Beth and Matthew have been my first house sitters - and I was their first house sit too. Beth and Matthew have been great. I was a little nervous as this was the first time I've the zeewoi platform and service. Beth contacted me to let me know that one of my dogs had a sore on her chest and sent me a video to let me see and decide what to do. We agreed my dog needed to be seen by a vet and within a few hours my dog had antibiotics. Beth even popped into a shop to buy my dog a jumper to wear as the vet had recommended this to stop her scratching the sore. When I got home Beth had washed all their bedding and the house was clean and tidy. Both Beth and Matthew are a lovely couple and I would definitely recommend them both if you are looking for reliable and trustworthy house and pet sitters.
Erica was great! Easy to communicate with and very self -sufficient when we ended up being out of service for several days. Pingo and the house were clearly in good hands, we came back to a spotless house with a freshly made bed and a happy dog. We'd definitely have Erica again!
I am so grateful to Victoria for taking such wonderful care of my elder cats,, Zoe and Mischief, my home and my garden! She stayed in touch, and even sent photos of Zoe and Mischief, which further reassured me that my kitties and my home were in good hands while I was away. In short, I feel lucky to have connected with Victoria through zeewoi, wouldn't hesitate to call on her again, and recommend her without reservation.
This was my first time using zeewoi. Not only did I have to prepare my home for a guest but prepare myself for leaving my boys with someone I had only met through a zoom call. Right away, I was put at ease as Sharon just gravitated right to my boys. She asked questions about info that I had missed in my welcome pack that made me rest assured that she was on the ball. Throughout my trip, Sharon kept in touch with me about how the boys were getting along... I was so relieved hearing that their usual playful selves was apparent. Given that our flight home was going to be late, she insisted on waiting until we were heading out of the airport before leaving the boys with their last walk until we came home. When we walked through our front door, the boys were chilling out, our home was spotless, and she even washed the bedding. I can recommend Sharon with 100% certainty that your pets will be in great hands. Thanks Sharon for everything.
Jaclyn was a wonderful sitter for our dog Tucker! She was always quick to respond to communications, she was easy-going and excited to sit with Tucker, she shared updates (with pictures) while we were away, and she left our house cleaner than when we left - she even ran the dishwasher, which we forgot to do before we left! She and Tucker bonded immediately, and when we returned home it was clear that he had a great time with Jaclyn. We can't recommend her highly enough!
I can’t say enough good things about Felicia! She was willing to come over ahead of time so we could meet her. Lele took an instant liking to her (and I think it was mutual).😁 Felicia showed up on time, checked in on a regular basis while I was away, and sent photos of Lele, too. I tend to over prepare, and Felicia was accepting of that and helped me feel okay about my preparation and absence. I felt very comfortable leaving, knowing the most important thing, Lele, was well taken care of. This is my first time using zeewoi, so I didn’t really know what to expect. Felicia far exceeded all of my hopes and expectations. I would absolutely love to have Felicia come back again!
I am so glad that my cat, Duque, and I met Sharon! She is a wonderful person, very kind with pets, thorough with house care and communicative. Sharon's cleaning (and brownies!) went above and beyond and my cat did not seem to have missed me much when I got home. I recommend Sharon if she applies for your sit and we hope to welcome her back to our home one day.
Julie and Adrian were ideal pet and house sitters. Julie and Damian are very friendly and made sure to go over details and ask questions when they arrived. We came home to very happy and contented pets. Our dog and cat clearly got lots of love and attention (also clear from the great photos that Julie and Adrian sent us). The house was immaculate when we came home. We could not ask for better, more trusted, house sitters.
Although they are experienced pet sitters this was their first sit with zeewoi and they were wonderful. Jyoti (our cat) was completely at ease and spent plenty of time on their laps. The chickens were well looked after and they managed the broody one efficiently. Excellent communication before and during the house sit. They followed our detailed instructions conscientiously and left the house clean and tidy. They cooked a meal for us on our return and we enjoyed getting to know them. We would welcome them back any time and highly recommend them for future sits.
