Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
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.

Jordan & Nataki
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
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!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
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
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 & Thomas
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
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!

Courtenay
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
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 & Susan
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.

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!! :)

Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
Leslie
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Care and compassion for my dogs was at the top of the list of John's attributes. He was the first sitter I have used through zeewoi that was close enough to come meet the dogs before the sit. John not only came for an initial meet and greet, but he made time to meet the pups a second time prior to my departure to better familiarize himself with both the dogs and my home. Having put the fear of God in him about Penny's reactivity (I might have been a bit over the top, but better more attentive than less!), he was cautious with her in the beginning. Later in the sit, they trooped off to the beach on multiple occasions - all good! My 10-yr-old was on some meds for a serious battle with arthritis, and John managed Cooper's needs beautifully. John even made a call and a trip to the vet to re-up Coop's prescription when it was clear he needed to continue the protocol. I received daily updates by text, including photos and video; communication is hugely important to me. I feel blessed to have had John care for my fur-babies.

They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.

Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.

Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.
Christopher
As ever, Charlie was the perfect dog/house sitter - took loving care of our dog and looked after the house and garden as if they were her own; all returned in immaculate conditon!

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.

You could not ask for better house and pet sitters than Ken and Jane! Before the sit: Communicating with Ken and Jane prior to our scheduled week went smoothly. They were proactive about planning. They came out to the house prior to the sit and spent a couple of hours going over things about the house, meeting the pets, and getting familiar and comfortable with everything. They were delightful people to meet; I was wishing for a couple of days to just hang out and play tourist with them! During the sit: Ken and Jane sent me daily updates and photos of their outings with my pups and with their interactions with my kitties. I appreciated how they chose the sit partly because of their love of exploring rural areas, because that's what I have here! They were perfectly suited to my home and pets. Ken absolutely loves cats and is an intuitive and experienced kitty-handler. Jane really bonded with one of my kitties; both of them made great progress with all three of my cats, each of which is pretty shy at first, and one can be a real problem child. They worked very hard to give love to each pet and ensure that each felt calm, happy, and cared for. They spend tons of time outdoors with my border collie/retrievers. The dogs had daily "spa time" after walks and outdoor playtime, having their long fur brushed on my front porch (which the dogs love!). They sent me happy photos every day. If anything came up, they just handled it. They really seemed to enjoy their adventures and the pets each day, which made my time away that much more enjoyable. After the sit: I was thankful to have some time with Ken and Jane when I returned from my trip. All the pets were calm, happy, and healthy when I got home. Ken and Jane had left me a detailed note about that last day to make re-entry easy. They sweetly left a thank you note and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table also (a very sweet and unexpected surprise!). They seemed quite sad to leave my "kids;" Jane left with tears in her eyes, saying goodbye to my dogs. We've kept in touch since the sit. My whole house really misses them. Oh, and the house was immaculate and plants all watered (inside and out) when I got home! If you're looking for kind, competent, caring, organized and responsible people to care for your home and pets, invite Ken and Jane!

