After nearly a year of retirement, my husband and I had not been able to go abroad because we simply didn’t have anyone we trusted to look after our two-year-old Labrador. We are absolutely delighted to have found Gill. From the moment we met her, everything just felt right. Our dog had the most wonderful time with her, and much to my surprise, I didn’t worry about him at all while we were away. Gill kept us updated with lovely photos and messages, and when she took him out, she even used a tracker for extra peace of mind, which we really appreciated. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and we cannot thank her enough. Thanks to Gill, we can finally look forward to booking our first holiday in retirement with complete confidence. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy and professional dog sitter.

I have no hesitation in recommending Gill. Our cavapoo boarded with her for 3 nights. Gill went out of her way to make sure she was happy and was willing to meet up a couple of times beforehand to ensure the stay went well. We will be using her again!

I felt really confident leaving Ralf and Rodney with Gill. I got lots of photos of them having fun and making new Labrador friends which was lovely! I would definitely recommend Gill

Gill is a super lady, she walks our dog Teddy. Teddy adores her and gets very excited when she comes round. I have known Gill, as a colleague and friend for over 10 years. She friendly, attentive and loving towards dogs. She is very trustworthy and you can definitely trust her with your dogs(s) either for short walks or stay overs.

A typical day
