Kathleen and John are the most wonderful sitters. Rusty took to Kathleen immediately and I could tell that she absolutely loves cats. She sent me photos and news daily and even audio recordings of him purring , which I wasn't expecting at all. They left the house spotless and even a meal in the fridge for our late return, which was above and beyond "the call of duty". They also made sure our plants were watered , which was an added extra benefit for us. I had complete trust in them. They are very warm people and we have already booked them for some future sits before they get snapped up by somebody else. Thank you so much, Kathleen and John.
Jessie was soooo lovely. We could tell from the moment we met her that she was a gentle soul who would take great care of our critters. She handled Luna and Gaspar super well and they were chill when we got home meaning we know they got good love. She also handled everything without needing much info to go off of. Would love to have Jessie again.

I can't recommend Mandi enough! She took exceptional care of our two Sphynx cats, who absolutely love her. It’s the third time that she looked after our boys we could not appreciate more her services. From the moment we met her, it was clear she was committed and passionate and professional about her work. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. We received regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. If you need someone who genuinely loves and understands cats, Mandi is the perfect choice. He Our cats can't wait to see her again! Many thanks for doing this brilliant job! You are a star!
What a wonderful service, came twice a day to feed my fur babies, spending longer than the agreed 20 mins. I think Mandi fell in love with Bertie, my younger cat, and I received daily photos and the occasional video. Would I ask her to come again? In a heartbeat, if you're looking for a reliable catsitter look no further
Mandi has looked after my cat, Cosmo, on a number of occasions. Initially, I was looking for someone to look after him as a 'one off' situation because I couldn't get a friend to help out, but I've since decided to always go back to Mandi. Mr Cosmo is a very nervous boy and he generally hides away whenever anyone steps into my apartment. Mandi realised that he needed a gentler approach and miraculously, she manages to get him to come out for pets every time she looks after him. Clearly she can read animals very well. The best part is the daily updates/pictures/videos that put me totally at ease so I can enjoy my trip. Fabulous service and a lovely lady to work with. Cosmo and I will most certainly be back!
**SAFE PAIR OF HANDS - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED** What an absolute gem Mandi is. We were very wary of using a new person after a bad experience with a different sitter a few years ago. Mandi went out of her way to reassure us and took impeccable care of our cat, sending daily updates and offering suggestions on how she could help our little anxious fur ball while we were away. Her love of animals shines through, and our very aloof (rescue) cat instantly warmed to her.
"EXCELLENT dog walker“ 🐾 My dog Hector is a very energetic 2 year old Labrador and he loves going out for walks with Mandi. When he hears her car outside the house he bounces around excitedly at the front door waiting to see her. We first met Mandi nearly in May 2023 and Hector instantly felt comfortable in her company. I was so happy when Mandi agreed to add him to her weekly schedule as he is much bigger than most of Mandi’s regular 4 legged friends, but she got to know him and built up a super rapport with him and he’s very attentive to her commands and communication and very well behaved and obedient on her walks with other dogs too. Initially Mandi came for a few weeks to give Hector ‘comfort breaks’ as he had recently had live inoculations and couldn’t mix with other dogs. He was stimulated with toys and games and very much enjoyed the treats (which are high value and nutritious) as rewards, as all Labradors do love their food! Once he could mix again Mandi was careful to pair him with her other charges as Hector was nearly 2 feet tall by then and very bouncy. Mandi is totally trustworthy (we feel confident that she holds house keys to take care of Hector whilst we are out) diligent, conscientious and very caring with all the animals she takes into her care and her gentle and ‘firm but kind’ tone of voice and body language reflect these qualities too helping the dogs to feel at ease and strengthens the bond which Mandi has with them. Hector has a weekly walk with Mandi and comes back after having a full hour out (sometimes a little longer too) very tired and sleeps soundly afterwards. We got regular updates via text message also videos in the early walks which ensured us that ‘all was well’ and that Hector was safe and having lots of fun on the many different walks and surroundings Mandi would go. I regularly request extra walks and Mandi always manages to fit us into her busy schedules which helps us very much, and letting us know the day before what time she will arrive, so accommodating! I would definitely happily recommend her services to anyone she is responsible, reliable and very trustworthy and loves animals deeply, also with her great experience coupled with an extensive wealth of dog behavioural knowledge, Mandi gives me total confidence that Hector is in ‘great hands’ and is extremely well looked after, which is so reassuring. Big thanks Mandi for all your valuable help and care, Jay Johnson & Hector 🐾
I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional care my beloved cats received from Mandi while I was away. Not only did she provide an outstanding service, but she also went above and beyond by sending me multiple heartwarming pictures of my two playful sphynx cats, which instantly put my mind at ease. Her dedication and genuine love for animals shone through in every interaction. The peace of mind I felt knowing that my cats were in such capable and caring hands was truly priceless. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mandi to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pets. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for her wonderful services in the future!
