Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan & Nataki
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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 & Thomas
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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 & Susan
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.

Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
sandi
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Marc
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Joel and Esme
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Adrienne
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
joby
Amanda is truly our trusted sitter "find"! She comes back regularly, so much so that our kitties think she is their secondary owner! Always reliable, clean, responsible and most of all loves our cats as much as we do! Good communicator, self reliant - all in all a perfect "10"!
Alexis
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Laney
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!
Claire
If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.
Will
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.

This is not a good platform for sitters as a large chunk <20% goes to them for sitting behind a desk. Beware of suddenly getting unfair dismissal for not completing enough jobs.
Easy to use site with convenient app for messaging. I had a sitter from their site mind my dog overnight and there were no issues at all. Recommend for anyone looking for 1:1 care for their fury friends.
Mad Paws was great! The sitter I had, Tiffany, was very capable and loving for my 8 week old puppy. I’d definitely recommend Mad Paws!
Very impressed with the kind and attentive care provided to the pets in daycare; and the way that the pets are welcomed in, stimulated and treated as family! Well done guys!
I used pet sitting in Devonport and Chantelle was lovely. Very kind and welcoming, with a genuine love of all animals
Jess was great with our cats. I hope she’s available next time. Highly recommended.
Didn't use this sitter. He had a bad back and would be totally unsuitable for minding and walking my dog.

Little Winston has been going to Kip for almost four years now. He is always excited to be dropped off and play with his friends (both human and doggy). It's definitely his favourite time of the week. The team do an amazing job at looking after Winston and plan lots of activities to keep him occupied throughput the day. I would highly recommend.
Ivan has been attending Kip Hobart for over a year now, and he's always happy to hop in the car every Friday morning, knowing where he's going! The staff always give him a wonderful welcome, and I love getting their updates throughout the day on what he's up to. Ivan has been going to Kip since he was six months old, and it's been great for making sure he's well socialised and plays well with other dogs. I'm so glad we have Kip as an option for him!
We take our Labrador Retriever, Juniper, to Kip Hobart once a week for a full day stay. She LOVES going there, from the moment we pull up to the kerb, she is chomping at the bit to meet up with old friends and make new ones. She is so happy and exhausted by the end of the day. The daily photo and/or video updates of what she has been up are the highlights of our day. The staff are so friendly, they remember every dog’s name and are happy to provide advice if you are ever wondering about changes in your puppy’s behaviour.
Always a positive experience dropping miss piper off and picking her up. She has been going for a bit over 12 months now, since we started puppy school. Her confidence has grown and grown being around other dogs, and even though she’s a complete diva all of the staff show her so much care and love. It has also been great to be able to ask advice and be given strategies and encouragement as piper is my first puppy.
Monty has been going to both the Hobart and Kingston Kip Centres for almost twelve months. He absolutely loves going to Kip and virtually pulls us through the door each morning, he is so excited to be there. Pick ups and drop offs are really quick and all the staff are really lovely and caring with him. Monty adores them and all of his doggy friends. We receive regular activity feeds each day so we can see what fun he has been having and when we pick him up at night he is very tired, which is great! He’s also had some issue with skin allergies so the Kip staff have been really accommodating in helping us manage that. We’re really grateful to the Kip team and highly recommend both the Hobart and Kingston Kip doggy daycare centres. Thanks Kip! From Julie and Monty
Treakle (a Brussels Griffon), now 11 years old, has been going to Kip (and previous incarnation, Club K9) since he was just weeks old - and the size of a Coke can, according to then Club K9 team member Scott. He has always loved going there and it has been wonderful for him - initially in socialising him and now as his favourite days of the week. He gets so excited when we tell him he is “off to see the doggies”. He has a great time there, with both his doggie and human mates. The booking system is very convenient and flexible. Only suggestion is it would be great if overnight stays were brought back as it was such a good option for when we needed to be away from home.
My crazy little beagle puppy has been coming to kip since she was 5 months old. As a high energy puppy she can be a bit of a handful, but all of the Kip staff are wonderful and patient with her. She's always so excited when we arrive, and completely exhausted from all of the play at the end of the day! We love getting the updates during the day with photos and videos of her having fun with the other dogs. The staff are all very friendly, the location is great, and the building looks very clean and secure. Highly recommended!
Sparky and Lola-Mae would not be without their Friday’s at KIP. Sparks has been going since puppyhood and is now a very frosty Boston and Lolly has been attending since we adopted her in 2015. They know when it is Friday and are waiting for their car harness with Sparky shaking with excitement, Lolly will start whining at high pitch if not taken up the steps and into the play area fast enough. I have no idea what they do there but Sparks and Lolly love it 🥰. They are also well tuckered out on Friday night, we don’t hear a peep out of then until Sunday 😂. Worth every penny.
Boston loves his days at Kip. The staff are amazing and he always comes home nice and tired out. Thank you to everyone for looking after him and giving him lots of fun times.
Ruby has been going to KIP since she was a few months old. She always jumps in the door so excited for daycare. Ruby always comes home happy and tired after a big day of playing with her puppy friends. We love the daily updates from staff. The staff are always friendly and polite. Would definitely recommend KIP Hobart.