Lea was so wonderful, we highly recommend her. She was friendly and communicative throughout, sending us daily updates and photos. We returned back to a beautifully cleaned house and a very happy cat, we are so grateful- she was an absolute delight
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!
Golden Paws has been Logan’s favorite place for the past 4 years, and it’s easy to see why! Every time I pick him up, I practically have to convince him to come home—he loves it that much! A huge thank you to Sarah and Frank for all the love and care you give to Logan. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such great hands. I can’t recommend Golden Paws enough!
Sarah and Frank are truly amazing!! Our cockapoo Norman visits for day care and stays for holidays..his 4th year..it's his second home 🏡 We never worry as he is happy, cared for and has a fantastic time with the other dogs staying. He has made new friends for life. Sarah and Frank are very experienced, professional and care deeply for every dog in their care. Five star fabulous 🌟
Sarah & Frank are just the kindest. I’ve had trouble with feeding our cocker and they have given me invaluable advice. They also look after Barney like their own, sending updates when we are on holiday. I am so grateful that they took Barney. It’s his 2nd home & Barney loves it. Highly, highly recommended.
Sarah and Frank are fantastic and so supportive. They are a five star run family business and care for dogs and their owners more than you could ever imagine. They are Betty's second family. I cannot recommend highly enough. Vikki
Absolutely amazing! Sarah and Frank are very special people and I am so pleased I found them to look after my two fur babies. One of my dogs was very scared of other dogs, but they worked so hard with him and now he is great with all dogs even when we are out with him. It was so nice to be away and have peace of mind that the dogs were being well looked after and having lots of fun. The little videos we received whilst away were so lovely. I can’t recommend Golden Paws enough! Thank you xx Emma
Sarah and Frank LOVE dogs and Coco absolutely adores them and plays with all the dogs. I don’t worry because I know she is being well cared for
Our puppy has been going to Golden Paws for the last 4 months. From the first time I spoke with Sarah, I knew she was going to take such good care of him. With their guidance, we put together a plan to slowly introduce him to her (and Frank & Bear ) and build up confidence for all of us. Our puppy now knows when we are in their road and bounds up the door to see them and their other guests. We have built up our puppy’s time with them, increasing to overnight stays and we have now just picked him up from a week’s holiday with them. Sarah sends as many photos/videos as you would like and her love and care for the dogs is wonderful. Our puppy has had the best time with them and his friends. Nothing is too much trouble and we are so thankful for them.
Look no further for your dog sitting, sitter needs! I can't begin to describe how great Sarah and Frank where with our 1 year old rescued street dog. From the off, Sarah put my mind at rest that he would be in the best possible hands, and he was. Sarah and Frank could not have been kinder, not only to us but also with our pup, sending regular updates and treating him with love and patients in what could have easily become an overwhelming situation. Albie played well with the other dogs and slept soundly. We couldn't be more thankful to Sarah and Frank as we were able to go and enjoy a family wedding safe in the knowledge Albie was being well looked after. We aren't local to Essex but if we were we would use Golden Paws again - no question- as Albie was sad to go and leave his new found friends. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I'm so thankful for Pepper to of come to Golden Paws for a week's holiday 🐾 , they have been absolutely amazing ... They took amazing care of our puppy and her first ever holiday from us. We had daily pup updates , and she was a very well looked after happy puppy. Would 100% recommend and use in the future. Our puppy has grown confidence around other dogs now too which is amazing. Thank you Sarah & Frank amazing animal lovers, and can clearly see they adore every dog they look after.
I was so happy to find Golden Paws for my sometimes nervous chihuahua. Sarah and Frank have a wonderful way with animals and are truly caring. It definitely is a bespoke service and my chihuahua is being eased into being close to other dogs. Sarah sent me videos and messages to let me know how Billie was getting along and I could see in the videos how much progress he was making in this lovely calm and caring environment. I highly recommend Golden Paws and feel so lucky to have found them.