My troublesome terrier, Eddie, has been going to Waggy since January 2023. It's such a relief to know he is happy, safe, and having fun while I'm at work. He The staff are wonderful and treat every dog as an individual, respecting their boundaries. They offer a pick up and drop off service. I use the drop off service and it's great as I don't drive and would have to change my work hours to be able to pick him up myself via the bus. They also offer a grooming service on-site which is also very handy. Eddie loves going, he sings an 'arrival song' (very loudly) as soon as we get through the door. I honestly cannot praise the staff enough. Never mind 5 stars, they deserve 500!
Took my cockerpoo here for a groom after a traumatic groom elsewhere due to severe matting. Anna was amazing from start to finish- we communicated on text messaging and she answered my questions and had such a positive, calming manner, and was more than willing to help. On the day of the groom she suggested I bring in dog treats, favourite toys etc to make the experience as easy as possible for my dog. The groom is amazing, and I can’t thank Anna and the team enough for understanding our situation and really helping my dog to feel at ease. We won’t be going anywhere else
Our Yorkshire Terrier Alfie spent two days at the Waggy Dog Crèche whilst we visited York on a short holiday. We wanted to take our dog away with us and Vanessa and her team were wonderful. He clearly enjoyed his days there and I highly recommend the Waggy Dog Crèche and doggy day care in general to help your dog socialise whilst having a good time in a safe environment.
Recommend. Our labrador Timmy goes for 1 day a week and absolutely loves it ❤. Has really gained in confidence with socialising with so many other dogs Rushes to get in and always happy and tired when we pick him up. Lovely team of people and completely trust them to take good care of our dog 🐕
Visiting the area while on holiday from Scotland. Contacted the waggy dog creche a good few weeks ago to see if they could help by having our 2 1/2 year old labrador for a day while we visited the non dog friendly sights in York. We got a quick response advising us of the criteria, documentation and vaccines etc that our dog needed to fulfil before he could be accepted even for a day. Vanessa was super hopeful and accommodating at every step. Fergus our labrador was literally smiling when we picked him up and had clearly enjoyed his day. I would thoroughly recommend The Waggy Dog Creche and we will wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
My pup had a lovely time at the Waggy Dog Crèche - she didn’t want to come home! The team were really helpful, friendly and put my mind at ease with a couple of pupdates. I would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Thank you!!
Leave my two little ones here a couple of times a week and they always come home happy and tired 🙂 Everyone working here is really friendly and always happy to see you. I would definitely recommend. …
Just back from holiday to York with our dog Buddy. Waggy Dog Creche is an excellent facility with great staff who ensured Buddy had great fun the days we visited Jorvik and York Dungeon. They are very centrally located and are 2minutes away from Grimston Park and ride. If you plan to use Waggy Tails for your holiday toYork make sure to contact them a couple of months before your visit so they can complete the necessary screening documents so your dog can visit
We have our rather grumpy dog groomed here and the staff look after him and do a fantastic job.
I have taken my shih tzu for grooming for 3 years and she loves it. So keep going.thank you for the help.

