"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
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!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.
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!
Best kennels. Great facilities and lovely staff. My dog is a handful and 80lbs and this was all taken in stride.
We unfortunately no longer have a pet but only for financial reasons. A friend asked if we could recommend a kennels and we immediately thought of Animal Paradise who we used for 15 years or more. Our dog always got excited when we drove up the lane to the property because he enjoyed the care they gave him. It was our dogs second home and was always treated with love from start to finish. I can not speak highly enough of the lovely place and the lovely people at this home from home for our pets.
We’ve used Animal Paradise for our boy Vinnie for four years now. He is always delighted to see the people at kennels during drop off so we know he’s treated very well! Very happy with the service and would recommend to others. It is reassuring to know Vinnie is in good hands when we’re away.
Our dogs have come back from here what gem of a place both our dogs came home happy and bathed lovely people who owns it and more importantly the dogs are well looked after well worth the 5 stars 🙂 …
Great kennels. Our Border Terrier was very happy here. Couldn't wish for better care. Highly recommend.
Looked after our little dog while we was at a festival for the weekend . Lovely setting lovely staff .
I highly recommend Animal Paradise. I have had bad experiences with kennels before and am very hesitant, especially with our new, VERY nervous rescue puppy. He came back more relaxed and confident then he has ever been. The care was 10/10, the prices are amazingly competitive, the setting is so tranquil for them, and we are so pleased we have rebooked for later in the year. Thankyou for the care you took with our boys.
My dogs were very well cared for. I have one nervous dog and we got him home, you would have thought he had been on a week long spa break, he was extremely relaxed. Very helpful and friendly staff. Great facilities, the place is kept exceptionally clean. I’m not surprised there are so many 5 star reviews. We will definitely be back. Thank you.
Lovely people and the best care for my pet while I have been away twice. Couldn't recommend them enough. My cat loves it here and I am perfectly relaxed knowing that he is well looked after. He had fleas before he came here which was unknown and this was delt with swiftly and efficiently and I think the source has now been identified. Thank you so much from Lucy and pepper. P.s. pepper is now ok and is currently having a nap x
Great kennels and lovely staff, very relaxed leaving our puppies here whilst we watched Exeter chiefs lay the beat down on Bath!
The best dog sitters and dog walkers ever! Always making sure all dogs there are vaccinated so your pet will stay healthy too. Always thinking about how to keep the dogs busy with plays, and genuinely enjoying cuddles with them. I’d trust these guys with my life. They are so caring and professional. My dog always has so much fun there! Thanks so much Just Purrfect!
Duke always enjoys his walks , day care and boarding with Just Purrfect. He always comes home happy and tired! He loves Stevie , Chris and the rest of their team he gets excited when they collect him. Range of services on offer and affordable he doesn't go anywhere else. I highly recommend!
Such a caring and helpful business. Our dog is a rescue and can be a little nervous but he loves going to Just Purrfect. We started using them when we moved to the area and needed dog boarding while we moved. He now goes there for daycare and grooming. He is always very relaxed when we collect him and goes straight back into his usual routine. Every single member of staff that we have meet there have been incredibly friendly and reassuring. I’m so glad we found them!
The team at Just Purr-fect have been amazing with our 2½ year old rescue girl and take care to match dogs who will play well with each other and complement each others energy levels. She always comes back happy and clearly having had a great time. The team are also great at responding to any questions promptly.
The team are fantastic and you can tell they really care about the dogs. Our little boy has a brilliant time at daycare, the groups for dogs to mix are thought out, and it's a great way to get dogs comfortable and socialised. Would highly recommend
Just Purr-fect are on top when it comes to animal day care and boarding, they regularly look after our Dog and he always has a fantastic time! The staff are fun and friendly and always push to be the best they can be and nothing is ever too much to ask! I 100% say use these guys, Professional and approachable I will be using them for the foreseeable future!
An amazing service provided. Our cat was fed and played with twice a day, twice daily emails and photos. Can't praise them highly enough.
