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.

"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.
Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!
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!
Lindsey was super communicative, friendly, responsible, and an excellent sitter for our two cats. When we returned, our home was clean and our cats relaxed and happy as if we had never left ! She sent us photos and updates every day, as requested, and when a random mishap occurred in the apartment, she let us know right away and was proactive in handling issue. We felt like both our cats and our home were in very caring, capable and respectful hands. Excellent! Thank you Lindsey!
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!
Angel was absolutely the best house sitter we could have hoped for. She is a very warm, open and diligent person and our two cats adored her. She looked after our house and garden with really conscientious care. She won over our very timid cat, Billie, and sent regular photos of both cats looking supremely content which gave us perfect peace of mind. The house was completely spotless on our return and the garden was fabulous... no mean feat since there was a heatwave while we were away and she kept everything watered and in great condition. We would have Angel back at the drop of a hat and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathryn! I needed to extend dates for the sit after we had set it up and she was able to accommodate this so was actually here from 10/4-20. She was timely and communicative throughout - and she is a very nice person. She kept the house really tidy and followed all instructions well. My cats took to her quickly. When I returned, they had been very well cared for and seemed fully content even though I'd never left them for long before. While away, I reached out to Kathryn by text several times regarding deliveries, etc. She was very prompt in responding and adept at handling issues as they arose. I highly recommend Kathryn as a house sitter - and would happily work with her again!
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
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!
Miranda and Sam have been cat sitters for my cats for the last 5 years. They are absolutely fantastic! Clear communication and updates following each visit, incredibly professional and the most important thing they really care about the cats. As my boys have gotten older Miranda and Sam have been brilliant able to give them extra TLC when needed as well as following increasingly complicated food and medication regimes! When my flight was delayed it was no problem to book in an emergency additional visit. Knowing they are caring for them gives me the peace of mind to be able to go away knowing they are in safe hands and truly cared for. Would highly recommend, you could not ask for better people to be caring for your cats
Quality of care of our cats was good over the course of a year but sadly two unacceptable behaviours resulted in us having to end Miranda cat sitting for us. Firstly, Miranda would send passive aggressive messages to us (on multiple occasions) while we were away which we felt was completely unnecessary and inappropriate and would often upset us while we were trying to enjoy our time away. Secondly, we recently found out that Miranda and Sam (her sister) lied about visiting our cats - they sent the same set of photos from another visit and thought we wouldn't notice. When we respectfully confronted them about it, Miranda continued to lie and got very aggressive with us. What was also disappointing was that this was one of the hottest weekends of the year and the cats were stuck inside with no-one to check on them. Overall, we realised that we couldn't trust Miranda (or Sam) to care for our cats appropriately or deal with us professionally. Such a shame that it ended this way.
Miranda is excellent! She had a great, patient approach with my anxious cat and sent us regular updates with photos. She has also been extremely accommodating with our schedule changes and requirements, and really took the time to get to know our cat, her personality and needs. Will absolutely book again :)
I was very happy with the service from Miranda at Mischievous Meows looking after my cats. She is very attuned, attentive and nurturing to my cats and I noticed they were very happy after having spent time with Miranda. She is clearly diligent and she is also reliable and where she said she would be, so accountable and reputable. I would highly recommend her services to any who are going away and do not want to use boarding as an option and have kitties cared for from the comfort of home. I trust Miranda and I can see she is only focussed on the wellbeing of the cats and I found my home in same condition as I left it. 5 star service!!
Miranda looked after my cat last week, and I was so happy with the service she provided. The updates and photos she sent were lovely, and i felt like I had left my cat in safe hands. Would 100% recommend!
I highly recommend Miranda for cat sitting- she is very trustworthy, good communication and has an easy, efficient booking process. My cat, Michael-Scott, is always very calm and content after Miranda’s visit. Miranda is very knowledgable on cats and is very caring. I always have peace of mind and can rely on her when I’m away.
We never left our cats alone before, so Miranda had to deal with two crazy cats and our separation anxiety. She did a great job in both areas. We feel confident that, when we have to leave our kittens at home for a while, they will be in the best hands. I recommend Miranda without any reservation.
From the first visit, Miranda was brilliant with our nervous young cat, who is usually very shy around strangers but warmed to her straight away. Excellent service, keeping us up to date and setting our minds at ease throughout our first time leaving our cat. Highly recommended.
