1. Nicola S.

“Nicola regularly walks our sausage dog Clive , she is very reliable and always so lovely. We feel very lucky to have Nicola and Clive loves her! Clive has recently had surgery which has meant there’s been lots of extra requests we have had for Nicola during her visits and she has been so kind and accommodating every time! We cannot recommend Nicola enough!”

3. Sharon E.

“Sharon was amazing! From the meet and greet we knew they would get along, she made sure he ate, played and had fusses on her drop in visits! The messages were super detailed which were amazing, let us know he was in good hands! Sharon is doing another 2 drop ins in 2 weeks and I know Rufus will be excited to see her and will definitely be using in future 😊 Thank you!!”

“Great experience. Mel looked after Harry in my house for a 60-minute drop-in visit. Did a meet and greet beforehand, responded quickly and kept me updated. Lots of photos of Harry too. Definitely recommend.”

About: I'm a dog person, I enjoy being in the company of dogs and I’ve had dogs my whole life. I would have a clan of dogs if I could. But for now this is the next best thing. I will treat your dog like they are part of the family they won’t know you’ve gone. Check out my photos, for more insight, they’ll be spoilt rotten. Dogs truly are a hoomans best friend. I work from home and so does my partner, we are very flexible and always in. My dog loves company and has the friendliest temperament. She’s in her element when she has a friend. She does like to get up for a loo break 5am sometimes earlier most mornings so this is something we are used to for the smallest 🐶. We also have a large garden that needs to be taken advantage of from our fave 4 legged friends. I am flexible to walk your dog to their routine also. They will be treated like they are part of the family. All rules you uphold with them will be kept the same e.g allowed on sofa, sleep upstairs, walks at certain times ect.


6. Hannah M.
“Hannah is fantastic with all animals of any species and size! She’s got tons of knowledge on dog behaviour and experience in the field, with years working with greyhounds and all kinds of breeds of dogs. She is very attentive when caring for pets, and gets stuck in with everything she does :) 1000/10 would recommend her services, she also does nail clips, microchipping and gives excellent behaviour advice!!”


7. Samantha H.
“Samantha is a great dog walker, has been training and walking our German Shepherd x Labrador Merlin since he was a puppy. He's one of the best behaved and well trained dogs I know.”


8. Claire M.

“Claire came to meet with us prior to booking to make we were happy with her - she was perfect! Our cat Betty was so happy with Claire. She treated her like she was her own. Lots of lovely touches, too - keeping the house tidy and welcoming for us on our return. We are so thankful to Claire for the care she gave to Betty and will definitely rebook next time we go away. Thank you so much x”


9. Archie K.
About: We‘ve always had rescue dogs growing up and have dealt with all the doggy quirks you can think of as well as consistent long walks to keep them happy. I’m confident I can successfully care for any dog that comes my way and enjoy it all the while. Very flexible schedule at the moment, I can always manage to find the time and change my plans to find whatever works best for you! On a farm at the edge of chesterfield with a secure garden with lots of room to run around. Lots of great paths nearby for long dog walks.


10. Lucy H.
About: I have been an animal lover all my life. They make a home a home! I have rescued a Romanian rescue dog from a puppy- she is now 3.5 years old and the most rewarding gift 🐶 I have experience looking after my own and other peoples puppies, more senior dogs and those with health needs. I work hybrid so I’m half at home and half in the office- my dog and your dog will be the priority for me, I’m always home to make sure no one is left too long or at all if needed. I can work flexibly and don’t work weekends. I take into account the needs of your dog whether that be that they want to be closer to me or they want space. I am happy to let them on furniture or if you would rather they don’t I will go by your wants and needs. My dog is part of the family and sticks by my side. We have a completely enclosed back garden for toilet breaks & play. We have a front drive but don’t let dogs onto it if not on a leash. I live in a quiet and calm area with a close by park for lots of walks. It is just me & my partner in the house so very little noise. Snacks & cuddles are frequent!




