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.
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!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
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.
Catherine was wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
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!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
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.
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
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!
This is the first time our elderly cat has stayed in a Cattery. Helen was excellent very good communication. The Cattery was clean in a lovely (remote) location and Helen was very welcoming. Very happy with HMC Petcare and would certainly use them again. Good value for money too.
I always send my cat to HMC pet care when I am away. They are absolutely lovely and the facilities for each cat are wonderful. They treat my Mr Smokey as if he is one of his own and he always comes back to us calm and happy. It’s a real weight off our mind to put him somewhere he is happy and cared for. The team are flexible if we need to extend and very communicative. Can’t rate them highly enough.
Wonderful cattery! I was very nervous about finding the right place for my shy cat during her first few stays in a cattery. Helen is absolutely wonderful and really took the time to make my little fur baby feel comfortable and confident! Helen sends regular updates and it's been a huge relief to see how well she settled in, I know she is in good hands and well looked after when staying here!
We have just collected Lucky and Toby after a nine night stay at the cattery, they have come back happy and well cared for, both our cats are very anxious and the owner knew this but with the excellent care they received they soon felt like they were at home. This cattery and kennels was recommended to us by a family friend and we are so glad we picked HMC petcare and we will be using these for any future holidays we have. Thank you taking such good care of our fur babies.
Smudge has been to HMC twice now and each time we have felt reassured she is in good hands.....cannot thank HMC enough. Thank you so much. Highly recommended and extremely clean perfect surroundings for Smudge.
Brilliant local cattery. Been using hmc pet care for a few years now, and they are fantastic. Oscar my cat is always happy to go and is stress free when he comes home. Hmc pet care is also a kennels as well so would image them to be the same with doggies 🐕 …
Can't thank Helen enough for all of her help and care this week when I accidentally let my cat out of of her basket outside HMC cattery. She went way above and beyond to help us which meant that after a 3 days stake out, the cat finally came to us and we were able to take her home safely. Ruth Browning
We took our two dogs for a visit today to see how they would settle as a taster day before our holidays . They were very happy with Helen and the other dogs. Helen sent us a video of the dogs playing in the garden which was great reassurance. We were very impressed, Helen is great, and the home from home dog boarding experience was totally different to any kennels we've every experienced. We would highly recommend HMC Pet Care and look forward to leaving the dogs again when we go on our holidays. Thank you Helen.
We were very anxious about leaving our little cat Mouse as we've only had her 4 months but she was so chilled when we collected her,we took her home and she settled straight back in.She ate well once she'd settled in cattery, she had a lovely cabin,everywhere was clean,Mouse had all her own toys,blankets and beds.Highly recommend,Mouse will definitely be staying again
I have used HMC twice now & wouldn’t take my cats anywhere else. Even after a month away both of my girls came home settled. One is quite old & set in her ways (& a little nasty) but HMC take it in their stride. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Not entirely sure why the person below says to 'avoid this company' without saying why!!!!! Carrie is nothing short of FABULOUS. She has cared for our dog on a daily basis, picking up and dropping off on time always with a smile. Our dog is happy, content, well cared for and Carrie clearly adores all the dogs. I would wholeheartedly recommend every time!
Bray loves his time at DayCare. He's such a happy boy with his friends.
Amazing day care facility for dogs. Communication is really good, care of the dogs is spot on and the facility itself is well thought out and stimulating for the dogs. My dog came back every week freshly cleaned and completely exhausted- I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
OMG what can I say! I absolutely LOVE this place! Carrie is so amazing with the dogs and I can see that they have an absolutely awesome time when they're there. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, reliable and cares a lot about dogs, then look no further! Your dog will have the absolute best time here, so much so that they may not want to come back home haha :) Far exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend to everyone
My dog loves going to see Carrie, she truly cares about the dogs and clearly enjoys having them around. My dog loves it there, playing with all her friends and always comes back content and ready for a well earned rest!
We have 1 dalmatian who i wanted to socialise with other dogs and have someone i trust 100% to look after her. We came and met Carrie and Rolo and we knew this was perfect. Large safe and secure areas to run around. Converted stables to chill.outnin in the summer.or.with heatlamps and cosy blankets in the winter. This is ideal for me when I'm.working and then fact that Carrie.collects her and drops.off is perfect for us. The excitement Rolo shows on the day that doorbell rings is so funny shes so excited to go. I would have my precious girl.anywhere else.
I personally would avoid this company and find another dog walker if you can. Our dog is a rescue who was attacked by another dog in the past and therefore can be very protective and therefore funny with other dogs. Country Hounds walked her for nearly 2 years, however one recent Friday afternoon decided they could no longer walk her as she only gets on with certain other dogs and therefore couldn’t schedule her in anymore. This wouldn’t be a problem, however as a business the way they dealt with this was appalling. 1. After 2yrs of loyal custom and never being late on a payment, they didn’t even have common decency to call and discuss this on the phone. It was done via WhatsApp. Completely out the blue. 2. They never gave us the chance to find someone else and left us totally in the lurch. There was not even talk about offering to give us a week or so to find someone else. It was just a ‘see you later thanks for your business’ text. They told us at 4pm on a Friday. I find it hard to believe they hadn’t been thinking about it for some time. A ‘business’ should not be run like this. I would avoid this company at all costs. Their customer service is terrible and loyalty is clearly not a 2-way street. We’ve used various dog walkers for 7yrs+ and have never had a problem with any. Country Hounds are the worst we’ve used. Be warned, you will be dropped when it doesn’t suit them anymore, they definitely don’t care about their customers. Avoid it you can!
