Safe Caring Dog Sitting Service

Pet care experience

Hi. My name is Karen and I am a dog lover who lives in Colchester. I would guarantee that your dog would be treated as one of the family. We live opposite a lovely park so lots of nice walks. We often look after our friends pets so we do have experience with dogs. We also spend time in Mersea so lots of visits to the beach. We would have a meet and greet so that we can get to know your dog. We would send regular updates and pictures. We look forward to welcoming your pet to our home.

I would happily recommend Karen to anyone. We left our dog for the longest we'd left him and I couldn't have felt more understood and at ease. Our dog was completely relaxed and chilled out, apparently he didn't want to leave on his collection. Karen invited us over for a visit prior to booking in, which I really appreciated and gave our dog some time to get used to new surroundings with me there. I wholly recommend Karen to anyone on the fence about booking!

Karen was amazing and provided a wonderful holiday for our dog! We arranged a meet up prior to booking and Rocket instantly took a liking to their home. Karen was thorough in her questions even providing a questionnaire to ensure Rocket had a comfortable stay. We received regular photos and updates and they even took him for some swim time in Mersea! It was such a relief to know he was having a great time while we were away. We would absolutely recommend and thanks again!!

I couldn’t recommend Karen enough. She’s so caring and extremely responsible. She is 100% trustworthy and I would be happy to leave my pooch with her again! Xx

I have known Karen for over 30 years and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her as a dog-sitter. Her caring and compassionate nature combined with her devotion to animals makes her perfect for this role. She has excellent communication skills and the ability to fully understand and support the needs for unrivalled pet-care.
