Dog Sitters in Layham

We can't praise Jay and his team enough. His calm and confident approach put us and our dog at ease right from his first house visit. He clearly knows his stuff and had our every confidence that he'd put our beloved dog first whilst ensuring she still respected boundaries and didn't undo all our hard work with training. Raven, our doberman stayed with Jay for a week in June and the regular updates and videos really put our mind at ease, she had as much fun on her holiday as we had on ours, we wouldn't send her any where else.

Jay and his team took excellent care of our two cats whilst we were away for 10 days. They got so much needed attention each day and we were kept updated with videos daily. Overall an excellent experience and we wouldn't hesitate to use them the next time we go away!

We would not hesitate to recommend JAWs, Paws & Claws and will certainly be booking more visits for our cat when we go away. Being professional, organised, careful, caring and speedy at recognising our cat’s ways and needs, enabled her to be so settled. Communication with video/photo updates was top class and the reassurance of this enabled us to enjoy our holiday knowing she was in such good hands! 👏

Our pooch loved her overnight stay with Jay. She’ll be going again for sure. We feel happy and secure knowing she is well looked after.

We would 100% recommend Jaws, Paws and Claws. Jay is brilliant with our doberman, we know she's in good hands when we leave her with him 🥰 …

Home from Home is offered, and is exactly the experience my dog's enjoyed, I felt confident throughout my time away, and was impressed too by the visit to my home to see the dogs in their own environment first as well.

Terrible service, lacking professionalism.

Really friendly! Lovely garden for the dogs to play in!

We have recently returned from a family holiday and although we take our dog wherever we go on this occasion we couldn't, so leaving her was not easy especially for my girls. However, Julie made this so much easier and I'm sure our dog had as much of a holiday as we did. We had regular updates and photos which was very reassuring for my children who really missed her and it was lovely to see her playingwith the other dogs. I was also very happy to leave her knowing Julie meets for a dog walk with all potential customers to make sure they are suitable. When we next have to leave our dog behind I will most definitely use Cedar House Dog Sitting 😊

We are so pleased we have found a home from home for Rocco to stay when we’re away. Knowing he is with Julie, Pat & Moss allows us to relax fully. He is welcomed the minute he arrives, he now runs in and doesn’t even look back! Julie has a great knowledge of what dogs need and love and walkies are plentiful! She also appreciates we miss him, so sends the perfect number of photos and messages - not too many, just enough. We feel very fortunate to have found Cedar House dog sitting.

Our dog Bo was welcomed into Julie and Pats home from day one! We felt he was safe and well cared for with plenty of walks. Julie kept in contact on WhatsApp with how he was doing with photos and updates. I’m so pleased you managed to help us out last minute when our usual sitters were fully booked. Thank you!

This is the first time we have left our dog Larry at a sitters and I can't recommend Julie enough to care for your dog if you are at all anxious about. She gives lots of updates whilst away which I really appreciated and treated him as if he was her was own. It's definitely a home from home experience which is what we were looking for and judging by how tired he is he has definitely had the most wonderful time.

We were a bit apprehensive about leaving Ellie, our Golden Retriever for a week as she's never really stayed with anyone she doesn't know. We found Cedar House Dog Sitting whilst searching online for someone suitable. We arranged to meet Julie for a dog walk. Cedar House is surrounded by lovely walks and woodland and Ellie seemed quite happy with Julie's dog Moss. During her stay Julie kept us updated regularly with comments and photos which really helped to put our minds at ease. She had lots of walks and some swimming too so we knew she would be happy. We'd definitely recommend Cedar House Dog Sitting to anyone else looking for somewhere to leave their dog knowing they'd be well looked after. Thanks Julie

I thoroughly recommend Cedar House Dog Boarding, Julie made our dog Monty’s stay very enjoyable with lots of lovely countryside walks and games in the garden. We met Julie and her dog Moss before we booked Monty’s place with her which was brilliant as we could see how the dogs got along and got to know Julie before our holiday. This was the first time we had left Monty as he is only two, Julie reassured us with pictures and messages of how Monty was doing which meant we could relax on holiday knowing he was having a good time too! Thank you Julie!