Thank You Top Dog Luxury Boarding Kennels ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend as always. My 3 x Miniature Dachshunds have just spent a week there whilst i have just had a much needed week away after a not so good 7 months. I was contacted during this week with lots of videos of my 3 playing with the girls and looking very happy. It put my mind at ease even though i already knew they would get the best care. My oldest Dachshund is now Diabetic & also has Cushings disease. It wasn't a problem for trained staff to administer his medication twice daily. Lovely clean environment. Excellent staff Great communication I was able to take my Dachshunds to the room they was allocated and put their things just how they like them at home. Thank You very much to you Martin & your amazing staff.
We have recently had a wonderful experience using Top Dog Kennels for the first time for our precious (and rather needy!) boxers Reggie & Lottie. We were extremely nervous so being able to visit with them prior to our stay was a godsend- as we’re all the wonderful videos of the dogs having a great holiday of their own! Reggie is very nervous and has not done well in kennels before - but this is different. The team at Top Dog were patient and kind and looked after him so well; we really felt they knew our dogs- and it was kisses all round for them from Lottie before we left for home! We cannot thankyou enough or recommend more. 👏🐾🐾
It's all in the name! My little dogs, Bow and Billie has visited this holiday home twice now. The second visit was for 19 days whilst I was away traveling. Every day I received a video of there walks and even had a video of them singing happy birthday to one of my pooches. I can completely trust this kennel and the girls are great with the doggies. Super clean, tidy and a very nice enviroment. Nothing is too much and the communication is top notch.
We've just used Top Dogs for the first time for our Cocker Spaniel, Monty. This was the first time Monty had stayed away from home so were a little nervous but as soon as we met Martin and his team we knew Monty would be really well cared for and fit in well. When we arrived the team were kind and attentive and helped us settle Monty into his temporary new home. Whilst away we received fabulous videos and photos showing Monty having lots of fun on his walks and chasing his beloved ball. We cannot thank Martin and his team enough for the wonderful care they provided and have already made another booking for next year.
Our boys had an amazing time at Top Dog Kennels! Throughout their stay I had regular updates on how they were getting on, including some beautiful pictures taken by Katie and Darcy! Will definitely use them next time we want to go away. The dogs are so well looked after, all home comforts including beds, usual food and toys go with them so it’s like a home from home. Very impressed! Their attention to detail and devotion to the service makes them the best hands to leave your loved pooches in.
This is such an amazing place! We’ve just picked up our 3 dogs from their long weekend staying at Top Dog for the first time. Two of the dogs - aged 7 and 4 - have never been to kennels before and we were really worried about leaving them but our concerns were totally unfounded. From the moment I booked them in with Martin on the telephone to the very thorough check in process with the wonderful Katy we felt totally reassured. On the photos they sent us our dogs looked relaxed and happy which made us relaxed and happy. Katy and Darcy are angels - thank you so much to you both - we really appreciate all your kindness, thoughtfulness and the love you showed our dogs, and Martin is a total star. Thank you so much - we will be seeing you next year!
Just collected our 5 spaniels from their 3rd visit to Top dog. Absolutely thrilled as always with the care they have received. Martin, Lesley and the team treated them just as they are at home and they have returned happy and healthy. We received numerous videos during our time away, showing just how much fun they were having. It isn’t easy to find somewhere to safely accommodate 5 dogs at once but here they are wonderfully cared for and are all able to stay in the same room, the kennels themselves being extremely roomy and a perfect home from home. Many thanks again to you all- we highly recommend :). Now completed our 4th visit- yet again our 5 dogs came home happy and healthy - thank you to Martin, Lesley and the team for taking such good care of our fur babies and for administering necessary medications . Thank you also for the lovely videos showing them enjoying the fabulous paddock . We shall see you again next year 🤗. Jane & John Houseman.
Beautiful place and wonderful team! My dog (Trufa) stayed here for two months, and Martin and the team took so good care of her. They are all so caring and supportive. Many thanks to Katy, Darcy, Lydia and Emma for sending regular pictures and lovely edited videos of Trufa. Special thanks to Katy for spending much of her days with my dog. She even brought her back in her car in her day off so I’m extremely thankful for all the support they gave us. Definitely recommend this place, it is a bit far away but it is worth the travel, as you can be certain that your dog will be in good hands. Also, they have plenty of space for dogs to explore and run. I’m sure we’ll come back! Many thanks!
A fabulous place for dogs to stay - the best I have ever come across! This really is a home from home and our two dogs, Bill & Tess were extremely well looked after. Martin is friendly, caring & extremely knowledgeable about dogs and what they need. You know on first meeting him that your dogs are in safe hands. Many thanks to Katy, Darcy & Charley for their hard work & kindness & for all the great photos & videos of Bill & Tess that they sent regularly while we were away. Looking forward to seeing you all again very soon!
I planned a trip , short notice and booked a dog hotel in the South of York for our Larger than life Dog , Bruno. We decided to go view the property the night before and were horrified. It looked like a run down SPCA. Bruno was found at the SPCA. We panicked and started to frantically google new places. We then came across Top Dog. I gave Martin a call who went out of his way to help us on very short notice. The facility is fantastic. The staff were wonderful. We received many updates on Bruno and how he was doing. I highly recommend Martin and Top Dog. We will definitely be back. They might be a little more expensive but you get what you pay for.