I would just like to say the the service received for Dexter, who is currently staying with me for a week, has been brilliant. Becky is very reliable, caring , respectful and professional of Dexter's wants and needs whilst she has been walking him. Thank you for your service, his owner is very relieved to know Dexter is in safe hands. Kind regards, Steph
Could not recommend this place enough, we had to come to exmouth for a funeral and at last minute they helped us out so much, can’t thank Emma and the team enough.
I cannot fault the care given to 'Freddie' my Border Terrier since spending time with 'Just Purr-fect he always had such a happy time. I highly recommend such an amazing caring team who go above and beyond.
An excellent day care and boarding provider!! Frank and Debbie at Amigo Pet services over a professional, knowledgable and friendly service where nothing has ever been too much trouble! From first meeting Frank and Debbie we instantly knew our dog would be looked after with care and love! The pictures they post show our dog having a brilliant time on her walks with her 4 legged friends and as soon as she comes home she certainly wants her bed. The pick up and drop of service they offer makes it completely hassle free and knowing she is able to go somewhere familiar if we have to board her is a real bonus. I would highly recommend Amigo pet services and will continue to send our dog for all her day care and any boarding needs. Thank you very much Frank and Debbie!
5 stars are not enough for this incredible team of people who will love and look after your dog as if they are the owners themselves. Have never been happier with a decision before regarding my dogs care. 10/10 xx
I have enjoyed a couple of years of worry free service from Frank and his team. Frank puts you and your dog at ease and gives you the confidence to trust somebody else with the care of something that is so precious to you. Frank has a wealth of experience and as a new owner I found his insight informative and very reassuring.
Frank and his team are so reliable and friendly. Trust him implicitly with our little pooch. He turns up reliably and looks after our dog very well. Great communication and a friendly smile. We would be unable to own a dog without franks help as a full time working house. It’s great to be able to have a holiday knowing that our dog is in a home from home well looked after.
I have used Amigo on and off for the last 7/8 years. I find Frank and the gang very easy to deal with & Maggie (the dog) loves her days out! Before the first time we used Amigo, Frank called up to discuss Maggie's requirements, behaviour etc. I found this very proffesional & personable. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommended.
The Amigo team have been wonderful in helping me with some lunchtime walks for Archer while I was at work. They were very professional, he clearly had a super time (the Instagram photos are worth looking at), he was out for 2-3 hours at a time and it was great for his socialisation. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone, definitely worth the money.
Not for me and my best friend. My dog wears a GPS tracker and I was able to see exactly what he was up to all day, where he was and whether he was moving. He was there for daycare 9.15-17.00, and apart from 90 minutes he spent the entire time in the van- about 6 hours!! on the hottest day of the year so far. He did go on 2 walks (40 minutes and 50 minutes) but other than that it was travelling in a van. It made me really glad I have an activity tracker on him because otherwise as an owner you would never know. I really liked Frank, but I think we had very different ideas about whether this was OK or not. I learnt a lot- and in future when organising daycare I would specifically ask how long I can expect my dog to be travelling each day.
We can’t recommend Frank and his Amigos enough! Our little dog thoroughly enjoys her visits for day care and gets plenty of exercise too. We know she couldn’t be in safer hands or or be looked after by kinder people.
Me and my dog Bongo have been using Amigo pets for a while now and they have never let us down. They are also extremely flexible and responsive and will always pick up extra if they can. Highly recommended!!
Been using for nearly a year now, Frank is a very calm influence on my dog. You can tell he really cares.
I cannot recommend Home for Hounds highly enough! I have been bringing my doggo, to their daycare for over a year now and she absolutely loves it. She used to be quite nervous around other dogs and new people, but the friendly staff have done an amazing job helping bring her out of her shell. She now struts into daycare wagging her tail, confident and ready to play. The team here goes above and beyond and they've shown incredible flexibility to accommodate my variable work schedule. It always brings a smile to my face to see the great pictures they post after walks and play sessions. Most importantly, I know my dog is safe and in good hands at Home for Hounds. Their experienced staff truly care about the dogs under their supervision. They make sure the environment supports healthy socialisation and exercise. I have 100% trust in their animal handling expertise. With outstanding service, compassionate care, and reasonable rates, Home for Hounds sets the gold standard for doggy daycares. My sassy pooch can’t wait to go back for more fun each week! Five enthusiastic stars and a big puppy paws up!
