Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
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.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Kathryn was a wonderful sitter for Princessa! She was flexible and communicative and took great care of my cat and home.
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.
Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!
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.
Ann Marie was an excellent house sitter who went above and beyond. She flew in a day early and stayed at a local hotel so we she could meet my cat and get the keys before my early flight the next morning. When I returned, she and Tryke were best friends and the house was immaculate. She even washed the sheets and towels, and remade the bed. I strongly recommend Ann Marie for any future sits!
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!
Having just left our two dogs with Rachael (Bed n Biscuits) for the first time, we can’t recommend her highly enough. We were quite anxious to leave Stan (our 3 year old, very sensitive Lab) and Patch (our 14 year old Jack Russell) but Rachael did everything to put us and them at ease. She took the time to go on walks beforehand to get to know them and during our time away, kept us updated with honest reviews and photos of how they were getting on. Both dogs came home happy - what more can you ask!
Having the dogs stay with Rachael is such a treat for them and us. They are totally safe and have fun walks. They especially like sleepovers! Thank you.
Alex looked after Flora for 15 days, which is the longest that we have left her. I was uncertain as to whether I could go away and leave her for such a long time, but from the moment that we met Alex and Ollie I had complete peace of mind. Flora has had a fabulous holiday, enjoying the walks with Ollie and friends, especially the water 😂. I’m sure that Flora will miss them all. Alex has great affinity with animals and genuinely loves and cares for them whilst they are in her care as though they are her own. We all looked forward to the photos and videos which were sent daily. I’m not sure that words can really express how grateful we are to have found Eastfield Dog Boarding.
Alex looked after Bill for me while we were away from a few days and he couldn’t have been happier. It was so great that he got to enjoy lots of long walks with Ollie, as well as plenty of time playing ball in their safe and enclosed paddock, which he loves. I felt really confident throughout his stay that he was being very well looked after. Even when he had a flare up of his skin condition, Alex went above and beyond to get in touch with me and help organise and then pick up some emergency medication for him. She even got him a birthday present, for the last day he stayed as it happened to coincide with his birthday. I could not recommend her highly enough to give you peace of mind when you are away.
5⭐️s just doesn’t sound enough of a rating for Eastfield Dog Boarding! The house, garden & paddocks are within a secure & beautiful setting. As soon as I met Alex on our meet & greet I knew she would be the perfect holiday Mum to my 3yr old Golden Retriever Robbie for the duration of his 15 day stay. Alex has a wonderful natural rapport with the dogs & they are welcomed into her family as if one of her own. Robbie has lived his best life enjoying amazing countryside & beach walks everyday & wonderful playtimes in the garden & paddocks with the beautiful Ollie. The love, care & attention Robbie has had is amazing, he can get quite anxious but the time was taken to reassure & help him settle from the moment he arrived. There has been excellent communication from Alex throughout Robbie’s stay & we looked forward to her daily photos & videos of all his adventures. Having found this perfect place I can’t imagine Robbie ever staying anywhere else & can’t recommend it enough. Thank you so much Alex, I know Robbie is going to miss you, your Husband & Ollie.🐾💙
Absolutely so happy I found the perfect place for our much loved pampered Bella to stay over for a few days whilst hubby took us away just before Christmas for a few days. It was Bella’s first time staying over with Alex and her lovely family with their family dog Olly and also Bella’s first encounter with cats and I think it was safe to say she absolutely loved her stay with Alex. Alex made sure Bella was so well looked after in the beautiful family home surroundings that Bella took to Alex like a second mum. She went on beautiful long country walks and came back to lots and lots of cuddles on the sofa. Alex sent me photos and kept me posted throughout Bella’s stay which helped keep my mind at ease. On collection I honestly don’t think Bella wanted to come home as she was so happy and content with Alex and her family. I would highly recommend Eastfield Dog Boarding to anyone who is looking to board their much loved pooch whilst they are away. Thank you once again Alex 🐾🐾💖 (P.S. I think Bella misses you too) xx
Our Golden Retriever spent 18 days at Eastfield Boarding. As soon as we met Alex and Ollie for our pre visit appointment, we knew what an amazing time he would have. Alex kept in contact with us regularly while we were away, sending us photos and videos of Marley absolutely living his best life! I was quite jealous of all the beautiful walks in different places that he went on. Alex and her family treated Marley like a member of their family and he was a spoilt with all the yummy treats he had. When we arrived to pick Marley up he initially came to see us and then ran back inside and made himself comfy, it was so lovely to see how calm and comfortable he was in his surroundings. We can’t wait for Marley’s next stay and can’t thank Alex, she’s amazing and Marley has made a best friend in Ollie
Fantastic from start to finish with our 2 retrievers Daisy & Rose! Went for an initial meet and greet, lovely house, fantastic gardens / paddocks for them, and great communications (with plenty of update photos and videos) from the off. Alex is a true professional and we can not wait to come back!