I am extremely pleased with the service that Nigel and Emma offer. We have a lively young terrier and a nervous senior cat. At the preliminary visit, we were very impressed by N and E's professionalism and understanding of the needs of both pets. We have used their service many times since and have found them to be both flexible and reliable. I am very confident leaving both pets in their care. and caring am confident leaving both in their care.
Nigel and Emma are very reliable and ensure my dog Xena has a great walk. Xena is always very excited to see them which only reaffirms that she has a great bond with them. They are also very trustworthy and lovely people to deal with. They will always try and accommodate for last minute requests too which really helps us out. I would definitely recommend their services to others.
Nigel and Emma have been walking our dogs for many years since they took over Petpals York. They have also looked after our cats when we’ve been away. They have always been professional and utterly trustworthy. They have been flexible to accommodate ‘doggie quirks’ and adjusted their routine for exercise when any of the dogs has been unwell or injured. They are highly recommended.
Nigel and Emma have always been wonderful with our Cat, Remus. We use Petpals to look after our cat when we are away from home. They are great with him, reliable, flexible, great value and trustworthy. They also send us pictures of how Remus is getting on via Whatsapp which we love! Far less stressful for the cat than a cattery, and great value.
Although I’ve not needed to use their services during the pandemic, it has been lovely seeing the happy posts from Petpals as they’ve continued to provide support for some very content looking cats and dogs. Having used Petpals many times in the past for my cats, I will certainly be calling them again as soon as I can travel again. I’m a bit disorganised, but Nigel and Emma have always responded straight away and helped me out with my last minute bookings. Thanks to you both, and stay safe.
Petpals York have been walking our 8 year old Boxer since he was a young lad! They are very compassionate and professional and our family highly recommend them. Our doggie was poorly a couple of years ago and Nigel and Emma were very supportive and adjusted to our needs at that time. We can't thank them enough for loving our dog as much as we do.
We have used Nigel and Emma for the last three years, whenever we have gone away for more than a night or two, to look after our cat. They are professional, attentive, caring, and always keep us updated throughout. We have never had any issues, and will continue to use them as long as we need a cat-sitter. Would highly recommend their service!
Petpals is fantastic! Our cats got very stressed when we used to take them to a cattery. Now it's "business as usual" for the cats and we can go away knowing they are being very well looked after. It's extremely easy too - all we do is send and email and pay! We can't recommend Petpals enough.
excellent service. Emma and Nigel are so dependable and clearly care about the work they do. I have no hestation in highly recommending them for all your dog walking needs.
Nigel and Emma are brilliant - highly recommended due to their professionalism and fair prices. We'll be using their services to look after our cats Frank and Brian for some time to come I would imagine!

We’ve used Emma’s services (cat sitting) a couple of times now. Emma is professional, kind, caring and understanding. The price range is amazing too. Although our cat isn’t the most sociable cat, Emma took/takes the time to get to know her and understand her needs. Both my partner and I would recommend Emma in a heartbeat. It takes a lot for us to trust someone to come into our home and look after our pet. However, we never ever had any worries with Emma. Emma kept us updated throughout and her caring nature really showed
Emma came highly recommended when i was looking for help with feeding my 2 cats and fish whilst away on business. She's reliable, dependable and organised. I would recommend her to anyone that has a pet sitting need. She has thought of absolutely everything! I trusted her to be in my home and around my animals and she didn't disappoint! I will definitely do business with her again! Thanks Emma :)
Emma has been walking our dog since we got him 3 years ago. She’s reliable, friendly and clearly loves her job. I know that when I’m at work, our dog is getting the exercise and attention that we’d give him ourselves. Brilliant service!
I would recommend A Dog's Best Friend to anyone. I have every confidence in Emma. My dogs Paisley and Bella are always very excited to see her and I have peace of mind knowing they are happy and well looked after whilst in her care.
Emma and Aimee have both looked after my fur ball Bob and I cant thank them enough for the care they have given him.. If you are looking for a dog walker or dog sitter, look no further
Emma is great!