Mandi’s been great, we never have to worry knowing she is going round. Very reliable and always gives detailed updates with pictures!! Our cats are so much happier with Mandi coming round rather than them going into a cattery.
Mandi has been absolutely fantastic as a cat sitter. My cats are typically quite shy around people but they've really warmed to her in a short time. Mandi is always very reliable and sends me updates and pictures regularly, letting me know how everything is getting on which is always appreciated. It's always super easy to arrange cat sitting with Mandi and her communications help take the stress out of leaving the cats alone, highly recommended and thank you!
Mandi has been great, she has looked after my pets and provided excellent service, sent updates and photos regularly and was a delight to talk about her pets diets and how I can improve my own pets diets. I would highly recommend Mandi's services to anyone
You instantly feel comfortable with Mandi and we are so happy we found her as a cat sitter. We get photos and updates on how the cats are doing which are much appreciated! Our cats can be shy, however love it when Mandi comes round! Would recommend to anyone!
Thanks for looking after my little Roxy Juliet appreciate it A* :)
Hi Neal During these difficult times I am saddened that someone who hasn’t used me has left a three star review I would appreciate your response/removal straight away Kind regards Juliet Aussie Dog Care
Suki and Edwin are hands down the best pet sitters in Manchester! They took care of my dog, Fay Fay (a very picky boy), for two weeks, and I couldn't be more grateful. From the start, they showed such genuine care and love for him, and it’s clear they both have a passion for animals. Fay Fay can be quite particular, especially with his food, but Suki takes special care of his diet, ensuring he's well-fed and content. They also take him out for walks and playtime, which he absolutely enjoys. Suki and Edwin’s own dog, Eevee, is so well-trained and gets along wonderfully with Fay Fay. It’s heartwarming to see how comfortable Fay Fay is around her, and it really shows how well Eevee is raised. One of the best parts is that they sent us photos and videos of Fay Fay every day during his two-week stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I really appreciate their professionalism, the daily updates, and their flexibility. I highly recommend Suki and Edwin to anyone looking for loving and reliable pet sitters! ❤️
Best dog sitter in Manchester! Suki is without a doubt a top tier dog sitter. She looked after our labradoodle reggie for just over a week and although reggie usually hates us going away, he had so much fun and was given 5 star attention and love throughout his stay. We were given regular updates everyday with pictures and videos. Reggie has quite a strict food regimen and Suki was so flexible and accommodated everything we asked. Reggie also has some medical issues and Suki was able to respond to these quickly and highly professionally, even administering difficult medication when needed. We feel like there’s no one more skilled and safe to leave your dog with than her. Could not recommend her services enough. Everything down to the smallest detail was tailored perfectly for Reggie’s stay. Thank you so much, we cannot thank you enough for going above and beyond for Reggie. And I’m sure he misses you all and Evee!
We brought our 4 months old Pomeranian boy to Suki’s place for boarding for a few days. Suki is very responsible and friendly. She kept updating us on how our boy did during the day. She also told us lots of useful information as we have never kept a dog before. Our boy has had his first walk out with Suki too. PS; Suki’s pet, Eevee is very gentle. She acts like a big sister taking care of my boy :)
Absolutely the BEST dog sitter I've ever had the pleasure of working with! This sitter wasn't just responsible and detail-oriented; they went above and beyond to keep me updated with countless videos and photos, showcasing my dog's daily activities and overall well-being while I was out of town. They adhered to a strict feeding schedule, ensured timely walks, and to my delight, there was a noticeable improvement in my dog's behavior. My dog didn't just return home in better physical health but also exhibited signs of improved mental wellness. The frequent updates provided a comforting window into my dog's day, allowing me to see their joyful moments and peaceful rest times, which truly eased my mind while I was away. I wholeheartedly recommend this sitter to anyone in need of an attentive and caring professional for their pet. Their commitment to my dog's care and happiness was evident, making them an invaluable partner in pet care.
They provide excellent care for my senior dog, and we trust them completely. When we travel, they send us regular updates with photos and videos. I highly recommend their pet sitting and boarding services to all my friends."
Excellent pet accompanying service. My cat need to be accompanied for 4 days during my trip away from Manchester. Thanks for Suki, she gives me a before trip advice and with good communication during my trip. I can keep track on my cat and Suki always send me pictures of my cat to cure my home sick. Thank you for being so kind to take well care to my little angel. Will definitely come back for the service!
