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.
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
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!
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 wonderful! She took care of my cat and house while I was out of town and left and Jack the Cat very and calm and the house in perfect shape which I so appreciate. I could return home and attend to other things rather than cleaning house. I would recommend her as a sitter to anyone. She was easy to communicate with, provided updates and pics of Jack, willing to jump in and assist me as I left or returned. She has a sweet and warm personality and enjoys what she does with house sitting. Thank you Catherine!
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Summer was a very top-quality pet sitter and house sitter. She not only took excellent care of all four pets (three cats and a dog) but even achieved a very close bond with one of the cats. She went over and above the call of duty with our dog, who developed a serious skin condition while we were gone. We're so grateful that Summer was able to identify there was a problem, took the dog to the vet several times, and ended up having to apply topical medication and give pills and even keep the dog dressed in a t-shirt, which she did flawlessly. She communicated with us frequently, sending photos and updates, and the house was spotless when we returned, even cleaner than when we had left. She did an amazing job, knew how to handle any situation, always had a very upbeat and positive attitude, and we really enjoyed getting to know her right before we left and right after we returned. We would very very highly recommend Summer in all respects!
Anna was a wonderful sitter for our furry friends. My dog, Luke, bonded with her and was sad when she left. My cats would crawl under the covers and curl up with her at night. She is a true animal magnet and lover. I highly recommend Anna to anyone who wants their pets to recieve first class love while away.
Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!
Elyse was one of the best pet sitters we've ever met! Couldn't recommend her more. We hope she stays at our place again. She sent many pictures of our beloved cats throughout our absence. We returned to our cats seeming relaxed and happy as ever. She also left our apartment sparkling clean. 10/10 :)
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 have been using Pets For Life for a while now they are absolutely fantastic! Ali and Tine are very knowledgeable and have given us great service even at late notice. Our dog spends all of his holidays at Pets For Life as well as daycare and we trust them implicitly, he has come on leaps and bounds since going there. Our dog loves Ali and can’t wait for the door to open when she comes to collect him. They are a very hardworking team and it’s abundantly obvious how much they care. We highly recommend them if we could give more than 5 stars we would!
Brilliant doggy day care! We always know our dogs are safe and well looked after. They have a fantastic time and we know Ali and the team treat our dogs as if they're their own! Highly recommended
Absolutely fantastic. I have total trust in Tine and Ali. Barley loves it. When he comes home he literally goes straight to sleep. It's been so good for him to socialise and learn how to behave with other dogs in a safe environment.
We've had two of our dogs with Tine and Ali over the years, right from when they were puppies, and I can't recommend them enough. They are so caring and helpful, love dogs, and have so much knowledge - I don't know what we would have done without them!
Our dog absolutely loves coming here for daycare. He’s always so excited to go in, and thoroughly worn out when he comes home! Tine and her team are brilliant. Highly recommended ⭐️
Reception team were unbelievably kind to us supporting us through the sad journey of having a much loved pet put down. Sensitive and genuine empathy can’t fault them would trust them with all my family - furry and otherwise
Super kind people who look after out dog very well, he is always looking forward to going there! The set up is great and very secure and safe for pets.
Our dog absolutely loves it here, and I couldn't recommend the team highly enough.
Best place for your dogs to go to doggie day care
Always helpful and accommodating, I just wish I was a dog
Beautiful house and very friendly owners
Excellent service.. efficient, friendly and reliable. Happy dogs!
Kiera & Ayden are absolutely brilliant! They looked after my 2 pet Degus while I was away for a week and I couldn’t have been happier. They are lovely people, extremely professional and very knowledgeable. The love and care they show for animals is amazing. I couldn’t recommend them enough and I’ll definitely be booking with them again!
The most genuine, caring, animal-mad people you could ever wish to meet. We instantly knew we could trust Kiera & Ayden, and they made us feel like they adored our elderly cat as much as we do. Even though we just booked a single check-in they sent an text and photos to keep up updated and put us at ease. We would use The Micro Zoo in a heartbeat. Highly recommend! Thank you Kiera & Ayden.
We are so happy to have Kiara and Ayden look after our little puppy! We instantly felt how honest and trustworthy they both our, and easily showed their love for animals! I highly recommend the micro zoo to everyone!
