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

Amazing kennels. They took wonderful care of our dog when we were away recently. She was a very happy girl and them and even gave them a kiss when she left. Very good communication and lovely people. I'd recommend them to anyone.
My little spaniel spent a few hours with Amanda and her daughter whilst we attended a funeral. They are so friendly and obviously love dogs, so I would use this service again, when in Scotland. Compared to where we live, the daily rate is excellent value. Would recommend.
Looked after our pups for our wedding weekend and couldn’t have done enough to make them safe and comfortable. One of our dogs went into the kennel with an injury and the team at ardoch were able to look after her and administer pain relief throughout the weekend. It really put our mind at ease that our dogs were safe and sound throughout our wedding. Thank you so much Amanda!
We put our dog into kennels for the day whilst on holiday in Stirling. We wanted to see the castle, and dogs aren't allowed. He had a great day, and was well cared for. The owner was kind and gentle with him. Would use them again the next time we visit the area.
First time we have used the Kennels and would definitely recommend to others. Dogs seemed happy going in and coming out and that wasn't because they could see their owners! Amanda was friendly and you could see how deficated she is to her kennels. Thanks Amanda we will be back if we need a kennels when in your area again.
Excellent boarding kennels. We were worried to leave Molly with strangers as she is normally really aloof with anyone she doesnt know but she took 2 Amanda straight away and settled in well. She came home looking healthy and happy. Will be using here from now on.
Needed a kennels to look after my dog for the day whilst we visited the safari park. Amanda was extremely helpful & accommodating to our needs. Kennels appeared clean & well organised. Would recommend
Superb boarding kennels. Meticulously clean and exellently managed. Dogs well looked after by experienced owner and staff. Large exercise area. Surroundings beautiful in rural/farm setting near to red kite sanctuary.
Once again Bruno has had a fantastic time at the kennels. Thankyou for taking such good care of him. Don't know what we would do without you.
Very good Kennels, the owner obviously cares about dogs. Alway difficult to book a place as it's so popular.
We leave our wee Barney and Rosie with Alison and Fraser and know they get totally spoiled, it's totally home from home and gives you great comfort when you go away. Lovely wee haven for our pampered pooches 😂😂😂❤️ …
I was anxious about leaving my pup with strangers as he is very timid around new people. But when I collected him he was so happy and playing with the resident dogs! The owners couldn’t be lovelier and I would highly recommend!
This was the first time we have left our 15 month old ALD with anyone other than family. We only left her a few days but when we went back to collect her, she had already made herself at home and was quite happy amongst the other doggy residents - I was so pleased and can’t recommend Alison & Fraser highly enough. Alison and Fraser even had time to sent me a pic of Roxy chilling on the top of the sofa 💕💕💕🐾🐾🐾. Thank you again Alison & Fraser for taking such good care of our girl. She’ll be looking forward to visiting you again in July . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Alison and Fraser are great with wee Dolly. She loves it there as it's more like another home for her. We feel she's sage, cared for and indeed loved there.
Our buddy been visiting for days n sleepovers for 2years now its a second home to him now our wee bonnie also visiting too, Alison and frazer treat the dogs as their own, brilliant place for boarding be it day or night also holidays wouldn't put my dogs anywhere else big safe secure property, I can go to work or on holiday knowing my babies are looked after.
Alison is fab, our wee Lhasa, he loves going on his holidays and Alison always caters to our wee old man’s needs! He can’t wait to come back later this year only this time he’s bringing a puppy along with him 🫶 …
Amazing my bundle of 3 had a great time , such a lovely couple and dogs are well looked after. Like a home from home already booked in for next visit. Thank you so much ❤️🐶🐶🐶 …
amazing dog boarding and lovely people. Always know our boys are well looked after when they are staying
Always great to see the dogs having a good time
Best dog minder ever
Hayley has been walking my dogs for 6 years now and she feels more like family to me. I trust her (and her family) completely with Roddy and Ghillie and they adore her. Whenever her car pulls into the street they know it is Hayley and are beyond excited to see her. They now stay with Hayley and her family overnight, twice per week, due to my work commitments and she sends me lovely photos showing how happy and relaxed they are. Hayley is very accommodating if I have to change at short notice, due to work commitments. I can't recommend Happy Pooch highly enough.
I have used Happy pooch for the last 6 years Hayley and Gav have been absolutely fantastic within my little dogs they treat him Like part of their family, they are there at short notice for me when things change and I need a dog sitter, I always leave Barney ( the dog ) with happy pooch when I go on holiday as I know he will be very well looked after. I can’t recommend happy pooch high enough
I was lucky to have Haley recommended to me by a friend approximately 6 years ago . I cannot speak highly enough of Haley’s kindness and absolute dedication to the dogs in her care . The whole family care so much about the animals . I am grateful to them all as it was a difficult time in my life . I am so pleased to say I consider them wonderful friends . And recommend Haley as safe and secure hands for your precious pet .
