Iara was amazing! Pepper was super happy left with her and she left the house so clean and tidy on departure (probably cleaner than when we left). She was organised and responsive! Thank you, look forward to you sitting again ⭐️ 🤩
Jakub and Kornelia are the best house sitters you can wish for!!! They were in our house for 2 months (had been here already 2 times) but this time it was not without some challenges. The solar system wasn't working that good, we are replacing it right now, but unfortunately it happened when they were here. But they all worked it out super good to still have power by using the generator sometimes and never ever complained! Also we had a little kitten since 1 month when they came and they have been so gentle and sweet for her. Our older cat Pushkin was not that happy when we got this little one ... but they had given Pushkin a lot of walks (yes he likes that) and lots and lots of extra care. When we came back they were cuddling up together and totally happy. They went to the ved several times for little Lila and they were very patient, sweet and caring. Jakub and Kornelia are a very nice couple that definitely take their responsibilities and have their commitment to the animals, the house and the garden. It had been a very hot summer but the whole garden looked green and healthy. So you can imagine how dedicated Jakub has watered the plants. When we came home after a long and tiring trip, we were welcomed with self baked bread and lovely tapas. That is what you hope for ... So we can truly recommend Jakub and Kornelia in every way!! 5 stars!!!!
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!
Our dog has only been going to Patch’s for 5 months but he clearly loves it! He even knows the other dogs names when I say them to him! He cries at the front door when he’s waiting to go in. Regular updates to show how much fun he’s having & he always comes home absolutely shattered!! Sarah is really professional and is very flexible and helpful! We have only used daycare at the moment but would have no concerns using the boarding option if/when needed! It’s another home from a home for our little fur baby ❤️
Sarah has been incredible and I will be ever grateful to her. My French Bulldog, Martha Brown can be a bit funny around other dogs, but I’ve needed to find a day care for her, and up until meeting Sarah have not found one suitable. Instantly I had trust with Sarah and knew she’d be great with Martha and help socialise her with other dogs. Thank you Sarah. You have had an instant and positive impact on both Martha Brown’s life and my own. I will be ever grateful for you being willing to look after my dog and doing it in such a professional, confident and kind way. Thank you.
Wow, what can I say about Sarah who runs Patch's Day Care...she is amazing! I have been using Sarah's services for day care and holiday boarding for over 5 years. My three dogs receive home from home care with Sarah, a good routine, walkies, playtime and lots of love (also from her husband, Mike, who loves cuddles with the dogs. I can't recommend Sarah highly enough and all the dogs she has are lovely. Her paperwork is top notch and she is well respected in her trade, she's been doing it for over 20 years after all. Her Covid protocol is excellent with dogs getting anti-bac wiped down when they arrive and leave. All my three dogs love her!
Wow, what can I say about Sarah at Patch’s daycare & boarding! We had a very excitable but anxious, jack x beagle, who was starting to be a bit too bossy and stubborn for her own good so we asked Sarah to help us with some basic training and getting a routine into place to help with the issues our Bella was having. She is now a different dog who is enjoying her life to the full as she should! Bella had some attention seeking behaviours such as pawing, scratching and snatching food and other things however under Sarah’s guidance, this has improved massively and Bella is so much calmer and happier. Sarah also worked with us to stop Bella jumping up and making a huge fuss when we would come home and she now greets us with a lovely waggy tail and sit. We never thought we’d be able to have her off lead due to her high prey drive however we can now walk her off lead quite happily with no issues. Sarah also helped us as a family to gain confidence and trust in Bella to let her show us what she needs and have her off lead. Sarah’s training methods are all about rewarding positive behaviours and Bella absolutely loved training with her as Sarah has such a friendly and kind demeanour about her. We would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone who thinks their dog needs a bit of training as she has been absolutely amazing and changed Bellas’ life for the better. Thank you so much Sarah, we have noticed Bella is so much more confident and happy and it’s made the world of difference. Chris, Bella & Family x
Stanley started with Sarah this week, he came home tired and happy. I was able to go to work and not worry about him. Thank you Sarah, a first class service.
I cannot recommend highly enough. It is such a comfort to know my 11 month old dog is having fun when I am working. She loves going to Sarah.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah as a trainer! We were told about Sarah by our vets who were aware of some of the behavioural issues we had with our Jack Russell x rescue. From the first contact I had with Sarah over email, to the last session and follow up emails, Sarah was very patient, professional and encouraging. Our dog Jack bonded straight away with Sarah, and would quire often choose to sit by her feet during our sessions! One of the receptionists at our vets said to me, ‘what Sarah doesn’t know about dogs isn’t worth knowing,’ and I can 100% say this is true! Sarah not only gave us advice about Jack’s behaviour, she was also able to talk to us about calming remedies and nutritional ideas that myself and my husband didn’t even know existed. Sarah is very committed to her job, she completed courses all the time, provides handouts to support with training, and was always punctual to our sessions. She does not pressurise you into committing to lots of sessions that aren’t required , and she reviews progress and sets tasks to help with training at the end of each session. She has also set up a client group on social media, where she posts advice and you can ask questions. It wouldn’t surprise me if Jack had a ‘behavioural relapse’ just so Sarah can come back again as he misses her very much 💙
Sarah really helped me build my confidence with our rescue. When we first got our rescue Pomeranian he unfortunately had an accident which meant his front paws were in casts and he unfortunately had to be caged. As you can imagine I lost my personal confidence walking him out and about and Sarah helped to restore that confidence. She also gave us some techniques to help him with his anxiety and with some bad habits he'd picked up. We're still on a massive learning curve but I can say that Sarah's approach and love of dogs is clear. She really wants to help and do what's best for you and your dog. Definitely a recommended trainer.
