Melissa recently looked after our two cats at home, Tommy & Ollie. Ollie unfortunately injured himself the week we were due to leave for holiday, but Melissa reassured us that he’d be well looked after and she was more than happy to administer his medication whilst we were away. We came home to two very happy, well fed cats, a clean home and without the huge cattery fees! Definitely recommend!
Melissa looked after our elderly cat for a whole week and despite my worries of leaving him, he was well fed and looked after and I had no need to worry at all. Melissa is a lovely, mind and understanding person who knew exactly how we would worry about him and she put our minds at rest both before we went away, but also she sent messages and photos whilst we were away to reassure us he was fine. A great service and we’ll definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone.
Melissa took amazing care of our two British shorthairs 😺😺 for almost 2 weeks! She has a great connection with animals and our cats where so happy and comfortable with her ☺️. Thank you again for taking good care of our fur babies x …
Melissa takes great care of our cat which she has done on multiple occasions. She is very reliable, has a great connection with animals and our cat adores her. Highly recommeded!
Can’t recommend Melissa highly enough. Kind and courteous, excellent value and utterly reliable. A great relief to find such an excellent person to look after my cats in Holmfirth! No more traumas getting the cats to the Cattery…
Melissa has fed our two rabbits on several occasions whilst we have been away on holiday and always does a great job, we would recommend her to anyone else looking for a pet sitter!
Excellent service for our cat who hates catteries, I think he fell a little bit in love!!!! Updates we're very welcome too!
If you are going away and you cant take your 4 legged love with you, rest assured they will take a great deal of care of them! Absolutely amazing ... On the other hand shop will provide you with everything you might need for day to day care! Great staff, excellent products...
Can't recommend highly enough. Dog O'Mighty go out of their way to make sure our 2 Border Terriers have the best time ever. Vicky is an animal lover through and through and it shows in how she cares for ours.
Tallulah loves daycare and the feeling that she is safely looked after by people that love her just as much as she loves them is important to me.
Fantastic place for any dog. Well looked after with professional staff
I've not stayed at hotel but the day car is second to none , u can see they really care about dogs welfare and the dogs body language shows they like going back there when they realise where they going. I would also add the natural dog food supply next door is the best natural food supplier I've found and mark and other staff know what they talking about
Absolutely fantastic cant reccomend highly enough... think the dog prefers it there to coming home. Mark and Vicky are great and take the time to get to know your dog so they can enjoy the stay and relieve the anxiety on both you and the dog.
Amazing place. They've helped our foster dog, Lucy, so much through the day care. She's a different dog now! Really friendly and helpful staff and clearly love dogs
This is a great kennels, my dog races to see his human friends on the team. Great service, lovely people and I never have a doubt that he won’t be well looked after.
Great idea, had to book my dog in for an evening, she is very nervous but was fine with the experience. Great members of staff, caring and attentive to my dogs needs, thanks Mika will be back :-)
Morag loves every minute of her holidays and sulks for a day or two when she comes home ços she gets very spoilt would highly recommend it to anyone
We have used Chris a number of times now and he never disappoints. Our cats are so comfortable with him, even though one is nervous and the other a rescue. He is so respectful of our space, leaving everything pristine for our return. We can do what we need to do knowing the cats are in the best of hands. Thank you Chris.
We cannot recommend Victoria and Chris highly enough! Their consideration for the needs of the dogs and cats that they look after is second to none. They prioritise safety, they are utterly reliable and trustworthy, and they have superb standards in all areas. Victoria (who was highly recommended to us by a local dog owner) started walking our challenging pointerdor (lab x English Pointer) in Feb 2022 when he was about 9 months old. Eddie's recall was developing slowly and we were looking for an opportunity to enrich his outdoor life with a professional who could help with the training basics while out on walks by being consistent with what we were doing and also enabling Eddie to learn from older, calmer dogs. Victoria was so careful, keeping him on a long-line for a couple of years until she felt completely safe to let him off without one, and only when she'd asked our permission (we totally trusted her judgement anyway). Victoria walks dogs in very small groups, only putting the right dogs together and her values that prioritise the dogs' individual needs according to their characters, breeds and development stages, have always been so important to us. Eddie had solo walks at the beginning to build the bond with Victoria, and then walks with the right mature dogs to match Eddie's playfulness etc. Eddie has made some wonderful doggy pals - many of whom have acted like his mentors in the early days- and the walks with Victoria have been a crucial part of Eddie's social development and learning about acceptable behaviour on walks. His recall has benefitted hugely. I can say that Victoria has been absolutely key and fundamental to Eddie's overall development and we have a very happy, healthy, rounded, secure dog. Thank you for all the love and care you continue to give Eddie and we will always love being friends as well as clients. We are so grateful to Ellie for putting us in touch back in Feb 2022!
We have used Victoria and Chris for all our pets since 2019. They are both great. Patient, considerate and totally trustworthy. One of our dogs has behavioural challenges and they take the greatest care with him. Highly recommended.
Chris built a wonderful rapport with our two rescue dogs, and they have clearly enjoyed their walks with him. We recently lost our old girl, and I wanted to comment on great communication, tailoring walks to her fading abilities, and understanding of the needs of our younger, energetic boy, Billy. We are so pleased, the relationship is everything 🐕
I can’t recommend Victoria and Chris highly enough. Our 4 year old collie has always been nervous around people and other dogs but he was so relaxed around Chris and Victoria when they first met him. We really wanted him to socialise with other dogs so they gradually introduced him to some of the dogs they walk and I’m delighted to say that he’s now got some great doggie friends! They genuinely love the dogs they walk and treat them as their own. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our boy.
Excellent service, Victoria and Chris have been walking my dog for just under a year, very reliable and my dog absolutely loves them! They both have a genuine care for the animals they walk/ look after.
Cannot tell you how good these people are, Daisy is so happy to see Victoria when she picks her up then returns like she's had the time of her life. HPS bend over backwards to help in any way that they can and are always professional in the way that they act. Texts and videos if you want showing just how much the dogs are enjoying themselves, I would recommend them without hesitation. These people take the time to ensure that your dogs are looked after and are not just people who walk dogs
This is an absolutely fantastic service. I was so worried about going on holiday and leaving my three cats as I’ve never left them before but I needn’t have worried as they had the best possible care and I was sent regular updates and photos which put my mind at rest. I came home to three very happy cats. I highly recommend this service and I will certainly be using it again.
absolutely wonderful service. went on holiday for a week and left my 4 chinchillas in there very capable hands. they kept use very up to date and informed about our girls. can not recommend them enough.
I have used HPS to cat sit for my 3 rescue fur babies several times now. I can always rest assured that they are in good hands and well cared for 😊 …
