Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
"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.
This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.
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!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet 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!
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.
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!
Laura did a fantastic job looking after our cat for the weekend would definitely use friends for pets again
Our dog loves his time there.
Absolutely recommend fir tree pets hotel, it was our first time leaving our Frenchie when we went away for 2 weeks. They made us feel so welcomed and made us feel at ease knowing he was going to be well looked after. They kept us up to date with how he was getting on and sent lots of photos. Very happy and highly recommend would definitely use them again.
Just picked up our dog after our holiday, it's was Lunas third stay at Fir Tree Pets Hotel and she is always happy to stay and I'm confident by the way she is when we collect her she has been well looked after and enjoyed her stay. Would recommend to anyone looking for a boarding kennel for their pet.
My two dogs stayed here last week whilst I was on holiday and they were looked after brilliantly. I was kept updated with how they were and they were truly spoilt there to ensure they were happy. Definitely recommend and will be leaving them there again without a doubt.
Our two dogs stayed here last week whilst I was on holiday and they looked to have absolutely loved it. We were kept up to date with how they were doing and the staff couldn't do enough to make sure we were happy. Definitely recommend and will be leaving them there again without a doubt.
This was the first time I used fir tree but it definitely won’t be the last. My 9 year old jack Russel seemed very comfortable and very well looked after. The staff are lovely and put my mind at rest from the moment I met them. Thoroughly recommend
Not very good, I won't be using again, my dog absolutely stunk of old urine and his bed had to be thrown away when I picked him up, I have used other kennels before and never had this! My first time using this one and never again! Also my dog was very stressed when I picked up! Never using kennels again, he will be coming on holiday with us in the future. I just had a email saying this is fake! I can assure you that it not! We had our dog stay in September
Our beautiful girl stayed for a few nights and had such a fantastic time. She was so relaxed under the experience of the lovely staff. They were very helpful in guiding us on preparation to the stay and kept in touch with updates. We were thrilled with the conditions and the love they showed our girl. She came home very relaxed and a happy dog. We’re so grateful to the team for their fantastic work. She’s all booked in for her next stay!
Our two dogs spent a week here. They aren't used to kennels but they warmed to the team at Fir Tree and the whole stay went very smoothly. Dogs now snoozing on their sofa 😂 …
We booked our 8 year old rescue in for his first ever stay in kennels for a 2 week stay( holiday booked way before we adopted him) with the previous owners, so I was very surprised when I took our boy for his holiday to find Lauren ,Charlie and Kirsty to welcome us. We'll...what a lovely welcome, Lauren,Charley and Kirtsy seemed pleased to meet and welcome him into their care. While he was staying with them we had regular updates and photos too to help put our minds at rest, which we were very grateful for. Communication was excellent and on our return they were very accommodating due to our flight was being a little delayed, we couldn't collect when we had first agreed. Lauren was so helpful and seemed to take a real shine to our lovely lad. We are very thankful, we will return and we highly recommend. Thank you Fir Trees Pet Hotel. put a neurotic new mum(me) at ease.
Our two dogs stayed for two weeks , they both seemed very well when we picked them up , but they both smelt of stale urine , and so did their beds . We had to buy new beds for them , as the smell did not wash out of the beds , even at 60 degrees !!! Overall a very expensive experience . We won’t be using this kennel again .
My dogs have been going for walks with Zoe at Happy Hounds, for the last four years. Zoe is an excellent dog walker, and genuinely cares about the dogs, and gets to know them well. I trust Zoe with our dogs,and they love her, and her dog too. The joy they show when they are with Zoe, and the other dogs is heartwarming. Zoe goes above and beyond for the dogs, and to make any changes, if required. Her communication is excellent. Zoe has driven to our house, some miles away, and carried out drop in visits, and also fed our two cats, who also love her. Zoe has also carried out drop ins on our dogs, and taken them out for walks, whilst we were at a wedding. Nothing is too much trouble. Zoe is very accommodating. What we love too, is that Zoe keeps her Facebook page, up to date, so we can see pictures and videos. Zoe is a great photographer, and may only use her phone, but really does get some fabulous snapshots of the sessions, and the walks. We would wish for none other than Zoe, and we all love Zoe and Happy Hounds, and it’s a very big part of our family.
