Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

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.
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
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.
Our review is written by Steven (house owner, host + my father) + also by Kim (the daughter). Written by Kim: This was our first house sit since the passing of my mother in late Dec 2023. I was helping my father Steven (whose profile it is) manage all the emails + try + find a great house sitter + came along Gretchen’s profile! Not only is she a cool cat + someone you might want to get to know, I found myself quickly talking to her. I shortly found out her profile is just a glimpse of how interesting she is but talking to her was so much better! She is a world traveler with many experiences + stories to share. We quickly became conversationalists who could talk forever + probably will continue to do so! Thank you TH! She is easy to communicate with + continued the consistent communication all along our journey of having her as our *first* guest after my mom’s passing. It was clearly a time filled with anxiety + sensitivity so there were some sensitive topics to go over + Gretchen got it right away. A few of our rooms in the house were off-limits (as they housed my mom’s things) but we reassured her the house has ample space for her to enjoy + there are many lovely outdoor spaces to boot! When she arrived she felt she was in paradise + really relished in the outdoor beauty + the indoor coziness. We were happy to share it with someone who appreciated it so much! She also was very understanding with the fact that both my dad + I would both be involved as we both handled different parts of the stay. Me, writing + setting up the Welcome Guide + would go over the situation but then upon her arrival my dad would take over + answer any questions mostly during her sit. The good part of having 2 people is she had accessibility to us both, in the case she needed it + sometimes it came up! She juggled all the communication oh so well. My mom usually handled most of the logistics so this being our first time we were nervous something would come up we might not know but it didn’t! It was new territory for us + we wanted to make sure she had everything. Gretchen handled it all with such ease, seamlessly, really respecting our wishes/desires + taking all the information into her hands + making it seem easy on her end to do so. She was easy to coordinate schedules with! There was a gap in her 1st + 2nd sit but everything went seamlessly even when my flight had a day long delay. She was able to coordinate schedules with me arriving in between, then leaving, my dad arriving different days + us extending the trip too. It all worked out! We were all a good team! She absolutely loved our older cat, Benny + he fast + furiously fell in love with her oh so easily. When I saw him, he looked oh so loved + after saying hi to me went over to ‘her’ bed + slept there waiting for her to come back. She sent many pictures, videos + even cute creations + toys she made for our Benny + it was obvious the house + our Benny were her first priority. She even asked us if she could help prune our flowers/shrubs, something my mom used to do + honestly it was an honor to hear her ask that. She was welcome to set up her art studio + play away. She was very communicative when our house cleaner, landscape gardener + house manager showered up for different reasons. When I arrived back for a short stint before she came back the 2nd time our mail was so well organized it was an assembly line! She also offered to take down our xmas tree (as we were a bit behind in taking down our xmas decorations) + she was sensitive to the fact that we were adjusting to a new normal. Thank you so much Gretchen! You made our first sit in a long time so seamless + such a relief that we are ready now to host again. We only wish we could have more Gretchen’s! (She’s also a super talented artist!) Written by Steven: Overall, Gretchen has been an absolute treasure. She has fulfilled our goals for a house sitter perfectly - she took good care of the house, great care of our treasured pet, Mr. Benny + took care of the grounds such as watering a few plants + trees. She excelled in all the above + is welcome back anytime I will be out of town in the future.
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
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!
The best doggy day care in Hull! Riley absolutely loves it here, he has been coming for 10 months now and after a terrible experience at a previous day care which landed him being rushed to the vets I can say whole heartedly that I am always at easy when he is at Dalton street! The lovely ladies are very knowledgeable and switched on, the love of dogs is clear and it shines through! I cannot recommend them enough
The only place I will let Dave go. He is so well looked after, he loves visiting his friends and fuss from the lovely staff there. Dog groomers on site too which is incredibly handy. We love that we can relax knowing he's in good hands and having fun.
