It was a great pleasure to meet Gressi, she is an absolute star a took care on my two cats and house in an excellent way. My cats loved her, she was extremely good at communicating every day, very organised, I felt I had left my cats in very safe hands. The house was left in immaculate condition, all laundry washed and folded. The litter box clean as well as everything else. I would love to have Gressi again, I strongly recommend her 100% I had many other Petsitter, Gressi stands out 👏👏
Judy and Paul were great housesitters for our two big dogs. They kept us up to date on how the boys were doing and we were completely able to relax knowing that they were in safe hands. They also kept my many plant pots from drying out (when it wasn’t raining!) and the house was clean and tidy when we got home. They were also very accommodating about arrival and departure times which made our holiday very easy. Our wolfhound was so excited to see us home, but is sad today as his new friends have gone. Our Labrador had lots of fun time too with Judy and Paul too and is wondering why I’m not throwing his frisbee at all times! Thank you both for all your hard work.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 19.99 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
We have just picked up our 2 jack Russells from gartcloss kennels first time boarding.. Absolutely amazing; they absolutely loved it; I couldn’t be happier with the care and treatment they received; very attentive staff; and caring and continuous updates on them just wow; I can not recommend this enough; I will definitely be booking here again; thank you sooo much xxx
We put our wee dog into the kennels for the first time last week and were worried about leaving him. After a chat with the owners we realised he would be fine and can tell he's has been extremely well looked after. Have already booked him in again and know he will be extremely well looked after.
We have just picked up our grey Harry from his two week holiday at Gartcloss kennels. We could not have asked for better care of him while we were away. He has come back happy with a lovely shiny coat. The kennels themselves are five star with a good indoor space and each dog having their own outdoor space too! Could not have found two better people to look after Harry. Me and my partner felt totally relaxed while we were away knowing Harry was being so well looked after, will definitely use them again!
I used Gartcloss Kennels for the first time and my little Truffles loved it. Andrea sent me continuous updates of Truffles throughout the day which was fantastic and it kept my mind at rest as this was the first time Truffles spent time away from home. When my husband picked her up he said that Truffles was so happy, excited and looked as if she had a fun day out. You can certainly see that Andrea and Pat are animal lovers and its just not a business. They are very flexible and will try their upmost to accommodate needs. The amount of land the dogs have to run around in is amazing, plus they offer other services too. Before I left Truffles at doggy day care, I visited Andrea and Pat and they were really welcoming and gave me all the time I needed to ask questions etc, I never felt that anything was too much for them. I also looked at the kennels/facilities which are fantastic. I certainly would use Gartcloss Kennels if I ever had to leave Truffles for a long length of time. Would I recommend them? Its a big fat YES!
Kaya appeared to have had a great experience in her 1st stay in kennels. Made loads of new doggy friends too. Kennels were clean, heated and appeared cosy. Regular updates from staff put my mind at rest, could see from the photos she was having a great time. Shell be back.
I have a lovely rescue statue, Begbie, she is terrified of getting her nails cut to the point that for over a year I have only attempted to have them done once. Then I saw this kennel popping up on my Facebook and I thought I’ll give it a go. What can I say! It was fantastic, they are flexible to your dogs needs, the facilities are simply stunning and their knowledge of dogs is invaluable. I got some advice on how to keep Begbie’s coat shinny 👌 Definitely a hidden gem, absolutely recommend this kennels and would most definitely will come back!! 🙌💕🐶
Had my sharp ie in for a week or so on a few occasions when @ work. Attention to detail dogs get is class 👌 …
Spotless new built kennels. Fussy when it comes to leaving my dogs with othets but absolutely no qualms here. Ideal.
Our dog loves going to doggy Daycare. Staff and owners are fantastic
If anyone are look g to get there dogs looked after this is a first class kennels and the people are such a pleasure to deal with.
Lyndsay has been walking my two dogs for nearly two years - they absolutely love their walks and spending time with her. They enjoy their sleepovers while we are away - they always come back absolutely pooped. They have become a lot more social and playful since spending time with her. I trust her completely with my fur kids, and I know she treats them like her own dogs.
My dogs love staying at Hotel hounds. Lynsay is a fantastic Alpha to her dog walking pack and when my dogs have boarder, it's been home from home. I noticed she is good at looking out for health issues and giving advice about all things doggy. Will never use anyone else for my fur babies.