My little Urchin stayed here for just over 2 weeks and was so well looked after the whole time. The daily updates and 24/7 live-stream provided much needed reassurance to help me enjoy my holiday. I wouldn't have wanted her to be looked after anywhere else. I would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking for hedgehog care, he not only meets their specialised needs but also went above and beyond and truly seemed to care about her which really helped ease my concerns.
Pepper stayed for 6 nights while I went on holiday and was extremely well looked after which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Anyone with an African Pygmy will know they have specialist needs compared to other pets and Yorkshire Hedgehog Pet Sitters possess a wealth of experience and have all the accommodation needed to keep your hedgehog warm and stimulated throughout their stay. The daily health check reports, camera feed (both live and with playback through the night) and excellent communication were the cherry on the cake, so I thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere for hedgehog boarding!
My hedgehog Pixie was boarded for 13 nights and I can honestly say I couldn't have asked for a better place for her to stay. Josh was just amazing, giving us daily feedback on how she was doing and what she'd been up to, plus gorgeous photographs and videos. I felt she was really cared for and looked really happy whilst in their care. The fact that I could view her vivarium via video link was just an added bonus and totally put my mind at ease due to it being the first time I'd ever left her. The service provided was outstanding and I would highly recommend them. I will definitely be bringing Pixie back! Thank you so much.
Nell stayed with Yorkshire Hedgehog Pet Sitters over Christmas and they were amazing! Friendly, knowledgeable and quick to respond - I felt relieved knowing she was in such safe hands. We got daily health reports and could also watch her on a 24 hour videolink which was brilliant. We'll definitely be bringing her back for our next holiday!
AMAZING hedgie sitters! Very professional, and looked after my Strawberry as if he was his own. Had peace of mind while travelling for almost 2 weeks as I got daily updates as to how Strawberry was doing, lots of cute snaps of him everyday, plus I was able to watch him on a special Twitch camera at anytime during the day and at night when he was active. Truly brilliant. Can't recommend enough!!!
I wouldn’t leave Apricot with anyone else. They cared for my Apricot like she was their own hedgehog 🦔 With this service you get quick replies, constant updates and can watch your hog 24/7. They are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and reliable. I 100% recommend them!
My Louis stayed at The Yorkshire Hedgehog Pet Sitters for two weeks whilst I was away on Holiday. To say he got the best care would be an understatement. I received daily health checks, photos, a 24 hr live stream and communication from Josh. Louis was looked after like family and I couldn’t recommend this place higher. Knowing that Josh knows so much about hedgehogs compared to other ‘exotic pet sitters’ means I know I have nothing to worry about when I’m away. I’m so so pleased somewhere like this exists and it is an absolute bargain considering everything that’s done (washing, health checks, nail trimming, bonding time, live treats, daily updates). Thanks again Josh!!!🦔😊
I left my hedgehog at Yorkshire Hedgehog Pet Sitters for two weeks while we left the country on holiday and was astonished at just how high quality his care was! Every day I received photos and a health report. I also had access to a continuous livestream of his activities, which I could rewind and rewatch whenever I wanted. Between the daily treats, direct handling, and quality cage facilities, you won't find a better place for your hedgehog to stay. We will absolutely be using this brilliant service again.
My hedgehog Bear has returned from a few nights stay with YHPS and all I can say is that they were just brilliant with him! I’ve never left him with someone before but Josh & Co were reassuring from the moment I made contact. When Bear was staying with them I had access to his camera 24/7. Every morning I received a health report and information about how he was settling in, what he was eating etc I also got pictures/videos sent to me daily. I’m so pleased I used them and would not hesitate to use them again or recommend to fellow hoggie owners. Thank you once again for taking care of my boy 🦔💙
Excellent service and top-notch peace of mind while I was away. My little guy was so spoiled and well taken care of. The live feed was a fantastic way for me to keep tabs on my Maui to ensure he was comfortable in his surroundings. I will definitely be leaving my hedgehogs with Yorkshire Hedgehog Pet Sitters again.