Maddie absolutely loved it here. It's a home from home. Treat like one of their own. Got plenty of cuddles and to play with Ollie. It's reassuring to know the paddock is safe for those who are still learning recall. Miles better than kennels.
Our lab Buster had an amazing time at Eastfield Dog Boarding, he was looked after so well and had the most fantastic walks whilst he was there. I cannot recommend enough, thank you 💙 …
I can very highly recommend Alex at Eastfield Dog Boarding, my 11 month old cocker spaniel has never left me but was in the best place ever, daily updates of all Toby adventures from running round the garden, in the paddock or on walks with the other dogs, then pictures of him fast asleep on the sofa, definitely home from home wouldn't hesitate to send Toby again
Highly recommended!! Very professional care. My dog was treated like in own home and I had a worry free head while on holiday. Everything what you can dream for your dog is there… sofa cuddles, tummy rub, forest walk, seaside run… just amazing. Thank you
I have never left my beloved yorkie with any one but family, but age has made her temperamental and this means I cannot leave her with family now. A good friend recommended Carr Lane Kennels, and what a great recommendation! My Georgie came home after a week happy and no sign what so ever of being anything but a happy doggy! I must admit I did think she may come home a little somewhat depressed but no she is relaxed and happy and I will 100% be taking her for her holidays to Carr Lane Kennels again! Thank you to all at Carr Lane it means a lot.
Home from home for my dog. We leave our dog in the full knowledge that he's well looked after. He sometimes even gets a shampoo wash and smells lovely on collection. Great friendly staff also.
Took our Border Collie for day care for the first time yesterday. Staff were very friendly and took very good care of Ollie. Booked in again for tomorrow.
Our 5 big floofs stayed here in Dec last year for 3 nights and for 2wks recently and we are always so worried on holiday about them but we didn’t worry this time and we’re confident they were happy and cared for. They came back washed and beautiful ready for work which also saved us a massive stress. They came running to us looking happy and didn’t run to our van so this speaks volumes about their mental wellbeing in that they were happy and not in a rush to go! Thank you Kevin and team for your great care and even all the extras to get them eating their dinners 😂 www.therapyhuskies.co.uk
Excellent boarding for our cat Heidi, and we have been going here for the last 3 years. Great price, excellent facilities, knowledgeable and friendly staff and owners. Would (and do) recommend to everyone who needs a cattery or boarding kennel. A unique service of pick up or drop off for your pet can be arranged if required, and we have used this excellent service a couple of times due to travel plans.
Fifi came back with a lovely brushed coat. She was obviously really cared for. Thank you Kevin Good to know that she was in good hands.Would recommend, Susie and Phil
Brilliant place and very affordable. Our Polo came back washed and clean and didn't even sulk like where we used yo take him when we go away .We'll done guys ,you are the best and Polo is absolutely knackered. I recommend this place if you want piece of mind
Thank you Carr lane kennels.just picked Bella up this morning and after ten nights in your care she is still one happy dog. Thank you for taking care of her so well.
Took George here for the weekend. Lovely place owner and staff. Would definitely recommend
Absolutely first class the two ladies who were on duty are excellent loads of advice warm and friendly and so caring…when we picked up Winston our adopted cat it was a absolute joy.
Excellent service thank you Sandie
Absolutely appalling customer service. Been taking my puppy regularly to the ‘Puppy Nights’ on a Monday, unfortunately I did forget this evening as in hospital with my little girl. I was asked if I was coming tonight, to which I sincerely apologised for and had been stuck in hospital. The response I got was with absolutely not sympathy or condolences and slapped with an invoice, which I have paid. But absolutely disgusting service.
Wouldn't dare leave my dog there again. Make sure you ask to see behind scenes before leaving your dog in their care, also check staff to dog ratio. Staff seem to have no idea how to entertain dogs other than shove them all together to entertain themselves. Your dog is just a number!
