handover at pickup ! Luna comes home clean , tired and clearly happy ! I really wouldn’t go else where :)
We entrusted Short Legs Dog Care to look after our Cavapoo Freddie on our wedding day and we were delighted with the entire service. Both Chris and Trish were lovely people and meticulous in their approach. On the day, Freddie warmed to Trish instantly - the freshly prepared roast chicken and promise of multiple walkies was never going to fail! Trish was punctual yet flexible and was very relaxed in meeting our needs to ensure we could enjoy our wedding to the maximum without any unnecessary worry. Thank you to both of you - would definitely recommend! Alex and Sorroka
What can we say about Chris she was absolutely amazing with our pup Polly on our wedding day. Polly is quite reactive and overexcited and Chris handled her perfectly throughout our day. We cannot reccomend Chris enough! Polly loved her 💕 …
Trish looked after our Cockapoo, Otis, throughout our wedding day. She was wonderful with him. He can be a little nervy and awkward but she took great care with him, did exactly what we asked and Otis had a new best friend by the end of the day. He even met up with Chris and another dog from a different wedding and just had the best time. Trish brought Otis along to our ceremony to be the ring bearer and to join in the wedding photos. She then took him back to our hotel that evening, made sure he was fed and settled. He was so happy and safe. It was totally perfect. We can't thank Trish and Chris enough. Joe & Jo xx
We cannot express how grateful we are to Chris for looking after Poppy on our big day. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. Chris was excellent from start to finish; pre-communication was great, we were fully informed of the process and pricing from the start, and Chris kindly arranged to meet Poppy beforehand to make sure we were comfortable with everything. On the day itself, Chris generously picked Poppy up from a family home and later took her to the venue, which took the transport hassle away from us (she also dropped Poppy back off after the wedding)! During the ceremony, Chris seamlessly blended in with the guests and made the entire experience totally stress free for us! Everyone loved having Poppy there, which wouldn't have been possible without you Chris, so THANK YOU! We wholeheartedly recommend Short Legs to anyone looking for a dog chaperone for their wedding. If you want your furry friend to celebrate your big day with you, and if you want to ensure they are in the best possible hands, then Short Legs is the way to go. Thank you for everything, Chris! <3
We cannot thank Chris from Short Legs Dog Care enough for the exceptional care she provided for our dogs, Pippin and Gruff, on our wedding day. Pippin and Gruff aren't usually fond of new people, but Chris is truly a dog whisperer. They quickly became best friends, which put us at ease knowing our fur babies were in such capable hands. Chris went above and beyond, helping us include Pippin and Gruff in our ceremony. Despite an unexpected downpour that disrupted our schedule, Chris ensured the dogs were brought down for photos at the reception, capturing beautiful moments we will cherish forever. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for dogs made a significant impact on our special day. We highly recommend Chris and Short Legs Dog Care to anyone looking for outstanding pet care services.
I couldn’t have asked for a better chaperone for my sometimes sassy / sometimes nervy Italian Greyhound. Chris had everything covered and was the calmest energy for both me (the Bride!) and Neddy the dog. From pick up, to the service, to the drop off the following day, Chris was the ultimate professional and Ned simply adored her. Thank you Chris for being such a special part of our day, ensuring that the real guest of honour was calm and happy throughout! Wouldn’t have been the same without you 😊
Thank you Chris & Trish! Trish looked after our Cavapoo for a full day for our wedding last month at Eastington park and honestly so pleased with the service! For peace of mind we knew our fur baby was being fully taken care of, she was our ring bearer so managed to be part of our big day but at the same time she had the space and attention she needed. Highly recommend, Thank you!
Chris is wonderful and I would highly recommend booking her! We asked Chris to look after our dog at home during our wedding day, and then pop over with them for photos in the afternoon. She was amazing throughout, great communication beforehand and so lovely too. She did an amazing job in making our dog (and us) feel relaxed and comfortable, and we could tell they'd had a lovely day together! Chris is a real pro; she is trustworthy, considerate, patient, and truly loves what she does. Thank you so much for everything Chris, it was such a special moment to be able to have wedding photos with our little fur baby and it wouldn't have been possible without you.
Chris looked after two of our dogs at the Matara Centre last month for our wedding. She was great every step of the way, from organising and communicating before the wedding about the various needs of our dogs and our expectations to how well she worked with Matara and our Photographer Lee Hawley. We couldn't have made a better decision choosing Chris to look after our dogs, she kept them relaxed and reacted to their needs which gave us one less issue to worry about on our big day! Would most definitely recommend her services!