Miranda looked after my two cats while I went on holiday. I would recommend her service too anyone and everyone. Although one of my cats hid the whole time, she still tried to calm him and get him to warm up to her. My other kitten would with growl with toys which amazingly stopped after Mirandas time with her. It's clear that this isn't just a job for her but she genuinely loves cats. She gave me such piece of mind leaving them for a week, which was my first time leaving them that long. Every visit she made she would send an update and pictures. Will 100% be a returning client when I have to go away again. I returned to two very happy cats who were well looked after.
Miranda has taken care of our cat several times when we have been away. She had always made sure to give him the best possible care, spending time playing with him and sending us photos every day. Miranda is very reliable and always makes herself available to suit our schedule. It is a huge relief knowing that someone who genuinely cares about our pet is visiting him while we are away. I have no hesitation in recommending her services.
We can't recommend Happy Hounds enough. Our dog Coco, loves his sitter Ellie. She's is amazing, looks after Coco so well and we can see that every time she comes to pick him up. He's so so happy to see her and to go with her. Everything is very organised and so easy to manage on the website and we get multiple updates daily by whatsapp. Chloe is also very nice and so helpful with any questions you have. Unfortunately we're leaving the area and Coco won't be able to join daycare with Ellie anymore. If you're looking for a doggy daycare you're on the right place, they understand perfectly how important your pet is for you and they do anything to help the pet feel happy and the owners too. Do your pet and yourself a favor and enroll your pet with Happy Hounds :)
We have been using Happy Hounds and Cooler Cats for years and the service from Chloe and the team is amazing. Our dog always comes back so happy from his group walks and it’s clear he enjoys his time with his walkers immensely. The team’s help has been invaluable to us, making sure he gets the exercise and fun he needs, especially during our busiest times!
We've been working with Happy Hounds for a few months now and feel very lucky to have them. We experienced a few of their dog walkers and sitters, who've all been incredibly professionals, accommodating and caring for our dog. Highly recommend their services.
We have been using HH+CC since we moved to the area for our cat and then our puppy (now all grown up). The team are amazing for regular daycare, walks, holiday sitting and manage to accommodate my last- minute requests! They even were able to help make my dog part of our wedding day ❤️ trusted and professional - highly recommend (special shout out to Kerry and Samantha) x
I got in touch with Happy Hounds when it was time to return to work (having gained a puppy during lockdown) and they were so helpful in getting me set up with recurring services, answering any questions I had and they made leaving my puppy to return to work so much easier both emotionally and practically. My pup really enjoys the daycare and the socialisation has helped her a lot in many training aspects (even if there is still work to do). They also provide daily updates (with pics) of your pooch while they're gone which is super reassuring and something to brighten your day. They're very fairly priced and just seem like a lovely bunch of people who love what they do. I'd definitely recommend this services to other dog owners - my puppy loves going and I don't have to worry at all while she's gone.
Without doubt the best dog walking service that we have ever used. The team at Happy Hounds are completely professional and always accommodating of last minute requests as best as they can. Our dog Dalton adores his walkers, is always excited to be picked up and comes home exhausted and happy, ready for a nap. We are sent videos of his outings which is really lovely for us, and the walkers are always vigilant to any changes in behaviour and report back to us if they have any concerns. It is a relief to know that our precious boy is in such safe and loving hands. Thanks Happy Hounds!
Had our first boarding experience with Johanna who watched Olive for us and I must say how comfortable my husband and I felt with her ! She stayed in touched with us, sent photos and updates..and put a business contact number tag on her collar just in case anything were to happen ..I really appreciated that extra safety..as someone who suffers with anxiety and I always worry about my pup when we go away, I can say I feel quite at ease knowing she will be in good hands with her ! Thank you again
I honestly can't speak highly enough about Happy Hounds. After recently moving to east london with my two dogs and having to work some days in the office, I felt very anxious about who would walk my dogs when I was at work. My dogs are my world and whilst looking online it dawned on me that I was actually trying to find someone to walk the most important thing I own. I felt so relieved to come across Happy Hounds. They are very responsive and helped me with all my queries. My dog walker from Happy Hounds is the loviest person and I couldn't feel happier knowing my babies are in such safe hands! Highly recommend their service. Thanks Happy Hounds!
We contacted Happy Hounds to organise daycare for our dog Ludo while I was pregnant, so that we could have some extra help to see me through the new born stage. My son is now 18 months and we’ve only now said our goodbyes! The service is excellent, so friendly and they always gave an update inc photos on the days Ludo was in daycare. Thanks to Chloe and the team.