Excellent dog walker, very reliable and trustworthy. Our dog loves going out with Hayley,. Also used home boarding which was just as good. Couldn't recommend enough.
What an outstanding service. You get value for money and made feel really welcome. This is my second time using Happy Pooch and will certainly not be my last. Both my dogs love going there and I am put at ease by the respect and deication the team show. Thank you guys you are highly recommended
Friendly my girl loves staying with Haley, great peace of mind when go on holiday she is being well looked after.
Very reliable dog boarding and dog walking service. I had to use them for my dog as I had to travel on emergency. Came back to a very happy and well walked dog!
Great family run business. Lovely welcoming home with lots of space for the dogs. Would 100% recommend
thanks
So glad I joined safe paws. I had such an anxious little pup who couldn't stand to be away from me, now he can't wait to get into the centre in the mornings. Really changed his life! So grateful to all the staff and everything they have done to help him. Can't recommend them enough!
This place is a wonderful example of how to run a dog day care centre. Well organised and run with the safety of the dogs paramount. Shirley is supported by a wonderful team who all made my training a very worthwhile experience. The course is well structured which provides plenty of safe, supervised practice with the dogs. A great experience and comes highly recommended to anyone who wishes to become a day care provider.
Attended the 3 day training course for opening. Highly professional and wealth of knowledge. Practical training was to a high standard. Lovely to see such well trained staff, happy dogs and a well run daycare centre. I would recommend training course to anyone starting up their own daycare and to any owners looking for Dog daycare in Stirling. Kèep up the awesome work Shirley and staff team
I attended the dog day care trainers course here and absolutely loved it! Shirley is so knowledgable and down to earth, no question goes unanswered. The centre is fantastic with well trained staff who make sure no dog is ever left out, any dog is lucky to be a part of Safepaws!
Excellent my dog comes home thoroughly exhausted. I can now take him for walks and he will integrate with other dogs. He says he loves going. How they get him to nap at lunchtime!! Is a 5 star in my eyes. Thoroughly recommend to anyone who has a dog staff so patient and love their job. Long may they keep going.
I’ve used safe paws since my dog has been 12 weeks old. He loves his day each week and is now 7 years old and still acts like he is 12 weeks of age every time he goes through the door. Fantastic service and wonderful staff
My gorgeous boy lenny loves his days with safe paws. He has made lots of doggy friends. Thank you safepaws for also teaching him recall! Highly recommend
What a fantastic training course Shirley delivers :) had the most amazing experience learning with the team, All the dogs and pups seem so happy here and get 10/10 care from the handlers
Henris favourite place. Can't ask for more. Great facilities friendly staff and look out for your dog.
Monty, my miniature schnauzer has been going here since he was 12 weeks old, his tail wags when we approach the entrance, he is a very happy doggo and the staff are amazing
Very friendly and great with animals.x
Great for doggy
5 stars is just not enough in my opinion, if I could give 1000++ I would!! Evelyn and the team at Barkmoral are just absolutely amazing, without a shadow of a doubt, I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog other than them. After having a terrible experience with another boarder whilst on holiday, I was so nervous to leave him with someone else again, but Evelyn was so patient with me and put my mind at complete ease every step of the way, with regular updates and pictures of him having the greatest time! He has the best time with them and doesn’t actually want to come home with me when I go to pick him up!! Whenever I drop him off he gets SO excited in the car going up the driveway - this says a lot!! Evelyn and the team are so experienced and qualified with the proper insurance and also council registered - which just put me more at ease. They really do offer a “home away from home” for your dog and treat them like their own. I feel so comfortable leaving my dog in their hands when I’m away and I can’t thank them enough for that ❤️
This is not a kennel, this is a hotel! Evelyn and Lauren just love dogs, the only place we would leave our dogs when on holiday.
Thanks for your fantastic review, Peter!
Thanks so much for your 5-star review Andrew!
The company as a whole have helped us immensely since we got our puppy, Milo, in April. Initially a home visit from Scott to help start us on our training journey, his gentle nature was what made me then book onto puppy school. We then settled Milo in for puppy day care which has been such a help on days where I need peace of mind that Milo is cared for when my day is full on. Milo adores puppy care, he drags me from the car to the entrance! Recently I have attended Scott's group walks as well which has been such a help. The group isn't just about walking, it provides me with social interaction with other dog owners, as well as personalised training tips for my own puppy. Scott spent a lot of time with Milo which has greatly improved certain things I was struggling with. His approach with dog training is incredible, always about finding the positives and helping the dog to achieve rather than setting them up to fail. Cannot recommend Stirling Dog Behavioural Centre enough.
