The 30 Best Pets in Wakefield

“Really helpful and friendly in guiding me through the requirements of obtaining an Animal Health Certificate for travelling abroad with Otto the Miniature Schnauzer. They were great with Otto during his examination and vaccination. Definitely recommend their services.”

“Amazing service, we went away for 10 days to Italy and knew our dogs would be looked after perfectly. We were kept updated by Lucy while away with messages/photos of our dogs and they looked like they were having a great time. She took them on daily walks and to dog parks off their own back. When coming home our house was left clean and in order which is great when coming back from a long holiday. Would highly recommend their service and will be using them again for sure.”

“Great local pet food store with a wide range and variety of pet food ,harnesses, treats, all natural or bagged and plenty of lotions and liquids to pamper you pets , fantastic ice cream parlour round the back for you and your pooch to have an ice cream together 5*”

“Took ny labradoodle for a trim and they did a brilliant job. Cut her just as I wanted. Nails clipped and smelling fresh aswell”

“Did an amazing first clip of my Mini Schnauzer puppy Finlay will definitely be back and also highly recommended as he wasn't stressed one bit, the whole team were just lovely and welcoming.”

“On a chilly October night my delivery to the pharmacy was missed by their supplier, this meant I didn’t have a supply of Simecone until at least Monday as it was now Friday. Thorpe sourced and delivered some at 19.45. Amazing service again from this superb business. Big thanks to them.”

“First class shop , supplies all pet and pigeon products. Known Peter for 40 years , was an excellent pigeon man of experience and advice.”

“Fantastic stay. Theresa on the desk was so welcoming and friendly and went out of her way to ensure we had a positive stay. Good location for Wakefield centre”

“Always shop here for my pet food, great range of choice and the staff are always helpful!”

“Been twice now to this lovely little shop, really good prices and good selection of quality treats.”

“Needed to take my daughter"s dog on short notice but this involved getting his records moved over from their home surgery. The admin staff couldn't have been more helpful or kind and the vet himself was very attentive, efficient amd knowledgeable. Result: one happy dog and one relieved dog grandparent!”

“I have always felt listened to when explaining problems with my dog, never felt rushed by anyone, benji is not easy to deal with as he is a rescue and has his issues but as always I find Calder Vets very caring and helping Benji all they can”

“My little pooch simply loves having a pamper here- after some bad grooming experiences I was convinced she would never settle if I left her. From the first visit Daisy settled... she's one happy pooch when I take her and on collection she's more than happy to stay! Thanks to everyone x”

“The team within The Spa at Jollyes Wakefield are fantastic. Since rehoming a dachshund I have brought her from 11 weeks old for her claws trimming as it’s a two man job, and every time I call to check for a drop in they always accommodate me and my dog no longer dreads having her nails trimmed and filed with how gentle they are with her!”

“I took my dogs for their nails trimmed and the girl was lovely, one of my dogs hates his feet being touched but she was really gentle with him and got the job done efficiently and quickly.”

“Cannot thank Sophie enough for her knowledge and caring nature, I have had a poorly puppy for a couple of days and suspected she was allergic to her puppy food, mainly when opening a new bag, she wasn't eating much and had a bad tummy. Sophie explained every dog food in detail and which ones would help a sensitive tummy, we settled on AVA, within minutes of returning home the puppy had eaten a full bowl of food and her energy returned. I cannot thank her enough.”

“I would highly recommend this vets. I've been taking my cats here for years and have received an excellent service from reception to the medical team. They are all thorough with their knowledge and examinations and are so friendly. They also give me the option of my cats having a tasty treat if they are admitted, which my cats obviously love!”

“Managed to get a short notice appointment for our poorly cat. She was seen promptly and the vet was lovely with her and explained thoroughly what the problem was and what treatment was required both immediately and going forward. Very happy with the service she received”

“We stayed at Wakefield Lime Lodge for a work trip and it was a great little hotel. Very clean, great rates, and excellent service. A special mention to Georgina on reception — really friendly and informative, and made us feel very welcome. If we’re ever in the area again, we’ll definitely stay here without hesitation. Highly recommended.”

“Staff are friendly and helpful. Store is well stocked and easy to get to.”

“I took my German Shepherd Tyke for his booster and check up .He can sometimes be a little skittish at the vets but Suzanne soon put him at ease .She has a very gentle caring approach and is extremely knowledgeable. My dog received a thorough check up and didn't flinch with the vaccination and kennel cough .She is a very friendly and approachable vet who doesn't rush the client and is very thorough .She is a breath of fresh air and a credit to the company The young lady on the reception was also so very helpful and patient when I was filling out my healthy pet club forms I can highly recommend my local vets practice in Wakefield”

“Great supermarket. Love the Wakefield one. Went in the other day and got great help from one of the staff. Think he was called Sam? Said he’d just started and didn’t know much but managed to get me what I was looking for Please give him a pat on the back”

“Had a one night stay here last Friday. Room was very comfortable. No air conditioning but there was a pedestal fan in the room which was effective. The shower was amazing. Very comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast. All the staff we met (Jane, Sue and Tonia) were really friendly and helpful.”

“Simply brilliant pet store. Been going since our Lab was a pup. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, always happy to help and advise. Great selection of pet foods. Would never go to one of the 'big chain' stores again.”

“The vet was lovely with my cat Benjamin today. He was quick and proficient and even wormed him for me to save me the hassle. I think Benji would have been happy to stay. Highly recommend these vets. Staff are always friendly and polite.”

“We had an unplanned stay having been stuck in traffic for 7 hours. We arrived late in the evening. A lovely chap called Cain helped me book a room. His service was impressive. He was welcoming and friendly. An asset to Travel lodge. Clean room , comfy beds. Would definitely recommend.”

“Had a lovely 3 night stay here with my daughter. The hotel is clean and comfortable and the staff are genuinely friendly and take time to engage with their guests - we really felt welcomed. The buffet breakfast selection was good and items regularly replenished. The location is very central - it's an easy walk from the station, and public transport is good. Also lots of cafes, bars and eating places nearby. We took local buses to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and to Sandal Castle, and hopped on Wakefield's free bus to get to and from the Hepworth Gallery. Would definitely stay here again.”

“This marks my second reservation at this establishment, and it continues to leave me thoroughly impressed. The interior and exterior are both stunning, adorned with beautiful decor that showcases an impressive attention to detail. The ambiance feels akin to a 5-star hotel, mirroring the accuracy of the presented pictures. The cleanliness, comfort, and spaciousness make it an ideal choice for both couples and small families. Situated conveniently close to the train station and city center, the location adds to the overall appeal. A charming little park just across from the apartment enhances the experience. The host is not only friendly but also exceptionally helpful. Without a doubt, this has become my go-to accommodation every time I'm in Wakefield for business.”

“Had a nice stay at this hotel ,the room was nice and the breakfast probably the best I've had at ihg hotel for many years Natalie was so professional and helpful at check in nothing was a problem to her such a credit to the hotel The manager on duty at the time Ash served with a smile on her face as did colleague April Will definitely stay here again”

“I Have been taking my springer spaniel dog Cooper here from been a puppy he has always settled in well and when we go to pick him up he cant make his mind up if he wants to stay or come home with us they treat him like there own dog it's well run business and keeps everything up to date we can go away with piece of mind knowing he will be safe and loved in home surroundings not in kennels. .”
