1. Kyal T.

“Kyal has looked after our dog, Dexter a number of times now and he is always well cared for. Dexter can be a challenge but we feel happy knowing he’s in good hands.”


2. Holly G.

“Holly was awesome, our Rosie loved the day with her and we couldnt have been happier. Would 100% book Holly again, so don't hesitate to give her a shout ?”


3. Grace G.

“Grace was wonderful! This was our first experience with having someone to look after Duke in our home and from the moment Grace arrived we felt comfortable and safe that she would look after Duke really well. She is calm and clearly knows and loves dogs. Duke warmed to her straight away and chose to curl up on the sofa with her while we packed out last bits to go away upstairs, even though they’d just met! Grace sent videos and photos over the weekend which was really lovely and she was really quick at replying to our messages too. We’d have no hesitation in having Grace to look after Duke again, Thanks so much Grace!”


4. Hannah V.

“I had Hannah watch my miniature dachshund, Coco for one week and I couldn’t be happier! Coco is a bit of a nervous girl but took to Hannah instantly. We felt so at ease leaving her and the daily updates we received reassured us that she was having a great time. I came back to a clean and tidy house and a very happy doggo. I would highly recommend Hannah for any pet sitting needs!”


5. Bobby H.

“Bobby was brilliant with Maddie from start to finish. She was in constant communication and was prompt and was very understanding when I had an unexpected delay! She treated Maddie as one of her own and you can’t ask for more than that ?”


6. Luke S.

“Luke and his partner Enaya were so lovely. Piper is an old anxious girl and very particular, but she was very comfortable with them. Luke has been so reassuring, communicative, and professional both times we’ve booked with him. Will definitely always be our first choice to look after Piper in the future”


7. Ruby J.

“Ruby was great. Punctual and great with Nora. Will book with Ruby again next time in Falmouth!”


8. Mishael N.
“"I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Mishael N. for a long time, and I can honestly say they are one of the most caring and responsible people I know — especially when it comes to pets. Mishael has cared for my dog on multiple occasions, and I always feel confident that my furry friend is in great hands. Whether it's taking them on long walks, playing fetch, or simply providing love and comfort, Mishael always goes above and beyond. They have an amazing ability to bond with animals and create a calm, loving environment. If you want someone who will treat your pet with the utmost care and attention, Mishael is the one you can trust!"”


9. Eleanor T.
“Absolutely amazing! I cannot reccomend Ellie enough. She is trustworthy, reliable and loyal - all you can ask for! I found Ellie reccomended on a local facebook page, I hadn’t left my dog with anyone before but I am so glad I made the leap. I’d never leave my dog with anyone else now I’ve found her. Ellie is always prompt with great timekeeping skills, respectful to my home by always going the extra mile to clear up after herself and my dog (who is a very messy boy sometimes) and always kind. It’s such a pleasure to know my dog is in safe hands!”


10. Hannah W.

“What can I say. Hannah was an absolute god send to us. My youngest pup is a little nervous but warmed to Hannah and made her feel at ease. They were best friends by the end! I used Hannahs services due to a family member passing away and having to fly last minute to the funeral and on top of looking after my pups she put me at ease through out and even picked us up from the train station. Highly recommend Hannah she’s brilliant with dogs and a beautiful soul.”


11. Cara T.

“Cara was fabulous! We met a couple of weeks earlier so that she could meet the dogs and see how they behaved on a walk. She communicated with me whilst I was away and sent photos. I came back to 2 very happy dogs and the bedding had even been washed! Thoroughly recommend!”


12. Lilly M.
“I have two dinky dogs that have been walked by Lilly multiple times and they always come back very happy, 10/10 recommend to anyone who wants someone who's going to love your dog like it was their own.”


13. Hayley M.

“absolutely fantastic. Hayley stayed in our house and managed to make our very shy and nervous dog comfortable and at ease. she sent lots of photos and videos of the dogs and sent regular updates. she left the house clean and tidy (you wouldn't have even known she had been there) and even pointed out that our freezer was breaking, potentially saving us £100s. would definitely recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future.”