Took my two puppies here today for their first session after the initial trial. They absolutely loved it and its fantastic they have a dedicated puppy section to allow their confidence to grow before going next door with the big boys and girls. My other dog Maeve has been going for a few years now and also gets groomed here. I cannot praise the staff enough as its very clear they are passionate about the dogs in their care and all my dogs absolutely love going.... in fact.... they don't often look back at me when they go in, that is testament in itself. Keep up the good work. Love Maeve, Dougal and Islay x
Such a amazing place! I highly recommend if you want to send your pup/dog to a daycare whilst you work or attend a event, really fast responses. Send you updates of your pet through out the day, the ladies are so lovely that work there and are highly professional. I honestly can’t recommend this place enough, worth every penny. My pup comes home each time very happy and one tired boy. X
Laura is AMAZING! I can't cope well with my doodle, he is really woolly and also big. By the time he goes for a groom he usually has a lot of matts but she doesn't judge and she just gets on with it. I honestly don't know how she does it, but she works her magic! He went in there today looking like a polar bear and came out looking like a beautiful new born seal. Can't recommend her enough ❤️
The best place ever for your little bundles of joy. My lovely older whippet Sky has been going for six weeks now. Never a struggle to get her there. When you pick them up you can see all the dogs interacting, no walkie talkies to release your dog. The staff are lovely, Sky enjoys herself and is always exhausted by the time she gets home. If you need to leave your dog with anyone then this is the place. EXCELLENT.
I haven’t any hesitation in giving 5 stars!! Cooper, my 1 year old cocker spaniel has been in the little dog lounge a few weeks now. He’s a sensitive little soul but is growing in confidence thanks to the staff. They are brilliant, patient and really flexible. They all take their time to get to know each dog and it’s obvious they are all passionate about what they do. My working hours can change daily and it really helps that there is so much flexibility. Cooper loves it, he’s happy and tired!! A tired puppy is a well behaved one! Cooper also had his first groom here. He hates being caged so I was very wary about other groomers. No cages here. I was over the moon with his pamper. The Dog Lounge was recommended by someone I knew and wouldn’t hesitate to pass that recommendation on. Thank you The Dog Lounge x
I took Daisy to The Dog Lounge following a recommendation and I'm so glad I did. She always comes home very happy and sleepy! She's tiny so I love that they have a little dogs section where she goes. The staff are fantastic and I know I don't have to worry while she's there. Couldn't recommend more!
Hector loves spending time at the Dog Lounge. and has been coming here for a few years. Jane and Lauren give a first class service and treat your dog as special as they do their own. They are really friendly and provide excellent care for all dogs. I strongly recommend here to anyone.
Been going here with my 3 dogs for years. Laura does the best grooms and my dogs love her, she treats them like they are her own. All the staff at The Dog Lounge make the place feel like home for the dogs 🐕💖👍🏻 …
It is very rare to find a cat sitter, that's reliable, punctual, passionate, trustworthy and flexible. If you want to leave your " family member " in good hands, look no further. Danielle is the person you are looking for. I can relax on holidays knowing my cat is looked after with the same love as I was there. THANK YOU DANIELLE! 10*
Danielle is excellent with both our dogs and communicating with us. Our dogs Rufus and Toby love Danielle and get really excited when they see her. The dogs get given plenty of exercise and we get given updates on how the dogs are doing which is really reassuring. I would highly recommend Danielle if your looking for someone professional, reliable and who you can trust with your furry best friends.
After being let down by other dog walkers who where always late or messing me around, I was starting to think I’d never find anyone decent or someone I could trust but then a friend recommended Danielle and I’m made up with the service. She does a great job walking my dog and I know I can rely on her. Wouldn’t use anyone else now.
