Liz was fantastic! She took such great care of my dogs, taking them on daily walks and giving them lots of snuggles. She sent daily pictures, which I loved. She also took great care of my home. When I came home, it was spotless. She's a kind person, easy to talk to and get along with, and I loved having her here.
Norman was the easiest cat-sit I´ve done. He needed his food only in the morning and was able to take only small amounts of it, so he still had some food in the evening. Not being overweight. Especially in the morning and in the evening he is such a cute cuddler. Siri was extraordinary fast with answers. The kitchen was small but had everything I needed. The location couldn`t have been better to food and music. I would definitly sit here again!!!
Milton is such a sweetheart and very easy to care for! He loves to just hang out near you and feels at ease knowing someone is nearby. Taiss and Rob are very friendly and quick with communications. Their apartment is lovely and has great amenities. Location is superb with plenty of places to walk to. It was an excellent experience from beginning to end! Highly recommended sit.
I had a delightful stay at Mackenzie and Emily‘s home. It is in a very accessible location, nicely decorated, and very comfortable - the bed one of the best I’ve slept in! They kindly offered whatever food was in the fridge (although the restaurant, café, and grocery options are extensive in Oakland so I mainly brought food in). It was easy for me to accommodate their request to keep the countertops gluten-free, but something to note if you plan to really utilize the kitchen for cooking. Their two big dogs, Koda and Tate are such sweethearts…they love to chase balls in the backyard, curl up with you on the sofa, and are well trained not to bark much. And the cats are adorable - Finn being still very much kitten-like and hungry for affection, Raleigh waiting for quieter moments while Finn and the dogs are pre-occupied to sneak in her chance to cuddle. The set-up in and out of the the house to feed and take care of all the pets is very easy. The chickens have self-feed/water systems but enjoyed me taking some time each day to toss gluten-free bread crumbs which were left for that purpose. They even have a Roomba automatic floor vacuum, which was super handy to keep the place tidy. Mackenzie was easy to communicate with both prior to, and during my stay, and I would gladly return again - and recommend this pet-sit to others.
Taking care for Baloo and Olivia was the best experience for us!! We are so thankful for Valerias hospitality and her openness towards us. She and her family welcomed as to their home with open arms. They took their time to show us everything within the house, the dog's routine and the area around. The communication was really good as well. We felt felt pretty much at home during our sit. We named Baloo the 'gentle giant'. He is really big but soo sweet, calm and loving. Olivia is as sweetheart! In the beginning she'll act a little bit reserved towards you but after some (rather short) time she'll be this happy little crazy bouncyball. She gets really affectionate and loves to cuddle and play with you. Also, it was really hot during our sit but AC did it's job ;) We will a 100% recommend this sit! 🥰🙏🏼 PS: If you wish to explore Rome further, just keep in mind that busses are not always on time aka sometimes don't approach at all. Therefore, we sometimes needed 1.5 hours to get to the city center. We still found it manageable, but just that you know.. ;)
A wonderful very welcoming young family with wonderful cats. Good communication and reactivity. Clean and tidy house. Quite and comfortable place. We felt home immediately and the cats were very playful, vivid and curious. Independent they liked to observe everything everywhere. They are not lapcats but need to feel you around and your body nights, at their ease. They are easygoing, fine and sensitive. Two different characters, both tender and funny, not aggressive and not fussy house-cat. They need and love each other very much, but they like your attention as so much. Very “cat” for people who have experience, love and respect feline nature. I already miss these two deep and expressive souls, my two little deep grey buddies.:-) it has Ben a very nice stay and experience.
I had such a delightful sit with Maggie and Oliver! They both welcomed me at the door. Maggie is a sweetheart and Oliver is spunky, both made my time in Raleigh well spent with their unique personalities. Amy's Welcome Guide was very thorough and exact which allowed for a smooth stay. She communicated with me throughout which I appreciated. Thank you so much for the opportunity to sit with your sweet babies in your beautiful home and awesome neighborhood. I highly recommend this sit for a great experience with Maggie and Oliver in an awesome area!

We were looking for a reliable, friendly and flexible kennel for our dog. He had spent the odd night away before boarding with Annette, but never any extended period. Annette put our minds at rest and our dog now looks forward to his holidays with her. We get regular updates and any questions are always answered promptly. Having researched the area, the prices are incredibly reasonable. As a family, we highly recommend Hairy Holidays as a safe, reliable and comfortable kennel for dog lovers!
