4. Kristie M.
“I wish I had found her sooner! Our Spaniel, Winter absolutely loved her stay while we were on holiday in Turkey. Will definitely be letting her stay again and so much better for her than the kennels (and a lot less worrying for us)!”

“Nicole’s love for animals is infectious. She has a unique ability to connect with dogs on a deep level, making every walk an adventure. Her enthusiasm for the outdoors ensures that your furry friend gets plenty of exercise and fresh air. I wholeheartedly recommend her dog walking services. Your pet will thank you! 🐾!”


6. Ceilidh B.
About: Hello! I’m Ceilidh, I have over 15 years worth of experience working in a rescue centre, and with a wide range of dogs and cats in different environments as well as owning my own dogs (and cats previously). I am passionate about enriching walks for your dogs so that their walks will be enjoyable and interesting! I have experience with all kind of behavioural issues such as reactivity, resource guarding, separation anxiety etc.. and help train and support these behaviours and I am fully confident in managing these behaviours whilst im spending time your pet, I am also qualified in dog first aid. I am flexible with my daily routine and now have the ability and time to dedicate myself to helping enrich your pets on different adventures. Due to having pets of my own I can only offer boarding in my clients own home which would be no longer than a week’s care at a time.

“That is enzy been on another walk with Amy he is getting better everyday and Amy is so friendly and always listens to anything you have to say I would definitely recommend her to anyone”


8. Justyna M.

“Genuinely can’t thank Justyna enough for the care provided for our two dogs at short notice , Justyna even fitted in a meet and greet so quickly. Leo is such a reactive dog and it was so nice to see him take to Justyna ♥️ thank you for all the updates and photos will 100% use you again at some point. Highly recommend Justyna !!!!!”


9. Petra Natascha Linda N.
“Natascha has been both reliable and trustworthy when looking after and walking our labradoodle, Teddy. He absolutely loves her, I can’t quite believe it as he goes mad when she comes to walk him, I swear she’s the ‘dog whisperer’!! I highly recommend her.”


10. Bryan L.
“Bryan was fantastic at looking after my Chocolate Labrador, Woody both for short visits and long stays. Woody has a variety of skin allergies and needs to take daily medication, which Bryan consistently gave him. I received daily updates while I was away and knew that Woody was in safe hands. Whenever Woody sees Bryan now, he is always extremely excited, so I know they both had a great time together. If you are looking for a patient, kind and conscientious dog sitter, my recommendation for Bryan could not go higher!”


11. Clara W.
About: I have had cats my whole life, as well as spending time with dogs of close family and friends growing up. More recently, my friends and family friends have trusted me to look after their pets so I have past prior experience for both dogs and cats. I’m currently working part time on site and two days working from home, so I have spare time to spend with pets. I work Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays on site but can also be available after 6pm on those days. Additionally I have Tuesday/Wednesday and the weekend free to spend full days with your pets. I do not currently have the means to look after pets in my own home, due to having two cats already at home who are quite sensitive to change!


12. Kayleigh P.
“Kayleigh is a wonderful and caring pet caregiver! She is responsible, attentive, and loves animals. Having had her own dog for three years, she absolutely understands the responsibility of taking care of a pet. She is the most reliable person I know, and goes above and beyond to make sure her pet is safe and happy. I highly recommend Kayleigh for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”


13. Anna K.

“Anna was fantastic when looking after Apollo and Ares. She even managed to befriend Ares who is usually elusive and doesn't engage with people. Photos and videos were plentiful! We had a difficult situation with a broken lock on the second to last day, which could've happened to anyone, but Anna made sure the cats were fed through their cat flap and got in touch quickly so we could arrange a locksmith to resolve the issue. I'd happily recommend Anna to anyone needing their cats looked after!”


14. Amie W.

“From my son Noah - Amie was really good, gave lots of snuggles and the cats loved her. From me - Communicative, responsive and helpful, thank you. We look forward to using you again in the future.”

18. Ellie B.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, from family members to family friends. My boyfriend has a gorgeous 1 year old German Shepherd who I regularly look after I work in a restaurant/ bar full time but I’m free most afternoons for dog walking. This keeps me active and is enjoyable for me I understand the importance of pets safety and am happy to do anything to keep a dog safe and am understanding of different situations and what they may need


19. Jordan H.
“I had the Jordan look after my dog for two weeks whilst I was on holiday and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. He took amazing care of my dog, making sure to provide two long walks a day and feeding. It was evident that my dog was loved and cared for whilst I was away, he was happy and relaxed when I returned home. Jordan is reliable and responsible. Jordan sent me regular updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of a dog sitter or walker!”
