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

I would recommend Woody woods to everyone! I love that they use an enclosed field for the dogs which is deffo a highlight of my Tess's day. Sandra is 1 in a million when it comes to dog grooming.. my girl is very hyper and unconfident.. Sandra really takes her time and does not rush. Which i could not ask anymore from her. I can just tell from her rushing in at morning drop off that she loves it does not look back for me straight off for a fun day. Thank you as always for being great!! My Tess has come on leaps since starting there they have taught her so much🥰
We had to book our pug in unexpectedly last minute for a few days of boarding, and Sandra was amazingly understanding. All forms and paper work were sorted with ease, and the little man really enjoyed his stay! He even came back smelling fresh and was lovely and soft! Even when she was ill, Sandra kept me up to date with how the little man was, which, as a worrier was so relieving. I cannot express how amazing she was. Genuinely an angel. I would HIGHLY recommend her, and I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you again so much Sandra for all of your help!
I have used Woody Woods on a couple of occasions. Unfortunately my last experience wasn't good as we had our dog boarding booking cancelled just before we were due to go on holiday. So for that reason I won't be using them again. PS: in response to the barage of abuse below. My doggies are very well cared for, thank you very much. And to imply they aren't is just slanderous. I have one Gmail account and I've used it to leave this 'honest' review. PPS: Yes I have another doggy boarder who is absolutely fantastic with my pooches. Good day!!!
Highly recommend Sandra and her pet care services. Sandra looked after our dog for the day when we had a day out in the area. Our dog was well looked after and was very comfortable with Sandra. Lovely photo and update sent during the day. Thank you so much x
Wouldn’t recommend Sandra at all. Had been using her for a long time without issue, even though I had my apprehensions about her considering what a friend of mine had told me about her (she made them come back from their holiday as her own dog had died and she was too distraught to look after theirs anymore). Then had my dogs stay with her a few months back and Sandra was just awful. Messaging complaining about their behaviour constantly. Refusing to answer how they were. Put us on edge the whole time we were on holiday. Then proceeded to cancel all future bookings that we had with her. Honestly, don’t be fooled by her reviews/qualifications/FB posts. I know of at least 3 other people who have had real bad experiences with Sandra. And just further to your reply to this review (that by the way is a copy and paste from another bad review of your business)…….go to the police for what Sandra? Because I left one honest review about you and your business? Pull the other one! And my 2 dogs are very well cared for, as you well know Sandra, so quit the mud slinging to try and save face. Furthermore, I’ve had absolutely zero issues getting another sitter thank you. As stated to you previously, a number of veterinary clinics are now aware of your practices. I guess all that’s left for me to just reiterate is……..STAY CLEAR OF THIS BUSINESS PEOPLE. SANDRA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR DOGS!
Sandra was absolutely wonderful with our toy poodle. We felt very comfortable leaving her there, knowing she would be cared for and have plenty of walks and play. Sandra is clearly very experienced with dogs and was great with communication, we really appreciated all the updates and photos on WhatsApp and I would have no hesitation at all recommending her to anyone and will definitely be using her again. Loved the bonus of our pooch coming back looking very pretty, having had a groom!
My wife and I were delighted with how Sandra and her husband looked after our Sprocker Spaniel Betsy last week. We had to complete a detailed registration form prior to Betsy's one-night stay and ensure that her vaccination record was up-to-date. On arrival Sandra showed us her licence and was very welcoming and warm; it was clear that Betsy was completely at ease. All the doggy guests were taken to Gilbert's Field for a run and play, and it was very thoughtful to be sent some photos of them having fun! Betsy will be staying at Woody Woods when our son gets married on February, and we thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, caring temporary home for their dog.
My self and Kiernan would not let our dachshund go anywhere else. Sandra and her family go above and beyond to give him the very best care. She has helped us at short notice, given us valuable advice and is an expert in her field. He is VERY happy with them and has made lots of lovely friends! We love to see the pictures of his adventures! I would have no hesitation in recommending Woody Woods Pet Services 😊
Sandra grooms my spaniel Ethel. She never rushes her but goes at Ethel's pace giving her lots of love and encouragement. She always looks and smells adorable when I pick her up. Sandra is a lovely friendly person who listens to what you want. Highly recommended.
