We honestly can’t recommend John highly enough, Peggy Sue loved staying with him. She was so settled on her trail night with him. She is staying with him again this week while we get married, and it’s so nice knowing how settled she is there. John sent cute photos and updates and it really put our minds at rest :)

Zinadia is an excellent and responsible dog sitter, our schnautzer Dali seems to have had a great time in her care. Highly recommended.

Phil and his lovely wife took great care of our labrador, Sparky. We had a meet and greet prior to boarding so we could all get to know each other and make sure it was the right fit. Phil is an experienced dog owner and he and his wife live in the quiet countryside, a perfect setting for your dogs holiday. We received regular photos and video updates on Sparky's welfare and messages describing the adventures he went on. Sparky almost didn't want to come home! He was clearly very relaxed whilst staying at Phil's home and made friends with other dogs and relatives over the weekend. I cannot recommend Phil and Liz enough! We will definitely be asking them to look after our boy again.

Louisa has house and dog sat for us on many occasions. Our dog LOVES her, and she doesn’t mind sharing a bed with him which not everyone is happy to do (he just likes to jump up for a cuddle and doesn’t sleep there the whole night). The house is clean and tidy when we return (I think was actually better than how we left it last time). And she sends us updates and photos when we are away.

Left our dog rodney again with leeanne for 2 weeks the longest we've ever left him. As always rodney was happy to go and I'm always happy knowing he is well cared with lots of affection. Think rodney thinks it's his second home 😀. Would definitely recommend leeanne

Amazing with Shadow. Sent multiple pictures throughout Shadows stay with him, constantly kept me updated. He went out of his way to help me as much as possible and ended up cancelling plans as I couldn't sort out Shadow being collected via the original plan collapsing. Couldn't recommend high enough.

Jess is a hard working, caring individual. She is fantastic with all animals and is not shy about getting her hands dirty. She also has great interpersonal skills and is good at making people feel at ease. She has plenty of experience with animal care as she has 3 cats of her own, has grown up with large family dogs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs and various reptiles, so I would trust her with the care of any pet.

Natasha is a wonderful lady, I have had the pleasure of knowing her for many years, she is so kind and caring and looked after my Labrador in her home on many occasions, he loved to see her and thoroughly enjoyed going to her while I was at work, enjoying not only her company but also that of her own dog. She also walked our dog on occasion and provided brilliant entertainment in the form of games and toys and an unending supply of hugs and kisses! We are going on a trip away soon where he wouldn't have been able to come along and Natasha was to look after him in her home for the week as we couldn't ever imagine leaving him with anyone else. Sadly he passed away a few weeks ago, Natasha was a power of strength for my husband and I but also showed so much compassion and love for Barley and displayed her own grief at his passing. I would thoroughly recommend Natasha and would trust her implicitly with my beloved pet.

Wow, we couldn't be happier with Dewika taking care of our energetic one-year-old pup, Bruno, while we were away for a couple of days. Bruno had an absolute blast under Dewika's care. He played like crazy with her own dog, and we got tons of adorable videos and photos to prove it! Dewika's updates were a game-changer for us. We felt so connected to Bruno even though we were miles away. It's clear that Dewika loves dogs and knows how to make them feel at home. We're definitely going back to Dewika for pet sitting in the future. If you want your fur baby to have a great time and be in safe hands, Dewika is your go-to person. Highly recommended!

About: I have been looking after family and friend pets for years! we also own a 3 year old loving mini-golden doodle who is super friendly and gets on well with other dogs. My husband and I are huge dog lovers so your dog will be treated as our own. We live in Ardleigh and surrounded by fields and woodlands just outside our back garden so your pet would have the absolutely best time! I normally walk three times a day around this area it is very quiet so no public walking around this area so its extremely safe. We cant wait to welcome another furry friend into our household with lots of cuddles and affection! I work from home during the week as a business owner mainly on a laptop so I will always have your pet with me, I have lots of free time within the day to take care of your pet and lots of fun dog walks on the meadow fields behind our house. I have a fenced garden area and your pet will never be unattended your pet will be on lead on walks (unless you state otherwise) I will send daily pupdates so you know your pet is safe and having a fab time.

About: I have had in total 4 dogs in my life, loved to walk with them. I have also looked after a dog for a lady in the village while she was on holiday. My work can work around this. I am available most evenings and weekends. This will be something that I'll be doing more frequently in the future. In our home we have a fenced, safe garden for them to play in. Lots of local, long walks for them to enjoy. There are 2 dogs that will be able to keep your pups company.
