“Very pleased with Anida, she took excellent care of Dolly and kept me up to date all day! Dolly looked like she was having an absolute ball and was smiley and happy in all the photos! Would certainly use her services again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! ❤️”
“Anke and her family were excellent with Greyson!! They gave frequent updates+videos and we can tell that Greyson enjoyed his stay and was well looked after! Definitely recommend!😃😃😃”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“Henrietta was absolutely amazing with Percy. She took such good care of him and the joy and love of dogs shines through from her. I felt so reassured leaving Percy with her - she clearly devotes a lot of time and love to the dogs she looks after. She kept in touch regularly with updates and was so thoughtful and clearly cared a lot about Percy’s welfare. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. Honestly I can’t thank her enough and would happily leave Percy with her again anytime.”
“Absolutely fantastic dog boarding service! I highly recommend this sitter. They did everything I asked for and more during my time away and will definitely bring my Norbie back there when needed”
“Andrea is a fabulous sitter 🤩 She took great care of Paco and gave him loads of attention and love. Great contact and many photo/video updates throughout the day. Paco didn’t even want to come back home, he just kept looking behind and pulling to go back 🤣 We will be definitely booking another request soon 🤗”
“Heather was an amazing support. I know Ivy was in safe hands and she came back tired which means she was busy, had lots of fun and made a fuss of. Heather was easy to communicate with which makes the whole progress so easy. Thank you!”
“Thanks so so much Jessica! You took such great care of Kenzo and I really appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. He came home relaxed and happy and I can tell he’s been well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️”
About: I’m an experienced dog owner who truly understands the routines and care dogs need. What makes my service unique is the combination of exceptional outdoor space (Wanstead Flats is right on my doorstep for long walks and play), flexible working arrangements (if desired, I can take your dog to my office for company throughout the day), and a well-socialised, friendly dog who loves meeting new friends. Your dog won’t just be looked after - they’ll be genuinely engaged and enriched. Whether it’s exploring the extensive open spaces of the Flats, enjoying a calm day at the office, or having a canine companion for socialisation, I can provide a proper home-from-home experience. I’m happy to maintain any specific routines, dietary requirements, or training approaches you’ve established. I treat every dog in my care as I treat my own: with patience, attention, and plenty of affection. I work full time but have flexible arrangements. I typically work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and I’m able to take dogs to the office with me on other days if they’d enjoy the different environment and socialisation. This means your dog will have company and attention throughout the day, every day, rather than being left alone. I’m available for boarding on weekends and evenings. Your dog will be treated as part of my household. I have one friendly, well-socialised dog who’s excellent with other dogs and provides gentle companionship. My home is secure and I’m experienced in managing different dogs’ needs, whether that’s separate feeding times, crate training, or giving space to dogs who prefer their own company. I’ll always follow your instructions on walking routines, including whether your dog should be on or off lead.
“I can’t recommend Lizzy enough as a dog sitter. She looked after our 9 year old English bulldog for a weekend and couldn’t have been more helpful and reassuring. Great communication whilst making the booking, followed up with updates throughout. Would definitely book again. Fantastic”
“We left Didy with Weronika for two nights and she was absolutely fantastic at taking care of Didy. She brought Didy to parks and also they attended a dog birthday party together :)”
“Daniel and Brian took wonderful care of my fur baby. They carefully followed instructions and sent regular updates. My boy had fun hanging out with them and their pooch; and came home happy and relaxed. my boy had a little holiday, whilst i was on mine. It was reassuring to know he was in good hands and would rebook in the future.”
“Barney had the most wonderful stay with Fernando and Morné for just over a week. From the very beginning they made us feel confident that he was in safe, caring hands. They were communicative throughout the stay, sending multiple photo and video updates every day along with thoughtful written messages about how Barney was getting on, which we really appreciated. It was clear from the updates that Barney was having an absolute blast. He spent lots of time on walks and enjoyed running around their safe local dog area, enthusiastically chasing and playing with their lovely young dog Bailey. It was also very sweet to see Kiki patiently tolerating the chaos! The photos they sent were fantastic — some of the best pictures we’ve ever had of Barney — and really showed how happy and relaxed he was. Fernando and Morné were also wonderfully thoughtful and accommodating with routines, feeding, and logistics around drop-off and pick-up, which made the whole experience completely stress-free for us. It’s not easy leaving your dog for over a week, but thanks to their constant updates and the obvious care they gave Barney, we never once worried. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and feel very lucky to have found such kind, attentive sitters. Barney came home happy, tired, and clearly missing his new best friend Bailey — which probably tells you everything you need to know!”
“Dodger was very well looked after with Upansa, he was very happy to see her and came home calm and relaxed, she played with him and walked him and send lovely pics and updates throughout the day. I would happily recommend.”