My 2 cats stayed over the Christmas break and I would definitely recommend this place. Alyse is experienced at what she does and it really meant a lot knowing they were in such good hands. The surroundings are green and leafy; the facilities are quiet and clean with plenty of views to interest the cats. It made us feel confident knowing our pets were safe and secure while we were away.
We’re very pleased to have found Alyse and this cattery! Conveniently located in York, provides a true 5 star service. We have been impressed by their professionalism and meticulosity. Our cat is rather anxious, but we felt reassured by their approach and Alyse taking the time to listen to our concerns. Our cat’s first stay has definitely been enjoyable, he seemed happy and relaxed when we took him back home. He has his ways of telling us when he’s not been happy; we have had the experience in the past when he needed a long time to ‘recover’ after boarding in a cattery. Not this time though. We will most certainly return. 😼
Couldn't recommend this place enough. Our cat Freddie is always well looked after and Alyse will go out of her way to make room for him if the cattery is busy. We also appreciate the discounted rates and free upgrades for being returning customers. We can go away with peace of mind knowing our pet is taken care of 👍🏻 …
It’s difficult finding somewhere you trust with your dog, but these really are the best kennels. My dog is always so well looked after and always so happy. They get one on one attention which is great as my dog sometimes struggles with other dogs. The girls are all so amazing and Aylese is unbelievable with all the animals. They are so clean and they have their own kennel too and some are even heated on the floors! I love the photo updates on line too always nice to see, I also used them over Xmas and they sent me Xmas day pics! And she even got a present! 100% would use them and will keep using them! 💗💕
We have been using this cattery regularly for over 10 years and have recommended it to friends and family who have also been happy with the service. The owner is always very accommodating to our cat's needs. You can tell that she is a cat lover and understands how fussy some cats (and owners!) can be and always puts our minds at rest. Our old cat used to need medication and was very timid and they always cared really well for her. On our most recent visit in Sept 2021, I was delighted to see the upgrades that had been made to the cattery. New, larger catio apartments have been created which Alyse took the time to show me around. The care and attention she has put into these was impressive, she really has thought of everything. We highly recommend this cattery.
Reliable, friendly and very accommodating Like many pet owners, I expect my pets to be looked after with as much love, care and attention as I would give them at home myself. Boarding my cat, Luna at the Red House really is home from home for her! The service and staff are genuine and always happy to accommodate any kind of special requests (which is perfect for worried owners like myself!). She always comes back happy, and I feel very comfortable boarding her here as I know she is safe, well-fed and watered, warm and comfortable and most importantly, happy! I was so pleased with the quality of service that I applied for a job at the Red House; after working here for almost 6 months, it is clear that all cleaning and preparation is thorough and there is a genuine love for all the animals boarding! Would definitely recommend this place for all, especially worried or fussy owners! Fantastic, reliable company.
We have used the Red House on a number of occasions for our old dog who will be 15 this year. She always comes home happy and relaxed and even seems pleased to be there when we arrive! They have always been flexible when needed and the girls always greet our dog as though she’s an old friend which is lovely considering how nervous she can be, it makes a big difference. The kennels themselves are clean and well maintained and I’d have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and family.
I can't recommend this cattery enough. Have used this cattery two years running over Christmas and my cat always comes home looking well and settles quickly. Alyse is very friendly and it's clear that the cattery is spotless and that my cat has been very well looked after. Alyse also posts photos online if you like to put your mind at rest that your pet is being well cared for. Thank you Alyse! Thank you Alyse
Excellent as always. I think we've left our dogs with the Red House on at least 15 separate occasions. I can honestly say we've never had a single issue. The staff are very friendly and caring towards the dogs. The location is easy to get to, close to York, and yet very tranquil. Some time ago the daughter of a family friend worked there and if there was anything out of order it would have been picked up. There wasn't. The set up is solid. What's not to like? So seeing some bad reviews pop up got me wondering the lengths people will go to tear an excellent long running family business down. Not to mention getting their mates who have never been to the kennels to leave a review as well. I seem to recall a similar thing happen to another boarding kennels in York. The Red House Kennels has always been great for our dogs. It's run by genuine animal lovers who tend to each animal if it were their own. Don't just take my word for it (or any other for that matter). Come and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed. Unless your mate tells you to be disappointed. But why lie? The place is great. And our dogs are always happy when we approach it, when they see the staff, and during their stay. 5 stars is not enough.
We have left our dog Nuts and cat Biscuit here at least twice a year for the last 8 years and this year they were joined by their new younger doggy brother Archie. We wouldn't entrust any other establishment with our furry children!! You know your pets and can tell when they are happy and unhappy , relaxed, stressed or upset. All our pets without fail are happy and relaxed and look extremely healthy after being left for their holidays at Red House. Our dog Nuts strains on his lead with excitement to greet Lucy when we arrive for the start of his holidays at Red House, a sure sign that he is happy to return. We love that we can go away on our holidays safe in the knowledge that our pets are enjoying theirs! Thank you to Alyse and team for consistently providing such a safe and loving haven for our pets!!

