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.

Jeff
My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
Abby
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!! :)
Joelle
Theresa is a reliable and experienced pet sitter in addition to being great at keeping house! She was very accommodating in meeting me & the dogs in advance of our sit, which proved she is a true pet person: attentive to my dogs and eager to know how they should be cared for. She kept me posted while I was away & I returned to a tidy home & happy dogs! I highly recommend her!!
Tabitha
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!
Lori
Jo & David were absolutely amazing sitters for our house and dog Rosie while we were out of town for 2 1/2 weeks. They are the best! Jo was super communicative and responsive at all times. She and David bonded with our dog, who grew very attached to them. They left our house super clean (and there were even chocolate chip cookies for us on our return)! Most of all, they are just super nice people and very easy to work with. Anyone is lucky to have JoAnna & David housesit for them.
Sally & Andy
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Emilie
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.
Katherine
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!!
Sharon
Alia is awesome and we have used her several times. She is a 5 star rated sitter every time. The dogs are happy and the house is perfect when we get home. She even cooked dinner for our arrival home because we came home late. Highly recommend Alia!!
Paula
Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem! They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice! Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here. She let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the animals. The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home! Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

The place is definitely run-down with outdated facilities. I’m not afraid to point that out. Yes, it is very loud. Far too loud and I’m sure the noise level is actually in breach of bylaws for commercial kennels. Neighbours complaining about the noise level is not a good thing. People are paying for a good service and instead their dogs are boarding each day in dirty, old cracked concrete kennels that harbour hair, fecal matter, pee, food and bacteria that can’t just be hosed away. This is against council standards. Dogs are only let out a few times a day for a short period then locked away again, and as for adequate human interaction there really isn’t enough of that at all. There is far too much capacity for each dog to receive the adequate human interaction needed and this kennel is clearly more focused on money making than offering a personalised service that is value for the customer’s money. Some positive aspects of Pet 2 Us is that they do accommodate pets with medical conditions that require medications etc, and they do house dogs separately based on size and energy level, so your little dog won’t be lumped in with boisterous larger dogs. Last time I was there dogs were fed Nutro dry food and Wag dog roll, both good quality foods. Or owners could choose to bring their dog’s own food if that was what they wanted. Kennels are decently sized with some double sized kennels for bonded dogs. Bedding is provided or owners can bring their own. Music is played over loudspeaker during the day for ambience. I advise people looking for daycare or boarding to consider a smaller kennel that prioritises personalised care and interaction for each dog, rather than the ultra commercialised Pet 2 Us business. Dogs that are anxious by nature will stress at Pet 2 Us as the noise level is far too high.
WAY too many dogs! It is so loud and packed all the time, I’m not sure how any of them are taken care of well enough for your money. My parents live near them and it’s all you can hear when I’m visiting!… it’s just too much and shouldn’t be legal… seems inhumane to have that many dogs to try care for properly and give attention too, even as a company, on one property. The amount of dogs barking from really early until late at night is insane… it’s no wonder the neighbours complain about the noise. No one can get a decent sleep around here. They need to move the business to a larger section with more land and further away from other houses.
Lovely dog staff and facilities. Dogs always are happy to go, and they come home exhausted. Thank you!
I can't praise the staff here enough. We lost a elderly family member & had to board her dog at short notice, then try & rehome him. Debby and the crew took amazing care of him & offered excellent advice to try & get the best outcome for him. We got that best outcome. Most grateful!
We have just collected our beagles after being away for almost a month. Dogs in excellent condition, clean, bedding clean and very happy pups. I suspect they would have happily stayed. Huge thankyou
We tyred to take our 2 cats here for 2 nights but because our cats where not vaccinated they could not stay. Staff was lovely and beautiful property
Our dogs have been frequent guests of Pet2Us, and we can not recommend it highly enough. Our dogs are more than family pets they are family and Debbie and the team look after them as they would there own. I am 100% confident of the care they get and that is why our girls return. It is their home away from home. They love the socializing and thrive on the company. Love Love Love the place. regards Kerryann
Lovely staff, really friendly and seem to love the dogs. Our pup comes home tired and happy, and he looks forward to going there. Will keep using them, and would definitely recommend to others!
Pet2Us was my dogs first kennel experience, and even though he was very nervous, didn’t play with other dogs and even had trouble eating, they were so nice and patient with him! All the staff are lovely and very welcoming. Thank you Pet2Us!
We have been taking our Dog there for several years and have been more than satisfied with the service. Our dog will quickly let you know if she does not like something, and is always excited to arrive at these kennels. Would thoroughly recommend them.