The best dog sitter! I left my cocker spaniel for the first time for 2 weeks, so I was very nervous. We were sent lots of photos and videos every day, which made our holiday so much more enjoyable as we weren’t worried at all! He was very well looked after and they even helped train him in things we’ve been struggling to! He came back a much calmer and well behaved dog as well as us being given lots of useful information for us to better train him going forward. Their dog Eevee is so calm and patient with our dog, they got on so well! I will only use Pokepooch Pet Care for our future holidays.
Great dog boarding service we never had before. Suki is a warm and experienced person, flexible for our needs. And taking good care of my puppy Roxy. Everything they do is much appreciated.
Wonderful stay. They took excellent care of our dogs, happy and safe environment. Suki keeps me updated all the time and I felt so relieved. Highly recommended!
Amazing Dog Sitter!! Cooper had a wonderful time, had a very long walks, lot of play time and rest. Very responsable, attentive and always reliable.
Cozeee corner are fantastic. They send regular pictures and videos of our dog, they give an excellent service for dogs including a large dog friendly and secure garden, paddling pool for warm days, raised day bed, a fan to keep your dog(s) cool and an air conditioned room. We are so happy to have found cozeee corner for our dog 🤩 …
Excellent home boarding for small dogs
Home from home for my two dogs.a very good run business lovely couple.
Absolutely amazing dog care service highly recommended
Really good visit
Mia is always looked after by Sue and her staff to the highest standard. I can go away and not worry as I know Mia is happy and content at chadkirk Cattery. Sue and Nikki are so kind and understanding that I feel Im leaving Mia with family and not at the cattery... I would highly recommend chadkirk cattery to anyone who wants to feel their pets will be treated as a family pet and will be extremely well looked after during their stay with Sue and Nikki and not forgetting Dan as well. Thank you all
Our cat stayed over this weekend and Shelly and the team were brilliant. They were so caring and lovely, and they got him settled into his new environment wonderfully. Our cat loved looking out the window and the enclosure was nice and big. Shelly was so accommodating - will definitely be coming here again next time we go away!
Started coming here because my original kennel was fully booked for the days we needed and it ended up being a blessing in disguise. The staff are all so lovely and you can tell they genuinely love animals. I also think it's really good value for money esp as your dog also gets a walk and play time in the run each day. My little man has been twice now and is always happy. Would definitely recommend.
Great place my dogs loved it. They fitted them in at short notice due to a bereavement, i worried as the last kennels they hated. And what a beautiful place its in absolutely stunning. Thank you to all the staff there and i will definitely use them again and recommend highly
Highly recommend! My Golden Retriever stayed here for 8 nights. We booked him in for a full groom whilst he was boarding and he looks fantastic. Best groom he's ever had. Great staff, dogs are well looked after and for an afforable price! Thanks Lloyd and Chadkirk team. Maverick will defo be returning when we next go away :)
Excellent professional kennels who have looked after my two Jack Russell dogs for years. One of them now has Cushings Syndrome and they give her medication with a caring and committed attitude. If you want your dogs looked after while your on holiday. I would strongly recommend these kennels.
It's never easy leaving your dog in kennels, but the people at Chadkirk Boarding Kennels make it much easier. They are always so lovely, and our dog Tasha always gets excited when she sees the people. Great facilities, great location and most importantly, dog loving people.
Grooming studio the staff are lovely and we have one happy dog looking and smelling gorgeous again
Just picked our Siberian Husky up after 17 days. He looked great we can tell he's been well looked after and smells nice been here a few times now each time been great 5 * the lad who we dealt with was great to. Thanks Ossa & Family
Disgraceful company If you value your pet do NOT send them to this place if you expect them to come home safe/alive. Your animal will be neglected possibly killed and there will be ZERO remorse. AVOID.
Our Bones loved it ❤ very well looked after would highly recommend the cattery. Very friendly place and staff. Can not thank them enough x
Have taken my cat there quite a few times now and she has been well looked after. Would definitely use again.
Fantastic service are boy blue always comes out clean and happy used a few times naw well run well educated highly recommend
Our two daschunds lodged for a week over Christmas. They were in great shape when I collected them. They had obviously had a good time, been well cared for and looked after. For two very pampered dogs who had never been in a kennel I think that's a great accolade to all at Castle Croft.
Great kennels, my dog loves staying here and good priced as well.