Chip loves staying with Johannes and company. The level of care provided to the dogs with Pet Central is above and beyond and Chip thrives in the homely environment and being able to socialise with people and dogs during his stay. Highly recommend :)
I cant explain how Diego loves the days with them. Johanes and the whole team are completely amazing and I can tell once they come to my place and how happy Diego became so happy immediately. Or even when we are at the dog park and coincidentally we meet them. His reaction says everything. It's so good to see. I found them when I was about to have a baby and they made my life so much easier, better, relaxed for this challenge moment. The most important moment of our life I had those fellas to take care of our love ❤️ Thank you! Im so glad to have you guys!
Our Labrador has been loving hanging out with the lovely Johannes and his dog buddies for over two years. Johannes clearly dotes on the pets he cares for and our dog clearly loves and feels right at home with the team at Pet Central Hobart, we would absolutely recommended them.
Johannes is so friendly and it’s very obvious that he loves dogs! My Great Dane Biggie can be a bit timid to start with and Johannes was so patient with him and let Biggie come to him. He went on a big day of meeting lots of new dog friends and was soooo tired when he got home. I would highly recommend Pet Central!! Thanks for taking great care of Biggie. :)
If you want your pet to be 100% safe, happy and well, leave them with Johannes. Biscuit was treated like family. Thanks guys!!
For all the fur baby parents: I have been doing dog walk and daycare with Jo for more than 1 year. He is a reliable person and really cares about your babies. He offers anything he could and tailored you with your request. That’s fantastic! I’m working 6 days per week, I’m so worried about my doggie’s physical condition and feelings if he alone at home. Luckily, Jo takes care for DuDu, he is super happy everyday and waiting at the door to be picked up even while I’m at home. Get so jealous!
Best dog walker and pet sitter in Hobart! Our dog just loves being with him. Johannes treats every dog like his own. Absolutely recommend his services!
Excellent service! The dog walker company is reliable, professional, and truly cares about the well-being of my furry friend. They always arrive on time, provide detailed updates, and go the extra mile to ensure my dog is happy and exercised. Highly recommend
We were just going to try out Pet Central one day a week, but Johannes was so lovely to deal with, came and met Harley and they instantly hit it off. He updated us during the day, Harley came home so happy and exhausted we have increased to twice per week. If it was up to Harley she would probably go everyday. Couldn't recommend Pet Central more.
When your dog faints with joy and wants to ride shotgun beside Johannes, you know that you've made the right decision with Pet Central Hobart. Absolutely recommend Johannes and his team to take your floofs out on adventures.

