Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
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!
Kevin and Cristal are extremely likeable and recently looked after our 15 month old Labrador, Luna for a 4 night stay....Luna was extremely well looked after and obviously enjoyed her time with them...would highly recommend to anyone looking for a trusting dog carer
Kevin has looked after my girls for years, from young until now old. He is very easy to deal with and always reliable. Can definitely recommend Buddy’s Pet Care
My regular dog sitter was fully booked, so needless to say I was quite nervous about finding a new sitter for my furry baby while we were supposed to go on vacation. After intensive search for a new host, I got in touch with Kevin & Crystal from Buddy's Pet Care. Chester usually barks at strangers, needs a bit of time to warm up to people. As soon as we got at their place for a meet and greet, instead of barking he was all kisses and jumps of joy. I realized that Chester will be in good hands during his 3 weeks stay with them. During our vacation, I received updates with photos and comforting words to let me know that Chester was doing great. It was obvious that they care about dogs - loves and treats them as they are their own. Kevin and Crystal are beyond awesome. Thank you very much for putting me at ease and for taking such a good care of our boy. Highly recommended for all the pet parents. 5 Stars review, very well deserved. We have booked already Chester’s stay with them for our Christmas vacation.
Needed a dog sitter very quickly in the area and found Buddy's using google maps. Crystal had my Border Collie, Mya straight away for me, no questions. She's an absolute life saver. Thank you so much. Xx
Kevin and Cristal are great. Really knowledgeable and lovely - super accommodating. I picked up my two dogs from an overnight stay and they were very happy - they had been brilliantly taken care of and they clearly really like Cristal, Kevin and Buddy! Total peace of mind.
When my parents were unexpectedly taken ill at very short notice, Kevin was able to collect my parent’s puppy and look after him for us, while they recovered. Initially this was to be for a long weekend, and they ended up having Toby for two weeks. Very reliable, and totally flexible, nothing was too much trouble for Kevin and Crystal. Toby has obviously been extremely well looked after, and has come home happy and well. We will definitely use their services again, and recommend to all our doggy friends.
Our dogs love it. They are well cared for and happy to go each time! They also offer boarding if you need it. We left our dogs for a week while we were away on a trip that wasn't dog friendly. They were happy and healthy and while pleased to see us visible happy to be at buddy's.
Jan 2023: Our dog has just spent the last 2.5 years with Buddy, Kevin and Cristal. Our dog would bound out the front door, so excited to see them - they've been a huge part of his development. Kevin and Cristal treated our dog like their own and gave us advice when we asked for it. Freddie spent many nights and a few weeks whilst we went away, without a single issue. So sad we have now moved away from the area, but hoping our dog gets his holidays at Buddy's still. Thank you Kevin and Cristal, you're amazing! Nov 2020: Our dog absolutely loves his days with Buddy and the other pooches. We haven't used Buddy's for any overnights yet, just daycare - but we won't hesitate too.
Kevin has looked after our outdoor rabbit on several occasions and he is always reliable, trustworthy, does an excellent job and often goes above and beyond. When it was very hot he put ice bottles out for the bunny to cool down against! We will continue to be using him and thoroughly recommend his services for any pets.
We used Kevin from Buddy's Pet Care to pop in & look after our cat whilst we were away on holiday and we couldn't be happier with the service! Very personable service from start to finish, with everything thought out and more - nothing was too much trouble & our cat well looked after & more importantly happy! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or use the service again in the future.
Teddy looks forward to his weekly walks with Cherrie and his dog pals and has the best time!! 🐶 Cherrie has been great, brilliant communication and years of experience so we 100% trust her to look after Teddy when we’re not around. Thank you Cherrie. …
Our dog Ella adores Cherrie! She goes on some wonderful adventures, has made lots of doggy friends and I know she is very well looked after. Cherrie always follows any additional instructions I may leave out on certain days and I trust her to enter my property for collection and drop off.