Rose is experienced, reliable, trustworthy and we know 'Arthur' is always safe and having lots of fun! He absolutely loves her. We would without hesitation recommend Rose.
Rose is marvellous. So caring, knowledgeable, and helpful. Great with advice for our new pup. Frozen carrots for mouthy youngsters is inspired.
Vicky jumped in to pet-sit our two dogs during a family wedding after the originally-booked sitter pulled out. I have to say that she couldn't have been better. She was superb with our dogs, including our very nervous collie, punctual, attentive and very easy to deal with. She also asked to reduce the fee by £50, even though she was aware of the amount we agreed with the previous sitter because she thought it was fairer. I can highly recommend her.
Attended fantastic puppy class with Vicky. Great practical advice and training. Would happily recommend to others - especially for first-time pup parents.
A brilliant dog walker and general pet lover and carer, would always recommend to anybody in the area. We always know our pets are cared for, loved and safe with Vicky.
Buddy spent a long weekend while we were on holiday. He was booked into multiple group sessions and for a groom at the end. When we picked him up he was happy and full of beans. Home from Home accomodated us in storing the car crate, giving us more bootspace for our journey and accepted Buddy's food to keep his diet the same as it is at home. Both greatly appreciated. Unfortuantely after 4 or 5 group play sessions we only have two pictures to see the friends he made and the fun he should(?) have had (attached), only receiving these after constant reminding (no pictures were available on Facebook or privately). I requested the brands used during Buddy's groom (assuming it was this) as he came home with a rash on his tender bits, later moving to the base of his tail. Fortunately our pet insurance offers free video vet services (Home from Home did offer to cover any vet costs etc to their credit). I am still waiting for the product names almost 4 weeks later, in order for us to avoid them (the products) in future. All in all ok which is disapointing as I was expecting much more.
Took care of my two cats for a month or so and I was able to visit during that time. Quite spacious and tiered cubicles that they were kept in together and monitored daily. Obviously a little noisy with other cats and dogs in neighbouring surrounding cubicles and buildings but my cats seemed quite settled regardless. Would recommend.
I took my dog to there family friendly dog show and of course she won best in she. That meant she won a couple of nights stay. So we used our prize. I can definitely say I highly recommend home from home. The staff was super with bea and she went in very happy, came out even happier. Love that they post photos on their Facebook for them having fun. Thank you we shall be returning 🥰🐶🐾
We often use these kennels for our 2 Frenchies and Border Terrier for both daycare and overnight stays. Before their first visit I came to view the kennels. They are clean, spacious warm and comfortable. The staff are always professional and welcoming too. There are also lots of additional services you can book for your pets including grooming, extra walks, 1-1 time etc. When my dogs come for a stay they jump up at the door and push it open themselves, clearly looking forward to it. I love it that I can easily book a stay online via their website. I think that is really helpful rather than having to ring up to book.
Took our 3 year old border terrier Hamish for his very first overnight stay😧...I was soooooh apprehensive and nervous they would not care for him at the level I expected. All my initial fears were completely resolved as soon as I met the staff, each and everyone, verbally and non verbally made me realise Hamish would be cared for. When he was taken to his Hillside room (much quieter area), Saffy reasured me even more just how much the staff cares, I was happy she was taking him for his play session. Hamish was only there for one overnight stay, when he was collected the following day, he was bouncy, energetic, his little tail going like the clappers....yep I was very happy 😊. It's a wonderful caring environment to take your precious gargo!! We are planning to access the day to socialise with other dogs.
This was my dog's first experience of staying in kennels, so we were really apprehensive. I needn't have worried. Home from Home has a very professional feel and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Ringo had a 3 night stay and, when I picked him up, he was absolutely fine; like he'd never been away. I would definitely recommend.
Just want to thank everyone for taking care of Bella our Frenchie whilst we had a week away in Turkey. She has come back full of beans and can't thank the staff enough for looking after her. Grooming team have done a great job aswell
Friendly Staff, great facilities, my dog gets excited when she knows she is going. Couldn't ask for better!
As a truck driver take a rigid only ,I took an artic very tight ,but had a couple of banks men. Great team here very helpful.
Brilliant first time I’ve left my dog in the 6 years of having him and they looked after him like he was there own defo be using again
