We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
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!
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.
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!
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
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!
We were away for several weeks and could not arrange for someone to stay to look after our cat Sheba nor did we want to put her in a cattery. A friend recommended Mel from Animals first and she did a fantastic job visiting daily, providing regular updates and even set up a camera to record Sheba's antics. Sheba is a shy little cat but Mel kept trying her hardest to entice her into playing and engaging but, when that didn't wotk Mel set up regular 'activity centers' which Sheba enjoyed greatly. Would strongly recommend this service for anyone needing a caring and kind service for their animal.
Mel has been helping care for my two older cats this year while I am away regularly with work. Max needs daily medication which Mel has been fantastic as administering. It takes all of the anxiety and worry out of leaving them when you know how well cared for they are. I receive photos and videos from each visit and I think they boys now like Mel and her bags of kitty toys more than they like me! I would 100% recommend Mel and the team to anyone wanting top class care for their cats.
Animal First is absolutely amazing! The wonderful lady took great care of my cat Orange. She showed great responsibility, love, and attention to detail. Not only did she provide care, but she also captured the most adorable moments through a series of heartwarming photos. Highly, highly recommended!
Mel is the most absolutely wonderful cat sitter my two cats have ever had. She came first to meet them and they took an instant liking to her. After the tunnel extravaganza she put on over one Christmas, she has now cemented her place in their hearts forever. I feel completely safe with leave Mel to take care of my two fluffy ones. She is really responsive and takes pictures as well so you can stay in touch with your cat while you are away. I can't quite emphasise enough how highly recommended Mel comes from me. I am sure if my cats could also have a vote they would give her five paws each. Reviewing as I can't remember if I've raved about Mel already. She is a total gem.
I first started using Mel not long after moving to Edinburgh with my 3 girls. I always got nervous leaving them when I was away but Mel is absolutely amazing and I’m now at complete ease whenever I go away. The girls are so well looked after and are most definitely spoilt rotten by her, she’s even won over Bailey who doesn’t warm up easily to anyone! (you can most definitely sense the disappointment when I walk back through the door). She’s always in contact and the amount of photos I get daily just put a cherry on top of everything! I can’t recommend Mel enough!
Mel is a great pet sitter. She brought lots of toys to keep my cats entertained and they sure had a blast. I got lots of photos and videos of them playing, too. The best measure of good pet sitting to me is, are my pets super needy when I return (meaning they didn’t get much attention) or are they simply happy? My girls were super happy and relaxed, so you can bet I’m over the moon with Mel’s service and will ask her again to take care of them when I go on holiday!
We booked Melissa to look after our cat for a week while we traveled abroad. She gave us updates (loads of photos and videos) every day. I'm pretty sure our cat had a better holiday week than we did! The care and love Melissa has for animals really shows and we're very glad we've found her. We would highly recommend Melissa as a cat sitter, and if our cat could type words I'm sure he'd say the same thing!
Mel is an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. I have two Bengal cats who need a lot of attention and playtime. She plays with them far more than any sitter I've had in the past, and brings a host of new toys for them to interact with during each visit. My boys are always excited to see Mel, and she sends me heaps of happy photos and videos of my boys playing every visit. Thank you Mel for taking such great care of my boys!!
My kitty was so well cared for and Mel really seems to love what she does! We were kept posted about how our kitty was doing and which toys she was enjoying. We were sent lots of photos and Mel was always fast to respond to any inquiries we had. So worth it!
Slightly don't want to recommend Mel purely for selfish purposes as I want to keep her to ourselves..! But honestly she's brilliant and our two cats definitely agree. Always a relief to know she's looking after them when we're away, with LOTS of photos of their adventures.
Sharon and Carly did an amazing job with my two silly cats. They loved playing with all the toys! They were very spoiled. Can’t thank them enough for giving me peace of mind while being away on holiday. I got texts and photos at every visit which I loved. I will definitely use them again in the future!
