Dog Boarding in Barking

“Marcela has been amazing with my senior dog Dylan! They had long walks in the park. She gave him all his medications very carefully and updated me every day with lovely photos.”

“Juno had a fantastic time with Anke! She was incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and accommodating, and her lovely family made Juno feel right at home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily book with her again. Highly recommended!”

“Johanna was an exceptional cat sitter—I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially since it was the first time I’d ever left my cat. She sent regular updates and photos, which really reassured me and showed how relaxed and comfortable my cat was in her care. It’s clear he bonded with her and had a wonderful few days—it felt like a mini holiday for him. Johanna communicated clearly throughout, followed his usual feeding routine, and kept an eye on his litter habits. I’ll definitely be booking with Johanna again whenever I need a sitter.”

About: I began sitting dogs when I rescued my own, Polly, in a small Colombian town when she was just three months old. She’s now four years old, calm, well-trained, and incredibly friendly with both people and other dogs. In my family, dogs are part of everyday life—my sisters have a schnauzer, a husky, and a border collie, my brother has a cocker spaniel, and my mother also has a cocker. I’ve had the joy of caring for each of them at different times, and they all get along beautifully with Polly. Because Polly is so gentle, she naturally helps other dogs settle in, especially those with separation anxiety. Beyond my family, I’ve also looked after my partner’s sister’s dogs—a Boston terrier and a large 40 kg mixed breed—and several dogs from the friendly pet community I’ve joined since moving to the UK a year ago. One of Polly’s closest friends here is a nine-year-old Boston terrier, who I’ve cared for during longer stays of 10 and 12 days. No matter the breed, size, or personality, I adapt to their needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Since completing my master’s degree, I work remotely from home, which means I can give dogs full-time attention. My days are already built around Polly’s care—we go for three walks daily, including time for play, sniffing, and exploring new routes. Having this routine makes it easy to welcome other dogs into our schedule without disrupting their needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can stick to your dog’s specific feeding times, walk schedules, and play sessions. I also prepare Polly’s BARF meals every two weeks, so I’m used to following precise feeding instructions, whether for raw diets, cooked meals, or kibble. With my flexible hours, I can accommodate early morning drop-offs, late pick-ups, or special routines, making your pet’s time with me stress-free for both you and them. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly studio flat with Polly. Although it’s a studio, it has plenty of room for dogs to move around, and a large, secure, fully fenced balcony where they can enjoy fresh air, sunshine, and people-watching. Polly loves lying out there, and visiting dogs often join her for a peaceful rest. When caring for dogs in my home, I make sure the space is safe, tidy, and free from hazards. I respect each owner’s preferences for feeding, exercise, and sleeping arrangements, and I’m attentive to special needs such as medication or anxiety management. I treat every dog as if they were my own—ensuring they feel secure, happy, and loved from the moment they arrive until the moment they go home.

“Clare and Ness looked after our dog very well. They provided some lovely updates and Rain seemed very relaxed and happy. Dog friendly home with outdoor space. They were very flexible about timings and willing to meet any specific requests.”

“Our 2 year old Rotty spent 2 nights with Chris and Chiara for the first time. Chris came to visit him in advance of the boarding and also agreed to meet a few days before his stay. Chris communicated promptly and shared photos and provided updates throughout Diesel’s boarding. When we collected Diesel he was very happy and didn’t want to leave Chris. This was very reassuring for us. We will definitely use Chris and Chiara again. Thanks guys for looking after Diesel.”

“We were incredibly impressed with the communication we received when checking in on how our dog was getting on. The photos we received from Ronnie truly put our minds at ease — it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. Ronnie is a wonderful dog sitter with a beautiful family, and we felt completely reassured throughout. We wholeheartedly recommend Ronnie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter — we’ll definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Upasna is one of the best pet sitters we have ever met. We are extremely happy we chose her to take care of our beagle dog Zirnis. She immediately connected with him and it was clear they were going to have a great time together at Upasna's home. She has a lot of experience dealing with any kind of dog and we were impressed by her superior knowledge of dog care. She sent us many pictures and videos and provided us with constant updates in terms of what was Zirnis doing, where they went, and what is his mood. We really appreciate this great communication. She took him out multiple times a day, went for long walks, and made sure he had enough entertainment during the day. Upasna lives in a spacious apartment, so there is plenty of space for the dog. Also, her husband is a very nice person, he loves dogs and helps her take care of them. Once we came to collect Zirnis from Upasna's home, it was obvious he already loved them both and wanted to stay for longer. I would certainly book her again and highly recommend Upasna's service.”

“Highly recommend!! I was away for 3 weeks and Precious looked after my dog, Jai Jai. She was absolutely amazing from start to finish, I couldn’t have asked for better care. She sent me daily updates with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that Precious really cares deeply for the animals she looks after, and Jai Jai couldn’t have been in better hands. I’m so grateful and honestly couldn’t recommend her enough!”

Alisha D.

“I think Jiale is the best dog sitter I've had for boarding my dog. She and her boyfriend took care of my dog super well. Daily updates and videos to keep my mind at ease that my doggy is happy. I can't thank you enough Jiale! Thank you for being so accommodated with us as well. I'll book you again and again for sure! 🥰🧡”

“Polina is an absolute rockstar! As a pet sitter, she's been taking care of my fur babies with such love, care, and attention to detail. Her experience with big dogs is truly impressive - she handles them with ease and confidence. The regular updates and photos she sends throughout the day are priceless - I feel like I'm right there with them! Her reliability and communication are top-notch, and I never had to worry about a thing. What really stood out was her flexibility and willingness to help at the last minute when my previous sitter cancelled. She stepped in and took my pets in without hesitation, and I'm forever grateful for that. I highly recommend Polina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and experienced pet sitter. She's truly a lifesaver, and I'm so glad I found her. Thank you, Polina, for giving me peace of mind and showering my pets with love and care. You're the best!”