I can’t rave about Happy Hounds more! My Zeppelin comes back looking adorable every time he goes there for a groom. Very kind & lovely people too! They do a perfect job.
Aurora is a fantastic walker. She really cares about dogs and Rhia was clearly very happy with her walks. I felt totally secure with her service. Aurora is great with communication and send great pictures. I would highly recommend and will be using again in the future!
I'm very happy with Aurora's help to look after Bobby, my cat, for almost a week. She was very thorough and knowledgeable with good experience taking care of pets. I love that she send daily pictures and updates, she even asked if I need my plants to be watered! Highly recommended and I'll use her service again, no doubt!
Aurora comes to walk my energetic husky Mischa for me every now and then - and Mischa is delighted every time! Aurora takes wonderful care of her, sending me tonnes of pictures of their adventures together, and is 100% reliable. She is even great for last-minute appointments (so long as she can squeeze us in) and is always very communicative. Would recommend her services to anyone!
Aurora is a very experienced, knowledgeable and capable pet sitter. She takes time to get to know you and your pet(s), and really cares deeply about their wellbeing. I would 100% recommend Aurora to anyone who wants to know that their beloved pet is in the best care possible. Thanks Aurora!
Aurora has looked after my cat a few times when I’ve been away. She is trustworthy and I feel she really cares about him. She understands that a cat needs love and attention just as much as they need food and water. I can enjoy going on holiday knowing that my companion is being well looked after.
Aurora took care of our Boston Terrier and Vizsla for one night, and we couldn’t be happier! She has awesome knowledge, especially she knew how to work with our energetic Vizsla. Super responsible, she follows all safety rules, ensuring our dogs were secure and comfortable. Aurora is also very communicative, competent, and incredibly nice. She is not just a sitter, she is a dog expert. Highly recommend!
Aurora was great with our springer spaniel. Really conscientious and obvious she loves animals. Great communication and lots of cute photo updates!Will definitely be using Aurora again. Thanks, Aurora
Aurora is absolutely amazing. She came over to meet my cat, Pigeon, before taking on the job to make sure they both got on and she knew where everything was. Then, she was super thorough and asked for lots of details about Pigeon and her health and who our vets were etc. incase of any issues when she was cat sitting. This was massively appreciated and let me know Aurora was an amazing choice as cat-sitter! I got pictures of pigeon when I was away so I knew everything was okay and I felt so reassured the whole time which meant I could really enjoy myself. I wouldn't hesitate to use Aurora for cat-sitting again, and can't recommend others do the same!! And see attached for some lovely pics of Pigeon and Aurora!
Aurora took really good care of my Penelope (cat) when I had to go away urgently. They got on instantly so I knew she would be in great company. I received an update and photos everyday which was a great part of the service and Aurora kept me updated on anything else that occurred during the 2 weeks. I could not be happier with the service and I know Penelope was really looked after. I will definitely be using Aurora's services in the future and will recommend to family and friends.
Our cockapoo has been going to Aurora since April 2021 (when he was about 14 weeks old) for daycare 2-3 times a week and overnights, and he couldn’t be happier! Aurora, Diego and her dogs are his second family - they’ve taken such good care of him, I really don’t know what we would do without her. Even since we moved out of the area last month, we still send him for overnights because it’s such a comfort to know he’s somewhere where he’s loved and looked after. We have also sent him for longer periods when we have been away on holiday and she’s been great. She is always very reliable, communicative and really knows how to take care of animals. Do not hesitate to book, but be warned, your dog may have a new favourite!
I feel so lucky to have found Ingrid! I have two pugs and one of them is old and in need of special attention, as he can no longer walk. She is the only one I trust 100% to leave them with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She loves them and they love her. :)
Thank you so much! Ingrid was sending updates and videos EVERY day, I could see my cat was very happy! She stayed with our cat for a month and took great care of her. Everything was spotless when I came back. Very happy with her service. Thank you :)
She has taken care of my dog while I was away for a trip, and she kept sending pictures and videos of her walks with her, demonstrating care and was very responsive in messages. Would recommend to everyone.
We had a trip scheduled and needed a cat sitter to take care of our 2 cats for a week. Before the trip, one of our cats fell ill and Ingrid came to our house daily to take care of her, including taking special care with her food and medications. We had peace of mind during the trip because Ingrid kept us updated with photos, videos and news about how our cats were doing. We will certainly contact her again when we need someone to take care of our kitties.
