"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.
There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo. From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away. This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of. Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for. I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift ! Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down. Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! Thank you, Teresa for everything.... Milo and I so appreciate you .....
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
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"!
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
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.
Laura came across the country to sit for us. She arrived a day early and from the moment my pets met her our Lokie was smitten. We have one shy cat Luna and she was out and about on the first night. Laura kept us updated and shared her Adventures as well. We do live in a small hideaway of a town so seeing that she was able to enjoy herself was nice. We returned to a clean home, laundry done also, and very content pets. Lokie was sad for a few days as he missed his friend. We would recommend Laura as a sitter to anyone and would have her back again. 5 plus stars. ⭐
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!
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!
Lucy has been absolutely brilliant with our 5 furbabies, we've been receiving regular pictures and updates about them which gave us a great peace of mind whilst we were away. We will definitely use her services again when we go away next! :)
Highly recommend Pet Pawfection too! Lucy has been caring for my dog since he was a few months old…(he is now 4y🤗). He loves her to bits and always enjoys his walks. Thank you, Pet Pawfection and Lucy, for being so fantastic, reliable and flexible❤️ Thanks for your professionalism and for taking such good care of our dog😘 …
Lucy is amazing with Apollo & Clemi. She cares so much and we have utter trust in Lucy. It’s so reassuring to know our dogs are safe whilst we are at work. Thank you for caring so much. 🐶🦮🐾 …
Lucy was absolutely fab with our two cats, nothing too much trouble! She kept in touch with pictures and videos which meant I could relax on my holiday without worrying about them! Can't recommend enough 😍 …
This is the first time we have used Pet Pawfection. It was clear to see from the start that Lucy is a natural with animals and so caring too. She has kept us updated with videos and photos of our pets every day while we have been away, and has bonded so well with our pets too. Lucy is so lovely and so friendly. We will not hesitate to recommend Lucy to our friends. We have already booked Lucy to look after our pets again, when we go on another trip. Would definitely recommend Lucy.
Lucy is the most wonderful dog walker for our two young pups. They pine every morning, hoping it's a Lucy walkies day. Think they love her more than us! We have a large variety of pets and I know any one of them would be in very good hands with her. 100% recommend.
Lucy is excellent with our dog and we can’t live without her. Her updates are reassuring and she is very reliable!
Lucy was fantastic with our two cats Dexter & Willow 🐈 she is patient and gave us her outstanding service. We received lots of photos & video. We went on our vacation knowing our fur family were safe and looked after. We definitely recommend Lucy. …
As another pet professional I can highly recommend Lucy! she always has every pets needs at the top of her list! She is fully insured. she has brilliant prices and is 100% trustworthy and provides amazing services! can not recommend enough!
Lucy is the best pet sitter, and we highly recommended her. We have used Lucy since 2018. She is not only a pet sitter but she looks after your house too. We love using Pet Pawfection, and if we could do a million reviews we would. Angie/Keith/Meow and Mia....
Just used Cozy Paws for the first time. We came back to two very happy cats that usually aren't very happy when we've been away. will definitely be using their services again in the future.
Cozy Paws have been walking our dog Cora for a little over 3 years now and I don't really know what we, or our hound, would do without them. Cora instantly took to Sam and Rachel and loves going out for her walks (after some encouragement to wake up and leave her bed). From our initial meeting, we've had complete trust in Sam and Rachel. They are wonderful people and genuinely care about all the animals they look after. I know our dog is always safe with them and absolutely recommended.
Both ladies are very helpful, and I really liked that before we started using the service Sam visited so we could see how our kitten reacted. We got him during lockdown, so he hadn't had much exposure to other people. He took to her straight away, of course, though, so she was kitten approved 😀. …
We have been using Cozy Paws 🐾 for 91/2 years and I can confirm that our pooch enjoys the walks he has fun and knows when Sam or Rachel are coming Sam and Rachel are both so approachable and professional, both are accommodating. They are kind I would recommend Coxy Paws , you won't be disappointed. …
Sam and Rachel are absolutely the best - they’re so accommodating and our dog, Jack, absolutely loves them (runs to them). He loves his long walks, romps in the fields with other dogs and the occasional swim in a nearby pond. We feel so much better about leaving him at home knowing he’s in for a fun afternoon with his friends!
