We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!

Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!

Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.

Such a great family! George, Larissa and their crew were a fantastic bunch. Our large senior dog got an eye infection right before we left for our trip and so we had to ask them to do some extra eye care. When it was clear that it wasn’t getting better they were willing to load up Lorax and take him to a vet appointment and then apply the prescribed ointment for the next week and a half. Definitely above and beyond care that we really appreciated! Our house was left in great shape, our pets were super well cared for, and George and Larissa were great communicators. We have had many many sitters over the past 3 years but this was the first family. Nothing to worry about, they were terrific and we would happily have them back again. Thanks for taking such good care of our fury family and our home!

Wendy was the perfect dog sitter and house sitter for us. She managed our house and dog and in such a caring a responsible way. Wendy was prompt with communicating with us and managed situations that arose professionally. Our house was spotless and our dog happy when arrived home. I knew everything thing was in good hands while we were away. I hope we can invited her to stay with us again.

Susan and Jim were amazing sitters for my 2 boys whilst I went to Portugal to play golf. Communication we had prior to the sit was excellent, and we were able to discuss the dogs in detail. They arrived the day before I was due to leave so we were able to have a good handover. They really looked after the dogs well, and my house was immaculate when I returned. I can't recommend them highly enough, just wished they lived in the UK so I could use them on a regular basis. Thank you Susan and Jim xx

Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!

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.

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!!

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.

Anne of Pooch Pals sat with our Labra-Setts while we attended an evening concert at Castle Howard. She was great with the boys and it gave us peace of mind that they were not alone at the inn. She is very professional and very large-dog savvy. Thank you Pooch Pals!

Our dogs have gone to fox hill kennels for few years now the owner Ginny is very good she helps u decide what kind of grooming you want and best for ur dog our dogs luv going to Ginny they are well looked after nails clipped ears cleaned out very professional thank u Ginny at foxhill kennels.
Both Dave ( Jack Russell ) and Willow ( Bengal cat ) had their first visit here for 9 days and seems they enjoyed it. The kennells and cattery were very clean and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. We will defo send them here again for their jollies when we go on ours. Many thanks
The team at Foxhill Kennels have been looking after our Dog and Cat for about 16 years. They are friendly and helpful. We have always felt they take great care of our pets when we go away and know they are being well looked after. We would definitely recommend them.
First time both dogs in kennels only 2.5 days they came looking good and very happy need a week to give 5 stars to be sure they are happy. They where very helpful on short notice we had family requirement to leave the country on short notice
Buster always seems happy to go there. The staff seem very nice and they were accommodating when I needed to drop Buster off outside the usual arrival times. Also you can arrange for your dog to be groomed before you pick them up so they can go hone looking and smelling nice!
Our dogs stayed at the kennels for 2 days, they were well looked after & returned happy & relaxed, would highly recommend 🙂 …
My 2 chocolate labs, Holly & Ruby are at Foxhill yet again for more professional care and a few days holiday. We are happy to be regular customers.

Wow and just wow! My dog has severe separation anxiety to the point I wanted to rehome him and struggled on a daily basis as could literally go no where, he follows me from the bed to the toilet and every where I go. I tried him at many doggy Day care centres only to collect him and was told he howeled, cried and was a total mess! Never sent him back as it broke my heart. I really did not want to re home him as how would I know the new owner wouldn’t leave him? Bearing in mind I had private help from amazing dog trainers, no before you ask I did not get my dog during lockdown and NO my dog is not pampered at all and again NO I’m not to blame! Just how he happens to be. I took Bruno to Castle Canine a few times as I hated leaving him even though I work out of the home at work ( in the vicinity of home) I got very busy and didn’t know what to do, hence tried Castle Canine. Christine was so honest the first couple of times Bruno went and informed me he was upset or was howling, however Christine and her family persuaded his issues and Bruno now goes 3/4 times a week and now runs in to see them and their tribe of dogs he loves going so much so he seemingly misses going when home ( well that’s my insecurities) Honestly I could not live without Slingsby doggy day they have helped Bruno and my own family so much I cannot imagine them not being in our lives right now ? Life would change drastically and my Bruno would be so unhappy 😔 love them to bits xxxxx
Absolutely amazing 5* experience here. The family-run firm are really something special and offer fantastic, tailored, luxury care. I wouldn’t take my dog anywhere else. They keep you updated throughout the day and the facilities are wonderful. My dog loves them and they look after him so well. Would highly recommend, especially to anyone a little nervous about doggy day care (as I was). They immediately put you at ease and keep you updated throughout the day. Thanks so much Castle Canine Care: you’re brilliant!
They don't just look after you're bestest friend... they look after you too!! Our springer Bloom just loves going to doggy day care and loves boarding too. Christine and the gang seem to treat her as one of their own and are so flexible and caring! I can't sing their praises enough.
Castle Canine Care are a family run doggy day care service and it's clear to see how passionate they are about the service they provide. I'm so pleased I found them. The welfare and happiness of the dogs in their care is at the heart of everything they do and is a real home from home experience for them. It's so nice to see my dog go through those gates so happily in the morning, she is always greeted with such fondness and I know I can go off to work for the day knowing she's in the best care possible. They truly do love the dogs as though they were their own, what more could you ask for. I would have no hesitation in recommending Castle Canine Care, nothing is too much trouble. They are very accommodating and flexible and are just the loveliest people to deal with, but more importantly they have a fantastic facility that gives the dogs everything they could possibly need to keep them safe, warm, exercised, treated and happy ... I've only used the day care facility so far, but if I ever needed boarding, I would have no hesitation in leaving my dog in their care.
We couldn’t recommend Castle Canine Care more. Our two sausages, Maxie and Rufus, see Christine and her beautiful family as their second home and family. We trust them implicitly with our little fur babies and honestly can’t thank Christine, Michael, Sam and Chloe enough for loving them (nearly!) as much as we do! We’re so grateful and happy to have found our doggy daycare for life!!
Castle Canine provide an absolute first class service! From day one I was in no doubt Toby would be looked after like one of the family. I dare say his favourite day of the week is when he gets to visit Christine, Sam, and all his doggy pals! 😊 Thank you Castle Canine! Xx
I was looking for day care and boarding for my first dog, which would be home from home and couldn’t recommend Castle Canine enough! The first time I went on holiday and left him in their care, I was sent regular updates and pictures and he had so much fun, I’m not sure if he wanted to come back home! They have been an important part of his development and is treated as one of the family!
Absolutely fantastic place to send your dog. Christine and Samantha are lovely, caring, and trustworthy. My older dog is settled and happy there, would not want to send her anywhere else!!
My boy absolutely loves coming here, all but pushes the gate down in the morning at drop off! Always know he’s been well looked after and cared for just like he’s at home :) always flexible when they can be with times and just lovely people, can’t recommend enough! Xx
Really happy with the care my best friend Ricky 🐶 received this Thursday. Both ladies were professional and helpful . Ricky slept the whole journey home after having been well socialised and had lots of play . Would give 6 ✨ if we could . …

