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
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!

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
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
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.

Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
Tamar
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Steve
Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Virginia
Leah & Elias, were an absolute joy as housesitters. They arrived a day early so we could all meet and go over the pets routine. Our cat is relatively new and has a little separation anxiety but they managed his care really well. Our dog needed to be dropped off at a sitters and they took care of that as well. We also came home to a clean and neat house! Overall, they went above and beyond and I highly recommend them.
Julia
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!
Koni
Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.
Casey
Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
Andrew
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.

Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

We went on an unplanned holiday at short notice. The kennels were great at finding a space for our dog He stayed 3: weeks, which is a long time! Throughout our holiday we were provided with updates, of how he was. This was a lovely touch and welcomed by us all. When we collected him he was clean, a bit slimmer ( to many treats at home🤭) and very happy. Great service, great care of our dog.
We have used Kapiti kennels a number of times now for long and short stays. Lily, our boxer is always happy to go in. She loves hanging out with all the dogs. They staff are a wonderful team.
Quiet poor service in doing the bookings. Thought of booking with them for my dog for long stay for the first time but didn't had a nice conversation with the owner. They repeatedly booked the wrong date and blamed us that we provided the wrong date. Was quiet rude in call and kept blaming us that we are providing wrong dates. The portal does not show any previous chats/requests history so hard to find the previous conversations. It feels like these businesses don't take their booking system seriously or take new customers for granted.
We needed a kennels to look after our dog for an extended period of time - 3 weeks. This was because our booked dog sitter turned into a scam. We searched around and were recommended this place. When I dropped off our dog, I was pleasantly surprised that it looked like a fantastic place for our pup. The drive into the place, is clean, smart and the facilities look fantastic for dogs of all sizes. Whilst we were away, we were emailed with mini updates about how our dog was settling in and how happy she was - multiple times. It was such a relief to know our dog was being looked after by people that cared for animals and loved them the way they deserve. When we picked our dog up, she clearly looked like she had been looked after (had been washed) and was a happy pooch! Will we use these kennels again - without a question of doubt. Do we recommended them - yes - 100%.
I thought I had posted a review but turns out I hadn't. I apologise for the delay. Our dog Kai was boarded at Kapiti Kennels October to November last year. He really enjoyed his time there. It really gave us a piece of mind getting updates after leaving his for so long for the first time. Definitely recommend!
Excellent day care and boarding, my boy Lewis loves going every time and is reluctant to come home hahaha shows he's having a great time :)
Darcy loves to visit for the day each week. He has many friends, such as Dotty luna and Milly. It's good social contact for him.
Happy dog going in and tired dog coming out. Just perfect for a fun day while socialising with other fury friends. Sorry to hear day boarding finishing soon. Thanks team!
Dogs barking all day and all bloody night. Staying at Lindale Motels and all we have heard since arriving yesterday afternoon is constant barking as if someone is deliberately distressing a group of dogs. Absolutely shameful.
Love this place. Always helpful. Dog goes to daycare twice a wk and I would recommend you check them out if looking for a place your dog can hang out for the day. Also great for long term stays.

Natasha recently looked after our cats while we were away over the holidays. She was great to deal with and gave us daily updates including pictures of how the cats were going while we were away. Our normally shy cats quickly grew to love her and started greeting her at the door when she arrived each day. It’s clear she has a lot of love for all of the animals she is responsible for. We would absolutely use her services again and would recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Natasha was fabulous looking after our fur babies while we were away for a month. Reassuring knowing they were well looked after, building a friendly rapport with our timid cats, provided great updates & communication! Highly recommend Natasha and so glad we have got to know you. Thanks Sue & Darren
We’ve got 2 indoor cats and after finding out our normal cattery was full being the silly season I went hunting for somebody reliable to feed and care for them at home (and ensure they don’t get out!). Natasha came to the rescue and was reliable, trustworthy and our cats appeared to absolutely love her. We got home to 2 very happy cats and were super happy to see their litter boxes clean and plenty of water. Thanks Natasha! We’ll be sure to contact you for when we need another break!
Natasha took great care of our Tibetan Terrier, allowing us to have a stress-free holiday right before Christmas. We had great communication with Natasha. She took great care to understand what needed to be done both for our pet and the few things we needed help with around the house. Awesome service!
Natasha is super lovely and did a wonderful job looking after our 2 cats and 2 dogs while we went away for a week. She is professional, attentive, caring and friendly, we are so glad to have found someone reliable to we can go away and not worry anymore. We would definitely recommend her
Natasha looked after our cat and two rabbits over a long weekend. She visited twice a day and most importantly spent time and interacted with our pets. Natasha also texted us and reassured us our small animals were being well cared for and that our home was secure. Natasha is reliable and trustworthy and is sure to do a job well.
Finding Natasha was the best thing for our little pup, Noodle. We cannot recommend Natasha highly enough! Noodle is so shy and doesn't warm to strangers easily. The first time Noodle met Natasha, she hid behind the sofa. Natasha persevered, providing love, patience and attention - she went above and beyond to form a connection and now Noodle loves her as if she were a member of our family. Noodle gets so excited for her walks, she squeals at the door while Natasha parks her car. When our family unexpectedly had to go back to the UK for a while, Natasha to the rescue. She was there for Noodle and could even stay nights at our own house so Noodle didn't feel unsettled. We would be lost without her and seeing the special bond Noodle and Natasha have is so heartwarming.
Natasha cared for our 7 month old pup Whetu and our cats Loki + Luna. Natasha stayed in our home for 4 days. We couldn't recommend Natasha more we received daily txt updates re the wellbeing of our fur babies and came home to find them very relaxed and happy! Natasha is responsible, trustworthy and exceeded our expectations...we will be using her pet minding services again. Sequoia & Ben
We've recently moved to the Kapiti Coast and I'm so glad we've found Natasha! She's looked after our 2 cats while we went away for the weekend and it was so good knowing they were nice and relaxed at home being checked on every day. She provides txt updates letting us know they're happy which takes all the worry away. Highly recommend.
Natasha looked after our cat Lily while we were away over Christmas and I would highly recommend her! She visited everyday and made sure our cat was well cared for while we were away, including lot's of play and cuddles. She allowed us to travel with no concerns during a busy time of year, and we came home to one happy cat. A++