Sandra was absolutely amazing when she looked after my 5 animals. At the time one of them was under veterinary supervision and Sandra was back and forth from the vets. She was absolutely incredible and i highly recommend her. Nothing is too much trouble ❤️ thank you again, love from Talulah, Rafiki, Patch, April & Chase 🐰🐰🐱🐱🐦 …
Very good, and useful service! (Update: 5 years later!) Snowdrop are still doing a fantastic job of looking after our pets while we're away, and for an incredibly good price. We couldn't be happier with the service that they provide, and are always at a little bit of a loss of where to go when they do occasionally have a holiday themselves! An absolutely wonderful service.
Do not reply to enquiries.
Claire was brilliant we can't thank her enough, she gave Redd a home from home while we were away.We did worry Redd might not want to come home with us he was having so much fuss from Claire and lots of play with Claire's other guests. Thank you Claire! We wouldn't hesitate to bring Redd back or to recommend Bruno's Dog hotel to anyone else. Bob and Sue Crookes.
Claire does a fantastic job of day care and holiday stay overs! My dogs will be there for their holiday again this year! Nothing seems to be a problem, late notice for walks etc are accommodated whenever possible and the dogs always have a great time! Claire keeps you updated with photos and messages to let you know they’ve settled in and all is well. It’s a home from home setting which is a bonus for my dogs! All round a great service which I would highly recommend 👍👌
Our experience with Bruno's Dog Hotel was absolutely fantastic! Claire took care of our beloved Westie, Murphy, for two weeks while we were on holiday, and we couldn't be more pleased with the exceptional service provided. From the moment we dropped Murphy off, it was evident that he was in capable and caring hands. Claire's passion for dogs shone through, and it truly felt like Murphy was staying with family. The homey atmosphere of Bruno's Dog Hotel made us feel confident that Murphy was not just well taken care of but was also enjoying his stay. Claire's communication was outstanding. We received regular updates, including photos and videos of Murphy having the time of his life. It warmed our hearts to see him so happy and engaged, and it eased any concerns we might have had about leaving him for an extended period. The attention to detail in ensuring Murphy's comfort and happiness was truly commendable. It's evident that Claire goes above and beyond to create a personalised and enjoyable experience for each furry guest. The love and dedication she puts into her work make Bruno's Dog Hotel stand out as a top-notch establishment. We wholeheartedly recommend Bruno's Dog Hotel to anyone seeking a home away from home for their canine companions. If you want your dog to be not just cared for but to thrive in a loving environment, Bruno's Dog Hotel is the place to choose. We are grateful to Claire for making Murphy's stay memorable, and we'll undoubtedly be returning customers for future holidays. A million thanks for the outstanding service!
Mar 24 Another fabulous stay at Bruno's Dog Hotel! My two cavaliers settled very well with Claire and the other pups. They were all a very friendly bunch of pups and great to see they them all getting on so well. They went on some lovely walks and some off lead time in a secure field too. Claire does a fantastic job of caring for them all. Looking forward to our next visit! May 23 My two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels had a lovely stay with Claire, Jet and the other holiday pups! One of my pups had never stayed away from home and Claire did an amazing job of developing a bond with her so she felt comfortable and happy. It really is a hotel for dogs! Thank you Claire x
Our Cocker Spaniel Charlie had a great week with Claire at Bruno's Dog Hotel, she looked after him brilliantly - he loves fuss and cuddles and Claire was happy to give him plenty of both. Bruno's is definitely a home from home experience for visitors, but for Charlie in our case at least, he had the added bonus of other dogs to play and spend time with which he loves too. Our dog was diagnosed with condition not long before he was due to stay at Bruno's, but after one phone call with Claire, she took it in her stride and was very happy to manage the situation and give him his medication, it was no problem at for her. This was a huge relief for us and we were very thankful. Claire also gave us updates during his stay which gave us added peace of mind. Thank you Claire for looking after Charlie so well, we really appreciate all you do for your visitors. For anyone looking for a truly wonderful, safe and caring place for your dog to have a holiday of their own, we thoroughly recommend Bruno's Dog Hotel
Our little dog Freya had a wonderful day at Bruno's hotel. Claire kindly fitted us in as we were on our hols and couldn't take the dog to visit Stoneywell. Claire obviously has a good way with dogs and is set up well at her beautiful home with all a dog could need. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Claire has looked after our puppy on several occasions. We couldn’t be happier with Claire’s professionalism, care and attention. Silky absolutely loves being with Claire, Bruno and Jet (and the other furry visitors!) and is spoilt with love and attention during her stay. Claire keeps in touch and has always been so accommodating to meet our needs. We wouldn’t trust many people to look after our puppy but we don’t ever worry when she is with Claire. Highly recommend. Thanks Claire!
