First class service from Waggy Tail Cottage.
Such lovely people, you can tell that they genuinely love what they do…Our pointer Puddle went to stay for a trial as he is a very anxious dog and has massive separation issues….Puddle loved the walks they went on and loved Grant and Angela but just wouldn’t settle down, he kept howling for us…We knew it might have been a problem, so thank you for giving it a go….I would recommend Grant and Angela 100%
Top notch care from Grant and Angela. Lizi has developed some mobility issues and they couldn't have been more kindly and professional. Updates were regular, informative and reassuring. It was the first time Lizi has been away from us or not staying with friends she knows well in the 5 1/2 years we've had her and she settled in with no problems. We just hope they will have space next time we need doggy care for Lizi. Thank you very much.
Harris had a fantastic stay with Grant. We really appreciated the regular updates on how he'd settled etc. Grant sent us brilliant videos showing Harris on walks 🥰 A huge thanks to Grant and Angela for looking after Harris so well.
Grant and Angela were amazing. It started with a very professional meet and greet introducing us to their home and allowing them to meet our Labradoodle Bentley. Grant has a Health and Safety background and was very thorough/comprehensive in his introduction.They also introduced him to Otis who would be overlapping his stay with Bentley by half a day. A few days later we left Bentley in their care for two nights. Bentley has separation anxiety however settled in really well. Grant gave us regular updates including Video which really put us at easy seeing Bentley's tail wagging away. We have tried kennels before in which Bentley lost his voice and nose was raw from pushing against the kennel door. Such a relief to have found Grant and Angela. When we picked Bentley up it was very clear he had already formed a bond with Grant and Angela. Emotions dont lie - was great to see. Really was a home from home.
I would like to say a big thank you to Grant for looking after our dog ,Rosie. This was Rosie’s first stay with him and we had a couple of visits to meet Grant and see where Rosie would be staying.Grant sent us videos and updates regularly and Rosie was very happy during her stay.Highly recommend Grant and definitely will have Grant watch Her again.

I'm semi retired and my wife works from home so your dog will rarely be left on its own. I live in the countryside with loads of great walks on our doorstep. I have a fully enclosed garden and a non smoking home.