We left our puppy with Nicola and Andrea whilst we went abroad for a week. We could not have been happier with the service they have provided and the care and affection they have shown towards her -treating her as if she was their own. The daily updates are very reassuring and it’s lovely to see the photos and videos to show how much fun she was having with out us! We cannot recommend my best friend Chigwell highly enough and we will definitely be using them again in the future :)
Our Puppy loves Nicola!!, she is very professional and asked to see proof of vaccinations, micro chipping and in depth details of puppy during registration. She is flexible and reliable and takes him for lovely walks whilst he is with her. She is clearly very much a dog lover and loves your fur baby as much as you do. Nicola is fantastic at keeping me up to date with my dog throughout the day with pictures and videos. My puppy loves being with Nicola and comes home tried from all the fun he has with her. We are really pleased to have found Nicola and someone who loves our puppy as much as we do.
We had a fantastic time using the dog boarding service with Nicola. It was clear from speaking to her that she has great experience and knowledge about looking after dogs. As a first time customer our concerns and queries were put at ease with Nicola's professionalism and the continuous updates about our dog (including photos and videos). We also got updates on his eating, walks, playing and general well-being. We will certainly use the same great service in the future.
I cannot praise My Best Friend Chigwell enough - 5 stars doesn’t cover it! Nicola has been amazing with our dog and she looks forward to going everyday! I get photos from Nicola and updates on her day and is always able to help if I have a dog-related issues. Great prices for what you and your pup get! Cannot recommend enough!
Nicola took a very good care of my dog when she was boarding for over two weeks. I received daily updates, photos and videos and I could tell that my little girl was having great time. I even started to worry that she will not want to come back home. It was a very good value for money and I can definitely recommend Nicola.
I stumbled across this company via Google search . I decided to contact them solely due to the smiley person in the image on the website, Nicola got back to me the next day. Speaking to her I felt reassured that she was the right person to entrust the care of our dog to. I am very pleased with Nicola and Emma, they are professional caring warm and friendly. They are at ease with what the do and the dogs are at ease with them too. I have used them more often than what I originally intended as our 9 month dog looks like he gets great benefit of the enclosed walk that we book him in for , especially being a lockdown puppy !!
Our dog LOVES hearing Nicola come to take him for his daily walk- he runs to get her a toy and wags his tail in excitement. When we got him from a rescue centre he didn't even know how to play or what a toy was, so it's amazing to see him run to his toys to share. Nicola is very professional and asked to see proof of vaccinations and micro chipping etc. She is punctual and reliable and takes him for lovely walks in Fairlop Waters which he had never been to before. She is clearly very much a dog lover and is confident walking him even though he is the size of a bear :-) We are really pleased to have found Nicola.
Nicola is a very friendly, professional individual, when we first met with Nicola our puppy who was 3 months at the time took to Nicola straight away and we could see that she would feel very comfortable. Nicola is always happy to answer questions and provide advice. We trust Nicola completely and most importantly our Puppy feels at home with Nicola. We have used day services as well as overnight and Nicola always provides lovely video and photos of all the fun our puppy is having. You will find a second home using Nicola’s services. I highly recommend Nicola.
Where do I start!! My puppy has been going on walks with My Best Friends dogcare Chigwell for the past couple of months and I cannot be happier with the service and fundamentally the care and love they show Hugo! It started with walks in the morning and as of recent I’ve not been able to walk Hugo because of health reasons, so Nicola and Emma have been taking him for the whole day and he’s so happy with them on the walks and has clearly developed a bond with both Nicola and Emma. He waits at the door every morning for them to arrive!! The updates daily with photos and videos are amazing and assures you that your dog is in great hands! They’ve also been amazing support as I cannot walk Hugo at the moment. Nicola is so knowledgable on all aspects of dog care and is also on hand to offer the best advice ! Thank you so much! Xxx
My pup has been with Nicola since the beginning of 2020. I am so glad I found her as you can tell she loves the dogs in her care and treats them all as if they were her own. Every time she arrives at my door my dog goes mental with excitement. I feel totally relaxed and calm knowing my doggy is in great hands. It's perfect for him to socialise too with other dogs and he always come home tired and happy. If you're looking for someone to trust with looking after your doggo, where they will get cared for like it was her own, then Nicolas service is pawfect for you :)
I can't shout loud enough about how amazing Karly is, we have 4 cats that are inside cats only, one of which can get very poorly. Using Furry Flitchers has allowed us to go away on holidays and weekends away here and there. All the cats love her and are absolutely at ease with her, she's accommodated all our different feeding routines and even has been able to administer their medications. She is trully a phenomenal pet sitter. She updates regularly and she genuely cares for your pets and showers them with affection and play. Thank you so much Karly the cats and I absolutely adore you! 10 out of 10 recommend, if you are an anxious fur mummy
Toby has been going to Furry Flitchers for a few years now, for both day care and whenever we go on holiday. He absolutely loves it, he literally barges the door down to get in, and doesn’t want to leave! Karly is just brilliant, keeps you up to date with photos and videos. The dogs get lovely long country walks and its a home from home environment once in the house. I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough.