Louis absolutely loves his days at home for hounds. He jumps out of the car and runs through the door to meet all his doggy and human friends and we know he has a great day by the photos that the team take. We know that he is well loved and looked after as we often find him in the lap of someone having a cuddle when we come to pick him up. Knowing that he is so well looked after whilst we go to work puts our minds at ease. The team are incredibly kind, flexible and professional and we are so grateful for the help they provide in looking after Louis. We cannot recommend them enough. Thank you.
Five-star doggy daycare. My dog has been going regularly for the last three years and LOVES every moment. I'm pulled into Home for Hounds by my very happy and excited dog each time we go. I can wholeheartedly recommend the gang at Home for Hounds for your canine family member.
We wouldn’t want to send our Winston anywhere else! He absolutely loves going to Home for Hounds, always goes in with a waggy bum excited to see the amazing staff. He’s been going since he was around 5 months old, he’s now 2. It’s so lovely to see uploaded photos as to where he’s been on his walks and see him playing with his friends. We have the drop off service which is fab and so helpful when we’ve been working all day. We always find Winston snoozing happily in the kitchen, listening to his favourite radio shows! 5 star service, thanks so much guys! :)
The team at Homes for Hounds are lovely - genuine dog-lovers. Our dog pulls at the lead to get in there when we drop him off to see them and his fellow, furry, friends and is exhausted after a great day of walks, cuddles and fun when we pick him up at the end of the day.
Very disappointed with the couple of girls I passed today in Bellever Forest from Homes for Hounds. They had 10 or more dogs between them, all off lead, except 1, and were worrying a group of 4 ponies, chasing them around and barking at them. This is one firm I would not recommend or use for sure.
My doggy loves her days at Home for Hounds. She returns to me a happy, tired pup!
I want to thank home for hounds for everything they’ve done for Ozzy. It breaks my heart that we are moving away and Oz cannot go anymore. The difference we’ve seen in him since he’s been going is amazing, he is now great off his lead and much better around other dogs while on walks.. no more running off to jump on anyone he can see. Not only has home for hounds helped Ozzy but back in December I was due to give birth. Since having no family down in Devon to take care of Ozzy the girls couldn’t help enough. They opened up early for him and happily looked after him at short notice. I received pictures throughout the day which made me feel a lot more comfortable. I am truly saddened that Ozzy cannot go anymore but without a doubt I would recommend home for hounds to anyone who wants their babies (dogs) to be in safe hands.
My dog, Dougal, literally squeals with excitement when he arrives at Home for Hounds! I have absolute confidence in their ability to look after the dogs in their care and the dogs get lots of lovely exercise in a range of places. Dougal first went when he was only 14 weeks old and Kathy and her team were really great about adapting to his needs as a little puppy. Kathy has also been great at adapting to my slightly awkward working hours! I have nothing negative to say! Would recommend them wholeheartedly.
My cockapoo Molly has been going to Home for Hounds since she was 16 weeks old. She is my first dog and the advice Kathy and her team have given me has been invaluable. They go to a variety of places each day, beach, woods or the moor where they get an amazing run out with other lovely dogs. Molly comes back tired and content. Superb doggy day care. I can't recommend them highly enough.
So happy with our experience of using Sunny Pet Sitting! Claire looked after our indoor cats & rabbit while we were away & we received daily messages & pictures to let us know they were doing well. Normally our cats are a little stressed when we go away & it takes a while for them to settle back in to a routine once we return, but when Claire looked after them this didn't happen at all! They were very happy & seemed super chilled when we arrived home. We will definitely continue to use Sunny Pet Sitting when we go away & would recommend.