Brunos dog hotel is just wonderful. I leave Marley here knowing he will be treated as one of the family and have the best time with all his doggy pals. It makes me so happy to see him happily run inside and to see him playing. Would highly recommend Claire, Bruno and Jet to anyone.
Claire is an absolute angel. My husband and I suffered an accident and were unable to walk our lively spaniel. Claire stepped in and made sure Fudge had plenty of exercise and a huge amount of fun. Fudge adores Claire and she looks after him so well. I cannot recommend more highly.
We tried a local kennel and our dog (cockapoo) chewed on the bars so much he got an infection so clearly that wasn't for him. So then tried Bruno's. Lovely service very reasuing and looked after our dog really well and accommodated for his unique needs. Even sent a couple of photos while he was visiting and sent him back with a mini report card which is a lovely touch.
Ali is simply brilliant! Our puppy adores her and so do we. Her motto of your pup being part of the family is 100% how it feels when she starts to work with you. She is reliable, friendly and super positive. She has helped us with getting our very shy and unsure puppy very confident and used to other dogs, people and new situations. We have seen huge improvements in our dogs temperament in the short time Ali has worked with her. She has also shown us how to help our dog with unwanted behaviours and that is invaluable. Her grooming is also AMAZING! 😃
We have been using Ali for almost 5yrs now and in all that time she has continued to be invaluable to me & my fur family. She is wonderful with all animals and her care & professionalisms are second to none. She is a fantastic groomer as well as reliable walker & boarder for when wherever I’m away. I wouldn’t send my dog Milo anywhere else. Can’t recommend Ali enough, But most importantly Milo adores her and is always super excited to see her, I think that says it all! Thank you Ali x
Ali has had our dogs since they were puppies, she has been amazing with all of them and I’d happily give Ali 75%credit for how they have turned out. Not only is she a good reliable dog walker she is also a very good trainer. She has helped us massively. 5 star review she is definitely worth every penny
Ali was a godsend for us. We had puppies over the Lockdown period and when we came out of Lockdown they weren’t socialised and very cautious about people and fellow dogs. Dog walking was not a pleasant experience. Ali initially took my twin puppies for a walk with her ‘easy going’ dogs to see how mine would react. Within a very short period of time the puppies behaviours changed dramatically and their personalities began to emerge. Ali is reliable, trustworthy, flexible and has a genuine passion for all of her dogs she walks. She takes the puppies to all different places for a walk/runabout and encourages them to interact with dogs that are unknown to them. I would fully recommend Ali as a dog walker.
Little Pet Paws was great in supporting me with my dog Holly who I had been struggling with on walks and also recal. Ali was amazing and took Holly for a walk along with me so I could learn the skills to best support Holly. She was great at explaining how to respond positively to Holly's behavior. It was great to learn from Ali, and also ask questions along the way. Ali was brilliant at explaining and she was also able to ask me questions to understand the reason behind Holly's behaviour. I have gone from a really anxious dog walker to feeling really confident on our walks. Holly is already a different dog on our walks.
My lab puppy Willow loves going on walks with Ali. My pup has gained so much confidence in the car and being with other dogs. Plus, Ali posts photos of her walks on FB so you get to see all the fun they have been having! Highly recommend!
Ali was brilliant helping us train our Mini Schnauzer when she was a puppy. She gave us good advice on off lead training and the issues we had with Pippa pulling when out walking with her. Pippa is now 3 and she still loves going on walks with Ali, which had helped with her socializing with other dogs.
Ali has walked both of my dogs since they were puppies. She’s more than just a dog walker, she cares for my dogs like they are her own and there aren’t many people I would trust to look after them. My dogs wait for Ali to come each day and when they return they are nicely tired. If you are looking for some one not just to walk you dog but also to care about them look no further, you’ve found her.
Our pride and joy, Wilfred, is definitely treated like one of the family by Ali; she dotes on him and has supported him to develop excellent behaviours. Wilfred loves his time with Ali, enjoying both walks in a range of lovely settings and socialising opportunities with other dogs. Ali is very responsive to attempts at contact and will always endeavour to accommodate our changing needs, including having Wilfred to stay with her at short notice. We trust Ali implicitly and would highly recommend her; there is no one better in Charnwood!
