Alex was an amazing sitter! Extremely diligent with her communication, sent amazing pictures of the pets, and left the place very clean!
Veronica was super! She adopted our Maine Coons as if they were hers. She took good care of them and the house. She is very in-tune with the needs of the home/pet owner. We enjoyed her visit and would have her stay again.
We had a fantastic experience with Arctic and Summit. They were exceptional—well-behaved, friendly, and all around great company. The home was beautiful and nestled in a lovely community. Taylor and Wilson were incredibly responsive to messages and took the time to show us around a few days before the sit. Their warm hospitality and clear communication made everything smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend them! We would look after Summit and Arctic again in a heartbeat. We already miss them. Arctic trying to fight sleep to hang out us and Summit’s mealtime tippy tappies are everything.
Petsitting for Sid was great! He’s an amusing cat with a bit of a finicky personality which I thoroughly enjoyed! From the start, Tim and Annie made everything easy, from their welcome guide to setting up my building access, etc. They are friendly, hospitable, and their apartment is cozy, fully equipped, and has great energy. I recommend this sit for anyone fortunate enough to get the offer. Thank you, Tim and Annie (and Sid!) for having me.
We loved staying at Will's beautiful and unique Portuguese stone Quinta in a rural setting with awesome views of the valley below, set in 5 hectares and fully private it was a lovely retreat and opportunity to live like a local and be in nature. The house had everything we needed for comfortable stay, particularly enjoyed living off grid and learning about the use of the water pump from the spring and solar all of which worked fantastically and we had no problems at all. Really enjoyed walking around the land in the wild flowered filled meadows, listening to the birds, watching the kites soaring above and hearing the local shepherd with his sheep and goats. We would do this sit again if we could make the dates work. Thanks to Will and Kitty for their hospitality, they welcomed us to arrive the night before and treated us to a lovely dinner and great conversation which was much appreciated!
I had such a good time staying at Kate's & Valentina's home. The flat reminded me of a Parisian one. It's bijou, super cosy, clean and located 5 min away by foot from a bus stop that takes you to Lisbon's centre. They made me feel super welcome and are great fun. I was in charge of just Willie on this sit. Mr Kitty has got attitude and he made me giggle on a daily basis. It took a few days for us to be friends but by the end of my stay, he was sleeping with me & he let me pet him. Hard to describe the feeling of winning on that one. :) He clearly missed his human. I'd sit there again in a heartbeat & I highly recommend their place.
Ger's place is in a lovely position for seeing Galway and her two dogs are delightful!
We enjoyed house and dog sitting for Jo and Gordon! They are easy to work with and have a lovely home with all the conveniences of home. We had a comfortable guest suite and enjoyed their beautiful garden, with minimal care required! The location is fantastic, being walking distance to beautiful downtown Sidney and the harbour. Parker endeared himself to us right away. He is such a fun fellow with a wonderful personality. He is also extremely smart and well trained! We will miss him. Michael and I highly recommend this sit and would love to do it again.

Amazing service! We recently booked Animal Aunts for the 1st time for a weeks house and cat sitting. We were initially wary of having anyone staying in our home, but as our cat is a very nervous rescue cat he needed someone around most of the day. Animal Aunts are highly professional and screen all of their staff and they provided us with a lovely lady to care for our house and our boy whilst we were away. He was so calm when we returned and was even pining for her when she left! The house was immaculate on our return. I highly recommend Animal Aunts to care for your home and furry family members.
Wonderful holiday safe in the knowledge Aunt Jim was once again looking after our two whippets Cammy & Georgie. You cannot put a price on peace of mind knowing the dogs are in the best hands. Many thanks Jim and Animal Aunts - see you soon!