Ingrid is a punctual person, super kind and very careful with our pets. Always willing and affectionate, she goes on walks and takes care of our dogs whenever we need her. When we return home, the two dogs are always very happy and seem to have had a great time together!
🇧🇷 Great professional, sent photos every day, took great care of my 3 cats. One of them, who is super fearful and has difficulty trusting strangers, I went to ask her for affection on the third day. 🇬🇧 Great professional, sent pictures every day, took great care of my 3 cats. One of them, who is super scared and finds it difficult to trust strangers, went to ask her for affection on the third day.
I can’t rate the Dog In Black team highly enough! I’ve been using them every week for over a year now for my Border Terrier & large Lurcher for dogs walks, they’re always great communicators, send updates with pictures & have never let me down. I have also recently used them twice for home stay / house sit care & both times they were great & I know the dogs were much happier being looked after in their own home. Highly recommend the wonderful Dog In Black team!
Ruby was so professional with my puppy, the whole service from dealing with admin to keeping me updated with times of pick up and drop off. I got pictures during the day and this made me so happy as I knew my puppy was in safe hands. I look forward to having them take care of her once a week. To boost her socially and grow in confidence with other dogs. I would would definitely recommend 👌
Dog in Black and in particular Cihan are a real find. My dog is a rescue and finding the right person to look after her is quite challenging. Cihan spent enough time getting to know and understand her allowing him to tailor his care perfectly to her needs. Working with Dog in Black is a joy I would recommend them to anybody who needs good dog care. Thank you
Absolutely wonderful service from Dog in Black for a number of years now. My Labrador Ted has been walked by them 3-4 times a week for at the last two-three years. The carers over that time have always been fantastic, very communicative and clearly experienced and dog lovers in general. For anyone interested in more of the details, for the standing arrangements where your pup is walked 3-4 times a week on similar/the same days they aim to have the same carer do all of their walks. Its a great setup which means that my dog builds a great relationship/bond with the walkers. Special shoutout to Becky, Alana, Louise and Madika who have all at various times been Teds primary walker and have always done an amazing job. They send you lovely updates after the walk every day, and when you're having a bad day in the office its always nice to get a few pictures/videos of your dog out there living his best life. They have always been very flexible and quick to respond on the administrative side and I really have nothing but good things to say about them. Thanks to all of the team and I look forward to many more years of one seriously happy and tired Labrador when I get in from the office.
Very friendly and helpful - the dog walkers seem professional, totally on their best game and love their job. Their advice/training seems great - would totally trust and recommend
Arnie had an absolutely wonderful time at Dog in Black doggy daycare. His carer Louise was very sweet and reassuring and sent us updates on how he was doing. The entire Dog in Black team are incredibly helpful and flexible, always trying their best to accommodate your needs. They are a pleasure to deal with and we'll definitely be using their services again!
Highly recommended! My two dogs, Finn and Aoife, have been doing daycare and walkies with Dog In Black for close to 2 years now. It has been a great experience, all of the carers have been polite, friendly and are fantastic with the dogs. They both get so excited to go out with the carers and always come back nice and tired, ready for an afternoon snooze. Really wonderful experience all round!
Thank you so much for always taking such good care of my doggy. The best carers. My doggy loves being pet-sit by Dog in Black. They are so accommodative to last minute schedules. Very responsible, I feel so relaxed because they always update with pictures. The best pet-sitters in East London. Can’t recommend them enough. Special thanks to Alana and Louise for always supporting us. Alana is a star! My doggy has finally loved being pet-sit and now she excitedly waits for her doggy adventure with Alana. Thank you to all the other pet-sitters too who have always taken such good care of my little one.
Having seen the care and attention that Dog in Black have for dogs of all sizes, breeds and backgrounds, we did not hesitate to book our pup in with them. We had concerns as our pup is a little bit hyperactive but we need not have worried. We had regular updates throughout the day and our pup arrived back with a big smile on his face having loved his day out. I cannot recommend Dog in Black high enough and will be continuing to use them in the future.
Our puppy absolutely loves going to his adventure pup day care! We have noticed how much more independent he has become in only a few weeks. We really appreciate the flexibility, you are able to book as many days as you like which really fits into our work pattern. We’ve also found it really valuable to get professional feedback on a weekly basis (the training done during doggy daycare is also a little bonus) Couldn’t do without them now!
We’ve been taking our puppy to Tailwaggers East for a few weeks now, and we couldn’t be happier with the care they provide! Shari and Millie are always so friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. Our pup gets very excited every time we pull up, and I know she’s in good hands while we’re at work. We love getting updates and pictures of her having fun with the other pups. The flexibility to drop off and pick her up is also a big plus! Thank you for making we feel like part of the family! We couldn’t ask for a better daycare!!!