First stay for this dog, she seemed happy and calm. Clean. Caring, responsible owners.
Dogs loved it and came back after a weekend away to 2 very happy dogs
Travelled to Derwent kennels today 18/06/20 with our little man Bear the Jack Russel for his very first haircut. He has a few issues bless but he was looked after fabulously, his hair cut was great, we will definitely be going back. Thank you so much
We ( Mike & Lesley Lambert) first used the kennels around late 2015. We have 2 dogs and had been having a lot of health issues after pick up when using a DIFFERENT kennel. So understandably we were very concerned about leaving them again. Initially we tried a short visit, no issues, a longer one, no issues, then a 2 week stay in July 2017, again no issues. Our dogs have been returned to us happy and healthy ON ALL OCCASIONS. We are totally confident that our animals are being fed correctly, allowed to play in the paddock daily and generally being well looked after and catered for here. WE WOULD ABSOLUTELY, WITHOUT RESERVATION, RECOMMEND DERWENT KENNELS.
Wouldn’t go anywhere else !!
A fantastic place for my beagle
Just awesome

My Hamster Gus Gus was regularly handled and such well cared for will definitely use Charlotte again whenever we go away! We were consistently updated with pictures, so happy with her services!
Charlotte is amazing at looking after our little piggies, we've never had to worry about them whilst they've been in her care. We've used Charlotte's services a few times now and can't fault her. We love getting regular updates and pictures of our piggies and will continue to use Pippin Pet Boarding for the foreseeable future.
Our rabbit, Puddles, has stayed with Charlotte three times. She is always very well cared for and we receive regular updates. We are always very happy with Pippin holidays. Charlotte clearly loves animals.
My bunnies Nibbles and Isabelle have stayed at Pippin many times, most recently in the new luxury lodge which is a whole summer house and garden for them to roam freely. But it is the care and love that they receive from Charlotte who apart from being highly experienced in small pet care obviously adores animals which makes it more than just a business. I wouldn’t send my beloved rabbits anywhere else. Prices are more than fair for the level of service and you will get regular lovely photos and updates. Highly recommended in every way.
I would highly recommend Pippin Pet Boarding. Charlotte has been looking after our hamsters for the past few years now and we have always received an excellent service. Charlotte is really friendly and from the first visit we knew our hamster would be in safe hands. Charlotte always sends us photo updates throughout their stay so we can see how they are getting on which is great!
My two little Russian Dwarf hamsters, Pudding and Crumpet, have just spent 10 days with Charlotte at Pippin Pet Boarding and they had an absolutely amazing time ! They were looked after with the utmost care and attention . I received regular updates and some really cute pictures of my two girls which was sooo nice and comforting as I missed them a lot ! Charlotte was very friendly and professional , and was sooo considerate and flexible when arranging drop off and pick up times ! I highly recommend Pippin Pet Boarding for all your small animals, an all round FANTASTIC service :) :) :)
Charlotte looked after my canary "Biscuit" for two weeks and he was very happy and healthy when I returned to collect him. I was given regular updates about him throughout my holiday, including lovely photos of him free-flying around safely. Reasonably priced and reliable! Will definitely use again!!!
Milo, our hamster had a great stay, we loved our mid week update and photos. Highly recommended pet care service ! Thank You ! Summer holiday booking on its way 😁
Charlotte is always happy to look after our old bunny 🐰 and sends pictures to show how he is doing. …
Pipping Barding is just first class accommodation for small animals 🥇Charlotte is very dedicated and cares for her charges with 100% dedication my two girlie guineas Wendy & Daphne have been twice for two pretty long stays I have no hesitation at leaving them .The updates while you are away are fabulous we all know small animals can suddenly go downhill it’s something we always discuss but thankfully it’s never happened .Makes going away on holiday so much easier !