Cherry has been walking Winnie and Wilma for 12 years now and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough. Totally reliable, trust worthy and clearly loves the job she does with both dogs eager to go out with her each day. You Wouldn’t want anyone else looking after the fur babies!
I can thoroughly recommend Cherry and her dog walking service. Lyndsy gets very excited every morning when she sees Cherry and her van arrive, Everything waggles, backside as well as tail! She arrives home tired out.
We have been using Cherrie for several years. She is super reliable and amazing with Winston. Not sure he always wants to come home! Cherrie cares about him as if he was hers which is so reassuring when you pass your best friend to someone else's care. Can't recommend highly enough
Cherrie has looked after my cats every time I go on holiday for the last 5 years. She adores animals and is 100% reliable. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.
Cherrie is a lovely lady who really loves the dogs. She takes them to lovely places. She is reliable and honest. I would highly recommend her.
We used Tracey for cat sitting when we were away for a weekend. Tracey was good at giving us updates on how everything was and asking what times would be suitable for the visit. We felt comfortable knowing our cat was being taken care of, and on the plus side, despite being a shy cat, he actually came out and even played with Tracey for a bit! Would definitely be using We Love Pets and Tracey again 😊
I have been using We Love Pets for over 2 years now. Tracey & team are fantastic and I have peace of mind for our cat every time we need to be away! Our cat is scared of strangers and Tracey patiently built trust with Aria always ensuring she feels safe and has someone to play with. They are professional, trustworthy and flexible! I cannot recommend them enough! :) Thank you so much!
Our dog has been walked by the team at We Love Pets for almost 4 years. Unfortunately, we are moving out of the area so will not be able to stay with them. They have been absolutely fantastic. Tracey is really quick to respond and meets pretty much every request we have had. We have had walks around Christmas, at weekends as well as our usual weekly walks. Our dog has always been well looked after and has enjoyed his walks with the team. Thanks so much!
We Love Pets have been helping with visits with my two since they were puppies. I cannot recommend Tracey and her team highly enough. Our dogs are so happy with the attention they receive on their daily visits and I am reassured by the reliability and friendliness of the team.
I have recently started using We Love Pets and already I can't thank Tracey enough for looking after my dog Bailey. She went out of her way to shuffle round her own schedule to accommodate walking Bailey - after meeting with Tracey and seeing how well Bailey took a liking to Tracey it really put my mind at ease. I would definitely recommend We Love Pets, they are so reliable, flexible and friendly. Thank you so much x
Polo and I cannot recommend Tracey and her team enough. Not only is Tracey amazingly professional but a lovely person too. She's not only completely and utterly reliable for weekly walks she also goes out of her way to help at short notice. Her team are absolutely wonderful with Polo and he adores his best friend walkers. Tracey has also gone out of her way to find the perfect doggo walking buddy for Polo. I recommend Tracey to everyone as she treats Polo with such love and what more could you want from the person you entrust your dogs care with?!
I have used We Love Pets for nearly five years now and the team have really taken the stress away from me with managing pet care with a busy work schedule. Tracey and the team are professional, friendly and reliable and go above and beyond to help me out, even at the last minute. George my pug is always happy and calm when I return from work and he adores all of his walkers. I would recommend this service to anyone needing professional pet care and particularly for the personable and warm approach from the team. Thank you so much!
Tracey looked after my two cats while away on holiday. She popped by beforehand to meet the cats & get oriented with their routine (feeding, letting outside, etc.). She sent us pictures & updates while I was away. I highly recommend Tracey as she provided wonderful service, great communication, and not to mention very reasonable pricing.
Tracy has looked after our Sausage Dogs on a number of occasions and they both adore her. They are quite high maintenance and demanding, she is always patient and affectionate with them. She has also looked after our cats, gerbil and Guinea pigs. We trust her implicitly and wouldn't have anyone else caring for our pets. Highly recommended.