14. Gabrielle P.

“Amazing puppy care - thank you so much !! ☺️ Gabi came round to look after our little dusty and our pup had the best time! We recieved lovely updates and photos, Gabi was also very respectful and left the house incredibly tidy. Thank you again, Gabi was so friendly and we felt very happy - would definitely book again 😊”


15. Ellen G.
About: I have a range of experience with a range of animals, and always looking for more experience and challenge. I love being with animals and the journey we go on together is incredibly meaningful. I have a lot of availability, ranging from morning to afternoon. Happy to do drop ins, walks, pet sits. I think it’s key to find balance in work schedule, so I have a flexible schedule. Happy to do weekends. I meet and greet the owner and pet before hand, and instructions/routine are discussed, regular contact with owner to check in with each other. I look after your pets, as if they were mine!


16. Isabelle W.

“Isabelle was communicative while we were away, and left our house nice and tidy after pet sitting 😊”


17. Liv N.
“Liv is absolutely wonderful with my pup Oberon, and always very happy to help out! You know what life can be like with a house full of kids ( that includes the hubbie 😂 ) and she often will pop round to walk Oberon last min when I’m a bit hectic!! I would recommend her 100%.”


18. Jenny H.

“Jenny was sitting in our house for our two collies. It was clear from the start she loves dogs and our dogs took to her straight away. We are very happy and will definitely book her again soon”


19. Verity M.
“I’ve been friends with Verity since we were 12 and she is so lovely and kind hearted. She’s adventurous and always out and about, organising walks and days out with our friends. We regularly walk with my dog Wilf. She will be a great person to have visit and take your dogs out!”


20. Theo G.
About: Hi, I’m Theo George — a reliable and passionate dog carer based in Newquay and Truro with years of hands-on experience. I run the online delivery side of my family business, Cornwall Canine Centre, and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life — from small Yorkies to champion Great Danes. My mum’s been a professional breeder and Crufts winner for over 20 years, and I’ve grown up helping with grooming, walking, training, raw food feeding, and everything in between. I know how to handle all kinds of dogs — nervous, hyper, giant breeds, seniors, puppies — you name it. I may only be 18, but don’t let that fool you. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs — literally. My mum is a professional breeder and dog show expert, and at one point, we had 36 dogs on our property (not including puppies!). From a young age, I’ve been hands-on with walking, feeding, grooming, and even caring for newborn litters. I’m calm, confident, and mature beyond my age — especially when it comes to dogs. Ever since I was 8 I used to compete in Champion shows with my mum around the whole of UK, I’ve been to places like Birmingham where I’ve competed in Crufts, been to Wales, Scotland. Ever since I was young my neighbours and friends will rely on me to look after their canine pets, walking, sitting and I know it’s not a flex but I’ve been in many scenarios where dogs have got into awful fights and I’ve had to break it up, put stitches on open wounds in them after where things have been bloody, my parents trust me a lot of on these situations even after growing up in a butchers where I’ve seen horrific stuff. I’m not these dog walkers where if there dog is in a fight they panic. I just stay calm and composed and break it up. So you can always rely on me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently live with my parents, and we’ve always had dogs in the house — so I’m constantly walking and looking after them whenever I have free time, doing little road trips in my van. Monday to Friday, I’m at college during the day and running the online side of my family dog business in the evenings, so I’m unavailable for daytime bookings during the week. However, I can offer house sitting overnight or evening visits between 8pm–10pm if needed. On Saturdays, I’m available from 1pm onwards for dog walking, sitting, or quick pop-ins to let dogs out. Sundays I’m fully free and available all day for the same services. When caring for dogs, whether in my own home or a pet owner’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment that suits the dog’s personality and needs. Personally, at home, I let our dogs out in our secure garden throughout the day so they can run around freely and burn off energy at their own pace. I also take them on beach walks or field runs, which keeps them active and content — after that, they usually relax and sleep for most of the day. I feed my own dogs a raw food diet because of the many health benefits I’ve seen over the years — shinier coats, better digestion, and more energy. That said, I always respect each dog’s usual routine and diet, and I’m happy to prepare kibble, raw food, or any other special requirements you provide. I’m big on structure, positive energy, and being hands-on. I’ll give your dog proper exercise, attention, and supervision — not just sit around scrolling on my phone. If I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with respect and care just like I do with the dogs. I’m also happy to give medication, deal with special feeding needs, or help with basic training commands like sit, stay, or lead control. If anything unexpected ever happens, I stay calm and act quickly — I’ve dealt with fights, injuries, and emergencies before, and I always put the dog’s safety first. If I look after your canine on a consistent basis, I’d be happy to offer you a 10% discount on any of our Cornwall Canine Centre deliveries — whether it’s raw food, treats, or other essentials. It’s my way of saying thanks and making your life a little easier
