Beth and Matthew have been my first house sitters - and I was their first house sit too. Beth and Matthew have been great. I was a little nervous as this was the first time I've the zeewoi platform and service. Beth contacted me to let me know that one of my dogs had a sore on her chest and sent me a video to let me see and decide what to do. We agreed my dog needed to be seen by a vet and within a few hours my dog had antibiotics. Beth even popped into a shop to buy my dog a jumper to wear as the vet had recommended this to stop her scratching the sore. When I got home Beth had washed all their bedding and the house was clean and tidy. Both Beth and Matthew are a lovely couple and I would definitely recommend them both if you are looking for reliable and trustworthy house and pet sitters.
Erica was great! Easy to communicate with and very self -sufficient when we ended up being out of service for several days. Pingo and the house were clearly in good hands, we came back to a spotless house with a freshly made bed and a happy dog. We'd definitely have Erica again!
I am so grateful to Victoria for taking such wonderful care of my elder cats,, Zoe and Mischief, my home and my garden! She stayed in touch, and even sent photos of Zoe and Mischief, which further reassured me that my kitties and my home were in good hands while I was away. In short, I feel lucky to have connected with Victoria through zeewoi, wouldn't hesitate to call on her again, and recommend her without reservation.
This was my first time using zeewoi. Not only did I have to prepare my home for a guest but prepare myself for leaving my boys with someone I had only met through a zoom call. Right away, I was put at ease as Sharon just gravitated right to my boys. She asked questions about info that I had missed in my welcome pack that made me rest assured that she was on the ball. Throughout my trip, Sharon kept in touch with me about how the boys were getting along... I was so relieved hearing that their usual playful selves was apparent. Given that our flight home was going to be late, she insisted on waiting until we were heading out of the airport before leaving the boys with their last walk until we came home. When we walked through our front door, the boys were chilling out, our home was spotless, and she even washed the bedding. I can recommend Sharon with 100% certainty that your pets will be in great hands. Thanks Sharon for everything.
Jaclyn was a wonderful sitter for our dog Tucker! She was always quick to respond to communications, she was easy-going and excited to sit with Tucker, she shared updates (with pictures) while we were away, and she left our house cleaner than when we left - she even ran the dishwasher, which we forgot to do before we left! She and Tucker bonded immediately, and when we returned home it was clear that he had a great time with Jaclyn. We can't recommend her highly enough!
I can’t say enough good things about Felicia! She was willing to come over ahead of time so we could meet her. Lele took an instant liking to her (and I think it was mutual).😁 Felicia showed up on time, checked in on a regular basis while I was away, and sent photos of Lele, too. I tend to over prepare, and Felicia was accepting of that and helped me feel okay about my preparation and absence. I felt very comfortable leaving, knowing the most important thing, Lele, was well taken care of. This is my first time using zeewoi, so I didn’t really know what to expect. Felicia far exceeded all of my hopes and expectations. I would absolutely love to have Felicia come back again!
I am so glad that my cat, Duque, and I met Sharon! She is a wonderful person, very kind with pets, thorough with house care and communicative. Sharon's cleaning (and brownies!) went above and beyond and my cat did not seem to have missed me much when I got home. I recommend Sharon if she applies for your sit and we hope to welcome her back to our home one day.
Julie and Adrian were ideal pet and house sitters. Julie and Damian are very friendly and made sure to go over details and ask questions when they arrived. We came home to very happy and contented pets. Our dog and cat clearly got lots of love and attention (also clear from the great photos that Julie and Adrian sent us). The house was immaculate when we came home. We could not ask for better, more trusted, house sitters.
Although they are experienced pet sitters this was their first sit with zeewoi and they were wonderful. Jyoti (our cat) was completely at ease and spent plenty of time on their laps. The chickens were well looked after and they managed the broody one efficiently. Excellent communication before and during the house sit. They followed our detailed instructions conscientiously and left the house clean and tidy. They cooked a meal for us on our return and we enjoyed getting to know them. We would welcome them back any time and highly recommend them for future sits.
