Pet care experience

Friendly family of Animal people

We are a friendly family of three. My wife and I both grew up with many dogs in South Africa. My 7 year old son adores any animals and we currently have only one cat (Bootsy), who my son loves too much. We have a nice big house with a private garden and a large open space right at the front door for walkies and a good run.

Thank you so much for the love and care you gave my little old lady Treacle. She seemed happy in photos and when I came to collect her. Thank you for giving her a nice bath before I collected her, that was kind of you.

We couldn't have asked for better people to look after Willow. From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in the best hands. She was treated like one of the family, with so much love, attention and cuddles, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about her wellbeing and happiness. Their communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we collected Willow, she was happy, relaxed and so clearly loved. It means the world to know that we can leave her with people we trust completely. We would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog as if it were their own. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our girl!

My Daughter and Son in law took my dogs to Ferdinand's, and told me today what a lovely couple they are. My dogs are very well looked-after, and Ferdinand sends photos of them at various time. I can recommend him and his wife

We couldn’t have asked for a better family to look after Teddy. They have gone above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. Teddy even made a friend with their cat which is amazing. Thank you for taking such a good care of TeddyBear.

I did leave a review 1st thing this morning bit it seems not to have registered. Ferdinand and his family were great. We took the dogs to meet them prior to the booked day and had no worries at all about leaving them there. Ferdinand sent me some photos during the day, and when I went to collect them they were perfectly happy..I have no hesitation in recommending Ferdinand