Ali has been walking Stanley since he was a very cautious puppy who found the world outside his home rather overwhelming. Ali helped us build his confidence and mixing with the rest of the Little Pet Paws family assisted with socialisation Almost two years on he is a very happy and friendly dog who cannot contain his enthusiasm when Ali comes to pick him up - Stanley adores her - I cannot recommended Ali more highly.
Hannah took care of our gorgeous cat whilst we were away. Very professional, trustworthy and kept to times and days. Could not recommend anyone better!
Hannah is lovely. Our dogs love her too. Very reliable and friendly.
Rachel has looked after our Cockerpoo Woody on several occasions over the past few years and quite honestly he loves going to stay with her. We get regular updates whilst we're away with photos and its clear he's having a great time with the other dogs. She's always very thorough and professional and ensures that the animals that she has in her care are harmonious together. Its great to have peace of mind to know that he's being looked after so well. We can't speak highly enough of Rachel and the care she provides.
Rachel and Mark are super!! Our dogs adore them and love to see them. We love getting the daily pictures and Mark certainly knows how to use a good filter. Can’t recommend them enough!!
Rachel looked after our two cats while we were on holiday for a week, visiting twice daily. She was very thorough, reliable & gave them plenty of fuss & playtime. We loved the daily photo updates and both cats were perfectly content when we arrived home! Would definitely recommend & use again 🙂 thanks Rachel! …
Absolutely flawless service. We had a holiday to Florida and needed someone to come and feed our old cat twice a day whilst we was away. Service was great, communication was fantastic, kept us updated with photos. Whilst we was away we got delayed coming home and had to stay an extra 2 nights because of a hurricane. Was not a problem extending the service to carry on feeding our cat. I can't recommend this company enough. If you need a service they offer, don't think about it, just contact them and book. 5 star service. Thank you 💙😻
Honestly, Rachel has changed my life. My Assistance dog wasn't getting walked as much as he should, so we found these. She focuses on my dogs needs during the walk making it dog focused and allowing him to decompress. She has respected my wishes in terms of not letting him play with other dogs other than ones he knows. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited in the morning to go, she's so amazing with him and I can't recommend them enough.
Rachel has fed our two cats Rocket & Dixie on a number of occasions and has always looked after them incredibly well. She gives us peace of mind whilst we're away, both in terms of the cats & also our property, ensuring it's left clean & tidy. She gives regular updates about the cats and provides pictures/video which is lovely to see. Nothing is ever too much to ask. I would highly recommend her services.
RM Pet Care are fantastic! Rachel & Mark care deeply about the animals in their care. My Rommie rescue is very nervous around new people & Rachel spent the time getting to know her. This is invaluable for our sensitive souls & my dog absolutely adores both her & Mark! Highly recommended.
Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful attitude towards myself and my wife. My dog came back in such an awful state we actually thought we would need to take him to the vets. Apparently another dog viciously attacked him and left him with a severed ear. The owner was damn right rude and aggressive. Would not recommended to anyone whom care she their pet.
Rachel has been doing pop ins and walks for our dog since she was a little pup, and is absolutely brilliant. She is extremely trustworthy, sends photos and updates and gives our dog so much love! It is really refreshing to see someone really love what they do. Even more so, the tail wags when we’ve seen Rachel on the street are probably more that what we’d get shows a lot!
Couldn't recommend Rachel enough! Our dog always has a waggy tail when he sees her and we feel so confident that he is being well looked after when out on his walks. He's also boarded with her, we get regular photo updates and her communication has always been great.
I have used the kennels over the past years. Both my dogs have been well looked after and cared for. They have gone in happily and have returned home just as happy. Thank you team for looking after them so well - I know I can relax and enjoy my holiday.
Our dog boarded for the first time. I came to pick our dog up and they had obviously spent time to get to know him and learnt his personality. He came home as a happy dog and they were so flexible to fit in with a family emergency. Couldn’t ask for more
These kennels were highly recommended to us, and our 18 month old cocker spaniel really enjoyed his first kennel experience there. We are very happy with the way it is run, the security for the dogs and the care with which they look after our furry friends! So much so, he has just been for another visit! Now we highly recommend them too!
Security of fencing is good, but you're not allowed to look round the kennels, even completing the booking forms I was made to stand outside in the rain! My collie came back nervous and smelling dreadful, she didn't have a great time. Never use them again!