We have recently come back from our first family holiday. We have never left the dogs with anyone before so was a bit worried as they are not the easiest of dogs and one of them can be a bit nervous around other people but the dogs had a great time with Jo. We had daily updates which really helped and our nervous dog really bonded with Jo. On our return our house was spotless which was an added bonus. Thanks Jo for looking after our dogs and house so well. We will definitely be booking you again. 😊
Animal Aunts offers a fantastic service. This was my first time using them and I only gave a week's notice for them to find me a house/dog sitter for a full week. From the moment that my call was taken, I immediately knew that I had made the right decision and felt completely relaxed that they would find someone suitable. The whole process was very professionally dealt with, I have a dog who is almost 12 and has to have regular medication and Auntie Penny called me to arrange a pre visit. My dog Poppy and I immediately warmed to her and I knew that I was leaving everything in Penny's very capable hands. When I returned Poppy looked very happy and healthy and the house was immaculate. Auntie Penny had kept me updated each day with photos and where they had been for walks. Penny was amazing and we both miss her! I will definitely be using Animal Aunts again.
We have used Animal Aunts for many years, and have been happy with their care and we have entrusted them with dogs who needed 24 hr care. In June this year we went away, we left our 3 year old dog and our almost house trained rescue dog,along with 2 cats and several chickens and a Cockerell. We informed Anima Aunts that our dogs couldn't be left, a occurance that has happrned year on year with various dogs, with no issues Problems started with Aunt Joan, when she failed to reach out to us, eventually Animal Aunts got her to contact us. We had a chat and sent the dogs and other animals daily routine and asking for driving license details. Again nothing for a few weeks, we got worried. My husband contacted Animal Aunts and despite my concerns didn't ask for a different aunt. Eventually we got Joan's husbands details fir the car. When they arrived they seemed very disengaged, they weren't that interested in knowing about the animals etc. I was concerned they wanted a free holiday in Cumbria. We left for the airport,after a few hours we got a text asking how long the dogs could be left! Despite usmakung it clear, that they should not be left unattended, she seemed rather tàken aback. On the Tuesday, having departed on the Saturday, we had to ask how the animals where! This is despite us asking them to contact us daily, something all the other Aunts had done. To say we were concerned was an understatement. When we returned the following sat, after Scant communication, we arrived to be told our not really house trained dog was crate trained, the truth , given via Aunt Joan as praise, was far from it. The poor girl was so scared,she'd had an accident in the bedroom on the first night, and they locked her out of the first floor and let her roam, ruining downstairs carpets. They also were asked to take them put before 10am, as it it was during the heat wave, but the doorbell camera proves it was much later. Although Animal Aunts refunded the extra payment for 24 hr care, which we have never encountered before in many years of using them, we feel they should regularly inspect their Aunts. Also they should send a feedback form We won't be using them again after this experience. We have a while to post this review as we wanted it to be considered rather than knee jerk reaction
Animal Aunts are amazing. We have a tricky dog who we couldn't leave with just anyone. Stephen always goes beyond the call looking after our dog, our home and even us on our return! Thank you so much.
Our Animal Aunt Jim has been coming and looking after our dogs and house for 13 years now. He is always friendly, professional and reliable. The dogs love him and I know I can totally relax when we go away as he has everything under control and the dogs are happy. I don't know what we would do without him! Thank you Jim and Animal Aunts.
Having contacted Animal Aunts to provide someone to look after our menagerie of 6 horses, 2 dogs and 1 cat to cover our wedding we were extremely impressed with the person sent out. We would have absolutely no hesitation using Animal Aunts again and think our animal family would be very happy to see us go and their 'aunt' return to look after them again!!! Cannot recommend highly enough, brilliant service!
Have been using Animal Aunts to look after our animals while on holiday for about 20 years. Always very happy with the service. This year Joan and Steve had to contend with a horse on box rest with a badly cut fetlock which needed dressing every other day while we were away. Nicely bandaged and wound healing nicely. Without the Aunts we would have had to cancel the holiday as the accident happened just before we were due to leave.
A great company who have often helped us out at short notice. Not the cheapest solution but justify this with the great service and professional team of Animal Aunts.
Marita was an absolute star, She helped me in an emergency with my dog and cat at home and made sure they were walked fed and happy , 100% recommended
Marita is an absolute life-saver! She goes out of her way to help us whenever we need day care and we know that our pup has a fantastic time running around and playing all day. He always comes home very tired and very happy! Marita is hugely knowledgeable and has been a wonderful sounding board for us as we have raised our first puppy. Two years later, we feel very lucky to be able to leave him with someone who we know will always take great care of him.