Highly recommended!! We trust Zoe implicitly with our Doug!! She has been walking him since he was a puppy and he absolutely adores her and the other happy hounds!! Zoe has also done home visits for Doug when we’ve been out at work!! 💛 …
Lovely friendly and reliable dog walking service ! My dog loves walking with the owner & her dog as well as other doggies … know she’s always in good hands & see lovely photos of the walks she goes on . Five star service & would highly recommend.
Amazing with our dog. He lives every minute
Great, reliable dog walking service from a really kind and caring professional; my dogs are always so happy to see Zoe and are very well looked after
Reliable and capable dog walker. Not only do I recommend her, so does the dog and that's what is really important.
Debbie recently looked after our ducks & chickens for 10 days whilst we were abroad. We got daily updates with photos, which really put my mind at ease as I was so worried about leaving them. She was amazing, and she really did look after them for us. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting services.
I highly recommend Pet Sitting Bridgwater. Debbie is the most caring person I have ever met. She took great care of our two cats while we were away, giving them the best care, treats and lots of petting 🥰 I was so impressed by her professionalism and reliabity. She was sending us daily texts about how our furry babies are doing, she even went the extra mile and bought them treats and toys. Special bonus the chocolates waiting for us when we returned home. If you are looking for a person to look after your precious pets look no further. Thank you Debbie xx
Debbie looks after our two cats Dotty and Ziggy when we are away. We highly recommend her she is Professional and passionate about our pets. She updates us daily with photos and messages. Reliable and very good value for money. Thanks Debbie for all you do. Trudy and Mike
Debbie is caring, efficient and professional. I have a nervous cat, and was worried about leaving her. I had no need to worry, as 'Moomoo' was very happy with Debbie... and she loved the cat treats! Debbie sent me daily updates and pictures. I will definitely be asking Debbie to look after Moomoo in the future.
We were concerned at first about using a service and a stranger to look after our nervous cat Mia, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. Debbie soon put our fears to bed and we couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after her. It’s a fantastic service and I’m so pleased that I didn’t have to leave Mia in a strange cattery. When we returned from holiday Mia was happy & chilled, all her food bowls were clean and plenty of water in her bowl. We will certainly use Debbie & pet sitting again and can’t recommend this service highly enough.
Debbie has walked my two dogs n I feel very happy with all she does for me , even on short notice. Only person so far I trust with them , many thanks xx will definitely use again.highly recommend her guys .
We know our cats are in safe hands with Debbie, she sends us photos and updates daily putting our minds at rest while we enjoy our holiday. Would highly recommend
Debbie just looked after Ione and Oliver for 5 days, she did a wonderful job all excellent lots of pictures sent to us house all tidy when we got back home Debbie is a real treasure excellent five stars
Debbie really went above and beyond, looking after my cats and my home as I would. Really helped me relax and enjoy my holiday. Highly recommended, the extra touches were unexpected and very much appreciated 🥰 xxxx
Thanks very much Emma for giving me 5 stars, really appreciated. Debbie :)
I have a nervous frightened rescue lab and the Cheddar team have been amazing with her - Liz takes her out about three or four days most months and has built an amazing rapport with her. Having used their dog walking service regularly for at least 18 months I thoroughly recommend them. Amy and team very flexible, responsive and utterly reliable. Thankyou
We have been using Friends for Pets for a number of years now and have always been pleased with their service. We have Cats, Rabbits and Aquatic Turtles, so a range of animals and nothing is too much trouble. Our Carer always goes the extra mile, whether it's picking dandy's for the bunnies or sending a text to say everything is ok. Without their trusted service a longer family holiday wouldn't be an option and we always come home to happy, well looked after pets.
Hi It was a real relief finding FRP when we moved to this area. We are very pleased with our experience. The ladies that we have are lovely and always leave us feedback on their experience with our pet. (Liz & Margaret). Due to our jobs and short shift changes, we often have to cancel and/or ask for somebody really quickly to help us out. We have been really lucky with this and find them really reliable. Often if they have no staff available the girls step in themselves and help out. We really appreciate this. They are honest reliable and trustworthy. I thoroughly recommend them to others.