Our dog Lola absolutely loves Tailwaggers! She has been going there almost every weekday, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and attention she receives. From the moment we started, it was clear how much the team loves dogs. Lola gets so excited to go in the mornings that she even wants to go on weekends and bank holidays when they’re closed! The regular updates and pictures Millie and Shari send us are such a lovely touch—it’s so reassuring to see her having fun, playing with her doggy friends, and getting plenty of cuddles. It’s obvious how happy she is there, and it gives us complete peace of mind knowing she’s in such a safe, loving, and fun environment. Sadly, Lola can’t attend anymore as we’re moving to another country, but we’ll miss the wonderful team and the amazing experience she had. We can’t recommend Tailwaggers enough. Shari and Millie truly go above and beyond for the dogs in their care, and Lola has made so many friends and wonderful memories.
Shari is a beautiful person with a heart as pure as gold. She regularly looks after my little beloved dachshund, Luna, and I have complete confidence in her. I can rest assured, knowing that Luna receives the utmost love, attention, walks, playtime, and, of course, all the cuddles and kisses when she’s with Shari. Luna absolutely adores Shari’s dog Gizmo and she gets so excited to see him. Shari consistently goes the extra mile by sending me pictures and videos to keep me updated. I wholeheartedly recommend Shari to anyone with a dog; her caring and sensitive nature makes her the perfect choice for canine companionship.
My dog Barney has recently started with Tailwaggers! The day care is absolutely amazing, Shari & Millie are great and 100% care for my dog and all the dogs, they really take pride in getting to know the dogs individually and treat them like their own! The flexible hours are great for drop off and pick up! I would definitely recommend
I'm so happy to hear that Shari is opening a dog daycare in London! Having had the pleasure of Shari looking after my cavapoo, Stevie, I can confidently say that there's no one else I'd trust more with my pup! Stevie adored Shari's dog, Gizmo, and the bond they shared was truly heartwarming. If I were still in London, there's no doubt that Shari's daycare would be the only place for Stevie. I'm sure the new daycare will provide a safe and loving environment for all dogs, just like Shari did for Stevie. Highly recommended!
My dog doesn’t usually enjoy being away from me. But I cannot praise Tailwaggers enough. He absolutely loves it here. And Shari and Millie are incredible with him. His new favourite place! it’s hard to get him to leave!
I am over the moon that shari along with millie are opening a dog daycare in london. If I was not living in kent, their daycare would unquestionably be teddy’s home away from home. Shari has been looking after teddy in the past when I was still living in east london! Her passion and love for dogs and nurturing quality make her my first choice when it comes to looking after teddy! Teddy would get so excited and happy every time he saw shari and gizmo! The picture clearly shows how happy he is! I am completely confident that her daycare will be a sanctuary for dogs like teddy! Because shari has been looking after teddy in the past I can definitely recommend Tailwaggers East!!
Stan, my Parsons Terrier absolutely loves Shari and Millie. You really could not wish for more a more dog-loving day care. Highly, highly recommended and a great location too (just minutes from tube and DLR).
Fantastic doggy daycare ran by Shari and Millie, I used to work with both these girls and they truly have a huge love for dogs and are so kind hearted & natured. Your dog couldn't be in safer hands.
Found the perfect doggy daycare for our pup! He’s so well looked after and we get regular pictures throughout the day of his walks and swims with the other dogs!😊 …
Jade’s service is perfectly professional & faultless, couldn’t recommend more highly. In our case, she gives once-a-day visits to our cat when we’re away. Was understandably hesitant about giving my keys to a stranger, but my worries were alleviated from the first meeting. Look no further if you’re looking for a local pet sitter.
Jade is so lovely and great with our little cat. She was able to help us at short notice and sent us regular pics and videos to reassure us. She is excellent value for money. We will definitely be using her again. A fantastic service for pet owners on the Isle of dogs. Thank you Jade.
Jade, my cat sitter, was absolutely wonderful. She took care of my feline friend with such love and attention. Her sweet and calming voice instantly put my cat at ease. Jade went the extra mile to make sure my cat felt comfortable and loved while I was away. I could tell my cat was well taken care of and happy upon my return. I highly recommend Jade for anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter. Thank you, Jade, for taking such great care of my fur baby!