Fantastic Business
Have used Wrexham Pet care services for several years. I can not recommend them more highly, they go beyond expectations. Reliable, trustworthy and my dogs adore them. I could not work my erratic hours without their support. 5 *****'s
Totally trustworthy, knowledgeable and reliable pet sitters. Highly highly highly recommend. Dotty and Wynnie .
The number of people I trust with my boys can be counted on one hand, Linz & Sven are now two of these! One of mine is pain-reactive, and an 80kg grumpy dog is not for the faint of heart! Empathy, patience and a strong understanding of canine behaviour were of paramount importance to me, and Linz has all 3 in abundance. Thank you 🙏 …
Absolutely thrilled to have linz and sven helping us with our fur babies. Highly recommend them and look forward to seeing them in 2025. xx
Sven and Lyndsey did a fantastic job of looking after my elderly cat, Rueben. When we got home I could tell straight away that he had been well cared for, he was very happy and relaxed. Nothing was too much trouble for them, giving my cat his medications, giving him lots of fuss and letting him play outdoors for a bit as well as watering our garden every day! Communication was brilliant, highly recommend!
Amazing service-and genuine care. Lindsay and Sven made us feel so comfortable going away. It’s not easy to leave them-but having met with several services, they bowled us over. When they look after them, I think our cats get more love when they look after us than us!!! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.
Lindsay and Sven really love animals of all descriptions. They have looked after my Shih Tzu on a number of occasions and have even taken him away with the for a weekend. They have taught him how to negotiate steps which was always a problem for me. I have no hesitation in recommending their services especially when they can look after other small animals at the same time (carrying sugar gliders in a waist pouch). How good is that!
Sven and Lindsay have just finished their second stint of looking after our dogs at our house. They are outstanding. The kindness and thoughtfulness is always greatly appreciated. The peace of mind knowing your pets are safe and happy is priceless.
I feel so lucky that we have found such a good service locally to us. Lindsay and Sven did a wonderful job of caring for our axolotls whilst we went away. It gave me such peace of mind to know that they were all in safe hands with genuinely caring people. We will definitely be using again and highly recommend them! Thank you both!
Lindsay and Sven are the kindest caring people.bailey and dumpling love going out with them for walks and when they pet sit we know all of them including tinkerbell cat are looked after so well...they look to see were they have gone when we come home and they are exhausted so we know that's a good sign ♥️ would highly recommend them to anyone thank you so much for caring so well for our animals 🥰
Amy from All Paws, called in last weekend to give our family dogs, a cuddle and to play ball with them, while we were away for the afternoon. Both dogs are very special to us and finding someone who we felt able to trust and look after them is very important to us. After meeting Amy and her meeting the dogs, we felt they would be in good hands with her. I would highly recommend All Paws, I was able go away for the afternoon and not worry about our 2 special family members.
Had a lovely day out knowing that our German shepherd had someone to let her out and play with her, have more days out planned . Thank you so much .
Laurel grange is a fantastic kennel, run by fantastic people. My dog is actively excited to be there when we arrive and can't wait to go see the staff and play. Talking to Emily, you can tell that she really cares and looks after your pets while they're there. Facilities are excellent, location is beautiful. It's a steal for the quality of petrol care you get here.
Emily and the team are amazing! They took such great care of Domino and Darwin. We’ve only left them at a kennels once before and we were a bit nervous of trying a different kennels but I’m so glad we did!! Emily made us feel so as ease when we dropped them off and we left knowing that our dogs were in safe hands. We got an update on them whilst we were away and on collection our dogs were so happy, clean and fresh! Thank you so much from two rather worn out pups! 🐾
Emily and her team are incredibly welcoming and professional, and it's clear that they genuinely care for the dogs in their care. My whole family trusts Laurel Grange for our pets, and we feel secure knowing they are in such good hands. When Bella and Pumpkin arrive, they can’t help but bound in with excitement! They truly enjoy their time there! Thank you Emily
Amazing kennels which are newly built and Emily and her team do an amazing job looking after my Whippet when he stays there. They keep us up to date with videos and texts which gives me peace of mind that he is enjoying himself. There are really large paddocks with high fencing around which means the dogs can run and play and they are let off in there several times a day. I would not put my dog anywhere else when I go away. I've just picked him up from a 2 week stay and he was so relaxed, pleased to see us but am sure if he could, he would be booking himself back in there for another holiday pretty soon! I always get Emily to give him a pamper groom for when we pick him up and he smells amazing, well worth it. Thanks Emily and Team!!
