We have a 15 year old blind and deaf dachshund and a 7 year old ‘master manipulator’ dachshund and we have never left them at home to go away on holiday ever. They always went to family but with the old guys needs he needed to be in his own environment/home. Stumbled across Gillian & Ronnie here on Rover and from the first meet I just knew instantly I had to have them in my home and with my boys for the week. They are truly some of the nicest people I have met and the boys took to them straight away. We went on holiday and did not worry one bit, we were updated with pictures and messages and it was so lovely to see them all bond over the week. My home is exactly how I left it and couldn’t be happier. I would 100% recommend this gorgeous couple to look after your furry kids. Totally exceeded my expectations 😍 Thankyou Gillian & Ronnie, so grateful for everything you have done for us ❤️

Very pleased! Bob was so relaxed when we got home so I knew he had been well cared for. Really appreciated the photo of Bob playing - very reassuring. Already booked again 😊

Jodie has been an absolute super star with house sitting my two dogs for a week and I would highly recommend her. She works as a team with her mum Gillian and once I'd submitted my request they both came to meet my dogs and I. Josie was so attentive and understanding with of my dogs temperaments and needs, as one is old and blind and the other is quite anxious. Jodie took it all in her strid,mrssaged me with any questions and sent daily updates with pictures and videos which meant I could really relax and enjoy the holiday knowing my girls were in good hands. Jodie also cleansed and tidied the hosue for our return which was great to come back to. I'll definitely book Jodie again when I need to 😊

I also love to clean and organise so if this is something you are also interested in, then I am the person for you.
