Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.
Megan was the perfect house sitter - got lots of updates and pics of my kitty, communicated well, was flexible and left the place spotless! Would definitely ask her to pet sit again!
We've had many pet sitters over the years (this is our first time using this app) and Missy is the best sitter we've ever had for our dog and cats. Our pets, particularly our dog, adored her and was really sad to see her go. It is obvious she loves animals and immediately understood the pack dynamics and the pet personalities. She kept the house tidy, litter box clean, and the animals so well loved. Because she was traveling from far away, she stayed with us the night before our trip and the night we came back. It was a pleasure to get to know her. We would welcome her back to our house as a friend or a sitter anytime. Highly recommend!
We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.
Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!
I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!
Thomas did an amazing job! We were very pleased with how well he was able to care for our 3 active Boston terriers. He was able to handle all 3 on a walk and feed them their special meal everyday. He even ventured out and took them to the beach which is no easy task for 3 excited dogs. Thomas did a great job communicating before and during the stay. We came home to a clean house with bedding washed. We had a handful of other pet sitters through this website and Thomas easily rates at the top of our list. Thank you for taking great care for the dogs and the house.
Janis is absolutely the best pet sitter and home care we have had. She is a regular for us during our Christmas vacation because we totally trust her with the care of our three dogs and the management of our home. She is so good and efficient that I have already requested that she sits for us again next Christmas. Our three dogs absolutely adored her as she played fetch, took them on walks, loved and spoiled them. Management of our home was excellent. I had no concerns whatsoever as we had packages delivered and Mail that needed to be picked up. The house was in much better condition than what we left it. I highly recommend Janis and you will be fortunate to have her as your sitter.
Neil and Anne have just sat for us for a second time, for a week. They are outstanding sitters in every way. Always punctual with communication and arrival. They both have responsible jobs and this is evident as they are both very organised. They care very much about the animals they look after. We were regularly sent updates, pictures and video clips of them, which is great to see when you are away. When we came home we were greeted by happy pets and an immaculately tidy house. We cannot recommend Neil and Anne enough. As far as we are concerned they are perfect housesitters! …...Hopefully they will come back and sit again soon!

Claire takes exceptional care of our dog. The attention to detail and love shown to visiting dogs is exceptional
Good service dogs well looked after and cared for.
A brilliant safe place to leave your much loved dog.
I was wondering how much a week would be for 2 chahuahuas please
Excellent 👍 All very happy dogs 🐕😀 …
Really good friendly service at a good price
Mac, walked my son’s Siberian husky (Logan) for 3 weeks while we were on holiday. Logan loved being with Mac and got very excited waiting for him to come. Mac is obviously experienced and knowledgeable about dogs he is also reliable. Would highly recommend Mac’s happy pets.
Shane is brilliant with my pet's and they love him.
Reliable, flexible and amazing value for someone who loves my dog as much as I do. Carrie is a professional and will always put the dogs wellbeing first. Thank you!
Carrie looked after our three rabbits whilst we were away for a week, and visited them at our home. She did a fantastic job and we couldn’t be happier with how she loved and cared for them, and we would absolutely book her in again next time! Thank you Carrie x
Carrie has been looking after our cat on a regular basis over the last few years. We feel so lucky to have her, and we have total peace of mind when away from home. It makes so much difference to us and our cat, for him to be able to stay at home and know he is well cared for. Thank you Carrie.
Always cares wonderfully for Dave my cat. She went out of her way today to fetch a spare key from my letting agency after I forgot to give her a new one. Would highly recommend.
Alison has been walking our dog for over 12 months and has provided a great service. Our dog really loves her walks and we are very happy.
Carrie is fabulous, my little dog loves his time with the pack 😀 …
Wonderful service by someone who truly loves animals. Very professional, will be booking again. Thank you. :)
Thank you Gary for looking after our two new bunnies last week (and at such late notice). We really appreciate how well you cared for them. We will definitely be returning. We would 100% recommend Plymouth Parrot Hotel. Gary is very easy going, reliable and very attentive to all animals in his care. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Fantastic place. Took really good care of our guinea pigs. Very helpful when we were delayed coming home as well. Would really recommend to anyone.
Amazing with the birds and has helped us loads! 100 recommend!