We can’t thanks Chris enough for looking after our Milo on our big day. It was amazing to have him there with us and having Chris took the stress away for us and our guests. Communication was fab as Chris was always responsive. Milo also spent the night with Chris to allow us the freedom to enjoy the whole wedding! If you want your pup at your wedding, we would highly recommend Chris!
They were lovely people, Kept Ned safe and took him for lovely long walks. He had a massive doggy grin when we picked him up! I’d definitely recommend 😃 …
Chris has been extremely helpful with our Springer Spaniel Buddy. We’ve worked with him closely for a number of months and have made a ton of progress in lots of areas. Things were really difficult before we started working with Chris and it is a massive relief to be in a much better place now and have a lot of the negative behaviours under control. Chris was very professional and very effective. I am very grateful for the work he has done and could not recommend him more highly.
Chris has been doing training with me and Freddie for just over 2 months now. He is amazing with Freddie who gets so excited to see him each week! Chris really knows his stuff and is happy to adapt each session to whatever you need which has been great as we have worked on issues that have cropped up in a timely way. Would definitely recommend. Freddie is going to be joining Chris and Becs for doggy day care soon and we can’t wait as I know he will be in safe hands and have an absolute ball 😊
I have been having 1 2 1 sessions with Chris for my staffie pup. We got her at 8 weeks old and my older dog didn't take to her. I asked Chris for help when my pup turned 13 weeks and he has been amazing. My pup is now 20 weeks old and my 2 dogs get along brilliantly. Chris has showed me how to train my pup as well, she is coming on amazingly. He really is very good and knows his stuff. I highly recommend Chris if you need any help with training.
After making enquires to multiple dog trainers for our dog Henri, Chris was the most prompt to respond. Chris is a kind and approachable person who is instantly able to put you and your animal at ease. His training was suitable, adaptable and conducted in easy to follow lessons for both owner and animal. Nothing seemed to much to ask from Chris and he was always willing to be contacted at any time for advice after lessons. It is clear from the outset that Chris loves the job he does and it really shows.
Chris has been helping me and my dog Woody to overcome his separation anxiety and improve recall. I am very pleased with the results and Woody loves Chris. Chris has a lovely, calm manner and has been very flexible with session times and location. I would highly recommend.
I had 3 sessions with Chris and learnt that some of the issues were caused by me giving mixed signals to my puppy Indie. Chris has a really calm nature and positive approach. My main problem was with Indie and my 2 cats. Chris only got to meet Meggie but he could see how stressed out she was, my other cat mostly hides whilst Indie is around. It's still work in progress but I can now pick Meggie, and Bella up in front of Indie without her jumping and trying to grab them. Chris you'll be pleased to hear we had a breakthrough this morning, Meggie and Indie were both on the bed with me for a couple of hours. That's the 1st time in about 5 months, I was over the moon. We have continued to train and she's now playing fetch with only 1 ball and will drop it right at our feet. Chris you were a star and we can't thank you enough.
We were having issues with our dog Hari's anxiety and reactions around people. Chris spoke to me at length on the phone to find out Hari's background as a rescue and to assess how he could help. After just one session we were able to understand more about Hari's behaviour and implement some key learning to start making immediate progress. After a few more sessions with Chris we are thrilled to see Hari's confidence growing and having much less reaction. We've also decreased the "safety zone" as Hari is becoming more comfortable in closer proximity, in most cases. I just want to say a big thank you to Chris, for all of your help and advice, we couldn't have turned things around without your training. We feel so much more confident and in control, which obviously we know is helping Hari too.
Our Nicole absolutely loves her time in day care every week. Chris & Becs are lovely people and offer fantastic services. We had a 121 training course with Chris and he has patiently helped us get to the best solution. Also Bec's grooming is amazing and professional as well! Can't recommend enough!!!
We worked with Chris when we got our Puppy, Delilah. We did 6, 1-2-1 sessions with him where he helped us with lead walking, obedience training, separation anxiety, meeting/being socialised with other dogs and a lot of other things. Our puppy is now 16 weeks old and we get comments on how friendly and confident she is. I really don't think we could have managed this without Chris. So thanks, Chris!
