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!
Great care taken with my two dogs very much home from home for my dogs. Highly recommend
Jackie is fantastic! Our previous sitter let us down at the last minute and Jackie was able to step in and help look after our dog Tom while we were away. Very Professional and very welcoming to us and Tom. Jackie sent us updates while we were away to let us know how Tom was. It was very clear when we collected Tom that he had a great time and had definitely been well looked after by Jackie.
My boys have the best time with Jackie, they love the walks through the fields and playing in the river and being able to have naps on the sofa (something they are never allowed at home lol). They come home in a grump because they want to stay longer!
Our old fella Buster has the best care here meaning we can relax on our holidays and he looks like he's had his own holiday when we pick him up, relaxed and refreshed 😊 would recommend 😀 …
Great experience, home from home for the dogs
Leafields have looked after my dog for weekly day care and occasional boarding for almost 2 years, where they have treated her like one of their own. My dog isn’t the most sociable with other dogs, but Leafields worked with her to match her with a small group of suitable dogs, like they do for all dogs who attend, and she clearly enjoys her time there. Leafields is small enough that you get to know everybody by name and they promote dog cuddles at lunch time, but large enough that they run a very tight ship. The staff and owners at Leafields are clear dog lovers and they create a great environment for the dogs - I would not hesitate in recommending them.
Our two literally can’t wait to get out the car & join in the Leafields fun! Whether day care or boarding, they return home thoroughly worn out & incredibly relaxed. Can’t speak highly enough of the entire team & facilities at Leafields.
The team at Leafields are fantastic. They always look after our dog to the best of their ability. He loves staying there. Our dog has a number of health issues, but the Leafields team always follow our requests and even administer his medication. Thoroughly recommended.
I can't praise Leafields and it's staff enough! My Labrador has come home in excellent condition. He is so toned from the excercise that he has needed. This establishment loves dogs and looks after them with care and all their needs are met. It . You can't get better. The set up is amazing. Definitely 5 stars. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing set up and run by people that absolutely love dogs. If you are looking for somewhere to board your dog for the day or whilst away I can thoroughly recommend Leafields!
We have used Leafields twice now and it’s brilliant. More than enough space for my lab, Monty, to get his exercise during the day and play with other dogs which means he is enjoying himself and getting worn out. Claire takes a proper control of all the dogs and I absolutely trust the set up at the kennels. Oh and if my review isn’t enough to convince you about this place, Monty genuinely seemed gutted when I picked him up! Great kennels.
Very happy we found Leafields. Our little pup has been made very welcome on her days there. Suspect she has more fun playing with all her new friends than she does at home with us.
We are fortunate that we don’t live far away from leafields. Bell joined about 8 months ago. We felt it would be beneficial for her development especially socializing with other dogs, playing, and being away from home. Bell can’t wait to get through the gate and once she sees me packing her lunch box that’s it she out by the car ready to go. We are bells third home being a lockdown purchase that became a reality that doggie need a lot of attention. She is a lovable girl full of Labrador energy and fun. Claire and all the staff at leighfields are caring, loving, and offer a very safe environment for bell with lots of new experiences. Recently we took part in a doggie first aid course by a local vet, this has proved invaluable and what I learnt that day I have shared with other dog owners, on the course we were joined by Claire and her staff, all up to date training that we were very lucky to be able to join. We have just arrived home after four days in a lovely dog friendly hotel in sandsend with Bell. She dined with us every meal in the restaurant, no problem. We met many dogs strolling around Whitby and it was a pleasure to walk with her, I feel leighfields had played a huge part in the bell we have today. Thankyou Claire and staff. X Maggie Pete and bell 🔔
We were slightly apprehensive about leaving our young puppy for the first time whilst we went abroad on holiday but after an initial meeting with Claire I was completely reassured that Merlin would be extremely well cared for. Claire has given so much thought to her provision that she can provide high quality care and supervision for the range of dogs who may be residing at Leafields. Both outdoor and indoor spaces are safe, clean and stimulating or restful. Merlin returned to us after a week a very contented and rather exhausted puppy….a bit like a child going on a school residential! He such a great time with lots of new doggy friends, which is so important for his socialisation too. Thank you to all the Ball family for making him so welcome.