We’ve been taking our four legged companion to SDBC for a while now. The weekend classes are a god send for new and existing pet owners. Having never had a dog before we felt very welcome and comfortable with such an open, understanding and incredibly knowledgeable team. We also make use of the day care centre which our pup loves going to! The dogs are well looked after and paired up based on a number of factors. So we are always safe in the knowledge that pup is having the best time with his other doggo pals! Keep an eye on Facebook for their cameo appearance! The shop has an array of delicious deli treats for our boy. Everything is great quality and well priced! Beats all the high street chains by a long shot in my opinion! Finally, Scott’s walking groups are a great way to work with a skilled trainer on how to get the best from your dog whilst walking in loads of different situations. Scott is incredibly patient, even with our overly excited spaniel! It’s a great way to get practical hands on experience while enjoying a nice walk with great company (the humans are ok too 😜) Can’t stress enough how much we appreciate everything the team do and would encourage anyone to come along and meet them! 🐶
Highly recommend Scott and SDBC. Went along to Scott’s teenage tear away class and came away wishing we’d used SDBC puppy classes. Attended individual recall session with Scott, great improvement with this and lots more confident letting our dog off lead. More recently had a consultation at home with Scott then a walk around our local park. Scott listens to everything and understood the difficulties we were experiencing with barking at and passing other dogs. He offered great advice and showed handling skills putting me at ease and helping rebuild my confidence and my dog’s. Definitely been an improvement all round while out on walks. These are enjoyable again with very few occasions of barking however thanks to Scott I’m now more comfortable handling these situations. 😊🐶😊
I've been taking Custard on adventure walks and walking with other dogs with Scott. The group sessions have been amazing for Custard! Not just for his socialisation, but for his little tics which I've not seen, that Scott has pointed out; something that isn't easy to notice by yourself. Custard can now walk with other dogs, no matter the breed without pulling constantly. I highly recommend anyone who needs help with walking with others or even trying new areas is extremely worth while. A couple of pictures and an after one, once the boy got back home from the great social! Thanks Scott, all I ask is more walks with lots of water please 😂.
I’ve been going to training and playgroup with my Puppy since November and SDBC is now part of our life and have made some lovely new friends. Everyone at the centre is amazing and have really helped my wee Teddy. We recently went on the puppy walks and I would highly recommend it. It really does help you put what you learn in class into practice and has really benefited us. Scott is great and takes time to help with any issues your pup has. During the 5 walks we saw such an improvement with all our fur babies.
Our experience with Stirling Dog Behavioral Centre has been first class. We were having problems with our 2 dogs (ages 4 and 6) barking and lunging at other dogs and we didn’t know how to stop it. Also, our younger dog had bitten the vet nurse at a vaccination appointment, and we had stopped going to the vet. We were going to go on holiday to Cornwall with the dogs and we knew we wouldn’t be able to control the dogs in a busy place. We had not really trained them properly, which was remiss of us but it’s never too late to start! Scott came to visit us at home first and assessed our situation. We live in the country and our dogs were not meeting other dogs routinely and particularly the younger one who was a lockdown puppy hadn’t met other dogs all through her first year. We started playing training games with the dogs and encouraging them to engage more with us and rewarding the behavior we wanted. So, at a basic level if the dog turns to you, you say yes and give a treat. Then a few weeks later we joined the classes. It was amazing our dogs could cope with being in a big group of dogs as they are all busy doing exercises and games, they didn’t bark etc. Our younger dog is still lunging but we know what to do now and hopefully this behavior will become less. We are being trained to train our dogs! The training has also helped us take the dogs to the vet. Our last vaccinations went like a dream as we distracted them with sausages! Their heads were in the sausage container they didn’t even know the vaccination was going in. So we are heading to Cornwall next week and we are looking forward to walks on the beach with well behaved dogs!
Would highly recommend Scott and the team at SDBC. I had a consultation with Scott and then attended group classes with my 2 year old rescue. I have also been on one of the adventure walks with Scott. All the staff are very knowledgeable and show great care towards every single dog they meet. Me and my pup now have a lot more confidence with the training methods we have learned
A wonderful place where dogs come first but their humans are nurtured too Ann and her team genuinely love their charges and it’s not just a business or a job to them. I had a huge amount of support for my Border Collie to the extent of SDBC helping me find the most fantastic home for her. I have a new puppy now and we are both looking forward to working with the team again. They also sell a wide range of natural chews and treats and will advise owners on the most appropriate choice. The dogs really love going there and that’s a better endorsement than this human can give. So it’s 5 stars from me too.
Our lunatic black Labrador puppy entered our lives in February 2020 just before lockdown. The timing was terrible and socialisation a real problem. A recommendation led us to the amazing team at the Stirling Dog Behavioural Centre and we’ve never looked back. Luffy loves it. He started with puppy playgroup and now goes once a week as a day care dog (for his own benefit, not because he needs to) and for obedience classes. He loves it; we’ve both benefited enormously and have come so far. So far, in fact, he now has a baby sister. I simply can’t recommend this place highly enough.
The staff at SDBC are knowledgeable, helpful and supportive. I've accessed their classes, organised walks and 1:1 support. All brilliant! The organised walks really help bring to life your class based learning with your dog, taking you into real world settings with the wonderful trainer, Scott to support you.