We recently used Precious Paws for our cat and were really satisfied with the experience. Perdi is a true professional who adores cats. She gave us confidence that our cat would be well cared for. Upon picking our cat up, we could see that he was calm and happy, not at all stressed like he had been in the past in other catteries. The cabin was clean, spacious, with an outdoor secure space, and designed to make cats feel safe, comfortable and entertained. It even provided our cat a chance to make friends with one of the owner's cats, who is so sweet! Overall, we highly recommend Precious Paws to any cat owner looking for a reliable and caring place for their pet. The combination of professionalism and a stress-free atmosphere made all the difference for both us and our cat. Thank you, Perdi, for providing such exceptional care!
Absolutely fantastic. A few months ago, Perdi very kindly took care of my two cats for a few days when another cattery cancelled my booking without reason at short notice. I should have posted sooner - highly recommend.
Wonderful cat boarding experience for our two very pampered house cats. They stayed for a week in one of the lovely cat lodges and had a great time enjoying the Precious Paws facilities! Very organised and caring host who clearly adores animals so we knew our boys were in safe hands. Highly recommend.
So happy with the service at Precious Paws. Perdi is so caring and felt 100% confident leaving our Oriental boy with her. He has some health issues and Perdi is very experienced and knowledgeable with caring for his needs.We had regular updates and he settled so well. He had loads of cuddles and play. Very pleased to see how well and contented he was when we collected him.
Stunning service, trouble free and happy cats. Perdi looked after my cats for a week with morning and evening home visits, came back with stress free cats. I had regular pics and updates whilst I was away. Perdi is very experienced and has a lot of time and love for animals. Thank you! 😊 …
I highly recommend Perdi! She came once a day to our house to look after two of our cats and a house rabbit, and she also kept our more troublesome cat in her cat pen for 10 days. She sent daily updates and photos (at our request) and we were able to enjoy our holiday knowing that our pets were all being well looked after. She was very professional, with paperwork and a first meet beforehand. Thanks so much for everything!
Perdi did an outstanding job looking after our two cats. She clearly likes cats and followed all our complicated instructions perfectly. She also stayed in touch very well so we felt reassured that everything was fine at home while we were away. We would recommend Perdi's excellent service and intend to ask her to look after our cats again. It's hard to imagine how anyone could do a better job of looking after your much loved pets.
Excellent service for my old boy , he always seems calm and happy after perdis home visits . Reliable and trustworthy, would definitely recommend 🐈⬛ …
Perdi visited our rescue cats once a day for 10 days during our recent holiday. It was such a relief to know they were receiving such kind, reliable care. We were delighted with the professionalism of Perdi's approach, she is very thorough and very practical! A very safe, reliable pet sitting service which we will be booking again and recommending to our friends! Perdi also kept my many plants alive and well and collected the post. We returned to a calm and happy home. Thank you Perdi.
We have trusted Perdi with our two cats many times now. She is a very friendly person, always willing to make it work for you and always available at late notice! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a real pet lover to put their mind at ease whilst they are away.
Our dog has so much fun here, she is so excited she squeaks when we turn into the entrance and can't wait to see her friends. Lorraine and all the staff are friendly and very helpful. Plenty of mental and physical exertion means she is ready for a quiet night when we pick her up. Lots of training practice has helped the fluffy one pick up instructions quickly with us at home as well. The report cards are a great touch as well as the social media updates. I would highly recommend Pawprints to anyone. With our hybrid working it means we can go into the office when we need to and our pup gets plenty of socialisation. The flexibility is perfect for us as we can change days easily with the option of half days if needed.
We have used Pawprints for nearly 5 years and each morning Millie is so excited to arrive. The team excels in care, attention, communication and the stimulation and fun Millie craves. Such a wonderful local, well run and maintained business that has our full support.
Our dog absolutely loves coming to Pawprints, he always has a fab time, he comes home worn out, and the staff are wonderful, very friendly and really care about our dog. I also love seeing the photos taken of him having a fab time ❤ I would definitely recommend Pawprints to anyone, shout out to Jack & Tegan who Ruben adores ❤❤🐾🐾 …
We absolutely love Pawprints. Our dog has been going there since she was only a few months old and years on she is still so excited every time she arrives there! The staff are really lovely and really seem to care about the dogs and providing them with enrichment. We love seeing the photos of all the activities our dog gets up to. Her favourites are the scent games, the agility and parkour, and the tricks/training sessions. Another big draw for us is Pawprints’ amazing outdoor space and the amount of time that the dogs get to spend outside playing and socialising together. We definitely leave each day after drop off with peace of mind knowing our dog will be well looked after. We highly recommend Pawprints if you’re looking for a daycare for your dog.