Lea was so wonderful, we highly recommend her. She was friendly and communicative throughout, sending us daily updates and photos. We returned back to a beautifully cleaned house and a very happy cat, we are so grateful- she was an absolute delight

Ollie, adores Bob, he’s always very excited when the van pulls up. Bob, is amazing with Ollie, and he has got much better with his recall since going out with Bob. The daily videos are a favourite, it’s so great to be able to see all the doggy’s running and playing. Ollie, has also made some amazing friends on his walks and even exchanges Christmas cards, the quality of care provided is excellent I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend ‘Doggy days of Berkeley’ .
Bob has been fantastic feeding our cat over Christmas and New year, he's very professional and reassuring and goes above and beyond with last minute bookings too. Bob spends the whole time as stated and is happy to give medication and care routines where needed. Great value for money, great communication and a friendly trustworthy person to have around your animals and in the house. We will be using Bob everytime we go away now and will be reccomending him to everyone. Thank you for looking after Alfie.
Our dog has been absolutely loving his walks with Bob and the gang. Not only does he get to stretch his legs and burn some energy, but he's also been able to socialise and be comfortable and confident around others dogs to. I would highly recommend Bob he is always friendly and our dog absolutely loves him!
Bob is very friendly, reliable, trustworthy and flexible and has helped us out on many occasions whether it be dog walking or advice. Bob very clearly cares a lot for the dogs he walks. Our dog can't wait til Bob comes to collect him for his walk and is always excited to see Bob out in Berkeley! We really value the help Bob gives us and would 100% recommend to other dog owners.
Great dog walking service! Very well priced, reliable, easy booking/payment system, and, you can see Bob is genuinely passionate about animals which is very reassuring as a pet owner. Our dog loves his walks and visits! If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy to walk or care for your pet in Berkeley - Bob is definitely your man!
My dog Nora loves Bob and can’t wait for her walks with him. The group walks have helped to socialise with other dogs. She also walks beautifully on lead for bob, but not for me. Bob works with Margaret who covers overnight dog care, it is amazing to go on holiday and know Nora is happy loved and well cared for while I’m away.
Bob has been walking our beloved family dogs for many years. He is incredibly caring, trustworthy and reliable. Our current dog Stan absolutely adores his walks with Bob and meeting up for a good runaround with his other doggy pals. Bob goes above and beyond by emailing us a daily video montage of Stan’s walks so we can clearly see how much fun he is having and the care Bob takes of him. Thank you for all you do Bob so that I know that Stan is in good hands whilst I’m at work.
Bob provides an excellent service. He is reliable and trustworthy and flexible, helping out with sometimes last minute difficult work schedules. Our dogs love going out with Bob and always come back for a long sleep, quite happy and content. I would highly recommend.
We’ve used Bob and Doggy Days since our pup was a pup (nearly 6 years ago). Barkley the Sausage adores Bob and loves going on the group walks. Yapping and spinning like crazy whenever Bob comes to collect him. Doggy days has never let us down, always accommodating our schedule as needed and always communicating when walks are. Can’t recommend Bob enough, friendly, reliable and great with dogs. You’re in great and reliable hands 🐾 🐶
Bob provided a professional dog walking service for my dog for three years until I was able to retire. She was so happy in his care that she still squeals with delight and rushes to meet him when we bump into him out and about. Dogs love their walks with him and meeting up with their doggy pals. He matches dogs for walks by temperament and physical energy, so it is a good opportunity for them to socialise with each other. He is very reliable and punctual and the service is supported by a professional online administration system for booking and invoices. At the end of the day, you will receive a video so you can see for yourself what a happy time your dog is having and how well they are behaving ( without you) Happy Doggy Days!
My dog, Dolly, has stayed with Irene and Peter three times now. They clearly both love dogs and I am confident that they look after her well. They asked lots of questions about Dolly’s needs and routines so they could give her the best experience. Dolly was so excited to see Peter at the start of her most recent stay, and wasn’t bothered about me leaving, which is very reassuring. The most recent stay was for 13 nights, which is the longest I have ever left her and they regularly sent me videos and photos. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their dog cared for in a home environment.