This was the first, but certainly not the last time we used Purrfect Paws to look after our boy. Sharon was prompt with communication and her “meet and greet” visit. The setting up of a WhatsApp group enabled Sharon and Carly to send daily updates and photos. This also showed us what a great time Loki had with his “Aunties” (especially the bag of treats and tricks!). He was well looked after and that’s what you want from a great pet sitting service. Highly recommended
These girls are amazing! So highly recommended. Both carly and Sharon managed to get my boys to play with toys and be so loving to them when they normally don't. Our wee gizmo is such a timid boy and by the end of the first week he was up giving the girls love which was so reassuring to both me and my partner. 1000/10 recommend for your fur-babies🥰
I was so nervous about leaving my cat for the first time but Sharon and her team were fab! They arranged a home visit for me to meet them and feel comfortable and of course for the cat to met them too. The team kept in constant contact with me on the run up to them looking after the cat and during too with lots of pictures and updates making sure I knew my cat had her medicine etc! They really made me feel at ease about leaving. I would highly recommend Sharon and her team, your animal is very well loved in the care of her ❤️
Fantastic with our cats , professionally done with a genuine approach from Sharon and Carley. Highly recommend and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Great app/web link portal to enter our cats details and easy to pay the billing.
Purrfect Paws recently looked after my 3 cats when I was away for 10 days. Sharon and her Team were wonderful and I can't recommend them enough. By the end of the time I was completely confident that all the people who were looking out for my cats knew them all very well. My cats were so cared for, played with and petted and fed well which is saying something as 2 of my guys have complex feeding requirements and dodgy appetites. I received photos every day and I was completely reassured that they were in such capable and loving hands. Thank you so much, Sharon, Laura and Cherie.
Our cat is very nervous around new people, but Sharon was very patient and understanding - we couldn’t have asked for more. This was our first time using a service like this but would definitely recommend. I especially loved the daily photos, a lovely touch!
I recently used Purrfect Paws Midlothian for my two cats. I have to say, from the moment I contacted Sharon, she was so professional and very helpful. Cherie came to meet us and our cats and discussed all the details. It definitely took all the stress and worry away as I just knew they were going to get well looked after. While we were away it was lovely to receive daily updates and pictures when Cherie visited. The cats were happy when we returned. We will definitely be using this service again and again.
I highly recommend Sharon and her team. Sharon looked after our cat, Jasmine, wonderfully; spending quality time with her each day and sending me updates after each visit, which allowed us to enjoy our time away without worry. Sharon has an excellent way with cats; Jasmine is usually very timid and nervous around other people but she took really well to Sharon. I will definitely be using Purrfect Paws whenever we go away.
What a great first experience using Purrfect Paws to look after our boy Socks while we were on holiday. We were updated daily with pictures of him having loads of fun with the ladies! He has been looked after so well and Heather, Holly and Sharon went above and beyond to make sure he was safe and sound. Even coming back late in the evening to make sure he came home, wee adventurer that he is. Thank you ladies, we will certainly be using again in the future! Emma
Waggy Wanderers have been fabulous helping walk/entertain our big fella while myself and the wife are out at work all day. You'll get a serious amount of videograhy and photos of your prized fur ball out and about on his adventures with Laura and his wee doggy pals too which is brilliant to see (few high quality snaps attached for example). Great service 👏
Laura pet sat my house rabbit for a week and was absolutely amazing. It's always scary leaving your pet with someone new for the first time (especially when they're quite sensitive and not particularly fond of people like my boy is!) but Laura was very competent and kind, and really respected his individual needs. I could tell from the daily updates she sent that he was comfortable and being looked after very well, which was so reassuring whilst I was away. She was an absolute godsend and I wouldn't hesitate to have her pet sit for me again in the future.