Could recommend Danielle enough she is amazing Senna loves her to bits
We've been visiting Noahs Ark Day School for around a year with our Romanian Rescue, Frank (was Basil). Laura is our trainer and is amazing with Frank, he loves visiting her and with her patience and support she has built our confidence to support Frank and to understand how his unique personality works. Thanks Laura for the amazing job you do and we look forward to learning more in the new year Tanya and Frank 🐕🐾💖
Noah’s Ark is the best place to bring your dogs! Our girls love the place, the pups and especially the staff. They always have the best time and are looked after to the highest standard of care. Auntie Leanne is the best 🥰 …
We adopted 2 dogs from Romania and contacted noahs ark to help with training and walking on lead Laura was so lovely with us and the dogs gave us lots of good advice and is a very good trainer would highly recommend noahs ark .
Took my puppy molly to day school here at noahs Ark for the first time on Monday and she loved every second of it she is usually nervous around new people and other dogs but she came out so happy I was updated with photos and videos and even got a report card for her about her day and on social media too I highly recommend noahs Ark the staff are lovely and really take care of the dogs she's going back for her second day next week!
Love this place, and so does my dog 😊 He can't wait to get in the door and loves all the staff, who are so good with him. I know he'll have a great time and that he's in good hands. Highly recommended. …
Oakwood dog trainer (gorge)has bought our dog on in leaps and bounds.He also gives you lots of tips .highly recommended by me. Starting hopefully obedience trg in a group if my dog takes to it. Well this is our boy .gorge is still trg but we are getting there
Our Springerdore Lexi has been "student "of Oakwood/Noahs Ark since she was 6 months old and she is now three.The staff there are brilliant especially Grace. On a couple of occasions when Lexi was not well Grace and Leanne were on it straight away and made her comfortable and safe until she could be collected. The staff know all the dogs personally and are totally dedicated. They know the dogs character and personality. Lexi is very special she means the world to us and we wouldn't trust her care to just anyone. That's why we trust Noahs Ark to take care of Lexi and lets face it Lexi wouldn't be so keen to get to school if she didn't love to go. Big thanks to Leanne, Grace and all the staff xxx Kris, Phil and Lexi
Noah’s Ark is THE best place to take your pup, if you have any doubts, I can say personally they have been the best thing to happen to my puppy. Her confidence has been boosted massively, she’s socialised, well behaved and comes home happy and content. All of the team are incredible and so lovely, they truly care about each and every dog that comes through their doors, plus you get to see what they’re up to during the day via pictures and videos on social media as well as get report cards and health checks. My puppy is a better, happier dog for it :)
My little cocker loves it here! He is nervous of new people but after leaving him for his trial for 2 hours, he was wagging his tail and clearly loving all the staff here - something he doesn't usually do with people even when he's met them more than 5 times!! He loves his days here and is always sleepy when I get him home. The report cards and health checks each time are also really nice to see. Couldn't recommend more!!!
Absolutely brilliant. Leanne,Grace and all the staff have a tremendous knowledge of dogs and their behaviour. Our dog Lexi always has a great time there and we know she will be well looked after and safe.
Buddy spent a long weekend while we were on holiday. He was booked into multiple group sessions and for a groom at the end. When we picked him up he was happy and full of beans. Home from Home accomodated us in storing the car crate, giving us more bootspace for our journey and accepted Buddy's food to keep his diet the same as it is at home. Both greatly appreciated. Unfortuantely after 4 or 5 group play sessions we only have two pictures to see the friends he made and the fun he should(?) have had (attached), only receiving these after constant reminding (no pictures were available on Facebook or privately). I requested the brands used during Buddy's groom (assuming it was this) as he came home with a rash on his tender bits, later moving to the base of his tail. Fortunately our pet insurance offers free video vet services (Home from Home did offer to cover any vet costs etc to their credit). I am still waiting for the product names almost 4 weeks later, in order for us to avoid them (the products) in future. All in all ok which is disapointing as I was expecting much more.
Took care of my two cats for a month or so and I was able to visit during that time. Quite spacious and tiered cubicles that they were kept in together and monitored daily. Obviously a little noisy with other cats and dogs in neighbouring surrounding cubicles and buildings but my cats seemed quite settled regardless. Would recommend.