Brodie - our very mischievous Cairn Terrier - was fortunate enough to spend his holidays with Marita just after Christmas and what a wonderful happy time he had there! He thoroughly enjoyed playing and socializing with the other dogs (and cats), spending time at Marita's heel and generally enjoying life and the freedom to run unrestricted, whilst his people family were on holiday in far off lands. At the end of his stay he had a lovely haircut and grooming session (Excellent results!) and we collected such a happy dog on our return. All in all we are so very pleased to have met Marita and relieved that it was such a stress free experience for Brodie too. We cannot recommend her highly enough and Brodie hopes to spend many more enjoyable days there. Marita is a true animal lover and such a lovely, kind, caring person too. We cannot fault our experience in any way!
Our Tibetan Terrier started having his regular trims with Marita and loved his time there so much that he now goes for sleepovers when we go away for weekends or holidays. He is always excited to be dropped off to spend time with his doggy mates giving us huge peace of mind. Marita provides a professional and flexible service, which is very reasonably priced. I would recommend her to family and friends.
Marita done a fantastic job cutting our Black Russian Terrier/Giant Schnauzer cross. It was his first hair cut, so alot of puppy hair needed to be cut off. He looks so smart and handsome, he looks and feels like velvet now. 5* review I would definitely recommend anyone to come and use Marita's Animal Care, the love she has for animals is extraordinary. Thank you so much Marita.
Marita has been fantastic with Baghera our cat. When we come home he’s always a happy chap which for us is superb. It really nice to know we can go away and actually switch off knowing we can genuinely trust Marita to care for him. We also get periodic updates which is lovely reassurance. Would absolutely recommend
Our Labrador has been going to Marita two or three times a week for nearly two years. He loves going and can't wait to get out of the car to see Marita and all the other dogs. We would recommend Marita to anyone looking for doggy day care.(Sam)
Marita is a life saver, literally. She has our little chap Dougall regularly to give him a tidy up, it was on one of these visits that she mentioned that she thought there was something wrong with his teeth. It turned out, he'd broken his jaw and his whole jaw was infected. He's fine now thanks to Marita going that extra mile and being knowledgeable and experienced. He always comes back from his pamper session a happy little dog, absolutely wouldn't send him anywhere else.
Amazing person ❤️ Clear love and passion for animals. Collected my girls after a couple or weeks, and it seemed they didn't want to leave! I can see they were loved and taken care of - thank you, Marita, for everything.
I have both my spaniels fully clipped out with Marita. They adore her and she does a fantastic and proffesional job. They also enjoy the odd day care when I need it xx
So happy with the kindness and care the cats receive from Henry. Updates on every visit including photos and videos. Goes the extra mile and I am very happy to recommend this business.
We have been using Henry to look after our cats and have been very reassured and pleased with the care provided. Henry keeps us updated & provides regular pics. I would highly recommend anyone looking for professional & reliable care for your pets.
Henry is a lovely combination of kindness and understanding with efficiency and reliability. Just what you want when someone is caring for your much loved pet. We so appreciated the updates and photos of our cat he sent us every day we were away. The initial set up, information and briefing were all clear, and Henry’s experience shone through. We will definitely use him again.
Laura was absolutely brilliant at looking after our fur babies when we went away. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and that she saw them both at each visit. I had loads of updates and photos which was lovely and returned to happy cats! Thank you so much Laura and Henry, it is lovely to leave for holiday knowing your pets will be well looked after while you are away. X
Utterly brilliant service. Right from the initial meeting, it was so clear that so much genuine love with professionalism goes into this business. For the first time ever, our boys were so happy, active and energised when we came home. The fact photos were sent when we were away just showed us how happy they were, and made us miss them lots, but reassured us that they were ok. Our boys are very picky and can be shy but they were acting as if we were home and handling them - a clear indication of how good and experienced Henry and Laura are. Cannot recommend enough.