My dog loves Pawprints. The team are so loving and attentive, they care for him and really get to know him. I feel very comfortable leaving him with the team as I know he will be fantastically looked after. Their outdoor space and mix of dogs is so important to enable him to learn how to behave around others, have quality play and training.
I can’t recommend pawprints daycare enough. We started taking our puppy there as soon as she had all of her vaccines. Originally, daycare was required due to job commitment - we picked pawprints because of the location, it is was 15 minutes from where I worked - which was 40 minutes from myself. Since then, I have changed roles and I am no longer required to drive to Cheltenham - however, we haven’t taken our puppy out of daycare due to the following reasons; - great socialising - the team post videos/ pictures throughout the day which are always filled with joy - the service - she never wants to leave; she pulls back to the daycare when I collect her If you’re looking for a great quality daycare service or just an action packed day for your dog/ puppy. This is the right right place!
Pawprints is such a wonderful place for our dog. He runs in there in the mornings so eager to get in. The staff are friendly and caring and really take the time to get to know the dogs and their individual needs. Our dog is stimulated, loved and comes home having learned a few new tricks. I would highly recommend Pawprints.
Fantastic doggy day care, all of the staff are friendly and lovely. Our pup loves going to Paw Prints, from his trial morning to his full days, he’s so well looked after and has the best time! Absolutely recommend!
My dog has been going to Pawprints since he was 12 weeks old, which is almost 7 years - he has the absolute best time every single day, and the Pawprints team are incredible! It is such a weight lifted off of my shoulders knowing that he’s being loved and looked after for the whole of my working day. I would be lost without Pawprints, and I’m so grateful that my boy gets to have so much fun and love daily whilst I can’t be with him. Have always highly recommended, and honestly wouldn’t consider ever going anywhere else - the people and the pups are everything I want for my boy to be around, and more.
The team at Pawprints are fabulous. Our rescue dog has been going for well over a year now and started off very scared of everyone but now it’s the highlight of her week. From the moment I drop her off to when I pick her up I know she is in safe hands being well looked after and enjoying herself. Her day is a mix of playing, games, rest and training which means she always comes home tired, fulfilled and happy. The regular updates and pictures posted on Facebook make my day as I know she’s having a great time!
The We Love Pets team have been walking my two border terriers for the past 7 years, more recently adding my Whippet puppy to the crew! Over 7 years Claire & her team have got to know my dogs really well, understanding the dogs quirks, especially as they are getting older, adapting especially as their needs have changed. Our current walker has been walking the dogs for a while now, including the whippet baby! The dogs love her she loves & cares for them, they’re always delighted to see her and enjoy their walks. She looks out for their welfare & notices when something is not quite right. More recently we have been using the home boarding services, this is a really welcome service where I don’t want my elderly dogs staying in kennel, I also like the fact that there is someone in the house. I feel I can go away on business or holiday and know that my dogs and home being in safe hands with a totally trustworthy team who keep me up to date with what’s going on at home! We Love Pets offer an incredible personal service with a loving touch for your pets, I would highly recommend them.
There are not many people who are brave enough to look after three boisterous weimaraners, but Claire has welcomed this wholeheartedly! My dogs absolutely love Claire, and can’t wait for their cuddles. She is so attentive to their individual needs, and she spends lots of time with them in the garden and making sure that everything is operating just right. Claire also looks after my house with the dogs in it, rather than us worrying about kennels or having to take them to someone else’s house, which provides us with so much confidence. I have no hesitation recommending Claire to anyone thinking about using her company for dog-sitting and walking services. ❤️
Great service from WLP Cirencester, they really look after our dog and treat her like they would their own pet, she clearly loves her walks with them. Claire is very flexible to the dogs needs and provides piece of mind that she is being properly cared for.
