“Clara was excellent with Kuma! We booked a little last minute yet she was more than accommodating. We ended up needing to change Kuma’s pick up time, which she was totally fine with making our overall experience with leaving Kuma in her trust even better! Will definitely be booking again.”


2. Megan L.

“Megan is a beautiful person and was absolutely wonderful and extremely patient and confident with my little old boy, Who is a rescue from BDH. We had a meet and greet and she was brilliant putting Uno and myself at ease. Megan has a lot of love and experience with dogs, as she has had her own for many years. She has a great understanding of what the dogs needs are. Uno takes medication and she was such a professional given him his tablets and she also has an understanding of dogs that have medical needs. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient, caring, intuitive, responsible, patient, caring, intuitive, responsible dog sitter. When I dropped him off, Megan already had a bowl of water ready for him. She was so welcoming and with all of my boys special needs and quirks, Megan took them all in, she was not phased at all with him. Uno has separation anxiety and Megan was able to settle him down after I left, and then within a few hours they became buddies. Megan is a very loving , peaceful, caring person and loved Uno. She took the time to get to know him and quickly understood his needs and queues for what he wanted. This is very needed for my boy to get to know him. He was with Megan for a day and I also booked for uno to go for a 4 night holiday stay with her, He loved it! He got lots of cuddles and loving and was resting together in the same room. He loves a peaceful environment and that's what he got being with her. Megan communicate with you on a regular basis. Thank you Megan for taking such good care of my boy and keeping me updated with photos and texts. I would 100% recommend Megan for your pet babies.”

“Whoa! Meropi is an amazing dog and cat sitter. Everything went very smoothly and comfortably. Both animals were surrounded with love and attention! I received lots of detailed updates and funny photos of them. Highly recommended!”


4. Wai Sum p.

“Wai Sum, her partner Nathan, and Coby the Corgi were all amazingly friendly and welcoming to our border collie Loki. He stayed just over a week and we received daily messages with photos and video updates of both life at home and trips to the park where he got plenty of exercise. They have a spacious area in their home where the dogs can chill out and maybe play a bit too. By the looks of it Loki had a wonderful time and so did we whilst we were away, knowing that he was being not only well looked after but also receiving lots of love during his own holiday. Thank you!!”


5. Salemne A.

“Oreo absolutely adores going to Salemne! It brings him so much joy and happiness. Not only does he get to play with another dog, but he is also pampered and cared for so well that he sometimes feels a bit down when he returns home, haha. Every day, I receive delightful pictures and videos of Oreo, along with regular updates on how he's doing. Plus, I can always reach out to them and inquire about Oreo, which truly warms my heart. This service is absolutely incredible, and booking is a breeze. Thank you immensely for always responding promptly!”

10. Hannah A.

“We were slightly apprehensive about using Rover for our dog Percy, as he can sometimes be wary of new people and can take a little while to settle, but with Hannah and Chris and their gorgeous dog Mouse, he quickly felt at home. They were absolutely brilliant with him, providing us with regular updates during his stay and reassuring us that he was safe and happy (despite London reaching insane temperatures!) We could tell that Percy absolutely loved his time there, and made a friend for life in Mouse. We would recommend Hannah and Chris in a heartbeat, and for as long as they are prepared to look after dogs, they will continue to be on the top of our list.”


11. Carole D.

“Carole was a fantastic dog boarder and we couldn’t be more grateful. We made quite a last minute booking and thankfully she was free to look after Sylvester. We met and I knew instantly she was going to take great care after him. He’s a large poodle with a lot of energy and Carole was able to give him all the walks he needed and she followed the instructions on his food and other care perfectly. She also sent us plenty of updates with photos whilst we were away. I would definitely ask Carole to look after Sylvester again - he loved her and Cassie 😊”

“Patricia was lovely and made me feel very at ease from the first meeting. It’s clear she really cares about the individual dog and it’s personal needs. I was kept up to date daily with photos and videos and long messages of what Baby had been up to, as well as her eating and toilet habits. Would definitely leave Baby with Patricia again!! Highly recommend”

“Cannot recommend Tanya enough! She takes my dog out for me regularly when I am in the office once a week and I am so pleased! My dog is a rescue and is very nervous and she takes a while to trust and Tanya took the time to learn and understand her so is more than a dog walker! Thank you!”
