Catherine was fantastic from start to finish. Really welcomed our dog Vinnie into her home. So attentive he was immediately smitten. Would definitely recommend.

Catherine took excellent care of our dog for the day. She was professional, reliable, and kept us updated throughout. Our dog was well cared for, and we would happily recommend her services.

Catherine was brilliant with our Dog Remy, she truly went above and beyond when looking after Remy and sent up videos of him having a great time! Can’t recommend Catherine enough 10/10

My dog Clive stayed with Catherine and her husband last night. I took Clive to the house to see Catherine and let him have a feel of the place. I knew almost immediately he would be in the best hands. I had no doubts about leaving him there. He can be a handful at the best of times but she is very experienced, very kind and knowledgeable and managed him beautifully. He was in the best hands, living his best life. I would not hesitate to recommend or use again. Thank you ❤️ 😊