I have been using Claire for quite a while now and she is the most reliable and professional business I’ve ever used! Really struggled to find reliable people in Cirencester. Genuine care towards my dog (who’s a chihuahua and doesn’t always enjoy going out) 100% reliability and lots of care and compassion towards my pooch. Highly recommend :)- Sophie &Bunny 🐾
Claire and her team provide a fantastic service. When I first met Claire back in February, she took the time to get to know me and my family and the needs of our pets. She has tailored her service to meet our needs perfectly. Her and her team have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure our pet is looked after with love and care. I have complete faith and trust and can rest easy knowing that our pet is going to be well looked after. I would highly recommend you reach out to Claire and use her services. A VERY happy customer!
Claire and her team are flexible and very friendly and they are extremely reliable. We are very happy with the service they are providing for our dog Dotty.
Claire is a fab dog walker, takes the time to get to know both the family and their pets. By understanding the needs and requirements of the dogs she’s able to plan and execute wonderful walks either alone of with a buddy. When odd occasions arise and she’s unable to attend, a friendly colleague is always on hand. Never out of the blue as she ensures that the customer has previously met the colleague beforehand. Our collie has grown very fond of her and always looks forward to his next adventure! I would recommend Claire as she is fully insured and background checked. Also for her expertise and walk rate is very competitive.
We would highly recommend Claire if you are looking for someone to look after your cats whilst you are away. Her love of animals shines through and she spends time with you to find out about your pets’ characters and any special needs. It is so reassuring to be able to go away now and know how well our girls are being looked after in their own home, which is so much less stressful than going to a cattery. And it’s great to receive a message from Claire after each visit to reassure us that all is well with them. Thank you so much Claire, we wish we had found you years ago!
We have been using We Love Pets Cirencester for a few years now. I can't recommend them highly enough. They are great. Completely reliable and ensure our pets get their usual pettings as well as food and the basics. When our travel plans changed unexpectedly they were able to add us to their busy schedule. I can trust them with our animals and that is a real compliment .
Claire has such a lovely natural friendly approach with animals. Our dogs love her. Would recommend her 100%
We recently booked our dogs in with BJ’s as we are going away for Christmas. We unfortunately lost one of our dogs a couple of weeks ago, it was completely unexpected. It was so difficult phoning around and notifying her insurance company, pet plan company and BJ’s but the person I spoke to at BJ’s was amazing! He was lovely to speak to, so understanding and got my bookings changed straight away. Today we received a card from all the staff expressing their sadness for the loss of Lola, we weren’t expecting this but it was so nice to receive. We haven’t even used BJ’s yet but can see what an amazing and caring bunch they all are
First time back today for doggy day care in around 7months. They have been very patient with me and my 99,000 questions and concerns as he’s always a nervous puppy in new situations. They have been brilliant and my springer spaniel goblin seems to have had his batteries depleted - even his back up reserve pack. We will defo be coming back. Thank you to all the staff looking after my boy. A Personal shout out to Dave who faced my non stop day of questions. You’ve been great and really set my mind at rest. Thank you team Blaze and Lily.
We brought our three cats to BJ's after we were fb flooded out of our home and had to wait for temporary accommodation. The staff are super friendly and helpful and I was thrilled to see how happy Alfie, Babybea and JJ were after their stay. They have settled into our temporary home really well. I have no hesitation in recommending BJ's and I would definitely use again if we go away on holiday.
Amazing kennels, Sid loves going for his holidays there. The staff are fabulous, they understand our boy, and really look after him. Thank you for all you do
Its always a 5 star experience with BJ Pet Resort! I have a Sprocker and a GSD, both love going into day care, playing with the other dogs and being treated like royalty by the members of staff! The facilities are great and always kept to a very high standard. I wouldn't leave my dogs anywhere else, you can tell the staff here have a real passion for their job and pride themselves on giving the animals the best experience!
First time using bjs and my dog was very happy leaving me and coming out, he got to have 2 lovely swims while he was there. Will be booking again when we go away.
We had to leave our dog on kennels whilst on holiday, something we find hard as he's very much part of the family. To be honest our pooch is a bit pampered and we keep him clean and well groomed. We took him to meet the staff and have a look around, something they openly advertise and it's true, the professionalism and care of the dogs is evident the moment you set foot in the kennels. Knowing that your dog is looked after with heating and air conditioning to make his stay comfortable really helps you to stop worrying, and we took up the chance to give him a couple of agility sessions to make sure he didn't get bored. On picking him up, we where delighted to see they'd kept him clean and groomed and had taken the trouble to even spray him with the nice puppy spray which he is used to. One aspect worth praising the staff for is they really supported and encouraged us to bring the dog in with all his usual bedding and toys, and offered to abide by his normal feeding habits, I can't say for sure they would have followed our long list of daily habits including the two gravy bones he normally gets to settle him when going to bed, but I got the impression they really did care, so can only imagine our little boy settled in with them very quickly. He had no signs of stress when we picked him up and I like that the owner prides himself of animal welfare, definitely worth that little extra and will most certainly use them again. They posted a picture of Charlie enjoying himself having an agility session which is always nice to put us at ease that he was also having a mini holiday!
