Dog Walking • Jun 02, 2026

Once again, Mikey delivered! After taking our greyhound for a walk at lunchtime today where they got caught in a downpour, Mikey towelled Sully dry so he was comfortable as he settled down for his afternoon snooze (the dog, not Mikey!).

House Sitting • May 26, 2026

We were reluctant to use kennels for Minnie ,our lively 20 mth old Labrador, when asked to attend a family wedding in Spain so we decided try pet sitting and thank goodness we found Mikey who is exceedingly pleasant and an exceptional pet sitter. Minnie warmed to him from the start and clearly enjoyed his company and the great walks while we were away for 5 days . Mikey forwarded regular photos and details of her exercise which was very reassuring. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mikey to care for your dog and home as he is reliable , responsible , trustworthy and has become Minnie’s special friend , so we look forward to using his services again. Thanks Mikey.

House Sitting • May 21, 2026

Mikey's first sitting with our 12 month old puppy went brilliantly. Mikey was punctual, followed all instructions diligently and was very attentive to our dogs needs who is in her first season and somewhat needy and clingy. Mikey left our home spic and span too, you couldn't ask for a better service, even sharing pictures of Siena enjoying her walkies and post walk naps and cuddles!

Dog Walking • Apr 22, 2026

I can thoroughly recommend Michael as a dog walker. I was worried that our greyhound wouldn't go on a walk with someone he had only been introduced to once but he happily went with Mikey - a measure of his affinity and confidence with dogs. He's reliable and friendly and I couldn't ask for a better experience. I absolutely trust Michael with my dog.

Dog Walking • Mar 06, 2026

Mikey was punctual, very pleasant and happy to chat about his experience with dogs. He accompanied my husband on a walk with Sully so hubby could brief him on Sully's traits and habits and also to see if Sully took to him. All went smoothly and I'm now feeling happy that we've sourced a great dog walker for those times when we are unable to do it. Thank you so much, Mikey!

Boarding • Feb 12, 2025

It was the first time leaving my husky puppy Roscoe with a pet sitter. Jas and Mikey were phenomenal and took very good care of my little boy. They sent me daily pictures, and kept me up to date with everything they got up too! He was well exercised, stimulated and cared for. Roscoe loved his stay so much, he can't wait to come back to see Jas and Mikey again!! :)
