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!
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!
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!
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!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
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.
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Kimberly was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't have had a better sitter for our first experience with zeewoi. Marshmallow loved Kimberly instantly and our cats (who can be a little standoffish) opened up right away with her. She asked great questions that helped us tailor our Welcome Guide to make sure we could be good hosts. Thank you, Kimberly!
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!
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!
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!
Tracey is trustworthy and reliable, has given great care for our cockerpoo Poppy over this past 5 years, all our holidays and weekends away ,we have been able to relax knowing that Poppy is running around with other dogs and in Traceys amazing house and grounds ,she rushes in and we know she has great fun.
Our black lab Frankie has been going regularly for the past couple of years and loves it. All the dogs have their creature comforts and Frankie has his own spot on the sofa, so it is like a home from home for him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tracey and the hairy hound nanny service.
Remy thoroughly enjoys her time at Hairy Hounds. We are assured she has the best care and fun with Tracy…. Top class service, wouldn’t have any hesitation in recommending it to anyone.
Tracey looked after Lilly for us in January of this year, 2023. Lilly was still a young lady at that time & we were nervous leaving her but we need not have worried at all as she was happy & healthy on our return & we have already booked her in for her next holibobs.
Introduction today with Chico our nervous chihuahua. He took to Tracey immediately, "you must be the guardian angel to dogs". 😇 Chico played with the other dogs and had a great time. ..he didn't want to leave! We will not hesitate to book him in and have no anxiety leaving our precious boy. I guess he will miss not being there. Thank you
Freddy has had the time of his life with Tracey! Just look at the brilliant videos to see just how much fun they have. Tracey’s so chilled and so obviously loves being with these lucky dogs! The best choice we’ve ever made! Thank you SO much, Tracey! Xxxx
What a wonderful find. Tracey was so caring to my two, she made them so relaxed and at home. I know now that I can go away and not worry about them at all. She is really good at looking after their very different needs, thank you
Tracey provides an excellent service. Reasonable rates and very flexible regarding the type of care you require. I feel confident that our animals are well cared for and would highly recommend her service.
Our dogs had a great time. Very nice owner. Friendly polite and very accommodating. Would definitely use again if we are back in the area.
My two Dogs took straight to her when they first met......which is unlike Ollie... They where in no rush to come home when we collected them......they enjoyed themselves....rebooked for next year.😍😍😍😍 …
Thank you for your 5-star review which is very much appreciated. Sarah
Gary and his kennels are exceptional. He goes above and beyond care and love for the dogs and the kennels are 5 star hotels. Fully recommend his services and kennels. A good and caring organisation who put the animals and their care first. This includes meals.
Pup always returns happy and the same weight - not been the case at other kennels. The couple that run it are lovely.
Dropped our 3 dogs off the day before my wedding. My little 5 year old daughter was excited to see the kennels etc, the woman owner was very rude and abrupt with her. She simply wanted to stand next to me whilst I signed the forms (strange place etc), but the woman said "can you get your daughter out of the office please, it's not big enough..." It's a shed! Her and her husband were in there, me and my little hip height 5 yr old in the doorway! Didn't really make much difference. Anyway, that immediately put me on high alert. When we took the dogs to their kennel there were many other dogs in kennels all barking constantly. Most of them looked dirty and dishevelled, certainly didn't look happy! I very reluctantly left my 3 dogs there (mainly because I had to get to the hotel to sort wedding stuff and I knew everywhere else was booked up. I was then at the kennels by 08.30am the morning after my wedding to pick them up because I was that worried about them! Now, normally my dogs are extremely well behaved and do not pull on the lead, one of them walks to heal whenever we are out and doesn't need a lead. But when I collected them, all 3 practically pulled me off my feet to get to the car. Each kennel is just a concrete block with a metal gate. I call it Prisoner Cell Block H. Trust me, if you love your dog, don't leave them here!
I have just collected my boy from the lovely people at gatehouse kennels after our holiday. Easy drop off and pick up. Didn't look like he wanted to come home. Will definitely recommend to anyone who asks. He is so tired which tells me he's been very active as he has so much energy usually. Thank you so much. We would definitely use again.
This was the first time we have used the kennels. Our dog has often come home from previous kennels, very smelly from disinfectant and has put on weight. We picked him up and his coat was very glossy - he had not put weight on and did not smell. The owners are obviously real dog people who look after the dogs well. Thank you.
My dog was injured within half an hour of arriving, meaning she had to be taken to the vets. She had torn one of the front pads and nail completely free of the paw and subsequently we discovered she had a back injury. Her treatment cost just under £1000, she’s never fully recovered and we had to postpone travel. The owners refused to speak to me and lied about the circumstances. Be very careful leaving your pet here.
I only take Toby here Alan and Sara look after him so well and he s not easy being a tipical terrior he has regular walk s and is always happy to go and stay i would recommend the gatehouse kennels to anyone who is looking for somewhere to board they're dog
Our 2 greyhounds stayed here recently and were well and happy when we picked them up.. They were very well cared for and we would definitely board them here again. Many thanks Gatehouse Kennels
Daisy and Bonnie Beagle had a wonderful week staying here. They would like to give a 4 paw high five star review and thank Alan for taking such good care of them 🐶 …
The most friendly and safe kennels. A great place to holiday your dog while you're staying on the island.
Lianne does drop in visits for our two cats when we go on holidays. It gives us great peace of mind to know that they will be well looked after by a highly experienced pet sitter who clearly loves the animals that she works with. We always come home to two very happy cats. Highly recommend!
Lianne looked after Bobby, my gorgeous cockapoo regularly. He loved going and got excited when I said "let's go and see Aunty Lianne", and in fact wouldn't walk past the end of her drive on days when he wasn't due to be there, as he had so much fun and received lots of love and care. He went for day care, and also for full weeks when we were on holiday. He loved going, and I felt happy and relaxed knowing he was in a beautiful homely environment. 100% recommend.
We used to leave our dog with Leanne,I can say our dog loved going to see her, her care and knowledge was second to none. I was at total peace of mind when he went to her care, knowing he was in safe caring hands.
You won't find anywhere better for your pet, you won't find this level of care and attention anywhere. If you want 5 star treatment and care that is a clear mile above anywhere else bring your pet here! Lulu days thanks!
Can not thank you enough for looking after Tino for us, it's such a relief to find someone who genuinely cares about your dog's wellbeing, Tino looked like he throughly enjoyed his stay with you from the photos you sent us and he will see you again soon
Great place great food and friendly staff set in a beautiful place. Love it.
Thank you
Caroline was brilliant from start to finish.The dogs were happy and brilliantly cared for in our absence, she also put our minds at rest as it was the first time we'd ever left them. Would highly recommend. Thank you Caroline ❤️