Our dog Ernie has a fantastic time every time he stays at Furry Flitchers. He has stayed numerous times over the past couple of years whenever we go on holiday. He is well cared for and very spoilt. He loves spending time playing with the owners dog, who is a gorgeous boy. They have such fun together and on their walks in the countryside. We are kept up to date with videos and photos throughout his stays. We can thoroughly recommend the service provided!
Karly, Ty & Rosie provide a home from home environment, our dog Ella can’t wait to get inside once the door opens. They provide lots of love cuddles and stimulation along with plenty of walks. Highly recommend Furry Flitchers for the exceptional care they provide.
Karly and her family looked after our anxious cockapoo for 2 nights, our dog (Rosie) absolutely loved it. She settled instantly (something she doesn’t normally do), was made to feel part of the family, given all the cuddles and love Rosie demanded! Plenty of walks! Couldn’t ask for more. Karly kept in touch with photos and videos so I knew Rosie was having a great time- I could completely relax on our mini-break knowing she was in brilliant hands.
After discovering my little Romanian rescue, Mikado has separation anxiety, I started looking for someone who could look after her so I could get some sort of normality back in my life whilst I continued with her training. I didn’t want her to go to one of these daycare’s where they take 20+ dogs, I wanted her to have quality 1 on 1 time with someone who understood SA. I then found Karly at Furry Flitchers! We had a meet and greet first of all at Karly’s house. Mikado met one of Karly’s regulars, Lexi, who is a lovely and calm natured dog which was perfect for Mikado. Karly ensures her dogs are well looked after in her care and pairs up dogs she thinks will be suitable for each other. I receive regular updates, loads of pictures and videos which is lovely to see! Mikado has settled really well with Karly and always comes home tired which is a huge plus! Thank you so much Karly, for doing such a great job and also allowing me to gain my life back and be able to do things I enjoy.
Highly recommend using Furry Flitchers. For nervous first time dog owners, we weren’t sure about leaving Bailey with anyone else. So many visits and various overnight stays later, Bailey is very excited when we pull up and enjoys his time with Karly and her family. Karly updates us throughout the day and that initial worry has completely disappeared. I know Bailey is in great hands.
My dog absolutely adores Karly and her family, and goes crazy for them whenever she sees them. They have been walking her since she was a puppy, she has always been well cared for and gets a great walk. You can tell Karly loves animals and takes pride when looking after other people’s pets, she is also very reliable and professional at all times. Highly recommended!
I have used the services of day car, overnight boarding and dog walking. Each time I am kept up to date of my minature labradoodle’s fun filled day. I love the videos, pictures and reports throughout the day. I cannot sing the praises of the services I have had for my dog Lexi. So much so, my dog tells me through her actions when she sees Karly. She’s so happy and it tells me all I need to know. I am reassured that she’s in good hands. I feel further assured with the training Karly has too. I won’t ever look back and I’m so glad I found Karly’s services.