We are so lucky to have found Furry Friendz! We have used the service three times now. Jade is a reliable, professional cat sitter and we have been blessed since she started caring for our baby when we are away. Our cat is very shy and does not like to have other humans around apart from us. After only one day Jade started taking care of her, she immediately warmed up! Jade sends regular updates when she makes the visits and keeps an open communication, which is really helpful. I highly recommend her, you can’t miss!
Jade took care of our THREE kittens for three whole weeks whilst we were on vacation. Not only did she do a remarkable job, but she exceeded our expectations by performing tasks that we didn't even request of her! Jade is a wonderful professional to communicate with and we are very grateful to have had her taking care of our kittens. Lovely experience, 100% recommend, especially if you're worried about leaving your pets alone!
Jade has been such an amazing cat sitter for our two cats. She has been so good with them and they really love her. We always feel confident that they are happy and well looked after when we are away.
Jade was a brilliant cat sitter, she kept me updated with pictures and messages and gave max lots of attention and cuddles!! Really made a difference knowing max was in safe hands!! Brilliant service
Excellent pet service! Jade is really a professional in caring the pets. We left our cat with Jade and later when we picked up we feel that she was safe here. Jade is very friendly and gentle. I highly recommend her!
Highly recommend- Jade has looked after our kitten a couple of times while we've gone away, and we couldn't be more happy! She's always so attentive and reliable and my cat loves her. I can always trust Jade to make sure my cat is happy while we're away and it makes a difference. Thank you!
Jade looked after our slightly nervous rescue cat when we went on holiday and we came back to find he had made a new best friend! She was super nice when she came round before we went and we went away feeling completely confident that he was in great hands. Really appreciated the daily photo and coming home to a very happy kitty. Will definitely use her services again and would recommend 100%. Jade also very generously watered our plants whilst we were away which was a God send in the heat!
The team at Polly’s Pet Care have been looking after our cats for over 14 years now. We book two visits a day whenever we go on holiday and, in all that time, we have never had any problems. They are amazing people - kind, conscientious, trustworthy, extremely careful and huge animal lovers. All our cats have grown to adore them over the years. Highly recommend these guys.
The brilliant Polly's Pet Care team have looked after our dog for almost 4 years now and I would highly recommend them. Lyra loves all her walkers and they really know and care for her. She's even got her own pillow in the car! The team are absolutely reliable and flexible too if I need to book an extra walk or cancel an existing one.
I have used Polly’s Pet Care for many years now for cat visits and cannot recommend Sam and her fantastic team highly enough. So friendly and trustworthy and their love for animals shines through. They provide great care and I always know that my cat (and home) is in safe hands.
A truly wonderful company! We have been using Polly's Pet Care to walk our beloved little Frenchie and every week he looks forward to seeing them! Sam (Company Director) and Sydney are our main walkers and they are simply wonderful! They are so interested in our little fella, so caring and so loving. They take them out to the best parks and woodlands and always ensure they are scrubbed down before entering the house. We have also used Polly's for house sitting. They were incredibly polite and considerate when staying in our home. We cam home to a beautifully clean place, just how we left it. I couldn't recommend Poly's enough. We tried a couple of companies in the area and they stand out my a mile. Thank you team for being the best there is for out little dude (and for us!)
I can’t thank Sam and her team enough for the great care that they take of our dog. Sam is always at the end of the phone answering any questions we may have. The safe guarding around walking the dogs is second to none and I know that while she is out with them she will not only having fun but that she is on the safest of hands. I love the photos and videos we get sent of her which is such a lovely touch. We have never been let down by the team and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the local area. Well done team, you do a tremendous job.
I cannot recommend Polly’s Pet Care highly enough. Sam and the team have always been very friendly and professional. We have consistently received an excellent service for our Leonberger and it’s apparent that animal care is at the forefront. I have total confidence in them walking our girl and she absolutely loves her walks.
I’ve used Polly’s Pet Care for a number of years, as holiday care for our lovely cat. They are fabulous, he is well looked after & always gets lots of attention, plus we get regular updates and photos. 100% recommended.
Polly's pet care have walked my dog for years. They are brilliant. He loves his walks with them while I'm at work and I trust them completely. Can't recommend enough.
Sam and her team are brilliant; reliable, trustworthy, and really care about the animals they look after. Nothing is too much effort, from sending photos of the cats, to emptying postbox and solving last minute key problems. I highly recommend!
We have been using Polly's for years now and we've always been very satisfied from their service. Lovely people taking care of our beloved cats.
