Super pet care -Dog walking

Pet assist came to my rescue at very short notice but still managed to come and meet the pets and myself before I had to go away for a few days.
Jane and Sean were so helpful and flexible- nothing was too much trouble.
I would highly recommend them and will be using them again in the future ?

Bird Boarding

Jane has looked after Lucy our love bird for a number of years. Lucy has always been well looked after and Jane has always been available for us to leave and collect Lucy.
We were lucky to find Jane

Great Service – rabbit boarding

So pleased I came across Pet Assist Animal Care. They offer a friendly professional service and they clearly love all animals. Our rabbit came back happy and chilled, will definately be using them again!

Julia Sellers

Great friendly service

Jane and Shaun pet sat for our two miniature dachshunds while me and my wife were at a wedding. They stepped in at short notice when our previous plans fell through. Our shy dogs responded well to their friendly personalities and we felt at ease with leaving Rufus and Ralph for the night. It helped us to enjoy our evening out safe in the knowledge they were in good hands. Jane sent a text to let us know the boys had settled. I would definitely use pet assist in the future.

Cat and kitten care – We went away for a break

Cat and kitten care visits

We went away for a few days and had arranged for pet assist animal care to visit twice a day. While we were away we received some photos plus texts from Jane which was reassuring. On our return we found our cat and her 2 kittens happy and relaxed. It is good to know that someone is able to come and care for our pets in their own home.

Pet taxi

Pet Taxi service

We used pet assist taxi service to collect our Airedale from the vets after surgery. Jane was really helpful and accommodating, great communication and everything went like clockwork. I would definitely recommend them.

Thank you

Thank you so much for looking after the girls so beautifully.

Great help

Dog walks Charlie

Shaun walked my dog for 3 weeks whilst on holiday.
From reports from my Mum who was housing him for the duration the dog got very excited before each walk and had no issues.
Although everything went well, my only grumble was that we agreed a time frame around 9am each day but it wasn’t until 10.30 some days that he got walked, with dogs they like routine.
I’d highly recommend Shaun and will use him again!

Reply from Pet Assist Animal care:

Thank you for using our service, Charlie is a lovely boy. There was no specified on the booking sheet. So in view of this we visited your mum prior to starting. It was agreed the walks could be anytime between 9.30am-10.30am and 3.30-4.30pm. It is difficult to meet times dead on, as we travel between jobs and traffic is a nightmare to navigate around this area. We are based over the other side of Scarborough, which can take between 10 – 30 mins to get over to your side of Scarborough. So we always suggest a window around an approximate time. We try our best. We will take on board your comments and try beat the clock net time. Thank you, and love to Charlie. Jane and Shaun.

Happy dog, happy owners

Hourly visits and night sleeps – Lily

We have a very loveable but anxious border collie who was rescued, so kennels are out of the question. We went away for the weekend and Shaun and Jane popped in to see her over the weekend and stayed overnight. We had regular texts and updates throughout the weekend which kept us happy. When we got home Lily was relaxed and happy. We will definitely be using Shaun and Jane again and would recommend them.

Lance Goulding

A caring service spot on.

Cat care visits – Luna

We got back from holiday to the happiest cat ever. House clean, cat well fed and clearly loved whilst we were away. Everything I wanted. Thank you.

Shelbys dog walks

Dog walks

Pet Assist have been fantastic in supporting with dog walks for Frenchie Shelby when I’m at work. They have come at short notice and have always been happy to facilitate days and times and I can highly recommend their service.

Our Guinea Pigs enjoyed their ‘hotel break’

Boarding Guinea Pigs

Pet Assist looked after our Guinea Pigs recently, I was impressed with their professionalism and their obvious love of animals. It was nice not to have to bring our own cage as it is very big and heavy. It was also great to get a text halfway through our holiday to let me know that the piggies were doing fine. When I picked them up they seemed happy and relaxed which is a great sign. Thank you, I will definitely use you again should the need arise

Dog sitting Saturday night

Pet sitting while we were at a show

We left Monty with confidence in Shauns hands. Both he and Jane came to the hotel and Shaun remained to take him for a long walk and played with him in the bar. We thoroughly enjoyed the show we went to see knowing he was in good hands.

Daily visits

Cat visits

We had daily visits for our cat while we were away for a week. Jane sent us pics and texts reassuring us Ginge was fine which was very much appreciated. Ginge isn’t really a people person but he looked genuinely happy. Lovely people. Would definitely recommend and use again in the future.

