Doggy Day Care in Torridge

“Really lovely - visited beforehand to ensure Milo and her dogs got along and he was right at home immediately. I felt really comfortable leaving him while I attended a funeral. I wasn't worried as got constant updates and photos to show that he was having a lovely time and well cared for - which meant I could relax on a difficult day and not have to worry about my pup. Will use again next time I'm in the area and thoroughly recommend for anyone who needs some cover for their pup.”

“Neil and Sarah are the perfect pet caregiver! My dog Mollie loves staying with them, and she always comes home very happy after each visit! Mollie is getting older now so needs shorter walkers and special medication and Neil and Sarah are always happy to accommodate her needs. They also have two lovely dogs themselves who are super friendly with Mollie and keep her entertained. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else!”

“Very pleased with every aspect. The initial meet and greet went well, and then Chester spent the whole day a couple of days later. Andrew and his family were very accommodating on timings & I was sent photos throughout the day and a video, which was appreciated. Will definitely use again.”

“Nicola stepped in at the last minute to help us with our late cancellation … she went above and beyond to help us out, including meeting on route to fetch Gilly and staying up until 22;30 for us to collect her again … Nicola & Simon are amazing, kind people who I have no hesitation in recommending … we will certainly call on them in the future .”

“I am writing with regard to a reference for Lucilla Spencer-Phillips who has been a neighbour and friend for the last 8 years. I would like to confirm that she is most certainly an animal lover and has been the owner of cats and dogs for many years. Her most recent dog Bella was a gentle lovely dog who came to stay with us for a couple of weeks and settled in very well. We found her to be a very happy and balanced dog and was clearly loved and well looked after. In addition to this Lucilla has also kindly looked after our two Jack Russell’s while we have been away on many occasions and this has been very successful. The dogs have again clearly been very well looked after and by the welcome she gets from them I can see they are fond of her and more than happy to be with her. So I would therefore like to say that I highly recommend Lucilla and would thoroughly trust her to care for animals in all sorts of situations.”

“So pleased to have found site and Jill and Greg. Rosie was settled and happy and from the pictures which they sent throughout the day looked like she had a great time! Would definitely use again if in the area.”

“Kit had a wonderful day with Caitlin and Hugh - he came home and slept and slept! Thanks for keeping him entertained and for sending me pictures of fun in the park. Much appreciated that you were able to come and drop Kit off as well. We'll see you again soon!”

“We have a very fussy retriever with a few mobility issues after an accident 4 years ago. Jo was very sympathetic and understanding with his needs. In fact he wanted to stay longer. We would recommend jo very highly and would be happy to leave our precious boy with her again. Thank you Jo!”

“Rebecca has looked after Toby many times. She is very caring and Toby has lots of fun when he is with her. There is lots of woodland in the surrounding area in which they have plenty of walks. It is clear that Toby feels safe and happy when he is with the family. Thank you Rebecca!”

About: Tom has had dogs all his life and has experience in gun dog training. We live with our friendly Labrador who likes nothing more than meeting new friends and dog walks. We live nearby to the beach, burrows and more where we go for dog walks and your dog can be let of the lead if preferred. We work from home on Thursday - Friday when we can look after your dog and if not over the weekend. With Maple here, having an extra dog to enjoy the space would be lovely. We have a fenced off garden with plenty of space to enjoy. We keep Maple downstairs and prefer that for other dogs staying here too. I currently work remotely so am at home with our dog (and can be yours) all day (popping out only occasionally). Dog walks either take place before or after work and often with a short stroll in the middle of the day too. We have a large garden where dogs can play. It’s just us and Maple so would ideally only want 1 additional dog at a time. We are available for day care (if you’re happy for your dog to be at the house whilst I work). We have a large garden where dogs can play. We can look after your dog overnight and can do evening walks on some occasions. It’s just us and Maple so would ideally only want 1 additional dog at a time.

“Lydia was brilliant with my dachshunds- she sent me regular updates to reassure me! One of my dogs has a back weakness and she was great with managing his issues and adapting to suit his needs. Would highly recommend.”

“I can speak very highly of Neil's exceptional care for dogs. He is very careful of the beloved pets that he takes care of. With genuine affection and unwavering dedication, he treats dogs as if they were his own. His extensive experience and deep understanding of canine behaviour ensures that all furry friends receive the utmost attention, affection, and tailored care. Neil goes above and beyond to meet every need of the dogs under his supervision, from meticulously following feeding and exercise routines to providing a nurturing and comfortable environment for rest. His commitment to the well-being and happiness of each dog shines through in every interaction. Not only does Neil excel in the basics of dog care, but he also demonstrates an intuitive understanding of each dog's personality, quirks, and preferences. This personalized approach made a significant difference in each dog's experience and can leave owners with complete peace of mind whenever they have to be away. I wholeheartedly recommend Neil to anyone seeking compassionate, reliable, and skilled care for their furry companions. He is truly exceptional in every aspect of dog caregiving.”

“A very caring and attentive person, who gives my dog endless love when she’s with her. Also looked after my cats a lot too. Gives them plenty of fuss and they love it when she visits for a cup of tea. She likes taking my doggy to different places and exploring in the woods.”

“Feel very lucky to have found Leanne especially at such short notice! Storm was a very very happy doggy when we came to get her and she clearly had an amazing day including meeting cows and sheep! Thank you so much xx”

About: Dogs are my favourite type of people! With two rescue dogs from Cyprus, I’m pretty savvy with dog behaviour and keeping a harmonious pet friendly house. No home is without a wagging tail! I work full-time but I work part of my week from home. This changes week to week, so please message me in advance as I may or may not be home to look after your furry best friend. I have a small fenced garden, with two friendly rescue dogs to keep your fur baby company. I would walk them on my lunch break on the Appledore coastal path and provide them with snacks.
