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.

Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Janet and Bob were great to our pups and our home! They were our first sitters so we weren’t really sure what we were getting into, but they made it an awesome experience! They are coming back to stay with our dogs again in August. Definitely trust them with your fur babies!! 🐾🐶
Jasmine is a five-star sitter. She is everything you want in a sitter when you go away and leave your beloved pet and home. She is reliable, communicative, respectful, and flexible. We had no worries about our dog or home while we were away, and will be having Jasmine sit for us again soon. Our home was immaculate when we got home, and our dog was obviously well-cared-for. Can't say enough good things about this wonderful human.
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.
Veronica House sat for us for a month. She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat. Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals. They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them. When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe, she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity. She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks. This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy. A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in. Our cat was so content and well-groomed upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention, too. Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day. I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home. We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.

Used for the first time, I was so worried about my cat, that I was even communicating from abroad to check, and they were so reassuring & he was fine, got lots of attention, and became very vocal with them, which if he was anxious he would just retreat into a quiet corner, such a relief to know he was happy & looked after. I can now go away and know he's he's not miserable & sad.
What an amazing place this is with excellent friendly staff. Our elderly dog loves staying here and is always so pleased when he knows where he is. They have recently helped us out at short notice. Can't recommend them enough to anyone.
This is by far the best Kennel we have used for our 4 k9 family members. The staff are brilliant and really do care. The place is very well kept and you get a great vibe from it.
Our first visit with a view to using the kennels for our 12 month old puppy. Google maps is misleading about where it drops its location PIN, so be warned. But look for the kennel's own signs, and you'll be fine, though the undergrowth partly obscures them and needs cutting down. We were made welcome by staff and our puppy obviously felt right at home. She stayed for a couple of hours, and was reluctant to leave! We will be back!
Caring staff. All of our dogs have been happy to go there. They've been able to help in medical emergencies, too - looking after the dogs at short notice when family members have been hospitalised in a hurry.
Very friendly and professional, my dog loves all the staff. Louise has also kindly given sound advice when asked. I feel reassured that my dog will be well looked after when she is there.
Made a fab job of grooming our girl. Will definitely be returning. 😊 …
Dog came back very well groomed and very happy.
We have always been very happy with the service provided by the Kennels. Our Westie can't get in there quick enough when we arrive and has always been well and lively when we collect him. Believe me, if he was not fed adequately I would know; he would let me know in no uncertain terms being a devoted worshiper of his food. Also, on our first visit we were shown around the kennels and the set-up and routine were well explained.
My dog (aged 9) has been going since she was a pup. We have moved away from the area, but she remembers the kennels and enjoyed her stay
If you're in search of a puppy trainer who truly cares about your furry companion's well-being, look no further than Rhona from Who Let the Dogs Out!!!. I had an excellent experience working with Rhona and can confidently say that she is an exceptional trainer who goes above and beyond to ensure that your puppy receives the best possible care. From the very beginning, Rhona was incredibly warm, friendly, and easy to work with. She took the time to understand my puppy's unique personality, habits, and needs and tailored her training program accordingly. What impressed me the most about Rhona was her patience and kindness towards my puppy (and to me as a new pet owner to be honest). Rhona's training methods are highly effective, and I was amazed at how quickly my puppy responds to her training methods. She uses positive reinforcement techniques that are both and effective, and my puppy responds well to her style of teaching. I appreciated how Rhona emphasised the importance of consistency and repetition, and she provided me with practical tips and advice to help reinforce the training at home. Overall, I cannot recommend Rhona from Who Let the Dogs Out!!! highly enough. She is a fantastic puppy trainer who truly cares about the well-being of your furry friend. If you're in search of a trainer who is patient, kind, and effective, Rhona is the perfect choice. Her training programme is top-notch, and you will see a noticeable improvement in your puppy's behaviour after just a few sessions. I am so grateful for Rhona's help and expertise, and I know that my puppy and I will continue to benefit from her training sessions for years to come.
Our dog Clyde has been very well looked after by Rhona. He started in the beginning with puppy visits, Rhona was so attentive to him and he had a great time playing in the garden. He now does hour long walks and he is so happy and excited to see Rhona each day. Rhona communicates with us regularly to update us on how he's doing. Fantastic Service 🐕🦺
Over the last few months, when ill-health has restricted our dog-walking activities, Rhona has proved to be a life-saver. She has formed a strong bond with Sullie, our hyper-active Springer and they both seem to really enjoy their outings.
