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

We are taking our new Labrador back today to stay at Sue’s after moving away for 13 years, if the kennels are anything like what they were when we use to board our old Labrador Hugo… then Tye will be one happy doggie 🐶
Been using Columbine for about 7 years, my previous dog, Rocky, loved the kennels and spent more time out in the yard with Sue’s dogs in the sunny months, my two evil rescue beagles just accept that’s where the go for summer walks and holidays, they all love the farm doggies. Sue is so good with all her guests.
Just the loveliest lady. I would not leave my beagle with anyone else. Top kennels.
We have used Columbine Farm for sixteen years, and have always been very happy with the care and attention given to our dogs - both of whom have gone, for 'doggy daycare', for several days a week. Sue is a lovely lady, who treats every dog as an individual. We would totally recommend it.
Been going there for the last 10 years. Sue is professional and caring towards the dogs which for me is crucial for me knowing I can relax and not worry about our George when he's with sue at columbine kennels.
We have been using these kennels for years now and all of our dogs have received excellent care. Owner is a lovely lady and we would recommend Columbine to anybody.
Very good experience. Sue helped out with Maisie when Mum was in hospital. She was well looked after and very happy. Highly recommended.
Sue is just lovely with the dogs and creates a really safe and welcoming environment.
Sue is a lovely lady, top class care! Very pleased, home from home! 💕
Amazing Kennels would not go anywhere else!
We have boarded our dog with End cottage now 3 times. First over night and all day, 2nd time was just day boarding and we recently boarded her for 3 nights and 4 days. Our dog Luna absolutely loves going to stay with Helen and Tony. The level of care they give is amazing and I can't recommend them enough. She comes back looking amazing and always has a spring in her step. Thank you for always managing to fit Luna in and Luna says she will be back soon. ❤️
My dog has just come back after a weeks stay with helen, Tony and their team. I can not thank them enough, sasha looks amazing she has a spring in her step. I wouldn't trust anyone else with our fur baby. We travel for just over an hour to get there and it's worth every minute . Amazing ❤️❤️💚🐾🐾 xx …
Great kennels, heated beds, fantastic staff. Bailey is always happy to go for a visit and he's happy and healthy when he comes home. Fabulous!
Took our dog Delta there for the first time, we were a little nervous as the last time she was in kennels she didn't do so well, but she was great here, the staff are very friendly and really know their stuff! She came back happy and healthy and she'd had a nice groom while she was with them too! 10/10
We were looking for a kennel to leave our dog when we left for a holiday. We found End Cottage Kennels and decided to take a chance. They had pretty good reviews so we weren't really worried. When we got to the kennel, we were greeted by a very accommodating staff and led us to where our dog, Alphonse will be staying. It was a great room (not a cage), where he had a bed and a television that was on 24/7. We brought Alphonse's bed, food and water bowl - which was totally optional because the kennel will provide everything - even the food. Being dotting dog parents, we decided to bring his stuff. The kennel had a great schedule for Alphonse while he was staying there. He had scheduled walks, he was fed according to our instructions, and a lot more. Now we have a trusted place to leave our Alphonse whenever we leave for holiday. The staff is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend!
Best kennels we have used, our rescue dog is very nervous and has had some difficulty with new people and places, but he has come back happy from every visit to End Cottage. Wouldn’t take him anywhere else now, highly recommend.
Great service. It was a first time for my dog to stay elsewhere and I worried how he will settle. He seemed happy when I collected him. Had no issues going for walks, taking medication. I would definitely use your services again. Thank you
Wow, what a wonderful, friendly and caring place. My dogs were looked after well and were fit and healthy after their holiday. One dog is blind and diabetic, which was no problem for them to give insulin twice per day. I cannot recommend enough. VW fans too 👍👍
Looked after so well. Dogs are happy here and if they are happy we are.
I highly recommend End Cottage Kennels! Run by very nice people who take profesional care of the dogs🙂 Our dog always comes back happy and well maintained. 10/10 …
Been helping look after my birds for over 3 years.
Only place to go
Our three dogs stayed here for the first time over Christmas. We were worried about leaving them, as they had never stayed in kennels before, but the owner put our minds at rest. He was happy for us to text him and provide updates as to how the dogs were doing. When we arrived back, the dogs were clean and obviously well looked after. The dogs slept together in one of the larger kennels, but during the day were had the freedom of the large garden. We have already booked them in for holidays this year.
Really lovely place for my doggies to stay, it was perfect, price was was good for 3 dogs, a great find & wouldn’t go anywhere else, like home from home. Thank you Chris & Nora.