Laura at Waggy Wanderers Pet Care is simply amazing with our fur baby. From day one she’s worked with us to meet our dogs needs and has helped with his training hugely. Laura takes time to get to know the dogs and really does cater for individual needs. She’s also super flexible and always try’s her best to meet our schedule. I couldn’t recommend Laura more!! Added bonus that Laura shares updates/photos of the walks with us via WhatsApp and Facebook which is so lovely to see. Our dog absolutely loves his time with his Laura!
We have 2 rescue dogs that can be very nervous on walks, and Laura is great with them and they love when they go on their walks with Laura. Laura has been very flexible when helping organise walks to fit the dogs with my shift work, She is very trustworthy and I would highly recommend Laura to anyone.
Laura is amazing with our dog. He loves going for walks with her and we get great footage (video and photo) of the time they spend together. Laura is reliable and extremely trustworthy. An invaluable support to our family!
Laura has been, and is, a fantastic dog walker. She has been walking our dog since Lunan was just 12 weeks old (initially she did call-in puppy visits and then went from solo walks to integrating Lunan into group walks which are fantastic for socialising and tiring out our little one 😊). Laura communicates regularly with photos and videos to show how our dog got on that day/ week as well as checking in each week to ensure what services we need. Laura is incredibly flexible as she has changed days, times and even looked after Lunan in the evening time when events have arisen we have needed to attend. We landed so lucky with Laura and I cannot endorse her enough. She’s diligent, flexible and above all, a lover of dogs(and animals of all types): what else do you need from a dog walker?
Highly recommended. Friendly, professional service and the cats love her. Laura looked after our cats for a week, and we returned to two very chilled and happy cats, she even won over our male cat who can be very aloof with strangers! Laura sent us regular updates and even took care of watering the plants etc, we’ll definitely be using waggy wanderers again.
Laura is great with dogs. She is also very reliable and flexible. Overall she provides the great service!
Laura has been our dog Walker for over a year now and I really couldn’t ask for more She regularly checks in with us and shares the experiences our pooch has She is punctual, flexible and lets us know anything about our dog’s walk we may need to She comes highly recommended and you’d be as lucky as us to have her for your pet!
Our 1 year old cockapoo has been going to Meadowhill for day care once a week for just over 3 months. The staff are excellent, so friendly and happy to answer any questions you might have. Our dog bounds out to the centre without even looking back to say goodbye. I can see him running round with all his friends outside as I leave the car park. It’s really helped to socialise him too.
My black cocker spaniel Jory has attended Meadowhill for almost six years. Firstly because she and my grandchildren were very young and needed protection from each other. They have grown up to be besties together. My dog does have separation anxiety, no sign of that when she trots in for a day at Meadowhill. Staff are approachable and friendly and it’s a great place for Jory to spend a day with her doggy friends.
Cassi has only been going to Meadowhill for around 2 months and I was very nervous after a bad experience elsewhere, I can honestly say they are amazing and made me feel so confident on cassies settle in days. She now runs out the car every time as she knows exactly how much fun she is going to have socialising with all the other fab doggy’s!🐶
We have been using Meadowhill Dog Day Care just a few months shy of 7 years. The staff are wonderful with our slightly anxious cockapoo. They show her great attention and affection and this makes us happy leaving her as she gets to play with her other fury friends under a watchful eye. We highly recommend Meadowhill to friends and people looking for a reputable dog day care service, where the team are caring, attentive and interactive with the dogs. This is reassuring for any pet owner to know your baby is in safe hands!
Our miniature schnauzer loves his time at Meadowhill. Greeted with a warm smile and welcome. He happily trots off and is collected tired and happy to return. Staff always friendly, caring and knowledgeable. Very happy to recommend Meadowhill Dog Day Care.
I love going to Meadowhill. My humans have chauffeured me there for the past few years. I enjoy meeting my friends for a chase around the play area, my favourite spot is the tyre. The humans at Meadow hill are very caring and friendly. They help us take selfies to show our humans our adventures. I feel very lucky to play there and would give it five paws🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
River has been attending Meadowhill since she was 6 months old. She's now 3 and loves the time she spends here each week. She always comes home a happy tired girl after a hard day playing with her friends! Excellent, friendly staff who are always happy to help, would highly recommend.
