Petpals Amber Valley, Derbyshire

  • The only place we will leave our beloved black labrador Charlie is with Dave and Fiona who have him to stay every christmas for just over a week.He is kept to the same routine as if he were still at home and is treated as one of the family.We are kept in touch with text messages during our holiday if requested and he always comes home with his christmas present from fiona! Thanks again Kate Ian and Chloe x kate mccauley
  • Pop has visited several kennels and come home an unhappy pup but after his stay with Barbara and the Pet Pals team he came home the happy dog we love to see. Pop has clearly enjoyed his stay and is sleeping to catch up on his energy, either that or he is love sick for Lola who he played with solidly for 2 days! Thank you Pet Pals xxx Rebecca Naylor
  • After visiting various kennels, I came to the conclusion that we wold not be having a holiday for a while because our dogs, Cherry & Lucy, would not like staying at any of them. However fate stepped in one day whilst walking them in Ashover. I happened to bump in to Fiona who was out doing her dog walking in the same area. We got chatting and she told me all about Petpals. After looking at the website, we decided that this was perhaps what we required, and they went for an overnight stay to see how they went on. However we needn't have worried and now Cherry & Lucy go on their own holiday to Fiona and Dave's home whenever we go on ours. From an overnight stay to a fortnight away, Fiona & Dave have always been friendly, professional and very accommodating, and we would not have any hesitation in recommending them. Thanks for everything - Sue & Steve Marsden, Ashover Hay. Sue Marsden
  • Dave and Fiona have walked my Golden Retriever Holi for over a year now. They always take really good care of her, and she love's to play with her pals and can't wait to jump in the car/van. I would highly recommend Dave and Fiona to care for your beloved 4 legged friend and they are always happy to help with any change of arrangements. Thank you. Louise x Louise
  • When my dog goes to Pet Pals he has a good time, is treated well and is looked after properly. He has a great time while his is there and is exhausted when he gets home. I know that my dog is cared for very well. He even recognises the van as it goes past our house! A brilliant service. Thank you. Maria x Maria
  • Since moving to Derbyshire and having never used a cattery when we went away as we lived close to family, it was great to find a service such as petpals to take the worry out of leaving our cat in a strange place whilst we were away. When Fiona and Dave took over the Amber Valley area we were at first anxious that the levels of service would change, however after an initial visit to our home by Fiona and Dave and after meeting Leo, our cat, I was more than comfortable with leaving her in their care. We have found the service to be even better than we expected. My house keys are left with them and I know, that if required, and more than often at short notice, they will always be there to look after Leo, my 14 year old cat. Fiona and David even ensure that my household plants are kept watered, and alive on our return, which is more than even my family members could be persuaded to do whilst we were away. Nothing is too much trouble. All in all I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you for the great Shelley
  • we put our 9 month german shepard LILLY in the trusted care of Fiona and Dave on a regular basis and when they come to collect her she cant wait to get to them.They are willing to take LILLY at short notice and have helped her along with the assisstance of CHESTER their own dog to socialise and become more acceptable to our community neighbourhood.We would highly reccomend the services they offer along with the free knowledge and advice given on your pets welfare to make live easier for you and your pet.They are extremely professional in the way they operate and you feel safe for your pets welfare while they are with them be it for a day visit or over night stays.Kennels are a thing of the past since we have been so fortunate to come across Fiona and Dave chris/pauline mcgrath
  • Fiona and Dave walk Archie (our German Shorthaired Pointer). Being walked by them has really helped Archie to be more relaxed around other dogs. He comes back after a long walk almost "smiling" as he's enjoyed it so much and is worn out! I have found Fiona and Dave to be on hand whenever we've needed them which is very reassuring to know. They've really helped us to be able to keep Archie (and not have to re-home him) due to an illness in the family. They have an excellent understanding of dogs and their needs and have a genuine love for animals. I feel very relaxed around them and have no problem in them letting themselves in my house to take Archie out. They even came in heavy, heavy snow!! We go away on holiday knowing Archie is happy with them and that really does mean a lot to us and our children. We find the in-house boarding an excellent service as Archie doesn't cope with kennels very well. I would recommend them to everyone. Thank you both! Mary-Ann Smedley
  • Dave walks our greyhound, Cleo, twice a week and has also been happy to come in and help us out at short notice. Being walked by Dave has been great for helping Cleo to socialise with other dogs - a task which other people were nervous of doing but which Dave and Fiona happily took on. Cleo always comes back well walked and happy and seems very disappointed on the days when she is only walked by me! I can highly recommend Dave and Fiona for a professional and reliable service. Anne Watson

Petpals Basingstoke, Hampshire

  • Paul recently looked after our two cats for two weeks whilst we went on holiday. I was a bit worried about leaving them home alone but equally didn\'t want them to be cold in a cattery. They were extremely well cared for and happy on our return. Oscar looked really well and had put on weight (he\'s older and had been a bit run-down). Paul even watered the plants! I wouldn\'t hesitate to use Petpals again, thanks Paul. Sally Mathews
  • Our two boxers have been with a number of dog walkers over the years - Paul I think is rapidly becoming their favorate! They are always happy to see him, they are back in the house clean and dry and best of all, they are tired and happy to settle down in the evening - suggesting they are getting plenty of exercise. It\'s a big thing handing over the keys to your house and the leads to your dogs - we are more than happy to do both with paul. Chris
  • Having recently starting using the Petpals service in Basingstoke my expectations for the level of care of our Labrador, Baxter, has been surpassed in every way. The whole process has also helped socialise Baxter, a 9 month old, with other dogs that attend the daily walk. I would whole-heartedly recommend Paul Kelly from Petpals Basingstoke to anyone looking for pair of qualified and safe hands for their valued pet. Malcolm Puddefoot
  • Really impressed with the sevice. Bodie had a great time by the look of the photos. Bodie looks forward to meeting Paul again for more adventures. Thanks (Ps sorry if this dupilcate) Louise Wigmore
  • JB was very happy after his walks on days that i was away from home. It was very useful that i could contact Paul the evening before to confirm or re-arrange the next days dog walking. I am very happy with the service and will continue to use Petpals as the need arises. The pictures on flickr are a really good idea. Thanks. Tim Tim Bryant
  • Excellent service; really impressed with the attention paid to both the cats and the property. We will definitely use you again and recommend you to people. Chris Williams
  • Petpals have provided an excellent service walking our two dogs. The dogs enjoy themselves, are well-exercised and dried off when returning. Thank you Paul! Guy Henshaw
  • Hello Paul, thank you so much for coming around and feeding them and thank you for texting me to letting me know how they are. Probably going again sometime in new year will give you a call nearer the time. Take care and thanks once again. Tracey Anns Tracey Anns
  • We had total peace of mind that Mr Sparkes was in good hands, fab communication, liked the daily log and the fact we got texts to keep us informed. Totally recommend Paul & Petpals Basingstoke to anyone who needs their precious ones looked after. Simon
  • Excellent service, throughly recommend Paul and the walking service. Always look forward to seeing what Ellie has been up to during the day and love the photos. Used other walking services before but none compare...Tracey Tracey Chapman
  • Great service, I like knowing exactly when Suggs has been picked up, dropped off and what he has been up to. Love the photos - they cheer me up! it's great to see Suggs out with other dogs and having a great time. Worth every penny. Thank you Kirsty Cato
  • We thought your service was beyond fantastic, great pre-communication, felt very safe leaving not only my house keys but my feline babies with you. Suberb contact whilst on holiday and cats seemed very happy when we got back.... cant recommened highly enough... will feel much happier booking a holiday in future. Vicky
  • Thank you so much Paul for looking after the "zoo" whilst I was away. Great job, lots of mouths to feed! Thanks for keeping me informed, was really able to relax and have a great holiday. Highly recommended and I hope you will consider taking them on again in the future... Cheers Don Don
  • Paul , Thank you so much for looking after Chocolat for me while i was away last week . We came back to a very happy cat who seemed not to have missed us at all , so much better for her than the whole cattery experience !. Chocolat looks forward to seeing you again in November! Kind Regards , Sally Sally Gott
  • We were overjoyed with the service of Petpals Basingstoke, when we first met Paul we knew that our Busta was going to be in safe hands for the weekend, and when Busta returned from his holiday he slept from the moment he arrived almost through to the next day, which in Busta's world is a sign of a very good time. Thank you Petpals and especially Paul who made his stay a most enjoyable one ! Jess & Kev Jessica McBain

Petpals Blaby, Leicestershire

  • For the past six years Pet Pals (Blaby) have exercised our English Setter Dog and when necessary, cared for our cats. Barbara and her daughter Laura offer a very caring service. Attention to detail is spot on and recently when our now elderly Setter was unwell whilst out on his walk both my husband and self were contacted immediately so that any necessary action could be taken. Setters are noted for going their own way, and ours certainly does that, but, as a result of Laura's patient work with him his basic obedience work has been re-enforced so that he is able to enjoy off the lead time on his favourite walks. She has even managed to teach him to use a ramp for getting in and out of the vehicle that takes him to his walk venue - no mean feat! As we prepare to take on our next English Setter Puppy, Barbara has already been in touch so that we can, together, plan for this. Over the years we have recommended Pet Pals to friends and colleagues and the feedback from them has always been positive. Susan and Andrew Hall
  • I would just like to reiterate our comments about the service we received in June when looking after our precious cat 'Skittles'. As you are aware, we were a little nervous as previously a neighbour had looked after Skittles. However, after your visit to meet Skittles and go through the questionnaire, Dave and I both felt really secure in the knowledge that Skittles would be well looked after, and that also our house was in good hands. You demonstrated personal interest in Skittles and her habits and I could see how you approached her was done with the utmost care. She took to you immediately. It was lovely to receive the couple of text messages whilst we were away to let us know that Skittles was well and happy. We are so delighted with your service that we would like to book you again for our holiday in September. I will send the dates e-mail. Thank you so much. Joyce and Dave Billington