“She was incredibly welcoming and kind, and I could tell right away that she genuinely loves cats. My cat felt comfortable and relaxed with her very quickly, which meant so much to me. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my cat was in such caring hands. I’m very grateful for the care and attention she gave, and I would happily trust her again in the future.”

Holly was brilliant from the very beginning. She met our dogs in the park before booking, which gave them reassurance straight away and helped them feel comfortable. She was very easy‑going, patient, and answered every question we had. Her communication was excellent — always responding quickly and keeping us updated throughout the stay with daily photos, videos, and messages. She is incredibly reliable, and our dogs came home happy, confident, and clearly very well cared for. She even took extra care of our little one who unexpectedly came into season during her stay, which we really appreciated. Holly went above and beyond by helping us unload and load all the dogs’ belongings — such a thoughtful touch. Her dog Ruby must have been a lovely influence too; our two definitely enjoyed being around her. We would absolutely recommend Holly and will definitely be returning. Thank you again for everything, Holly — you were amazing.
Jeanett has been amazing with Ivy. She looked after her for over two weeks while we were on holiday and kept us updated throughout with lots of photos and videos. It was wonderful to see Ivy having so much fun, especially playing with Jeanett’s dog, Argos, they became great friends! Jeanett took Ivy everywhere she went, and it was clear that Ivy was treated like part of the family. We felt completely at ease knowing she was so well cared for and truly felt at home. We would highly recommend Jeanett to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter, and we’ll definitely be leaving Ivy with her again very soon.
Upasna and her partner were both amazing. I’m often very nervous about leaving Luna with strangers but they did everything to help ease my mind while away. Frequent photo and video updates, multiple times a day, and very responsive to messages. Highly recommended, they were great!
I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog for 10 days. Oscar was exceptionally well cared for from start to finish. He has an eye condition that requires treatment three times a day, and she followed his medication routine perfectly, giving me complete peace of mind. She also made sure he had plenty of walks, attention, and affection every day. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him as if he were her own. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was happy and safe while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Oscar – I will definitely book with you again!🤗
Such lovely people - so understanding and flexible with Worf. He can be a very difficult puppy at times and they handled him so well. They have a dog who’s much smaller than ours and they were so chilled and accepting, even though I’m sure Worf would have been a lot for Ashford at times. Really appreciate the wonderful care - would definitely recommend Daniel, Brian and Ashford 😘
Very pleased with Anida, she took excellent care of Dolly and kept me up to date all day! Dolly looked like she was having an absolute ball and was smiley and happy in all the photos! Would certainly use her services again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! ❤️
I can barely put into words how grateful i am for the care provided by Lazhen. She was so friendly & accommodating and i immediately felt at ease, even during the booking process. She asked all the necessary questions and kept in contact with me the entire time she had Skylar during the weekend. She sent me loads of pics and gave me updates on how Skylar was doing, eating, drinking, playing and going on the walks. I’m so so happy and grateful. Skylar was well taken care of and we can’t wait to see you again.
I cannot recommend Jimmy highly enough! Leaving your beloved pet behind while you're on holiday is never easy, but from the moment we dropped our dog off, we knew they were in the best possible hands. Throughout our vacation, we received regular updates, messages, and plenty of photos, which gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. What impressed us most was the genuine love, care, and attention our dog received. It was clear that they weren't just being looked after—they were being completely pampered and treated like part of the family. Every picture showed a happy, relaxed, and content dog enjoying walks, playtime, cuddles, and all the attention they could wish for. The communication was exceptional, with timely updates that reassured us every step of the way. It was obvious that Jimmy genuinely cares about the wellbeing and happiness of every pet he looks after. In fact, I think our dog may have enjoyed their holiday more than we did! Since returning home, they've genuinely seemed to miss all the attention, affection, and fun they had during their stay. Thank you Jimmy for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member. We wouldn't hesitate to book again and would wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog boarder.
Andrea was brilliant and so lovely and caring with Crumble. He is definitely missing all the attention. Thank you for keeping him cool in the heatwave, and for sending us regular updates whilst we went away on holiday. This was the first time leaving him with a sitter and he loved it! We will he using Andrea again for sure!
Reuben stayed with Sarah and Liv for a weekend and had the best time. He was really settled there (which we could tell from the photo updates). They were very attentive with him, and enjoyed park and pub times together, also with their lovely dog Saffy. We would definitely recommend and be rebooking in the future
She took great care of Choco and kept me updated throughout his stay. She was very attentive with him and clearly cared about him a lot and genuinely wanted to help him using her dog training experience. Choco can be quite a sensitive and reactive dog outdoors and does best with very calm, low-stimulation walks and lots of decompression, so he can be a bit different from a more typical dog in that sense. Overall, she was very patient with him and it was clear she genuinely wanted to help 😊