Meadowhill is fantastic! My dog has been coming here for 2 years now and absolutely loves it. He always bounces out the car ready to go and play with his doggy pals for the day while I go to work. Highly recommend Meadowhill.
MAC absolutely loves coming here. He really misses his doggie and human friends when he’s not there. I fully recommend Meadowhill if you’re looking for day care 👍 …
Our dog Oryn has been going to Meadowhill for about 3 years now and absolutely loves it! He gets excited when the car turn the corner at the top of the road as he knows where he is going and can't wait to get out and run inside. They have an outdoor play area, a deck area and a cosy area inside, so the dogs have a great choice of what to do and a rest area when needed. The staff there are all very friendly, take great care of your dogs and they put regular posts on the Facebook page, so you can see what your dogs been up to. I would highly recommend Meadowhill.
Fabulous place for your beloved dog. My lab has been going for ten years and loves it. She comes home about 4pm content and sleepy then rushes out the door at 8.30 to the van for another day. Great staff and I have peace of mind when she is there. Don't know what I would do without them.
Amazing place. Loads of space in door and out staff are amazing... my puppy loves going..
Great place for our 7 dogs and a nice big enclosed field, good value.
If you want a happy dog this is the place to send it 🐕🦺👍🏻 …
Good set up with lovely staff
Really good and friendly
🥰 …
My super anxious, tiny little rescue dog has been going to the play center 1-2 days a week for about a year and he LOVES it. Loves the dogs but as he’s now an older gent, mostly enjoys cuddles from the lovely people who work there and watch the dogs. From pick up and drop off to a report card and pictures/videos, he is in such good hands with Alicia and her staff. I’ve also free-sleep boarded him with Alicia’s team (short weekends all the way up to 9 nights), and he is so taken care of and happy when he gets to have sleepovers there. Would definitely recommend!
*Day care* Alicia and her team are the best. Our energetic cockapoo puppy has been attending the day care since its opening day, and we couldn't be happier. Alicia truly cares for each and every dog, and takes the time to get to know them and understand them. What really makes her day care different (and better) than all others is that she (and her team) carefully and lovingly teach doggy manners to make sure every dog is comfortable and safe. The picture updates are a great bonus, too. Our boy comes home tired and happy every time!
We have a tricky little rescue dog who we never thought would be able to go to a doggy daycare… until we met Alicia! Now our dog goes every week to daycare, has started to play with the other dogs and loves to get cuddles from the staff there. We always know she’s in safe hands and will be securely dropped off at home. This has been a life changer for us! Thanks team!
My puppy has been going to Alicia's for a couple of months and he absolutely loves it. Personally, I love the little summary I receive at the end of the day with pictures and videos, and I feel safe leaving my dog in the Alicia's capable hands.
Alicia, Andreia, and the rest of the team are so good. They not only take such good care of our manic energy bundle, Smokey, but are always so communicative and professional. The stories and pictures they send about the dogs is extremely sweet and always a great part of the day. Best part of the day though is when Smokey comes home tired from all the rambunctious play. Cannot possibly recommend Alicia strongly enough.
These guys really care about integrating your dog into their walking group and they do in-walk training that helps the more nervous dog adjust. Andreia has done great work with Rusty and his general dog interaction has been much improved since the group walks began. Plus constant feedback and photos from the walkers. Thanks Alicia and crew.
Our little Leo loves his days with Alicia’s House of Paws and comes back well exercised and ready for a snooze 👌 Great service, lovely people and we are really delighted to have the regular dog walking service to help us out during a busy working week. We think he’s a better rounded dog as a result 🥰 …
Jolly goes to Alicia's House of Paws about once a week depending when my partner goes to the office. I love that she's able to play outdoors all day (although there is a summer House for cold days) meeting up with her doggy pals. Staff are always helpful and respond quickly on WhatsApp. We get photos, videos and a review of the day it's great to see what she's up to when I'm not around! Thanks Alicia and team!
