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!
We moved up to Cheshire last year along with our boarder collie. We have been a bit worried about putting him in kennels again because when we lived in Kent we had a bad experience with one and he refused to back. We have used the kennels now a couple of times and it seemed really nice. This time we used them woody confirmed it. Because as soon as we got there he couldn't wait to get out of the car and get in there. We will definitely use the kennels every time we go away. Lovely friendly owners. Thanks for looking after woody again.
In my humble opinion, the best kennels around. Ran by a lovely couple who really look after our dog. Excellent.
Great people my dog always comes home happy used 5 times this year excellent . Liz James
Great service and great care given. One of our cats had a medical emergency and was swiftly taken to the vets, and they kept an extra eye on our other cat as it was her first time on her own.
I made an initial enquiry which I got a response to which was vague in the sense I gave the dates of drop off and collection and was told the figure was an approximate, no explanation as to why it would change or what could influence a change which seemed strange. I replied to this email, never got a response, after a week I resent the email, didn't get a response, finally phoned and spoke with a woman who insisted on telling me she was too busy to answer emails as was working and what worked for her, my response was to maybe remove the email address from the website, she preferred to run the business via the phone apparently which is fine but then this needs to be reflected on their website. Didn't understand when I said I run a busy diary and prefer email, it was all just an inconvenience listening to her drone on about how busy she is. I resent the email a third time as she was trying to find it, seemed a bit overwhelmed by technology. The woman I spoke with continued to tell me how busy she was and what she had time for and what she didn't as if I was interested to hear her opinion, my objective was to book my dog into a kennel, she came across a bit confused and overworked. The same woman was oblivious of her manner and how she was coming across, maybe it's an age thing but from a business point of view she is the wrong person to answer the phone. In the end I terminated the call and feedback I thought her attitude was pretty poor, for an older person one should know better and have better manners. Seems like a strange way to run a business, all sounded a bit chaotic to me, I came to the conclusion speaking with this person I didn't want my dog in what sounded like a chaotic toxic environment and very different to what is advertised on the website all based on the conversation and tone the woman used. If that's the environment you want to place your dog in you're at the right place, if not based on my experience I would avoid.
Can't say much besides I took my dog one day early and still have to pay for it. Furthermore the dog was sick with diarrhea for 2 days, had to take her to the vet. Unsure if we will use them again
We’ve taken our cat Sunday to Lawton Valley cattery twice now and everytime she is loved and well looked after! Always returns home super chilled and happy. Would highly recommend :)
Our 11 year old dog Max just spent his first ever night in kennels at Lawton Valley, he trotted off without a backward glance to us and was just as happy and relaxed when we picked him back up. We will be using again in the future.
Excellent service we had to kennel our greyhound at short notice due to a family emergency and Beverley and Peter took him in without hesitation. They collected him due to us being out if the area which is going above and beyond and we cant thank them enough. We collected our greyhound 3 weeks later and the Kennels themselves are very clean and well run with a mixture of different animals. The animals themselves are well treated and excercised. It is an easy place to find and well signposted. We would highly recommend.
My cat was taken good care of while we were away, and was her normal, healthy self when we collected her. I was able to put her in the pen and collect her from it, so I was confident that she was kept in a safe space. The price was reasonable.
