“We are so lucky to have found Kathy on Rover, we have an anxious Golden Retriever who we have never left with anyone other than family. Due to a family wedding we needed someone to have Cooper for a couple of days. Kathy was so kind and patient, she made us and Cooper feel relaxed and confident. We would have no hesitation in leaving Cooper with Kathy in the future.”


“This is the second visit for Jessie to Katherine and family. Katherine has sent us lots of photos of what she has been upto during her holiday. Jessie has had an amazing time with lots of attention and walks.Would highly recommend.”


“Carolyn is an excellent sitter! She was great with my dog, taking her for lots of walks, providing photo updates and being very flexible with timings. Highly recommended!!”


“Ellie was fantastic to deal with - we were visiting the area for a wedding and had some commitments to work around, but Ellie was really flexible. She also sent through updates and photos during Bonnie's stay which was appreciated! Bonnie seemed to have lots of fun with Ellie and her family. Thanks for all your help!”


“First stay for our dog with Liz and Peter and it could not have gone better. They looked after him so well, kept to his routine and took him for lots of walks. He could not have been better cared for. Thank you so much, so lovely to have someone we can trust to look after him when needed”


“I am so happy to have met Chelsea and have her looking after Ruby. We had lots of reassurance from Chelsea on how Ruby was doing and this helped me to relax on our short trip away. Ruby must have had a busy time as she slept when we got home. Thanks Chelsea, I’m sure we will be asking you to look after Ruby again xxx”


“This was our second booking with Andreia and her family and we cannot recommend her enough. The boys love going there as they are loved and treated like family. 5 stars!”


“We had our first visit with Elizabeth this past weekend. Elizabeth was very accommodating with our last minute scheduling needs. She was friendly and welcoming. I felt 100% comfortable leaving our dog with her. She kept us updated throughout our journey, and we came back to a very happy dog. I highly recommend Liz and will be using her services again!”



“Zena was amazing with our two rescue dogs. She was incredibly thorough with the drop off and hand over which ensured us that they were in safe hands. We got daily photos and we can’t believe how much fun their days were filled with. From agility training, pup cups and beach walks they were throughly spoiled and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. Our dogs are polar opposite in personality and Zena understood this and was able help them feel comfortable and stimulated. She even cared after one of our dogs ferrying them back and forwards to the vets when they had a paw issue during their stay. The dogs were completely at ease when we picked them up and were not desperate to leave as they have been with others in the past. Would wholeheartedly recommend and we will use again.”


“I had been let down last minute by my usual sitter and was introduced to Rover app. Scott responded quickly with offer to care for Reggie the weekend before Christmas. I was quite anxious but Scott and family are very calm and relaxed. Reggie seemed happy to be there and Scott sent me photos which were very reassuring. Reggie was very calm and happy on his return home and I can only explain his behaviour as having had a stress free and enjoyable time with Scott.”



“Having found Sarah on Dog buddy we had a trial night sleepover and this went very well. It’s always daunting leaving your fur baby with strangers but Sarah was amazing and very welcoming and i was kept updated with lovely picture posts on the whole stay. All of our dogs needs were taken care of and I have one happy hound returning home, he had a wonderful stay. Thanks to Sarah x”


“Adam and his partner Wendy looked after my dog Mia for 2 weeks. Mia has always had a nervous temperament and has struggled bonding with other dogs and people. While I was away, they kept me up to date with how she was and worked magic on her. I didn't expect to come back and find her wanting to play with other dogs and saying hi to other people. Would highly recommend this lovely couple if you want peace of mind that your baby is taken care of.”


“Lauren looked after my elderly Labrador for a week whilst we were away. We were so happy with his level of care and enjoyed being kept in touch with photos and emails. Lauren has a lovely home with a beautiful garden which is perfect for dogs. I’m sure we will be in contact again soon for his next stay!”


“Andrea took such good care of our Pip. We really appreciated the updates during the day and he seemed really happy (even reluctant to leave!) when he was dropped off. Thank you so much! We wouldn't hesitate to leave him with Andrea in future.”


About: A kind and loving pet holiday home with woods, river, beach and park walks all on our doorstep. All pets treated like one of our own. I work part time and have plenty of spare time. I enjoy walking and all good walks are improved with the company of a dog. I have a back entrance leading to a small garden area with grass and a patio, French doors that open into the garden room where the dogs sleep.

“We could not have asked for someone better to have looked after Chewie whilst we were away! She was clearly loved and so very well looked after - loads of walks to her favourite place (the beach) and lots of cuddles :) Cheryl is now our 1st port of call any time we go away as we will enjoy our holiday even more knowing how well looked after Chewie is ❤️”


“Huge thankyou to Joanna for looking after our dog Monty whilst we were away for two weeks this month. It was clear from our pre stay visit the calming and nurturing environment which Joanna offers. Throughout Monty’s stay, we received regular updates by text and WhatsApp photos. We feel that Monty thoroughly enjoyed his home from home with Joanna and her lovely dog Minnie. Thankyou Joanna for all your help and flexibility when our flights home were delayed by 9.5 hours. We would without question recommend Joanna to care for friends pets.”


“Jenny looked after Reggie for a few days while we were away. It was his first visit so Jenny asked that Reggie have a trial sleepover beforehand. That went very well and so did the longer stay after. Jenny was prompt in response to messages. Jennys home is very clean, calm and quiet. She has a spacious layout in lounge and kitchen and a very secure garden. Jenny had ensured that the house was kept cool during the heatwave. Jenny considered Reggies needs and whether he was suitable for multiple dog sitting. Jenny let me know which dogs were staying with her and they were all dogs that got on well together. I had regular photos and updates throughout his stay. Reggie was taken on suitable walks and sea swimming which I had told Jenny he loved. Reggie was pleased to return to Jenny after the initial sleepover and when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy and there were no indications that he had been stressed at all. I would even go so far as calling Jenny the dog whisperer as she has a very quiet, calm and friendly demeanour that controls the dog without shouting or over stimulating. Will definitely ask Jenny for any further sits.”


“Megan and Brad were fantastic with Ozzy, he is a big old english sheepdog pup, and it’s the 1st time us clingy dog parents have left him! they kept me updated ensuring we had a great time away with nothing to worry about and Ozzy came back exhausted! Thank you so much”

“My beautiful dog Cooper has been staying with Sam for over two years now whenever I go on holiday, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better to look after him. From the moment I drop him off, I know he’s not just safe but truly loved. Cooper always gets such a wonderful variety of walks — from sandy beaches to peaceful woodland near Sam’s home — and he comes back happy and content every time. Knowing he’s so well cared for means I can completely relax and enjoy my holiday without a single worry. I’m so grateful to Sam for giving Cooper a second home whenever I’m away.”