Melissa looked after my wee boy Caspian during end stage heart failure. He needed multiple tablets and 2 injections daily and was not the easiest cat. Melissa managed with ease and Caspian really loved her visiting. Now she continues to look after my other kitties who equally enjoy her company and she is the first sitter I have found who I completely trust. I would highly recommend.
Fantastic doggy daycare. Cleo is a rescue dog that did not have a lot of confidence when first starting, but the staff have been brilliant with her and now she loves being there :)
In my experience, the owner, Jane, and staff at Cranstoun Kennel are knowledgeable and loving towards the dogs in their care. They handle special requests very well and are friendly and helpful to their customers. I have boarded my dogs there for both short and long trips, and I always feel that my dogs are in good, loving hands. The owners live on-site and keep a watchful eye on things. The facility is kept very clean and neat, and the kennel is always prepared for my dog so that the drop-off process is quick and smooth. I've recommended Cranstoun Kennel to many of my friends; they are open all year round with radiant heat to keep your dogs toasty warm in winter and soft Scottish breezes to cool them in summer.
Hector is happy to go off on his ‘holidays’ to Cranstoun, whilst we go on ours content in the knowledge he’s being well looked after.
These kennels have changed our lives. I thank my lucky stars that we found them. After too many years of not going on holiday. We are now travelling the world, knowing our dogs are happy and being well looked after here.
Our dog loves his holidays at the kennels. Lots of open space to play and dogs all seem happy when we drop him off.
Very experienced friendly owners and staff, made in easy for us to leave our furry family in their care. Really, clean well organised kennels, with super outside areas for exercise. We will definetely use again and highly recommend trying even if your wary of leaving your dogs in someone else's care. Ours trotted in tails wagging and trotted out tails wagging after their 4 day stay. We particularly appreciate being able to specify dietary needs and medications in detail. We also appreciated the staff being able to recognise our dogs personalities and accurately describe them to us. A sure sign of a great depth of knowledge.
I am so happy that we have found this kennel for Freddy. This was his 3rd time staying, and he was so happy and excited to be there when we arrived. Excellant caring and friendly staff.
Had my 4 cats stay for a number of weeks while we searched for a new home. They were looked after incredibly well.
Our Dog spends her holidays there. And is so well looked after. Highly recommended.
The owners go out of their way to ensure your pet is well looked after, and are more than happy for you to visit
Lovely owners, my dog was really looked after and wouldn't have any hesitation taking her back here 😊 …
Great kennels been taking my Ben and Bailey there for a few years now and we'll looked after,amazing staff also
We have used nivensknowe for many years and would totally recommend it The staff are excellent and the dogs very well looked after and secure
I've been using Nivensknowe for several years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Alan and all the team are fantastic. Very professional, friendly and willing to accomodate bookings at short notice if they possibly can. They've saved my bacon several times. Best of all, Marv's always very keen to go back in with a lovely welcome from the team.
Richie our miniature dachsund absolutely loves alan and the team , he's always super happy when he gets there and wants to stay when we come and collect
My dog Nala has been coming here for around 2 yrs due to her anxiety of being left alone at home from a few months old. Alan and the team are great with her and she seems to love the staff here to. Nala goes to daycare when we're working and whenever we're going on holiday, shes here for the week or two. I noticed a few negative reviews implying that the pets aren't getting fed as the owners have been handed the food back when picking up their pets. Alan supplies meals of wet, dry or raw depending on what your pet is on and this is included in the price. I cant recommend this place highly enough and I know Nala is well looked after.
After being rushed into hospital Alan & his team looked after my Bordeux " Boss " . I can't thank them enough to the point he made regular trips ether for dog day care & or walks as loved it that much. He would walk away from us never look back & jump into Alan's van , now that speaks volumes!!! Alan & his staff always went above and beyond like Boss was there own I will use no other kennel, full stop !! Thank you so much for making Boss's last months the best , same again this speaks volumes!! Ali
Figaro loves his stay at Nivensknowe, Alan and his team are very professional and care for your pet very well I would not go anywhere else.