We have been very impressed with the excellent care provided for our 3 dogs. Everybody is very friendly and they clearly care about the dogs and give them personal attention. Security is good with excellent fencing and gates and secure handover facilities. The dogs have come home looking very well and very happy. I would not hesitate to recommend the kennels and will definitely use them again.
My first time using any kennel for my dog Bailey. Very happy with the facilities. The owners and staff are very professional and put your mind at ease. Bailey has been very well looked after and I wouldn't hesitate in using farmhouse kennels again. Highly recommend.
A great experience for us and more so our loved pooch. Charlie loves it there which is a 1st and we have total peice of mind when he is with them. He always come back looking great and happy , well cared for and not eager to leave them. Thank you so much
Roxy absolutely loves coming to stay at Farmhouse Kennels! As soon as we arrive she jumps out of the car and in. Her reactions tell me that she is happy there and obviously well cared for. We have tried other kennels when Farmhouse were fully booked but she didn’t seem as happy as when she is here. Would highly recommend!
Excellent from the start, from initially visiting we knew this kennel was the right one for Spanner. We originally booked for both of our dogs to stay but sadly spanners companion passed away the week before, when we explained this to owner she was so understanding and i have no doubt she gave him some extra attention. Would definitely recommend to friends & family, spanner will be coming to stay again soon. Thank you!
Our 11year old chocolate lab Winston has stayed for breaks for a number of years and is always well cared for. Always more than happy to spend time there with Craig, Carol and Nan.
Our heartfelt thanks goes out to Jo and her dedicated team for looking after our 2 year old rescue Nellie so well during her holiday boarding. Staff are welcoming, friendly, patient, kind, incredibly talented and passionate about what they do. Any reservations we initially had about our girl’s first stay away from home dealing with her separation anxiety, were quickly dispelled. Jo sent and posted regular photo and video updates so we felt included which was hugely appreciated. We marvelled at her dedication, kindness, love and understanding towards all her doggie guests. Definitely Nellie’s first of many holidays with Poplar Paws , thank you!
Would not recommend this place to anyone in a million years!our 6 month old vizsla has been 3 times now, first 2 times shes had an upset stomach the day after and the last time she came out limping with the daycare having no knowledge of how it happened, or even acknowledging it full stop! Turns out she has a broken toe that now needs surgery! accidents happen i understand that, but she would have made such a noise when it happened, so theyre either lying about not knowing how it happened or she wasnt being watched at all! Either way, i have no trust in them at all and she wont be going back
Recently started bringing our two boys to Poplar Paws and as an anxious pet owner they did everything to make me feel reassured. I value the fact they keep the group size small and post regular pupdates on social media. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and obviously have a true love for animals. My only critique would be that the space to park and turn is limited but that could be attributed to my driving 🤣 overall a great service! Will continue to use and recommend. Thank you Poplar 🐶🐶
Our high energy Doberman Obi absolutely loves it here. Where other daycares in the area have turned obi away for being too high energy, Poplar Paws have taken him in and met his needs more than enough! He comes back tired and is excited each time I drop him off.
Excellent dog boarding, staff are friendly and are all clearly dog lovers, my boxer gets so excited when she goes here and is very well looked after, it’s a great place for dogs to have fun while you’re away rather than being locked up like some other places. Thank you
Highly recommended daycare and boarding at Poplar Paws, George has been here most weeks for daycare while I'm at work, and boarded once with more booked in the calendar. He comes back fulfilled and tired from a day of fun. The staff are wonderful, caring and lovely and it's clear that they love the dogs, and enjoy what they do.
Amazing staff who love your dogs a much as the owners do. Such hard working staff you're all amazing, thank you
My dog has been here 3 times now and she loves it. The people who run it share regular photos whilst you’re away putting your mind at rest. It may be a little more expensive than basic kennels but in my opinion the set up is better, there is a 10 dog boarding limit (unless this has changed) so you know your dog will be closely looked after by Jo etc. Fully recommended. One final point, I have no idea how someone can give this place 1 star. From what I have seen the people who run the place really care for the dogs and do everything to make sure they are happy.
What an absolutely fantastic little place. I would highly recommended Poplar Paws to anybody looking for boarding for their dog. From initial contact to the drop off, the staff are great. So lovely and attentive and this followed on with the care for our dog. He had the best time and we had messages, photos and even videos while we were away. I'm sure our little Arlo was even smiling on one of the photos 😁 he was so well looked after, I think he was quite sad to come home. There is no other place we would use now and Arlo can't wait for his next holiday. Thank you for looking after our baby like he was one of your own.