Couldn’t recommend these enough! Only people I’d trust my pets with. So kind and you can clearly see how much they love and care for any animal they look after❤️🔥 …
Kiera and Ayden have just checked in on our rescue cat Alfie whilst we got away for a long weekend. They did an excellent job, are such lovely people, real animal lovers and very professional. I can’t recommend them enough
Kiera and Ayden took in our Bearded Dragon at short notice and we would highly recommend them. The care, knowledge and their love for animal's is outstanding. We felt bad taking our lizard home as I'm sure he had a much better time here. We have already booked him in for our next holiday. Marley also had his nails trimmed and we was kept updated as regularly as we had asked for. Thank you so much Kiera and Ayden, Marley is looking forward to his next holiday.
Review from Maria Knight: Kiera and Ayden are professional, knowledgable and passionate about animals and what they do. They checked daily, grooming and feeding my three cats while I was on holiday. I totally recommend them - just fabulous.
Great people and real animal lovers, they have taken care of our old boy (Darwin the rat) with the utmost care and attention while we're on holiday. I can't recommend them enough!!!
This sounds so good
I’ve been to this incredible business today to refresh their Pet First Aid …… omg as a very experienced instructor I can say this place has to be one of the best I’ve ever been to!! The team without exception show such an amazing love towards dogs and the organization is second to none . If need doggy day care …… 5/5
Obi ADORES his days at Bruce’s! From the moment his bus driver picks him up to the moment he gets home, tired and happy, I know he’s having the best time with lovely humans and his doggy friends. Highly recommend!
Marley loves Bruce’s doggie day care, he waits for Isabel at the window and goes nuts when he sees her pull up in the bus to collect him. He has so much fun when he’s there that he curls up for a cuddly sleep with me when he gets home. The staff there are amazing and I would highly recommend it, especially at this time when our dogs really need the interaction and socialising. He makes lots of new doggy friends and plays interactive games, I know he just loves going. They also send you regular photos to show you how your dog is doing and keep you updated.
My Golden retriever attended Bruce's and has loved every moment. He is always excited to see his driver, he loves getting in the van every week. They team are excellent, they arrange all the dogs according to temperament so I know that he's having fun in a safe environment. I'm kept well informed, I love getting photos of his time in day care. The whole process has been so easy. From my initial visit, to arranging his hours/transportation to invoices. Bruce's is a very well organised, professional organisation. I thoroughly recommend Bruce's Doggy Daycare!
My dogs have really enjoyed their time at Bruce’s Tunbridge Wells. The staff are very caring and enthusiastic. Unfortunately i mo-longer require this service but would highly recommend to dog owners looking for day care where you pick up a happy but tired dig
Lovely community feel, where our dog has certainly thrived
Bruce's DDC provides a completely secure environment for my Beagle to run free, off lead. I get photos of her on her mornings there, which I genuinely appreciate. She seems to have a different activity when she goes from "What's in the box?" scent games to climbing over obstacles to simply playing with other dogs. She is happy and alert when we arrive and has clearly had a busy morning as she sleeps most of the afternoon when she gets home. It is great to give her time to socialise, engage her brain and to be off lead. Due to Covid I haven't really had the chance to have a proper conversation with the people who take care of her, but they all seem very nice in the brief hand over time. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
Murphy absolutely adores his days at Bruce’s Tunbridge Wells! The team at Bruce’s are absolutely wonderful, great communication and extremely friendly accommodating service always. From puppy training classes with Georgina at 3 months old, joining day care at 4 months old and now nearly 11 months Murphy is definitely a Bruce’s pup through and through! Couldn’t recommend enough!
There is poor communication between staff which leads to the customers time being wasted. They have no issue cancelling last minute. The staff aren’t particularly friendly or apologetic for their shortfalls. The play doesn’t look to be worth the price. There is a strong feeling that profit is the priority and customers/dogs are a necessary evil to meet this. I made enquiry online and was contacted the following day to discuss my dogs breed. I was transparent about my dogs breed and they invited me to a taster session to see if it would be a fit. I didn’t attend and was called to explain why and rebook. I rebooked. In the week before the second session, I received a follow up email and a phone call to confirm my attendance. On attending I was told my dogs breed was unsuitable and he wouldn’t be admitted. Vile treatment and extremely annoying and time wasting. Don’t recommend.
Bruce’s Tunbridge Wells is amazing! Ruby joined when she was a young and scared puppy and they were incredibly caring and took the time to help her settle. The staff are incredible with Ruby and I can fully trust them. They always have fun activities for the dogs which helps with enrichment and play - Ruby always comes homes exhausted after a fun day. I honestly can’t recommend them enough
Mazzie has been fantastic with our dogs and always responds quickly to enquiries for scheduling walks. We have no concerns that our girls are happy to see her and it is great to know they are getting walkies when we are not around. Mazzie also is always happy to sort out feeding if needed and anything else we might ask. Great service and so pleased we found Poppy and Pals. Thoroughly recommended.