Petpals Bournemouth & Poole

  • We just wanted to say thankyou for looking after Charlie so well. He obviously really enjoyed himself, and knowing that he was safe and having a good time, meant that we could enjoy our holiday too. Boyd Family
  • Thank you for looking after my doggie, and a special thanks to your boarding lady. We will board Michael with you again. He seemed happy when my husband picked him up. S. Press
  • To Nigel and all at Petpals, Thank you so much for looking after Rocksea over the last 3 weeks. It is an excellent service, with great customer relations. She has been well cared for and I am very pleased and thankful. It is great to know I can call on you in the future. Sarah and Rocksea
  • I would not hesitate in recommending you to those looking for a reliable and friendly pet care service. Thank you for ensuring Katie and Jade have been well cared for on their enjoyable beach and woodland walks. K. Hext
  • Peace of mind knowing that Alfie is being walked, while I am out at work and the house is secure
  • Very friendly and smart
  • We will certainly use Petpals again and have already recommended them
  • Very professional, great service and flexible services at sensible prices
  • It's good to know that Nigel and his team are security checked, insured, trained and genuine pet lovers
  • We got Nigel's details via the vets
  • When they work with local pet welfare groups it is very re-assuring
  • Even my rabbit, which is a little hectic, took to Nigel. Great service
  • I will not hesitate to recommend your services to my friends.

Petpals Bracknell

  • Excellent, cat sitting visits arranged within days of initial enquiry
  • Very good first impression, your pet taxi is an excellent idea and I will be using Petpals again
  • Excellent, Petpals were helpful and reassuring about looking after our cat, rabbit and two guinea pigs while we are away in the summer
  • Very professional and friendly home and pet sitting service
  • I will not hesitate to recommend your dog walking services to my friends
  • Very thorough and professional. Seeing how Petpals were with our cats at the care assessment put our minds at ease
  • We were very, very happy with the cat sitting service - especially the daily log - good to know our cats were being so well looked after

Petpals Bury & Bolton

  • Karen is absolutely fantastic! I know I can go on holiday and know that my cats will be looked after, checked on, fed and I get updates as well while on hols which is great! Doesn't stop me missing them but makes me feel less guilty about leaving them. I would highly recommend Karen and her team as it's a lot better for the pets rather than being locked in a cage. H. Idle
  • I'd like to thank Karen and her colleagues at Petpals (Bury) for doing a great job in looking after my babies. Snowball and Purdy (cats), plus Wilson the dippy Cocker Spaniel. I don't drive so it's a nightmare trying to get organised and get them in Kennels. It was so reassuring to know that the pets wouldn't have to go through all the stress of the cattery/kennels just for a couple of nights. Karen was helpful, professional and you get the feeling she'll love and look after your pet as much as you do. Also nice to know that someone was keeping and eye on the house. A big thanks from all of us! C. Denton
  • Thanks again for the wonderfully professional service.
  • Thank you for being Carla's pal while we were away.
  • We are even going abroad for the first time in years now I know my dogs are happy.
  • It's so nice to us to be able to relax and know that the dogs and birds are being cared for - makes our trips without them a little easier.
  • I am really pleased. Molly now travels in the car much better and gets on with other dogs more than she used to.
  • We were delighted with the professional courtesy and handling your company provided while we were on holiday and this is why we have chosen you for long term assistance.
  • Truly brilliant service. The girls are reliable and I have complete peace of mind that Charlie is ok and looked after! Brilliant brilliant brilliant! Sarah Morris

Petpals Buxton, Derbyshire

  • Thank you for looking after our two cats Mustard and Tiger Lily so beautifully
  • Thank you very much for taking such good care of cats Willow, Cobweb and our Rabbit and watering the plants! We will definitely book you again and have highly recommended you to friends
  • Our Dog Tally seems to have enjoyed her week with you, she's becoming much livelier when out walking. Also thanks for the daily updates, we really appreciate getting them

Petpals Cardiff, Wales

  • Maxine has walked our dog Roxy for the last 4 years, she is very reliable and always does her best to accomadate last minute walks. She is brilliant with Roxy who can be a handful at times, it is obvious to see that she genuinely cares about the animals and is comitted to her job. She is professional and dedicated, we don\'t know what we would do without her! Eve Cocks
  • I should also like to reiterate my comments for the work that Jackie does in walking and looking after Barney. She is absolutely smashing and always leaves us a lovely note about where Barney\'s been on his walk. She also helped us out in an emergency recently by boarding Barney when we had no alternative. Can\'t recommend her highly enough. Geoff Lewis
  • We can highly recommend Petpals Cardiff. Maxine does a great job for us. She takes our dog, Barney the border terrier, out for walks twice a week and we get a short written report after every trip which our daughter (aged 5) loves to read when she gets home. Barney must love it because he's always shattered in the evening after being out in the day. Barney is a very important part of our family and we wouldn't entrust him to anyone else other than Maxine. Geoff Lewis
  • I have two beautiful yet demanding cats called Sahara and Paris, both maine coons. As wonderful as my girls are they both have health issues ranging from having no tear ducts to having chronic IBS. Like most people I have to go away and leave my girls for periods of time and there is no-one I would rather leave them with. In particular one of my cats required consistent treatment to her eyes whilst I was away. I was slightly concerned that her condition might have deteriorated while I was away, but upon my return I found that her eyes were in excellent condition due to Maxine and Jackie's conscientious treatment. I can't recommend them highly enough as there attention to detail is excellent. Maxine and Jackie are kind,friendly, and wonderful individuals and truly put the care of your pets first. Thank you both for years of peace of mind. Sezen Griffiths
  • This is one of the best services we have used. Maxine is great. Really professional and has never let us down. Our dog loves her and gets really excited when she knows she's off for a walk with Maxine. I would highly recommend petpals. We can't fault it. Jo
  • A friendly, reliable, professional service. Our 18 month old Red Setter is delighted to be part of the Petpals pack! Thank you Jo Jo Cooney
  • I have used Maxine's dog walking and boarding services on a regular basis since Ruby our treasured Springer Spaniel came to live with us about 18mths ago. The service is second to none and I would highly recommend it! Ruby regularly day boards with Jackie and has also boarded with her for a week while we went on holiday. I was so anxious about leaving her, however I needn't have had any worries-Jackie provided a 'home from home' environment where she was cared for as if she was one of her own dogs. She had lots of fun, plenty of exercise and was extremely well looked after. Maxine and Jackie have provided a professional caring service which I would recommend to anyone and shall continue to use. Sarah Stevens
  • Stella, our cocker spaniel was six months old when she came to us and took a while to settle in her new home. I work part time and it was too long a day for her to be on her own. Toilet training was also a big problem. She was unhappy and I felt guilty and stressed the days I had to leave her. Pet pals completely changed both our lives for the better. Jackie, Stella's walker (and best friend!) is absolutely wonderful. She does way and above what I expected. The mess in the house stopped immediately (Jackie adjusted Stellas walk time in accordance to her needs). I've been out for a walk with Jackie and the dogs she walks and have seen for myself what a wonderful time they have. They are safe and cared for. I trust her implicitly with both Stella and the security of my home. My husband is happy because I've finally agreed to book a holiday and leave my precious dog! My mind is at ease because she will stay with Jackie and her family (which includes two lovely cocker spaniels).My only concern is that St Caroline Williams
  • Maxine has been walking Macsen,our 3 year old Doberman,daily, for the last year and a half. She has always been very professional and caring,has a great rapport with Macsen and is always there for us, for the extra walks etc. when needed. We would not hesitate in recommending Maxine to any other pet owners. Nigel & Tricia Phillips Nigel Phillips
  • Maxine is absolutely invaluable to me and my 3 year old Lab 'Henry'. She walks him daily and nothing is ever too much trouble for her. She genuinely cares about his welfare and leaves me a note every day to let me know what he has been up too while i'm at work - he clearly has more fun than me! I would recommend the Petpals service to anyone who is away from their pets for a prolonged period of time. Kate Pucknell
  • My 2 cocker spaniels and elderly cat were looked after by Petpals last year. I found them to be very professional and caring with the animals. The dogs were walked regularly at the time I had requested and all animals were healthy etc when we got back from our weeks holiday. Mrs J E Bishop

