“We couldn't have asked for better pet sitters than Kristy and her husband!!! They followed our directions for feedings (health issue related) cuddled and took our pups on lovely walks. We were showered with pictures and videos. We will be definitely be using them in the future 😁”

“It was the first time Freddie was away from home. We met up with Paulina and her lovely dog Baron for a meet and greet, and they got on like a house on fire. Paulina immediately made us feel at ease with her calm and experienced approach. She kept us informed with messages and pictures of their lovely walks. On collection, Freddie was happy and relaxed. We will definitely contact Paulina again if we need a dog sitter. Thoroughly recommended!”

“A very kind and caring lady.i think Henry has a field day while he stayed with her.henry is a young dog and wasn’t sure if he would fit in with another home but I was so worried for him and Lynne but it is clear I need not to have given it a second thought and she sent me lovely photos of him enjoying himself out in the fields and her house playing with her grandchildren thank you Lynne”

“Missie had a wonderful stay with Alice, Will and of course the gorgeous Winston!! Regular pupdates kept me from missing her too much. She had so much fun I don’t think she wanted to leave! Can’t wait to book again x”

About: I've had my own dogs for over 20 years, and they have always been a vital part of my life. I have 15 years of experience with dog sitting and boarding, and have a great knowledge of how to handle dogs of all shapes and sizes, including senior dogs, puppies, and rescues. I'm confident with what to do in an emergency, and you can guarantee that your dogs will be loved intensely when I'm around! I love spending time playing, doing training sessions, going for short walks or just snuggling. I also have experience with a variety of other smaller pets, including caged pets, parrots, fish, reptiles and amphibians - I would be happy to arrange an extra fee to care for any other smaller pets you may have while I do housesitting or drop-ins for your dog or cat! I'm self-employed, and I can arrange my work around any pet sitting I do - when I'm with your pet, they will be my sole focus and number one priority. If I'm staying for longer than 3-4 days, I may need to arrange to nip home for an hour or so to look after my other pets - they're all reptiles/amphibians, so only need feeding twice a week! I will work with you to make sure your pet is happy, either by bringing them with me in the car, or making sure they're content being left for an hour. I work with you, the owner, in terms of safety, to determine what your pet's requirements are. I'm happy to maintain their usual day-to-day schedules regarding feeding times, play and rest, and toilet breaks. I currently have a sprained ankle that means I can't take dogs for walks longer than about 20 minutes, which is why I'm only available to sit small dogs that would be content with getting most of their exercise and stimulation by way of playing, inside or in the garden. For your peace of mind, I have a Pet First Aid Level 2 certification and an Enhanced DBS Check. I always bring a fully stocked pet-specific first aid kit with me to every booking, and also make sure to carry it with me on every walk, so I'm prepared for any event that may happen, however unlikely it may be.
“We met Emma and her dog Harry before our stay and went for a walk and then we arranged a morning stay before our overnight visit. Holly settled well and fitted in with Harry and seemed very happy. Emma kept us in contact do that we could see her progress which was brilliant . I would use Emma again .”

“Emily was excellent, great communication sending us photos and updates. She really put us at ease about leaving our dog for the first time with a sitter. We will definitely be using Emily again and lola loved her time there.”

“Thank you so much for looking after Milo and the photos and updates. I’m sure he had so much fun, he’s probably sad to be back home! Will definitely book again in the future.”

“Daisy looked like she had a great time with JiaYuan and Nana. We received lots of pictures and videos and felt very reassured that Daisy was in great hands. Would definitely recommend.”

“Emily was lovely and so kind to Dali, she definitely understands the dog world :) her two lovely pups are so cute as well and special thanks to her daugter Elizabeth for having fun time with Dali :) lovely to meet them!”

“Rey and Suki (huskies) have just spent a full day/night with Angela. Both dogs made themselves at home the moment they stepped through the door and I felt very comfortable and at ease leaving them both. We received lots of lovely photos and updates throughout the day of what they were up to. I will definitely be asking Angela to look after the dogs again in the very near future 🐾❤️🐾”

“I dropped my dog willow to Emma for the morning whilst I had to go work , willow was happy to go into the Emma’s house , smelling her way around , I left after 5 minutes, Willow & Emma had 6 hours together, they went out for a walk had cuddles , When I went back to pick up willow she said hello to me and went back to Emma which is a good sign while me and Emma sat talking willow was very comfortable later on the sofa bidding her eyes whilst being stroked by Emma , Emma was amazing she has a very kind calm and happy nature which I think willow picked up on , I would definitely leave willow with Emma again if needed , thank you Emma , love willow thank you for looking after me ❤️❤️”

“Our Pup Mila stayed with Samantha for 4 nights recently. Samantha is very warm and welcoming. Very knowledgeable about dogs with helpful advice. Attentive to Mila and all her needs. Samantha updates are amazing. A lot of videos and photos sent - which I really appreciate and enjoy receiving. Contact with Samantha was immediate. The whole process starting with a meet and greet is organised and accomodating. Mila settled well with Samantha and her lovely pack of pups. We will definitely book with Samantha again.”

“Thank you Jessica, for another week of caring so wonderfully for Kizzy. I’m sure she has really enjoyed all the lovely walks, cuddles and attention that you and your family have given her. It has given me such peace of mind, while being on holiday. Thank you again.”