Amazing service!!!

Guinea pig boarding – July 2019

What an amazing service!!! I would highly recommend to anyone and I will certainly be bringing my guinea pigs back!

Thank you so much for keeping in touch and sending pictures through out my holiday, letting me know how they were. I was completely relaxed knowing they were in great care. Very lovely, caring couple with such a passion for animals. Thank you again, I appreciate all the effort that you went to and if anybody needs animal care I will certainly point them in your direction 🙂 Becky

My two Guinea Pigs stayed

Guinea pig boarding – July 2019

My two Guinea Pigs stayed with Jane recently, they were both really well looked after, I even received a couple of updates while I was away on how they were getting on which was lovely. I would definitely take my Guinea pigs to Jane again when I next go away.

Cat Care home visits – April/May 2019

Shaun came and fed my lovely little monkey while I was on holiday. He really bonded with my little man and it’s such a shame I’ve moved town now as i know Dorito liked having him round

Dog visits

Jane and Sean have been looking after my four dogs for the past year and a reliable and trustworthy they always message me if the dogs haven’t eaten or they’re poorly so I would definitely recommend Jane and Sean

Christine Davenport

Great service

Percy – regular dog walks (since May 2017 to present – ongoing)

Jane and Sean are 100% reliable in walking my dog. I’m working full time and couldn’t be a pet owner without them. My dog loves Sean and leaps off the sofa at the same time each day, knowing that walkie time is approaching.

Your pet in loving hands

Cat Care home visist – ongoing since 2016

I once left my cat in a cattery for a fortnight while we went away on holiday. We came home a day earlier than expected and went to pick up our pet. We were shocked by the state of the cattery and the apparent lack of care our cat had received. It took him – and us – a while to get over the experience. Since then, we have chosen not to use catteries. This is not to say there are aren’t catteries out there that can be trusted – I’m sure there are, but from our experience leaving our pet at home is the best for all concerned.

Since we came to Scarborough, we have entrusted Jayne at PetAssist to look after our beloved Talisker, and now Biscuit. We wouldn’t do so unless we were sure she gives them the love, care and attention that we ourselves give. Each time we come home, we find a healthy, content cat that has obviously enjoyed Jayne popping round to look after him. If she didn’t have love for cats and their welfare, she would not be able to do the job she does very well. We therefore have no hesitation in recommending Jayne to look after your pet while you’re away.

Rabbit boarding – Last visit September 2019

We have used Jane a few times now where she looks after our house rabbits 🐰 they both enjoy there stay and we can relax knowing they’re in safe hands

Brilliant cat care

Cat pop-in visits – August 2019

We had to go away for a few days and our cats were wonderfully looked after. Not only they were okay with feeding our cats a raw diet, when I came home I found my three cats very relaxed and happy. I will definitely use their services again if ever need them in the future

Fantastic Service

Rabbit boarding July 2019

Luckily came across Pet Assist Animal Care when looking for somewhere for our rabbit to stay whilst we were on holiday. Jane and Shaun were very welcoming, helpful and provide a fantatic service. You can tell they genuinely care for animals, which was very reassuring. Charley had her own safe, secure hutch with plenty of room to move around. The photos and updates whilst we were away were great, and Charley came back very happy and chilled following her stay. Couldn’t reccomend this service highly enough!

Sam Colling

Thank you

Guinea Pig boarding – Woody & Winter – JULY 2019

Our two guineapigs Woody and Winter came back from their stay very happy and content. Nothing was too much trouble and it was great to get a text halfway through the week saying they are ok. It is great to have a choice of either an indoor or outdoor cage and ours stayed outside in a new lovely big cage with a large run. It is clear to see how much you love the pets that stay with you and we would definitely recommend you. Thanks again.

Happy Pups

Casper and Scamp – dog walks and pop-in visits – Nov 2019

Was away for 5 nights and needed a walker to help out the family member staying with our 2 dogs. Pet Assist have been very flexible working round our home routine, Shaun got on with our dogs well and was very patient (even when one got a bit snappy at him), no problems and came back to some well-cared for pups. Will happily use again next time we go away 😁

Amy Campleman

100% Recommend

I am very particular with who my animals go to as they are my absolute world. When I met Jane and Shaun I could tell straight off the bat that they really cared for animals. I would definitely trust leaving my boys with them any day! Very professional lovely people and I would definitely use their services again! Thank you lots !
