Hugs, walks and a happy welcome!

Pet care experience

Had a break from Rover for family reasons but now back :) I have always loved dogs and I am used to borrowing dogs from others or dog sitting when friends/family have gone on holiday. We have a cheeky young schneagle (min schnauzer x beagle) who is approximately six years old. She loves other dogs and enjoys playing around with them. This is one of the main reasons as to why we do dog buddy as well as enjoying meeting other breeds and characters.

From the moment Alby met Rachel I felt very at ease with leaving him in her care. She immediately made him feel like part of the family. Throughout the weekend she kept me updated with photos and videos of their outings. I felt very relaxed knowing Alby was being so well looked after and would recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a home from home for their fur baby.

Amazing - I can’t thank Rachel enough. I’ve never left my dog (Happy) with anyone other than family so I was very nervous. Rachel was more than happy for me to meet her first and as soon as I did, I instantly knew that Happy would be well looked after. She was taken on long walks and I had plenty of updates, pictures and videos. I really can’t thank Rachel enough, I would book her again and would 100% recommend her to others, thanks again ?

Lucky had a wonderful time at Rachel's home. She ensured he settled in well and gave him lots of attention when he was a bit homesick. Rachel kept me updated throughout Luckys stay with how he was doing, and she sent regular photos of what they got up too. Lucky was thoroughly worn out when he got home, the sign of a good stay for my active dog. He loved spending time with her dog and the other dog also boarding at the same time, and Rachel and her family kept them all entertained throughout their stay by dog walks and playing in the secure garden. I will definitely book Rachel again ☺