We came across BJs pet resort by accident after driving past their premises. After some research, we decided to contact them and we are so very pleased we did. We absolutely love this doggy daycare but most importantly our dog loves it! The staff were incredibly caring towards our dog from the moment he arrived, and they created a safe and fun environment for him for his day with them! The facility is clean, and I appreciated the daily updates and photos they provided. Our pup came home happy and tired, and it's evident they prioritised the well-being of each dog in their care. We cannot thank all the staff enough for caring and playing with our pooch. We highly recommended and will be using them again
Thank you for taking care of my Gigi, she is having fun here. The facilities are clean and safe, all staff are lovely, polite and professional and I really appreciate they keep uploading photos in facebook so that I can check my dog’s condition. I feel satisfied with their boarding service and highly recommended to my friends
Always a five star experience. Dropped dog off for his holidays, they make sure both he and we are happy. They aways say he's been a really good boy... not always sure he will have been! Our stubborn little Westie. But we are grateful for the care they give. Would not take him anywhere else. 12 years so far.
When I met with Melanie last summer to chat about daycare for our puppy, Waffle, I was immediately incredibly impressed as I was a very nervous new puppy mum! Melanie’s love for dogs is so clear to see and she has a wealth of experience. She immediately won my heart and I knew that Waffle would be safe, secure, stimulated and most importantly loved while I’m at work. I was right and Waffle absolutely loves her time with Melanie and her doggy pals! Melanie is just brilliant 🤩 and I recommend her wholeheartedly 💛🐾
Melanie has been looking after my puppy for the last three months and she has been everything I could have wished for and more. My pup comes home tired from a long day of fun, and can’t wait to be back, often not wanting to leave! Having quite an irregular work pattern and sometimes needing short notice care, Melanie has always been so accommodating and flexible which has been invaluable. It is reassuring to know that my pup is getting top quality care and being well socialised. I trust Melanie completely and I am very happy knowing he is being so well looked after. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you Melanie.
Melanie was a God send for me. Having a puppy and a job at the same time is not easy to manage. She made it easy for me. Melanie is kind and professional, and my young puppy Henry has had a great time going to hers. He was super happy to go each day and came home exhausted from a happy day of play each time. I would not hesitate to recommend Melanie to anyone needing happy, fun, professional and caring support for their puppy. Thanks so much Melanie.
Dougal has been going to Melanie's for about 4 years now. He goes for day care once or twice a week and also for his holidays (!) Dougal is always greeted by Melanie with a big smile and he loves to lay on his back and have his tummy tickled when he is dropped off. A day at Melanie's is filled with lovely long walks (even on cold, wet, windy days - that's dedication from Melanie !) cuddles and plenty of playtime. What could be better ! I trust Melanie 100pc. In the last few years when the weather has been unbearably hot during the summer months, Melanie made sure that the dogs were kept safe from the dangers of overheating. Each dog was provided with a cooling coat - and the pooches were even treated to a paddling pool and gazebo in the garden - amazing ! Melanie is just brilliant, the best really. Always reliable, incredibly helpful and very knowledgeable. Nothing is ever too much trouble. We are incredibly lucky to have found her. Dougal comes home exhausted but oh so happy !
I have had Melanie look after My retriever several times and each time, he’s come away happy, tired and content! He got extremely excited each time he caught sight of her and I could not recommend this lady enough. Your loved one and fur baby will thank you from the bottom of its paws 🐾 100% recommend. She is well trained, knowledgeable, professional and safe. Thank you Melanie.
My two lively dogs have stayed with Melanie on a few occasions and have been very happy and most of all had a lot of love and attention. Melanie is very caring and obviously very happy in her work. Looking forward to when we can next have a holiday as well as Ziva and Rascal.