I took my dog to there family friendly dog show and of course she won best in she. That meant she won a couple of nights stay. So we used our prize. I can definitely say I highly recommend home from home. The staff was super with bea and she went in very happy, came out even happier. Love that they post photos on their Facebook for them having fun. Thank you we shall be returning 🥰🐶🐾
We often use these kennels for our 2 Frenchies and Border Terrier for both daycare and overnight stays. Before their first visit I came to view the kennels. They are clean, spacious warm and comfortable. The staff are always professional and welcoming too. There are also lots of additional services you can book for your pets including grooming, extra walks, 1-1 time etc. When my dogs come for a stay they jump up at the door and push it open themselves, clearly looking forward to it. I love it that I can easily book a stay online via their website. I think that is really helpful rather than having to ring up to book.
Took our 3 year old border terrier Hamish for his very first overnight stay😧...I was soooooh apprehensive and nervous they would not care for him at the level I expected. All my initial fears were completely resolved as soon as I met the staff, each and everyone, verbally and non verbally made me realise Hamish would be cared for. When he was taken to his Hillside room (much quieter area), Saffy reasured me even more just how much the staff cares, I was happy she was taking him for his play session. Hamish was only there for one overnight stay, when he was collected the following day, he was bouncy, energetic, his little tail going like the clappers....yep I was very happy 😊. It's a wonderful caring environment to take your precious gargo!! We are planning to access the day to socialise with other dogs.
This was my dog's first experience of staying in kennels, so we were really apprehensive. I needn't have worried. Home from Home has a very professional feel and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Ringo had a 3 night stay and, when I picked him up, he was absolutely fine; like he'd never been away. I would definitely recommend.
Just want to thank everyone for taking care of Bella our Frenchie whilst we had a week away in Turkey. She has come back full of beans and can't thank the staff enough for looking after her. Grooming team have done a great job aswell
Friendly Staff, great facilities, my dog gets excited when she knows she is going. Couldn't ask for better!
As a truck driver take a rigid only ,I took an artic very tight ,but had a couple of banks men. Great team here very helpful.
Brilliant first time I’ve left my dog in the 6 years of having him and they looked after him like he was there own defo be using again
First time ever putting my Betsy into Kennels. She wasn't very happy when I left but seems like she settled fine. She has been very well looked after and was excited to see me when we picked her up. Really enjoyed seeing the update of her on Facebook. The staff are very friendly and made leaving my dog even easier. Thank you to the lovely lady who talked me through the paperwork and happily answered all my questions when I dropped Betsy off. 100% recommend Prestige. Fantastic people who really know how to look after your Dogs.
First time leaving our 7 Yr old rescue dog in kennels so was very weary on leaving her. Was impressed with the cleanliness and helpfulness of staff. When we collected her she seemed happy and content and happy to see us. Would highly recommend prestige kennels and will definitely use again.
Staff were ultra friendly and accommodating (thanks again to Shane, Shaun...hopefully I've spelt that correctly!) But, WOW to that lovely lass whom took him in with such care and attention, walked me through the paperwork with the same amazing demeanour and suggested she work with Max and take pics while his fur mummy finally took a break to reset from my demanding yet amazing boy...Thank you sweetheart, sincerely! Max snubbed me when dropped off, but sooo excited to see me upon my return, typical of my now teenage pup! 🤦🏽♂️🤣 ..Was told not to concern myself re: kennel cough need due to their highest 5 star standards: could not be MORE assured my playful sensitive Lurcher was in the best hands in Hull after plenty of research...thank you!!! You guys are honestly excellent, Max can't wait to see you all soon, thank you for your amazing aftercare, utterly astounding! With the utmost thanks from Max and I! ☮️
This place is safe and well maintained. I was happy with the service they provided and photos of my dog having a daily walk was great. Book it with confidence your 4 leg family member will be happy and taken care of.