Daisy attends the day care and has boarded for the first time recently and I am so happy with the care she receives. All the staff genuinely care for the dogs in their care and it makes leaving Daisy so much easier knowing she is is safe hands. I highly recommend the daycare and boarding 🐾❤️
Now I'm not in the habit of complaining, but if I could leave a zero rating here I would. I was interrogated by the organiser at first booking about my dog's health, discovered I'd have to pay a full day's rate whether I'd arranged a half day or not... Then, to top it off, I had to cancel my first booking due to the Covid outbreak with 3 weeks' notice given, yet was told quite plainly my deposit was lost. I'd made two bookings though, the second in a week's time (11th May) and I actually recieved a text today asking what time I'd be taking my dog. During the Covid outbreak, to a lady in her 60s. Considering I got an interrogation at first booking about my dog's health, the experience I've received is clearly not just hypocritical, but all about profiteering over anything else. I've boarded pets for over 20 years now and I've never experienced anything like it. Avoid.
I appreciated the time taken to ensure that my elderly dog would be matched with the right carer by asking me about his needs, likes & dislikes and home routines. Also, the detailed terms and conditions meant I knew exactly what to expect from Petstay Leicestershire, particularly in regard to the difference between the arrangement and carer's fees. I would be happy to recommend Petstay Leicestershire as they really care about doing the best for the dogs in their care and their owners. Jane June 2021
Thank you Jane for sourcing Mark to look after Philip my greyhound. He was so lovely and Philip was happy staying with him. Thanks for asking about his health as Philip has Pannus and its important he gets his eyedrops every day. Mark was Brilliant and I cannot recommend him enough. Will definitely use petstay again.
Cody enjoyed his stay with 'Aunty Jane'. I would definitely use this service again. Home from home dog care that was based on my dogs needs.
Avoid using this company, not COVID flexible, booked for June well before lockdown started. Was told no refund of deposit nor could I move the dates or get a credit note.
Excellent
Sharon’s boarding is a happy loving environment. My dog was suffering from IVDD. Sharon was patient and assured me she would accept the responsibility for Zola’s care. She was marvellous and sent loads of photographs to make me know Zola was happy and all her medicine had been given. You’re missing a smashing, loving dog carer if you do not decide to take your dog to her.
I was very nervous about leaving our fur babies behind with someone we didn’t truly know having never put them in any sort of home boarding or kennels. Shazza’s Dog walking and home boarding was recommended to me and I contacted her who instantly responded to me answering all my questions. Shazza arranged to come over to our home and meet both our pups and made us feel very at ease with the process the dogs instantly took to her and enjoyed all the fuss and attention she provided. During our holiday Shazza provided us with daily updates including pictures and videos of them settling in. They both had the best time and made us feel very at ease knowing they were having the best time and being so well cared for. I will always reach out to Shazza moving forward to ensure she has availability before planning any holidays to ensure they have a home from home whilst we are away.
I was nervous about leaving my dog with somebody new, but Shazza was absolutely amazing and put my worries at ease - the regular videos and photos showed that Nora had settled in well and loved her time there. Nora also interacted great with the other dogs which was lovely to see. Will definitely be using her home-boarding again - highly recommend! Thank you so much!!
I think my dog had a great time. He was exhausted leaving Shazza's and when returning the next day, couldn't wait to get back. I got regular video updates of him playing with other dogs, so I know he was in good hands. She also didn't seem to mind when my dog stole one of her socks and she had to chase him around the garden! I'm going to be using services again in the future and would recommend.
After only 2 visits, our dog was clearly comfortable and he's quite anxious so that was reassuring to see. I highly recommend Shazza and we're booking a night's stay for our furry friend in another month's time. Shazza also has a lovely manner with humans. :-)
Love love love Louise. Trust her implicitly. Great attention and care.
Bobby and Zebby love going to stay with Louise and Preston and also for walks. The boys are always happy to see her when we bump into her out walking, that is the best recommendation you can have. Would highly recommend.
Hello Laura Rudkin. I am very sorry that you feel that you have not received a 5 star service from Preston’s Pals. If you would like any help or information about my services please let me know. Thank you. Louise Stokes