Tracey was a lifesaver! I couldn’t recommend her and the company enough. She looked after our two cats while we went on vacation for a week with such care. We had regular updates with pictures everyday and came home to happy cats. Will absolutely be using again for future trips. Thanks Tracey!
Treacle is a regular Rags & Bert’s attendee. He was struggling with being left home alone having lost his companion Yorkie & was slightly reactive having been attacked by an XL bully. He’s now been with Rag & Bert’s every Friday for months and loves it! He’s like a new dog. Despite being an older boy, he’s made so many friends and I am told has the energy of the puppies - running about ! A proper ladies dog too. Many dog places said no to Treacle as he’s not had the snip (cannot undergo general anaesthetic with a heart murmur). But Rags & Berts were happy to have him. Thank you to Sarah and everyone at Rags & Bert’s, couldn’t be more reassured when I leave him in your trusted hands (he runs in and doesn’t look back to mum now 😂) and I love the photos uploaded daily so I can see he’s getting on OK from my office ! 😊🐶 Ellie, happy dog mum! X
Latest review: Rag and Bert's recently upgraded their grooming services which I booked after a short doggy hotel stay. The Grooming Pod by Sophie is a new best in class grooming service and I couldn't have been happier with the service and treatment my dog received. Sophie has lots of experience, is super friendly and is a great addition to the Rag and Bert's team. I have always enjoyed the "postcards" from Rag and Bert's during hotel stays and to get these from Sophie for my groom was a pleasant surprise. My top tip is to add this service before picking up your dog from a doggy hotel stay - it is super convenient and the price is competitive for Reading. Thanks again! (updated photos from The Grooming Pod). Previous review 1 year ago: Huge, massive thank you to Sarah at Rags & Bert's for sorting out a last minute doggy hotel change for my dog due to a work trip change. Sarah was able to add in some extra dates and move things around to accommodate my changes without fuss and with a super friendly approach! A total weight off my mind knowing my dog is going to have a great time at Rags & Bert's, just like always, and I am able to attend my work trip fully focused knowing she is in great hands. 10/10, 5 start, gold standard service once again. Cannot recommend Sarah and Rags & Bert's highly enough! Thank you!
Our dog is always really well cared for, the staff are polite and accommodating and I love getting the email updates while she's there! She's usually quite a shy dog who doesn't like new places but she's always happy to spend time here!
Great place friendly staff our little Blu loves it every time we take him we feel he’s very safe and in good hands A*
Sarah and every team member we've met have been so helpful. You can see from a mile away how much they love our pets, always calling him by name and seeing how quickly he's grown. I've never been more confident of leaving our little fur baby in someone else's hands. Thank you to the whole team!
Excellent doggie hotel. From meeting the owner to placing my dog into their care, it's nothing short of excellent. Bailey gets doggy daycare as well as a overnight stay and the key thing is I know he is safe and having fun while I'm away on holiday.I have recommended them to my other friends with doggies...can't say I've done that with any other dog hotels/kennels in the past!! The staff are lovely and Sarah who does the bookings is always helpful and kind. Oh and Sophie the groomer cuts his hair....so what's not to like!!
Have previously left a review for Rags & Bert’s as my girl goes twice a week to socialise and have great fun and as I said previously I cannot praise the staff and facilities highly enough. Now they have opened the Grooming Pod I wanted to recommend Sophie, as a groomer she is excellent (and very nice to talk to). My GSD looked and smelled lovely after her visit to Sophie. We have had a bad experience with a groomer in the past so it’s wonderful to have someone who really knows what they’re doing.
It is a fabulous place, and my spatial dog loves it, the being I’ve dropped him off for three days. He always looking forward to going in, in the morning, and I collect him in the evening after I work. He crashes out exhausted as it seems he enjoys being there. I would recommend going back there again, and I’m giving this a full five stars
Daisy has been attending Rags and Berts for a couple of years so the staff know her well. I’m informed she’s well behaved at the setting but on the lead with me she’s been showing signs of anxiety. Dave at Rags & Berts has been helping me with tips on how to reduce her anxiety (and therefore mine) when we’re out and about. Dave encourages positive rewards and staying calm with our fur babies. He supports the adult by asking the right questions, making suggestions and encouraging you to keep making those little changes which are greatly improving our walks together.