We have tried a few places to look after our Hungarian Vizsla Kevin, we found him to be a wee bit withdrawn on returning, however when Lyndsay looked after him he was neither up nor down, we could just tell he had a great time and was very comfortable, which totally alleviates all the dog mum guilt! Thank you Lyndsay
Willow has been going out for walks with lynsay for 2 years + she is so lovely and willow loves her, Alex and all of her other walking buddies. Willow spent 2 weeks with lynsay when I was on holiday and I didn't need to worry about her because her and willow love each other much. I would highly recommend
I’ve had the good fortune to have found Lynzz Burns, the owner of this business, Hotel Hounds/ Whistle While You Walk, serendipitously, in 2021. I can honestly say, she is FANTASTIC! Very confident with the dogs who are lucky enough to come into her care. Like most people, I would not leave my babies with just anyone and Lynzz isn’t just anyone. I have two rescue dogs who are like chalk and cheese. I visited Lynzz’ home on a few occasions with my dogs to watch how she interacted with them after I explained about their issues. Minerva is deaf and terrified of her own shadow. Vito is a tough nut who just wants to fight. These two dogs (and I worried about how they would be) made me look stupid! They settled brilliantly and Lynzz sent photos and videos EVERY DAY for the ten days I was on holiday. On collecting them, they were glad to see me but ran between myself and Lynzz for a good few minutes before deciding to come home with me! A very calm and knowledgeable lady. Careful, compassionate and takes on board what you tell her about your animals. My two are booked in for 29th August this year AND for next May and September, 2022. I am completely trusting and soooo comfortable leaving my beloved dogs with her. Don’t hesitate to book because honestly, I cannot fault this lady in any way. Her home is their home. Beds, sofas and chairs included!!! 💜🌺💜
Absolutely amazing, my dog Luna attends Monday to Friday and it’s massive improved her social skills as she’s not so nervous and timid meeting new people and dogs 🥰 …
Mylo really enjoys boarding at Lindsay’s when I’m away Lindsay is just amazing with dogs. She loves them all and is very caring. The photos she takes puts your mind at rest knowing he’s happy and being well looked after.
What can I say, Lyns looks after your dogs like they are her own dogs, she loves and cares for them like you do and they love it. Brody has stayed a few times now with Lyns and he loves going with her every Thursday, the smile on his face when he goes and comes back says how much love and care she gives to the big man. Would highly recommend her.
My boy Stanley just loves his walks and loves lynzz - home boarding is no problem ever and I never worry that he is loved and cared for - updated with pics on each and every walk and regularly while boarding - and if anything he want to stay as he is so spoiled - he comes home for a rest - thank you. - don’t know what I would do without you - x allison
I would just like to say a massive thank you for taking care of our girl and treating her like your own. She was well looked after and Angela gave us an update every day. Thank you again x
Our golden retriever Skye absolutely loves visiting for doggy day care as well as boarding. We can’t thank all the team at off the leash enough as everyone is amazing and makes us so much happier knowing Skye is enjoying her visits and well cared for.
Great place to leave you dogs! Fantastic staff who really care for the animals. Our girl loves it there 🙂 …
My Duchess has been going here since a puppy,it's her second home she just loves it and everyone in there it's a family extension ❤️ she is treated like there own beloved pets and her excitement shows on every visit.she also has boarded it there overnight,9 nights was her first after a wee night trial again she loved it ❤️ thankyou everyone at off leash especially Rory Abigail and Sharon n Sean ❤️
Can't recommend enough we put our 14-week Cockapoo in, She is now 8 months and is great with other dogs Every picture tells a story Sharon arrived with her dog today poppy left me and merrily joined them for a day in daycare not giving me a second glance
Wonderful care from all the team! We’ve been taking our miniature dachshund since she was 13 weeks old and she absolutely loves daycare. We were anxious to bring her to daycare initially because she was so small in size - but the team reassured us, there’s a whole area dedicated to puppies! She’s got a great nature round about other dogs and we thank daycare greatly for this! Fantastic team 🐶
Dogs had a great time running around exploring and playing and Sharon was lovely to deal with and even gave us out first visit free of charge. Will definitely be back.
My dog loves this place and we love the service. Everyone is always friendly and they care about Shadow (dog).
Coco enjoyed her 2 day stay here Very secure and added a GPS tracker for additional safety
Excellent place for your dog,very caring dog loving staff
We love the set up it's very welcoming and safe for all the dogs to run around and play.
Riley has been going here for almost a year now and he absolutely loves it!! Pauline is fantastic always get a full update when picking him up. Xmas party for the doggies and owners was a brilliant day. Can't recommend enough. Wish I could give 10 stars. Xx
Used scooby day care for 1st time today and was well impressed. Pauline kept us up to date with our dogs progress on his first day. Shall be using again tomorrow. Our labrador had great fun.
Absolutely first class. Been taking my dog here for years and can't fault them. They go all out to help you whenever they can. Even pulled my car out of the snow! My dog had to stay overnight as I couldn't get there due to bad weather and didn't even charge me. Exceptional.
Wouldn't take my dog anywhere else, Pauline is fantastic! :)
Great dog day care place, lovely staff and my dog loves the place, keen to get in there everytime and you can't ask for more than that
Alison has been wonderful looking after our 2 dogs these last few days. She is very professional and we had no worries leaving our boys (one with medical needs) in her care. She ensured their routine was followed and we came home each day to happy boys. We'd definitely use Alison again.