Ozzi had his first stay for a week. Julie and Pat really got to know Ozzi and his querky ways. We have learnt from this stay that ozzi is happy with 1 or 2 dogs but not settled with a lot of dogs. Moss has also become ozzi s pal. Thank you so much for looking after Ozzi. Definately will bring Ozzi to stay again

My dog had a brilliant time at Cedar House. He stayed for 2 weeks and I got heaps of pictures and the odd video to show how he was getting along. I will always ask Julie if she has space for him before I look anywhere else in the future. Kennels can be so noisy and solitary, it does make a difference knowing my dog has friends to play with and staying in a normal house is fabulous.

Lola stayed with Julie, Patrick and their dog Moss at Cedar House for just over 2 weeks. I can't say enough good things about about these two! Lola was so well cared for and Moss was very welcoming to Lola and a great playmate. I was put at ease during our entire holiday. Julie kept us up to date with how Lola was settling in and would send over pictures every now and then. I think Lola would have loved for our holiday to be longer so she could stay at Cedar House! We will definitely use Julie and Patrick anytime we are away.

We couldn't wish for a better "dog holiday" for our little black cockapoo "Poppy" than staying with Julie and Pat at Cedar House. Poppy has now been several times and is looked after as one of the family. She enjoys lots of walks and games with their dog Moss and when we are away they kindly send pictures of Poppy enjoying herself. Julie and Pat are clearly very experienced dog owners who offer safe and stimulating care in a lovely rural setting. Highly recommended . John and Helen.

Great place to board your dogs lovely bespoke kennels our saluki Seb has visited a couple of times and loves it Stella does a great job looking after the dogs would highly recommend !!!!

Just visited and booked for my dog to stay in May, beautifully situated and great owner

Amazing match was found for my dog while we were away in Asia. And am now about to book another pet stay . Fantastic service. You can completely relax it is extremely well run.

Am yet to use the service, however communication excellent, immediate response to email, most helpful and good advice. I contacted them because of good recommendations.

Wasn't interested in looking after our dog, after we enquired about dates they were already busy on they said they were busy and couldn't help, when asked about other dates they didn't respond to messages.

My rabbits April, Milo and Bertie have stayed with Jo several times and we have always been very happy with the service. Jo has a large set up for the rabbits with access inside and outside (inc grass) all day which suits their needs for all weathers. Value for money! Highly recommend!

Fantastic service, really good communication, the cats agree too!

Brilliant service by Jo as always, Highly recommend

Really friendly owners

Wonderful dog boarding business. So personal and attentive to our fur baby!

I have been using Steve for several years now and trust him completely with my 2 cats. I wouldn’t use anyone else! Steve has a natural affinity with animals and has spent ages getting my rescue cats to feel comfortable with him. Nothing is too much trouble. I highly recommend.

We have been using Adored Animals Hospitality for a number of years now and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Steve and his team have always provided a 5 star service when looking after both our dog Monty (who absolutely adores Steve) and our cats who are always happy when they’re visited to be fussed, fed & watered. I would highly recommend any of the services provided by Steve

Our dogs were very well looked after by Steve and Lottie while we were away. The home sitting was great and minimised disruption for the dogs. Steve is always very friendly and reliable, and we would highly recommend his services.

I can't speak highly enough of AAH, Stephen's passion for all animals is evident in his enthusiasm for offering a really great service ranging from popping in to feed your pet to arranging for his carefully vetted hosts to care for your friend if you're away. It's so reassuring to know that when you can't be there for your pet, Stephen is. Best pet care service I've found in Colchester.

Fantastic service very trustworthy friendly help me out loads . Always on time . Great valve for money peace of mind . Thanks again

Steve is a wonderful caring man, Highly recommended.

Thank you for reviewing us!
