Dog Boarding in Bute

“This was our first time using Rover intact first time leaving Toby with anyone other than family so I will be honest I was a little anxious. I need not have worried we absolutely hit the jackpot with Steven. Toby had the best time, he was extremely well looked after and had obviously had lots of fun . Steven put me at ease by sending updates along with some photos of Toby . 5 star service.”

“Leaving Baxter with Donald was so easy for us. He made us feel really comfortable and it’s obvious how much he cares for all the dogs. Hope we will manage to book him again .”

“Claire was absolutely wonderful. This was the first time we left Winston with someone we didn’t know and Claire put us all at ease immediately. Winston had a great time with her and she kept us up to date on their adventures. Highly recommend!”

“Thanks so much to Douglas and Vicky for taking care of Alba and giving her all the love and attention we would have done if she was at home. They kept us up to date with plenty of messages and pictures. Gave her some medicine that she only got prescribed the day we dropped her off. Couldn't have aksed for better and would definitely recommend and use them again if needs be.”

“Ashleigh was absolutely tremendous with my pup. This is her second time with a sitter so naturally I’m a little more nervous but Ashleigh completely put my mind to ease with regular pupdates during the day! Can also tell the pup had a fabulous time and was so tell taken care of. Highly recommend 😊”

“Contacted Anne Marie for home boarding for our 10 year old lhasa apso for our recent trip. A lovely lady who was enthusiastic, caring and affectionate towards our wee dog. She kept us advised of his progress during the 2 weeks we were away, as this was the first time we had left him with someone we didn't know. When we came back he was very happy to see us and we knew that she had cared for him ever so well. I am happy to recommend Anne Marie to anyone who needs their dog looked after.”

“Our wee boy went to stay with Kirsty for a night while we attended a wedding. She offered a meet and greet before hand which went really well and we knew he would be well looked after. She sent us regular pictures and he was clearly having a fantastic time with his new friends! He chewed through his lead and she replaced it which was very kind but absolutely not needed! He had another one with him and he is a chewy pup so we would have happily replaced it. We will definitely use Kirsty again.”

“It’s the first time Alfie has been away from home, so asking someone to board him for 5 nights was a big decision which ultimately allowed us to go to a family wedding abroad. Alfie is a 7 month labradoodle pup who had an injury to his leg and was on a strict recovery plan. I met with Caroline pre boarding and I could tell she was calm, knowledgeable and really caring. She was keen to understand Alfie's condition to make sure his recovery plan was adhered to. Caroline made Alfie feel at home as soon as we dropped him off. I was a nervous wreck leaving Alfie, however Caroline reassured me through out every day with photos and texts on how Alfie's day was going, he was very much on holiday like us, he had a great time? Caroline was very accommodating with Alfie's drop off and pick up times. Thank you from the bottom of out hearts you made our trip away so much easier. Would highly recommend and will 100% use her service again.”

“Ching was very good at communicating regular updates including photos and honest information. My dog was treated well and went on trips to the beach and park. I was worried as my dog is quite shy but Ching was very reassuring. She was upfront when my dog was being a little unsure, not just telling my dog was absolutely fine. But she also showed me in photos that my dog was happy and feeling more confident with her. It was the first time I've ever left my dog with someone else and I'm so glad I used Ching. I'll definitely go straight to Ching again.”

“Heather welcomed Ness into her home and meet all her needs. Ness had a big garden to play ball and countryside close by for walks. Thank you to Heather and her family for making this first stay first class.”

“Very caring person who looked after our dog Bonnie like one of her family. From the pictures I have seen I know my dog really enjoyed the stay over she had. I would thoroughly recommend Laura to anyone who wants there dog looked after like one of the family. I will be using her again in the future”

Michael C.

“Pip had a fantastic 10 day stay with Harry and his family. Great communication throughout and photos of Pip out on lovely country walks. We were told everyone who met Pip thought she was lovely and well behaved! We'd happily recommend Harry and would be very happy to use his services again. Thank you!”

John M.

“Absolutely awesome doggy sitters. Our furry daughter had a good time whilst she was staying round, which was evident from the regular photo updates and comments. We will be letting her stay again in the future because she is well looked after and cared for. Thank you very much.”

“Huge thank you to Jennifer and family for their care and attention of our Labrador. Collected him after 2 nights and he was happy and relaxed and settling back home very quickly. I would definitely approach Jennifer for future stays, with the peace of mind that our dogs is having a lovely holiday too.”

“Dave absolutely loves his stays with Michaela and Ryan. It’s like a home from home. They are so warm and welcoming. This is the second time he has stayed and I’m sure it won’t be his last. Thanks again x”

About: Home Away from Home: Safe, Loving Care for Your Dog Pet care experience I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets.. Pet Care Experience I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me over the years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. Since adopting my dog Riley in 2017, I’ve gained hands-on experience with everything from daily care routines to recognizing behavior changes and responding with patience and understanding. What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my calm, attentive nature. I’ve worked with puppies, high-energy breeds, and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether your pup needs a playful companion or a quiet space to relax, I provide a safe, loving environment tailored to their needs. I work part-time from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your pup the time, attention, and care they need to feel safe and loved. I have a fully fenced garden where pups can safely play, explore, and relax under supervision—perfect for fresh air, exercise, and tail wags! I make sure the pups get all the love and attention under my care.

“Jessica was great! It was the first time we booked a stay for our dog Zuzu on Rover and he loved his holiday. Jess gave us updates with pictures all the time. We could see how well he was taken care of, going out for walks, getting all the cuddles and attention from the whole family. He had no sign of his usual separtion anxiety and just looked like he had a very good time during his ten days stay! Thanks Jessica :)”

About: I have only babysat a few dogs, one family I have took care of their dog a lot of times, but i would love to gain more experience. I am currently working part time, so I have time to care for pets especially in mornings or evenings. Id babysitting for a few nights it would be preferable if dogs are okay home alone for a few hours but it’s flexible if not. I have a fenced garden, dogs are allowed on my bed but not on furniture. I also have a cat in my home however he stays in the upstairs of my home and would have minimal or no contact with the dogs.