Alison is fantastic with our 2 boys. She will ensure the routine and things we do are followed when looking after them. We always relax knowing that Alison is looking after them and they are cared for 100%
Alison has a passion for all animals especially dogs. Treats them as her own. Would highly recommend.
5 star service from Alison as always. She is fantastic with Luna the frenchie I wouldn’t go anywhere else for pet care ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My boy has been going weekly to daycare for almost a year and absolutely loves it. He gets particularly excited when he sees his Uncle CJ. He’s a big guy and still just a puppy but he’s made very welcome. They are well experienced in big breeds and it’s so unusual for them to be made welcome in the daycare environment. He’s well cared for and any concerns about him have been raised in a timely conscientious manner. I’d highly recommend Bedlay!
My dog Betty has now been attending Doggy Day Care for the last few months 3 days a week. She absolutely loves it . Staff are amazing and she gets to play with other dogs which has really improved her behaviour. Great place. Would highly recommend.
Amazing place. My dog has been going to daycare twice a week for the past 18months and she has a great time. Very well looked after, staff have got to know her so well and staff are very attentive when I pick her up and always give me an update on her day has went. They really helped me out last year when I booked my dog in for home boarding with them and she went into season so one of the excellent staff members very kindly looked after her at his own home with his dog and she has a great time.. Definitely recommend for your dogs.
I have a small rescue that is a very adept escapee, so finding a place that is secure was essential, as was going somewhere other than a plain field to enrich her experience of being off lead. Bedlay First Walk fulfilled all my criteria and more. With mature trees and shrubbery, it is great for dogs, with fresh water available ...and even seats for dog owners. It is such a tranquil place! We've been twice now and intend another visit imminently. Can't recommend it highly enough.
Absolutely fantastic boarding and daycare. My own dog has been attending now for daycare and boarding for 5-6 months and they are simply wonderful. The care they provide for both services is exceptional and we wouldn’t use anyone else. It takes a team of people to raise and nurture a dog and I’m so glad we found them.
We did home boarding for our little Luna Cavapoo and she clearly settled in well. We were worried that we may have issues when we got her home. But absolutely not! she has settled back perfectly. Thank you to everyone for taking such great care of her. Thank you for the photos they were fab 👍 I would definitely recommend this amazing team of dog lovers 🐾
Fantastic place for dogs to holiday whilst you holiday. Our dog Shadow had the best time and was very well looked after. The pictures and videos sent made us feel at ease whilst away. Highly recommend - staff are amazing.
I’ve been using their boarding services for a few years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else, my dog Riley loves them and the place, they’re super friendly and you can tell they really care for all their dogs. I highly recommend it
I placed both my dogs here for 2 weeks and my older dog who has a health condition was returned to me near death. I was lucky that she was picked up early by a family member. My other dog was shut in a room on her own away from the otber dogs when that family member picked her up too. She also has severe eye infection in both eyes. I will not be using this business again. Very unhappy at the condition of both my dogs. Needless to say I will never use them again.
Very timid gsd over weekend sent photos and updates as requested. Dont think pup enjoyed but is new to experience. Lovely clean grounds thank you for having him stay
Our dog Bonnie absolutely loves going out with Jess and all her puppy friends at BB's Buddies. Jess always keeps me up to date with the adventures Bonnie is on and has been really accommodating and flexible with changeable work schedules. I really love that Jess always goes to the bother of sharing photos of Bonnie out on her walks with us, it gives me real peace of mind that she is out having the time of her life! Couldn't recommend highly enough!
Juno absolutely loves her walks with Jessica and the BB Buddies team! We get sent lots of photos of her having fun with the rest of the pack which we love to see and knowing she is in safe hands. Juno always comes home tired as she’s had the chance to get a good run around and explore on the walks. BB Buddies has always been accommodating with our schedule and also keeps us up to date as to when Juno's dropped off. Thanks so much for looking after our Juno over the last year!
Jessica and Christina provide an amazing service! My dog absolutely loves them and always has a fab time. They take lots of photos so you can see what the dogs are up to, and they are very responsive with requests. I use their services on different days each week due to work requirements, and I have also used their home boarding service. I think my dog was sorry to come home!
Our dog has been out with Jess since she was a pup and loves going out with her and the pack every week, definitely her favourite day. Great to get updates and photos during the walks too.
Skye is always delighted to see jess & christina for her walks. She absolutely loves the girls and i would trust them with her life every day of the week. The bonus for me is the photos if she stays still long enough to get one taken.
Amazing dog walker! My dogs love going on walks with Jessica, jessica always updates me send me pictures and videos! This makes me less anxious when my dog is out as I know they are safe with Jessica!
BB Buddies have been absolutely amazing with our dog - he loves the walks and the girls so much! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting their dogs well looked after
Todd loves going on walks with Jessica, we just need to say her name and he runs to the door. Always great getting a few
