Leaving a 5 STAR review isn't high enough! They are MAGNIFICENT! DELIGHTFUL! CARING! WONDERFUL people!!! There are so many adjectives I could use to describe how LUCKY I was to have Beverly and Jimmy sit for me. The house was PERFECT when I arrived home. Ready for me to crawl into bed and recover from jet lag. BUT...my sweet Cats were beyond PERFECT! They were so loved while I was gone. Beverly sent me pictures and updates on them and how they were doing and adjusting to me being gone. And I can honestly say without any doubt that both of my kitties hardly knew I was gone. I have two cats with two entirely different personalities and BOTH of their needs were absolutely taken care of beyond what I expected. Beverly and Jimmy's intuitiveness to recognize each cats needs based on how they were acting and what they needed is more than I could've ever asked for. Even the mean, cranky, HISSING cat that hates people crawled on Beverly's lap which is short of a miracle!! All I can say to anyone deciding whether to choose Beverly and Jimmy as Sitters, is that my animals were so so so so HAPPY and LOVED! I have high maintenance cats that need medication's and even one that needs her bottom wiped after she goes potty. They need to be in bed and sleep with you and spoiled and treated like little toddlers that follow you around and that's exactly what they had 💯% while I was away. I was gone for 14 days and the communication before my trip, during and even after my trip as a follow up to make sure I got home safely and was home for the cats or if they needed to return due to airport delays etc. My air conditioner suddenly stopped working and they took care of it and I reimbursed them when I returned home. I could go on and on about how wonderful they are and can only say if your reading other reviews and deciding who to pick STOP! Beverly & Jimmy are the perfect people for you to choose and consider yourself lucky! I do! I feel like family was here in my home and when I got home I missed them and wished we could have hung out and I know my girls miss them too.
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!
Kellie came for home visits to our two cats while we were on holiday. She is professional and lovely to deal with. She clearly loves animals and we had total peace of mind leaving them in her care. She sent lots of pictures and videos and the communication was excellent. I highly recommend the service.
Absolutely amazing. We have indoor cats, chicken, rabbits, mice and fish. Kelly knew exactly what she was doing and was very knowledgeable, professionally and friendly. Was such a relief to find someone local with her experience and training. Will happily get Kelly's help again in the future and would be 100% happy to recommend to friend and family. Honestly can't rate Kelly highly enough.
Brilliant service. Remained flexible with our booking due to COVID restrictions with travel. Lots of pics and communication during the boarding period. Everything anyone would want from a boarding service. Will definitely be using again!
Very friendly, very professional, we use Kellie for all of our pet care, highly recommended.
Feb service
Trusted pet carers is truly a good find, the service and care they offer is amazing. I used them when I went away for 2 weeks and when I came back off holiday I found my spaniels Tanya & Tamsin to be well fed and well cared for – not wanting to come home! They get spoilt with attention.
I have to admit I was very anxious leaving our needy and separation anxiety prone Tibetan Terrier who also suffers with digestives issues for 12 days having never boarded at at a kennel before especially because we were going to be out at sea for the duration but having researched thorough we went with Difford. Having picked her up today I could see they have taken excellent care of her and that she had a great time - communication with Pippa before and during was also very good - I would highly recommend this as a very well run outfit that clearly care and knows how to look after our furry friends and ensure they come back happy, clean, in good health and ready to fit back into their home lie without any upheavals.
A change in Job has introduced a lot of business travel, Difford was the 3rd Kennel I have tried, and have now used 5 times for anything from 3 days to 2 weeks away. On the first visit, my dog was scared on arrival when he saw it was a Kennel, but since then, he simply greets the staff and goes in, he seems very well looked after, is happy and each stay works great. I also find the cost fairly good. I can highly recommend this Kennel, Pippa and her staff are friendly and clearly very capable. Another positive is that the location is a good distance from a major center, which means firework sounds are not a problem. Highly recommended.
Great customer / kennel experience. Would recommend and will be using Difford for my future kennel needs.
