“Elizabeta made us feel at ease at first meeting nothing was a problem. Poppy had such a great time looking at all the photos and videos which were sent to us, i would definitely use Elizabeta again. We had a great time knowing she was well looked after. Shout out to Jay too. Thanks guys 🐶”
“My Labrador George has stayed with Donald multiple times now and to say Donald’s service and care has been outstanding would be an understatement. Myself and my girlfriend are incredibly picky about who we have mind George as we love him very much but we’ve found the perfect dog minder in Donald. George is always happy to see Donald and Margaret when we arrive and it makes parting with him for a few days a whole lot easier. Due to a flight delay and car trouble I was late to pick George up by about 3 hours one day and had no phone to update Donald, but this was absolutely no problem and when I turned up at close to 1am to collect George (embarrassingly) this was absolutely no problem with Donald as he’s incredibly accommodating. We’re incredibly lucky to have found a dog minder like Donald and Margaret.”
“Gavin & Ariana took amazing care of Ted while I was away. They took the time to get to know him and how to handle his reactivity and sent photos which put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely book them again.”
“Ching was amazing with my dog! She sent so many great pictures from their adventures while my dog was with her and kept me updated the whole week. Would not hesitate to book her again 😁”

“Contacted Anne Marie for home boarding for our 10 year old lhasa apso for our recent trip. A lovely lady who was enthusiastic, caring and affectionate towards our wee dog. She kept us advised of his progress during the 2 weeks we were away, as this was the first time we had left him with someone we didn't know. When we came back he was very happy to see us and we knew that she had cared for him ever so well. I am happy to recommend Anne Marie to anyone who needs their dog looked after.”
“Isabella is very nice and reliable person. We got daily reports from her and we could see that she dealt with our nervous dog very well. We will definitely book another stay with her.”
“Kaelan was absolutely amazing looking after our 10 month black lab Finlay for the time he was staying with him, Finlay had never stayed with anyone by himself before so we were a bit nervous about how he would settle in, but he had a great time. Kaelan sent us regular updates and photos alongside praise for his good behaviour during his stay, he also took him out for walks and some fun activity at the beach which Finlay loved. We have already and would again gladly book Kaelan again. You can tell he really cares for the dogs in his care and Finlay can’t wait to go back already. Thank you so much again!! Natalie & Hayley 🐶”

Couldn't have aksed for better and would definitely recommend and use them again if needs be.”
