This is the second time we have used Shirley to look after our dog(s). Laika has been before and this was Halley’s first time. Laika was happy to run back in and she felt really comfortable. Halley, in true spaniel fashion was happy to make herself at home. Shirley updated us everyday and her communication was great. We are already booked again for later in the year - That’s how much I’d recommend her

Luna has stayed multiple times with Shirley now. As soon as she realises where we’re going she drags me to her house. I’m always sent lots of pictures and updates daily. Would definitely recommend ❤️

Shirley was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Elmo! She took such great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay, sending us plenty of lovely pictures which really put our minds at ease. It was so nice to see how happy and settled Elmo was. We could tell he was having a great time, and that made us happy too! 😊 We really appreciated Shirley’s care, communication and kindness. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and would happily have her look after Elmo again. Thank you so much, Shirley! 🐾❤️