Our dogs were looked after well here. They come home smelling nice not like your usual kennel smell. Pippa and her team are very welcoming & understanding about our dogs routine & medication. Will definitely use the kennels again. :)
I cannot recommend Pippa and her amazing team highly enough. My dog Colin who is a very bouncy Vizsla has been coming here since he was a puppy and no matter if he is staying for day boarding or for 16 nights he’s always happy to go in and comes home in great condition and very happy. The team kindly gives me updates whilst he is there but I never have to worry about him.
Thank you agsin fot very hsppy dogs this weekend. Total sulking all the way home!. I have boarded our three dogs for over eight years with Pippa and her excellent team. You could not ask for a kennels with more attention. intelligence and love for the animals they look after. An excellent place to ask them to stay. Thank you.
Excellent value and friendly service. The dog loves the place.
Louis has stayed with Pippa and the team a number of times. He and we have always been made very welcome. As an older dog with a couple of medical issues he has needed a little bit of extra care and attention and we have been incredibly impressed with how well Louis has been on his return home. When we come to collect him he is obviously very happy in the company of the staff who are genuinely warm towards him and know him as an individual. He always comes home smelling 'fresh as a daisy'. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Diffords
Not so sure my cat enjoyed his stay but I know he was safe and very well cared for
Our dog millie became poorly while in the kennels with IBS most probably due to the stress of us leaving her. Pipa told us about the problem and asked us if she should take her to the vets we agreed best to get her checked out millie was only there for 2 day's and the attention she got was fantastic. Pipa phoned us several times to update us and to reassure us she was OK 5 STAR care thank you.
As first time pet and home owners, we were nervous about leaving both for Christmas but finding Jen and employing her services to look after our cat set our minds at ease. Jen is very easy to get along with, super friendly, flexible with timings and was instant friends with our cat Bonnie. We loved her daily updates and pictures with each visit and we would definitely use her services again. We would recommend her to anyone worried about leaving their pet at home; they will be well taken care of. Thank you Jen!
We have used Jen’s services on a number of occasions to look after our two cats, she has always been amazing which gives such peace of mind when we are away. Our kids also love getting to see the cats in the daily update photos from Jen… we would highly recommend Adore Pets!
Simply cannot recommend enough! My baby Titan loves Jen, and she even shuffled around timings so she could get to him a touch earlier, so his bathroom breaks lined up. I can go to work happy, knowing he will be lovingly looked after, for his lunchtime walks :)
So glad we found Jen as we can go away knowing our 2 cats are happy, safe and well looked after at home. She sends photo''s and videos which puts our daughters mind at rest when she misses them and we always come back to find all the mail picked up, the house secure and as we left it. She even extended one booking at short notice when we got the opportunity to extend our break by few extra days. Xx
Jen looked after my indoor bunnies, Molly and Boss while I was on holiday. I didn’t want to put them in a boarding facility, I wanted them to be cared for in their home. I hadn’t been on holiday because I didn’t want to leave them so I finally took the plunge and booked one and I found Adore Pets on line. I was very apprehensive about leaving them but after Jen took great care of them and sent me updates everyday, I am confident to go away on holiday again. Jen did a pre visit before I went away and she listened to how I wanted them taken care of. She did a fantastic job and I returned to my very happy bunnies. I would definitely recommend. Thanks so much Jen x
Jen is lovely and was great visiting my cat, to keep food and water topped up, and making a fuss of him while I was away for a couple of days. It was reassuring to know he was in safe hands after recently recovering from an op. Jen sent photos and updates too, I would definitely recommend her.
Jen has been looking after our 2 ragdoll cats for a few years now whilst we’re away. She’s brilliant and we wouldn’t use anyone else - our two babies are so well looked after in her care and we always look forward to her updates whilst away! ☺️
Jen has looked after our two bulldogs for almost a year now, she pops in Monday to Friday to let them out while we are at work. She plays with them and sends us daily updates to let us know how they are which puts both of our mind at ease. She is polite and professional and so lovely. I would HIGHLY recommend Jen to anyone looking for pet sitting services. You can tell how much she loves her job and the pets she looks after. She treats them all like they are her own. She is now part of our family and we are incredible lucky to have her looking after Marnie and Beau.
