“Parker seemed to have a lovely time with Angela. She followed all our instructions and he settled in really well. He had lots of walks and food and cuddles and we’d definitely be happy to use them again.”
“It was the first time I have used Rover as an alternative to putting my dog Sassy in kennels. I am pleased to say that I made the right choice. Helen kept me updated with regular comments and pictures of Sassy which was much appreciated. Sassy was obviously happy with Helen and I would highly recommend her services to other pet owners.”
“Used Mollie for the first time at the weekend and our dog Sadie was welcomed and made to feel at home straight away. I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thank you for looking after our precious pooch.”
“Our dog Braxton had a night stay with Cora and loved it, settled well and enjoyed the walks out down the river etc with Finn, owners dog, very pleased he was so well looked after would recommend and have Braxton stay again in the future thankyou ☺️”
“Lexie what’s a great Sitter for our dog Parker. She offered to come and meet him beforehand so she could get to know him and his needs. She sent photos while we were away and he seemed very happy and comfortable there. Would use again.”
“It was the first time for Reggie being away from home and he absolutely loved his time spent with Savannah and Sarge. Communication was great. The photos were amazing! Would highly recommend Savannah and Sarge.”
“Lilly absolutely loved her stay with Vicky. She took wonderful care of her and we felt really reassured that she was in safe, loving hands the whole time. Loved the wee photo update which made us smile!”
“Fantastic sitter and such a lovely person. Booking for mine and my mums dog, my mum was quite nervous leaving her senior dog for a few nights but can't believe how settled she was. Both of our girls have come back happy and relaxed”
“We are so thrilled to have found Alexandra, who has been happy to look after our dog Ziggy twice now! She has took the time to understand our dogs needs - what he eats, his routine, and how to handle when he cries when we leave, and so on. She has taken brilliant care of him and he’s come back calm, happy, and relaxed. Highly recommend!”
“Alan settled in beautifully and was clearly treated like one of the family. We were so grateful for the frequent updates and adorable photos. It was lovely seeing him so relaxed, happy, and off on little adventures. He received so much care and attention, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have recently started a new job and keen to kick start this account again😊 I have had dogs my whole life, starting with labradors and now border terriers. I am a young, fit individual who loves going on walks and spending time with dogs. My dog has epilepsy so I am able to manage dogs with medical conditions well. I have access to a car and can drive to any appointments🚘 My dogs are my world and I have spent lots of time and effort training them and taking care of them over the years. Please don’t hesitate to message any questions. I currently work full time through a shift schedule. However I often have spare time on my hands during days off on which I would love to go a walk or help out other dog owners. When in someone else’s home I will respect any instructions given to me. I I can bring my own dog on walks (if wanted) to keep company.
“Karina and her husband took excellent care of my dog, I had regular text, photos of how he was feeling and settling in also videos of what they were doing. When Griff (my dog) arrived with them he had a slight skin condition and Karina and her husband treated the condition so when I picked him up he was in better condition than when I left him! I don’t think he could have been in better hands☺️ I would not hesitate to recommend them and I will be rebooking again very soon.”
“My welshie had a great time with Michelle & Ronny; great updates and pics. My pup has slept since I’ve collected him - all the chasing and wrestling with Ronny (!!) who is such a lovely dog. Thank you Michelle.”
“Andrew couldn't be more welcoming of our little hound. Harley always has a great time, gets lots of fresh air and runs in the garden and fell walks - and social time with other dogs which is such an extra treat for him as an 'only dog'. Thank you Andrew for being a great friend to Harley and taking such good care of him :)”
“Donna has been an absolutely fantastic sitter for Tecwyn. I'd be back in a heartbeat with any needs. Every aspect of the process, from meeting beforehand, to the home-from-home care and love she provided, has been brilliant. Donna not only provided a lovely home and a "holiday" full of walks and activities, but was exceptionally considerate with video, photo and text updates. The dog was torn whether to leave or not! Highly recommended”
“Katy and Chris were fantastic! Ruby had such a good time while she stayed with them. She got on so well with her buddy Tiger their golden retriever. We felt very reassured throughout her stay because Katy was excellent at keeping in touch with us with pictures and updating us what they all got up to. Will definitely book again and highly recommend Katy and Chris for your furry friends :)”

Alice and Ronan were fantastic! My dog can be quite anxious with new people but they were great with keeping him occupied with treats and snuggles. I really appreciated the updates and photos from Alice. He clearly had an amazing time and was made to feel at home during his stay. Thankyou so much, I'll definitely be booking again! 🤩
