“My 3 and a half year old cockerpoo, Ralph, stayed for day care with Nikki for the first time yesterday. We went for a meet and greet last week and Nikki was great with Ralph. Nikki showed Ralph love, care and fuss (and treats!). Nikki sent me lots of pictures and videos during day care of how happy Ralph was at hers and playing with other dogs in the garden. Nikki is very accommodating for your needs and makes you feel assured that you are leaving your dog in the hands of someone who genuinely cares about your dog. Couldn't ask for better. Thank you Nikki.”

“I’ve booked with Hayley and Pete a few times now and I wouldn’t want my furry friend to go anywhere else. Lots of love, care, and fun walks, and it’s real peace of mind to know he’s with such a lovely family. I would highly recommend. Graham, Hazel, Michael and Snoops. 🐶”

“For a first time ever at daycare I'm really pleased. Obi is a nervous little guy sometimes and Dilma and co. really helped Obi feel comfortable. He even had a little nap which I was surprised at. I didn't know if he was going to be able to settle in a strange environment. Will definitely be coming back for another play day x”

9. Zoe J.
About: Hi - I’m Zoe, I offer dog boarding as well as day care and drop in and a walking service. I have two cockapoos and I’ve had dogs all my life. I prefer dogs to most people truth be told. I live in a lovely rural location with my husband and two grown boys 20 and 16, I have 10 acres of land, access to woodland, country walks or an amble round the village on quiet lanes. My garden is large and secure, with separate patio and lawn area. I am able to keep dogs separate from my own if that is what’s preferred, I know not all dogs like the company of others all the time! I worked for a reputable dog care company for 7 years but have decided to register on here as an independent carer. I am fully insured, know basic dog first aid and I am currently studying for a level 4 diploma in dog training, obedience and body language. I am very flexible with bookings and would love to meet your dogs needs and offer them a holiday or stay in a home from home environment, not to mention as much attention as they can handle. I work from home so have plenty of time to devote to your dog/s and my hours are completely flexible. I can accommodate routines as best I can, and will flood you with pictures and updates if required. I am able to offer your dog a true home from home experience, if that’s cuddles on the sofa or leave me alone I’m happy lay here! I get the message. I can separate your dog/s from mine inside or outside ensuring that their needs are always met. I have a secure garden / patio and plenty of land for free play. I have cared for puppies to medicated older dogs so have plenty of experience with all ages and energies!

11. Claire M.

“Denzel our 11 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback had a great time with Ivan and Karen who were very welcoming and attentive to his needs. We were made to feel very welcome during the handovers . He enjoyed his walk with them and he is booked in for a longer stay soon.”

“Clare was fantastic. Kept me fully updated and Kaia entertained! Really well looked after, I’ll be reaching out to Clare again soon I’m sure!”


14. Amelia B.
“We have used Amelia B pet caring services on several occasions. Our very sassy Cockerpoo loves her and is always so excited to see her. Millie is always punctual, caring and very attentive to our dog’s needs. We have used Millie for day care and extended overnight and holiday stays. Millie always keeps us updated with regular messages, photos and videos of our dog on her walks and outings. We would not hesitate to recommend Millie to any other dog owners. Thank you Amelia B pet caring services, you take the stress out of going away on holiday. 😊”