Brought both my dogs here for a groom, they were able to do them both at the same time which is great! They’ve come out looking beautiful and smelling divine! Such friendly, dog orientated staff couldn’t be more pleased!
My Frenchie Tilly has spent the week at Charlie’s Place while I was on holiday. I was sent lovely photos which reassured me that she was having the best time. They also bathed her and cleaned her ears. I was so excited to collect her. She was very pleased to see me ( for 2 seconds) before trying to run back in! I have to accept that Tilly loves Charlie’s place more than me! 🤣 I would highly recommend Charlie’s Place to take very good care of your dogs. 💕
Used Charlie's Place for an afternoon and overnight stay as we were going away and couldn't bring our dog. Has a great setup and made us feel that we were leaving our dog in very safe and loving hands. We received an update on how she was getting on whilst we were away and was told what they got up to when we returned. Our little dog was absolutely knackered the following day so obviously had plenty of activity and play time whilst she was staying. Would recommend to others and would definitely use again if required.
Absolutely amazing. Our Dog Lola was quite anxious around other dogs after and we had struggled to get her re-socialise her after lock-down. Toni and the team were brilliant and slowly and methodically introduced Lola back into a pack. She now loves being in and around other dogs. As a hunting breed she also needs a lot of stimulation and the games, challenges and activities the team do with the dogs has her fully engaged. She always comes back to us chilled and happy. Thanks very much. Highly recommended.
We've recently moved to the area and I was delighted to find Charlie's Place. Toni, the owner, has been nothing but warm, welcoming and accommodating since we met - puppy had a trial day and came home after a fabulous day of playing, socialising and muddy walks. She was exhausted! Pups is booked in regularly from January as I know she will be well looked after and have a great time. Toni is a tremendous woman and what a legacy she is building for her little boy in whose name this wonderful endeavour is being carried out.
Our dog stayed at Charlie's dog place for the day during half term. They did an excellent job taking care of her, and she had the best day. The team is quick to reply to messages and booking was easy, on the day there was a warm welcome and we felt happy leaving our dog. We got an update during the day, and at pick up heard a little of what our dog had been up to. An excellent personal service from a team who are all dog lovers. We would highly recommend.
What can I say a lovely, calm and very clean place.Toni is amazing, Reggie loves going there xx
I needed someone to look after my dog and move him to England when I had already left. Annie did it all including getting a new pet passport. The dog arrived happy and healthy. Wonderful service.
It’s the perfect home dog boarding service. Exactly what I needed. They could not be more professional.
I have been using we love pets for over 1 year with a short break when my puppy spent time with my trainer! My four legged son absolutely loves Sarah and Jade and so do I! They are simply the best, the service is top notch we have a combination of walks and home visits for when I’m in the office! They are much more than dog walkers or sitters since they have taught him how to be off lead , great recall, social interaction and confidence! They do not pack walk and we have a tailored service! I am super fussy and they always ensure we are happy ! I fully recommend them
Our dog was well cared for on his walks. He was also matched with dog friends, so he always came back satisfied. Our rats were cared for (home visit) while we were on holiday. They were given free roam and all the attention they could need!
Highly recommend We Love Pets!!! Jo, Flora and the team are absolutely brilliant. We first started using them to help care for our pet rats when I needed an operation which meant I couldn’t clean out their cage for a while. We asked them to continue their visits as the service was so good, it made a real difference (and meant we had more play time with our pets!). We also used We Love Pets to support with feeding and playing with the rats during holidays, and had complete peace of mind knowing they were well looked after.