Im so happy that I found furry flitchers locally to me I had a meet and greet with Karly to make sure she and Luna and myself were happy and liked each other and I’m happy to say we were, she is such a lovely friendly lady, with confidence, which she needs with my my crazy 1yr old boxer dog Luna, they get on very well thank goodness , I find furry flitchers very reliable, everytime Karly goes to my house on Mondays for a pop in to let Luna out she sends me updates with video and pictures and also when she comes back later in the afternoon to take her for a lovely long 90min walk I get regular updates with videos of her running around very happy. Karly is always happy to do things thats requested nothing seems to be too much trouble, and prices are very reasonable. She is now also taking her for walks on a Friday afternoons for me while I’m working late. I can’t wait until she gets the go ahead for the full day care for Luna she will be so happy. Thank you so much to Karly (furry flitchers) you saved my life 😊
This has to be the best decision for my dog, Luna, that I’ve made. Of course it takes courage to entrust one’s beloved pet with others, but Nikki and her team are fabulous. Luna is deaf so has her special needs! On meeting Nikki she was so keen to learn of Lunas little ways, so she and her team can truly meet her needs. Luna quickly fell in love with Bobbi, her usual walker, greeting her very happily and trotting off down the path with her. She comes back tired but very contented. The photos of her jaunt with Bobbi make it all worthwhile - see the photos of ‘during’ the walk and post walk! I have confidence in Nikki and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
More than happy with the care our dog gets from WLP Broomfield. Karen goes over and above to make sure our dog has the best time possible.
We Love Pets looked after my pets very well while we were on holiday in the summer. There was a comprehensive pre-visit to find out all about our pets and their needs. Our cat requires daily medication and they were happy and confident to administer this. They also took very good care of our rabbit and our rats with their dietary requirements. Every pet looked healthy and well looked after and the house was clean and tidy when we came home. Just all done very well, thank you very much. Would definitely recommend.
Nichola and her team, put the happiness and welfare of our pets before everything else. When our dog Yogi, didn’t get on well when we used the dog boarding service for the first time, he was brought home and a house sitter was put in place and at no extra cost to us. His happiness was all that mattered to Nichola. We highly recommend We Love Pets (because they do) and we won’t be trusting our pets with any other pet care company.
Due to a change in personal circumstance I needed help with walking my Labrador on days when I needed to work. Nichola and the team at welovepets Chelmsford were excellent, from an initial call to a meeting with my dog, the dog walkers are great, the dog loves her walks and I have the peace of mind she is ok while I’m at work. I come home to a calm well exercised dog. They are flexible, accommodating and communicate well. Would highly recommend
I have an anxious dog who is very nervous of new people but Alexandra put in a lot of time and effort with my dog and Bailey now absolutely loves Alexandra and loved spending time with her! Nichola kept me updated with photos whilst I was away so I felt very comforted knowing Bailey was being well looked after. Will 100% be using 'We love Pets' and Alexandra again! Thank you! :)
So glad that we found Nichola and the team! We needed someone to take our Pooch out for a few days and we felt completely comfortable trusting them with him. Rosco enjoyed his walks and we loved knowing that he was in safe hands. Would 100% recommend them.
Really happy with We Love Pets. Always on time, super flexible to our needs (even at short notice!) and our dog loves his pop in visits and walks with the team! I would recommend them to everyone!
I would like to thank Bobbi for taking Reggie on a couple of walks, I know he was a little nervous at first but he looked very happy once he was out. This was only a trial & unfortunately as I work in London, I didn’t like leaving him all day. There’s no doubt should I need a dog walker or someone just to pop in, We Are Pets will be the first people I contact.
Nichola was really accommodating and flexible when booking walks. Bobbi and Jade are both great with my dog and we’ve never had any issues. I would definitely recommend
Fantastic service. Loving home and brilliant care. Marley and Bobby will definitely be visiting again :-)
Great service. Thank you for helping at short notice.
Great welcome and lovely atmosphere.
Extremely happy with the service provided from Emma at Barking Mad. We have used the service twice so far and both times our Frenchie has come home happy after having a lovely holiday with a host family. We received regular updates from Emma whilst we were away with photos and Emma made sure that the host family knew every little detail about our quite high maintenance dog :D. We will 100% be using the service again for any holidays we go on as we will feel confident our dog is being looked after and having a lovely time being spoilt by another family. Thank you so much for making our holidays a lot less stressful!
