Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Mel and Damian were absolutely amazing! This was Juno’s first time staying with someone else than our family, so we were so grateful to find someone who are so knowledgeable about dog behaviour, positive, warm, and communicating really well. We can’t recommend them highly enough :)

Vargo enjoyed his stay with Melanie and Damian. They are friendly and very knowledgeable about dogs. They took Vargo on various activities which he would love. I would not hesitate to have Melanie look after Vargo in the future.

Melanie and her partner Damien were outstanding from start to finish. Lovely people and very knowledgeable Our Bonnie is a reactive border collie and can be quite hard work but Damien made us feel extremely comfortable to leave her in his hands. 10/10

Ginny was looked after so well and both Melanie and Damien were so friendly and helpful. Ginny had a great holiday (so did I!). I would definitely use them again if I needed to board Ginny. Thanks so much to them both
Really good would have my dog staying again lovely people

Kalli who is a wee nervous dog had a great stay with a lovely couple. I would highly recommend them and will if available be happy to leave Kalli again.