Lovely people, look after the cats so well. Our two cats have been so happy there. Good rates.
Jenny is the most caring lady, my Cats have only ever been in this cattery, one now passed and my girl is 17yrs I fully trust that she is well cared for here and she always purrs before we leave that speaks for itself.
Will definitely be returning our cat Pebbles was so relaxed when we picked her up. The catery is very clean and you can tell the cats are all looked after.
Fantastic care, very reasonable pricing, and great sized accommodation!
Absolutely excellent service - Jenny went totally out of her way to accommodate my two cats who she picked up late at night from the cat bus. Couldn't ask for more ☺️
Lovely and clean and Jenny is fantastic with an obviously genuine car for the cats she looks after
Our two cats stay here from time to time and I can thoroughly recommend this cattery and Jenny
Jenny is a wonderful cat carer. Would definitely recommend
Well the cat loved it, $13.00 a night per cat, or there abouts.

My cat Harry had a 3 week vacation at Scratch Pad Cattery. He was well loved and cared for - so much so - that he didn't really want his vacation to end. Highly recommend the team, the service and the environment purpose-built for cats who feel like they just want to have some 'me-time'.
Our senior cat has stayed here several times since we moved to the coast and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Scratch Pad. They treat Jayna (17) with so much love and care, I know she's in good hands when we're away. Last time I took her in it was her birthday, and she got a spontaneous serenade of happy birthday. The facilities are also lovely. I really like the space. If I was a cat, I'd want to stay here, too.
Marvellous staff who look after your furry friend and run a tight ship. I can relax on hols knowing Moko is in safe hands. Super friendly and kind people. The cats get indoor/outdoor flow in their run and can socialise in the big room. Moko didn't want to come down from the top level in the big room when I went to collect him. Perfect respite care for cat parents!
I cannot rate Scratch Pad highly enough! Wonderful carers with wonderful facilities. Our vocal, aloof Mika was cared for with love. Despite not settling in as comfortably as we had hoped, Scratch Pad staff made sure she was eating, toileting and healthy as can be with regular attention. Thank you so much x (attached photo of Mika after pickup)
This is a great cattery. My cat boarded at Scratchpad for 6 weeks while I moved house. Natalie, Lisa, and Martin took such great care of her as well as all the other cats in their care. They were professional, knowledgeable, flexible and accommodating. I observed the wonderful care they provided to all the cats as I visited my cat for an hour each week. My cat is not sociable and didn't want to leave her personal cage, but with their patience and encouragement she got to the point of spending all day relaxed in the playroom with the other cats. This team is great, I've talked with them a lot and watched them work, they really personalize care for each cat. The facility is clean and has a terrific playroom, and each cage has a lovely small outdoor run with driftwood and a view of the garden, or the trees behind. I highly recommend this cattery. Thanks for taking such great care of Sass you did an awesome job. Five stars ☆☆☆☆☆ Chris Jan & Feb 2024
Clean and loving environment for your furry friends. Owners and staff are friendly, they keep you updated on your cat throughout their stay. Well fed and spacious area for them to wander around. Would highly recommend them!
Wonderful experience each time I’ve used this cattery. Lovely people + Great service and cats are very well looked after and safe! Highly recommended
The best cattery we've used so far for our two fur queens. They always come home well fed and calm. Also an important thing is that they've never came back with "bad habits" learnt from other catteries we tried prior. The people here really take care of your kitties with love. (One of my cat didn't want to come home the last time ahahaha)
My three cat's have just finished their first stay at Scratchpad. Right from when I was initially shown around to picking up my cat's,at the end of their stay, the owners are very caring & friendly. The cattery is immaculate, spacious, individual inside/outside runs, plus communal area. Highly recommended.
Our cat stays with these guys and we can't help but recommend it enough. The team are well organized and so friendly. Our cat is never too stressed after we pick him up too which is nice.