Our old Labrador was a recent visitor for a full groom, the friendly staff coped well with his funny ways and we left happy with a clean and nice smelling dog, yes it was the same dog lol. Will be using Leafields again.
Picked our 4 dogs up today from their first stay - very impressed with the service, the dogs were well cared for and came home smelling lovely, it’s the longest we’ve ever left them and we finally feel we have found a kennels we trust and are happy with. Sally is kind and approachable - we will be using the kennels again next time we go away!
Second time our Alice has stayed here and I thoroughly recommend the Kennels. Sally is so friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
Bought a gorgeous border terrier for the farm. The family were very caring, obviously spent lots of time with the pups. Would definitely recommend x
A very big thank you to Sally who looked after our 2 for quite an extended stay. They came out better dogs than when they went in to be with her :) I cannot praise Newlands highly enough.
I had a look around and was very happy with what I saw. Nice clean large outside kennels in a row with a small heated bedroom on the back. They had a radio on for the dogs too ! Huge field for dogs to run in. I booked my dogs in straight away. I also bought a puppy from them and she is wonderful. My dogs love her. Jak is a very friendly polite man and I will feel very confident leaving my dogs there.
My Spaniels always come here, & I don't feel bad leaving them!! Sally and family always friendly and helpful. Always the first call I make if we are lucky enough to have booked time away!
Mac and Maisie were very happy there, Sally is very caring , and I would highly recommend Newlands, and will definitely be back with my 2 dogs.
Our dogs love it there. We never have to worry about their care.
The team are fantastic with the dogs, our miniature schnauzer loves his visits to Newlands.
Have brought our 2 Puggles here for years, they love it & are well looked after by Sally & Phil.
I see Louise's dogs playing in her back yard quite often. They run around and play together so well. You can just stand there and smile. Most of the time she has same dogs over and over again. I think that says it all. She is someone you can trust. I would highly recommend her.
Louise has cared for our two dogs on numerous occasions and we would highly recommend her services. Louise genuinely cares for the dogs she looks after and they really do become part of her family. The regular photos and updates of our dogs enjoying their long walks and fuss are fantastic to see and very reassuring to know they are happy and safe. Thank you.
After the stress of a previous unreliable dog walker, it has taken a bit of time for me to trust my dog to someone new. Louise has taken time and trouble to get to know our black Lab Retriever, so that she can provide the best care. I'm loving receiving little video clips of our pooch thoroughly enjoying himself whilst out on walks with Louise, even though I am stuck at work ! Would thoroughly recommend.
Family looked after my lab retriever while I went away for a week. Arranged a daily walk with Louise from Stafford My Best Friend - the dog had a blast and I enjoyed my holiday knowing he was in safe hands. Thoroughly recommend 👏 …
This lady who looked after my dog is so good. You can tell straight away that she is very good for what she does because dogs just love her and listen to her. Just like to say thank you and I will be using your services again.
With Bella being a bouncy boistrous bear, i was anxious about her 1st stay away without me. . i had nothing to worry about, louis coped with her very well, and as the days passed Bella learnt how to play in a controlled way with other dogs 😍 i loved all the pup-updates she deffinetely cared for bella as if she was her own. thank you x …
Fantastic service. Thank you so much Louise for all your help with our labradors. Can not reccommend enough. Love recieving pictures & videos of the days adventures. My dogs absolutely love going here.
She went out of her way to help us out today and genuinely cares about dogs and their owners. I am very grateful - thank you so much Louise.
Would definitely use again
Fantastic service.
Dogs just had their first half day stay and first time in a kennel. The owner is amazing and so are the staff. The place itself is probably one of the nicest kennels I've seen. 100% recommend and so do the dogs!