We would highly recommend Peter and Irene to anyone needing holiday boarding and walking for their dogs. Our 2 dogs, Mabel and George recently stayed with them for 2 weeks and had a wonderful time. It was so reassuring to know they were being so well looked after, we could relax and enjoy our holiday. We received daily videos of the 2 of them on walks and enjoying time at home and also having fun with other daycare dogs. Peter and Irene spent time listening to everything we wanted them to know about our dogs and took everything on board regarding their individual needs, a fantastic experience and Mabel and George seem quite sad to be back home in their normal routine!
I was lucky enough to find Berkley Home Boarding & Pet Care a few months ago. I have a 4 year old cockapoo that was born during the Covid lockdown. He is very shy and needs lots of reassurance and love. Pre-Covid my husband and I had travelled extensively. We had a Yorkshire terrier called Archie who has been looked after for 16 years by a lovely lady who retired during Covid. My older dog sadly passed away in September 23. We had decided to resume our holidays but were really worried about who would look after Buster during our trips away. I looked at many options for 6 months until I found Irene and Peter. From the initial first call with Peter and then my first visit to discuss Buster and his needs I knew I had found the right people to look after Buster and to love him as we do. Buster did 2 day and over night visits to ensure he was ok and to make sure Irene and Peter were happy to look after him. The relationships built quickly and then we left Buster for two weeks whilst we went on a holiday. Both my husband and myself were worried as we set off for our trip. Irene and Peter are thorough in finding out about your dog and keep notes on their daily routines. A visit to the vet was needed and this was organised by Peter. We received videos and photographs daily and it was clear for us to see Buster had settled and was having fun on his daily walks. It was also good for Buster to spend time with other dogs that Irene and Peter were looking after in the day. In todays world it is hard to find many people who take a pride in their work and who want to deliver a good service. I struck the jackpot when I found Irene and Peter as they do care and it is clear to see they are very professional in dog care. Buster already treats their home as his own and they have even built him a little table with a bed on to lie on and look out of the window whilst Irene works. I now plan to book Buster in for day care once a fortnight to assist him with socialising better. I have also booked two more big holidays in the next year already. I would not hesitate to recommend Irene and Peter to look after your dog/s, Jackie
Berkeley Boarding and Pet Care are wonderful, i wouldn't leave my little dog with any other boarding company. Both Peter and Irene have made every stay with them full of fun and love and my dog is very happy to go there every time. they take the time to understand the needs and preferences of each dog and offer an incredible level of flexibility. The peace of mind this gives me is the sole reason i can go on any holidays, knowing they will care for my precious companion to the same standard as i do. I can wholeheartedly recommend them.
Irene and Peter have been looking after our cat for around a year now. They come over for half an hour a day whilst we are away on holidays or visiting family and we couldn't be happier with the service they provide. They're lovely with Esther and we never worry about her. Also, as a bonus, usually the room with all the cat things in is cleaner than when we left! I wouldn't hesitate recommend them, they will definitely keep your pets well looked after and they are both lovely people too.
We felt Bella was in very safe hands. Irene and Peter really care about getting the right dogs that will mix well and looking after them as they would be at home. Our Bella loved going there - and was straining at the lead to go in through the front door! What more can you say! Thank you
We have used Berkeley Boarding 3 times now. Our Cocker Spaniel Archie absolutely love Irene and Peter - he has the best time, which we can see in the daily video and photos that they send us. It’s his own little holiday, and a home from home for him. We could not imagine taking him anywhere else now. Thank you for looking after him so beautifully x
Our two dogs are rescue so can be anxious in unfamiliar situations. One is a springer/pointer cross, full of energy and into everything so not always the easiest to handle. However, I needn't have worried about him as he and Peter were the best of friends by the end of the holiday. We'd be very happy to recommend Irene and Peter to look after your dog.
Peter and Irene are such wonderful animal lovers. They have become Daisy’s extended family. I’m sure she misses them when we bring her home. The care and love they give to the dogs they look after is priceless. We adore our dog and I can relax completely when she’s with them. I feel so lucky we found them.