Lovely service from Emma & Kevin at Barking Mad. Our dog appears to have had a lovely week away which is great. We got several updates throughout the week was was really nice. Would definitely recommend and will booking next years holiday with them soon ! Thanks Emma for a great service Laura
We have used Barking Mad on a number of occasions as an alternative to putting our Labrador into kennels. The service is superb with prompt pick up and return and the care and attention shown by all of their employees and carers has been excellent. Our Labrador always returns happy and healthy and we would highly recommend Barking Mad to other pet owners
Emma and her team are always very friendly, always very helpful and our Pooch is calm and happy when he is chauffeured home. We used to use a good kennel, but he was never as content and well looked after as he is now with Barking mad. Highly recommended.
We used Barking Mad recently for the first time and I couldn't recommend the service enough. The team were reliable, professional, provided updates throughout the stay and overall it represented superb value for money. We'll definitely be using the service again, when needed!
Barking Mad is a 1st class door to door personalised service. The ongoing contact while the pet was boarding was very reassuring. We would have no hesitation in recommending the organisation to any friends.
Our dogs Stan and olly are always very excited when Emma comes to collect them, they literally drag her out the door! This tells me that they know they are in for a good holiday! They always come back happy and tired, which is all we need to know that they have been looked after properly. Nic
1st Time of Using Barking Mad and very pleased with the host family Emma found. Can go on holiday knowing our Frenchie is going to have a fab time. Thanks Emma
This service is perfect for anyone who does not want to put their dog into a kennel,.
Excellent service. Friendly and Efficient. Merlin very happy. Definitely recommend.
I would highly recommend 5 Star kennels, I have a Newfoundland who has stayed there about 5 times in the last 2 years. He is always happy when he gets there and very pleased to see everyone and looks really well when we pick him up. I do not worry about him as I feel Kevin is very knowledgeable. We looked at many kennels before we found 5 Star and I am confident we have chosen the right one.
From dropping off our Doberman we knew we had made the right choice. He stayed with them for 12 days and come out happy with no weight loss like previous places we have tried. Kevin was a friendly and helpful and made us feel at ease. Happy to travel again that bit further knowing our fur baby is being well cared for.
This place used to be great but it has really changed over recent years. There are much better kennels around that will keep your pet safe and treat their loyal customers with dignity and respect. Really sad to see 5 star become 1 star.
Collected my dog this morning, the kennel girls were lovely but sadly I wasn't impressed by the place. It smelt really bad in the reception area alone. I have paid £60 deposit for his next visit but I am happy to lose it and never go there again . I have booked him in elsewhere. They charge 25p per tablet per day to administer as it takes extra time. Seriously!!!
Lovely caring kennels. Kevin is very understanding about our elderly dog's needs and nothing is too much trouble. The individual and personal attention shows. The place is calm and tranquil unlike some I have used in the past. Very much recommended.
Thank you so much to kevin Joan and the team for looking after my 2 Rotties so well while we were away. Couldn’t recommend you highly enough. Kennels are large clean and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for them they even took in my dog food delivery. Many thanks A******
We used 5 Star for the first time in June/July for a summer holiday as our usual kennels were full. I never like leaving our dog with a kennels but the owner of 5 star was very helpful, knowledgeable, accommodating and patient with us when we visited to view the kennels. We were very happy with the service and would happily use them again or recommend them to friends.
We had been looking for a new kennel since the owners of our previous one retired and finally we have found one we are very happy with. My two dogs came out happy and healthy and greeted the owner with with enthusiasm and confidence which speaks volumes! The 45 minute drive for us is worth the peace of mind..!! Thank you for looking after our dogs with such care and affection.
Pup loved her time here, made me feel confident I can go on trips and she would also have a mini holiday herself!
Left my 15 year old Jack Russell with 5 star for 2 weeks. First time I've used 5 star kennels - really impressed with the standard of service and my dog seemed happy too. Thanks!
