“First time leaving our little girl Bonnie with Charlotte her family and their gorgeous retriever Lola and she looks like she thoroughly enjoyed her stay. Had lots of updates videos and photos which was so nice to know she was clearly not missing us 😆 she had lots of walks and lots of playtime and lovely to see. Would certainly recommend Charlotte to anyone wanting to leave their dog with them and we will definitely be using Charlotte again”
“Rocky had the best day with Jennifer. He was very well looked after and he kept on running back to her when I picked him up, which is unlike him as he can take a long time to get used to someone. She kept me updated the whole day with photos and videos, which was lovely.”
“Kevin & Natalie are brilliant, Mylo always enjoys his time there. We get updates during his stay and even helpful behavioural / walking tips 🙂”
“Just perfect! I could not have wished for better care for my Lola (cocker spaniel). From the first moment of the meet & greet, Lola felt right at home. Caitlin (and Mum, Fiona) looked after Lola so well - all her needs were met plus lots of love and cuddles. I had complete peace of mind knowing I had left her with a very loving and kind family. I was kept updated throughout and when I went to collect Lola she was chilled and happy and I think she would have liked to stay for longer ... next time 🤗”

“I was extremely anxious about leaving our 5 month old Dutch shepherd Ronni with anyone whilst we were on holiday. I think it was fate that whilst scrolling through profiles I noticed Thomas’s picture with their Dutch shepherd Buzz! When meeting for a walk with Ronni and Buzz I could see how well looked after Ronni would be and felt so at ease leaving her knowing she would be with such a caring and knowledgeable sitter. We had regular updates and when collecting her we could see how cared and well looked after she had been. Thank you to Thomas and his family for taking such good care of our Ronni. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Scout continues to come home a happy boy after spending time with Sheila and her family. He's well looked after and will certainly be booking again.”
“I can't express how happy we are of leaving Anakin with Stephanie. Anakin enjoys being with her and her husband, they are a lovely couple and Anakin's tail says it all when he sees them. Plenty of photos, frequent communication, loving care, the peace of mind that we value. They have also been flexible and kind when we've needed it. I totally recommend her”

“I would highly recommend Tori & Adam to look after your pooch, it was clear to see from the first meeting they are animal lovers & I felt so at ease leaving our dog Rupert with the both of them for 2 nights whilst we celebrated our wedding, they went above & beyond, last minute I asked if they wouldn’t mind bringing Rupert to us on our wedding just for 15 mins so we could get some pics with him & Tori was more than happy to help, we are forever grateful & will 100% use Tori & Adam again in the future, as we could see how happy & comfortable Rupert was around them even upon picking him up, thank you both again! 😊”
“Kirsty boarded our Hungarian Visna for two weeks whilst we were on our summer holiday. We had regular updates with photos and videos which is very reassuring when you’re so far away. We could see that she had settled as she does have separation anxiety, having fun with Ruby and other dogs being boarded. We would highly recommend Kirsty and will book again. Thanks Kirsty for taking care of our Nala xx”

“This is the second time I have used Laura’s services and as always, Laura goes above and beyond to make sure both of my dogs are treated like royalty. She is so professional and provides many updates and pictures about how your furry babies are doing whilst you are away. They went on long walks everyday and I could tell by the photo updates that they were given endless love and snuggles. I really cannot recommend Laura enough and will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thankyou, you are amazing!”