I can't recommend We Love Pets enough. The lovely ladies that go "walkies" are all very friendly, absolutely love their client's dogs and always bring my dog home very happy, tired after a good long walk and having enjoyed the socialising. The walkers build up a happy relationship with their dogs and my dog is SO pleased to see whoever arrives. At this time of year it gets rather muddy and whichever walker takes my Labrador out, always hoses her off and dries her so I don't have to - what could be better? This all began while, earlier in the year, I was on crutches after surgery but I decided to carry on for a couple of days a week once I was back on my feet. It has been entirely worthwhile for my dog and me. If anyone needs help with dog walking don't hesitate to choose We Love Pets you won't be disappointed.
Jo house sat for us while on holiday and I cannot recommend her and her team enough, she took a lot of time before the sit to understand the needs of my sensitive dog. My dog is an energetic collie and can be reactive, Joe was not phased at all by his extra personality and took amazing care of him, she took him to the doggy park and she didn't even mind him jumping into bed with her, even though he's not small! Jo is a warm, friendly person who immediately makes you feel comfortable. I always feel nervous leaving my dog but with Jo, I didn't worry at all. She kept in constant contact and my dog showed that he trusted her straight away by showing her his belly. I wouldn't hesitate to have Jo or one of her team take care of my dog again, everything was immaculate when we got home and most importantly, my dog was happy and calm. Thank you!!
Our bulldog is a very nervous boy and takes a while to trust and come out of his shell. He was struggling a little getting used to all the members of the Reading West team so Jo and the team went out of their way to change schedules around so that he had a consistent person coming in to let him out and have a play. Jade is now his absolute favourite and he’s letting his full kooky personality show - we’re so grateful for Jo and everyone’s understanding and patience with him to get him settled. It’s reassuring to know he’s in such good hands, thank you!
Jo and Lynne are such lovely ladies and so obviously love animals. Right from the start we felt very comfortable leaving our two cats in their care. Our cats are very shy of strangers, but Lynne very soon won them over and we had lovely videos and photos sent to us via WhatsApp every day of our holiday, showing how relaxed and happy the boys were with her. She also very kindly fed our tropical fish each day and even took our bin out the night before bin day. When we got home, our cats were so relaxed, which was a first in the 12 years we've had to leave them behind while we go on holiday (and having used catteries pretty much every time we went away). Our kitchen was also left clean and tidy, which was great to come back to at the end of a long drive home. We will definitely ask We Love Pets Reading West to look after our cats whenever we go away from now on, and recommend them to anyone needing a pet sitting service. Thank you, Jo and Lynne! <3
I’ve been using We Love Pets Reading West for around 8 or 9 years now and they are just amazing. They have walked and taken care of all 3 of my dogs, and have even stepped in to do urgent vet appointments for me. They are flexible, reliable and all the walkers are so friendly, and they all love my dog so much (as he loves them equally as much!) Would highly recommend!
I had to look for a new cat sitter after my previous one moved away. I found We❤️pets Reading West after a google search and after reading the postive reviews met with Jo. I instantly liked her and made me feel confident about leaving Mabel in her care. I have just come back from my second trip which was 2 weeks for which Jo and her team looked after Mabel. I was incredibly anxious about leaving Mabel for 2 weeks in the winter as she is used to a lot of company, and I barely slept before the trip, however I neednt have worried, Jo and Sarah kept me updated daily with pictures and videos which really helped me to relax and even helped Mabel open her Christmas present on Christmas day! Would definitely recommend and will use again for my next holiday! Thank you :)
Jo and Lynn are fantastic - really putting our minds at ease when we are on holiday, that our wonderful cat is well-cared for, given plenty of cuddles and is happy, relaxed and spoilt while we are away. Jo and Lynn recently helped at short notice when we had to go to hospital for the arrival of our baby girl - we were in the hospital for longer than expected, but they kept up the excellent care of our cat, with regular updates. They were super flexible throughout and just took the worry of looking after her away at a crucial time. Thank you for all you do Jo and Lynn - I would highly recommend you to anyone with a beloved pet!