Frank always comes home looking wet cared for.Staff all seems to be very caring
All looks fine online and on first sight nothing to worry... Sent my dog in happy and healthy bouncy beautiful weight (as was said by the vet 2 weeks prior) but yet my dog came out malnourished and nervous... Skin n bones is the term I would use... I wouldn't use these again in fact has now put us off using kennels all together... If I could put 0 stars I would
We've been regular customers of Ann & Andy at Castle Croft Kennels for the best part of 5 years now and leave our huskies with them every time we're on holiday. Our experience has always been fantastic, the facilities are spotless and they use the same premium pet food we buy which is a pleasant surprise - so we know the dogs are eating well whilst we're away. For us the biggest benefit is that both of our large dogs can comfortably occupy the same large kennel (which also have outside runs!) so we know whilst we're away they're still together. The peace of mind allows us to enjoy our holiday all the more and I could not recommend them highly enough.
We have used Castlecroft a few times now for our greyhound Billy and this really is a fantastic place. Ann and Andy take real care and interest in our dog and we feel at ease knowing he is being well looked after. Thank you so much your both a credit.
We have been boarding our cat with Castle Croft several times a year for about 8 years now. They treat him so well and he always comes home well groomed and smelling wonderful. Would definitely recommend.
Kaylee is very professional and my guinea pigs were very happy and i recieved daily updates from her. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anybody.
Excellent service , was worried about leaving my pair of Rabbits and their babies but was really pleased with the care and daily updates.
Good prices and quality service Really looked after my little dog well and she loved going for a walk with kayl we Very happy with the service 👍🏻
John chaperoned our Shiba Inu, Yoshi, at our wedding and he was really fantastic. He was really great with Yoshi who can sometimes make strange to new people, and immediately put him at ease. John accommodated all our requests - allowing Yoshi to be there at our first look before moving to the wedding venue, releasing him as ring bearer during the ceremony, staying our for the drinks reception so he could be in the photos and then looking after him overnight. We were able to enjoy our day and have our dog be part of it without worrying about it. We would recommend this service 100%.
I had a rather overgrown lawn, that was hiding a multitude of toys and also, well alot of deposits from 3 dogs. It was a bit of a task to wade through the "meadow" but John came to the rescue, after a few hours and many poo bags later and a spray of disinfectant (i think) it is no longer a minefield of poo. The dogs have found alot of there old toys, and are happy too. After this mamouth task i am happy to book regular visits from John who was very nice and Pedro amd Nellie greeted him with a cha-cha-cha wiggle and a bark. Thanks so much.
Love Scamps and Champs! We’ve been customers for a while now and all of my dogs have loved their walkers. Lesley is very accommodating and our old walker (Phil) was fab but retired. Our new walker (Stef) is amazing! Our Cavalier absolutely loves her!
We have used Scamps & Champs for over 6 years since we got our dog, Dougie. Every dog walker who has walked him has been professional, kind and caring. Dougie gets to walk and socialise with other dogs and loves all of the walkers but especially Jackie, who is his regular walker. We've also used the boarding service which is second to none. The online service is easy to use and allows flexibility to schedule and cancel walks as necessary. I would recommend the company to anyone (actually I did - my sister in law also uses them and loves them!)
Our dog Harry stayed with Bob for a week while we were away. We could not have asked for better care, Bob committed his week entirely to caring for Harry, giving him 2 good walks daily and sending us updates at least once a day. It was really reassuring to know he was being so well cared for. Already booked again for September. Thanks Bob and Scamps & Champs, see you again soon 😊
John and Jess chaperoned our 2 dogs during our wedding this past Saturday. What can I say? They were fantastic. Chip, our male dog is a good boy but Lola has separation anxiety from myself and was a little bit naughty on the day but John handled her perfectly. I felt at ease that my two babies were in great hands. Thank you both. We highly recommend you!! Mr & Mrs Johnson
Good response times to emails and my queries. So far they‘ve been able to accommodate all of my requests no matter how last minute. A really easy online service to use and it puts my mind at ease when I get a service report (including photo) whilst I’m away from home. I’ve already recommended Scamps & Champs to a number of my friends.
Scamps and Champs have walked my dog for over a year now and I am very happy with all aspects. From setting up the first contact, to scheduling the walks and the dog walkers are brilliant. They clearly love what they do and my dog is in very safe and friendly hands. Thank you so much x
Scamps and Champs have been brilliant in the almost 5 years that we have been with them. Lesley is so accommodating and flexible, and Bruce, our frenchie LOVES his walks with Steve, who is so friendly and reliable too. Thank you so much for continuing to be a brilliant help.
We use Scamps and Champs every time we go away for our cats. We love how easy it is to book. Our cats are well taken care of, and there are lots of pictures and communication when we are gone. I would highly recommend Scamps and Champs!
Many thanks for your 5-Star rating