Lovely people. Easy to talk to and gives a relax feeling as soon as you enter despite the fort nox look at the front. Even that gives a safety feel so you know your doggos are secure from the public. When it was time to pick them up they didn’t want to say goodbye. This was our first time using kennels and we are happy with our experience at Prestige Kennels and would highly recommend them.
Prestige took our 6 month old pup for the night at short notice for extra hours when we were let down for the night! It was his first night away and looked like he’d had an amazing time! He was in love with everyone there and was well looked after. It is clear they care for the dogs and love what they do. When picking him up we booked in another week later in the year! Absolutely recommend.
Very good would recommend.bullseye and Bailey stayed at prestige boarding whilst we were on holiday. Came home to them very happy not wanting to go. Staff great also
Used prestige for first over weekend Thursday to Tuesday well pleased with everything kennels are very secure and staff are all friendly extremely polite. Home now and settled for night.
I left my chihuahua Teddy here for 9 nights and I was nervous about leaving him this long but I picked him up today and he was fine obviously he missed me but he has settled back home ,lovely staff and nice kennels will definitely leave him here again
Staff are friendly and very welcoming and my dog loves it and I will be using them again
Have been taking our Springer Spaniel to Muttlins for over 6 years now, for short stays and long stays up to 1 month. You know your do loves going when he gets excited going, he just loves going and is always happy. Highly recommend these kennels, the dogs get out on the pasture for plays 2-3 times every day.
Amazing place, beautiful kind hearted people who care for all dog's and have done so for my 3, 2 rescues 1 of which is super nervous of a lot and the other we've had from a pup has never been in kennels (she's 9). However, all have taken to the people, environment and never faded or 'moody'when come back home. They are super happy, comfortable and excited when we pull onto the Muttlins drive and are ecstatic to see Rachel, they obviously love the large enclosures to run in too, both inside and out!! Highly recommended xx
My lovely Springer spaniel Reggie goes to day school every Wednesday. He is a very anxious dog and doesn't like kennel environments. However at Muttlins he loves going. Rachel is fantastic with him and he is now really excited to go. Also the prices are really reasonable too. If your dog is dog friendly they all run around and play together. If not they are let out on there own. He comes home shattered every Wednesday and happy. The dogs get walked or let out to play every 2 to 3 hours for around an hour at a time. I will not hesitate to board him there when going on holiday. I would highly recommend. 🐕🐕
My two pugs come here when we go on holiday, they love all the open space to roam and explore and they get the home comforts as well. The staff are excellent and you can tell that they love dogs and they are in good hands when you leave them.
Rachael is such a lovely, caring, understanding lady. She really loves the pets that stay with her. Our 2 dogs are looked after to a high standard. The kennels are spotless
This is the 2nd time I've left my dog with Rachel, apart from family, I've never felt so comfortable leaving my pooch with anyone except Rachel at Muttlins. As soon as we get out the car my dog is so excited, she loves the open spaces and being around the other dogs. I'd recommend Muttlins to anyone it's definitely a home from home for my doggo. 😍🐕🏡👍🏻🌟
I can't describe the animal paradise that this place is. ! The owner is literally the dog whisperer. X x I fully recommend. X
Great kennels. Dogs boarding overnight also get to interact with those at the day school which means your dog has plenty of exercise. Our dog always comes back shattered after expending all her energy playing with the other dogs
I wish I could give this place a zero but wouldn't be able.to do a review. Appalling dirty place, rude owner. I would never leave any dog of mine in this womans care. All I ask is that you do your research before leaving your dog with them.