First time for our dog to board and she loved it. Chris and his wife were very welcoming and put my mind at rest . Bella was very relaxed on her return home. Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant. My dog had the best week, not sure she wanted to come home. Would 100% recommend
Pleasant staff. Nice walks from here
First time for our dog to board and he loved it. Chris and his wife were very welcoming and put our minds at rest x
Excellent Kennel. Our mutt always loves it
Both our dogs go here and are well looked after & allways come back happy & healthy.
I would recommend this boarding kennels dogs are well loved and cared for with lots of field for them to run around and play with other friendly dogs 10/10 .
Moved my dog from higher priced kennel I had paid for to a cheaper one while I was on holiday would never go back.
I just felt I just had to leave a short review thanking you from the bottom of my heart for the way you looked after Molly, from the moment we both came to meet you at your lovely home I was at ease knowing she would be treated, in all honesty as she is at our home, the regular video’s and FaceTime just topped it off. The result of this was that my wife and I had a wonderful stress free break without worrying about her, we will certainly be using your services again.
We had to travel due to family emergency and was looking for a place to drop our pug. Spoke with Richard who was super friendly and very reasonable keeping in mind last minute drop off before school holidays. Through out our time we left candy around 20 days with Richard he always keep us informed with messages and pictures. Candy came back healthy and more energetic then before. Richard is such a gentleman and polite person i have ever seen in my life. I will definitely use richard again when going on holiday and personally recommend to all my friends and family. Will also recommend at work place as i believe Richard deserve shout out for being amazing. 🙏🏻
Absolutely amazing. Richard has been phenomenal in helping me and my family by looking after our 2 dogs during a stressful move. He went above and beyond, we couldnt be more grateful. I highly recommend seeing if he has the space to look after your pets while your away. You will not be disappointed at all, I guarantee it.
DO NOT RELY ON THIS PERSON. Accepted our booking and then kept avoiding a meet and greet to only cancel with 12 days until the date to cover my wedding and honeymoon! What sort of person does this to someone? Nowhere has any availability now and looks like we can’t go on our honeymoon and will have to have a guest look after our dog during the wedding instead of attending. So so upset. Avoid at all costs!!
Very disappointed that the owner (Richard) was keen to accept our booking but then decided to not communicate with us after giving us the price for our dogs. Even when I contacted him he made contact immediately but when he realised I was asking about the original booking he stopped communicating with me, god knows why. Common courtesy doesn’t cost anything.
An argument ensued when we phoned to request to cancel our booking and pick up our pooch early and were told this was ok but on collection were asked to pay full rate for the planned duration. Could of been easily resolved with a polite and rational conversation but after being quoted 3 different prices and mansplained to / having received a very passive aggressive and smug attitude I decided to leave before the guy pushed the argument further, as he seemed to be enjoying winding me up. All after we overpaid and tipped generously the first time we used them. Ultimately all I can say is this guy rubbed me up the wrong way, and he seemed to get off on doing so by the smug expression on his face.
Always nervous about leaving my house bunny, Lewis, with strangers, I asked many questions prior to booking, all of which were answered promptly with lots of patience and understanding. I was delighted that Dovecote were happy to meet my specific requirements for Lewis's care, and felt reassured about their close relationship with the local vet - just in case! When we dropped Lewis off Bryony was friendly and enthusiastic, and put me at ease. I was thrilled to recieve a text that evening confirming that Lewis had settled in well, and further texts and a photo on email during the week that made it much easier for me to enjoy my holiday guilt free. On collection Lewis was freshly cleaned out, and looking very happy and well cared for, it really was a home from home. He also settled in very quickly when we got him back home, where normally he would be a bit mardy and make us suffer for a few days for leaving him. I can only assume that he enjoyed his holiday too, and I will definately be taking him back to Dovecote for our next break. All in all, a huge relief, and highly recommended.
Very friendly, Richard was flexible about timings , which helps on a day out. Bella had a happy day playing with her new mates.
Richard was absolutely brilliant with my pet Lab he kept me informed with how he was doing plus sent photo's. Definitely use him again
Our girls seemed to love it here, happy faces and waggy tails. Its alot less stressful than kennels. Just waiting to hear back on next booking.
Diesel loved his two week stay over the last couple of weeks. Thanks Rich, really appreciate you having him.
Becky was brilliant. We felt so reassured that our elderly cat was being well looked after. What a great service.
Neil looked after our two border collies for a week while we were away. The care was fantastic, I would say a home away from home, only it is probably better! The dogs received lots of walks, play and affection and we had regular updates with photos from Neil. The dogs had stayed with Neil for a few hours and then overnight in preparation for the week and they’re delighted to go back to him. The photos are from a selection that Neil sent whilst we were away.
