“Sofia was great. Monty settled really well with her, and was so well looked after.”

“Our dog Rudy had the best day with Alexandra! We requested to book only the day before, Alexandra kindly accepted and helped us out with our urgent request and we couldn’t have been happier to find her. She was so professional, doing everything she could to ensure Rudy had a safe and happy stay with her, and providing loads of photos and info on the lovely country walk they went on. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will be using her for any future dog sitting needs.”

“Teddy had a lovely day with Sandie. Sandie is very caring and treats each dog as a special individual. She has a lovely home and lovely local walks. Thank you Sandie for your care for Teddy today.”

“We honestly couldn't have asked for anyone better than Cathy to look after Obi while we've been on holiday. Leaving your dog with someone else is always a bit nerve-wracking but Cathy made us feel completely at ease from the start. She clearly has a genuine love for dogs and it really showed in the way she cared for Obi. We loved receiving the updates and photos throughout the day and seeing how happy and relaxed he was meant we could properly enjoy our time out without worrying. Thank you so much, Cathy, for taking such wonderful care of our boy. It means more than you know and we'd book with you again in a heartbeat. We're so grateful to have found you 🥰”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs - we’ve had a Dalmatian/ husky / Labrador mix as well as a corgi and then a German shepherd rescue dog who was a very nervous and shy dog. I am proud foster mum to a stubborn sausage dog (who will be able to stay at his owners when I look after other dogs) and have experience looking after energetic spaniels, barky french bulldogs as well as kind and calm rescue dogs from Macao and Romania. I work from home and my job is very flexible so I can give your dog my full attention either at my home or in the home they are used to. I love spending time with furry friends - cuddles, playtime, long or short walks, I’m super easy, caring and attentive. I work from home, my job is very flexible and I can flex my work diary around commitments so can take time off and have plenty of time for walks, play time or wee breaks. I live in a two bed flat with a balcony and an enclosed garden area. I am near lots of fields and places to walk and let dogs run around

“Zoe is quite simply the best! Our dachshund Ginger is always happy to see Zoe and is looked after so beautifully. We’ve found our forever sitter!”

“We met Ross a few weeks ago to introduce ourselves and our dog, Eddie. Yesterday we left Eddie with Ross for a full day and it's obvious that Eddie was very well looked after and that they enjoyed each other's company. There are some lovely walks where Ross lives so the two of them went out walking. Ross sent us some photos and updates throughout the day which is lovely. We will definitely use Ross's service again and have no hesitation in recommending him.”

“Thank you, Jackie, for such an excellent 24 hours taking care of our Italian Spinone. He was beautifully looked after. I returned to find him playing happily with a Border Terrier, having had some good walks and spent lots of time in Jackie's garden. He can be a fussy eater but Jackie handled all of this with aplomb. We will be back!”

“Kerry and her family were very welcoming when we arrived. I immediately felt sure that Jasper would be well looked after. In fact he never noticed we were leaving. Jasper immediately engaged with Kerry’s dog, Tilly who was very playful and well matched to his energy levels. At the end of the day we collected a very tired but happy and contented doggy. I will definitely use Kerry again when I return to Dorset next year.”

About: I’ve looked after dogs for several years both my own and other people’s. I have experience with dogs of all ages and love looking after puppies as much as older dogs. I often work from home so I’m able to give dogs lots of love and attention, I have a large fenced garden and loads of toys for them to play with. A usual day involves long walks, playing in the house and garden, playing with toys and enrichment activities and lots of cuddles! The house is very secure with a gate and wall at the garden so when coming in and out there is no chance of a dog escaping. The house is a few minutes walk from a large field where we regularly take our dog and there are lots of other great walks nearby.

“Thank you Trudy - you gave my spaniel a happy day and sent a couple of videos of him enjoying himself with your dogs in your garden and out on a walk.”

About: I have always grown up around dogs, having mostly had golden retrievers and a very big Estrella Mountain dog when I was alot younger! have recently just left my role working as a client care assistant at the Medivet 24hr Vet Hospital in Dorchester, where I acquired alot of knowledge relating to pets and their wellbeing - knowing what to look out for emergencies etc. I have also volunteered at the Margaret Green Rescue centre. I just love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I have currently left my role at a vet practice to care for my Grandad. I am really going to miss being surrounded by 4 legged friends so am pretty flexible over the next few months. Another passion of mine is travel so I do have a few trips but open to discussing availability Having 2 goldens, I know how much our fur babies love the attention! If you’re worried about leaving them then do not fear, I am on hand for lots of cuddles and love. Having lived in Dorset my whole life, I know the best spots of beautiful walks (also remote places away from others if reactive)

About: My wife, Pisamai and myself have always had a dog until our beloved Dalmatian, Lexi died last year. We miss her so much, but travel a lot, so thought looking after other people's dogs might fill the void! My wife, Pisamai and myself are retired, so unless we are traveling, we spend most of our time either walking, cycling, or at home in Weymouth. We live in Weymouth and have fully fenced garden. We live 10 minutes walk from a beach and numerous other walks, including the Dorset Coast path.

“My dog Maxwell had a great time with Heidi. I received some lovely pictures of him on his walk. She was patient and considerate with his needs.”

“Bugsy had a great day with Kelsey & Jack! They responded quickly, very trustworthy and our dog said only good things. Would happily book them again.”

“just a day stay with Allana for Bilbo today buy once again I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. He settled quickly and Allana sent reassuring photos, videos and messages throughout the day. She was kindly very flexible on pick up time which was a lot of pressure off us. Staying with Allana is a home from home for our dog and we couldn't be recommend anyone more.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Danielle and partner! From the moment I left Mika on the first day, they were incredibly warm and welcoming—not just to me, but most importantly to my 38kg Bernese puppy, Mika. Finding a daycare that’s not only comfortable with larger breeds but truly understands them can be tough, but they were amazing. Mika can be a bit shy at first, but they were so patient and accommodating, giving her all the time she needed to settle in. They clearly love what they do, and it shows in how happy and relaxed Mika is when I pick him up. It’s such a relief knowing he was in caring, capable hands—and getting plenty of play and cuddles with Caesar while at theirs. Definitely would book again! Thank you so much!”

“Jane took great care of our silly pup Flo for the evening - her dog Watson and Flo had a wonderful time and communication was great, would recommend!”

“Thank you for looking after my beautiful husky today, at such short notice. He seems chilled and calm. I will definitely contact you again when I need some help. Big hello to your lovely toddler….”

“This was Mac’s first with Patri and the photos say it all, a very happy dog. Looking forward to his next visit”