My little baby has just had a week holiday at bramshall kennels whilst I was abroad. Absolutely couldn't recommend enough! She was so relaxed ate all her meals. Did not even bother whilst being dropped off. I was updated every other day. The kennels are kept so clean and all the staff especially the owner are amazing. I cannot thank them all enough for taking such brilliant care of my fur baby. Will definitely be only using them from now on.
I thoroughly recommend Bramshall Boarding Kennels, I’ve literally just picked up my 3 dogs and they were super happy and were well looked after. Sarah is super lovely, professional and we felt at ease as soon as we met Sarah and saw the kennels. Well designed, clean and I will not be going elsewhere! I would 100% recommend Sarah and team to care for my dogs. Sarah kept in touch to let us know all 3 dogs were well. Super chuffed that you’re only around the corner and fabulous! Thanks Sarah and team! 😀
Cannot recommend Bramshall boarding kennels enough. I use them for boarding when we go away and also use the day care facility. Max and Paddy are always happy to go there. I can enjoy my holiday knowing that they are being well looked after.
Came along to have a look around to board our 3 dogs at the opening times stated on website. I had messaged on 11th may to ask if we could pop up with no response. On arrival at the gate, we were turned away. Apparently, you can only look round by appointment. I told the lady I spoke to we had come from Stafford (24-mile round trip). Still told we couldn't look round as it's feeding time, even though the website says kennels is open. If you have to book an appointment to view then it appears you have something to hide. I as a dog owner who has worked in rescue kennels myself want to know that my dogs are safe and that I can view kennels during opening hours without the need for an appointment. Very poor customer service. I will board my dogs elsewhere, somewhere that has an open door policy during opening hours.
Excellent and friendly establishment. Our Cocker Spaniel is happy there after trying out other kennels in the area that didn’t suit him. The staff are always very friendly, obviously love dogs and treat our dogs very well, highly recommended.
We’ve used Bramshall Kennels on multiple occasions, from being the first boarders to now being frequent users. Now we can’t recommend Sarah and the team highly enough. From the minute you walk in you can see the love that they have for all dogs. With the Dog rooms being immaculately clean and airy, along with the amazing indoor and outdoor space being safe and secure for all shapes and sizes….Give them a try, you won’t regret it….
Lovely friendly and clean place.always welcoming and the dogs are happy which is the main thing! We come here a lot!
We used Bramshall for our puppy for the first week that they opened. We had a tour of the kennels before they opened and the whole team were so supportive and put us at ease. We had regular updates how she was getting on and the team were great at putting our minds at ease. The staff when we picked her up we’re lovely, and had clearly spend time with her as they knew her nature. They were understanding of dogs needs and had done what was best for her whilst staying there. She was groomed before we got there to pick her up - it’s so refreshing that she came back not smelling! Would definitely use this kennels again and I am sure our dog would love to go back there too! Thanks so much for looking after her.
Fabulous kennels and doggy daycare facility. I regularly take both my dogs to Bramshall Boarding Kennels & doggy daycare Sarah and her team are welcoming and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them. Excellent customer service and easy booking through the website. I always feel I can go away and not have to worry about my dogs. Thank you so much. Sonya. Pippa🐶 & Lilly🐶
My dog loves going here, she runs in every time and I always see photos of her relaxing and enjoying her time. Nothing is too much for the owners and I am so grateful to have found somewhere my dog can enjoy staying.
Brilliant place! As a dog owner you want to make sure, that when you go away, you leave your dog (in my case 2 dogs) in the safe, friendly and home like environment - and that’s what I think Walls4Paws is. I visited many kennels and none of them came even close to what Walls4Paws is offering. Beautiful setup, great outdoor space, freedom, daily updates and comfy sofas:) It’s very reassuring to know my dogs are looked after so well while I am away. I would definitely recommend it!
My friend left her two dogs there for three weeks. Went with her to pick them up. Beautiful place, I'd have gladly stayed there myself. Run by a vet, so the dogs were very well looked after. Lots of grounds for them to run around, but all fenced off and supervised. She was extremely pleased and would highly recommend the place.