Ii have a German Pointer who has been coming here for a while now he can get a bit anxious and is not good with new places but Rachel has always taken care of him and giving him lots of reassurance . He loves going and think he probably would stay there forever. He loves the big field as he enjoys been out doors . I cant fault it . Rachel is wonderful 🙂🐕
Vicky and Paul, the owners of Purrfect Tails, are genuinely passionate about animals and and they always go above and beyond to ensure that my pets are happy and well-cared for. I use Purrfect Tails for regular group dog walks and occasional pet sitting for my dog and 3 cats. I never have to worry about any of my pets when they are with Purrfect Tails because I know that they are in good hands. Vicky and Paul send regular updates with pictures via WhatsApp, and it's clear from the photos that all dogs on the group walk are having the best time! They get taken to a range of walks around the local area and I know that my dog absolutely loves it when she sees Vicky come through the door! I would highly recommend using Purrfect Tails for your pet care needs. They are reliable, compassionate, and affordable and I can't imagine anyone better to trust with my pet care needs!
If you are looking for a dog sitting/walking service then look no further than “purrfect tails” It’s run by a lovely couple who really care about your dog and I highly recommend them.
Excellent service with great care of our dogs
They were on holiday
Good service
I’ve taken my dog here since October 2023, I’ve used the day school, training and grooming services available and have been thrilled with all services. My dog absolutely loves the dayschool and is always excited when going in, I love seeing the daily updates on the social media and the report card I get at the end of the day seeing what she’s been up to. The staff are always helpful and treat my dog as if she was their own. It has really helped grow her confidence and improve her socialisation skills with other dogs and people. I also take her to 1-1 training sessions were each session is tailored towards my dog and her needs, I get valuable information and advice that I can then use myself to help with any of my dogs needs. The grooming staff also have helped with desensitising my dog to getting her nails cut and are really patient with her and take it as slow as she needs. I wouldn’t choose anywhere else to send my dog as I know the staff clearly love the dogs in their care and are always willing to help in anyway they can.
My little pooch has been coming for 3 years since he was a pup and he absolutely loves it. The staff are absolutely amazing and can't do enough. Creche reports are great, there's always little events to look forward too, and they make such a fuss on birthdays, Halloween etc.
I have 2 dogs who go to Noah's Ark, both are well looked after. Both dogs are keen to get through the door in a morning. The staff are friendly and helpful and are obviously dog lovers. You receive a report card each day with information on what training etc has been done and numerous photos. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Enid been coming here since she was allowed to (after her second set of puppy vaccines). She is disabled puppy with leg issues and was brought up by the veterinary nurses so very good with humans but socially awkward and shy with other dogs (esp since every puppy wants to jump on her dodgy shoulder upon meeting her) She got given the one to one time she needed and came out of her shell with the kind and gentle staff supervising her dog-to-dog interaction. When she had her general anaesthetic and needed specific post-surgery rehab, i printed out the post-surgery instructions and the team shared the info amongst the whole staffing team so everyone was well informed on her rehab protocol. And she got given the 1-to-1 time she needed during that rehab time despite being at day school. This is the dog that RUNS toward the school when we go for walkies around the area and wriggles with excitement when she sees the school staff. 5/5 stars
Took my unruly Sprocker Spaniel to Noah's Ark as a last resort as he was very difficult to control. Fortunately Phoebe told us and showed us what might help. This was not a miracle cure ...but was just what we needed to get a element of control. After two 1 hr classes, he is a different dog and just about does what he is told. He is still work in progress but we are both less fustrated on our walks. I have to give a massive shout out to Phoebe who has set both me and Frank on the right path. Thanks Phoebe you are brilliant and a joy to work with. Best Wishes Keith Tina and not least Frank... Ps will be back for follow up classes...
Bertie loves it here!!! We visit twice a week and he runs through the door each time. The staff show him so much love, patience and attention. We noticed the staff learnt his name after his first time - this showed us that they care.