Petpals Chelmsford

  • We have an 18 month old labradoodle called Boris and since he was 10 weeks old has been visited by Petpals Chelmsford. All the carers are friendly, 100% reliable and most importantly Boris loves them; he not only gets walks, play & training but also lots of cuddles! We cannot fault the fantastic service provided. We would recommend them to anyone and already have to a number of our friends and neighbours! Thank you Peter, Ellie, Tracey, Tammy and Linda! J
  • Petpals Chelmsford has always offered a fantastic service for myself and my Cocker Spaniel, Pepper. My irregular working hours often mean last minute arrangements, and Peter and Ellie always manage to make time to look after Pepper - who loves his Petpals walks! He gets lots of attention and play every time, and on the occasions I have been at home when someone has arrived to walk Pepper, he only has eyes for them! The home boarders are wonderful and it can sometimes be hard to persuade the dog to return home after a night away.... I feel so secure leaving Pepper in Petpals\' safe hands, and their services mean that Pepper has the best quality of life possible at all times. A very, very grateful and satisfied customer - thank you! Francesca
  • Testimonial: \'I have used Petpals Chelmsford since December 2005 and have never been let down, even at short notice. I am the proud owner of two beautiful abyssinian (house) cats, who moved here with me from Bermuda. I feel confident that when I am away \"the boys\" receive the same level of care as I give them. If you are thinking to use Petpals for the first time and would like to speak to another pet owner then feel free to ask Elllie and Peter for my number.\' Vanessa Lewis
  • I would definitely use Petpals Chelmsford again and recommend them with confidence to anyone who cares for their pet's wellbeing. (Cat visit client)
  • It is with great relief that we can now book holidays safe in the knowledge that our cats will be looked after. Thanks again for a great service. (Cat visit client)
  • We want to thank you for your ongoing and excellent care of our dog. From the moment she first met you she was ?putty in your hands. (Regular dog walk client)

Petpals Chichester

  • I've been delighted with the service and kindness of Owen, especially when I recently lost Tom, my great dane. Sorry to say goodbye to Owen, but very much welcome Garry and look forward to working with him. Kind regards Val Harper Val Harper
  • My cat was very happy, as if we hadn't been away; not even sulking on our return!
  • We are delighted to have found such a reliable and friendly local pet sitting service
  • This was the least stressful time away from home I have ever had
  • We know we can rely on Petpals and will be using them again. So glad to have found you.
  • Petpals has given me complete peace of mind. I work long unsociable hours and I always know that Max is being well looked after. Max is always happy and that is the priority.

Petpals Chilterns

  • We have to say a huge thank you to you, that really was 'above and beyond' and we're very grateful to you (Cat visit client)
  • I will recommend you to my family and friends. (Ad-hoc dog walk client)
  • Many thanks, excellent service. (Regular dog walk client)
  • Thank you so much for having Millie at Christmas, it was a real peace of mind to know that she was being looked after so well. (Homeboard client)

Petpals Chingford & Epping Forest

  • I have two cats who hate being in a cattery - I've had Petpals Chingford look after them in the house three times in the last couple of months and can honestly say I'm bowled over by the level of service and would not hesitate to recommend them most highly. Whilst I was originally nervous about having a stranger in the house, having met Julie for a detailed introduction before my first holiday, I was put totally at ease and impressed by the level of detail and security Petpals expect and provide. Coming back from holiday to very relaxed cats and a written daily record of how they were, confirmation that they ate, and knowing that the post was moved everyday was wonderful. Julie has even cleared up the odd furball - real service over and above!! Janine Hawkins
  • When we contacted Petpals we were a bit hesitant in letting a stranger look after our little "Precious" but as soon as we met Julie she put us at ease. We are always rest assured when we come home to find our pampered feline looking content and very well groomed. Julie is very accommodating when we contact her at the last minute which we do quite often. We can't recommend Julie enough. Katie and Mark
  • We made contact with Petpals as we needed a home for three weeks for our 10 month old puppy,Oscar. Julie said that she wanted to meet him so that she could assess him so we arranged to meet her at her home. Oscar was fine and Julie said that she would be more than happy to look after him. We were very pleased that Julie asked lots of questions about Oscar in respect of his likes, dislikes, habits etc so that she could look after him without disrupting his normal routine. Whilst away, we contacted Julie and were assured that Oscar was well,having fun and enjoying his cuddles. Oscar was pleased to see us when we came home but it was evident that he enjoyed his time away! We would definately recommend using Julie and have already booked her for later in the year. Jacki and Andrew
  • Just wanted to let everybody know about the fantastic service that we recently received from Petpals. Our dog Tilly suddenly developed a huge cyst on her leg the morning we were due to leave her. However Julie was not phased by this in any way and while we were away gave Tilly the best possible care that any dog could have received. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she spent time regularly bathing the cyst and rubbing in the prescribed cream. On her return home, although pleased to see us, Tilly actually whimpered as Julie drove away!!! That says it all for me! Thanks again, Julie. Jill Wright
  • We were delighted to find Petpals operated in our area and upon meeting Julie we realised she was just the lady to look after our 'Little Princess'. We are quite aware we have possibly the most pampered cat in the UK but nothing phased Julie at all! The moment she arrived she stroked Sweep and they seemed comfortable around each other which put us at ease from the start. Julie was so great in letting us know that Sweep was fine and dandy whilst we were on holiday and we loved the little report we found when we got home. The Magnet with Sweep on it is pride of place in the kitchen - such a nice touch. We so appreciated it when Julie's hubby watered the garden too! She is so pleasant to deal with and is clearly one of those people who animals just love...We have already booked her services for later in the year! Jason
  • We have a Westie called Pickle who we used to place in a kennels when we went away but upon seeing a sign in our local petshop for petpals I knew we were going to be more than satisfied. I called Julie and immediately she had reassured me in a professional but friendly manner that they would be happy to take in Pickle for the night. Within minutes of being there Pickle clearly seemed at ease, we met the family and we were so elated that this was the case. They were all extremely accomodating. When we returned the next day Pickle,it was visible had a great time and without hesitation we booked for 3 other holidays on the spot. Julie and Rick are immensely talented in their time and patience, they are happy to give constructive critism and advice on certain points on training and looking after our little scamp, we have had 2 lovely presents from them in a magnet with Pickle's photo on and then a keyring with the same, and even had an e-mail this week from Julie saying that she is missing Pickle!. Matt and Kirsty Holme

Petpals Coventry

  • What an absolute gem of a service! We were worried about leaving our recently rescued Weimaraner in kennels when we found this service. Shumani had a whale of a time, so much so that when we dropped her off for the day a few days after returning home, she ran out of the car and straight into the house. She was also better behaved than she is at home! We went on holiday relaxed, safe in the knowledge that she was in good hands and that we could get in touch at any time. We thoroughly recommend this service, absolutely brilliant. We wouldn\'t leave our dog with anyone else now. Laura Liggins

Petpals Crewe & Nantwich

  • We have used Emmas pet sitting service with great success, so when we needed a dog walking service there was no hesitation in contacting Emma, Emma and all her dog walkers have been fantastic, I really can\'t praise them enough, they pick up and drop Gilly off from our home and Gilly loves it. I can certainly recommend them. Andy Billington. Andrew Billington
  • Many thanks to Emma and her team. Our dogs are always looked after really well and are always happy when we get home. A big bonus is that the house is well cared for too. Great to be able to go away and not worry about our 'boys'. Elaine Kirby
  • Great discovery - great service. Left our two ragdolls (cats), rabbits and fish in the care of Emma and felt they were being looked after really well in the comfor of their own home. Will definitely use this fantastic service again. Lynn Downie
  • Emma looked after Gilly our 2 year old Beagle in her own home whilst we enjoyed our holiday. The service Emma provides is excellent, Gilly had human contact all day long, a good long run each day and a play pal in Emma's own dog, we will certainly use Emma's service again. Thank you. A Billington
  • I would thoroughly recommend the service provided by Emma - the diary sheets were really useful. Our 2 cats were well cared for whilst we were away. Would definately use again. Mr J Blair
  • I can't thank Emma enough for looking after my two cats so well. Every time I have used a cattery my tom cat has found the whole experience to be really stressful and he doesn't eat properly while he is there. When I discovered Petpals in Crewe it really was the solution to all the cattery problems I had experienced in the past. My cats much prefer staying in their own home and Emma does a wonderful job looking after them. They aren't the type of cats that take to strangers very well but they really like Emma. My husband and I can now enjoy our holidays guilt free knowing that our pets are happy at home. K. Burdett
  • Petpals Crewe is the perfect solution to my frequent short business trips - it is like a holiday for my puppy, Poppy, and the interaction with the kids and dogs does her more than good! Thank you so much for the continued good service, and providing the home away from home for my best friend!

