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.

Kylie was a great sitter for my dogs. She kept in contact and sent pictures and took them on many walks which they love. She has her own sweet little dog that keeps to herself and was just fine with my 2. I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a housesitter
Michele is a great pet sitter for my dog Charley! She keeps me informed and sends pictures. I came home to an immaculate home! I hope she will come back 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!! 🐾🐶
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.
First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
Angela was fantastic. She came a day early to meet us and our dog Bella and to get the lay of the land and we so enjoyed meeting her and getting to know her! She took care of our home and Bella with the utmost care and attention. She was great to communicate with throughout the sit and we felt confidant being away knowing our dog and home were in such good hands! We returned to a clean house and she even prepared dinner for us! It was clear that Bella was happy, well taken care of and very fond of her!! We would definitely recommend Angela. She was a reliable sitter and a delightful person all around!!

Highly recommend Pet Park Hotel (Wendy and Gary). Having had awful experiences with other places, one of my friends recommended PPH and I haven't looked back. My dog has separation anxiety, which has improved by his going to doggy daycare twice a week (with 1 overnight stay). The dogs aren't all put together like in some places, they are separated based on temperament, etc, which is the right way to do it. My dog practically jumps out of the car and rushes up to the pen (after giving Wendy a massive hug and a lick usually). They will also send a video if I ask for one (especially during longer stay as I miss my dog!). 5 stars from me!
Incredible! Like summer camp for dogs. They picked up and dropped off our boy for a 2-week stay. He had the best time ever, playing with his new BFFs (they sent videos!) You can tell they love dogs and really take great care of them. They even had canopies, fans, and cooling mats when it got hot. Reasonable rates and a beautiful location. Your pup won’t even miss you!
We left our Cockapoo Teddy with Gary and Wendy for just over 3 weeks. We were worried as we had not left Teddy for that long before. However, Wendy and Garry couldn’t do enough for the boy. They sent regular videos of Teddy in his environment with a message as well which was fantastic. We can’t thank them enough! What a great place to leave your loved pets. We highly recommend. Sarah & Richard
It’s clear to see that that both Gary and Wendy love all dogs and I believe any dog who stays with them become like their own. Monza hates being apart from us but having stayed now 3 times he is away without a second glance after kissing and jumping over both Gary and Wendy. Can’t recommend them enough.
Our dog Gemma has just returned from a 6 day stay. The care that she received is above and beyond. She is always happy to go and has a great time. As an only dog it gives her a chance to socialise with other dogs and loves it. The collection and return service is wonderful as we don't have transport.
My husband and I are so grateful to Caroline for looking after our JRT, Bella, for 3 days while we attended a wedding in Alvor. She was really helpful from initial phone contact, collected and delivered Bella promptly at the agreed times. I would have no hesitation in recommending this lady.
Last minute Christmas trip and our dog spent 10 days here. Well looked after by people who love dogs.
BEST Hotel for pets in the Algarve. I was really nervous leaving my dogs, but Gary and Wendy kept sending me videos to ensure me everything was alright. I recomend 100% this hotel.
Sofia had a great time. Friendly owners and staff.
My dogs love being here, Caroline is a great host
We are so happy with Leslie. For our (first) dog Lotte, a small 7 month old poodle we were looking for grooming services in Lagos. We didn't really know what care she needed so we’re even more happy to have found Bed & Biscuits! Leslie took a lot of time and answered all of our questions at a friendly phone call and again at the first meeting. You can immediately tell how much she loves dogs and that it is truly her passion. We immediately felt that we were leaving Lotte in good hands and were very excited about the result. Since Lotte never had been groomed before, we were extra nervous on how she would do/behave. But Leslie takes her time with the dog, listens to her needs and slowly gets her used to the grooming process. When we picked up Lotte we were overjoyed. She looked sooo cute - Expectations for sure exceeded! Lotte said goodbye to Leslie with a happy wiggle tail. We can only wholeheartedly recommend Leslie to everyone and are super happy to have found her here in the Algarve! We look forward to every visit and are grateful for her tips and expertise! Thank you! <3
Big shout out to Leslie Craig and her Bed and Biscuits dog hotel. Sophie spent almost 3 weeks there on doggie 🐶 vacation while I was delayed in the USA. She got to run in the woods and play at the beach and hang out with Leslie’s dogs at the Quinta in the big dog run. With her private “heated” bedroom she now puts herself to bed. The bonus was a bath and grooming so now she looks prettier than ever and feels incredibly soft. Highly recommend taking your dog for stays or overnights. She’s conveniently located outside of Lagos. Thanks Leslie!
We took Baxter our cocker spaniel for a groom and we were so pleased when we picked him up. He had been cut to cocker spaniel breed standard from the book. Much better than some of the grooming he had in the UK. Excellent.
Beautiful happy place with happy owner. Completely secure surrounds .