Samantha is fantastic with our two and they always come home after walks and care happy and healthy. She has the highest standard of care and professionalism while always treating the dogs like they are family. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for super dog care.
It was our first time getting a cat sitter and it was a great experience. Sam is a true professional and a good person. We went away to Scotland for two weeks and got daily updates from her whilst we were away about our cat. Coming home everything was perfect, they got along really well and the plants which we agreed to be watered were in perfect condition. Will use again!
My dog Max is always so pleased to see her and spend time under her care. She is easy going and flexible to fit in Max where she can. She keeps me updated, sends lovely pictures. She provides a lovely family atmosphere for Max to be part of when staying. Her passion and love for dogs is so clear! And Im always reassured and happy for Max to have a sleepover or prolonged stay with Auntie Sam!
Sam has walked my dog for just over 10 months now and Kerry (my dog) is always so happy to see Sam and loves her walks out with her other dog buddies. So would highly recommend.
Rudy had a fabulous stay at Pet Whisperers hotel for 11 nights. We had regular updates, videos and pictures of our Boy, all were really appreciated! We could relax knowing that our boy was well looked after and constantly stimulated during the day, tired and comfortable during the night. We would recommend Pet Whisperers to take care of your four legged family member while you are on holiday.
Oxford Pet Whisperers are an exceptional team of caring and dedicated professionals whom I completely trust with our puppy. The heartwarming videos they share on Instagram always brighten my day, showing all the happy dogs playing and enjoying themselves. They provide a wide range of activities and enrichment experiences, and you can even book additional services like baths, tail trims, and full grooming. Amber absolutely loves her time with them and has grown so much more confident since she started attending. I would highly recommend Oxford Pet Whisperers to anyone looking to enhance their puppy’s socialisation. Or to anyone needing day care facilities due to work schedules.
Our golden retriever Ella is a regular daycare visitor and this year we tried the doggy hotel facilities for the first time. It gave us peace of mind as we knew she will be comfortable knowing all staff and environment, and she absolutely loved it, I don't think she was very impressed when we turned up to pick her up 5 days later, she wanted to carry on with the fun! We had a couple of updates on how she is getting on which was lovely to have. And you can see what your pup is up to during the days on Instagram account. Would definitely recommend this over regular kennels!
Lovely introduction. The business has an amazing concept with everything to make the dogs and the owners happy. So much space and all is clean and safe. Even the air gets filtered. My dog didn't want to come with me home after 30 minutes there.
once again Oxford pet whisperer have outdone themselves my little baby Frenchie had the time of his life actually came back with some extra manners. They also managed to squeeze me in a short note as I had to go away thank you very much for everything you’ve done.
We booked our dog in for a puppy groom last year. We looked online and saw that it was going to cost £10 but were surprised by hidden charges and ended up paying around £35-£40. The female groomer was not friendly towards our dog and did not even ask for his name, then was rude when we arrived back a few minutes late to collect him. He did not look well groomed and certainly did not look happy in his post groom photo (see pic). Upon returning home we found out why as the groomer had cut him under the eye and did not tell us. It looked like she had just washed the wound and covered it up. Luckily it did not become infected. We were very displeased and frankly disgusted with the service but due to other factors in life getting in the way at the time we never reached out to Oxford Pet Whisperers, hence the late review. We would certainly not return nor recommend their services to anyone else.
From the start, they have been very accommodating, professional and so friendly! We love the amount of time our pup gets to play and socialise with her friends as well as the first week report card and ongoing photos we can see on social media during her visits! A really well-run and dog centric business who we will be sure to continue to use 👍🏻
All I can say is that this company provides a fantastic service - my 16 week Frenchie had the time of his life playing and mixing with the other dog and staff. thanks for all the support and kindness you gave to my little boy.