Petpals Crowthorne & Sandhurst

  • Just got back from a fortnight away. After we were let down by the people who usually look after Sophie, we had to make a last minute booking with Petpals. Nick was great about setting up the arrangement at short notice, and on our return our cat Sophie has obviously been well looked after, and we have a detailed log of how Sophie has been whilst we were away. Alongside caring for Sophie, Nick and his colleagues have also kept an eye on the house, including ensuring that the rubbish has been put out on the right day. They were even able to reset our internet router for us when a power cut caused the remote access to fail. Fabulous service, highly recommended. R Peat
  • I'd like to say a big thank you to Petpals, I wasn't keen on leaving my two cats at local kennels and wasn't sure what options I had until I found the Petpals site - on contacting Nick at Crowthorne I found the process of booking up their services very straightforward and easy to arrange. On returning from my holiday, both my cats were very well, lively and happy and on top of that, we found a daily report on how they had been while I was away. This was a great service and really feel that our cats benefitted from staying at home in a familiar environment rather than getting carted off to the local kennels. Once again, thanks Petpals - we'll be in touch again soon.
  • Excellent, cat sitting visits arranged within days of initial enquiry
  • I have used Petpals for a few years now to look after my two cats in our absence. I have nothing but praise for the service I receive from Nick and his colleagues at the Crowthorne branch and I would not consider putting Tigger and Hamish in a cattery again with Petpals around. I've just got back from my holiday this year to find that Sue has done all that I asked, my cats are very happy and contented, my home is secure, and Sue's report tells me all I need to know about what my two have been up to! For extra peace of mind, I check in with Nick while I'm away and he is always happy to let me know how my cats are doing. Also, I know that if there was a problem, Petpals would deal with things in their usual calm, professional way. I recommend Nick and Petpals Crowthorne to you if you want your pet to stay at home and be well looked after while you're away.
  • Very good first impression, your pet taxi is an excellent idea and I will be using Petpals again
  • I will not hesitate to recommend your dog walking services to my friends
  • Very professional and friendly home and pet sitting service
  • Excellent, Nick was helpful and reassuring about looking after our cat, rabbit and two guinea pigs while we are away in the summer
  • We were very, very happy with the cat sitting service – especially the daily log – good to know our cats were being so well looked after
  • Very thorough and professional. Seeing how Nick was with our cats at the care assessment put our minds at ease
  • Sugar is very well, we were delighted to see that her fur is growing back so nicely and also to read the report from Petpals visits. We will definitely consider Petpals for our future holiday plans - simply because it does minimise the disruption to Sugar and gives us peace of mind.
  • Thank you so much for looking after Tizzy while we were away as usual she was very well looked after and it is so good knowing she is in great hands when we go away, makes it easier to relax and not worry about her. Sarah Boulton
  • Thank you all for the excellent care you have taken of Perdy. Best wishes and warm thanks. Anne (and Perdy)
  • I contacted Nick at Petpals Crowthorne at very short notice prior to our summer holiday. The family cat, Tigger, needed looking after for nearly three weeks and our original arrangements had fallen through. Nick arranged a meet and greet with Tigger and me! Nick went through the cat sitting process, we completed a couple of simple forms and the deed was done. Nick also agreed to water the plants - indoors and outside, so another weight was removed from our minds. Nick visited Tigger once a day, fed him and fussed him - we even got a written log of Nicks visits, detailing Tiggers activities and eating habits, plus a text during our holiday to assure us that Tigger was fine. I am more than happy to recommend Nick and Petpals Crowthorne. In my opinion the service offered by Petpals far exceeds anything a Cattery can offer and your cat gets to stay at home in familiar surroundings. Martin Williams
  • Nick looked after my two cats Belle and Munchkin whilst I took a last minute family holiday. We came back to find very happy contented cats, we had a wonderful daily report letting us know what the cats had been up to. There was no strange phase that comes from them being in a cattery, and no unusual behaviour - the cats had clearly been well cared for and I am ready to book in for our next holiday - thanks again Nick, your team are stars. Michelle and family
  • Fantastic service, extremley professional and reliable with the ability to care at a very hight standard, for my cat Lynna in my absence during one month. Lynna was very happy, beautifully groomed and even had put on weight which was a delight to see. I recommend petpals to anyone who reads this comment. Great company and fab people to deal with Juliet Dianati

Petpals Darlington

  • Sally is wonderful - cares for her charges very well and does a great job. Two staffies, two cats and the fish were well looked after. AnthonyJD@petfotos.com
  • As always, a brilliant service received. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Petpals to anyone! Claire Green
  • My black labrador has been home boarding with Petpals for two years now and, apart from one occasion, always with his Auntie Sandra. The number of stays now total sixteen so it has cost me an absolute fortune. Unfortunately Ole (my dog) insists that my wife go on holiday as often as possible in order that he can go on his jollies too. He is so well looked after that he has to be dragged away on our return....it's so embarrassing! On a serious note, Sandra and her family are marvellous. I never worry about Ole, knowing he is being looked after better than he is at home. I would recommend Petpals and Sandra in particular to anyone.....just be careful that your dog doesn't decide he/she isn't coming home. Ole has also been walked on occasion by David.....again Ole has enjoyed himself enormously. The only criticism I can make is that sometimes he has had to mix with the Boys from the Boro instead of his preferred company, the Wags from Wynyard. Chris Cannon
  • I can't speak highly enough of Sal and her team. Although usually we only need the occasional dog walk, we're always treated with the same friendly, first class care and attention as regular customers. We've just had our first long weekend away in years, confidently leaving dog, cats and home in Sal's safe-keeping - and you can't put a price on that kind of peace of mind. In any case, the service is incredibly reasonable; it would certainly have cost far more to put Bryan, Jeffrey and George into kennels and catteries, they wouldn't have been together (which would have really distressed them as they've never been apart or away from home), their routines would have been disrupted and, at the end of a long, exhausting journey, we would have had to run around collecting them from their various locations before we could relax. Instead, we walked in to settled, contented pets, a cheery word from Sal before she dashed off to her next assignment and were able to unwind over a cup of tea Heather Carter
  • I can only say what an excellent service! Sallyann has been great with our staffy (Stella) who can sometimes be grumpy with other dogs! I got sallyann through a recomendation from a friend and would not hesitate in passing her details on! A big thankyou! D. Gray D Gray
  • I just feel so fortunate to have found PetPals of Darlingotn and Yarm. Sally-Ann and David run an amazingly efficient, incredibly friendly and innovative service for people like me who need help with our doggies. Nothing is too much trouble for them and I know that I can count on them and their talented team absolutely. Furthermore, their attention to detail and ability with animals is second to none. I have just come back from a 3 week break and have been given detailed feedback PLUS photos of my dogs' stay with them. In short, I cannot recommend them highly enough and I wish them and their incredible team every well-deserved success for the future. Many many thanks. Gillian Wilkinson
  • Petpals provide a great service! We have a 7 month old beagle that loves his walks with petpals, he has made lots of new friends! It is great to come back from work and read what he has been up to on his walk. They are very flexible and if I need a walk changing to a different date it is never a problem. They have also lent us a crate to stop our naughty beagle from chewing through everything in our house, they are fantastic! Amie Murphy
  • Sal and her team are brilliant with my dogs. I couldn't do my job without them and when I go on holiday I can rest easy knowing my pets are in good hands. Thank you all. Carloine
  • I love my walkies with Sallyann and her team! I get to play with lots of other doggies and get to socialise with doggies which I wouldn't otherwise meet. I've stayed wtih Sallyann and her family for my holidays last year and had a wonderful time! I've even asked my owner to ask if I can go again this year. Being a doggy that likes to play, get lots of cuddles and feel safe I'm so pleased my owner contacted Sallyann. I even had a poorly leg last year and Sallyann was fantastic helping to look after me. Winston
  • Finding out about Petpals and meeting Sally Ann and some of her carers has been the best thing that has happened since we got our dog. Care can be sorted at very short notice, and all the families Kal has stayed with have been fantastic. I would happily recommend Petpals (and often do) to anyone who doesn't want to put their pets in kennels. J.Wall
  • Petpals is a very well run, professional organisation. I recommend them who I suspect may benefit from their excellent services. Pet Pals Darlington and Yarm, run by David & Sallyann Gray is in my opinion a superb service. I have come to know them both very well over the past couple of years. I have also had the privilege of meeting several of their members of staff, from walkers to sitters. I am sure people want the best for their pets. I have no hesitation in saying that with Pet Pals Darlington & Yarm one receives a professional, knowledgeable, caring and very reliable service, and they are all very nice people too! D.Davies
  • We used Sally Ann (Petpals Darlington) to visit our 3 cats, 1 rabbit and fish while we were on holiday. It was so nice to relax by the pool knowing that someone was regularly visiting our home and cats. It was fabulous to return home to a day by day log that was left for us and a wee gift, especially as we have a painfully shy cat who even he seemed to take to a "stranger" visiting him. We'd like to say a big, big thankyou for such a wonderful service and we will definitely be using Sally Ann and her fab team again!!
  • The service that Darlington pet pals provide my 2 dogs is 1st class. We have 2 King Charles spaniel's one 8 months and one 6 months old. We have used Sal and her team's services since August 2008 and the team have tailored our walks and visits to suit our dogs. For an example of how great the service is, when our eldest king Charles got his new friend in November 08 and she was not able to go out doors, a puppy visit was combined with a walk for our older dog so that he didn't go without. Also the puppy service that the team offers is such a life line, When we got our King Charles in August we had 3 weeks of work and then the wrench of going back to work and leaving our baby was eased knowing that Sal was coming in twice a day to complete a puppy visit.
  • Now both our dogs are seen to by pet pals 3-4 times a week, the walks help them to learn to be social with other dogs and humans, We also love to read the daily diary that is kept for the dogs when we come home from work. The dogs know and love Sal to bits, when we visit Sal at her home they drag us up to the front door and when Sal visits the house there little tails polish my wooden floor a treat.
  • This is a service that we could not do without as it allows us to have a working life and the love and joy of still having our dogs without them being left alone all day.. Also I would like to say a massive thanks to Sal for the short notice visits that she has done for us over the last few weeks. No request ever seems to be a problem. We have complete peace of mind with this service and will use the service for many years to come. We would highly recommend you and your team to anyone who is thinking of using a dog walker/pet sitter. Again, A massive thank you.

