This was the first time we had left our five year old springer spaniel with anyone other than family. As soon as we met Francis during our Meet and Greet session we were immediately put at ease as we could see straight away how comfortable Chester was with him. He stayed with Francis for two nights while we attended a family wedding and we were totally relaxed while we were away as we knew Chester was very happy. Francis sent photos and videos to us and we could see how much Chester was enjoying his stay. We would definitely recommend Francis and will be happy to book with him again.

Finding someone to look after our beautiful boy, Max, whilst we all went to a family wedding was daunting. Numerous options on Rover with a handful of 5* reviews, trying to narrow it down to someone who only takes one dog at a time, someone who looks kind and able to handle our Staff who thinks everyone is his friend but can also be like a bowling ball as he enthusiastically comes to greet you. We then found Francis. Endless 5* reviews and lots of pictures to reassure us he could handle our Staff. We arranged a meet and greet; Francis was very obviously a dog person and Max took to him straight away. When the day of the wedding arrived, Max could not wait to get into the house. We took his bed, but Francis had beds upstairs and downstairs. Francis is very well equipped to look take care of your dog and his house is extremely welcoming and dog friendly. Max had a great time judging by the videos we received. Francis asked us if we wanted videos, we did and it was very reassuring to receive them. If you are lucky enough to find a slot available in Francis’ calendar then grab it quickly. You will not be disappointed and your dog will thank you for it.