Recently had our cat Burrito stay for 10 days at Nivensknowe while we were on holiday and couldn't recommend it more. They offer pick up and drop off and were happy to update with any questions we had whilst away. The price is also very reasonable. Thank you so much to Alan and the team at Nivensknowe for taking such good care of Burrito!
the council took my cat there due to family problems, he was only there a week and the last visit I saw him FINISHED, They only have a stove that doesn't even heat the hut completely, they don't put a pittance of sand in it so they can relieve themselves.I don't know what they will put in his food but my cat has died and supposedly his kidneys were failing, he stopped walking, he couldn't not even stand up, he vomited a strong yellow liquid as if from poisoning, may he rest in peace Robin 🕊️🤍, the service there is terrible, no one ever serves you and when they do so without interest, there are dogs crying non-stop and it is incredibly cold to the place where they have them. I HOPE I listened to the reviews and didn't leave my cat there. PLEASE DON'T TAKE YOUR CREATURES THERE.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 i hope this place closes very soon ,if your animal has died here please contact me!
Left my dog for 3 nights. He got dropped of clean, happy and healthy. Also packed his food with him. When he got picked up he was covered in mud/dirt, all wet and stinky. Had to bath him as soon as he got home. Since he been home he haven't eaten his food and he haven't been his usual self. On top of that he been sick twice (definitely not a dog food he been fed there ) it's actually concerning how they are "looking after" the animals.
Ruth at PetStay is an absolute legend. Every time I’ve needed to book our toller in she’s linked us up with a wonderful carer (same family every time luckily, our dog loves them). She also linked a family members dog up with a carer a week before our wedding when there were no other options which saved the day. Fab service and can’t praise enough 😊
Could not recommend Petstay or Ruth highly enough. Immediately felt at ease during our first meeting with Ruth and Ann & Les. It is very obvious they love dogs and Max could sense that too as was not bothered when we left him. Regularly updated with photos & videos of his adventures. Max had a ball. He can't wait for his next visit in a few weeks.
Avoid, avoid, avoid. Pet Stay said they could cover a weekend for me. Booked to meet a carer - I had to take a day annual leave because the carer’s availability was so limited. Pet Stay cancelled this at short notice. They then rebooked me with someone else. This was also then cancelled. Spent a month wasting time emailing back and forth in total. This seems like a really disorganised and unreliable company - I’d not trust them with my dog.
No pet sitter availability in EH5/6/7/8/9 Post codes.
Fantastic service, I will be using Petstay for my dogs whenever I’m out of town.
My dogs didn't even want to come home with me, highly recommend!
We picked Clyde up after leaving him with Silverwitch for a long weekend. Yet again he was looked after so well meaning we could relax and not worry whilst away. The staff are so lovely. We will definitely be back & highly recommend these kennels.
Our young golden retriever has stayed at Silverwitch a few times, for short and long stays. The staff have been very attentive to his needs as occasionally he’s needed medication administered and been on restricted exercise, all of his needs have been accommodated with no issues. He always goes in and comes out very happy. It’s lovely seeing photos of him having fun with his dog pals during his stays.
Our two Golden Retrievers are regular visitors to Silverwitch. They are very well looked after in a beautiful setting. The Silverwitch team are excellent.
Silverwitch is a five star location for anyone's family dog looking for a temporary home. A recent second stay at Silverwitch for our spaniel Ghillie was again very successful. The standard of the kennels are excellent and Laura's very caring team are there to keep order (as best they can when dealing with a couple of dozen visitors all barking at once).