Found Paws Galore online and sent an enquiry. From the first email response Kacey and the team have been fantastic. Very helpful, responsive and accommodating. We had Jenny as our cat sitter for our two elderly (16&17 yo) cats. Jenny took time to understand their routines and needs. One of our cats has hypothyroid and Jenny was great at making sure our cat took her tablets and ensuring they had play time and strokes both morning and evening. I felt relaxed while we were away and I would recommend this company. Jenny also sent regular pics and updates and our cats seemed super happy in her care. Thank you team! We will be back for more! 🐈⬛ 🐈 thank you from James and Etty too 🐾
Fantastic ! Absolutely recommended. I had Mark as cat sitter took care of my Luna...perfectly! Great communication and fair prices ! I am now a regular and will be booking paws Galore again soon ! Thank you for taking away all my stress and anxiety whilst I was away! Laura
I’m hugely grateful to Kacey and Brenda who looked after our cat over the summer for 2 weeks. This was the first time we’d used a cat sitter; we thought it was a better option for him to stay at home than to go to a cattery. Kacey’s service and prompt and organised; She found a sitter quickly and the booking process is very easy to follow. Brenda is a conscientious cat sitter, who did an amazing job looking after our cat, particularly as it was a lot of work getting him to eat for the first few days. She was very solutions oriented. Brenda kept us updated with texts and images so we knew he was safe, which meant we could get on and enjoy the holiday. By the end Brenda was his best friend and we came home to healthy and very loved little cat. Thank you Brenda!
We had a very good experience with Paws Galore. Brenda, our cat sitter, looked well after Artù. She took good care of him and sent many updates to us. We really appreciated when she managed to go last minute even if it was not planned in advance! Super happy with the service :)
Excellent service! Kacey is very accommodating and managed to even get me a last minute sitter. The sitters are great and friendly. I’ve had Aidan, Michelle and Becky. They were all lovely and took care of my puppy. I highly recommend Paws Galore pet sitters!
Thank you much for making our trip to London stress free. Frank was so friendly, polite and trustworthy. Frank, was a natural dog- lover. In the same sense,Brenda was equally as amazing, warm kind and assuring. Major enjoyed and so did we. Diolch / thank you both. We look forward, as well as Major of course, to entrusting him to to your care once again. Gwych!!
I recommend! Lila came to care for my cat 2x a day for a few days while I was on a work trip, she sent me updates and pictures. When I came back my cat seemed happy (whereas previously she would be grumpy if I left her alone overnight..)
I needed a cat sitter pretty last minute because my usual company dropped the ball. I called Paws Galore thinking it would be the first of several calls to find an available pet sitter. I spoke to Kacey and she was very nice and understanding straight away. She assured me she could find a cat sitter and made me feel at ease. Within a few hours, I had a sitter assigned. The cat sitter contacted us quickly and was very communicative from then on. She made arrangements to come get the keys and meet our cats the next day. We took out trip and the sitter sent photos and detailed messages each day. She really went above and beyond when she came to visit the cats. She was really great! I am so glad that I found Paws Galore. I feel much more secure about leaving my cats with Paws Galore after one time than I did with the other company after years of using them. Thank you Kacey and Soraya!
I've used Pets Galore now a couple of times and have had a great experience both times. My cats are fairly timid around new people and so I was apprehensive about leaving them in a total strangers' hands, but Kacey couldn't have been more supportive and understanding - especially since I had been let down very last minute by another company whose service was clearly 2nd rate. I was paired with Michelle, who as soon as I met her, made me feel much more relaxed. Her natural calmness and chilled demeanour clearly filtered down to the cats and I could see through my daily updates that they were perfectly happy - meaning I was also happy whilst on holiday! Thanks Michelle and Kacey :)
Great service from Kacey and the team in arranging dog sitting for Arlo and Indy at our hotel in London (shout out also to Montague on the Gardens). Lee our sitter was great arriving in good time to hand over our two Goldies and had no issue staying on later than planned when we had tube difficulties getting back from the O2. Highly recommend them.
This is the first time I have had Zoey looking after my 2 cats. And myself and my husband would highly recommend her. My 17month old cat is not easy to look after if you are a Stranger, but Zoey had patience and persevered with her. We also had updates.I would use Zoey again and again, lovley lady.
Zoey has looked after all our cats (and fish) for many years now. She is amazing and makes going away so less stressful knowing that our furry family are well cared for. Over this time various cats have needed medications and it’s a relief to know Zoey is fully qualified and has it all under control. As a bonus she also looks after the house, security wise. What’s more to love! Can highly recommend.