Kimberly, Steve and Elijah have looked after our whippets on numerous occasions and we cannot praise their service and care enough. One of our whippets had a bad start in life and is quite nervous of strangers, they have been so sensitive and helped her get over her fears - giving us the confidence to leave them without worrying. Kimberly’s pet services is a home stay environment, not a concrete floored kennel and Kimberly and her family care about the well being of her furry guests. Our whippets are calm and well loved when we pick them up. We cannot thank Kimberly enough.
We are traveling to Tas from Melbourne with our dog and wanted to visit the MONA museum. We left our dog with Kimberly’s per services for the day while we went. They were very easy to contact and organise with. Location was very close to our accommodation in Hobart so easy to get to and the price was very reasonable for a Sunday. We are happy with the service. Our only criticism would be that we did not receive any pictures or updates during the day to ensure we was doing okay. Thanks
We were visiting Hobart and needed Reggi sat overnight. Our caravan park suggested Kimberley's Pet Services from their experience, and we were very happy with Eli's friendly and welcoming manner with us and Reggi.
Very impressed by the slick operation and routine when we had our meet and greet - Kimberly evidently knows her stuff and has the dogs' (and people's) safety and wellbeing at the centre of how things are done. We were also impressed by one of Kimberly's dog carers who continued to speak with us and interact with our dog as Kimberly went to finalise a meeting with another family. This excellent service was continued on to the care of our fur baby for a week.
I've been using Kimberly's for months now on a regular basis (day care a few times a week for my dog while I'm at work) and I've never had any problems! Everyone is always professional and friendly and my dog loves going there. A nice big yard for him to play in, and one or two other dogs for him to play with. Happy dog, happy owner!
Twice now I have had to call Kimberly in an emergency because my Mum has been taken to emergency and Scooter (Mum's beloved doc) doesn't get on with our dog. Last night was the second time and Scooter was picked up within the hour, no fuss and it made me feel very relieved to see how happily she got into the van with Elijah (Kimberly's son). I cannot recommend this service highly enough - if there's an emergency and you need help they are there - and Scooter is a nervous Standard Poodle who settled without an issue and I suspect loved every minute of her 'holiday'. She's a dog that doesn't like change or settle well and this is the first time she's been happy anywhere that isn't with family. When you are already stressed it is a relief to not have to worry about your pets.
I placed my boys with Kimberly's for 10 days over Christmas. One of my boys was on a special diet which they were happy to comply with. On pickup both of them were happy and healthy and looking like they'd had a good time. The photos on FB helped to allay "mums" fears and Santa Claus had visited and they enjoyed a special doggy Christmas Cake!😊
I employed Kimberly's pet service to care for my little dog whilst I went on holidays. As a senior lady with my little dog my only day to day companion, I was extremely nervous about leaving my little girl.I have to say I was so relieved to be sent photos of my best friend being cared for with nothing but the best of care. I received photos showing her romping around the garden with other dogs playing, sleeping in Kim's bed,and enjoying her treats. When I picked Carnie up it was pretty obvious that she had had the time of her life, in fact she would have been happy to stay with Kim forever.I found this service fantastic and now feel I can safely have a holiday without worrying . I will definitely use Kim's service again and thoroughly recommend it to everyone in need of quality pet care.
I wish to share my thoughts on the outstanding and caring service provided by " Kimberly's Pet Taxi and Services " located here in Hobart Tasmania. Kimberly and her son Elijah run such a wonderful , caring and selfless service to provide outstanding care for animals in Southern Tasmania . Nothing is too difficult for them and they are ALWAYS there to help ... with such services as : transporting pets to vet appointments { whatever the time ! } , picking up pets from the Airport ( or transporting them to ) , caring for pets in their ( or their employed carer's ) homes whilst fur baby parents go away on holiday - a great alternative to your pet going into a kennel , doggy day care ( so special to me with my own dog Trigger !!! ) , pet feeding , pet walking or house minding and caring for pets whilst you are away . Kimberly's offers the " full service " at great rates and can ensure you peace of mind. Kimberly is such a dedicated animal lover who gives her whole care to caring for animals and also dedicates her time and finance to raising money for those animals in need .... a special person for sure. From a personal perspective .... I trust Kimberly ( and Elijah ) wholeheartedly and they are such important people in my and my darling dog Trigger's life . I moved here to Tassie 2 years ago from QLD , completely alone with my dog. He is my life and knowing he is well cared for and happy during the day whilst I am at work is so important . I have to work to support us and don't want my baby alone at home - therefore Trigger attends Doggy Daycare at Kimberly's house each day whilst I am at work. This gives me peace of mind and I know that Trigger is happy and safe , being cared for and also the added benefit of socialising with other dogs. I am so thankful I heard about Kimberly's ..... she has been a God send. My Trigger has now been attending daycare with her for 2 years :) Fellow fur bubby parents will understand I am sure .. the complete love we hold for our pets as members of our family and we want nothing but love , security and happiness for them xxx I wholeheartedly can recommend " Kimberly's " if you need any sort of care or transport for your pets !!! It is rare to find such dedicated people for their cause ... but here you will xxx Shari :)
Absolutely great business. They were very easy to deal with when collecting my dog from Devonport and provided great service in transporting and delivering him to my home. They even sent me an update with photos of him arriving to meet my family, which was much appreciated and simply a great touch and great service. Thank you so much for taking care of my mate and looking after him Kimberleys Pet Services.

Earlier this year when I went on a holiday interstate I used 'The Fairy Dogmother' to look after my pup Edmund for a few days. I couldn't be happier with my experience. Eboni shared frequent updates with us about Edmund and how happy he was there. Having the dogs in her home and only allowing one to two dogs at a time is perfect, especially with an anxious dog who doesn't do well in a kennel type of environment. 🐾
Serg loves his day care and boarding days with his favourite Eboni . She takes him for his walks , plenty cuddles and car drives . She also helps coordinate day care dates with his besties . We can leave Serg with Eboni and don’t have to worry about him as we regularly get plenty updates . Highly recommend .
One of the most affordable and best in town. Jasper loves his weekly daycare with Eboni!
The best dog sitter on Hobart’s eastern shore! So glad we found Eboni to take care of our furbaby! Her one on one service is beyond value for money. Highly recommend 👍🏼 …
Great personal care of my dog. Fun environment and plenty of stimulation. Tried a few dog sitters and the fairy dog mother is definitely the best in the area!
Eboni was fabulous with our little French bulldog. He will definitely stay again! Thanks again Eboni x
