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!
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
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.
Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
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!
We love Jill and the amazing kennels that she runs. We know the dogs will be well cared for and have a home from home if needed to be boarded inside.
I would recommend these kennels to everyone. Great quality of care and attention. Wonderful service.
Very friendly - dog always has a great time.
Nic and Nichola have turned our Vesper’s life around. Vesper became somewhat anti social as a result of a dog attack and a life threatening allergic reaction to medication. She tipped 50Kgs on the scale and was in a bad way. Nic and Nicola took her on as a project and her life has been turned around! She has lost over 10Kgs, runs and socialises with other dogs daily. She no longer barks at everything that moves, eats a well balanced diet and sleeps like a log at night. Thank you all for helping us out because Vesper is our fur baby.
Nic kindly agreed to come and look after our 2 ferrets at our home for nearly 3 weeks. Trying to find someone to do this was really difficult and Nic took a chance with this even though ferrets were new to him. He did an amazing job and the ferrets took to him really well. He came in and cleaned them out and played with them every day and sent us video and picture updates, which put my daughters mind at rest. Having access to this service has given us back the chance to go away as a family safe in the knowledge that the ferrets are happy and the house is safe. Would recommend Nic and his team to anyone looking for a professional pet service.
Great service. My pups always have a good time, and Nic and staff go the extra mile if needed. Would definitely recommend.
I can't recommend Nic highly enough. He is trustworthy, flexible and reliable but - most importantly - the care, play and attention he gives to my Bully is exactly what I was looking for when I found We Love Pets. It's not easy to find someone who you know will treat your pet as good as you would, but Nic always sends pictures and updates so I know he's having fun without me! If he could talk, I'm pretty sure he would tell me to work from the office more often!
Teddy my cocker spaniel goes to Nic four days a week for day care. He loves spending the day with Nic and his new pals Buddy and Lola. I feel very lucky to have found Nic . I know that Teddy is well cared for and treated like one of the family. Wouldn’t take my little man to anyone else.
I wanted Ash to have a home-from-home experience rather than placing her in kennels and I found just that! She was treated as part of the family and given all the attention and care I could hope for - thanks to Nic and family for looking after Ash so well. She enjoyed the company of humans and dog friends as well as the envious huge garden - I think she’s almost disappointed to be be in her normal habitat in comparison now! Thanks again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to everyone who wants a similar experience for their pets.
Derek is a very nervous boy when you meet him and Nic has been absolutely fantastic with him from the word go! He takes time to get to know all about Derek and what his likes and dislikes are and Derek has definitely made a new best friend for life! Nic is extremely helpful with my busy schedule and is always helping out where ever he can! He has taken so much pressure off of us with a busy lifestyle and Derek always enjoys the walks and time they spend together and comes back with a grin everytime! I cannot recommend Nic enough! Absolutely amazing!
Nic @ We Love Pets in Milton Keynes is doing a superb job in helping us look after our 4 month old Cockapoo named Sammy. Nic is supporting us with both some puppy drop in and day care packages - we trust him implicitly with Sammy.
Really happy with the level of service i have received from Nic. I have been looking for someone for some time as my dog breed has proven to be one of the most challenging breeds due to his size and power. Nic knows exactly what he is doing and has built a loving and trustful relationship with Drogo.
Nic was amazing. Super pet focused … he clearly loves pets! He checked in and walked our dog a couple of times when we were out for the day. She seemed very happy when we came back.
Martin @ On All Paws provides an excellent home boarding service for Blackie. Blackie enjoys her stays with Martin and his other clients. A far better solution than a kennel! Martin is always most helpful and understanding and I have no hesitation in recommending his business to other dog owners!
Martin is a very experienced, professional and caring person and an obvious animal lover! We went away for nearly 3 weeks and left our adopted cat in his care - the first time we had left her. She is also very timid and nervous at times due to being homeless before. She took to him straight away when he came around to meet her which was a good sign! Martin updated us after each visit via email on how she was doing and really put our mind at rest which we needed being worrying 'cat parents'! I cannot recommend Martin highly enough. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further information.
We have been using Martin and his Team at On All Paws for many years. We cannot recommend them enough. We wouldn’t feel happy leaving our Pooch with anyone else. Our Schnauzer loves her daily walks and is always happy to see one of the Team.
We have been using On All Paws for our Cocker Spaniel Amber for the last 10 years for walking and boarding. They really offer a 5* service. They have never let us down and Amber is always happy to see Martin for walks and immediately makes her self at home when boarding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Highly recommend Martin & On All Paws. Martin and his team have been walking / boarding our chocolate lab, Dexter, since he first came to us 3 and a half years ago and we couldn't find a single fault. A fantastic, and reliable service. Dexter absolutely adores Martin, and it gives us so much reassurance to know our beloved baby is well cared for and happy when we're not there.
Brilliant! Martin has been looking after my two little Beddies (Bedlington Terriers) for well over a year now – Martin’s natural affinity with dogs is clear to see by their excitement when he arrives! Introduced by a recommendation I haven’t looked back – Martin is not only caring and thoughtful with the canines but humans too – leaving daily notes on their adventures - which always makes me laugh. I cannot recommend his complete and personal service highly enough.
On all paws has been great, both for visits to our dog at home whilst we're at work and boarding whilst we've been on holiday. Our dog had an operation recently and Martin took the time to come and visit whilst we were home to ensure he understood how best to look after our dog during his visits. Would highly recommend Martin and on all paws.
Martin has walked our dogs for over 7 years and during that time he shown that he really cares about the animals in his care and treats them how you want your furry friends to be treated. Over the years Martin and team have fed our elderly cats, walked our once baby Bouvier des Flandres and then when our older Bouvier could no longer manage a long walk we devised a way that she could still pop out for a short walk and then go out with our younger dog. And then we got a miniature schnauzer and she also became a member of the dog walking pack. I am very picky who looks after our animals and I can honestly say that you won't do better than to go with On All Paws. Sadly we have moved out of the area and I really am missing the team and the daily visits. Very trustworthy folk and my dogs really love the team, and that is good enough for me.
Our two JR sisters spent 2 weeks "on holiday" with Kim, at their "home from home!" After having a sleep~over/acclimitisation previously, we were totally reassured that our girls would be well cared for, and be happy away from us. The paperwork and questionnaire we were sent, and completed in advance convinced us that their welfare was of prime importance to Kim, and Martin. Kim contacted us several times whilst we were on holiday, which put our mind at rest. Our dogs were glad to see us on our return, but reluctant to leave Kim, which speaks volumes. I would recommend All Paws to anyone considering a "puppy free" holiday, with no hesitation.
Martin and his team were great. They looked after our previous Louis like he was their own. Your furry friend is safe with them!