Very disappointed with the service offered by Dawn. I had to alter a drop off time with her at the last minute by half an hour and she was very abusive to me and the dog when I tried to drop him off, shouting at me, snatching my dog off me and the food bag. I had used her before , the first time being she went out and left her son who I had never met to receive my dog! I asked for my money back of £40 and she has refused. I will not be using her again
Dawn is amazing with dogs and treats them as family. She's pretty good with their humans too 😀 …
One of the nicest couples I have ever met, Dawn loves every dog that enters her home.

Unfortunately didn’t even get to sample, we booked in with two dogs in March and gave full description of needs, one of my dogs is on medication as he has IVDD, which affects his mobility… We said we had a set of wheels that would help them when letting him Out for a walk. I was told that they couldn’t possibly do this as they dont have the time to be messing with the aids! I said that was fine and that it was just to support but he doesn’t always need it, but was then told they couldn’t accommodate a dog with a disability, which is shocking!! I also said that he may need to be let out fairly early around 6:30/7 for his toilet as he can’t hold it for hours on end, he is not incontinent, just need regular toilet breaks, again they said that they did t have the time to accommodate. They then said that they are going to have to cancel the booking leaving us virtually no time to find somebody else at such short notice! I was so disappointed with the lack of care and empathy for my poor dog, the wheels take only 5 seconds to attach but they did t have the time. I didn’t think that Such discrimination was poignant within the canine world. I would not entertain these boarding kennels, and pity any dog that may have a disability.
Happy paws is a well appointed kennels in a countryside location with plenty of secure exercise areas and comfortable accommodation. Rosie and her team are brilliant, and their love of animals very apparent. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a safe welcoming kennels for their pets.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The only place we will leave our dogs! The fact that our dogs get excited when we go down their lane, says it all. Clean and tidy kennels with excellent facilities for exercise. Rosie & the team are excellent. Thank you!
At the time of the one star rating by Valerie Elton,Rosie was/is having issues with her phone, no O2 signal in the area, so is UNABLE to pick up messages straight away and respond quickly. She has a back log of people to contact and is doing all she can! She does not have time to sit inside all day calling people from her landline as the care of the dogs currently boarding take priority. Please be kind! Please be patient!
My dog has loved coming to these kennels over several years. The care is exemplary and on every occasion I was completely satisfied. You know when your dog hasn't been happy and I can honestly say she loved it. Rosie and Richard go the extra mile, and all staff I have ever dealt with have been caring, dedicated and willing to accommodate my dog's needs. The kennels are always clean and the atmosphere relaxed. They follow instructions to the hilt and I really can't recommend them enough. Be reassured your dog will be well cared for and will undoubtedly love it's stay.
We took Ellie here after being let down by our usual kennels, Ellie enjoyed her stay, Rosie is lovely and looks after all of the dogs with love and care. We will definitely carry on using Happy Paws from now on and we can't recommend them enough. Thank you for looking after Ellie whilst we were away.
Excellent kennels with lovely owners who really care about your dog. Our dog Suzy always walks in wagging her tail, which helps when you're leaving your beloved pet when you go on holiday. We use them everytime we go away.
I have telephoned to request a booking. Voice mail says they pick up messages in the evening, and will get back to me the next day. No they don't. I have telephoned 4 times now and no one has returned my call. Or ring Rosie on her mobile. Same thing. Rosie hasn't returned my call either.
Highly recommend Rosie and everyone at Happy Paws! I work as a veterinary nurse and trust my dogs at these kennels 100%! Wouldn't go anywhere else
I have been bringing my dogs here for many years. The service is second to none. My dogs love it here and leap out the car when we arrive! It’s a real home from home and Rosie and Richard are fabulous! Wouldn’t use anywhere else. Immaculately clean.

If you have a dog and a busy life, and want to make sure your treasured pet get's properly exercised I can't recommend Hazel and her Pickering Dog Walking Service another. My dog, Creighton, ADORES her and I think probably likes her more than me. She listens, the service is incredibly flexible and she's a proper dog lover. You can trust her, to look after your pet, probably, better than you look after it yourself. Highly recommended.
