“Alfie our cockerpoo just loves his holidays with Catherine. He loves his cuddles & long walks & knowing that Catherine keeps us updated daily on how he is behaving! Thank you Catherine already booked him in again 😁🥰”


“Very friendly couple and attentive to my pet who can be challenging. Sarah sent me loads of photos and updates about my dog which was reassuring. Would definitely book again!”


“Thank you - just picked Poppy up and she’s a happy girl, clearly been well looked after. Great communication about booking and sent me updates to let me know she was settled. My only hesitation in recommending is that they are already getting booked up!!!”


“I was a little bit nervous about leaving my boy for the first time, but Lauren put my mind at ease straight away and made sure she knew all about Bugsy and his care! He settled in immediately, was snuggled and cared for like he was her own and I got plenty of updates. He came home a very happy little boy, and I’m sure he can’t wait to spend a night at Lauren’s again.”


“Gus and Nicky are absolutely amazing. Albert doesn't settle anywhere we take him and struggles with separation anxiety as well are both home all the time but he's really excited to be dropped off and is not in any rush to come home when we pick him up. We are so relieved that we have found someone who truly loves what they are doing, offers a super friendly home and are such genuine and caring people. Trip is absolutely amazing with Albert and they play, sleep, walk and cuddle so well together. I would never consider taking Albert anywhere else. We have definitely found Albert's home from home holiday home. Thank you so much. See you soon. 🐶🩵”


“Superb, Five star plus. Kat understood that Islay our Welsh Springer was getting on and would find separation from us difficult. Kat absolutely put our mind to rest with her caring manner from the first minute we met. Kat let us tss as ke a look round her home and especially the garden which was very secure. During our time away Kat supplied a few photo which was very much appreciated. On pickup Islay was happy that I’m not sure she wanted to leave. We would have ni issues with booking Kat again.”


“Reece has been really accommodating for Zeus who has come back very happy! I’m very grateful he was able to take my Zeus on at such short notice and there wasn’t anything too difficult when it came to understanding Zeus’ needs. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed receiving lovely photos of him so often with constant updates as it isn’t something I’ve received often when using a sitter! I’ll definitely use Reece’s services again :)”


About: 5 years experience with dogs, only small to medium dogs. I do daily walks, pet care, washing and grooming. Always enjoy going to different places and some dogs get bored, beach walks, park walks and country tails. I live in Lytham st Anne’s, i have a semi detached bungalow with space for pets to walk around and a nice garden with a park just opposite our home. Boarding gates in the back garden. Driveway for parking so our pets are safe and secure. Playtime in the garden, play ball and fetch and in the home.

“This is Tia's second stay and couldn't have been happier. Guys took her out for a different walk almost every day and it seems she's done more sightseeing than us on our holiday.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. Caring for puppies including training them and recently taking care of senior dogs. I’m used to anxious dogs aswell. I do have a 9 year old son but he’s been used to us having dogs and looking after other peoples dogs I do work full time but this can be from home and have spare time at the weekends to care for dogs to fit in with your schedule I would care for your pet at my home which has a fenced secure garden. I will always follow your lead in terms of what your dog is used to. I would keep to their same routine

“Fabulous dog sitter! Chester was well looked after and happy in Gills care. So glad we found her.”


About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, my family always had a dog in the house. I would always help to feed or bathe and occasionally help on the vet visits. No job is too big or too small when it comes to caring for your pet or someone else's. I would treat all dogs as if they were my own as I know from personal experience that my dogs mean so much to me as they are my fur babies!! I'm currently a stay at home Mum, so I have plenty of free time to go on lots of long dog walks or just chill in the park. Occasionally, we may even meet up with some furry friends in the park or chase away the squirrels. Whichever the dog prefers! My 2 dogs are my fur babies and my absolute world, other than my daughter they are the most important things in my life. It's also important to build that trust and bond with other people's pets in order to provide a safe and calm environment for all, because a calm dog is a happy dog.

“We sent our dog Gus to Jessie for a one night stay. As any dog owner would agree this is highly anxiety inducing, luckily Jessie made sure that all of our worries were put to rest! Jessie sent us regular photo/video updates of Gus during his stay and made sure to make the transition from our home to hers as seamless as possible. We will definitely be using Jessie in the future for any nights away/holidays and highly recommend you consider Jessie as a pet sitter if you ever need one!”


“We left Buster with Laura for the first time, he was extremely well looked after and enjoyed his stay. We received regular updates and photos of how he was getting on so had no worries while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with Laura again.”


“Ana stayed with Claire for a week and had an amazing time. Couldn't have had a better dog sitter. She came back to us happy, well excerised and calm. Ana had a lovely time playing with thier dog Baa Baa so had good company the whole time. If you need a dog sitter these guys are fantastic and it will be like your dog comes back from a holiday.”


About: I have had 2 very different dogs. One a puppy and also a rescue dog. The latter had numerous health conditions and behavioural issues but with care and attention she enjoyed a happy life. I am a carer at present so I have quite a lot of free time. I wake early so don't mind walking dogs at this time. I am happy to dog sit/play/toilet or have a dog overnight. I have quite a large fenced garden for your dog to explore. There are no other pets in the home apart from a guinea pig. I am happy to continue with practices already in place.

“Graham is a lovely friendly guy Communication with Graham via Rover was great and you always had a speedy reply We had a change of plan at the very last minute which Graham worked around Videos and texts were sent through regarding Gus and he kept us upto date which was reassuring and Gus really bonded with him We would highly recommend Graham and we’d definitely use his service again”

“This is the first time I have had to leave my Peanut and was a bit wary on getting someone he was not used to, to walk him. Sharnie assures me every step of the way that he was in safe hands and I couldn't have been happier. He was very smiley in the pictures and it looked like they had so much fun on their walk. Already scheduled a few walks over the next few weeks. Couldn't have asked for a more reliable and lovely person.”