I have used Friends for Pets on a number of occasions and always found them to be reliable and conscientious. My two tabby cats - Coppi and Willow - enjoy their visits and although Coppi is nervous(being a rescue cat)he has accepted the visits very well and will even allow grooming. I would highly recommend Friends for Pets.
I absolutely rely on Friends for Pets every time we go away. I have known the organisation for 3 years, and cannot fault the care and professionalism of the staff, they are simply wonderful, and very affordable. And of course, most importantly our pussycat Miss Millie is much happier when we return. She does not like to leave her territory, so it is a win-win deal :-)
The entire staff team take the best care of our dachshund ( annie) we get pictures of her on her walks and when she is at doggy day care. We feel they love her almost as much as we do.
We have used FFP for several years and have found them wonderful and the dogs enjoy their walks when we go away for a weekend or holiday and cannot take them with us. Would highly recommend them. Best of all the dogs like them.
Reliable, trustworthy and fabulously flexible. I am very fussy about who looks after my two - I have used them for years and will continue to.
Day care is brilliant, all the dogs are so happy.
Wish could give Avery 10 stars!!!! Maria accommodated my 2 dogs at extremely short notice and the level of service from the 1st point of contact was 1st class. The kennels are brilliant and safe, also Maria and Co walk the dogs (even sent me videos) which is reassuring to know that your loved pets are getting the same care at the kennels. The best staycation in north somerset by far and couldn't recommend Avery enough. My sharpei and cavapoo had the best time, thank you so much 😊
Both of my dogs recently had a trial stay at Avery, they were absolutely knackered when they returned home so they must’ve enjoyed themselves. Maria and Dave are great! Have booked in for another 2 stays later on in the year. Would definitely recommend. Nice to receive a video during their stay too, gives you that little bit of extra reassurance!
A really lovely, family run small kennels. I had full confidence our dog was having a lovely stay. Plenty of exercise and socialisation, and reassuring updates with videos of our lovely pup having a brilliant time! Would highly recommend.
Fudge wanted to say a massive thank you to Marie and co, he had an absolutely fabulous holiday with you guys. Highly recommend to anyone, couldn’t have been happier with your service!
We have used Avery & Co twice now for our two labs and would highly recommend them. Maria and Dave look after the boys so well, even sending us a picture of the boys enjoying themselves whilst we were on holiday. It’s sometimes stressful leaving your pets behind but with Avery @Co I know they are being looked after and we can enjoy our holiday with peace of mind.
Can’t recommend Maria highly enough! Due to various personal circumstances our dog had to stay here for over 6 weeks. Bailey is very nervous with new people so Maria accommodated a few meet and greets beforehand and went out of her way to make her comfortable. We got regular photos and videos and Bailey was clearly having an absolute ball and felt completely comfortable there. It was so reassuring to see and gave us complete peace of mind.
What can I say? 100% would recommend Maria and Avery Kennels. Above and beyond service, updated regularly, and my pooch came home happy and chilled! She’s hated kennels in the past, not eaten and returned home a ‘bag of nerves’ . Not this time! It is so reassuring to go away knowing the pooch is happy! For the first time, I didn’t waste my holiday worrying that she was stressed. A small family run kennels beautiful setting, a huge area for play time and beautiful countryside for the walks. Thank you soooo much Maria!
So happy with the service provided by Maria and Avery Boarding Kennels. She provided a real home from home for our nervous boy after we were badly let down by our previous kennels. Our dog was really well looked after, enjoyed several walks and even bonded with the gorgeous resident dog! Thank you guys! We will definitely be using you again in future! xx
Monty stayed at Avery Kennels in august, his first time in kennels! . Maria and gang were amazing, loads of love, care and attention given to Monty he came back home after his little holiday the same happy content dog he went. Thank you, will definitely be rebooking.
I had an operation and had to find somewhere for my 2 dogs for 3 weeks. Wow did I find the perfect place. Marie and her husband are dedicated to looking after your furry best friends like they were their own. Exceptionally clean kennels and a large enclosed play area for them. Long walks daily and video updates. I virtually had to drag them out to come home. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you.
Very good