We have two boisterous miniature dachshund who absolutely LOVE going out for their walks with Sam & Rachel. I am paranoid about letting them off the lead with other dogs around so they have so much fun with the wonderful ladies from Cozy Paws. I can’t praise them highly enough and I trust them completely with my boys.
Sam and Rachel are always reliable and even fit in last minute cat visits when needed. My two cats got extremely stressed in a cattery and I feel so much happier having them cared for in our own home. Highly recommend cosy paws they essential!
I have been using cozy paws for many years to walk my greyhounds. They looked after my older greyhound who was slow and anxious wonderfully - she was always so excited to see them, even though she only plodded round for 20 mins! They now walk my bouncier younger greyhound, who can be handful, so well - she loves her walks with them and I am happy she is safe and well cared for in their hands.
I can’t recommend Sam and Rachel highly enough. They’re friendly, flexible and have been nothing but wonderful with my dog Harry. They’re always on hand if I have any questions and respond to emails quickly. Fab service and very reasonable prices.
Would definately recommend this dog walking/pet sitting company. Working shifts, which sometimes change short notice Rachel and Sam are very helpful. My cat and dog love the visits from all the girls of cozy paws 😻😻😻 …
Jennie has been absolutely fantastic since day one. Super professional, accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. Our little dog has been with her since she was a puppy and every week our dog is so excited and happy to see Jennie - they have a great relationship! Couldn’t be more confident and happy about the care she gives to each and every animal. Our dog comes home happy and tiered after a day of fun every time.
Jennie has been absolutely amazing with my pug Louis since he was a little pup. Louis absolutely loves his daily walks with Jennie and the other dogs. Jennie is extremely flexible when needed due to my work commitments and short notice visits/ stays need to be booked. Louis loves when we go on holidays, as he gets to spend both day and night with Jennie and even more time in his favourite place! We are fortunate to have found Jennie and enjoy daily updates through texts and photos about what Louis has got up to with Jennie and the other dogs during the day!
Jennie has walked our cocker spaniel Buster for the last 2 years and is just fantastic. She’s always very flexible and goes out of her way to accommodate you. Buster is obsessed with her and is always so excited to go on his adventures with her. We love seeing the photos / videos she sends us of Buster running around with all his friends. I cannot recommend Jennie enough!
Highly reccomend Jennie and Completely Canine! Such a professional service and I'm 100% at ease when I drop my 16 week puppy off for day care that he is in the best hands possible with her! He absolutely loves going as he wags his tail as we pull up! It's so lovely that Jennie takes the time to update me whilst he's there with photos and videos of how he's doing. It's the highlight of my day! Jennie is obviously super passionate about her work with dogs and it shows! They all look so happy when I drop off and pick up. Thank you Jennie for being so amazing!
Jennie is absolutely amazing. Enzo has been going to Jennie since he was a 5 months old, and he loves it. The excitement when he arrives and reluctance to leave Jennie speaks volumes. He has made his little friends there. I could not recommend Jennie enough.. just awesome service, and her love and care for the dogs she looks after is visible on both her and the dogs. Thank you so much for doing what you do Jennie. If you haven't tried Daycare with Jennie your dog is missing out!
Jennie has been so amazing with my girl Tally ever since she was a puppy! Tally absolutely loves going Jennie’s for day care and always comes home happy and tired which is great!! And on the days she isn’t at day care she goes out for a long walk with Jennie which she equally loves! I love how trustworthy Jennie is and how she is always happy to help when she can. I would happily recommend her to all! I am so grateful to have found her and to have her close by! Tally and I thank you so much!
Months ago I adopted a 5 year-old Labrador from the RSPCA named Ada, and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate Jennie at Completely Canine's excellent care of her! Ada has such fun on her walks and even during her grooming sessions at Completely Canine :) Since I work in London, I really need someone I can depend on to take good care of Ada, and Jennie is truly that - whenever Ada is with Jennie, I know she's in excellent hands. Jennie always goes above and beyond to make sure that Ada is comfortable and happy. She even sends updates on Ada, complete with adorable photos, throughout the week so I know how Ada's doing on her walks, especially with respect to how she gets along with other dogs, whom Ada sometimes gets a bit too excited around! And when I had to make a last-minute overseas trip home due to a family emergency, Jennie was incredibly helpful, thoughtful, and flexible. I really cannot recommend Jennie at Completely Canine enough to anyone who wants the very best care for their beloved doggies! :) Completely Canine truly is a gem among doggy care services!