Claire looked after our tortoise, Guinea pigs, hamster and fish while we were on holiday. We couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided, including feeding them daily and cleaning out mid-week. We especially enjoyed the daily updates and photos, it gave us excellent peace of mind. Thanks again!
Claire has been walking our girl for 8 months and has always been extremely reliable. She manages our dog really well, and as a 3 year old husky who cannot come off her lead due to poor recall this is not always easy. Claire is so passionate about what she does and our dog absolutely loves her walks. We get fantastic updates at work and we love seeing her having fun. Claire is extremely professional and provides an exemplary service. We absolutely cannot recommend Claire enough!
Claire was fab looking after by bunnies for the week I was away on holiday. She kept them very clean and updated me regularly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use claire again. 🐰❤️ …
Highly recommend! Lizzie was great at communication and sending me photos of my four cats while I was away. She even administered medicine to one of my cats with no issues! Very reliable and trustworthy!
Thank you Lizzie. I was worried about leaving my Ragdolls because they need medication three times a day in their food…and they’re picky eaters 🤦🏻♀️ Lizzie was amazing! She was lovely with the boys, fed them easily, updated me with photos and texts and left the house clean and tidy to come home to. I’ll definitely use her again and again 😻😻
Claire and Lizzie from Sunny Pet Sitting were very professional from the outset but equally what comes across is they are both warm caring individual's. So we were very happy to use their services to pet sit our 5 month old JRT puppy for 4+ hours whilst we attended a family funeral. It made what was already a stressful time all that much easier knowing that our pup was in good hands whilst we paid our respects. Our puppy was well cared for and looked very contented in their company. (Although initially excited on first meeting them as puppy's tend to be!). Happy to recommend Sunny Pet Sitting services.
Claire has looked after our cats a fee times now whilst we have been away. She is great and we will continue to use Sunny Pet Sitting in the future.
Claire has been walking and looking after my King Charles for two months now and we both think she’s great! Looking forward to many more months of a super happy pup
Fantastic service and wonderful care. Claire was friendly and attentive to all my dogs needs, will definitely be using again next time I go away!
At short notice Kirstie was able to look after our two cats for one week. Dealing with Kirstie has been a pleasure. She is quick to respond to emails, sent daily updates / pictures of our cats while we were away and made an effort to get to know them. From my experience she is reliable and can trusted unlike my previous cat sitter. We will be definitely using her service again.
Kirstie walked our dog Hendrix for 2 years since he was a puppy. Starting off with house visits and moving on to walks when he was ready. She's always been reliable, on time, flexible, trustworthy and always brought him home tired. Perfect! We would definitely recommend her to anybody needing a dog walker!
We are so glad we have Kirstie to look after our cat Hamish while we are away, she takes great care of him and gives him lots of fuss. She is also great at looking after other things around the house while we're away like watering plants and putting bins out etc. We wouldn't want to be without her!
We have a cat called Sooty and live in Exeter and Kirstie has looked after Sooty while we've been away for overnight stays. Kirstie has all the qualities you'd want from a pet sitter, she is reliable, professional, trustworthy and it is clear that she is an animal lover and will care for your pet(s) as well as you would yourself. The service provided is great in terms of communication and convenience and it's so nice to get photos of your pet while you're out so you know they're happy. Kirstie will also help out with watering house plants, opening/closing curtains etc. So also offers peace of mind that your house does not look empty while you are away. Overall we would not look anywhere else for a pet sitter in Exeter. Fully recommend.
Kirstie is a wonderful person and a natural with animals. We have a sensitive greyhound called Dolly who has quite special needs - Kirstie is one of the few people we trust to look after Dolly and we feel relaxed and reassured when they are on walks or when we are away and leave Dolly with Kirstie. Dolly loves Kirstie and her family so much because she is treated so well and very much feels like she is part of their lovely family :-) I can't recommend Kirstie highly enough!
Kristie is amazing! Her prices are fair, she’s very flexible, and my cat has always received the care she needed. Defo recommend 👌 …