Absolutely fantastic kennels, Emily and her team go above and beyond to make your dog feel at home , and give peace of mind when we leave them. Highly recommend
Emily and the team are fantastic and provide great care for my Weimaraner who is very anxious about being away from home. We are very glad to have found this kennels and can’t recommend them highly enough!
Absolutely brilliant place. First time Freddie had been in a kennels, and he didn't want to leave after 6 days. Brilliant people working there and the dogs are so well looked after with loads of exercise. 100% recommend.
Emily went above and beyond with our old boy Monty. Thank you for all you did for him, to make him have a stress free stay. And settle our concerns of leaving. We will 100% recommend you.
Our boys 2 spaniels went into kennels for the first time. They were so welcoming and informative as to how Billy and Stanley would be cared for. We had updates by phone and videos of them playing. We came by way of a friends recommendation . How glad we did. Any time in the future this will be our only choice for us. Thoroughly recommend first class clean and true dog lovers
Excellent service and care of our Cairn terrier (Ted) whilst we were on 10 day holiday. Purpose built modern and secure facility with large outdoor paddock. Ted was very happy and will be staying again soon!
#Catsitter Karen is fab. My cat is anxious and HATES me going away--which makes me anxious. Karen texted letting me know Lala was fine and eating, including sending pics, so I could relax. Thank you. Worth every penny!
I always leave this barber feeling great and happy so definitely recommend this barber.
Excellent transport and assistance provided by Michael for my first ever dog! He drove from Sheffield to Canterbury, stopping off at two service stations so my dog could exercise and make some mess! The car used was very smart and comfortable.
I have had the most amazing trip to pick my puppy stray up from Zante and drive all the way back to Yorkshire. My driver/courier, Norman was fantastic. The whole process went smoothly, safely and was a trip of a lifetime. They organised every last detail to ensure the dog and myself were comfortable and well looked after. Highly recommend this fantastic company. Expensive but SO well worth it. Thank you.
I travelled with my dog from Sweden to Wales. They were very professional and organised and even remembered our names when we would call. No issues with booking etc. Were given plenty of information and contacted by the driver days before which was reassuring. He arrived in a branded van and clothes which reassured me (I am a young woman) and was very professional throughout. The van was clean and well equipped for transporting my dog and we took regular breaks around every 4 hours. Well worth the money and would definitely use c four paws again. Thanks/Diolch!
We had Milo collect from London on Sunday with two cages and a carry cage and lots of toys. Milo was perfectly happy and items were in good order. Collected on time and delivered on time. Excellent service and driver was very nice. Highly recommended for animal transport. Will definitely use again if the need arises. Good job thank you
Calagran Four Paws and my driver Will were absolutely amazing at handling our cross country transport for a long distance move. Having a rather large Staffy x Old Tyme, who had sadly had to be exempted due to her size, I was even terrified to take her on the road in anything other than proper transport. And with it being such a long way I wanted a safe long distance option also for all round safety and comfort. Our needs were catered for with the upmost care and Will was absolutely amazing with my nervousness and with my lovely girls nervy nature. I couldn't have been happier and I plan to travel with them again. I can highly recommend them.
I highly recommend this company. I just endured an incredibly stressful and long importation process into Europe and finally into the UK with my 3 med/large breed dogs. CFourPaws went above and beyond to help me logistically with things they really didn't have to and was outside of their services. Provided much needed emotional support and were empathetic to my unforeseen financial costs. Really without people like Keith and Greig, I may have crumbled under the stress of it all. BIg animal lovers, BIG hearts and can't fault them. Thanks CFourPaws x
I have been bringing my dogs here for a few years now. They are always happy to come back and I love that the kennels share photos with you of your pets. The drop-off was very useful
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. In a medical emergency you were the first kennels we found after literally 100's of phone calls with spare capacity to take Casper while his mum had an emergency operation to remove a brain tumour. The 10x photo's you sent us showing him happy & thoroughly enjoying a run in the secure field were a huge relief to his dad & a massive boost to his mum's immediate recovery.
We recently used C Four Paws to transport our dog Adi from Glasgow to Heathrow for her trip home to Canada. David was a very kind and professional driver and got us to the Kennel at Heathrow on time in spite of some unavoidable traffic delays along the way. We’re back home with Adeline safe and sound and are very grateful for having used the services of your company and David for the first leg of our trip.
An absolute lifesaver when it came to transporting me and my cats from Dublin to Somerset. There was fantastic communication the entire time during the booking process and our driver Clive was incredible! They made what was a very stressful move for me and my cats, a very easy time and I cannot thank Clive and the whole team enough.
Highly recommend Layla, she's a lovely lady and very good with that dogs, looked after our two cockerpoos, cat and our house whilst we were away for 10 days, will definitely have her again x
Brilliant service. Layla did a wonderful job looking after our dog and guinea pigs while we were away. We were able to really enjoy our holiday knowing our pets and house were in safe hands. Highly recommended.
Very professional and polite service, my sogs were very well cared for and my house was left spotless would use again
