Roland was a perfect sitter for Peggy . We felt she was in very safe hands and she seemed really to enjoy his company.

House Sitting • Dec 20, 2025

Roland was superb with my 9-month-old puppy! I was initially quite nervous as I’d never left him before, but from the moment I met Roland, I felt completely at ease. He’s calm, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. He looked after my puppy as if he were his own, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, regular updates, and the sense that everything had been handled with real care and attention. You can tell Roland has a natural way with dogs — especially young, energetic ones. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and all-round brilliant dog sitter. Thank you, Roland — I’ll definitely be booking you again! 🐾✨

I think that all I can say about Roland is that he must be some kind of dog whisperer. We have a 3 year old Labrador, Hardy, who is really a big softy but also a bit delicate. We have never before managed to successfully leave him in someone else's care but right from the moment Roland first met Hardy he put him completely at ease. When we came to pick Hardy up he was a relaxed, chilled and happy dog, my wife and I were amazed. We have already rebooked with Roland and are really grateful to have found him.

Moka had a great time staying with Roland for a few nights. She was relaxed and seemed content during her stay. Roland was welcoming and communications excellent beforehand and throughout the booking - we received photos and updates which put our minds at ease. We have already booked for Moka to stay with Roland again. Happy to recommend.
