This was a great little sit- Amanda was incredibly welcoming and you can see the love she has for her two Bengals Ronnie and Ottie who are beautiful and fun to play with. Communication was easy and she gave a great welcome and guide. The house is lovely and clean and tidy and I parked right outside. I didn’t get to explore Westbury-on-Trym as i was on a course in central Bristol (its very close!) but would love to come back as it looked like there was a lovely village high street to explore- I’d happily sit again!
We had a great time with sweetie Nacho! The communication with Anita was nice and easy from the beginning and when we arrived, she showed us the neighbourhood, shops and everything and even invited us to her favourite hawker for dinner. The appartment itself is sweet and very close to MRT/Bus, shops and so on. We really liked the appartment, the condo amenities and the area around. Nacho is a funny furry friend! ♥️ He is super nice company and also good on his own if you go out exploring. His dance and excitement when we came back were always so sweet & heartwarming! All in all, we would recommend to sit Nacho for Anita and would love to see you both soon again!

Great service from Lee! She took fantastic care of our cats, Misty and Bella over the month of August that we were away and they were sad to see her go. She's a wonderful young lady who respected the privacy of our home and followed our requirements to the T! We would definitely be hiring her again during the December holidays! ❤️
Good morning Susa...hope that you are keeping warm..many thanks for the kind rating..Brian
I have been taking my two dogs here for daycare twice a week for a little over two years now. They get so excited in the mornings when they know they're going to daycare. The staff are always warm and welcoming to my pups.
I have been taking my fur-baby to Doggo for the past 12 months. My doggo absolutely loves being surrounded by his fur friends. And the staff at Doggo are warm, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend for day-care as well as short-term sleep-overs.
My Jack Russell spend frequent ad hoc days and overnights at Doggo. He always comes home in good health and good spirits. It is a very convenient service.
Absolutely an abhorrent treatment by the manager, Lee, at the Claremont branch. I was extremely nervous to take my rescue dog who had been showing signs of aggression. I was promised by Graeme, the owner, that a behaviourist is on sight to acclimatise my dogs. I was rushed out, they refused to show me the facilities and I was then treated like a child by Lee when upset. Expensive and not worth the energy!
My babies love going to Doggo for daycare and boarding. Always excited when they get dropped off.
We dropped Abby off with very little notice and she had the best day ever. Will definitely be back! They obviously love dogs and stayed in touch sending photos and a video.
My pup was happy and well looked after. They sent me videos and pictures of him throughout the day. Will definitely use them again,
Seems expensive, no dog walk for 2500 a month then extra 90 a day, this is extortion, gonna start my own dog walk org
Bailey loves going to Doggo Very accommodating with last minute request, which is greatly appreciated
I'm now on month 3 with Doggo in Claremont and I couldn't be happier - and neither can our dog Rio!
Absolutely super. Rose looked after my four fur babies. They're an odd bunch with lots of quirky (read that as naughty) habits and Rose followed all the instructions. I received regular updates on how they were doing. On my return, my Hounds were calm, and content and my home was spotless, as if i just stepped out for a few minutes. It was a very pleasant experience and has given me confidence that I can plan holidays and have a reliable and honest pet and home sitter. Thank you so much Rosemary!
Rosemary can speak dog language. My dogs adore her and when I return from my trips they are so happy, calm as if they had been on a holiday with her. I feel such peace of mind when they are with her. I appreciate her daily updates to me.
Over the past nine years I have entrusted my dog children in the care of Jackie from Waggy Tail Doggy Daycare at regular intervals - first for a few years consecutively while setting up a new business and again two weeks ago when I had to go on a trip. One of my dogs is a little three-legged, deaf jack russel and is a very needy little lass due to her challenges. Jackie sent updates and pictures and I could see that both my little girls were calm and happy. I have known Jackie for a long time and have never come across a person with such insight into animals. She takes her responsibilities very seriously and her wise and gentle touch makes Waggy Tail a home away from home which provides great peace of mind.
Waggy Tail Doggy Daycare is the ultimate in providing your fur-child with the most caring and loving day-care and boarding environment. Jackie is committed to providing a safe, secure and stimulating environment for each doggy. Her attention to detail is meticulous and she goes the extra mile for each and every doggy entrusted in her care. If you want to have complete peace of mind about placing your fur-child in daycare, then Waggy Tail Doggy Daycare is the place you're looking for. I HGHLY recommend Waggy Tail Doggy Daycare in every way.