Our pussy Hymshee has been in Care at Whiskers and Paws 3 times this year. We have been going to Whiskers and Paws for the past 3 to 4 years. Carol, Nikita and Carol's hubby look after our Boy fantastically. When he returns home Hymshee is very well and super relaxed. We can't rate Whiskers and Paws more highly.
Best cattery - worth every dollar with how they care for your cat, so clean tidy, heaps of space and they don’t over pack any of their enclosures. Love the cat runs and scratching towers! Wish I could say the same about pets2us down the road with the dogs… Will need alternate for the dogs, but will defo be coming back to the cattery
Carol, Nikita and the team looked after my shy elderly cat for several months when she was rescued after the floods. She needed tender loving care which she got in abundance. This was her home away from home. Highly recommend this wonderful facility.
The Best Cat Resort in Hawks Bay! My cat came home happy and cleaner than when we dropped him off! They took care of him so well❤️Communication was so easy, every time I was asking about Tommy the respond was in less than 2 mins!! It was our first time leaving our baby in the resort and was so worried but our experience with these guys was amazing 😻 will do that again with peace of mind😺 we needed to extend his stay for couple of days and it was soooo easy . They are so lovely and understanding. I appreciate everything that you guys did for Tommy 😻😽
Took very good care of our 17 year old cat. Great facilities, our cat was relaxed. Her complicated medication requirements were dispensed correctly.
Professionally run cattery, always a pleasure to use!
My little 8 month cat was delivered home to me looking like she had been on holiday with lots of nice food to eat! So good and convenient that pick up and drop off is offered too. I'm thrilled with the cares given at Whiskers and Paws and I highly recommend. Many thanks😄😄
Our cat has been going there for years. Owners are always accommodating. Particular in emergencies when we have to go out of town unexpectedly. Your cat will be well looked after.
Awesome!!! Tilly loves to holiday at Whiskers & Paws! Thanks to Carol & her girls for their wonderful care. 1st class at a very good rate. Great to always pick up a healthy happy cat.
These guys are awesome. Place is spotless and completely cat smell free - which can be a big ask!! My grumpy old fur baby was very well looked after by the lovely friendly team. Thank you we will definitely be back.

Dropped our dogs off for the weekend, we'll looked after and no problems. Would highly recommend to dog owners.
Awesome kennels, my foxy seemed alot happier after this kennel visit than some in the past. Will definitely be going back
Diane runs a very organized service. My elderly dog is always very pleased to arrive at the kennels and comes home happy and very content
Just had my little albe groomed. Awesome job very happy
Left my neo mastiff at the Kennels for 10 days, supplied chicken mince/ royal canin biscuits for the 10 day period, when picking my dog up he was under weight!! Once home he had brown water poos and throwing up everywhere. Unhappy Customer!!
Biscuit has arrived back from his Easter holiday very happy, clean, calm (as he can be) and in great condition. Thanks for taking such good care of him.
Our pup loves his first doggy daycare stay!! Played with other dogs all day, and was bathed as well and nail trim which we didn’t expect. We have one very tired and happy dog, love it!
Such an amazing place for my Marshie to go to through the days and to stay when we go away. So lucky to have the team at Chesterhope looking after him so well and with so much care and love.
Love this place, where the dogs can play and are cared for beautifully
Left my baby Max at Chesterhope for 5 nights and he absolutely loved it. When i picked him up he smelt so good. The staff are lovely and took really great care of him. Will definitely use this facility again in future. This was my first time putting my furbaby in a boarding kennel and as reluctant as i was to leave him i was so happy to see that the staff at Chesterhope took such great care of him.