Thought I would just update my review of Jen and Adore Pets. We have lived in Andover for a couple of years now and use Jen every time we go away. The cats are still nervous but they come out for her and it is lovely that she sends the pictures so you can relax whilst away from your fur babies 😊. A very big 👍 …
Jen is lovely and was so great with my nervous cat! She sent me updates and pictures after visits which made me feel so much more at ease whilst I was away. Will 100% be using Adore pets again when we go away.
We have entrusted our beloved Jazz to Sam many times when we have been away and needed someone to care for her. We have never used a boarding kennels and wanted to find someone who would love Jazz as much as us and treat her as one of their own - and that was certainly Sam. Jazz has been welcomed into Sam's home and treated to wonderful daily walks with her own pooches and those that have been boarding or cared for at the same time. Sam is attentive to Jazz's needs, ensuring that she has been completely comfortable and safe and also reassured us throughout our absence by sending us regular photos, videos and updates. I would have absolutely zero hesitation in recommending Sam and her Home Boarding for Dogs. Believe me, your fur baby could not be in better hands.
Polly always enjoys her holidays with Sam - a real home from home experience. Lovely walks, treats and doggy friends. Sam is highly experienced and I trust her implicitly.
I collected my dog Jess from Sam today and was worried she wouldn't want to come home!! Jess spent the whole weekend being thoroughly spoiled and completely at ease with Sam and her 'family'. Sam sent me lots of pictures of Jess having a great time! I would definitely take Jess to Sam in the future as I know she will be well looked after.
Sam takes great care of our dog when he stays. Don't think he actually wants to leave!
Thank you
We cannot thank Laura and co enough for the great care they gave our dog so that we could enjoy a week away. We were kept up to date with pictures throughout the week and it was clear our darling dog was treated like one of their own. If you’re trying to find the right company to care for your dog, Trendy Dog Hotel is the place for you.
Great service i worked on the property doing the roof and fascia renavations and these dogs are treat like familly members and are very very happy dogs . Lovely people you woulding find anywhere better to leave your beloved pet
My Best Friend Dog Care in Andover, led by Danielle, offers truly exceptional service. Our working lab can sometimes be a handful, but Danielle cares for her wonderfully, ensuring all her needs are fully met. Danielle is fantastic with the dogs, maintains excellent control, and takes them on diverse and enriching walks using a well-equipped, dedicated dog van. These outings always leave our dog content and fulfilled. Additionally, the booking and payment systems are professional, user-friendly, and efficient. Highly recommended!
Our dog Domino is a very lively working cocker. He gets extremely excited every time he goes to mybestfriend in Andover for a stay as he has such a wonderful time playing with the other dogs. We use Danielle for all our boarding and are very happy to continue the relationship.
Danielle fitted us in at short notice and took really good care of our 7 month old puppy. He can be quite shy but we felt comfortable leaving him with Danielle and Graham and he had a great day playing with the other dogs. Thank you!
Absolutely lovely people and a pleasure to deal with! The service provided is very reasonably priced. I always feel confident leaving our young dog with Danielle and he is always so happy to go there. What a great find for us!
I’m so relieved and happy to find someone so reliable to walk my dog! My dog is so excited to greet Danielle when she picks her up for a dog walk and so calm and content when she returns home! ❤️
Was like dropping off my little baby off at first day at school, so was a little nervous. I had no need to be!!! I was updated with photos, showing all the fun he was having and new friends made. He came back VERY tired and happy!! 5 star service, will defo be using again!!!
Danielle made my dog feel at home and I felt confident that she was well looked after.
Amazing dog care my dog loves it and is always well well looked after they love dogs and it shows I would recommend them the service they provide is fantastic my dog is not small and full af beans and they do a fabulous job looking after him thank you from Henry and me