Petpals Eastleigh, Hampshire

  • Petpals have been walking and fussing Harley & Regis our 2 labradors for nearly a year now. We are so pleased with the service Janet & Diane give us, and the dogs we know are always really happy to see them. Diane has also been very helpful with general advice and especially about the new dog trainer leads she has recommended. James
  • Petpals have been walking my 2 German Shepherds, Kaila & Zak, for the past 2 years - what would I have done without you Diane!! An excellent, friendly and reliable service - not the same routine daily is a definite bonus. The dogs love their walks and have developed a great rapport with their new walker, Louise. My appreciation and thanks Jenny Pattison
  • Great service, totally reliable, even when it snowed in February the team were out walking, real dedication! Fern has taken the trouble to really get to know the dogs and their different personalities. Pauline Cutler
  • Petpals have been walking our dog for a number of years and we have always been very happy with the service. We especially enjoy reading the little stories on the logsheet letting us know what our dog has been up to that day. Rosemary Bock
  • Petpals have been walking Barney and Spike since they were 4 or five months old, they are two very Liveley Jack russells, the boys love playing with the other dogs. we think Diane and Fern are doing a great job and would really recommend the service!
  • Just a quick note to thank you so much for looking after Misty while we were on holiday. Although he was obviously pleased to see us on our return he did not appear at all stressed or that he had missed us overly much as is usual on our return. Many thanks again for looking after him so well, it was nice to be able to relax when away knowing he would be well cared for.
  • Petpals provide a first class service for our area in Chandlers Ford, Hampshire. They are very reliable and professional and we would never hesitate to recommend them. Our two cats are able to stay in the comfort of their own home when we go away and we are assured in the knowledge that they are given every attention possible - so much better than a cattery. Petpals attention to detail is great - an event log is filled out each day which is useful to refer to, and it is good to know that someone is going into the house each day for security. We will always use Petpals -FANTASTIC! Carole and Jim Griffiths
  • I will not hesitate to recommend your services to my friends.
  • Very professional and friendly
  • Excellent, helpful and reassuring
  • Very good first impression
  • Excellent, visits arranged within days of initial enquiry
  • Your Home Sitter is an angel. I am very happy and the pets are very content

Petpals Farnham

  • We have used Sandra's services on many occasions and would like to thank her for the professionalism and dedicatoin she shows looking after our animals. Sandra is absolutely fantastic and we would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone. Sara Ball
  • Thank you so much for looking after our cats so conscientiously and kindly. They both seemed very happy on our return. Thanks also for watering the tubs, dealing with the post and putting the dustbin out. I am sure that we will be calling upon your services again.
  • I really do appreciate all the attention you give our dog while you are walking him
  • Thanks again for your help. I have never known my dogs as relaxed coming back from a pet sitter and quite honestly, you would never have known I had been away so a HUGE thank you for that! Worth every penny!
  • My dog is certainly so much better with other dogs since you started taking her out.
  • I am pleased to be able to recommend Sandra Walls of Petpals. She looked after my menagerie and home while I was away. She is very caring and responsible and provided a very useful service (this client is a local Vet)

Petpals Ferndown & Wimborne

  • Professional, helpful and friendly. I know my dog is in safe hands and will have a good fun walk. Sally Harris

  • Very friendly and efficient
  • My daughter and I were very impressed

  • The service seems to provide the solution to every pet care problem.

Petpals Fleet, Hampshire

  • Clare, thank you very very much for looking after our 2 cats, Roni & Fergie, so extremely well. They have never looked better after we have returned from a holiday. They seemed so much happier spending their 'holiday' in their own home amongst their own surroundings and Fergie appreciated the cuddles & grooming - thanks. I will certainly recommend you and Petpals to everyone with pets and I certainly will make you the first choice when we next go on holiday. Once again a huge thank you and your help at short notice was very much appreciated by us and Roni & Fergie Valerie Kubath
  • The service provided by Petpals is professional and friendly. My dog always leaves without a glance over the shoulder and comes back having a lovely time. I would recommend the service.
  • Very friendly, reliable and professional service. Our dogs look forward to their walks with Petpals and always come back having fun! (regular dog customer)
  • Knowing our dog is in your safe hands has made life much easier for us. (regular dog customer)
  • You did an excellent job and I will have no hesitation in recommending you to my friends. I hope you will come again when we next go on holiday. (regular cat customer)
  • Thanks you for looking after me, I felt I was on holiday too! (from a dog walked when his owners were away)
  • When we arrived home from holiday it was a complete pleasure to return to two happy and contented cats. We are planning our holiday for next year and hope you can help. Many, many thanks for doing such a wonderful job.

Petpals Grantham

  • Thank you so very much for taking care of my little puppy, Coco when I was at work. I was so happy with the service you provided, Wendy could not have been more helpful and I absolutely loved the little notes she left me at the end of each visit, telling me what they had been up to. I will definitely be using your services again and will recommend you to all my friends. Many many thanks from Andrea and Coco X Andrea McHugh
  • My lights in shining in armour - well waterproofs and walking boots! When we found Grantham Petpals we could not believe our luck. The also looked after our two dogs while we got married and even managed to teach the dogs how to text to send us a good luck message! Totally trustworthy, reliable and flexiable. I would recommend them to anyone. Sarah Gray
  • Thankyou so much Ginny[Grantham petpals]for housing my buns for me whilst we were away.They both look very contented buns & dont seem to have missed us!Thankyou for keeping them for the extra night due to a delayed flight/flat battery & also for their food parcel in case we hadn't had time to go shopping[which we hadn't!]Would definatly use you again,thankyou. Nicola Boddy
  • Ginny was our saviour. My dear mother suddenly became terribly ill in 2008 and into a nursing home.I live in London and Buster, her adored cat, was alone in Grantham. All enquires as what to do directed me to Ginny at Petpals. She is an angel; knowledgable, kindness itself, practical, honest, reliable and never made me feel a nuisance whenever I needed to know how he was. Ginny collected the post and even offered to re direct it to me.She was my life line and kept my mother's house secure checking locks and sorting the lights. Most wonderfully , just before my mother died, she encouraged me to take Buster to the nursing home and taught me a brilliant way to get him into his basket.It made my mother's day. After her death Ginny helped hugely in trying to find a new home for Buster and was ready to vet any offers out as I was in London. Buster is now happy as can be living near his old home with his new mum, Super Sue! I would definitely recommend Petpals for your precious pet, whatever your needs.You will have A. Pacey
  • I feel like I've won the lottery discovering Petpals. It makes life so much easier now.
  • Everything has worked out really well and Henry and Kitty were obviously impressed with their 5 star treatment!
  • They obviously had a great time with you and we didn't have a moment's worry while we were away. We will certainly be booking you again in the future.
  • What a lovely service, wish I'd heard of it before!
  • Petpals delivers a fantastic service which is reliable, flexible and friendly. It really does make our life easier ! Thanks Ginny & Wendy.

Petpals Hinckley & Bosworth

  • I have found Petpals very easy to use. It meant that our elderly pets, 2 dogs and a cat did not have to have the disruption of spending time in kennels. They were able to have the reassurance of being able to spend the time whilst we were away in familiar surroundings. I would recommend Petpals services as a great stress reliever to both owners and pets because of their reliable service. Alan Wardropper
  • I felt happy to leave Gemma at a carers home. She was well looked after and very well walked, I had text messages during the week to let me know she was ok. I am really pleased with the care that Gemma received whilst we were away and would recommend it to anyone :-). Rebecca Morrissey
  • I don't know how we would manage without the help of Petpals. The family lead busy lives and it's not always possible for us to walk Millie during the day, so Petpals offer a great service and we are always happy and able to provide extra help if needed. The help provided has been reliable and caring. Sian Chamberlain
  • The staff are professional, friendly, reliable and knowledgeable about animal. It is a huge weight off my mind knowing our young puppy is in safe hands. Prompt and reliable service, they always accommodate our requirements even if I book at the last minute. Susan Royse
  • I could not ask for a more helpful service. The team are always ready to accommodate my dog at the last minute, my dog always seems happy and alert when we return home. Ian Lovell
  • Petpals was recommended to us by my sister. We needed a sitter for our dogs for the weekend of our wedding. The whole process of meeting our sitter and preparing for her stay was extremely professional. There was superb communication and my husband and I felt confident in leaving our dogs and home in the sitters hands. I would definitely recommend Petpals. It's scary leaving your pets in someone else's care, but our dogs had a wonderful time. Thank you for providing such a brilliant service. Neil
  • I started using the Petpals dog walking service in January this year and am delighted with the service offered. My needs are very varied from week to week and can change at short notice and Petpals have always been totally flexible. The service is very personal and I feel that the dog walkers genuinely care about my dogs welfare. I feel total confidence leaving my dogs ion the care of Petpals. Julia Hayward
  • I have found Petpals to be a reliable and invaluable service. Although I have not had to use them on a regular basis, I have always been given help when needed and received a great service. My dog absolutely loves Helen who has looked after her both on adhoc visits to walk her and also when I have gone away. She is looked after like one of their own pets. I would recommend Petpals to anyone. It's useful on a day to day basis but also when going on holiday; it's so much nicer than sending them to the kennels. Becky Felstead
  • The carers at Petpals looked after my two dogs and cat with as much care as I would myself. I was happy to trust them in my home and with my pets and would definitely use their service again. Tara McCrea
  • I would recommend Petpals to any dog owner. The friendly, personal and flexible service offered by Petpals is excellent. As a dog owner I know my pet is safe and happy in Petpals' care on the days when their services help us out. Thank you. Penny Masser