I was really impressed with the professionalism and communication of the Home and Pet Visit Company. Henry took great care of my rat and two guinea pigs while we were away and I felt really confident that they were being well cared for. Plus he sent me great, detailed updates to let me know everything was okay with my babies. I would definitely recommend Henry to anyone looking for some knowledgeable and experienced holiday care for small pets
I cannot recommend Henry highly enough. He consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are well cared for whenever he comes. His attention to detail, proper love, care, patience and clear passion for animals makes him just brilliant at the job. Communication is always immediate, he sends us a message after every visit, often with photos - which has been such an important thing for us, as one of our cats isn't very well and incredibly picky with her food! He is incredibly experienced at giving medicine, both pills and liquid and always spends proper time with the cats, giving them cuddles and love. He also takes very good care of the house and often closes curtains, turns on lights for us if we’re not there. I would give more stars if I could!
Henry has been fantastic looking after our cat and guinea pigs, for a week, whilst we were away. His daily updates and pictures were so reassuring and he did such a thorough job, for instance calling and checking on the whereabouts of our cat and playing with her etc. I really felt we were in safe and professional hands. Our cat really seemed to take to him which was great. Thanks Henry!
Henry has been looking after our cat over the Christmas period and has been excellent - very reliable and trustworthy! He updated us frequently, which gave us peace of mind. Will 100% be using The Home & Pet Visit Company for future cat sitting!
I highly recommend Henry - the dog whisperer! He has taken care of our big labrador several times at short notice. I was a bit anxious initially as he is sometimes unsure of people he doesn't know and wasn't used to people coming into his space. Henry made time to meet him beforehand and he warmed to him immediately, like I've never seen him do with anyone before! It was so reassuring to see and he's always very happy to see Henry! He is a genuine animal lover and a total natural with dogs. He is professional, personable, flexible, and it is so lovely to be able to relax whilst away, knowing that our dog is in excellent hands. Thank you Henry!
Jules is fantastic. She looked after our two cats whilst we were away . She visited morning and evening. Kept us updated throughout with some lovely photos . So pleased we chose Jules Home Visits . Will definitely use her again
Really recommend Jules home visits, Jules is so kind, caring and professional, my hamsters really enjoy her visits! They are kept clean and well fed, the house is always kept tidy and secure.
I cannot recommend Jules highly enough. Our cats are so much happier and more settled in their own home when we return from a short break. Jules is calm, kind and a true professional. We particularly love receiving the photos she sends us of our cats whilst we are away.
Jules is amazing 🤩 she takes such good care of our cats while we are away. Jules does so much more than just the basics of making sure they are fed and watered and the litter tray is kept clean. She takes the time for cuddles and play and brushing too and provides regular pictures and updates on what they have been up to, which is so reassuring. Highly recommended :)
Jules is lovely - she took great care looking after my two British Shorthair cats whilst I was on holiday. She went in twice a day and kept me updated with photos. She went the extra mile, keeping their food area clean and obviously I could see she had used the hoover to keep on top of the cat litter that gets walked around the floor! My boys seemed perfectly happy when I arrived home late last night. I’ve already asked to be booked in for another few visits - no hesitation in asking Jules to come again 😻
We went away for a week and needed someone to feed our 1 year old cat, Figgy. We were so nervous as this was our first time leaving her, and were worried as she is a rescue. I stumbled across Jules when searching for a cat sitter, and I am SO glad we chose her! She came twice daily to feed Figgy and went above and beyond by sending us pictures and updates as to how Figgy was. We will 100% be using her again and highly recommend her services. Thank you so much for putting an anxious cat owners heart at rest, Jules!
Thank you for looking after Milo & Lilo so well! Jules did a great job including grooming the cats & emptying the postbox daily I would certainly recommend her to friends & neighbours
Jules looks after my pet rats when I'm away, and they're always happy and relaxed when I come back. Reliable, friendly and great service! Highly recommended.
Julie is amazing! My dog Clover adores Julie and looks forward to her visiting every week! For me it is piece of mind whilst working and I cannot recommend highly enough!!
Thank you so much for looking after Tootsie, Darwin, Mooncake and Lily whilst we were away. We were very happy knowing they were home and being looked after in their own surroundings - such a relief. Thank you also for your consideration and organisation - everything was nice and tidy on our return.
I always take my guinea pigs to Hop & Hound as Katie is really experienced and knowledgeable with animals and nothing is ever too much trouble. I wouldn't take them anywhere else, as they have so much space and I'm completely confident they will be well cared for and loved while I'm away.
