Massive thank you to Sonia and Mick for looking after Arlo. He looked like he had the best time, I was worried he might not want to come home! 😂Sonia sent us lots of photos and videos and really put our minds at rest that he was well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask them to have him again, they got to know him and think he thought he was in a home from home!

Molly had a lovely week with Sonia and Mick. We were sent lots of pictures of Molly out and about, she was treated just like a member of their family. It was lovely to know Molly was so well looked after while we were away on holiday. Thank you both.

Sonia is friendly and appears very relaxed around the dogs. Sonia shared photos of them both in her home and when they were out and about. Both Pickles and Pixie came back very happy from their visit. Pixie is quite anxious and excitable and shows this by being vocal. Sonia understood this and gave her the support she needed. Very happy with the care the dogs were given.