Neil is great! He’s been looking after Baxter once a week for about 6 months now. He’s a young beagle so he’s very…crazy! He’s very accommodating and matches the dogs he spends the day with perfectly. He provides updates through the day and pictures of their adventures playing and on their many walks. Baxter knows exactly where he’s going when we get to Neil’s - he couldn’t be more excited! It gives my wife who WFH a much needed day off keeping an eye on him, and Baxter a day of socialising with other dogs. I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else - he also boards which we’ll be taking advantage of next month when we go away. I’m sure Baxter will love it!
Looked after my puppy while I was attending a family emergency at the local hospital. Very grateful and the little one had a great time.
I contacted neil because I need someone to look after my puppy cockerpoo for a week in June and hes been walking with me and having lottie occasional to build up some trust with her. I find him really gentle with the dogs, I take my other two on walks with him and they seem to enjoy his company too. The dogs seem to respond to his commands and he has full control over the dogs. I will definitely be using neil, Nottingham pet care. And I know i can go on holiday and not worry about my puppy.
Been taking Ralphy here for the past month and he absolutely loves it, always so happy to go. Neil is really responsive and always keeps me updated. Fantastic day care 😀 …
Cocoa loves this “dog hotel”
I went to donate a bag if unused puppy food and stayed for a coffee in the cafe within the premises. It's a good set up and I will visit again soon. Update 08/11 Just placed my malligator puppy in for a fre days board. Bit anxious as it's the 1st time away since I got him in May but he's in a great place where he will be well looked after. Will post another update when I collect him Monday.
Brilliant kennels my two boys get so excited when we get there they obviously are happy there. All the staff are lovely and knowledgeable, would not take them anywhere else.
My little dog got out last week, haven't been able to thank everyone enough for looking after her during the time she got out. Thank you all for taking care after Brandi for me 💕 …
Just visited the onsite cafe, obviously dog friendly, nice snacks and drinks, good service .
We had to keep our dog here in Castlefield kennels for 4 weeks and she was looked after and cared for . We cannot express our gratitude to the exceptional care given. If we could give 10 stars we would, in fact,we give it 10 STARS!!!! Thank you to ALL members of staff for the understanding they gave us during this time. The O’Connell’s
Our dog Trixie was happy and healthy when we picked her up, seemed she had a great time. All the staff we spoke to were friendly and you can tell they love what they do. Will definitely use again.
Castlefield looked after our large & bouncy puppy very well. Our previous dog stayed with them several times. In both cased the dogs clearly recognised the place and were happy to go in & go off with the staff to their kennel. The owning family have several dogs of their own and I trust their judgement.
Our dogs always stay at Castlefield. I wouldn't trust them anywhere else. We rescued one of our dogs from Castlefield. They are always extremely well looked after, and happy when they get there. Cannot recommend highly enough. The staff are very friendly
Wonderful kennels. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. Biba doesn't look back when she goes in and cries all the way home when she leaves. She loves it there.
I normally take my dog to a local kennel in the New Forest but they were unable to accommodate him. On recommendation we took him with us to Nottingham and were made comfortable leaving him at this kennels. The family run business is superb, the set up was impressive 👏 my boy left happy which makes me happy. Highly recommend 👌 👍 thanks for making my boy have a lovely holiday.
Superb service by Sally and her family would thoroughly recommend. We first left our Parrot with Sally for a week after our normal sitter was unavailable, on first visiting Brinsley Pet Care and meeting Sally I felt comfortable leaving him, the set up is amazing and Sally had a nice confident way with the animals. After our Parrot visit we felt comfortable asking Sally if she would visits our old dogs and give them lunch and medication if we have to be out the house for longer than normal, they love her and she sends little videos of them in the garden having some fuss 😍. Such reasonable prices as well ~ Amazing ❤️
I've been using Brinsley Pet Care for a few years to look after my ratty mischief. They have quite spacious multi level accommodation for their stays I've had several rats that needed multiple doses of life-saving medications and this has never been a problem for Sally. They have a great time and return happy and healthy. ❤️
Sally and her family are amazing and are passionate about animals. I wouldn't leave our bird with anyone else. She loves staying there. It's nice to go away and not worry about her being looked after properly. Service is always amazing
Sally walks Max for us periodically and he's just so chilled afterwards We trust her implicitly with him and have never had an issue. Sally has a gift with animals that I've never known before. We would absolutely recommend her 100%
Sally and her family provide a top class service! Our African Grey Parrot Snozzle loved staying here on his holidays! Would 100% recommend Brinsley Pet Care to anyone!