I loved the spaces for the little dogs, very well decorated and a family feel
Very friendly atmosphere my dog Bobby was happy not to be locked up and enjoyed the free feeling with all the open space. It was his first experience in a kennel but he will be back if needed. Thanks Anna, Eduard
Ana and Henrique are a great team and will take care of your animal like they're own, great little farm with all the amenities needed
Excellent space to leave your pet on vacation too!!! Always impeccable. Congratulations. I highly recommend it. Just seeing it coming makes our dog super happy!
Hi, I need it. I have 8 small dogs and my mother is hospitalized in Portimão. Now I'm looking for shelter for my pugs for 3 nights. Is this possible, and what is the price?
They took great care of my kitten and sent some photos and information to put our mind at ease.
Friendly family takes care of many dogs
Excellent service. Very friendly and helpful. Thanks!
Thank you!
Thanks!
I cannot say enough good things about Vanessa - Algarve Petsitters & Home Services. Vanessa cared for our two fur babies Izzy & Ollie for 3 weeks. We feel they received wonderful care, abundant attention. Vanessa took exceptional care of all our indoor and outdoor plants. Many thanks for leaving our home in excellent shape. Vanessa kept us updated with photos and videos giving us comfort that everything is under control. Vanessa is trustworthy and dependable. We highly recommend Algarve Petsitters and Home Services.
I'm so glad I found Algarve Pet Sitters, in the person of Vanessa. She was perfect, and I felt completely reassured leaving my cat with her for a week. Every day, I received photos and videos of my cat, and it was clear she was enjoying her time with Vanessa. Although she also sits for dogs and other animals, she ensured that my cat was the only cat staying with her for the week, which was very important to me. I definitely recommend Algarve Pet Sitters and will certainly use their service again whenever I need it. Thank you so much! 💖
A huge thank you to Vanessa for looking after our fur baby Sofia for a whole week! It was Sofia's first time staying over at 'aunty Nessa' and Sofia loved every minute! Thank you for all the walks ; special attention; extra love and care! And most of all for all our daily updates and photos! It was lovely to see how much fun Sofia was having whilst we were having fun on our holiday in Disney Paris! We could truly relax knowing Sofia was in good loving hands! Sofia will definitely visit her aunty Nessa again!! Lots of love Yvette, Quintus,Jeanevi and Sofia♥️
Thank you so much Vanessa. Luna has had a wonderful 3 weeks with you! Vanessa pet/house sat for 3 weeks while we were away. She provided lots of photos and videos and Luna was truly spoilt with love and outings 🥰 We came back to a spotless house too 😊 Thank you for giving us peace of mind that Luna was not only in safe hands, but having a ball at the same time.
Vanessa was amazing, she was able to accept and take Care Of our dog with a very short notice (less than two hours!). Our dog was really happy with her, and Vanessa would always be in touch by sending updates and pictures of our Arya 😍😍😍 I would recommend her 100% shes lovely with all of the pets she takes care of ☺☺☺
Vanessa took excellent care of Zalto for two consecutive periods, one long weekend and thereafter during a two week period. We were constantly informed about how she behaved and what activities they undertook. Needless to say, Zalto had a more active time with Vanessa than at home. A totally relaxed, accustomed and happy dog met us on our return. Vanessa - you are a dream and a fabulous caretaker. Big hugs and thanks . Birgitte & Egil
My little dog stayed with Vanessa for two weeks whilst I was away. Vanessa sent me several daily updates in pictures, films and messages reassuring me my doggy was having fun, out walking and playing and generally just happy. Vanessa welcomed my little dog in to her home treating him as her own. I’m very grateful for my dog being so well looked after and cared for.
I'm so glad we found Nessa. She has looked after our cat Alfie twice now, and I highly recommend her. She gives us daily updates and photos, and when we return, he is always super happy. We have used several different pet sitters over the years, but Nessa is by far the best. thank you so much.
Vanessa was great! My dog was well taken care of and she updates with plenty of pictures and videos.
Nessa was fabulous and gave our Cavapoo Stewie excellent care during his day and overnight stays. Stewie formed a great bond with Nessa and the other pets he hung out with during his visits. Stewie will miss Nessa and hopefully we’ll see her later in the year.
I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved furry friend to an extraordinary dog walker, and I must say, I couldn't be more thrilled with the exceptional service they provided. If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond to care for your dog, look no further! From the moment I met Fern, it was evident that they have an innate love and passion for animals. Their warm and friendly demeanour instantly put my pooch at ease, and I knew my baby dog would be in great hands.
I can only say Ferne is fantastic, the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. Darcie our Goldendoodle loves her and her little dog Jasper.
Great person, really connects and cares about our dog. We feel very comfortable knowing Fern is looking after our family member. Thanks for everything Andrew
Fern looked after my Dog for the evening and sent constant updates of how our boy was doing. Would highly recommend for pet care and will use again
Fern captured the heart of our young Cocker Spaniel from the very first minute. We regularly received messages and videos. In the meantime, Fern came to look after Charlie a few more times, much to our satisfaction! Highly recommended
Our Phebus had a great time with Fern. She is passionate about her job and we don't hesitate to entrust her with our 4-legged friend who adores her.