Jennie is fantastic. Her care and attention is just wonderful. We have been so happy and confident that our dog has been well looked after. She has also been incredibly helpful and accommodating. I recommend her totally both for day care and overnight boarding.
We've had puppy training, harness fitting, puppy socialising and obedience training. Sirius the pup goes to daycare regularly and absolutely loves it. Jennie goes over and above for her clients as her love of dogs is clearly her priority. We also get all four dogs' claws clipped. Two of them are extremely nervous having this done but Jennie is kind and patient and puts them at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending Completely Canine, in fact I already have on several occasions!
Jenny provides an outstanding dog care service. She provided day care for my dog Frank who suffers with separation anxiety and I can confidentially say that her support and care alleviated a lot of his issues and his social skills improved massively. I would receive updates throughout the day with fun photos regularly which was always reassuring. He would come home completed exhausted from having so much fun! There is no one else that I would want to have my dogs. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jenny to anyone who is looking for dog care. She is a totally dedicated dog lover!
Eileen is the best! A very warm and welcome lady and the dogs are so happy and healthy when I get home that I think she does a better job than me!! Thank you Eileen!!
She did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs while I was out of town. I have an older dog and a high energy youngster, and both of them came home healthy and happy.
Eileen is wonderful with our little dog, who couldn't be better cared for when he's with her, I totally recommend her
We have used Sarah regularly (several times a week) for over a year to walk our two terriers. She has been reliable and professional throughout this time. She understands our dogs different needs and reports back if anything is not right - one of our dogs is elderly, doesn’t like the heat and can have good and bad days. Sarah meets her needs and works with what each day brings!
Sarah has been taking my two dogs out for walks, generally at least 3 days per week, for about 18 months now, they love their walks with Sarah, on the odd occasion that I am home when she arrives I see how excited they are to see her! She is really conscientious, on wet days she makes sure to towel dry them when dropping them back home & always makes sure they have clean water after their walks. She is really flexible, often taking them out with very short notice! I highly recommend Sarah!!
Sarah is amazing! She is a real dog person, professional, knowledgeable, and adaptable. We would have anyone else looking after our dog, who she has looked after since he was a puppy. She has a background as a veterinary nurse, and cares for other animals on her farm. Our dog cannot wait to leave when she comes to collect him, and he loves staying with when we are away.
Sarah is amazing. She really does deliver a professional service. We have two ex-hunting rescue dogs who are lovely but both have their quirks - she looks after them brilliantly and they absolutely adore their time with her. She's walked them regularly for the past year and even brings some of her dogs over for "play dates" so that ours can have some doggie social fun in a safe setting at home. She's mega reliable, super professional and always gets back to you promptly. She has even helped us out when we've been stuck and has generally been a godsend. I am v picky with who looks after our two boys, but will happily recommend her 100%. If you are at all thinking of getting any help with looking after any of your pets then she is definitely the answer!
Have recently started sending our 20 month old pup to Sarah for extra socialisation and some additional training around livestock and we couldn't be happier. Sarah was recommended to us by a friend, has great general knowledge of dogs as well as being a trained vetinary nurse gives us absolute faith our dog is in good hands for the day. Seen a great improvement in her already and would not hesitate to recommend.
A true professional service with a real person committed to dog welfare and wellbeing. She fully understood the individual client needs and I was thoroughly confident in leaving GEORGE in her capable hands. I have a weekly walk and check up done on the days I'm at work and GEORGE has never been happier. I have tried other dog walkers and never have I felt so comfortable leaving my little boy with a non family member. I would whole heartedly recommend this service.
Received a very good service. My dogs were treated very well. They were happy to go off for their walk. A very professional service offered and I will certainly be using them again
Fantastic service! Sarah is really good with Monkey (Shar Pei) and he loves going there.
We are absolutely delighted with Sarah and her fantastic dog walking service. She is so professional and Rupert adores her.
Excellent professional, friendly service. 100% reliable and would use them every time!