Petpals Hook, Hampshire

  • Melissa of Petpals Hook has been cat sitting for our two cats now for nearly three years. We really value the service Melissa provides. Not only is it reassuring to know the cats are in good hands, but she also keeps an eye on the house whilst we are away. To be honest we don\'t really want to leave her but unfortunately we are moving house! She is also very efficient and organised invoicing on time and responding to texts, calls and emails and nothing ever seems too much trouble including last minute request. We would highly recommend her and are confident that people will be delighted with her service. Carla Henry
  • Melissa of Petpals Hook has been absolutely fantastic from the day she started. She has a real care for the animals and she has really helped my dog come into its own. Melissa took great care socialising my (nervous) dog and offered service beyond expectation including helping out with unplanned walks at short notice (outside of normal hours!). I could not have asked for any better service and I am very grateful to Melissa. Storry Warner
  • I would like to say that Melissa and her Petpals service, for us, has been exceptional. Her service was friendly, flexible, reliable and business-like. Nothing was ever too much trouble and Pip, our very small dog, adored the girls and her walks. We also used the Homeboarding service and have been delighted with the care given. Melissa has been vigilant in contacting us and has always honoured what she says. It was a great relief to us to know that we could rely on her every time. Catherine Turner
  • Melissa from Petpals Hook has looked after our young cats several times, and we are happy to recommend her services. Whenever we go away we return to find spotlessly clean litter tray & food dishes, and to two very happy & healthy animals. The additional services offered, such as opening & closing curtains and turning on lights, are a convenient way of increasing security while we are on holiday. Melissa is very thorough and obviously loves animals, which we found very reassuring when leaving her in charge of our 14 week old kittens.
  • Melissa of Petpals Hook has been walking my dog Jess on a weekly basis for almost a year and I'm extremely happy with the service provided. She has been reliable, professional and flexible. I've never had to worry about Jess as I know she is being well cared for and always thoroughly enjoys her walks and has lots of fun. Melissa has always been able to help out when work commitments have arisen, even at short notice, giving me peace of mind. The introduction process was professional and straightforward and was carried out at my home, giving Jess and opportunity to become familiar with Melissa on her own territory. I would highly recommend Petpals Hook.
  • We would just like to thank you again for all your visits to our golden retriever Lana while we lived in the UK. Your service was very reliable and it gave us great peace of mind knowing that you were seeing her everyday. You always called if she seemed unwell and also helped us out at short notice when the need arose. And most importantly, Lana absolutely loved the walks and looked forward to you coming each day!

  • I have been using Petpals for over twelve months now and couldn't recommend them enough! They are friendly, reliable and both my dogs love the attention they receive from both Jayne & Geoff. They obviously care a great deal about the animals that they look after and have been a God send to us and we wouldn't be without them.
  • As usual your professionalism has been much appreciated. Many thanks again for your time and care. I will be in touch soon for the next holidays. Laura Hindmarch
  • Geoff, Thanks so much for taking such great care of Chance and Jasmine. I know they will miss you! We are really fortunate to have found Petpals- the care and dependability you provide are second to none. The dogs are happier and healthier now than they have ever been and the peace of mind you have given us is incredible. The best money we have ever spent!
  • If you could see Charlie now you'd think he'd swam an ocean not been for a paddle in the stream. Flat out, snoring his head off!! Don't know what you do with them, but it's great!! A night of peace and quiet.....priceless!! Paula Kempton

  • Charlie has stayed with mike several times I would never dream of Charlie goin any where else Brenda
  • Hi Mike, Just a quick thanks for the excellent love & care that Malc & Carol gave Monty during our recent holiday. He came back a very happy,contented and freshly bathed dog.

Petpals Mole Valley

  • WONDERFUL CHAP Paul, my GSD pup loved him on sight, such amazing service, how lucky we are to have found you, will pass contct to ALL dog pals. Constance Constance Hinton-Styles
  • I have a rescue cat Maisie, who is an indoor cat. At 7 years old when I got her, she was quite nervous and I wasn't too sure of her previous treatment. I had already booked a holiday and, at the time, didn't know about Petpals. I booked her into a Cattery for two weeks and I'm still not sure who was more traumatised by the process - her or me! I knew when I came back and picked her up that I would not be going on holiday again soon. That was until I met Paul. I did an Internet search for pet sitting and after trawling through many pages and rejecting lots of places, I found just what I was looking for. Initially, I was nervous about giving my front door key to a virtual stranger, but Paul is just such a nice guy; quiet and polite and immediately makes you feel comfortable. Maisie seemed to take to him to which was the important thing. I have been using Paul now for a couple of years and it is absolutely brilliant. I have recommended him to friends snd I know now that I can go away on holiday with complete pea Sarah Howes

Petpals Norwich

  • We would highly recommend the dog walking service that Mark & Lucy provide. Our dog Snoopy, who is an extremely active Cocker Spaniel, loved the time he spent with them and we could tell that he was always well looked after. We will definitely use their services again if the need arises! Janine Perkins
  • It is without hesitation that we recommend Petpals (Norwich) - our lively Golden Retriever is a visibly happier & healthier dog. Mark & Lucy are extremely flexible and conscious of providing the best care for Hamish, he clearly has a whale of a time! (Regular dog walk client)
  • Thank you for helping out with Solo again. (If she had her way she'd be going out with you every day!). (Occasional dog walk client)
  • Mark & Lucy provided a very professional & friendly service, and we have no hesitation in recommending Petpals (Norwich) to other pet owners. We will certainly be using them again ourselves. (Cat visit client)

  • Many thanks for doing such a splendid job of looking after our cats Charlie and Tansey.
  • Thank you for looking after our crew, they are much happier than when we used to send them to the cattery.
  • I was very pleased with the care Buzz received, particularly when he needed veterinary care for his ear, and would be happy for him to stay with Petpals again.

  • We recently found, and used Jo to help us with our two boxers and she is FABULOUS! I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs a hand, the dogs loved her and we were reassured that they were being well looked after. Diane Williams
  • Jo, thank you very much for walking Bailey on Friday down by the river- he was thoroughly worn out! Great!' Debbie
  • Hi Jo, Huge thanks for taking Minnie out this week. She's definitely a different dog when she's been out during the day rather than at home on own. I think it's brilliant that you take her out with other dogs as she's so much better when we meet other dogs. Helen
  • Millie was very well, thank you for taking care of her. It's a big relief to have someone that looks after her so well James
  • I saw the pictures of Bear and he sure does look enthusiastic and content!! I am so thankful that you took care of Bear for us. You did a wonderful job!!! I can tell Bear was enjoyed being with you and the other dogs. Angelica,Brian and Bear
  • Thanks very much for the photos and for all the work you put in with the diary, the texts etc. I can't begin to tell you how pleased we have been with everything you have done, far exceeded our expectations and it was obvious the cats were happy and relaxed in your company (far quicker than we thought possible). We will be more than happy to use you again and will highly recommend you to friends. Alyn
  • Thanks very much for looking after Coral last weekend, he was very happy when we got back. Will be in touch soon if we are away again and will also be recommending you to all my friends with cats as well. Thanks again Stacey
  • Bronnie is so much better socialised now, I can tell the difference when she meets other dogs. Erika
  • Thank you so much. Minnie and Moss seemed extremely happy when we got back (6.45) Many thanks. Hilary
  • Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job with Twiggy and Wiggy - they are happy and healthy and their coats are certainly the better for your visits! I much appreciated the daily diary and your note. Thanks also for cleaning their bedding, and the door mat, and everywhere in fact. You did a wonderful job and I (and they) would definitely like to use your services again, whenever that may be. Many thanks again. Madeline and the felines
  • Thanks for giving Lucie such fun. She has been much happier since she started having fun with you guys! Janice
  • Thank you so much! we loved having you watch the boys.... they were so calm when we arrived home! I told all the girls about you! so hopefully you will be hearing from them. I look forward to seeing you soon! Kristine
  • Thanks very much for your daily reports and for looking after Snowy so well, she was very contented when we saw her and seems not to have missed us too much after all! John
  • Thank you for walking Bella today. She is completely flat out on the sofa (naughty) so has obviously had a really good runaround. Kay
  • Thank you so much for looking after my rats while I was away. It was reassuring to know that they were in such safe hands, and that they could stay in their own house. They were so content when I got back. I really appreciate that you were able to look after them at such short notice, and that you remembered all 4 of them (by name and character) from looking after them previously. I would not hesitate to recommend Petpals to my friends and have already passed on your card to a friend in Salisbury. Sal Berris

Petpals Southampton

  • Had to leave some feedback on how great this service is. Not having to put our cats into a cattery is not only better for the cats, but means its one less thing to worry about before going on holiday ! Cats are always happy and healthy after a trip away. thanks ! Simon F
  • I can only recommend Victoria, she is great with animals and I feel safe leaving them with her. Thank you so much. Nina Ewerhardy
  • Your Home Sitter is an angel. I am very happy and the pets are very content
  • Excellent, visits arranged within days of initial enquiry
  • Very good first impression
  • Excellent, Laura was helpful and reassuring
  • Very professional and friendly
  • Not surprised that Laura's amazing team is always highly recommended by vets and local rescue centers "simply the best"
  • I will not hesitate to recommend your services to my friends.