Absolutely wonderful place to send your dogs. Sarah and her team are fabulous and our dogs always come back happy and love to stay at Walls4Paws. When we have a holiday so do the dogs. Highly recommend.
My dog seems very happy after time I collected him. Very nice spacious place. It's way better than dumping your dog in a tiny room (kennels). I'm glad to find this place as it does feels like "home to home" :) So far, I use them 3 times...no issues so far :D
Leaving one star is too generous. Sarah, the owner of walls4paws was the rudest person I’ve ever met in my life. Arrived at the house at 9.10 rather than 9am for drop off due to traffic which we explained and apologised for. She was extremely rude and unwelcoming on arrival. Our dog is on a medical diet and being trained in routine and eats his dinner around 5pm. We asked if he could be fed at this time, she refused and said she will feed the dogs at the same time because she will need more staff to do this request and said “ I won’t give myself more work”. I was so shocked by this that me and my sister were left speechless. When speaking to us, her hand gestures were very rude and dismissive, overall a very uncomfortable woman to be around. We had booked tickets for Alton Towers and we are not from the area so had no option but to leave our puppy here, for this reason we stayed very calm and collective and tolerated the disgusting behaviour and attitude of this person. When she took our puppy through the gate and removed his lead, she handled his neck very rough and huffed and puffed at him because of his excitement to play with the other dogs. On our meet and greet, we were greeted by Spencer who was so lovely. He explained everything so well and made us feel so comfortable about leaving our puppy cavapoo with this company, unfortunately after meeting his boss, we will never leave our puppy here again and would urge anyone with a small dog not too as her handling is very bad. We have a small Cavapoo and German Shepard, we have visited many dog boarding homes over the years and NEVER come across somebody this terrible.
I used walls4paws as a one off as I was staying nearby for a week. I could not believe how rude and aggressive Sarah, the owner was. Never in all the years that I’ve used dog boarding services have I come across someone who has quite literally left me speechless in how ill-mannered and unprofessional she was. She clapped her hands at me whilst saying ‘come on, hurry up chop chop’ when I had arrived - before I’d even got to her gate with my puppy to say hello. I ignored this. We were told on our meet and greet that they were totally flexible with drop off and pick up times, just to ‘let them know’ so we did, the pick up time was extended by 30 mins. Sarah’s attitude to this was shocking. She responded with ‘so I’ll just rearrange all my staff then shall I?’ I felt so uncomfortable as you don’t expect someone to speak to you in this way, I was made to feel like I was being told off. I tried to explain as politely as I could that we were told the timings would be flexible, and that I called 4 times with no answer, she just huffed and puffed, rolling her eyes. Very awkward encounter. I told Sarah I would be leaving her a bad review, she seemed unbothered but this and said ‘that’s fine, I will just say you didn’t use our services’ - I’ve noticed in other reviews she has also said the same to them. I would not recommend leaving your puppies and dogs with such an unpleasant woman.
They don't take intact dogs. However, this is not made clear on the website (except in item 13 of T+C), nor on the extensive and detailed on line form where this information might be helpful. It took a while to complete the form, having to find chip number and other details as required fields. There is a field where you can state whether the dog is intact, but this does not save you from spending more time completing the very detailed information required. There is then a wait for a reply to tell you that they don't take intact dogs. Hopefully the owners can change the website as a consideration to potential customers.
Ripley has spent another doggy holiday at this great place. Great to know she is having a fun time whilst we are away. The photo and video clips are a bonus to be able to see what your pouch is up to! Plenty of open space and freedom .. doggy paradise !!
Amazing homely place for dogs to stay with caring and friendly staff who love dogs. Every time I visit all the dogs are really happy and enjoying the company, its like a kindergarten for dogs where they have friends to play with instead of being home alone.
This Lady is a GENUINE carer! I had to take my dog to the vet urgently and had no transport, even the taxi refused! The carer was with me in 10 MINUTES and resolved my problem immediately! Highly recommended!
Absolutely fantastic experience. This is my dogs second home. They love coming here. The kennels are immaculate, and the daily walks and enrichment are brilliant. Look no further if you want your dogs to be looked after as if they were at home.