I wanted to improve the confidence of our slightly shy rescue dog but was nervous about daycare after a previous bad experience elsewhere, but Sarah is so knowledgeable and experienced and we instantly felt totally happy leaving Lola with her. It really is a home from home, Lola has been going for about 2 months and now knows each week when it's time to go to Sarah's and can't get into the car fast enough! Both Sarah and Mike have been amazing at welcoming Lola, I love seeing her having fun on Facebook and so happy I found Patch's. I can't recommend highly enough.
Having Sarah guiding and training us and our puppy Cora for the six week course we purchased is the best decision we could possibly have made. We have never had a dog before so were starting from scratch, but she has helped us develop the skills and techniques to be confident doggie parents. She is calm, reassuring, understanding, flexible and unbelievably knowledgeable. She's also been available by email when we've had the odd worry between sessions. We can't recommend Sarah highly enough. Thankyou so much x
My dogs have been going to Jans for the last 5+ years. I have used weekly day care as well as holiday cover. It’s so reassuring when they jump out the car all excited to be there and run down the garden for a play and sniff about. It means i can leave them assured that my doggy babies are in good hands. Jan has always been a pleasure to deal with. I have no hesitation recommending her and have done so to friends who now use the service.
Jan is absolutely fantastic. From her knowledge, to her clean, spacious, calm home, she is welcoming and caring. We have left our 10m old Reggie with her 4 times now and he LOVES IT! When he returns, he is happy and relaxed. Have taken him to a dog day care previously but Reggie comes back exhausted and extremely thirsty. It's like he hasn't been able to relax. When he comes back from Jans, he's a lovely calm happy do. Jan has excellent knowledge of dogs and has shared some really useful tips with me. Fair to say Reggie has a friend for life with Jan. We won't go anywhere else!
A really lovely & friendly place for dogs
Shannon is amazing with my two pugs. Very hard to find someone you can trust with your dogs and I can tell you Shannon is the person! You can tell she loves her job, she treats them like her own and cares very much for all the dogs she walks and looks after. They have the best time with her and come home knackered 😂 Thank you Shannon ❤️
I couldn’t recommend Shannon at Moores Paws enough! Very accommodating professional and most importantly amazing with my Frankie. I was super anxious about leaving my Frankie and having a dog walker come in but Shannon put me at ease and provided regular updates. Would recommend and look forward to using her services again x
Shannon at Moores Paws has cared for my fur buddy since he was a puppy, he’s now 3 years old! Shannon is reliable, kind and has always looked after my Buddy, he goes on group walks and play dates he has a fabulous time, lots of pictures are shared about the adventures they have! Shannon is considerate ensuring all the dogs she has get on and will ensure temperaments are matched! Home made biscuits he loves! When I go on holiday I know he is safe and well walked when out and about with moores paws! X
Moores Paws (Shannon) is the best. Honestly couldnt recommend enough. The effort and love she puts into all of her dogs really puts your mind at rest knowing how well she treats them. My dog is literally OBSESSED with her. Even when she hears her voice on her videos, my dog then searches the house for her! The updates of the pictures & videos are amazing and i love to keep up to date on what adventures my pup has been on with her 😍❤️
Shannon helped me out with daily visits to my three Dachsunds for a few weeks. They can take a while to get used to people, but Shannon won them over almost straight away. She clearly loves he work and is so good with dogs!
Shannon is fantastic with our little guy. He was shy when she first started walking him, and now he loves hearing her at the door. She takes him twice a week, and has even taught him to walk off lead, (after first discussing with us, obviously). I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog walker or pet sitter
Moore’s Paws is AMAZING! I cannot recommend Shannon enough! She is so lovely, trustworthy and reliable! Both of my crazy spaniels LOVE her and she is so good with them 🐾 xxx …
Shannon is the most amazing person! Our dog Arlo absolutely loves going out with her and running with his friends! We are so lucky to have found her, she treats all her dogs as if they were her own and the excitement we see when Arlo gets to go with her is just so lovely to see! Thanks for looking after our pup 🤍
My 2 dogs love Shannon as do I. It’s so reassuring when I’m away to know my dogs are well taken care of and having a great time. Shannon always sends me great photo, videos and updates so I can see all the fun they are having. Highly recommend.