It has been our Dogs second stay at Hairy Holidays and he absolutely loves it! 💙 Annette is lovely, great fun and very friendly. Our Dog remembered her and was so excited to see her and covered her in licks when we arrived! It’s lovely to see him running free in the garden and playing with the other dogs! It’s a beautiful location with plenty of space for the Dogs and we know that our boy is in safe hands with Annette.
We could not recommend Annette/Hairy Holidays highly enough. Annette really understands dogs and runs a very homely kennels in a great location with loads of fields to exercise in. Desmond dog has stayed there many times and definitely now considers it a dog holiday. He recognises Annette immediately and realises it's a home from home.🐾🐾
My dog visits here for day boarding, nights, weekenders and long stays over 4 weeks. He loves it and the fantastic activities and moorland walks he gets whilst in their care. Anette is his Exmoor mum and she keeps him in line! She sends you regular updates on long stays so that you know your dog is well cared for. Day care can be with 8-12 other dogs. They also have kennels. Overnight home boarding is in their home with their family and dogs (friendly working Cockers). My dog isn't the best at socialising yet he does really well from his visits to Hairy Holidays.
Annette was so helpful when we needed to board our dog Murphy last summer…every local kennel or sitter was sadly unavailable and so on our 13th try (lucky for us) Annette came to the rescue. She even offered to come & collect him when our travel arrangements made it difficult for us to drop him off. We are so grateful to Annette for being so accommodating despite being busy herself with a family wedding. Murphy had the best time - in such a beautiful setting too - running about the garden and in the fields with the other dogs. Can’t recommend this kennels & the proprietors highly enough.
Our 6 month old pup stayed at Hairy Holidays and loved it! Annette was brilliant with him and he obviously loved her and the other dogs. She took the time to send us photos and a message, mid-stay, to let us know how he was doing. We would highly recommend Hairy Holidays to anyone. Thanks Annette. 😊 …
We are so happy we found Hairy Holidays. From the beginning Annette was friendly, approachable and professional . whilst we were away we received updates and pictures of our girl out on walks enjoying herself, assuring us all was well. The weather was so bad whilst we were on holiday that Annette took her into her home and she was settled and cared for. What more could you want to know, that your pet is happy and well looked after whilst you are away. 5 stars from us.
We are a retired couple with a young, very energetic, Labrador Cross. We like to take lengthy holidays and need kennels that we can trust to, not only look after our dog but also give him the exercise that he needs. Annette is clearly a passionate dog lover and, critically for us, she takes them all out every day for long runs over Exmoor or down to the beach. Our dog clearly loves being in these kennels and comes home in excellent health, happy and well exercised. We are delighted to have found such a caring environment for our dog and thoroughly recommend these kennels.
I don't know where to start with the compliments for Hairy Holidays, Annette (the Owner) is superb, she helped us at the 11th hour with our dog who was unexpectedly in season, if it wasn't for Annette, we would of had to of cancelled our holiday in North Devon. Annette's Kennels are like brand new, very clean and tidy, she has a large garden for the dogs to run about in and also has about 8 acres of land down the road for the dogs to play together in. Our dog had an amazing time and it was also an amazing price. If we ever holiday in Devon again, my dog will definitely be staying with Hairy Holidays even if its an hour or 2 out of our way. Many Thanks Annette.
Thank you Annette @ Hairy Dogs for the amazing holiday our 2 girls recently enjoyed. Lots of walks, lots of play and interaction with other dogs and lots of attention all within a home from home environment.
I went there to a nice person and they gave me a splendid massage
Thank you for the 5 star review Kevin - we really appreciate it!
I have known Kim since she was very small, and her loving caring nature makes her the perfect choice, I have complete trust and confidence in her ability to care for your furry friends. Wishing you all the best in your new business adventure 😍😍xxx
I gave my Bichon a doggy care day with Kim. He was very happy there. He had 2 walks and lots of love and cuddles. I have booked him in again next week.. Thanks Kim..
Cookie enjoys going! Great service!
Will only board dogs that have been spade or neutered. Very disappointed as told ot was a legal requirement. It is not required but is recommended.
Dogs are so happy. So many wagging tails x x x
