Pet care experience

Animal loving family home.

We’re a very friendly family. My husband Jonny and I have three children aged 10, 8, and 6 who absolutely love dogs! While we don’t currently have pets of our own, we’ve both grown up with dogs and regularly enjoy walking and caring for our friends' dogs. Our home is in a quiet corner of a peaceful close, with plenty of space inside and a large, secure garden for your dog to play and relax. I’m home full-time, so your dog will receive lots of love, attention, and daily walks. We’d be delighted to welcome your dog into our home and treat them like part of the family.

Carly and her family were our life savers when they agreed to take Binky our Jack Russell less than two days before our holiday to Greece was due to start after another Rover sitter let us down that we had booked almost a year in advance. Binky was traumatised after a two day stay with them for a wedding, two days before our holiday trip, as they kept her with three male dogs which we were not told about. They did not want to take her for another week and told us to find another sitter. We told Carly about this but were not able to visit Carly to meet Binky due to the distance between us as we had to look near Gatwick due to the time issue, but we were able to chat enough in that short space of time to satisfy both of us that it would be a good placement. Whilst away we received photos showing Binky with her children playing, walking, laid out sleeping and generally having a wonderful time which made our holiday so much more relaxing - bearing in mind the trauma of the sitters who had let us down at the last minute. When we picked Binky up she greeted us excitedly and then carried on with the children as if we weren't there. A brilliant stay and we really appreciate what it means to have someone like Carly as a Rover sitter. We will be using her again if we need to fly from Gatwick or a similar situation as it is so convenient.

What a lovely and welcoming family. Wilson was so well looked after and given plenty of hugs and attention. I would, without question, book again and would definitely recommend. You couldn’t ask for better care for your dog.

Ralph had a great time at Carly's, he got cuddles all day. Carly sent lovely photos of her children playing with Ralph. Carly will be my top choice for our next holiday!

Carly was excellent with Jenga. He had such a good day with her. Came back tired, which is a sign of a happy pup. Would highly recommend.
