"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least £15 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
I cannot rate highly enough the service, amazing care, wonderful love and attention given to Milo our very stubborn and nervous beagle. Milo had such an amazing stay the very first time he has been happy to stay away from home all previous visits he has been very upset but he just loved his time I actually think he qas better looked after and happier than he is at home 🙈 I am so relieved I can book him in for all our 2024 trips as he has found someone who he loves being around.
Can’t recommend Ilona enough. Our Beagle spent 12 days with Ilona, she had the best time. This was our first time leaving her since taking her home. Ilona’s obvious passion and understanding of dogs made our decision easier. We were at full ease during Brandi’s full stay, we were provided with daily updates and there was no hesitation to message Ilona about anything throughout. Brandi misses all of her new friends, and is excited for her next visit.
Ilona is amazing. Loki is a bit of an anxious dog and I am so glad that he is more than happy to be left at Ilona's care. Her lovely dog, Choco, is also an amazing as he gets along with Loki just fine. I am always confident that my dog will be always be looked after. He gets lots of plays and cuddles too so I have no issues leaving him under Ilona's care whenever we go for long holidays. Highly recommend Woof woof Wonderland!
I am the owner of a reactive miniature schnauzer Dexter. At our first “meet and greet” at Ilona’s house our dog liked her straight away and I felt confident that we could leave him with her. He stayed for a week later that month and Ilona was great. She kept in touch with photos and messages and I could see he was having a good time and was quite settled. She is very kind and caring and quite clearly loves having dogs to stay. I will definitely contact Ilona again and highly recommend her xx
Ilona has been looking after my Cockapoo River on a regular basis and has done a great job I would highly recommend her 🙌🏻 …
My dog Szogun had the best time with Ilona. Thanks to her we could enjoy our time away. He was in a good hands all that time. We already booked another stay with Woof Woof Wonderland for our Szogun because we know how happy he was there. Defo 5 stars service!
Bailey loves her time here!
Nothing better than a little holiday at Ilona 😍 Gola got spoiled to bits, was well looked after and enjoyed her time! Highly recommend! …
Highly recommend!
We highly recommend it with all hands.🐾🙂 Mrs. Ilona has a great attitude towards dogs and our Bruno🐶 returned home not only happy, but also better behaved because he no longer tries to crawl on the table xD He will definitely come back there again😊 …
Jan always provides a great service. My cats are always very happy when I return from a trip and I can relax when I'm away from home knowing that they are being well looked after.
Where would we be without Shona. Luna stayed with her last year and adored it... Shona then picked luna up from our wedding recently and once again went above and beyond. We will forever be grateful and will always use Shona for dog sitting if we are ever away or ever in need of someone. Shona - you are a diamond
Shona...how can we thank you! We couldn't have picked a better person to drive our two beloved Pugs from Aberden to London Heathrow for their big journey back to our home in Doha, Qatar. Shona was very organised, timely, personable and kept me updated and at ease during their entire journey. She sent me lovely vidoes and photos. I never worried when they were in her care as I knew at heart she is a true animal lover and could tell she genuinely cared for our dogs. She liased well with our export company at LHR which took pressure and stress away from me. It has meant alot to us to have our dogs (one elderly) treated so well on such an arduous journey. Thank you Shona!
Our dog stayed with Shona for 18 days this summer and it was nice to see her looking healthy and calm on collection. We left our dog with Shona before for various periods of time. The drop off and pick up times are always suitable for us and our travel plans, which is very helpful. Thank you very much for taking a good care of Lola!
I have used kennel in the past and my dog never came out of it looking happy. This has definitely changed since I found Shona - he is happy to leave me and always comes back home cheerful and in a great shape. Shona is great with dogs, she takes them for a long river/forest walks and let them play in her garden once they are home. I recommend this service from the bottom of my hearth to all dog owners
Wouldn't find a better place or a better person to take care of my pet. Shona is just perfect with dogs! She's so friendly and calm, they immediately respond and trust her guidance. It's the most reliable service one can hope for.
I am so happy that we found Shona to take care of our 11years dog Toto during vacation time. She is a very kind person, has a good understanding of dogs and their habits, regularly sharing photos and videos, so you feel connected with your pet even you are miles away. It feels like our dog had a great vacation too, he is happy and healthy after being one month without us :) Highly recommended Shona if you need professional whom you can trust!!!
My Pug chase loves to visit with Shona. We board with her throughout the year and chase is always happy and content when we pick him up. He really enjoys the walks with the other dogs, we know because Shona always sends us video clips of their adventures. Highly recommend her.
We are very grateful for the service Shona provides for our dog, Cookie for the past 18 months. Shona takes Cookie for a regular walks and also home boarding when we are away. Cookie has develped a special bond with Shona. We are very happy and thankful for the service she provides us.