Rhona is an amazing Dog Walker. Our dogs love going with her each day and she’s always on time. Very flexible if required. 100 % recommend.
We have used Rhona for almost 1 year now and she has been great! We know our dog has a great time with Rhona because she never wants to come home with us when we pick her up. Rhona will also send updates throughout the day to let us know how she is getting on. 5 stars 😊😊 …
Our pup loves loves loves going to Rhona’s! She is so excited every time we drive to Rhona’s! Rhona is super caring and so so good with our pup! We trust her completely! Highly recommend!
Our puppy Rosie has come on leaps and bounds in just six training sessions with Rhona. Her experience and expertise are a joy to behold and Rosie just loved her time with her. Can't recommend highly enough.
Poppy loves her time with Rhona, is very excited when she arrives for walks, and is perfectly cared for. Highly recommended.
Always a Fantastic service from Rhona, our boy just loves his walks with her and is very well looked after
Excellent service and not expensive - used many times and would recommend highly.
Excellent transport and assistance provided by Michael for my first ever dog! He drove from Sheffield to Canterbury, stopping off at two service stations so my dog could exercise and make some mess! The car used was very smart and comfortable.
I have had the most amazing trip to pick my puppy stray up from Zante and drive all the way back to Yorkshire. My driver/courier, Norman was fantastic. The whole process went smoothly, safely and was a trip of a lifetime. They organised every last detail to ensure the dog and myself were comfortable and well looked after. Highly recommend this fantastic company. Expensive but SO well worth it. Thank you.
I travelled with my dog from Sweden to Wales. They were very professional and organised and even remembered our names when we would call. No issues with booking etc. Were given plenty of information and contacted by the driver days before which was reassuring. He arrived in a branded van and clothes which reassured me (I am a young woman) and was very professional throughout. The van was clean and well equipped for transporting my dog and we took regular breaks around every 4 hours. Well worth the money and would definitely use c four paws again. Thanks/Diolch!
We had Milo collect from London on Sunday with two cages and a carry cage and lots of toys. Milo was perfectly happy and items were in good order. Collected on time and delivered on time. Excellent service and driver was very nice. Highly recommended for animal transport. Will definitely use again if the need arises. Good job thank you
Calagran Four Paws and my driver Will were absolutely amazing at handling our cross country transport for a long distance move. Having a rather large Staffy x Old Tyme, who had sadly had to be exempted due to her size, I was even terrified to take her on the road in anything other than proper transport. And with it being such a long way I wanted a safe long distance option also for all round safety and comfort. Our needs were catered for with the upmost care and Will was absolutely amazing with my nervousness and with my lovely girls nervy nature. I couldn't have been happier and I plan to travel with them again. I can highly recommend them.
I highly recommend this company. I just endured an incredibly stressful and long importation process into Europe and finally into the UK with my 3 med/large breed dogs. CFourPaws went above and beyond to help me logistically with things they really didn't have to and was outside of their services. Provided much needed emotional support and were empathetic to my unforeseen financial costs. Really without people like Keith and Greig, I may have crumbled under the stress of it all. BIg animal lovers, BIG hearts and can't fault them. Thanks CFourPaws x
I have been bringing my dogs here for a few years now. They are always happy to come back and I love that the kennels share photos with you of your pets. The drop-off was very useful
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. In a medical emergency you were the first kennels we found after literally 100's of phone calls with spare capacity to take Casper while his mum had an emergency operation to remove a brain tumour. The 10x photo's you sent us showing him happy & thoroughly enjoying a run in the secure field were a huge relief to his dad & a massive boost to his mum's immediate recovery.
We recently used C Four Paws to transport our dog Adi from Glasgow to Heathrow for her trip home to Canada. David was a very kind and professional driver and got us to the Kennel at Heathrow on time in spite of some unavoidable traffic delays along the way. We’re back home with Adeline safe and sound and are very grateful for having used the services of your company and David for the first leg of our trip.