11. Jade P.

“Jade, you did an amazing job! Fern really loves you. She isn't like that with just anyone. She was on time, every day, I received a notification she was at my house. And then, when she left, she took photos and sent them to me. It was the highlight of my day. She followed all instructions perfectly, with feeding times, food quantities, changing the water bowls, the litter trays she washed the bowls every day! I felt that my babies were in good hands. I highly recommend her to everyone! Thank you so much Jade for the wonderful job you did? Purrs from them all! X”


12. Sam K.
About: I've had pets all my life from growing up with dogs to now owning 4 cats, 2 dogs and 8 puppies. I like to think that myself and animals have a special bond and I do my upmost best to take care of any animal in my presence. Although I have no formal qualifications I do have passion and an unconditional love for our furry friends I'm currently working part time so my availability will be quite high to be able to look after your beloved pets. Just give me a try I have a fenced garden however I cannot offer boarding or sitting at my home currently as one of my dogs is not a fan of other dogs due to her early upbringing (not by me, we are currently working on this


13. Roisin H.
“Roisin looked after my dog on occasions when I went away for the weekend, she sent daily updates on how he was and kept me informed on all activities. She is a very friendly individual and I could tell she loves and cares deeply for dogs. I felt very comfortable with letting her look after him and I would highly recommend her service.”


14. James A.
“James is amazing! I met him through his family and could see straight away that he has a natural affinity with dogs, especially my Lab! He is very calm and kind, with both humans and animals, and has proved to be very reliable too. He is keen to maintain consistency, using the same cue words as I do and asks questions about how I handle certain situations (my dog is reactive so this is very important). Buddy gets all of life's luxuries when he is with James, enjoys playing/training together and clearly loves his time with him. James has never let me down and I feel completely supported by him. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending James to any dog owners who want him to look after their pets.”


15. Elise H.

“Elise has been wonderful and very professional from our initial exchange via Rover to completing each visit. We came home to a happy and contented Angel (cat). I would definitely recommend Elise even though I was quite anxious as we had never used such a service before but Elise has been super efficient. Thank you”


16. Andy W.
About: We understand that your four-legged companions are more than just pets – they're cherished members of your family. Our mission is to provide top-notch care, love, and attention to your beloved pets, ensuring they receive the same level of care and comfort they're accustomed to at home. Founded by passionate pet enthusiasts, we were born out of a deep love for animals and a desire to create a safe and enjoyable environment for them. Our team is led by Andy, who has his own Spaniel, who is a high energy bundle of joy. Occasionally, if booking merit, Holly will perform drop ins. Andy's journey began with a simple dream: to offer a service that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of pet owners, providing a home away from home where tails wag and hearts melt. We treat each pet as an individual, tailoring our services to their unique needs, preferences, and personalities. Your pet's comfort and happiness are our top priorities. Having my own Springer means that I am out twice daily with her, and I can offer good availability around an existing dog walking commitment to my neighbour. With a Spaniel, I am keen to tire her out both mentally and physically. In addition to using a ball on the field, we have a 15m lead if recall is an issue, we also play 'find it' and practice commands to entry (sit, paw, down, role, crawl, beg etc) for treats.


17. Katy G.
About: I’m Katy, I’ve got lots of experience owning pets including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and horses. I have house sat for several friends and family including looking after a small holding with animals. I’m happy to host well behaved pets in my house during school holidays and weekends but do need plenty of notice for this- I have 2 guinea pigs who live indoors so can’t host breeds with a high prey drive; I am a teacher so currently do not have any other pets at home due to not being home enough in term time. I’m open to local, regular dog walks in term time or drop ins after school hours. In the holidays I am more available for house sitting, day time walks etc In the school holidays I am available most of time time and can work around your schedule or what is needed. In term time I am only really available at weekends or some evenings. I have a fenced garden both front and back and live locally to lots of footpaths and safe places to dog walk. I will treat your fur babies as if they are my own with lots of cuddles and attention! I do work full time but in school holidays I am very flexible to cater to pets needs! I am happy to stick to the pets usual routine or to discuss this beforehand. I prefer to do a meet and greet first to make sure the booking works for all of us - humans and animals! If house sitting in your home I will be tidy and respectful and follow any normal routines for your pets. If they are staying with me, I have a good sized fenced garden and live close to lovely off road walks.

“Danielle is professional, friendly and we would love to have her look after our dogs again. Also, our dogs loved her drop-in visits and walks.”