Petpals South Durham

  • Jill has lookedafter our two Siberian Huskys since they were pups. As we work full-time Petpals visit our house once or twice a day, dependant upon when we need them, and walk our two energetic boys. Kaizer and Kuna know Petpals staff well, and whilstI was off ill due to a knee injury, and couldn\'t walk, I experienced how excited ourboys were everytime Petpals visited to walk them. We couldn\'t manage without Jill and the staff at Petpals, and when I say we - that means all four of us. Thanks, Jill, Stuart and all the staff. Nick
  • I will never be able to thank Jill and Stuart enough for the wonderful support they gave me when I needed help with my poorly terrier Bertie. They provided an invaluable service getting Bertie to and from vet appointments..even coming out at 7am on the snowiest day of the year. Nothing seemed too much trouble and I was so grateful to know that I could count on them at such a difficult time. Bertie was very poorly yet was always delighted to see Jill and Stuart when they came to pick him up.They really helped Bertie and made such a sad experience bearable for all of us. If anyone needed help with their pets they should look no further than this wonderful couple... They were my saviours when I thought I just couldn't cope. Very Many Thanks~ Mary & Archie Maryclaire Layton
  • Jill from South Durham petpals boards my two basset hounds on a weekly basis when I go to work. They can't wait to go and love to see Aunty Jill. My working life is made so much easier, knowing that they are being so well cared for with lots of cuddles.I would recommend Jills services to everyone that wants their pets looked after in a home from home atmosphere. Thank you Jill and Stuart for looking after my babies so well, and coping with all the drool and mess that they can make!! 1st class friendly service. Mandy

Petpals Stockport

  • Sarah has been caring for our three rescue terriers [terrorists!] over the last 5 years. We come home to happy content dogs - everytime and my first act after I've said hello to the dogs is to read their term report and find out how they've been and where they've been to. What is really lovely,is to see their delight when the Petpal van arrives. When you see such happy expressions on their faces you know in your gut that your dogs are in safe hands. penny
  • I'd just like to say how much Janine and I appreciate the service you provide. It's great to know that our cats, Arthur and Muriel are well looked after when ever we're away and Jam loves his walks on the days we're both at work. You're always very flexible when we change requirements or go away at short notice! We really don't know what we'd do with out you! Mark Hurst
  • I was very apprehensive about leaving our puppy for the first time, but I needn't have been worried. When I went to collect him, after a short stay with his Petpals family, he seemed more than at home there. His carers are lovely people with a beautiful home. Having never used a service like this before, it has made me realise that I would never want to leave our dog in boarding kennels. Leaving him with a petpals family is just like a home from home for our puppy. He gets all the walkies & cuddles he would get at home...what more could we ask for? I would have no hesitation to recommend Petpals to anyone! louise scialom
  • Just to say a big thank you for all your proffesionalism and care of Penny over the years. We were always totally relaxed leaving penny in your care. Dave and Kathy
  • Thank you very much for looking after Sophie and the house so well. I am so pleased everything went well and will confidently leave her in the future. Sophie certainly thrived on your care, so all that worrying was for nothing! Thank you again. Margaret R.
  • We just wanted to say thank you for looking after Paisley and Gizmo so well. They are both happy and relaxed - so much different compared to their stay at the cattery! Thanks again, we will definitely use you again! Nicola and Neil B.
  • Thank you for caring for my cats, they were chilled out and purring when I arrived home. I didn't worry once and would definitely recommend you to my friends. You're a Star! Karen
  • Thank you very much for looking after Vienna so well. She looked extemely well when we came home, so you must have a magic touch! Your account of the 2 weeks made us chuckle a lot. we really do appreciate the service you provide. Fiona and Graeme B.
  • Thank you for looking after us over the past couple of years, it is great that mum can go away and not worry about us! Pepper, Simba
  • Would just like to say what a fantastic service Sarah provides. Both my dogs are rescue dogs and sarah instantly has gained their trust and they adore her. Can't rate her highly enough. We are so pleased to have found her! michelle mullane
  • Sarah has been looking after our ragdoll cats during our holidays since last year and on each of our returns the cats were happy, relaxed, groomed and missing Sarah. I would like to thank her and Petpals for offering such an excellent service that gives us peace of mind when we are away. C. Metello
  • Two years ago, we contacted Sarah to walk our new Cocker Spaniel puppy - Solo - while we were in work. Have never regretted it, what a fantastic service & Solo definitely agrees! We are regular dog walking & boarding customers and would never contemplate leaving Solo with anyone else now. D. Williams

Petpals Tees Valley & Middlesbrough

  • Our very energetic 18 month yellow lab Skye has been walked by Petpals for 6 months now and so its time to say how fantastic this service is. We love the fact that she gets a long long walk with them when we aren't around, but not as much as she clearly does!! A brilliant service by wonderful dog lovers - worth every penny. Thoroughly recommended. Julie Julie
  • Absolutely brilliant service. Leo and Molly, our 2 black labradors, miss Judith who stayed in our home over Christmas. Not only were the dogs, pony, cat and house very well looked after, Judith was snowed in without a car and even one night without heating when the boiler broke down. The whole experience form 1 st enquiry to payment at the end was excellent. We will always use PetPals again - so long as they will have us!! liz Foster
  • Petpals are totally fabulous, the care and consideration they give my little cocker Spaniel Oscar is beyond compare, he is treated as a member of the family when he stays overnight so much so that he saunters into their home and settles himself down in his favorite spot just like he does with me. When I heard through a friend about Petpals and how they offer a service with genuine care, I contacted them and I can not tell you what a difference it has made to my working life and Oscars and life in general - I have a relaxed happy dog, who wags his tail in delight when Petpals call, I have a clear desk and I have a clear mind, not worrying about my dog, not worrying about how I can fit in a decent walk, not worrying when Im away if he is warm enough, fed, sleeping in a kennel? He is tucked up in his second home, happy and relaxed with people who love him. Because of Petpals we get the best out of each other and that, in my opinion is what having a pet is all about. I would recommend them over and over. Kirstie Handley
  • I would like to say how fantastic the service was again. Jess really enjoyed her stay with Anne and it was great to know she was being well cared for so we could relax and enjoy our holiday without having to worry about Jess. Jess seems to have had her own holiday whilst staying with Anne. Lesley and Mark
  • Tabby is now 20 years old and last year started to get a bit of a handful for our very kind neighbour. Then we heard about Petpals and talked to David Gray at Tees Valley about looking after Tabby. We were particularly worried as we've recently retired and wanting to take longer holidays. Tabby doesn't just need feeding, she loves a daily brush and needs plenty of cuddles. Now Elaine visits Tabby daily and gives her all the love and care we do. We're delighted with Petpals and cannot recommend them highly enough. Elaine really cares for Tabby and it shows - when we get back from holiday, Tabby is fit and healthy and shows none of the signs of stress some pets experience when separated from their owners. Well done Petpals and a special thanks to Elaine! Dave and Jan Rippon
  • I have boarded my springer spaniel, Harvey, three times now with Pet Pals. His first stays were with Jane and most recently with Jackie. Each time I was able to go away and know that Harvey would be having a great time and would receive the same care and attention I can give him. After having a bad experience with kennelling, Pet Pals are a godsend. Thank you so much! Sharon Maddy
  • We would just like to thank you for the first class excellent care Susan gave to Farrah and Sasha over the Bank Holiday weekend. Your company enabled us to enjoy our daughters wedding knowing that we had left our babies in good hands and they were getting all the care they needed. We came back to find 2 very happy german shepherds who had enjoyed their weekend too. Could you say a great big thank you to Susan on our behalf, and we guarantee that the next time we go away you will be the first point of call. Tom, Yvonne Brand and family
  • Just come back from holiday after leaving our pet beagle, Millie with Jackie for the longest period of time since we have had her. We were away for 2 weeks. Very pleased with the welcome and friendliness of our meetings. Millie was made to feel part of the family very quickly and even after a short introduction I knew all was going to be well. David did a brilliant jop of matching Millie's home life to that of the sitters - even if it was probably more exciting for her - not a bad thing! We missed Millie when we were away, but knew she was fine and when we came home it was evident with the photos and the daily log that she had had just as great a time as us if not better. Can't thank you enough. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that Millie is being well cared for - will use you every time and recommend you to friends and family. My only concern now is that she won't want to come home! Many thanks Anne and family Anne Heath
  • We had'nt been away as a family since we got our dog Mel. She is such a special part of our family we could'nt leave her. This time we had no choice a family wedding in Wales. Just by word of mouth someone told us about Pet Pals so we thought we'd give it a go. After meeting David from Pet pals and feeling very anxious we met Amy and her family and new straight away Mel would be fine. They loved her to bits and without a doubt we would send her to them again. We have already told friends and family about Pet Pals and highly recommend them. Big thanks to Amy and her mum and dad. If we have to go away as a family again we hope Amy and her family will have her again cos Mel loved them too. Thanks again, Sharon, Kev, Sean and Kerryanne Sharon
  • My black labrador has been home boarding with Petpals for two years now and, apart from one occasion, always with his Auntie Sandra. The number of stays now total sixteen so it has cost me an absolute fortune. Unfortunately Ole (my dog) insists that my wife go on holiday as often as possible in order that he can go on his jollies too. He is so well looked after that he has to be dragged away on our return....it's so embarrassing! On a serious note, Sandra and her family are marvellous. I never worry about Ole, knowing he is being looked after better than he is at home. I would recommend Petpals and Sandra in particular to anyone.....just be careful that your dog doesn't decide he/she isn't coming home. Ole has also been walked on occasion by David.....again Ole has enjoyed himself enormously. The only criticism I can make is that sometimes he has had to mix with the Boys from the Boro instead of his preferred company, the Wags from Wynyard. Chris Cannon
  • I just wanted to say a big thank you to Petpals Tees Valley for helping me out with Molly, my lab retriever. David has been great in accommodating me and Molly whenever I call. Even if I made numerous changes to the plan, call last minute or even if I get delayed! It is a great comfort to know Molly is being look after really well while I'm away. Thank you so much David (and all the carers)for taking such good care of Molly for me whenever I'm away! Lavina
  • It was my 1st ever time leaving my cats (indoor cats) i have never left them for more than 8 hours, so when i had to go away for a few days i heard about petpals. admitidly i spent alot of time worried about the cats being alone but when i got home they were very happy and petpals had left me a note to say how the cats were. i found this very comforting knowing they had company. I have already booked petpals again for my holiday in may. THANKS PETPALS!! Bonnie & Bailey lee simpson
  • Hi i have been getting my two dogs Tess and Cindy walked now for a few months now, i would just like to say that i have seen a real difference in my younger dog cindy, she was quite shy with people and other dogs and would always stay close, i took them out for a long walk last week down to the river and cindy was off like a shot she was even swimming!she usually just had a paddle.She has even lost some weight which she needed, she is like a new dog.Suzzanne is usually her main walker and the girls have took to her brilliantly so thank you Suzzanne and thank you Pet Pals. Clare Sharp
  • Our 3 Japanese Shiba Inus (Fallon, Amber & Teddy)stayed with the Purdy Family recently. It was the best thing we ever did. We went away very happy and relaxed about their wellbeing. Will be using Petpals again. Thank You so much. Dawn and Tony
  • Thanks David for having Beemer and Aimee looked after by Kevin and Karen - not only great carers but a lovely couple who I would recommend to any Petpals user. Our dogs were obviously looked after even better than I could ever have imagined. Again thanks very much David for sorting out our boarding problem at such short notice. Many more thanks to Kevin and Karen for a great job well done. Hope to use the service again very soon.
  • We left Harvey, Patch and our home in the capable hands of Petpals while we were away for 4 weeks. We returned to find two very happy dogs and our house in perfect order. We were delayed getting home due to airport closure and Petpals stayed some extra days to help us out. We cannot thank you enough for the excellent service David and Judy provided while homesitting and shall be using the service again. We shall also not hesitate to recommend the service to others.
  • It was nice to return home to our well cared for cats. Excellent service and good to have a day by day report. We will use this service again and are highly delighted. MANY THANKS DAVID.
  • I could give no greater endorsement of Sallyanne and David's services than the fact I am prepared to leave the care of my beloved pets and the key to my home in their extremely capable and trustworthy hands. Their services and selves are a much appreciated support to animal owners. A. Saunders
  • I would like to thank David and his team for all their help and care. They have not only been brilliant with walking Shaun our elderly rescue dog but have given invaluable advice regarding his behaviour, so that now I am very proud when I take him out. They are a professional team who I trust completely. H. Brown
  • Really wanted to say that this is a brilliant service, any one who can handle and walk my great dane "trigger" deserves a medal. My dog is a lot happier since pet pals started walking him for me, when i have been at work and on the sick. Dave has developed a fantastic relationship with trigger and the family, we all love to ready triggers walking diary too. Just wanted others to know how fantastic the service is and it is truly worth every penny, plus thanks petpals especially dave. T. Harrison
  • We are so happy with the home boarding arrangement for Katie whilst we were on holiday. She was obviously very happy and cared for. The home boarders did a brilliant job and I am sure went the extra mile. I was a bit concerned when I heard about all the ice and snow and risk of accidents, but you wisely kept her in the garden when things were too bad to get out. We really appreciate all their care and attention and I am sure Katie looks forward to seeing them on some future occasion P & G Cooper