We were very impressed by the care offered by Silverwitch for our 2 labs who had never been in kennels before and were very content and seemed to have a lovely time with lots of new friends! I would definitely use silverwitch again and would recommend
We couldn't be happier with the care our dog receives at Silverwitch Kennels - every time we pick him up, he's happy, healthy, and pleasantly exhausted from all the exercise. The staff is attentive and ensures each dog gets the attention and activity they need. It's a relief to know our dog is in good hands. Highly recommend!
Our Daisy is so well looked after when she is with the Silverwitch ladies. 5 star kennels indeed. We love seeing the pictures of Daisy at play when we are away. Rob & Sheila. and of course Daisy.
Silverwitch kennels is a well organised dog hotel where the guests are looked after with care and kindness. The doggy guests are given lots of walks and for our big girl this makes her very happy. I would have no hesitation in recommending Silverwitch to prospective customers.
Our dogs are very happy going to stay at Silverwitch Kennels. It’s great we have found this team who care about the dogs and look after them so well. Highly recommend ❤️
Eddie was really well looked after and enjoyed his stay. The care and attention given to the dogs is first rate. This was his first time and will definitely be back.
We have been taking Coco to Meadowhill since we adopted her which is eight years. She is really happy there and we do not have any complaints. She is due to go back in November . We would not put her anywhere else when we are away. Extremely pleased with the service provided. I have attached a couple of photos.
I have been taking my two cats to Meadowhill for the past three years and can honestly say it is the best cattery they have stayed at. The staff are friendly, welcoming, very cat-loving and happy to do whatever is requested to make your pet's stay as happy and stress-free as possible. The individual kennels are quite spacious,spotlessly clean and tidy and the situation of the kennels is ideal too - in a quiet rural setting surrounded by fields and trees. I wholeheartedly recommend.
Meadowhill staff are so kind and caring in looking after our cats and the modern facilities are always clean and peaceful. Our bonded pair of cats, Kola and Milo, share an enclosure and they are always in great condition when we pick them up, often after two weeks. Staff know the cats well and provide a very personal service. We have used Meadowhill three or four times a year for the past two years and can highly recommend them.
This was the first time I used a cattery for my 4 cats and to be expected they were unsure about their surroundings but the staff made them feel at ease as much as possible. I would recommend this cattery as their booths are big enough for two cats and they are well cared for. I hope to use this cattery again the future if I'm getting work carried out in the house or going on holiday. Thank you to Paul and all the staff for making my cats less stressful. Highly recommended.
The best cattery I’ve ever used. Beautifully clean, spacious, warm in winter, cool in summer, exercise and sleep areas available within enclosed and separate ‘rooms’. Staff are lovely and my girl settles very quickly when there and then when back home. I’m very happy with Meadowhill.
Duggee has just returned from his 3rd stay at Meadowhill (and longest) and although he’s an outdoor cat and probably doesn’t love going, and can be a fussy eater, he’s returned as happy and as plump as ever! It gives us peace of mind knowing he’s somewhere clean, professional and local to us. Highly recommend.
Would not place my cat, Lexi, anywhere else. The team take the time to get to know her preferences and I know she is well looked after when i am away. Lexi also behaves far better and is not so fussy an eater with Meadowhill than she is with me!
If your looking for a clean, reliable, caring, well maintained and well staffed stay for your beloved cat, Meadowhill is the place to use. Our furry family member can be timid, but always settles well and looks like he would be happy to stay longer when we collect him. The staff can give you a full detail of how he's been and what he's ate. You can truly tell that they enjoy looking after the pets in their care.
Meadowhill is in a class of its own. The care and attention given to my cat has been second to none. Paul, Wayne and Catherine are such caring animal lovers I know that there is no need to worry about my cat even though she is sixteen and a half and has a kidney issue. The facilities are more than comfortable in fact luxurious compared to most places. A truly wonderful find.
I have used Meadowhall for a number of years now. Their facilities are excellent and the cat pens are warm, comfortable and very clean. It’s clear that as well as providing a great service they really love the pets in their care. My cat is elderly, nearly 18, and very grumpy but is really well looked after.
