Whiskers Pet Care

What my customers say....

I love what I do, and I take huge pride in doing the best I possibly can for the animals I take care of. I have some lovely customers - and their human carers are pretty good too!! Lots of them have wanted to tell me how happy they've been with my service. Many of my customers are always very pleased to pass on references, so if you'd like me to put you in contact with some, do please let me know.

Our 14 year old Collie Cross, Jodie, suffered from Arthritis in her back legs. The Reiki from Jean really calmed her down, in fact, even towards the end of her life, she didn't appear to be in any pain at all. Jean's help was much appreciated at a very difficult time, and we felt we were giving our dog a very special gift when drugs were not the answer.

Jean came to look after our three cats while we were away on holiday. As well as following feeding instructions to the letter, Jean also dealt faultlessly with giving medication to our poorly cat - something that only the most ardent cat-lover would ever usually attempt - and her positive, calming energy meant that our family probably never even noticed that we weren't there. The cats definitely want her to come back again soon, and so do we.
from Andrew and Robert

We would have no hesitation in recommending Jean to take care of your extended (four-legged) “family members” . From our first meeting we picked up on Jean’s calm, warm and caring nature. We had just adopted two 12 year old cats with a history of problems. Jean not only took wonderful care of them whilst we were away, she has also taken a great interest in trying to help us with solutions for their future care. Jean takes pet sitting very seriously, keeping in close contact while you are away, with regular text messages and often going above and beyond the call of duty.

I will always remember when Jean insisted on coming with me to the vet the day we lost our poor Skye, I don't know what I would have done without her. Every animal she cares for becomes a big part of Jean's life. Jean has an in-depth knowledge of petcare and behaviour issues, it has been a pleasure to work with her – we will certainly continue to use Jean for as long as she will have us!! A big thank you from Alan and Ann (not to mention Jade).

We cannot recommend Jean highly enough! Our cat Nia suffered encephalitis when she was a kitten, which has left her with wonky back legs. As she is a house cat the home is her domain, so there was no question of putting her in a cattery. In the past, going away was always tinged with guilt and concern. Since we contacted Jean our lives have been transformed. We know that with Jean's kindness, warmth and patience, Nia is happy being looked after by her. It's as though we have never been away! Many thanks, and Nia is looking forward to seeing you again soon.
from Mel and Nick

Thank you so much for looking after us over the past few weeks. We love our cuddles with you especially. We can't wait to see you again in March. We know that our Mum appreciates what you do for us too.

What you did on Friday was very much appreciated by us all. Thank you for your kindness and going beyond your normal time to give comfort to Oscar and especially Felix.
With love and gratitude, Kath, Oscar and Felix

Many thanks for looking after the moggies whilst we went off galavanting abroad for a few days.

I wanted to write this in testimonial form to say the service you gave as an in house cat sitter was just fantastic!! I cannot recommend highly enough, the peace of mind that our furry kids were looked after to such an amazingly high level was priceless! I think Ted and Dill were disappointed it was us that came in the door off our holiday, and not you!
Much love, Chaz, Andy, Ted and Dill! xxx

We feel very blessed to have found you, and are dreading next year when we are planning on moving out of the area. Anyone that asks, I always recommend your services and don't think I could ever go back to a cattery again. You have a genuine love of cats and we can tell how well you look after Honi by how happy she is when we return from holidays. As some of your Reiki rubs off on Honi we have seen major changes in her in the last couple of years since using you, so it does something, not sure what, but she is a changed kitty. I find it very interesting reading your Blog and newsletter - I enjoy reading stories about other pets, and updates on the Animals in Distress shelter, and was thrilled to see Honi's photographic debut in her Debenhams bag!

Jean has been looking after Oscar and Felix for over a year now and finding her has been a godsend. The boys are so much more relaxed being able to stay at home whilst I am away, to the degree that friends and family have commented on how much more relaxed and friendly they are. Not only does Jean come in to do the usual feeding and litter, she genuinely cares for the boys and makes a fuss of them and goes out of her way to make sure they are comfortable and cared for. Jean is very considerate towards the owners as well, sending text messages with updates on how the boys are. I have no hesitation in recommending Jean to others, she is reliable, friendly, thoughtful and caring and I can't think of anyone else I would trust to look after and care for the cats like Jean does.
From Kath

Whiskers Pet Care was recommended to my husband and I by a work colleague and we have been extremely impressed by the committed service that Jean provides for our cat Purdey. She even sends texts to update us about Purdey whilst we're away. Purdey is always very happy after Jean has been looking after her. We've recommended Jean to a number of friends and we're extremely happy with the service that she provides.
From Catherine and Marcus

I know when I am away that Suki (my kitty)is being cared for, played with, groomed, fed and watered, but most of all loved so I can relax when I am not at home. Suki is so happy when Jean has been to visit, almost happier with Jean than me! If it's peace of mind you are after then go ahead and leave your pet in the capable hands of Whiskers Pet Care, you and your cats will be happy!
