We are so happy to have found somewhere that Alfie is so comfortable. It really feels like he has had a holiday as well! We got lots of lovely photos that made us feel at ease and know he was very well looked after. Thank you! We will be using again!

This was a practice stay before a long visit and Alfie seemed to have a great time. We got lots of photos that showed him both having fun and relaxing, which made us feel at ease. We look forward to dropping him off again on Saturday and are happy knowing he is well looked after while we are getting married abroad!

Would highly recommend Maria and Andrew, they are super lovely and our dog Daisy always has a brilliant time. They always keep us updated with how she is doing and send plenty of pictures!

Wow what can I say, Maria and Andrew have been amazing with our little Luna 🫶🏻❤️ they took such good care of her, certainly home from home. They kept us updated every day on their adventures with lovely walks. Anytime I asked a question they responded immediately. Their home is immaculate too! This was the first time we have left her with anyone else but family so it has made our holiday complete. Luna can’t wait to stay again! Thankyou Maria and Andrew ❤️🫶🏻

Wonderful in multiple ways, highly communicative and friendly. Clearly very good with dogs. Our dog was happy, full and bright and we collected him. A very dog friendly home and easy to speak with. We've already rebooked for another dog stay!

Maria and Andrew are the best! This was Poppy's second time with them and she knew exactly where we were going as we pulled up to their house. They kept us updated on the fun adventures they were having as a pack. I know Poppy was in the best of hands with people who truly appreciate her and are willing to give her a great time. They are basically running a holiday resort for dogs!