Petpals Tyne Valley

  • We've just returned from holiday and our first experience with Petpals. We really liked the idea of leaving our cats in their own surroundings and Carl visited every day to feed and clean their litters. We came back to 4 thoroughly happy cats. Thanks Carl and we look forward to booking our next holiday with you! I've let all my fellow cat fosterers know about you so you may be overrun by bookings now! :o) Sharlene Roy
  • I was very pleased with the efficient and friendly service provided to myself and my 3 cats while i went away on a recent holiday. The company is very professional in both image and during the conduct of business and i had no cause for concern at anytime either while i was away or when i returned. The cost of the care provided was also very competitive. I would have no hesitation in using the service again and will certainly recommend the company to family and friends. CAROLYN O'BRIEN

Petpals West Dorset

  • Dog walker you can trust, 100% in every way, wouldn't have anyone else look after my dogs. Julie Rose
  • We have used Matt and Maria at Petpals for the past two and a half years. All their carers are fantastic. Our dogs Mabel and Margot seem to really love it. They go for amazing walks, get fed and loved and cared for, they also are really good at following our eldest dog, Mabel's medication. Matt and Maria make sure that Mabel and Margot follow their usual routine. They have been so fantastic at taking them in at such short notice as we have to go away on business quite often. It is such a relief to know they are there for us all. I never ever worry about their welfare as they so clearly enjoy themselves. Any one who has not tried pet Pals should, it's far kinder than kennels and no one else will look after your dogs better. Sarah Parham
  • I have no hesitation in recommending Matt and Maria. They provided a wonderful caring service in looking after my two bunnies and enabling me to actually get a holiday this year! The bunnies have made it patently obvious that I don't come up to the high standard that they have now come to expect, so I shall be having to go away more often. Clare Randall
  • Matt and Maria provide simply the best most reliable dog walking ever. My dog Penny looks like she has been to heaven and back after ever trip with Matt. Trustworthy and true dog lovers. Most highly recommended. Wonderful service. Leasa Wilkes
  • Our lovely doggie Jazz, a year old border terrier spent his christmas and new year with Matt and Maria. It was hard leaving him at that time of year but we were thrilled with the care that he received. Jazz clearly had a lovely time and received Christmas prezzies too. We would highly recommend this service. Thank you Matt and Maria. Emma

Petpals Winchester

  • Thank you very much for looking after Lola and for keeping the apartment in such good order. She seemed very healthy and happy when we got back. Thank you also for leaving the \'hotties\' over the cold period. When would be convenient for you to collect them? Russell
  • I just wanted to say thanks to Jan for looking after my cat while I was away. She did a fantastic job and I've come back home to a happy and settled cat. I contacted her at very short notice after being let down by a friend. She was extremely helpful and made everything as easy as possible. I will be recommending her to all my pet loving friends! Steph
  • If you are looking for a dog walker or sitter then look no further you have found the person you are after. We first met Jan from Petpals Winchester after being let down by our previous dog walker and the comparison between the two is unbelievable, Jan is a true professional in the work she does and her enthusiasm and love of animals shines through. She is reliable, dependable and consistent in the service she provides. Whenever Jan arrives at our home the excitement Brock & Bute our two English Springer Spaniels display towards her just proves to us how much they love their walks with her. We initially only needed Jan for a short period, but the way the puppies react when they see her and the happiness that they show on their faces when they return from their walk, we now have Jan walk our babies on a regular basis. Not only is this making Brock and Bute happy, but it also provides them with the added benefit of being able to walk with other dogs improving their social skills. David
  • I am contacting you to let you know how pleased I am with Jan, my Petpals dog walker in Winchester. I have 4 dogs, 2 of them are quite old and need a different sort of looking after than the younger 2 who are full of energy. Jan is very competent and caring and the dogs love her! I would never have coped without her, she is always willing to help with the dogs even at short notice. Thank you. V Bennett
  • We still miss Jan every day, Nelson especially. Jan looked after Nelson very frequently for us whether that was a long muddy walk in the fields or stopping overnight to allow us some free time to visit friends she was always willing and available. Nelson is a big dog and as such many other helpers have either struggled with him or we have not trusted to cope. Jan was a complete joy not only managing to control him but really helping him with his socialisation skills. He was always so pleased to see her and we knew he was always in good hands. It was only moving away from the area that we had to give Jan up, we would never have considered it for any other reason. Anyone lucky enough to have access to her wonderful service now should count themselves very fortunate, you just wont find better!
  • Thank you for such a great service, we can relax when we go away knowing everything is well at home
  • You guys are the best
  • Jan has been helping us look after Jake, our Springer Spaniel for the last six months. She cares for him 2 days each week and has also helped us out other times on an ad hoc basis. From the outset it was clear that Jan loved her work and was genuinely interested in getting to know Jake, which was really important to us as he was only 3 months old at the time. We have been delighted with the service Jan provides. It's reliable, flexible and we feel confident that Jake is being well looked after while we're not there. It's also been great for socialising him and he seems to have a great time while he's there. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jan and Petpals to anyone looking for care for their pet. Jan is very responsible and trust worthy and has been instrumental in helping Jake turn into a lovely young dog. Rebecca and Matthew Treagus
  • I can thoroughly recommend Jan from Petpals, Winchester, in her work as a dog-sitter and dog-walker after she has house-sat for my 3 dogs for week while we were on holiday. I have 2 terriers and 1 staffie-cross and the pack are quite challenging. She was highly professional in her care and management of the dogs, and on my return from holiday I found the house in a cleaner state than I had left it so would happily ask her to house-sit or dog-walk for me again. On my return, the dogs were clearly used to lots of attention and enjoyable walks, and I have found Jan's canine knowledge as well as her down-to-earth approach very valuable. I would absolutely recommend her to other dog-owners to support them with their doggie needs Anna Pell

  • REALLY RELIABLE, FANTASTIC SERVICE. MILLY, ADAM AND HRRY THE DOG
  • The pet taxi service was excellent - on time & very professional. Would definitely use Petpals again in the future. Sarah
  • You did a great job, and we were absolutely delighted with the cat sitting service. Knowing you were going to be caring so well for our bundle of double trouble gave us great peace of mind, and we relaxed and had a great time. Will not hesitate to use you again, and will happily recommend you to anyone.
  • Your care and attention to the cats exceeded my hopes.
  • They were unhappy when they returned from the cattery last year, this year they were as we left them, we think they prefer being looked after by you!
  • Very professional dog walking service
  • We would definitely use your cat sitting service again, and would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone.
  • The pet care service you provide is excellent