Nice place 👌 thanks …
Sarah has looked after molly many times and we never have any worries with regular updates/pictures. Chester and Sonny are so good with other dogs it’s nice for molly to have some doggy company whilst she’s at Sarah’s. The fact that her partner Ben is a professional trainer also reassures us that molly is cared for properly. Highly recommend.
My dog Buddy recently stayed with Sarah and her partner Ben, for 5 days while I went on holiday. I was a bit concerned about leaving Buddy, because he is an 11 year old rescue dog that I have had for a year. I was worried he would think he had been abandoned again. My worries were unfounded. Buddy was treated as part of the family. He went for lovely walks and had lots of love. Sarah has a lovely caring way with dogs. I received regular messages, photos and videos. I would not hesitate next time to leave Buddy with Sarah and Ben again.
Absolutely outstanding doggy care. My puppies were treated like part of the family, they played with Sarah and Ben's dogs and took part in all family activities. It is extremely comforting to know that your puppies are in such safe hands and are cared for so well. Sarah goes above and beyond to ensure that your family pets are looked after and I know that my two puppies feel like it is a second home, which alleviates any worries you may have when leaving them. Sarah and Ben both have very deep love and understanding of dogs and this is so evident.
We had a fantastic experience with Sarah and her family when we arranged a meet-and-greet for our dog, Sunny. Right from the start, Sarah was super friendly and welcoming. She has a lovely home and two gorgeous little dogs, which made Sunny feel right at ease. We also met her husband, who is a professional dog trainer, adding to our confidence in their care. Throughout Sunny's stay, Sarah kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which was really reassuring. We came back to a very happy dog, clearly well taken care of. We're so pleased with the experience that we've already booked our next two holidays with Sunny staying with Sarah. Highly recommend!
Left our little westie, Cora with Sarah last week. She has never been left with anyone before. Everything went really well and not only was Cora happy but Sarah sent updates throughout the visit. Will definitely be using her again.
Sarah looked after mimi and dino this weekend. We were apprehensive as they are not always great with other dogs, but needn't have worried. Chester and Sonny were brilliant with them. Mimi and dino had the best time!! Came home happy and relaxed.....😁😁😁😁😁😁 …
Really friendly and professional service. Would highly recommend for training, walking and home from home care.
Patch absolutely loves coming to central bark for his doggy holidays! Louise and Dave are amazing, they even send us photos as they know how much we all miss our boy when we are away. He is loved and looked after and is so excited when he arrives! We have even changed our holiday as they were fully booked on our original week as we wouldn’t leave our boy with anyone else. We highly recommend. Thank you guys
These guys are amazing. 2 years ago, I became a single dog dad, serving in the armed forces, sometimes working up to 80 hours a week and frequently having to be away from the home for more that 24 hours. Central Bark came to my rescue. Certainly for an extended period of over a year Louise and Dave looked after my fur baby Liloo, a Northern Inuit (Husky/Mal/GSD mix) and treated her just like one of their family. Liloo would always be wagging her tail and well happy to be spending the day and night at Central Bark. Although I now have a partner and so use their services less so, they helped me enormously recently when my newborn son arrived 8 weeks early. They truly are wonderful dog people who will treat your animals as they would one of their own. Highly recommended.
The best dog walker
Lily loves this place!
Have been trying to get someone on the phone for days they just never bother to answer . You can't even leave a message. Won't bother again.
You are not on our system has a customer.
Barking Mad has been really great for our spaniel Rusty. The service is fantastic, and he always has a wonderful time with his hosts. As one of life's great worriers, I find this service is brilliant as we can go away knowing our boy is having a holiday too and it is so reassuring! Thank you Barking Mad team!
Cannot recommend Barking Mad enough, Rolo has had 2 fantastic holidays arranged by Carolyn and the team. He has been placed with 2 lovely sitters and has returned well looked after and loved. We would recommend this service to anyone needing a reliable dog sitter for their fur baby.
I used Barking Mad Plymouth for the second time last week for my dog Coco. Very professional, organised and friendly and reassured me that my Coco would be looked after. Thank you also to the host family. Has meant a lot. I will definitely use again.
We are very particular about where our dog stays when he's not with us. We've tried kennels, dog sitters etc but none compare with Barking Mad. He always comes home with a spring in his step, a wagging tail and totally unstressed. Caroline and Jennifer always ensure that the hosts who look after him understand his needs and temperament. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.