Unreservedly recommended! Friendly, helpful, accommodating. Melanie goes out of her way to help - with advice, when you're in need, to make sure all dogs are safe and very well-cared for.. you name it. My dog is unbelievably happy with our 'best friend' - everything you could hope for; could not ask for more!
Melanie is fantastic! The boys love her so much. It’s so reassuring to know the boys are happy when we go away and Melanie sends regular updates and photos which is hugely appreciated. I’d highly recommend Melanie!
Melanie is a fantastic lady. I don't know what I would do without her. ..I only have to say her name to my dogs and they are at the door looking for her. Crying out for her!! I come home too see they are happy and tired out. Thank you Melanie
Thank you! We just love all our gorgeous pups and they have such fun with their best friends here.
Helen and the team are amazing! Our dog is loved and treated so well by the team. We trust them with the safety and enjoyment of our dog and he really doesn't want to come back home he enjoys it that much.
Amazing - my dog comes home tired but not too tired and his pulling on the lead has reduced so much as he is getting the socialisation he had been craving. Love the team, super friendly and Helen really knows her stuff which is a massive bonus. Such a fab location for the dogs to play in
My rescue dog was extremely nervous and Helen is brilliant with him and now our new rescue puppy, who is the opposite, super confident. She trains us owners as well as the dogs, and I think she is a dog whisperer !! We only needed a few lessons, but still go for socialisation and talk to Helen about any issues. Highly recommended
Helen is professional and really looks after the dogs. Buddy is always wagging his tail when we pull up in the morning.
Lovely setting, plenty of long walks for the dogs, top class care by highly qualified and experienced staff.
Very impressed with Helen.she gave us exactly the help we needed. I have already recommended her.🤗🤗🤗 …
Helen is great really helped us with behaviour issues 👍 highly recommended …
Our dog loves it here. Excellent in every way
Wouldn't trust my dogs with anyone else
Fantastic buddy loves it 😀 …
When I was let down a week before my holiday, I contacted Sit Stay! Animal Care with little hope but I had a helpful reply straight away. Chris is accommodating and caring and I can't praise her highly enough. We met up a couple of days later and my dog took to her straight away. I was so relieved to leave Lucy with such a kind and competent person and the almost daily texts and emails meant I didn't have to worry at all during my holiday. Nothing was too much trouble and I would thoroughly recommend her.
I was injured recently and so was unable to look after my mare properly. I was passed Chris' details by another livery on my yard who had used her when she went on holiday and recommended her to me. Chris was absolutely amazing and, due to the unexpected circumstances and urgency for help, she came out to visit me and my mare the very same day that I contacted her. I was reassured by her calm nature and easy going personality. My mare, who can be a bit of a handful, also took to her and was relaxed throughout the week or so that Chris helped me. Chris is punctual, tidy, confident with horses and very reasonably priced. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris and would definitely use her again in the future.
I have 5 dogs as well as chickens to care for, and have used Mrs Day's pet/house sitting service on many occasions both to live in and for short daily visits. I have complete confidence in her and know I simply 'leave her to get on with' whatever needs doing. Her animal care is exemplary, she is reliable, confident and caring, putting the needs of her charges first. She is always ready to help and has a 'can do' approach stepping in at very short when asked. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
Chris is a genuine lovely lady and done fantastic job not just looking after our 3 cats but also our home while we was on holiday, she even sent us emails just saying how it was going which gave us such peace of mind. She even had no quibbles over having to administer medication to one of my cats. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use again.
I can't rate the service Chris provides highly enough. Our animals love her! She is extremely reliable and takes the trouble to get to know your pets and individual requirements before her first stay. Our two dogs have very different needs: one a good long walk and the other, due to old age, a quick game of ball on the field opposite our house. This can be time consuming but Chris, anxious to maintain the dogs' regular routines, is happy to oblige. She's a considerate house guest too. (Mindful of how much washing holidays generate, she offered to bring a sleeping bag for a short stay.) Pet care when away used to be a real worry for us - often meaning we couldn't make family functions - but, happily, this is no longer the case.
Totally reliable and absolutely brilliant with all our assorted animals we cannot recommend Chris highly enough. It is such a relief to know that we are able to go away and we do not need to worry about them or indeed the house and garden...her service is invaluable... Happy owners of chickens,ducks,kune kune pigs, pygmy goats, two dogs and one cat! Alisoun and Alec Bilous.
Very reliable and flexible pet sitters. Our family have been using them for holiday coverage for many years.