My dog has been at Waggy Tail for many years. It's home away from home for him. He's an anxious dog but I have peace of mind knowing he is safe and well taken care of. I often recommend Waggy Tail to others especially if their dog is not adjusting at bigger day cares. The understanding and flexibility it offers means I don't have to worry.
I left my 2 small dogs with Jackie for 5 weeks while I relocated to Portugal, It was the most stressful thing I have had to do but Jackie was amazing, I have never met a more caring, loving, knowledgeable pet sitter in my life and over the years I have left my dogs in different situations when I have gone overseas, I just regret not having come across Jackie before. We had major problems with PETPORT the relocation company I used but Jackie was amazing helping me deal with their unbelievable incompetence. She took care of my dogs as if they were here own and sent me daily video’s of what fun they were having. I cannot recommend WAGGYTAILS highly enough, I just dont know how I am going to find someone here in Portugal to live up to her standards.
I have yet to meet somebody more passionate about dogs and their care. Our dogs go 5 days a week and are extremely happy. This has become their second home. Can’t recommend Jackie high enough.
Our dog Gemma loves Waggy Tail and the adventures she goes on with Jackie. We feel very fortunate to have such loving care for her while she is at Daycare.
I can highly recommend Waggy Tail Doggy Daycare. My two pups are always happy to visit for the day or stay the weekend. Personal touch in a family home. Reasonable prices and clear rules.
Best doggy daycare in Cape Town. Both my dogs go here 5 days a week (for the past 4+ years). A home from home- wouldn't trust anyone else with my dogs. Couldn't recommend it more highly.
Jackie's gentle way with animals is truly inspiring. Maxi loves spending time at daycare as Jackie makes sure the dogs get along first before accepting new animals to the pack.
My doggo absolutely loves Jackie, she cannot wait to go to "school" in the morning. Jackie is extremely accommodating and communicative.
Thank you Pooch for taking such good care of Benson! Would definitely bring him back and recommend Pooch to any dog owner! We received regular updates of Benson having the time of his life playing with friends, getting cuddles and sleeping snuggly! We picked him up in perfectly healthy condition after a 2 week stay. I'm sure he's already looking forward to his next visit! Thanks to the entire team, you made it as easy as possible for us to enjoy our time without him, knowing he's in the best care and well loved!
Cannot praise "the Poochers" highly enough. From our day of assessment, where every new doggy is assessed for temperament & suitability, to Elly's actual sleepover, one feels the deep love and care Jarryd, Erich, Mac D, Nadine and all staff have for one's floof and indeed canines in general. The premises are spotless and park-like, lots of comfort and shade provided and the attentiveness of the doggy-carers is truly next-level. I was given lots of updates, videos and little news reports as to progress and comfort levels, all very re-assuring and instilling confidence in the human who has left her beloved wee pooch to board for the weekend. The kindness, canine expertise and care at Pooch is phenomenal. Thank you all for your excellence, it is so appreciated.
Happy pug, happy (dog)mom!! Pooch is like no other daycare/boarding facility I’ve ever experienced. It’s incredible that they do an assessment with the dogs before the can attend or stay over to ensure they don’t affect the group environment. Everyone who works at Pooch truly love the dogs and it shows. I was concerned that my dog is more of a lap dog and prefers human attention more than doggy attention (and didn’t enjoy other daycares previously) but he loved it at Pooch. He got treated with so much love (and willing laps to sit on). I also appreciated the constant videos and pictures showing the fun time he was having. Thank you Pooch- our new spot of choice for when we are away and need to leave Wall-E in a trusted, safe and lovely environment.
Absolutely amazing! Sengi had the time of his life at Pooch. An amazing team of people do everything to ensure that the doggos are safe, happy and stimulated. Every day we received pic and video updates of Sengi meeting new friends, playing, eating treats, sleeping on couches, sun bathing and generally living his best life. It made our 18 day travels stress free seeing what a gas the boy was having. Thank you.
Our dog spent a weekend at Pooch recently, his first weekend at a doggy daycare. He is quite scared of strangers but the staff at Pooch were incredible and he looked right at home there in no time. We got a constant stream of photos and updates from the Pooch team which so we could see what our pup was up to at all times. Could not recommend them more!
Pooch is the absolute best doggy daycare! Our dog Kia is quite timid and every single part of the experience instilled in us trust that she would be/was in good company, well cared for, and happy: a thorough assessment to ensure only well-natured dogs are admitted, a detailed intake form so all Kia's needs were met, tons of updates, photos, and videos throughout her stay, and such extremely caring staff. Unlike other daycares, they really emphasise quality of stay for the dogs rather than the quantity of dogs. Kia came home with more confidence from her few days at Pooch, so great to see! Highly recommend!