Zoey looked after our cats whilst we were away - she's reliable and can be trusted to sort out any issues which arise! Would highly recommend her!
I’ve used Zoey a few times over the past year or so. Always polite and easy to contact. Having the peace of mind, that my elderly cats can stay happy at home is the perfect situation for all. Very good to accommodate even when it’s a little bit short of notice
Zoey took care of our cat during our summer holiday at late notice as our usual cat sitter was unavailable. Friendly, responsive and reliable, I would absolutely recommend her. Thanks Zoey for your help
Anna sat for my cat for 11 days over Christmas and did a great job. I found my cat happy and well fed upon my return, and Anna had followed all my instructions to a tee.
This was our first time having Zoey look after our two cats only having moved to the area a couple of days prior. She was so lovely and sent regular pictures and videos of my boys whilst I was away which I much appreciated as it put my worrisome mind at ease. Despite having initial difficulties with administering medication to one particularly grumpy old man, she was really patient and took her time to work out the best possible method without stressing him out too much. Happy to say I came back to two very happy cats :) I would highly recommend Zoey and we'll definitely be using her again very soon!
Zoey did a fantastic job looking after my cats, after enquiring with another cat sitter to learn her son was 13 and would be looking after my cats I contacted zoey as I wanted someone reliable and professional. I am so happy we found zoey and would highly recommend zoey as I. Will be using her services again
Zoey was great! Our cat Milo was very well cared for and happy and the house was kept secure in our absence. Would definitely recommend - many thanks!
Zoey was fantastic. She clearly loves animals and so you know that your cats are in safe hands. We got regular updates and came home to two very happy cats.
We’ve been using Your London Pet Sitter for the last few years and have found it to be a helpful and reliable service. The live-in cat sitters are friendly, send lots of photos and we can always tell when we come home that our cat has been very well looked after.
We've got a cat, and been with Your London Pet Sitter for 5 years now. Micaela is always very helpful and efficient in organising things, really helping us out with a couple of trickier arrangements. All of our cat sitters were amazing people who took great care of our furry friend. It's always been a 10/10 experience!
Cannot recommend enough! We've really struggled in the past to find a good dog sitter in London but London Pet Sitter has been a god send. They're always so quick to get back to any questions you have and the team are always so lovely and helpful. Having used them on three occasions so far to look after our pup who is quite a handful, we're so happy with this service. They really know what they're doing and really love our pup, we get constant pup-dates through out our time away so we don't have to worry about whats going on and our dog never wants us to get back :P
Trustworthy people for an impeccable service. We have been using YLPS for less than a year and have nothing but positive things to say about the impeccable service we receive every time. Micaela and her team are fantastic. We feel reassured every time our cat is in their care. We receive daily updates including videos and photos. I would highly recommend their pet sitting service to anyone in need.
I've been using YLPS for the past 2 years and it never disappoints. They always send the loveliest sitters, they take care of my cat's needs and also my flat. I'd highly recommend this professional service if you're looking for someone to take care of your furriends while you're away.
Fantastic experience with Your London Pet Sitter, my dog fell in love with Micaela while she took care of her. She also sent a lot of pictures and always kept me updated.
We’ve been using YLPS for 9 years now and have always been very satisfied with their service. It’s really important to be able to leave one’s pets with complete trust. And YLPS always delivered. My cats can remain within their familiar environment while we are away and it’s a much better experience than having to drive them to a pet hotel outside of London (usually quite far away). I would recommend their services without hesitation.
I've had a several, fantastic experiences with Your London Pet Sotter. The level of service has always been exceptional with detailed, regular feedback while I was away. I would highly recommend Your London Pet Sitter to everyone.
I couldn't ask for a better experience ! I have 2 cats with complex issues and feel SO supported. The love, dedication, passion, emergency support that I have been given is phenomenal. I'm often moved to tears by the care I have received at very vulnerable times for me. I have tried other services and nothing comes close to the experience I have received from Your London Pet Sitter. Thanks so much to you all. Great team and incredibly professional. PS, just because they are cats don't think this has been easy, Your London Pet Sitters have walked my cats too ! just like little puppies :)
We've been using YLPS since September 2021, and they have been a god-send. Booking is a breeze, and our sitters are consistently kind, loving, highly reliable and always communicative, which is hugely reassuring. We are so happy to have found them and highly recommend over any alternative service.