Kevin has been going to school since he was 6 months old and absolutely loves his days with you. I would highly recommend Noahs Ark Dog Day School, the staff are all wonderful and look after our doggies so well. the training and skills that your dogs will learn is brilliant. thankyou as always Linzi & Kevin xx
Very inexperienced staff, lots of young girls who don't seem to stay in employment long. Picked up my dog and he had a slice right down his nose. I was still charged for the day and no explanation was given by any of the staff. Might be OK with the vast number of cockapoos which seem to frequently use the place but not skilled or experienced enough to look after young large breed dogs. Very poor 'explanation' of what supposedly happened by business owner over the phone. Wouldn't use if It was the only place available.
Paid £25.00 for the training for today. Tried to get in touch and it kept going to the answer phone. One of the buses never turned up. Couldn't manage to get there on time. I want to rearrange the appointment and use the £25.00 and they said I lost the money because I never turned up for the appointment. Never use them ever again. Not a good place.
My puppy has been warmly welcomed and very well looked after by Leanne, Grace and Jasmine at Noah's Ark Dog Day School since his very first timid day there. There is a structure to the dogs' day which includes training sessions and the dogs are checked and observed throughout the day. A lovely touch is a daily report card so owners can read how their dogs have been doing and each day there is an award for Dog of the Day! I feel that everybody at Noah's Ark genuinely cares about and for each and every dog that goes there and they know each dog's individual quirks and personalities. I would highly recommend Noah's Ark as a safe, caring environment for your puppy or dog.
Bess loves it when she has her stay here! The staff are so friendly and keep us updated (photos attached were her having fun running around on their huge enclosed field) definitely recommend for peace of mind when you need a place for your dog to stay :)
I couldn’t be more happier with the service, libby was lovely and kept me reassured the hole time with plenty of pictures and updates, Darla absolutely loved it and it was her first time in kennels she had her very own sofa and tv in her kennel. I would definitely recommend bringing your pooch here.
Friendly, caring & gives confidence that dogs in their care are really well looked after. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
Regularly use these kennels, our dog is well cared for and loves Jo and Libby, I have no hesitation in recommending this family run business.
Fantastic boarding kennels. Jo and her team treat your animals as if they were her own. Excellent level of care and reasonably priced. My dogs love their holidays here
Fabulous kennels, the owners go the extra mile and make your dogs stay very special. My Labrador is very anxious, however she now has a new best friend and loves to go. The best boarding kennels I've ever used.
It's impossible to speak too highly of this place. The mum and daughter owners take every care to look after their guests as if they were their own pets. Acres of space for dogs to exercise in a secure environment, the business is in a very quiet location, with very few outside noises, so it's perfect for nervous animals. This is the only kennels that I've ever known where my dog goes in, not just willingly, but enthusiastically, and has a good look round before settling in her own kennel.
We used this kennel and at first we were happy, but then for some reason the owner was very rude to my husband. Very shocked. A lesson in customer service skills is needed.
Really lovely place for our dogs to have a really good time and being well looked after. The people are very nice and helpful, wouldn't go anywhere else. 5 stars!
Very friendly people who love dogs. The facilities are great, plenty of space for the dogs to run around and play and comfy kennels for them to stay in. Deffo recommend.
My sister booked her two dogs in for 2 weeks. The place looked lovely and the dogs certainly appeared to have enjoyed their stay. I was interested in viewing the cattery. It looked quite nice too. My sister has booked again for next year.
We have been using Woodlands Kennels for our Dogs for over a decade. You know the place is good because when we turn off at Coniston towards the kennels, our Dogs get excited as they are going on 'Holiday' to hang out with some other doggy friends. They have always been open and honest during difficult times (e.g. During covid, and regarding amount of people who 'miss bookings' etc). They now have a £50 deposit for bookings which gets obviously taken off the bill at the end. This is to ensure bookings are not cancelled without reasonable timings. Not a problem for us as we book to reserve our spot when we need it. There is also a slight discount when two dogs share the same kennel (as ours do). The staff are always helpful and polite, and over the years have gotten to know our pets quite well. The only difficulty you will have is finding the place...however there are a few more signs these days compared to when we first started using them. Highly recommended by us as pet owners, but also Bobby and Sansa our two dogs who stay there.