An absolute lifesaver when it came to transporting me and my cats from Dublin to Somerset. There was fantastic communication the entire time during the booking process and our driver Clive was incredible! They made what was a very stressful move for me and my cats, a very easy time and I cannot thank Clive and the whole team enough.
Lucy was fantastic with my two old cats, and I cannot recommend her enough. She was purrfect, and loved the daily pics and updates.
Lucy was great with my 2 cats spent time playing with them feeding and littering. She took all the stress out of leaving them and nothing was a problem. Highly recommend Lucy and cats love her
Lucy looked after our cat and she was so loving and caring and I know he enjoyed his time with her. I would strongly recommend this service.
Lucy is fantastic with my cats and nothing is ever too much trouble 💕 …
So reassuring to know my cats are being cared for by the lovely Lucy whilst I am not home.
Reliable , very caring and would highly recommend
We have had Linda as our dog walker since we got our wee Finn. Finn loves his walks with Linda she has been flexible to help us out when she can. As first time dog owners Linda's advice and support has been priceless. Would highly recommended Palmers Pooches x
I've used Linda Palmer once to walk my 3 dogs and just never got round to leaving her a review. I was very happy with the service she provided me, especially given that it was all very last minute, she went out her way and worked late to accommodate my 3 spaniels who are no easy walk. I happily award this lady and her company 5⭐ I am very disappointed, shocked in fact to see that someone has chosen to leave a malicious 1* review of Palmers Pooches Dog Walker. The reviewer/owner in question is a previous customer of my own dog walking business. I walked her dog for a short period in summer 2020. This owners' requirements for her dog are that it must be walked at lunchtime, be the only dog there, & for the walk to last no more than 10 minutes 1 day per week. This takes a fair amount of organisation as it is right between a.m. & p.m. group walks so it quickly became unsustainable for me & I ended my contract with this owner Before doing so, I approached Linda of Palmers Pooches, if she had space to take this dog on. Linda was happy to do so. This meant, despite me leaving, there would be no interruption to the service being provided to the dog. When I told this owner I would no longer be taking her dog out, I thanked her, gave my reasons for ending our contract & the recommendation to Palmers Pooches. Despite being happy with my recommendation and going forward with Palmers Pooches, I was repeatedly called by the dogs owner over the next several days & questioned as to why I had stopped &/or could no longer carry on with the dog. Was it something she had said/done? Was it something her dog had done? Did I not like her dog? I found this quite bizarre and unsettling as I had already told her the reasons and stopped answering my phone when she called. Linda from Palmers Pooches took over the dogs walks and everyone was happy for the next 2 years. Then yesterday, Linda Palmer asked if her friend could take over with the dog for a short time, due to time constraints with regard to having other dogs to walk. The owner became extremely angry and let loose with a barrage of vindictive phone calls and sms messages (which i have seen) Completely unnecessary and beyond rude behavior from a dog owner who has acted out like a petulant, spoiled child and now left an awful review of the services she'd been happy with for the previous 2 years+ A review which is peppered with personal attacks, lies and absolute here say. A review which has now been removed, doubtless because of the defamatory nature and lies therein. However, it has been replaced with another 1* dirge. Shame on you Mrs! All local dog walkers take note and beware. Edited to add content today @ 18:30
Maisie loves going out with Linda & her doggy friends , we have been with Linda for over 2 years now , Linda is always on time , helps me when ever she can if i have unexpected work commitments Maisie is out for more than her hour , Maisie & I highly recommend Linda & wouldn't be without her now . ❤️
Palmers Pooches is the highlight to our boy Ricci’s week. He loves being out with Linda and they are out for a decent time. Always updated with pics of the walks. Would recommend!
Linda has put in so much hard work and a lot of research into her business! So trust worthy and very reliable and is great with my wee dog! She always helps out the most she can, I know she will take good care of him, Murphy just loves her ❤️🐶 …
Linda is amazing with our little one, Edith is always so excited to see her then never wants to come in when she gets home, Reasonably priced, great with her pooches, reliable and just lovely
Great dog walker, Linda has been talking Lola out since she was a pup and she loves her walks and meeting all the other dogs.. Very professional service and great getting kept up to date with the pictures of her walks.
Our wee Ginny absolutely loves her walks and is treated like one of Linda’s own! Highly recommend!
Lovely girl, taking your lovely dogs, on lovely adventures. A really hard working star
