Special thanks to Kate who we can highly recommend. Kate and her family were great with our dog Vinnie, it was the very first time we had left him; he can be very anxious but settled in with them very well for the week that we were away. We received daily updates and photos and would be very happy to leave him with Kate again.

Kate and her partner are delightful, I knew Bonnie felt comfortable with them as soon as we arrived at their home and I felt very happy leaving Bonnie in their care. I received lots of photos and I could see Bonnie was happy and would not hesitate to leave Bonnie with Kate again. Thank you Kate?!

I can't recommend Kate highly enough. She is fabulous with our two small dogs, I have never seen them so relaxed and content than after a few days with Kate and her partner. Excellent communication throughout their stay and a huge weight off for us while we're away.

Kate was so kind and reassuring when we contacted her as it was the first time we were going to leave our dog Toffee to go away. She even made time to meet us a few days before we were due to go away to familiarise herself with us and Toffee. Her home is perfect for a dog with a nice completely enclosed garden and really nice country walks a few minutes away, she works from home with her partner so we knew Toffee would be getting the attention she needs and put our minds at rest. While away we received regular updates of how Toffee was doing and photos of her which was great. When we went to collect her, Toffee looked like she had made herself at home and seemed as if she had thoroughly enjoyed her stay, we will without a doubt use Kate in the future!

Katy looked after my two spaniels a month or two ago and she was very patient and caring to their needs. I can tell she is very passionate about animals, particularly dogs and she has a very good nature and tone. I had two very happy doggies back and I didn’t have to worry about a thing!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a secure, decent size fenced garden which is ideal for dogs, and bi-fold doors so we can keep these open for the dogs to roam freely safely

A typical day

We have a lot of room in the house, we’d start with an early morning walk in the fields nearby, we live right on the edge of Epping forest so there’s lots of greenery! It’s also very rural so it’s very quiet and we live on a side road (opposite greenery) so there’s hardly any traffic