Mazzie was a fabulous lady to look after my timid and shy Beaker. She really got to know her and her growl really well and definitely understood Beaker and her weird ways. Poppy and pals is a fantastic pet care service and I will highly recommend them and will be using them again.
Our first time using a cat sitter and I was really happy with the service. I got a daily update which was lovely and I'll definitely use Poppy and Pals again. Thanks!
Poppy and Pals are amazing. They looked after Hamish while we were away and he has been thoroughly spoiled. Mazzie spent time getting to know him and kept us up-to-date with photos - some really great ones! so we had complete peace of mind while we were away. We are very grateful for the care given to him (all 3 of us!) and will definitely use them again :)
Highly recommended 👌Mazzie is reliable and trustworthy so we felt very reassured that our little girl would be looked after in her own home ... without the stress of a cattery. We were kept up to date with photos (these great photos were taken by Mazzie 🥰) and sent little reports whilst we were away. Will definitely ask Poppy&Pals again when we need someone to take care of Sookie 💕
Excellent! Our dog Bea was in fabulous hands, whilst we were on holiday. Great communication and always a cute photo to keep us up to date and worry free!
I have had our labs walked by this company for years. They are brilliant trust worthy and love the dogs in thier care as they were Thier own. I would not hesitate to recommend. All our hairy guys have loved them and so look forward to going out with them.
Where do I even start! The Poppy and Pals team are wonderful, very reliable, kind and caring. They have walked our super crazy dog Odie since he was a puppy and that is no easy task. The team have also recently welcomed our latest addition to the family Molly for walks whilst we are at work. Mazzie is really great and I really can’t recommend the team enough.
We have used Poppy and Pals for the last 18 months have found them to be brilliant. They have treated our dog Babs with so much love and care, it’s been reassuring to know she was so well looked after on her walks while we were working. Overall an excellent and reliable service, we highly recommend Poppy and Pals.
Highly recommended, Mazzie is a lovely lady who look after for our 3 cats. She kept us up to date with photos and even video how our lovely boy Titu is playing with her whilst we were away. We will definitely ask her again when we are going away. Thank you Mazzie 😘
I could not recommend Karen at the Gate House Guinea Pig Hotel and Grooming enough. Karen looked after our tortoise for a few days whilst we went away and our tortoise had a lovely holiday. Karen is very knowledgeable, caring and has great communication - I felt comfortable in the knowledge that our pet was in very safe hands, especially if they became unwell etc. Karen was very helpful with our tortoises needs and was very accommodating. The price for the service is also very reasonable considering all the work Karen does. I would 100% recommend this service and would use again in the future.
I can highly recommend Karen who has recently looked after my 3 rabbits. karen has so much experience with small furries and takes so much care to ensure all the animals are happy and comfortable. I went away knowing that if one of my rabbits became unwell she would do what is needed and I trust her judgment completely. Will definitely use Karen again as I could really relax and enjoy my holiday knowing my rabbits were safe and happy.
Fabulous. Karen is knowledgeable and caring. She has a lovely set up and really took care of my guinea pigs as if they were her own. It's brilliant knowing you can trust the person you are leaving your little furries with and I will definitely be using her again. Can't thank her enough.
My rabbit stayed here last summer for a week whilst we were on holiday. From start to finish the service was incredible, we had photos and daily updates so we could see how he settled and how much fun he was having and he didn't even seem to happy to be home! Karen clearly loves all the animals as her own and a brilliant price too! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for small animal boarding!
Karen is so flexible, helpful and efficient. She takes amazing care of our guinea pig, and she’s also been great when he’s had medicine, or has been under the weather. Would highly recommend!
Karen is amazing! She always treats our piggies like superstars and gives them the most wonderful treatment during their grooming sessions with her. We are looking forward to being able to board our pets with her during the upcoming holidays too. She is very trustworthy and we highly recommend her.
Karen is a wonderful find for us. Our Piggys' second stay and they were hopping at drop off. They'll no doubt be chubbier at pick up
Karen is lovely and I would highly recommend the Guinea pig hotel. She treats our Piggy like her own and it is truly like our Piggy is having a lovely holiday too when we go away.
This place is amazing! We used them for our beloved tortoise, Sheldon. I felt completely comfortable leaving him with them. They even gave him a gift when I went to pick him up. 100% recommended.
I cannot recommend this service highly enough. Karen is amazing with all animals and cannot do enough for them. She is communicative and helpful, and super friendly. The service is excellent value too.