Katie looked after our 3 house bunnies while we were away on holiday. She made sure she knew everything about them, nothing was too much trouble and she catered for all their needs. I would definitely recommend Hop and Hounds and I’m happy for our bunnies to be left in Katie’s care when we next go away.
Our 4 guinea pigs stayed here over Christmas and we are very glad we chose fur friends. The accomodation was more than big enough for our 4 with tunnels and hides for them. Katie was very good at communicating and the price was very reasonable. Highly recommended.
Our young baby bunnies went to stay here and were very happy and well cared for. Katie sent us some pictures during the week to reassure us all was well and when we picked them up they seemed settled and content. We will be booking them in next time we go away, thanks Katie!
Highly recommend Furfriends boarding, the care given to the animals is fantastic. Furfriends are responsive with communication, the facilities are good there's lots of space for animals, they always get to know your pet and spend time with them. My two stayed over the summer and were very well looked after, I was very impressed and now their going to stay for Christmas! Thank you Furfriends :)
Katie clearly genuinely likes caring for animals. The quality of care was amazing and our rabbits had a lovely mini break. Would recommend her highly
Super, 5 star care for our two bunnies over Christmas and New Year. Great online booking in and out service with attention to detail regarding vaccinations and dietary requirements too.
Rang, left a VM, no response. Sent a text, got a response a day later, agreed services, then 48 hours before we went away she cancelled saying a family accident had occurred. This may be the case but we had already got a vibe that it might all fall through (you know when you just get a feel that someone is a bit flaky), so I wont be contacting again in future.
Sacha is incredibly reliable. My dog adores her. She’s also always really cheerful when she pick up our dog every day. Never any problems with billing. Also very flexible.
Despite calling twice my call was not returned
Sumi has looked after our two young cats whilst we’ve been away twice now. Being young and only getting used to being outside (and catching birds) they needed a little extra attention. Both times she has done a great job, kept them fed and watered and very happy little cats!
Sumi has looked after our 2 cats for several holidays now. She always sends us updates, along with photos, which is so nice to have. She has even gone above and beyond and watered some indoor plants due to the sudden hot weather! Sumi is totally trustworthy, reliable and caring and is absolutely the best person to look after your animals. Throughly recommended!
We've been using Olson Pet Care for 3 years - Sumi is just amazing, she cares so much. We feel very lucky to have found her - she's trustworthy, reliable and has a fantastic can-do attitude. Sumi has taken the time to get to know us and all our cats and routines. The cats love her and Sumi feels like one of the family. It's a wonderful feeling, knowing that our cats and house are in such safe hands - it means that we can enjoy our trips away without worries. Massive thank you Olson Pet Care!
Sumi always goes beyond what is asked when caring for our cats, whether it’s making sure our elderly cat isn’t too hot/cold on her window ‘throne’ or needs encouragement eating. We always know they will be well cared for.
Sumi has looked after my two shy cats for about three years now when we go on holiday and has been so caring not only feeding cats but offering to water plants as well. Sending updates on how they are with voicemail and video. I know that they are in good hands and are much happier being at home rather than going to a cattery. A great service.
I used Olsen Pet Care recently during a 2 week holiday. I needed some flexibility in the scheduling as I had a son coming intermittently each week. Sumi was flexible and did a great job taking care of the pets and even watering my plants. Will definitely use again.
Sumi is great, you can tell she really cares for animals and our cats were left in the perfect hands! Wouldn’t hesitate to use again, thank you.
What can I say about Sumi...she is wonderful, pure gold. I can go away knowing that my two boys are in good hands; they are well cared for and even though they don't like anybody, they like Sumi, so for me that says it all. Would recommend her 110%.
Sumi has looked after my furbabies whenever I've been away. She looks after them as if they were her own, loving them and meeting their needs. She sends photos and videos to keep you updated. She really goes above and beyond, to not only make the animals feel safe and secure but also to make sure that uou feel secure and csn enjoy your time away. I wouldn't trust anyone else.
Sumi goes above and beyond and has a real rapport with cats. Ours are always happy and relaxed when we come home and our plants are always happy and healthy too.
Wonderful branch of the greyhound trust that rehomes retired racers. They really know their stuff.