Amazing doggy hotel! Our Harvey boy was so well looked after and we were given peace of mind with constant updates of how he was doing. They go above and beyond at Pooch to make sure your doggie is stimulated and given all the love.
Where do I start?! Pooch is one of the best discoveries that we have ever made. Pooch is run not as a business but rather as a family, and it is made clear with every interaction and stay. Our GSP has the most incredible time at Pooch whether he is there for a weekend or a month. We get multiple updates on his activities, adventure walks, and naps via our WhatsApp group and have constant communication between the owners and carers at Pooch. I can't forget to mention the best part and that is that they fetch and drop off as we live 30-minutes away from Hout Bay, making every stay a non-negotiable!
Staying over at Pooch is our dogs’ most loved activity. They are loved, stimulated and receive ample supervised play time. We get regular updates of them having the best time. We are so thankful for the wonderful staff who are very lnowledgable and absolutely adore all the doggies. Would give a 10/10 review!
Pooch looked after our dog so well and sent us regular updates, pics and videos. It’s a lovely space for the dogs to play, comfy sleeping arrangements and expert dog handlers.
A massive thanks to the incredible Superwoof team for taking such good care of my little girl. I have been taking my Beagle pup for both day-care and overnight stays, and they have exceeded every expectation I had. From the seamless drop-off and collections, to the video footage that they share throughout the day of your pup living their best life. I would highly recommend Superwoof to everyone!
I'm so grateful to have found this amazing place! Our companion is a Yorkie so I'm super particular about where I leave him as they can be more sensitive, and this place exceeded all my expectations. Firstly, the facilities are top-notch and incredibly spacious - my pup had plenty of room to run around and play. The grounds are well-maintained, clean, and secure, giving me complete peace of mind. The staff are absolute dog lovers and treated my Yorkie like royalty! They're friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about providing a safe and happy environment for all the furry guests. I was impressed by the individualized care and attention given to each dog, and the staff took the time to get to know my pup's unique needs and personality. I can confidently say that superwoof is Yorkie-approved! If you're looking for a safe, comfortable, and fun place to leave your companions, look no further. I'll definitely be back!
Superwoof has been absolutely amazing. Our Great Dane, Franky, is a sensitive and gentle soul with pretty bad separation anxiety, but he absolutely LOVES going to Superwoof. The team send regular pictures and updates and are always super accommodating. Honestly, a lifesaver organisation
Visiting from the United States we needed to get our pup into daycare to be fully present with our family. SUPERWOOF was quick to respond, get her assessed, and even sold Hills Science Diet on-site which was really helpful since we were running low. We loved the pictures they send us updating us on our pup and how her day was going. We visited 3 times in the time that we were there and each time we turned into the parking area our pup was yelping with excitement! Thanks SUPERWOOF for giving us piece of mind while we visited our family for the first time in 3 years!
We LOVE Superwoof! We know when we drop our dog off there that she’s in good hands and having the time of her life! They also send you photos and videos of your dog when he/she is checked in for an overnight stay which is great when you’re missing your furry friend :)
You think your dogs are happy at home? You are wrong, you will see your dog smile when they spend time at Super Woof! We had our two fur kids visit the hotel for 17 nights and they didn't want to leave. The staff are fantastic and the space is so much fun, your dog will sleep for 2 days when returning home. I cnanot praise Joanne and Bianca enough for an amazing amazing amazing product.
Bianca and the superwoof team are nothing short of incredible and they are the true superhero’s in this story. Superwoof has become our fur child’s home away from home. He loves going to superwoof. The team are so professional,loving and caring. I Wish I could give them 10 stars out of 5 as they truly go above and beyond to assist in every possible way. From booking your pup in to keeping you updated and informed they truly are the best. Thank you superwoof!!!
Brilliant doggy hotel. They are consistent in updating you and really love your dog. Couldn’t have chosen a better “holiday” for my dog. So happy with their service and so happy that I chose them to love my dog while I was away.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super Woof is absolutely fantastic! My Dachshund loves visiting both the Seapoint and Foreshore branches. It's the perfect blend of socialisation and fun for him. The staff members are incredibly caring and trustworthy, giving me peace of mind every time I leave him there. Plus, I love receiving pictures and videos throughout the day, keeping me in the loop with all the excitement. Five stars without a doubt!
Absolutely love this place!! Super easy to book, drop off and collect. The photos + communication whilst we are away is top class! Also so thankful that they take power breeds, as many places do not! Yogi loves you guys.