Always fully informed and consulted. Dog always happy to go.
I recently had the pleasure of using Kingstone Pet Boarding twice in the last few months and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care my cat Mercedes received. From the moment I first contacted Nicola she was incredibly friendly and accommodating, ensuring all of Mercedes' needs were met. Nicola’s warmth and professionalism made the entire process smooth and stress-free. During both of Mercedes' stays it was clear she was in the best hands. The cattery itself is immaculate and cozy and Nicola’s genuine love for animals shines through in the care she provides. Mercedes came back happy and content which speaks volumes about the level of attention and affection she received. Knowing that Mercedes was so well cared for allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our recent holidays without any worries. I can’t recommend Kingstone Pet Boarding highly enough. If you’re looking for a safe, loving and nurturing environment for your feline friend, this is the place to go! Thank you.
My 2 guinea pigs and hamster were left for just over a week in Nicola's very capable hands. This is my 2nd time of leaving our furry friends at Kingstone but it definitely won't be the last. Very secure accommodation, spotlessly clean, you can see how well the animals are looked after. 100% recommend. Thank you Nicola from Piper, Roman and Scratch xxx
It's been a while since my cats have boarded, and never here. So I was confident and relieved we found Kingstone. They both ate well, were comfortable and happy during their stay last week. Can't thank the staff enough for looking after them both so well. Thank you.
The facilities for cats are fantastic, spacious and light with inside and outside areas, it’s perfect. Our cat Wendy loves her holidays here. Nicola is very friendly and personable and always helps to make my children feel at ease when leaving their beloved cat, we wouldn’t go anywhere else 😊 …
Billy has just had his 2nd holiday of the year, we know he is a happy boy and very well looked after. Nicola and the team are superb and we love the photographs and updates we receive from them. Wouldn’t take Billy anywhere else xx
Nicola and her team are amazing! I'm so happy to be able to leave my cat with her when I'm away, as I don't worry about anything. Luna is always well cared for and I couldn't recommend them highly enough 👍🤗 …
I know that most people reading this are probably well aware of what Kingstone Pet Boarding are about and how good they are, but I am directing this at those people who may be checking out the site for the first time to see what it is like and are comparing The Cat Flap against other sites. This is for you. 😊 There is no comparison! If you have Cats or Small Animal Pets then I can not recommend The Cat Flap highly enough. We would never leave our Fur Babies anywhere else. Nicola and the Team really do care. It's not just a Business, it's a truly caring environment. Too far to travel? How far is too far for 5☆ treatment for your Furry or non Furry Family Member. Remember it's not just a Cattery and Small Animal Retreat. It's a Home from Home. They also provide Spa Treatment and Gourmet food for that special treat. Our Fur Babies had the Gourmet Treat and really enjoyed it. The video and pictures on the site say it all. Sam, Sox & Paris send their thanks to Nicola and the Team for looking after them on their break and they are already looking forward to their November Holiday. ❤❤❤
We left our two young cats at Kingstone for 9 days whilst we were on holiday. My cats have been away from home previously but it was their first time boarding at Kingstone. I immediately felt at ease when I visited the cattery initially & met Nicola. My cats were happy during their stay. I received photos, updates and videos throughout their stay so I could see that they were obviously enjoying their time at the cattery. It was evident that that both cats had bonded with Nicola, who fed them, played with them and cleaned their litter trays. I don’t think they wanted to come home! I would 100% recommend Kingstone to anyone who had to leave their pet. They will be well looked after and cared for by Nicola and her team!
We were really worried about our boi's first time in a cattery, but as soon as I dropped him off I felt totally reassured that he'd be very well looked after, and he was. The place was spotless and it's clear Nicola & team love what they do. We will use Kingstone Pet Boarding again in future without a doubt. Thanks Nicola & team!
Absolutely fantastic service, our two cats were very well looked after and had all love they could need. Really loved the photos and videos that were put on for us . Will be back again, thankyou so much Nicola and staff ☺️