Sally looked after my little girls beloved mice , she took really great care of them infact I'm sure they didn't want to come back home 🤣 thankyou would definitely recommend brinsley pet care x …
I have been using Sally for the last 2 years to look after My Parrot Marley when I go away, he loves going and always comes home happy, I highly recommend them for all looking after your pets, it home away from home for them and they get the best care.
Will always chose Brinsley pet care for our rabbits. I know I can leave them and I'm confident they are getting the best care possible. Thank you for always taking good care of Misty and Willow
Just collected our two rabbits from their first stay with Sally after a long weekend and would highly recommend Brinsley Pet Care for boarding your rabbits/birds/Guinea pigs/rats/tortoise!! It’s a lovely setting and clearly a place where all the animals are well loved and looked after. The cost is also highly reasonable and very good value. Sally answered my enquiry and all my emailed questions straightaway before their stay which was very reassuring when using a service you only know via FB. I know our boys were well cared for and I won’t hesitate in using Brinsley Pet Care again. Thank you Sally x
Absolutely fantastic service. I stumbled across Brinsley Pet Care when I was let down by another place. I am so glad they let me down as Sally was fantastic! We took our two bunnies and one hamster to board at Brinsley Pet Care for two weeks. When we dropped them off we spoke about having tried to bond the bunnies but that we had struggled. Sally offered to try and bond them while we were away. She kept us regularly updated with messages, pictures and videos. Our two bunnies are, as I type, snuggled up together in one hutch. They are so happy together, they lie next to each other and groom each other. I can't express how grateful we all are. We are over the moon they are bonded. Sally obviously loves animals and has a great affection for them. They have all had a fab time on holiday and am sure they are looking forward to going again! We have kept Sally updated on the bunnies progress since we returned home and Brinsley Pet Care will be our go to for any future boarding needs. Can't recommend highly enough. Thank-you so much.
Rachel has looked after our Cockerpoo Woody on several occasions over the past few years and quite honestly he loves going to stay with her. We get regular updates whilst we're away with photos and its clear he's having a great time with the other dogs. She's always very thorough and professional and ensures that the animals that she has in her care are harmonious together. Its great to have peace of mind to know that he's being looked after so well. We can't speak highly enough of Rachel and the care she provides.
Rachel and Mark are super!! Our dogs adore them and love to see them. We love getting the daily pictures and Mark certainly knows how to use a good filter. Can’t recommend them enough!!
Rachel looked after our two cats while we were on holiday for a week, visiting twice daily. She was very thorough, reliable & gave them plenty of fuss & playtime. We loved the daily photo updates and both cats were perfectly content when we arrived home! Would definitely recommend & use again 🙂 thanks Rachel! …
Absolutely flawless service. We had a holiday to Florida and needed someone to come and feed our old cat twice a day whilst we was away. Service was great, communication was fantastic, kept us updated with photos. Whilst we was away we got delayed coming home and had to stay an extra 2 nights because of a hurricane. Was not a problem extending the service to carry on feeding our cat. I can't recommend this company enough. If you need a service they offer, don't think about it, just contact them and book. 5 star service. Thank you 💙😻
Honestly, Rachel has changed my life. My Assistance dog wasn't getting walked as much as he should, so we found these. She focuses on my dogs needs during the walk making it dog focused and allowing him to decompress. She has respected my wishes in terms of not letting him play with other dogs other than ones he knows. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited in the morning to go, she's so amazing with him and I can't recommend them enough.
Rachel has fed our two cats Rocket & Dixie on a number of occasions and has always looked after them incredibly well. She gives us peace of mind whilst we're away, both in terms of the cats & also our property, ensuring it's left clean & tidy. She gives regular updates about the cats and provides pictures/video which is lovely to see. Nothing is ever too much to ask. I would highly recommend her services.
RM Pet Care are fantastic! Rachel & Mark care deeply about the animals in their care. My Rommie rescue is very nervous around new people & Rachel spent the time getting to know her. This is invaluable for our sensitive souls & my dog absolutely adores both her & Mark! Highly recommended.
Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful attitude towards myself and my wife. My dog came back in such an awful state we actually thought we would need to take him to the vets. Apparently another dog viciously attacked him and left him with a severed ear. The owner was damn right rude and aggressive. Would not recommended to anyone whom care she their pet.
Rachel has been doing pop ins and walks for our dog since she was a little pup, and is absolutely brilliant. She is extremely trustworthy, sends photos and updates and gives our dog so much love! It is really refreshing to see someone really love what they do. Even more so, the tail wags when we’ve seen Rachel on the street are probably more that what we’d get shows a lot!
Couldn't recommend Rachel enough! Our dog always has a waggy tail when he sees her and we feel so confident that he is being well looked after when out on his walks. He's also boarded with her, we get regular photo updates and her communication has always been great.