Irene and Peter gave purdie an amazing holiday experience, having never left her with anyone before she settled in so well, she had to be encouraged to come home with me! They kept in touch by sending lots of photos or videos of purdie having lovely walks and visits to the pub, she’s stayed with them twice now and I have no hesitation of leaving her with them again.
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 😀 …
Carol and her team go above and beyond to give our two boys love and care every time we’re away. Blaze and Bandit are over the moon to visit and we can tell they have the best time. Carol and her team have also gone above and beyond so many times for us too, squeezing our dogs in at the 11th hour when my dad went into hospital and we had to leave last minute. Everyone at Carols have been so incredibly supportive, kind and caring of us and our boys through Dads illness and we couldn’t be more grateful to them for the love and kindness they have shown us and our boys. If I could give 10 stars, I would! Thank you so so much Carol and your lovely team. You and what you do mean the world to us.
For our 2 dogs this was their first experience of kennels and I’m so glad we found Carol’s. Such a friendly, welcoming establishment where the staff really care for their visitors - we will definitely be staying again
My dog loves it here! Such a lovely countryside location, it’s like a dog holiday camp. The staff are great and I always feel sure my dog is going to be well looked after, it’s a huge weight off my mind when leaving him.
Our Beagle loves it there. We'll looked after and friendly staff. Great setting for them to play in as well.
Our dog Reggie loves Carol's! I love the way they speak about him and say they are looking forward to him coming for a holiday! He loves all the ladies there! Great kennels and great service!
Great experience from start to finish..My Staffy Star's first time using Carol's Kennels in August was so nervous because it was his first time in kennels but he loved it and loved being spoilt rotten. They update you also with pictures ect :)) he will definitely be returning for a visit x
Left Charlie there for a few days. He Seemed OK and very happy to use them again later on!! Very lovely setting and convenient to get to.
Jack has spent 2 days at Carol’s Kennels, he told me that he can’t wait to go back, he loved his visit
We left our Bulldog Chester here whilst we went away for 10 days in August. We were quite anxious as he’s never been to a kennels before and the weather was very hot, Something that Chester struggles with. Luckily we were reassured with messages and photos from the lovely staff and we found them all to be extremely friendly. Chester seemed to have a great time and came home in great condition with the staff going above and beyond to tend to him. We wouldn’t hesitate to send him for a holiday again here.
My dog loves this place! He always wants to go back in! He never smells of kennels when he comes home and they always have plenty of treats. Dogs that are friendly, neutered and vaccinated can run around in the orchard and food is included in the price which is reasonable.
Had an emergency situation and needed to get our dog into a kennels with no notice. Bassett Court had availability and were able to take our girl in for the night. We were worried about leaving her as she’s a rescue and didn’t cope well in the kennels at the rescue centre but when we came to collect her we were pleasantly surprised. She’s normally nervous of new people but was making sure to get a belly from them all. They were all so lovely and made her so comfortable, even walking her before we arrived the next day. We will definitely be booking with them in future 🐶
Very friendly place with plenty of room for your dog to walk about in their big play pens
Great Place for your furry friends. Well looked after!
I have know Becky and Pad for 30+ years. They are passionate about their kennels, superb animal welfare and great care and affection. Your dog(s) are in very safe hands.
Amber came back me Monday after two weeks just happy so clean bedding spotless she will be back again fabulous care given thank you paddy and Becky for all of this for her we’re just delighted would recommend to all five stars X
Visited Becky and the Kennels, with a view to Milo going there for his holiday, so pleased we did, couldn't be happier, wonderful place, needless to say, Milo is now all booked in, thank you Becky :) 5 ☆☆☆☆☆
Kind, friendly and caring team. Our dog had a fabulous time and came home having clearly enjoyed her holiday.
My dog, who is terrified of men, loves it here & follows Paddy round like a shadow. Ive tried a couple of other kennels but he's definitely happiest here.
Dogs have always come back happy. That means a lot to me
Looked after our dog for a weekend and dealt with all his anxiety with care.
