Animals at Home - Crystal Palace & Dulwich

[sammers]

If anyone is thinking of using Ian Bell from Animals at Home for any pet related duties, please do not. He is not fit to look after animals. Left our pets in a terrible state when we went away on holiday and now won't admit any guilt and won't issue a refund. Avoid at all costs.

So sorry to hear this. Our little cat is always very happy when we get back from holidays using Ian.

This sounds awful. How were they in a terrible state?

Have you left them with other people caring for them before and they were fine?

I just ask because I once put a cat into a cattery for the first (and only) time and when we went to collect him he was shivering in fright, clearly hadn't been eating and was very pleased to see us. But I'm not sure it was the cattery which was to blame.

I realise that's different to leaving animals in your own home with someone coming in.

Ian walks our dog every day and also takes her to his house for one full day each week. Whenever we go on holiday she stays with him at his house. We have never had any problems whatsoever and our dog loves him to bits (which is clear when we see them together). I would recommend Ian to anyone looking for a dog walker / sitter in this area.

I meant to add to my last post he will also give you updates on your pets while you are away if you like. Always been very happy with ian.

Yes - further explanation of the problem is rather important if you're going to come on to a public forum and trash someone's business.