Genuinely a five star service: We are absolutely thrilled with the service we receive from Shona at Aberdeen Pet Services, from the very first visit, I had a really good sense of how calming she would be for our highly strung but loving cavapoo. Before we met Shona I was extremely concerned about leaving Hamish with anyone, he is a nervous dog and enjoys being part of a family and being cuddled, we couldn’t even consider kennels for him and by luck we found the perfect solution. Reliable, friendly and extremely flexible, we wouldn’t consider anyone else. Hamish always comes home, happy and healthy, well exercised and well fed, what more could a dog need 😊
We moved our 4 dogs & 3 cats from Scotland to Morocco, Shona was a huge help In helping with both transportation & going through the customs in 3 countries, but as an animal lover also she cares. and would recommend her services. I cannot thank Shona enough for her help :-)
Alan had our two dogs Lucas and Toffee for 10 day. Was like a little holiday for them, a home away from home. I would totally recommend for your furbabies.
I phoned at ladt minute to take my dog as I had to attend a meeting next day in Livingston at short notice. He luckily had a space as he is restricted to the amount of dogs he can have. I dropped Minnie our 12year old Yorkshire Terrier off with him at 7am. Picked her up at 6.30pm same day she was happy obviously did not miss me one bit I was very happy with Alan's srrvice and would not hesitate to use him again. His fees are more than reasonable.
This is definitely the best dog boarder/ day carer in Aberdeen. Great service, dogs come home looking happy and healthy.
Alan was unfortunately too full but he sent me a list of other licensed places to try. Top man.
He is a lovely man and my dog likes him woof woof woof
Rosie and Ben run a fantastic dog walking service in the Aberdeen area. After approaching them, Rosie and Ben arrange a meet with our dog to understand her nature and ensure she was placed with a group that complimented her behaviour. Collection and drop off was seamless and professional. Our dog always came back happy and looking like she had a great time. We were happy in the knowledge that she was safe and being well looked after on her daytime group walks. Thanks Rosie and Ben!
Biscuit loves going with paw patrol for adventures. They take really good care of her and she always comes back tired :)
Slow to reply . Disappointing.
Our dog Toby has been going regularly for around 2 years now and we wouldn’t put him anywhere else, he loves it and always comes home super happy (and tired), Mark and the team are always so friendly and nice and you are always greeted with a smile.
Left our two dogs here, one of which is ageing multiple times now. Great staff
I didn’t exactly want to write this review considering that it’s negative but I have tried contacting K9 Care on multiple occasions by calling the phone number provided on the website, I have tried on multiple days and different times which they are open and not a single time did anyone pick up or call me back. Quite disappointed as I was looking forward to leaving my dog with them. On the services that they provide I can’t make a comment as I never had a chance to use it due to never having my phone calls answered.
Mark, the owner, has extensive experience with dogs and operating kennels/day boarding facilities. He takes the time to learn the personalities of all his charges and matches them in small playgroups accordingly. It's nice knowing my pup is in a small group and not a giant pack of 20-30 dogs. Since starting my pup at daycare, I've seen a huge boost in his confidence and he's learned how to play nicely and respect other dogs. Highly recommend!
We've been sending our dog there since they opened. He absolutely loves going and always comes home happy and tired after a day of fun :)
Such a fantastic service, my dog loves going there. Always comes back exhausted.
Excellent place.
My dog loves it they are well looked after
The best and most professional walker I have ever seen. None better.
Taimi has been a great cat sitter for my cat! She is flexible, caring and always sends little updates letting me know how he is getting on when I am away! I would definitely recommend Archie Cat Care
Taimi was very patient with my timid rescue cat, and looked after her very well. I had peace of mind knowing my cat was safe while I was away. Would definitely recommend.
Taimi is very pleasant and professional. I was very pleased with the way in which she looked after my cat and kept me informed with photos etc. I will be using her services again!
Taimi from Archie Cat Care Ltd has looked after our cat, Miso, for the past few months and has been the perfect companion for him while my partner and I are away. We get lots of photos and videos to keep us updated with how Miso is and Taimi is very happy to play with him and keep him happy. Taimi is flexible to fit in with our schedule and has helped out a lot. I would highly recommend Taimi and Archie Cat Care for cat sitting.
Taimi always takes great care, sends a lot of updates and has been available at short notice many times. Would 100% recommend her
Highly recommend Taimi for giving excellent cat care to my old boys while I was away. They hadn’t been left for a couple of years and I was concerned they would fret. However Taimi spent time playing and fussing them as well as performing all the usual cat care duties. It’s clear she loves cats and got to know my boys characters which showed in the photos and videos she sent me while away. Brilliant work! Thanks K.
Taimi took great care of our cats while we were away, cannot recommend her enough. Had plenty of photos and updates every day, going above and beyond with care and advice.
Taimi has now looked after our cat Hestia several times and has been nothing short of exceptional. She spends lots of quality time with her, and sends us plenty updates so we don't worry. Whenever we come back Hestia is a happy and well loved kitty. Taimi is also easily contactable and responsive, she has helped us out in a few tight corners when cat care had fallen through at the last minute. She is now our go-to for short breaks. Hestia loves her!
I was very anxious to leave my kitty, but Taimi was great. She has such a gentle mannerism which is so helpful for scaredy kitties. I got updates and videos from her every visit. I would recommend Taimi’s cat sitting services.
Taimi was fabulous from the start, she cared for our 2 cats at short notice and provided them with every care, playing with them, grooming them as well as feeding etc. we received photos and videos throughout. Taimi loves cats and they love her, even my very shy cat was playful and confident with her. I would highly recommend Taimi, we returned from holiday to very happy and contented cats.