Best dog walking service and overnight stay for miles (in my experience). Alfie absolutely loves his walks and playing with other four legged furry friends. He's also treated as one of the family. I would highly recommend. 😁
Great people and lovely place. My dog is always happy and treated like one of the family. So grateful to them for the care they give and highly recommend!
Contacted in January to book my dog to stay with Forest Paws in June, was told we would need a couple of days to stay there previously to settle him in. ONE WEEK before we were due to leave for our holiday she tells me she can no longer look after my dog because he cried through the night. No apology or remorse whatsoever. If you don't like dogs crying because they're away from home you shouldn't be in the business. I had to pay £20 for the privilege of being turned away at the 11th hour and she didn't even thank me for that, am now left desperately trying to find a kennel at peak season and if I can't I've lost hundreds on a holiday I won't be able to go on. She even admitted in hindsight she should have dealt with things sooner to avoid letting me down. Shouldn't be in business, rude and unprofessional. Avoid.
mr puggles loves his walks at forest paws... xx
Excellent service my dog loves going there 😎 …
100% recommended
Brilliant kennels My my german shepherds love it there and walk away from me without looking back. They are so happy there. I would go to this kennels regularly.
My two girls went here for the Christmas period whilst I went away to visit family. No communication regarding updates on my girls after messaging them on numerous occasions. Both girls came back dangerously thin which involved me having to contact my vets for them to be put on supplements to help with their weight gain. Their bed and new Christmas toys and them came back smelling damp along with their harnesses. When I messaged them to say I wasn’t happy with how my girls had been taken care of I got a message saying they were lively with them! And two photos of them on a walk blurry. I do not recommend and will never send my girls here ever again. Personally I would avoid precious pets.
People there were very friendly and helpful when booking for our dogs to stay, when collecting the dogs from their stay, the people who brought them out were friendly, the dogs both looked so happy, and all in all I think they enjoyed their stay! Would highly recommend precious pets for anyone thinking of putting their dogs into boarding!
I'm not really sure how I should review precious pets. The communication prior to my dogs going was amazing. My dogs stayed only 3 days in the kennels as i collected them early due to coming off holiday earlier than expected. I phoned a few times whilst away and was told both dogs were settled and eating and drinking well. On getting home with my dogs I realised one was peeing very frequently...crying to go outside very few minutes but hardly going and then also noticed she was peeing blood. ...an emergency visit to the vet then be diagnosed with a urine infection which she is now on antibiotics and anti inflammatory probably due to not drinking much. I am no way blaming the staff at precious pets as it must be hard to monitor especially when both my dogs shared a kennel. I just wish if something was noticed then I was told. I think a way the service could be improved is maybe If there was an option for photo updates when the dogs were out on their walks or even a live webcam to the kennels. I don't think I will be using kennels again as one of my dogs ovbiosuly found it pretty stressful. Like I said ...I am not blaming precious pets for my dog being unwell They have amazing reviews and that shows for something.
Very helpful and friendly staff... I love the fact that most times when I pick my two dogs up (they only ever do one or two nights) they have even been washed and smell lovely. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. They are most definitely not in the middle of nowhere as one review describes.
We use Precious Pets on a pretty regular basis and have used them for a few years now & highly recommend them. Their rates for boarding are reasonable as well...& we have 4 dogs. They offer special rates if you are boarding more than one dog which is an excellent incentive. The staff are brilliant with our hounds too.Our dogs always come home looking fabulous & smelling sweet what more can you ask for? Thanks to Paula & Steve & all the staff x
First time kennelling our 2 Staffies. Both came back healthy, staff seemed lovely and caring. We’ll be booking them back in for sure 🐾 …
Very impressed. Pleasant and straightforward arrangements, keen to be helpful, clearly love the animals, good communication. Our pets had a fabulous time and we highly recommend this business ! We'll be back!
Excellent service, easy and the dogs are happy there, they know Russell, Anna and the staff, great to know they are in good hands and content there.
Excellent kennels, our dog loves going there. Always welcoming and look after the animals very well. Would highly recommend!
