Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs since childhood, unfortunately in August 2024 we lost our beloved Staffordshire bullterrier Rita after nearly 15 years together. We are a family of 3 ( 2 year old who loves animals) and we are happy to take care your pet in our pet friendly house. Due to having a toddler at home your beloved dog must be a child friendly. We are missing walks together with a four leg companion.

Marley has an amazing over night stay with you guys! He was unsettled for first but quickly settled in and it was like a home-home setting for him! Thank you very much!

Rafal and Gosia are lovely and were very understanding of Lily's age and needs. We were initially nervous to leave her as she hadn't stayed with a sitter before but she settled in really well and almost seemed like she didn't want to come home! We were sent pictures each day which was also very reassuring. We would definitely book again if needed! ♡

Nancy has had another wonderful stay with Rafal and his lovely family, she is a very lucky pooch. I know that I can always relax when I go away because Nancy is getting the very best of care, love and attention. Everything is tailored to looking after her with patience, kindness and understanding. I don't know what I would do without them ..thank you beautiful family ❤️
