Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
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.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Someone was smiling down on us when Kevin and Mary clicked on our very first House Sitter advert. They are straightforward, pleasant, reliable and fun. They kept in touch about their own plans when their flights were delayed. They tactfully left the house when our own cancelled flights meant we were staying a few hours longer than first planned. They sent just the right amount of photos, videos and texts of our cat while we were away! We all loved that. And on our return, oh my word, the house fairies had been to visit! They somehow managed to walk the perfect line between improving everything, without interfering at all. Clean, tidy, replenished. They asked what food we’d like on our return and boy did they deliver! Home made bean stew :-) and different things for the children. Really kind and generous. Communication was clear and also witty..! They dealt with the churn of small mammals our “somewhat independent” cat brought through the flap without complaint. They are a really nice couple, exuding a lovely American warmth and charm. It was a real pleasure, Kevin and Mary, thank you.
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!
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.
Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
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!
Kelly is truly amazing! Our Hungarian rescue Charlie, who is extremely nervous, absolutely loves going to stay with her. It is like home from home and Charlie is really happy there. I would 100% recommend Kelly for her care and professionalism.
My dog Max loves going to Kelly. As soon as he gets out of the car he runs to her front door to see her. I ring the door bell and as soon as the door is open he is off to the kitchen. Waits for her and then gets his cuddle. I would highly recommend Kelly and her rate are reasonable. I feel so comfortable to leave my dog with her, knowing he is well looked after.
Our dogs love going on holiday to Kelly’s. We feel totally at ease leaving our dogs with her, they are treated just like family. Kelly keeps us informed through photos and texts about what they are up to I wouldn’t think of putting our dogs anywhere else , when we drive away we know they are going to have a great time.
Our dog Carla had a wonderful time staying with Kelly, she (Carla) didn't want to come home. Its great to know that your pet is being well loved and cared for while you are on holiday.
I have left my Labradoodle in the capable hands of Kelly on several occasions. I know he will always be carefully and lovingly looked after, and will continue to leave him in her care whenever I am away.
Roger had a fabulous time with Kelly. A real home from home experience for him. Highly recommend Kelly and her lovely home.
I would highly recommend Kelly. Both my doggies love staying with her.
Kathrine did an outstanding job looking after Bobby my parrot. She has gone out of her way to help and she gave me regular updates with photos and videos. Thank you so much Kathrine!
Im very grateful that I found Catherine at we love pets, I have an 8 month old Fox Red Labrador who is quite demanding but Catherine regularly takes him for walks and comes up with ideas and strategies to help him improve. Highly recommend.
Catherine is amazing. Just a genuinely nice person that you instantly knew your furry family member would be safe with, cared for and loved. You could see animals immediately loved/trusted her too. She was so patient and caring with our disabled dog, updating us while we were away including pictures. She adapted the living space putting down rugs as our dog is a wobbly walker and can be unsteady off carpet. What a find she is. I cannot rate her highly enough. Thank you Catherine!
So pleased to have found Catherine at We Love Pets, Ringwood. Catherine is so reassuring and capable. My 3 year old Labrador loved her immediately and was very happy to stay. Catherine took all of the details to understand my dogs routines and likes/dislikes and offered her healthy snacks and fun games. It was my first time leaving my dog for any length of time but Catherine sent little updates with photos to me so I was able to see how my dog was getting on. I would definitely recommend Catherine and will be using the service again.
We contacted We Love Pets Ringwood and Christchurch after experiencing some challenges with our lovely but highly complex pup. Catherine has been amazing! She is supportive and understanding and has helped us find a way to ensure our boy is well looked after while allowing us to work on the same days. This in turn will allow for more "us" time as a family, so we can't thank her enough.
Catherine & her team having been looking after my puppy since he was 3 months old.we discussed my needs & she offered a very good, innovative package which was perfect for us. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting.
Catherine looked after Buddy and Arwen in her home and made daily trips to our house to make sure our cats were fed and content. Our 2 dogs had a wonderful time, it was like they had a holiday of their own. Wouldnt think of sending my dogs anywhere else.
Our cavapoo recently boarded with one of Catherine's families and their own doggy. Mark and Jo were both so lovely and welcomed Reggie into their home. I did 2 trial sleepovers with them and Reggie settled quickly with them. He had a lovely time with them while we were away. Catherine initially came to meet Reggie and was so lovely and took lots of details about Reggie and his habits and routine. Would definitely use Catherine and We Love Pets again. :)
Both of my dogs love spending time with Catherine at her home. They’re always looked after well and have lovely walks with her. I have no hesitation in recommending Catherine, I trust her completely.
Both our dogs love Catherine, who we have found to be very caring and professional and so pleased to have found her. The dogs are walked by her when needed. Catherine is always very punctual and accommodating to our needs. Our chickens have also been looked after on occasion. We highly recommend Catherine for all your pets needs.
We have used Paws and more for many years. We know Karen offers an excellent service because our dog Harvey loves her. As soon as the van pulls up he runs out eager to see her and get on board, what better proof do you need.
Karen is the most amazing person, Bella loves going to stay for the day or overnight. Karen is flexible and reliable and the care she gives the dogs is wonderful.
