Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia

Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!

The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x

Sharon and Milton are two of the nicest people I've met in my life. This is my first time having a sitter fly in from out of state and it was so simple, stress-free, and didn't affect any part of me getting ready for my trip, leaving for my trip or returning from my trip. Sharon was very communicative before, during and after I returned. It just couldn't have been more wonderful! If you're considering applicants stop looking and choose Sharon and Milton. They are just delightfully wonderful wonderful people!! They go above and beyond just housesitting and pet sitting! Tidy, clean, respectful down to earth and the most kind and loving people. I do believe Milton really is a cat whisper!! They slept with my sweet babies, and even followed silly grooming instruction on one of my cats. Would have them sit for me absolutely anytime.

We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️

After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.

Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.

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.

My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Love love love DogTown !! Jamie and her team are amazing! So much attention and love is given to my toy poodle CocoBean. She loves her day care and her grooms are always perfect 😍😍. Also love the themed days at day care! Dressing up is fun, as you can see 💕 …
I’m excited to have found DogTown Grooming! My dog, Pixie, has a nail problem that makes it hard to clip her nails. Keeping them trimmed regularly is important, but our old groomer struggled with it. At DogTown, they take special care of Pixie's nails, and I can relax knowing she’s in good hands. I won’t have to file her nails myself between appointments anymore! I’m so glad to have found a place that understands Pixie's needs. If you want great pet care, DogTown Grooming is the right choice!
We have been with Dog town groomers for many years and absolutely love their service. Our 2 Spitz Simba and Nala just adore being pampered each time they are groomed and every week they are so excited to be going to doggy daycare, Interacting with other dogs is invaluable. Jamie -Lee and her team really care and this shines through in the kindness they provide to us and our furry family. The best dog groomers in town. Thank you for all you do for our puppies. Angela Sorpreso & Family.
Dogtown is an exceptional pet care facility where your four-legged family member is treated like royalty. The daycare staff's genuine passion for animals shines through in their attentive care and personalised attention to every dog. Our dog always comes home happy, well-exercised, and eager to return. They also offer professional grooming services that keep our pets looking their best. The friendly team remembers each dog by name, and the positive atmosphere makes it clear why both pets and owners love this place. Without a doubt, Dogtown is the best choice for your dog's care needs.
The team at Dogtown grooming did a wonderful job with my standard poodle. She looks amazing and she had a great time meeting everyone. Thanks again, we're very happy to have found you!
We’ve been part of the Dog Town family for quite some time now and was the best decision we ever made for our dog, Bailey. The grooming skills are excellent and the daycare facilities are fantastic and fun. The love and care given not only to Bailey but also to his human family is next level. Jamie-Lee and the team do an amazing job and would highly recommend DTG to anyone looking for a caring, wonderful experience for their dog 🥰
Dogtown is amazing! We’ve been sending our dachshund here for 3 years for daycare and he loves it so much. The girls at Dogtown are so friendly, caring and attentive and we’re so sad to be moving across town and not being able to come anymore. It’s been the highlight of our doggo’s week coming here and we can’t thank the team enough!
We love dogtown! Our Labrador’s have been attending day care weekly since they were pups and it’s their favorite day of the week. They love the staff, the stimulation and socialisation. They also sleep very well after a day at dogtown.
Dogtown Grooming is a gem that I feel so fortunate to have found 🙌🏽 I’ve tried countless dog groomers even driving 45mins each way based on a recommendation because I was so desperate. Coming across Dogtown was like finding gold, the whole team treat each pooch so preciously & I can’t even make it into the carpark without my 2 little munchkins spotting the place from the turning lane & going nuts - they get so excited & can’t get in there quick enough. The fact that you can see into the grooming area brings me additional comfort which Jaime-Lee deliberately designed for that purpose. My babies also attend Doggy Day Care there & the activities & set up are amazing, I love receiving Instagram stories or posts throughout the day & I can see how much fun they’re having. Their social media always brightens my day, even if my pooches aren’t featured. It’s beyond obvious that all the doggies are all loved & well looked after & honestly, other than my Mum, I don’t trust anyone else with them. I couldn’t be more grateful for how beautifully Jaime-Lee & the team treat my precious babies. Thank you so much girls, your love for my little terrors means the world to me & you couldn’t pay me to go elsewhere ❤️ Cate, Tassie & Millie
This is absolutely the best place to have your dogs groomed. I had two of the most difficult dogs you could imagine (I'm sure poor Jamie-Lee still has the scars to back me up!) but they always came home looking perfect but even more important, completely happy and relaxed!!! I have been to numerous groomers with my 7 dogs over the years (with absolute horror stories!), so I can definitely say this is the best place by far. Will never go anywhere else.