Thank you so much for another fabulous groom on Friday. The family commented on how silky soft his coat was and he smelt fabulous. Teddy is so happy at OPW he goes off happily and comes home content and in need of a good long snooze. Having a bath/groom at OPW is a must, especially if the children/grandchildren are home for the weekend as Teddy looks and smells great. Roll on his Christmas groom . This is Teddy asking the cats to smell his lovely clean coat.
Couldn’t recommend highly enough! Jamie, Natalie and the team are amazing. I’ve been sending my dog Cooper to oxford pet whisperers for a year and a half now since he was a puppy and I wouldn’t dream of using any other daycare/dog walking service. They are experts in their field and take such good care of Cooper. He comes home tired out for the evening after a day at daycare and as soon as I turn the corner in to the car park to drop him off, he gets so excited! The pick up and play service is great too as it allows me to be a lot more flexible with work! The daily updates on Instagram are fantastic as it allows you to see what your dogs been getting up to in the day. Couldn’t give a more glowing review ⭐️
Fantastic and caring service. They looked after our 3 guinea pigs for a week. Went above and beyond. Sent us pictures everyday. Honestly I think the piggies may have had a better holiday then us. Will definitely be using again. Cannot recommend them enough
Melissa is wonderful and I completely trust her to take care of our pets when we're away. I found Melissa online when we got our mini lop rabbits and I'm so pleased that I did. We opted to have her come to the house while we were away to avoid too much disruption as our rabbits are quire young. This also had the added benefit that it didnt look like we were away as Melissa brings in any post and will open and draw curtains for you if you would like. Melissa has a really calming presence and completely put me at ease. She has had rabbits in the past and I felt really comfortable asking her for advice and knowing that our rabbits would be well looked after. Melissa sends update photos as well so you know that your pets are safe and happy. I would definitely recommend her services if you are looking for someone to care for your pets while you're away.
I left my cat in the care of Melissa for two weeks while we were on holiday primarily because I didn’t want the cat to be lonely while we were away. Melissa was extremely diligent in looking after the cat catering to her needs by feeding her but also making sure the cat was happy and loved by spending some time with her every day. Melissa sent me regular updates to keep me informed about what was going on. She showed herself to be extremely reliable and trustworthy. I would definitely use her again. Very friendly and professional service
Melissa is just brilliant. I'm a first time owner to a Lab puppy and from the start she has always been so helpful. Made me feel at ease owning a dog and has also given me additional advice and info to care for my pup. My puppy rushes to the door in excitement when Melissa comes as she knows she is going to get spoilt and have loads of fun. Happy puppy, happy me!!! I can't recommend Melissa highly enough - She is so caring and trustworthy, I can't think of a better person to come into my home and look after my dog. Melissa is just the best.
Melissa is fantastic. We brought her our rats a few times (with the cage and all their stuff). We felt more comfortable if someone was around them rather than just visiting. Melissa took great care of our boys and shared regular updates to keep our minds at rest. The boys were always happy, clean abd well taken care of when we picked them up Now, Melissa will be visiting our cat at home - she was very flexible with arrangements, even though it was a last minute change for us. We trust her coming in and caring for our baby like noone else.
We have been looking for a solo dog walker for our 4 year old lab Bertie for a while now, I then found Melissa’s details. As soon as i met Melissa i knew she was perfect for Bertie, professional and friendly and you can see she has a great passion for animals! Melissa is very flexible and Bertie is always well walked and sleeps most of the afternoon once he is home. I highly recommend Melissa if you need a dog walker!
Melissa was amazing. I booked her last minute and of all the enquiries I had made she was one of three that quickly responded. My cat is a bit fussy with whom she will go to for cuddles and she loved Melissa. Melissa kept me updated whilst I was away which was great. I will definitely be using Melissa again and would not hesitate to recommend Melissa.
I completely trust Bridie and her team looking after our Fox Red Labrador. He is collected and dropped back to us by Clare in the dog bus. He was reluctant for the first few times but now trots off to the van and can’t wait to jump in. We only wish he could talk and we could hear about his wonderful day with his new friends.