Shannon has looked after my pup Teddy often. She truly is full of love and affection for all fur babys. I would highly recommend Moore’s Paws 🐶 …
There aren't enough words to describe the truly loving care our dogs have received from Lorna at We Love Pets - kind, caring, competent, compassionate. Lorna has helped us out with dog walks - she takes them on amazing walks - day care and also holiday boarding where they have a really wonderful time and we can go on holiday knowing that they will be totally loved and cared for. Lorna has cared for our dogs at all stages of their lives including our elderly dog suffering from dementia and our young dogs when they were puppies. Lorna is amazing and our dogs absolutely ADORE her! Can't recommend Lorna, Jo and their team enough.
Monty has had daily walks with the Farnham We Love Pets team since he was 16 weeks old (he’s now nearly 2). He loves his walks and it’s lovely to receive pictures and video footage to see what he has been up to whilst I’m at work. They are reliable and accommodating and it’s nice to know he is well looked after. Monty is happy and that’s good enough for me.
We love pets began walking my dog 18 months ago, when she was 8 months old, she was a very lively German shepherd, not the easiest of clients to take on. I feel they have handled her very well, and helped with the socialization. I like the way they use the commands I use, and will be firm with her when necessary.there have been two walkers over the 18 month period, and she really loves both of them. So yes I would recommend them.
I looked around lots of dog walking services, all of which left me with concerns, but as soon as I talked to We Love Pets and met Debby, I knew I had found a business and people who ran their business properly, had all the right training, didn't walk dogs in huge packs and generally understood dogs and their owners. Hugo loves going out with Debby and does things for her that he won't even do for us (like jump into the car) and the pictures she takes on their walks are lovely. I would highly recommend We Love Pets
I could not recommend this company enough! they are so reliable and always do their best by their customers and of course their little furry friends! Helen took care of of my two cats while I was on holiday (before the lockdown) and the care given was second to none! It's fantastic that you receive photos and updates after each visit, we so looked forward to seeing how our kitties were getting on each day! Our cats were taken care of in the comfort of their own home so no stress for them! Jo and Lorna and all of the team are absolutely fantastic and you can really see the care and love that they put into their work! Thank you very much and I will certainly be using the company again!
What a great experience we've had with We Love Pets! Our cocker spaniel races out of the door with barely a glance back for his parents when Louise comes to take him out for a walk, which is testament to how much he enjoys the time! Reliable, genuine dog lovers and I feel safe leaving my precious pooch in their very capable hands!
I have two cats, Honey and Elvis and I asked ‘We Love Pets’ to help look after them while I was away on business. They were absolutely fantastic and did a wonderful job! They sent me daily photos which I enjoyed receiving and helped to provide comfort that my little kitties were happy and well. The cats were extremely well looked after and I would use these services again! The team were incredibly flexible when I needed some urgent and last minute help and I really appreciated how they responded. A thoroughly professional service. Thanks so much to Lorna, Jo and Seana for their great support!
Lorna and Jo at We love Pets are amazing. We have been their clients for over a year and we could not do without them. They love Mabel our miniature daschund and every week when she goes to Lorna's for the day she jumps out of the car and rushes in so happy to be visiting again. I would not hesitate to recommend them for walking, day boarding or over night boarding. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
We booked our 8 month old puppy in to Lorna's care whilst we went on holiday for ten days. We just couldn't bring ourselves to book her into kennels, especially as she was a lockdown pup. From the moment I met Lorna we were welcomed into her home and I knew she would be amazing. Rosie got to socialise with her pets, including a dog loving cat, and other dogs on day trips. Lorna went above and beyond with regular WhatsApp photos and updates of her adventures. Lorna and her husband cared for our dog like she was one of the family. I traveled a fair way to Andover but it was well worth the drive and the money. Rosie looks forward to the next visit!
We have been using We Love Pets since since November 2018. Our dog loves the We Love Pets. We have met various people from We Love Pets, walkers and boarders and they have all been lovely and our dog throughly enjoys the time she has spent with all of them. Jo & Lorna are very helpful with coordinating schedules and meeting your needs (our dog went through a period where she couldn't walk and they were very flexible with arranging dog visits and short walks). We would definitely recommend the group to any one looking for a walker, pet visit, and/or boarder in the area.
Harriet has been a godsend when it comes to providing care for my mini Daxie lilo! As a health worker trying to find dog care around my schedule is difficult! Harriet is fantastic with my dog and I know she is cared for so well when with her. The health service discount helps lots!!
Our lively spaniel was too much for the last boarder we tried, but he settled in just fine with Harriets crew. Clearly had a wonderful time and we at last felt confident we had found a caring and competent person to look after him. Delighted to say we are now having a week away for the first time since he joined our family and best of all have no worries and know he will have the best time 🙂
Seeing photos of Mayo with her new buddies I can see she is content and very happy. I am one very happy owner to find a walker like Harriet....I can only say thank you 🤗❤️ …