Kaz had helped me with my dog for a day & I know Kimi is in good hands! She doesn't take on just anyone- as she will first assess if the dog is compatible & safe around the other dogs she cares for. I personally believe this is very important! I've seen her work in our area & she is very protective & responsible of the dogs she cares for- but also gives sound correction when needed e.g when dog under care tries to jump on someone or another dog. All in all, your dogs will definitely have a fun time when out with Kaz & cared for very diligently!
I really appreciate the care given. A person who is fully focused on those under her care. She has a good presence that attracts all the lovely furry friends to her. Thank you.
It was really a great experience, excellent communication, and very nice person to deal with Thanks for taking such a good care of thunder
Have someone who really cares about your dog care for them

My two cats stayed at Sophisticat over the holiday period and were extremely well looked after. The staff were really responsive to any emails and posted photos on social media while we were away to update us. Most importantly Penny and Rudy were happy and healthy once they came home again. Definitely recommend :)
If I could give more than 5 stars here I definitely would! I recently boarded my 2 beloved Burmese boys and my daughter's kitty at Sophisticat. Couldn't have been happier. Right from the moment I came for a tour, I knew my babies would be looked after with love and care, which is obviously the most important thing when you need to board your loved pets. Danielle and her team of carers instilled me with confidence from the outset and all throughout the kitties' 3 week stay. Lots of updates and pics. Plenty of space for the cats, not what I have seen elsewhere. I knew our kitties were in good care. Special thank you to Amy who took us on our initial tour and showered our kitties with lots of love. Highly recommend and will be back!!!
For the last 2.5 years we have only boarded our cat at Sophisticat because we know he is played with, cared for, and looked after as though he was at home. We have complete confidence in the service of this cattery and has never worried about the well being or health of our cat whilst away. The staff love cats and deliver such personalized service that I believe each guest is treated like a beloved family pet. Highly recommend!!
Much better experience than previous ones. Kept my cat well and the best part was the cat came home healthy with no upset tummy. The only reason it's 4 stars is because I felt they were too lazy to share the pics/videos more often, which to me is super important while I am away.
Excellent place to leave your cat. Mine jumps out of her carry case into her enclosure when she arrives (Premium of course!) Danielle and the girls are very professional and all love cats. Mine always comes back well groomed and healthy - happy to see us but we do get the silent treatment for a while to show us that we shouldn't really go away without her!! Couldn't recommend more highly.
Thank you to Danielle and the team for making Eva’s stay so comfortable! We loved the customer service and friendliness of the Sophisticat team and would 10/10 recommend to anyone. Eva was well cared for!
My cat spent two weeks over Christmas with Sophisticat and was really well looked after. She came home in great shape and was happy which indicated she was cared for. Highly recommend.
Would not recommend. After a family member became ill I had to cancel my booking 2 days out. I understand there would not be a refund but was bluntly told I was not entitled to a credit or offered alternative dates.
My Burmese Schrodie is a regular at Sophisticat. He always comes home happy. I've been through the facility everytime I pick him up, very clean and organized.
Send our sweetheart Cera here twice and she love it! Lovely staffs and great place for our cat.