Our dog had a great time whilst we were on holiday. They even gave him a mini groom before we collected him. He is booked to go back next year. However, there is no place like home and your own bed.
So after leaving our 3 dogs(Alvin, Niska and Blue) and our tortoise (Shell) with Woodlands for a week we couldn't be happier, the staff looked after them so well, even sent us photos, they are the only place we will leave our animals and even though we rang every day they were happy to update us and never got tired, they really are great thank you to Jacky, Kira and the full team who helped look after them all so well.
Our family dog has been going here for years. She absolutely loves her time here. She has a doggy dpa day regularly when she needs a groom. Has boarding up to twice a year. We can't recommend enough. This kennels was originally recommend to us by our vet so you can't get I high enough recommendation!
First kennel stay for Lola our 2 year old lab and she was absolutely fine and well looked after. I emailed to check she was ok as never left her before and they contacted me really quickly and reassured me. Would recommend
Me and my partner were worried about leaving our cat for a week whilst we were on holiday but turns out we didn't need to worry! Lovely people who clearly care about what they do and didn't mind us calling a couple of times to check on her! Went to pick her up and she was happy and healthy! She made a mess of her room though 🤣 will definitely be using again!
Nancy returned to Woodlands whilst we went on Holiday this week . Always have peace of mind that she will be looked after like one of their own . Nancy goes in wagging her tail and comes our wagging her tail 😊, and as anxious Pug mum that’s such a relief . …
Picked David my rottweiler up today after a 2 week stay and he was happy and smelt lovely after his bath.So thank you to everyone who took care of him
Avoid i have left my dog picked up today with and infection on his genitals but being told he was lovely and calm - how can it be?? Fuming is an understatement
On meeting Caroline for the first time with my dog Sally, I felt really happy straight away. It was the first time we had to leave her with anyone, but my word, Caroline goes above and beyond to make you feel at ease about leaving you pet. She adjusted to our very stubborn dog brilliantly, making her just as happy as we were. We would recommend Caroline 100%, you can see the passion she has for what she does. Good luck for the future.
From meeting Caroline for the very first time I knew our 2 year old labradoodle would be in excellent safe care. Caroline is simply fantastic, her love for animals is clear to see and her expertise put me at ease on leaving Martha for the first time. During our 2 week holiday we received regular messages and video updates which were wonderful, I know Martha enjoyed the level of home comforts and exercise she is used to. I’d highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for home boarding.
Caroline took amazing care of my nervous rescue dog, Reggie. He can be a bit timid with new people but he settled in with Caroline and her dog brilliantly and had the best time! So grateful as it was the first time I’ve left him with someone outside of my family to go on holiday and it gave me such peace of mind to see pics and videos of him having the most fun time ever on walks every day and asleep on her sofa at night, he really made himself at home! Thank you so much for taking such good care of him, I will definitely be bringing him to for another little holiday! :)
We are more than happy to recommend the services of Caroline at CGR petcare. From our initial meeting we could see Caroline is an animal lover. As soon as our little Sprocker sees Caroline she nearly wags her tail off! We receive regular updates via WhatsApp while away which are always greatly appreciated with prompt communication. We have already had our dog stay with CGR three times and have further stays booked through the year.
Caroline was amazing looking after our cocker spaniel Winnie. We had contact throughout Winnies stay with daily pictures and videos. We can’t thank Caroline enough for taking care of our pooch whilst we were away. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be using CGR Pet Care again.
It was our Cocker Spaniel's first time here a couple of weeks ago and she had a great time. We received texts and videos whilst we were away reassuring us that she was well looked after. Thoroughly happy and would highly recommend
Highly recommend Caroline, she was great with my border collie that can be very tricky to deal with. He loved being there and settled in on the first day, overall very pleased with her services.
Our loopy terrier had a lovely holiday with Caroline and got spoilt rotten!
