“Nadine was just brilliant keeping us updated with pictures. Our dog settled so quickly which is testament to how well she was looked after. Highly recommend and will definitely use again.”


“Graeme was very accommodating at short notice due late changes in our plans. He was quick to respond to messages on Rover, which was great, allowing us to make arrangements. We were lucky enough to be able to meet up with Graeme and Skylar at the beach on the morning of the dog sitting. It was great to see the dogs running around together looking relaxed and comfortable with each other. The dogs seemed settled when we dropped them off. Throughout the weekend Graeme sent lots of messages and photos of the dogs when they were out for their walks or snoozing on their beds at home! It was lovely to see them being so well looked after. We would definitely book Graeme again and thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dogs. Thank you Graeme”



“Kayleigh and family looked after Rufus for 3 weeks in July. They took exceptionally good care of Rufus so we were very happy and will definitely use Kayleigh again. - Plenty of walks and excercise - Nice house and garden in a nice area, so we knew Rufus would be safe and secure - They have a small dog who was a good companion for Rufus - Socialising with other dogs, which was good for Rufus - Daily updates with lots of photos gave peace of mind”


“Very friendly and welcoming, kept up to date with lots of photos and videos and we're very patient with Rolo who is very anxious with noise. Would definitely use again!”


“Thor loved his stay with Haley and made himself right at home. Haley kept me up to date the whole time with all the updates and photos of Thor making best friends with Levi! 10/10 would recommend. Already got our second booking in :))”


“Amazing sitter. Ralph always has the best time with Zhi. He is always sending me updates and letting me know how Ralph is doing throughout his stay.”


“Mollie had a fab time and was very reassuring to know that she had constant attention and company while we were wwsy Very much appreciated the updates, photos and videos.”


“I was a little anxious about leaving my 2 dachshunds with a sitter for the first time however Daisy (and Scott) are a lovely, friendly couple and they have such an obvious love of dogs. They came to the house and met my dogs and they all took to each other immediately!! She even invited me to go to her home where I was able to advise them on stairs and going out in the garden etc. Daisy asked questions about Henry and Bean's routines and quirks and listened intently when I explained their love of blankies and their various idiosyncrasies, as she wanted to make sure that she was giving them a home from home experience. It certainly put my mind at ease! Also, while I was away, she sent me lots of photos, videos and updates and also arranged for the doggos to go on a walk with a fellow dachshund! She was kind enough to collect them from my home (with a vast amount of their 'necessities') and dropped them back home when I got back too. Doggies are home very happy (and tired) and obviously have enjoyed their new adventure. I feel fortunate to have found Daisy and Scott and I feel confident leaving Henry and Bean with them in the future knowing that they will get the love, care and attention they have at home. Thanks guys X”


“Ana was amazing! She sent me so many updates and took the best care of my girl. Even though it was a short stay, she even took Mara for a long walk and sufficiently tired her out! I could tell that my dog was completely happy and totally chilled out with Ana. Absolutely would book again and highly recommend to others!”


“Euri watched Alfie over the weekend. Euri kept me updated on him by messaging and sending photo's. It was good to have a home sitter rather than kennels. I will use again. Thankyou Euri!”


“Really friendly, regular updates and I felt very comfortable with Bruno being with Vilte. Couldn’t ask for anything more.”


About: Hello, my name is Camilo and I'll be taking care of your pup :) I currently have a well trained beagle who has been part of my life for the past three years. He is obedient, cheerful and enjoys his daily walks with me, come rain or shine. I have also grown up with a family poodle for seven years, so I'm very familiar with different breeds and their individual personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. I always ensure feeding times, walks and play are consistent and suited to each dog’s temperament and energy levels. I believe in positive reinforcement, plenty of attention and creating a calm, safe environment where your dog can feel happy and secure while you are away. You can expect regular updates and photos, so you know exactly how your dog is doing during their time here. I am reliable, attentive and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, responsible and committed to your dog’s wellbeing, I would be delighted to help. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions. Looking for forward to meeting you and your dog 🐕🐕🐕 I'm a WFH PhD student, and I'm currently able of taking care of your dog 24 hours at home if needed, so there wouldn't be any issues with timing or scheduling. I have a well behaved neutered Beagle who's used to share his toys and his humans. I have a fenced garden as well to ensure the dogs can go out whenever is needed. However, I also live very close to parks, ensuring that your dog will always have contact with green areas to socialise with other dogs

About: I have had dogs since a very young age and have loved growing up in their presence, they truly are part of a family. While working full time I do not feel able to have a dog of my own and miss the company. I enjoy going for walks and a dog gives a walk that bit more purpose (and gives me company!) I have experience looking after puppies and elderly dogs. I work full time so weekdays are tricky but I am available evenings, and occasional days where I can arrange to work from home (when pre arranged). However weekends and evenings are free. I will work with you and your pup to meet their needs, whether they need to remain on leads, go on quiet walks away from other dogs/ people. Happy for the pup to roam the flat as if it was their home. However, also happy to keep to routines if you prefer them to stay off sofas and to be crate trained. I will be guided by you.

About: I have taken care of my family dog for my whole life and other peoples cats and dogs I love spending time with animals I grew up on a far and I am used to taking care of animals. I have taken care of younger and older dogs. I am currently on summer break from university and I will have plenty of time to play with and exercise your pets. I am available from 2:30pm. I have no pets and live with my sister so there is plenty of attention to go round for you pet.i love being outside so your your pet will get plenty of exercise.

“I don't think I even have the words to express how brilliant Kathleen was! As the guardian of a reactive rescue dog I was nervous to leave her with anyone having never done so before. Kathleen was so understanding of that and made me feel so at ease with her compassion and confidence. She was happy to meet me and shiloh prior to the booking to ensure the vibes were right and they were so right!! She communicated so well both before and during the booking which I was so grateful for. She happily recieved all the information i provided about shiloh and followed my instructions including medications and had no issues with caring for her despite her reactivity. Shiloh looked so happy in all the photos she sent me and she was so relaxed when I picked her up it was amazing! Kathleen clearly has such a lovely way with animals and honestly I'd never want anyone else to look after shiloh for me now! I'm loathe to recommend her as I want to keep her for myself haha! But honestly she is so wonderful, reliable and trustworthy I am so grateful I found her - you couldn't do any better for you pets!”

Camilo M.
“What I like most about Camilo is that he treats dogs like family. We have a mixed-breed dog who adores him, and we feel at ease when she’s with him. She's very nervous and didn’t trust anyone. From the very first day, he earned her affection right away. Now she jumps with excitement when she sees him arrive and always comes back happy, exercised, and even calmer at home.”


Eilidh M.
“Eilidh looked after and walked my dog Milo, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Milo absolutely loved spending time with her – he was always excited to see her and came back from walks happy and well-exercised. Eilidh was reliable, friendly, and clearly has a natural way with animals. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Milo was in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”