I have nothing but praise for barking mad. They have always gone above and beyond, even helping me out very last minute in an emergency situation. over the last couple of years my dogs have loved their time away and have been treated as one of the family. This is vital with having a bull terrier as they love people and cuddles. She comes back very happy and tail waggy.
Friendly and reliable business owners
Gentian hill pet hotel have been looking after our two greyhounds for three years now, and what an awesome job they do. Jack absolutely loves running around with his sister Willow, and also both love being fussed over by all staff especially willow. They always come home absolutely worn out for at least a week. Our dogs are treated so well, and it's like they're the only two at hotel, because from the time they arrive, they know as do we, they're in safe hands. We can't recommend this place for your pets enough. All animals get treated like royalty. The place from car park to reception is clean, tidy and little treats in reception. The transfer from animals going in and out is extremely smooth. Staff are always so courteous and friendly. They always put us at ease if we have issues, which I must add we haven't ever had issues. They post videos or photos of all your babies, so you can see them having fun. Thank you for looking after our two babies, we always send you photos back to their crash out state after. We highly recommend it for your pets.
Our experience with Gentian was excellent. We had our dog groomed b4 his stay at Gentian so he smelled and looked gorgeous, when we picked him up after 10 days stay, he looked and smelled exactly the same. All the equipment we sent him was washed and clean and Max looked happy and healthy. Staff were extremely friendly and supportive.
First time using a Pet Hotel versus Kennel. I drove 8 hrs back from Sheffield to pick up the dog. I was told to call ahead if picking him up on a different day. I called over 40 times and line busy!!!!!!. I arrived at Kennels and explained why not called ahead and said I'd wait in car whilst they got dog showered and ready. I was told dogs aren't bathed before return, I asked if I could use the outdoor shower facilities and told no, this was for the horses only. So after driving 8 hours solo, my first job after unpacking car was to bathe the dog. So I had to drive to local pet shop to use facilities as dog to heavy to use bath and no back access to house. Bedding was filthy and so was collar and lead. I would call to discuss my concerns but landline doesn't work! I was informed land line often goes down! Why wasn't I informed that phone is problematic. I was promised a FB video, no video ever posted. I have never had a dog returned from kennels without being washed prior to pick up. This is no hotel! I feel compelled to write a response to my review. There is no FB video of my dog on I've scrolled through to the 23rd April 2023. It's vital an owner can get hold of the place their dog stays, if you have problems with temperamental phone lines then let your customers know in advance. I've never heard of kennels not washing dogs on return. I understand you are upset by my post but I am upset. When I spoke about the phone lines to staff I didn't get an apology for the distress it caused me. It was just blamed on BT. Why couldn't I use the showers? In view of response I've changed review to 1 star
I was so nervous leaving our dogs in kennels for the first time , especially as one is quite anxious! They have come back to us their usual happy and bouncy selves. I won’t be so worried next time, the only place I will trust with my fur babies. Thankyou all staff for taking such good care of them.
Our 3 Dachshunds had an amazing time at Gentian Hill Pet Hotel. This was the first time that we’ve used a kennel, and the team there were fantastic and answered any questions or concerns that we had. One of our boys is super anxious, and needs medications for this - and this was no trouble at all. It was great seeing the Facebook updates, and seeing them really enjoy themselves. We’re super thankful for the team there, and will happily use them again.
On Eddie's behalf we would like to say a huge 'thank you🤗' to the staff at Gentian Hill, Eddie appeared a happy boy and we're so glad he was well cared for. The staff there are kind and obviously happy in their work, it shows! We loved watching the videos on the website whilst we were away. Once again thank you Gentian Hill. …
Gentian hill pet hotel has been a fantastic home from home for our boy. He's an XXL dog and they homed him in one of the biggest kennels. He had a paddock to roam free in and wasn't mixed with any other dog. Which wouldn't be a problem with him as he's friendly and socialised, however you don't want your dog being given a bad experience of meeting another dog when your not there. So this is fantastic for that. He was the happiest boy being dropped off and picked up. Smooth transition on both occasions. He will be returning many times going forward. They are fantastic!
Highly recommend this cattery, it is clean, comfortable and the staff really care about the animals they are looking after. Thank you for taking such good care of my pet while I was on holiday 💜 …
Just have stop to inspect as I'm looking for a cattery .like the pens and friendly staff Helpful .but at the moment can't coment .cat look well look after and pens clean and good size.
Always a great experience with Gentian. Had our cat in there multiple times and never had a problem. Great facility with amazing staff
