Liga has taken great care of my dog on his first overnight stay. I really appreciated the photos and videos she sent of him having a ball with his new buddies. He’s been treated as one of the family. Thank you Liga!

Mango had the best time and was well looked after. We received updates and pictures and if dogs could smile Mango certainly was! The setup is perfect for dogs with a secure fence and perfect for dog walks. It made us feel a little less guilty for having a night away without her. We could relax knowing she was in safe hands. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking in the future if we are in the area.

Alice was great with Wilf. We had a meet and greet first, then Wilf stayed for an overnight. There's plenty of room, a very large garden and lots of land. Wilf had walks and played with Alice's dog. He came back very tired! We'll certainly be using Alice again.

About: From a very young age, I have always had a huge love for animals and have grown up surrounded by pets. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I am truly passionate about. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your dog, and I myself would find it difficult to trust anyone with my babies. I can assure you that every dog in my care will be treated with the same love, attention, and affection as my two Cockapoos Malibu & Cleo get. Their happiness, comfort, and safety will always be my top priority. Whether it’s walks, playing, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I will make sure your dog feels loved and well cared for always whilst they are away from you. If you wish I will send you daily pupdates please just let me know! All dogs in my care will have free roam of my house and garden, I have a dog flap so they can use the garden at any time and happy for them to be on the furniture and our bed! I am currently available to look after your dog or dogs whenever suits you. I am available Monday-Sunday for boarding or doggy day care. I have a secure fenced garden🌳 and 2 friendly fur babies to keep yours company🐶🐶 There will be lots of playing, fuss and love given. I am happy to walk your dog/dogs aswell if you wish.

Booked my dog in last minute with Kathryn, was explaining prior to him arriving that he’s a bit of a handful (excitable with lots of energy) and they were lovely people and very accommodating of this! Aswell as this, seems like he had a great time, pub, swimming, walks, being around other dogs, wouldn’t hesitate to book again, just not sure they’d have him! 😂😂

When I went to pick Bracken up, she seemed reluctant to leave Emma and I'm sure she would have gladly stayed longer! I highly recommend Emma and would definitely use her services again. Thank you!

Steve and his family were delightful and gave Maimie a lovely ‘home from home’ stay. Steve couldn’t have been more helpful. He gave us confidence from the moment we met him and his lovely dog Laszlo. He was a great communicator and sent through lovely updates and pictures while we were away. Best of all he clearly loves and understands dogs. It’s so great to find someone who is clearly adored by his canine friends! Thanks Steve and family!

John & Teresa looked after our ‘giant teddy bear’ Calli for 8 nights in February while we went abroad. We had previously had a one night trial to ensure all went well. Leaving a dog is a big decision - but with John & Teresa, we knew all would be well as soon as we first met them. They are true dog lovers who ensured that Calli was well looked after and given long and varied walks to keep her happy. When it came time to collect Calli, it was very clear that she had made a special bond with John & Teresa and that was lovely to see. We have already booked another 8 night stay in April. Thanks John & Teresa for taking such good care of Calli-Bear.

Ivana kindly looked after our dog Brian for the afternoon yesterday, and she and husband Andrew were just brilliant. Upon meeting Ivana it was obvious that she really loves dogs and Brian was very quickly made to feel at home. Her enthusiasm about the walks they were going to go on left us in no doubt that he was going to be just fine without us. She also understood immediately the quirks of a Jack Russell! When we collected him it was lovely to see how much she'd enjoyed having him there; actively engaging him and trying to anticipate his needs. In summary, we're already planning more cinema visits in Leicester as Ivana is the perfect Brian host!

Beauden clearly had the best time with her and came back super happy (No kidding, he even cried in the car when we were driving off, making us think he’s found his new home!) We’ll definitely be using Georgie again and can’t recommend her enough! ☺️

About: I’m a dog lover who’s grown up with animals of all shapes and sizes. My parents owned a working farm, so animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve owned dogs from Mastiff to my current cheeky Sausage dog. With the years of hands on experience I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities, including those with the challenging behaviour. Whether it’s a long Country Park walk, play time or a simply cuddle on the sofa. I make sure every dog feels safe, happy and loved while in my care. Your dog’s or cat’s wellbeing is always my top priority. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time dog or cat sitting. Various times available , but can be discussed further before booking. If needed to look after a puppy or small dog , I have gated and fenced all around garden, so your pet’s will be safe and secured and my little friendly Dachshund to run around with.

About: Hello 😊 We are Angela and Charlie, a couple offering a caring and reliable cat sitting service in Wymondham and nearby areas. We have both grown up surrounded by animals, which has given us a natural understanding of their behaviour, needs, and personalities from an early age 🐾 We currently have a very friendly Ragdoll of our own, which allows us to experience daily care, routines, and bonding in a very hands-on way. Over the past few years, we have regularly cared for friends’ and family’s cats in both their homes and ours, gaining experience with a wide range of temperaments, including shy, playful, and more independent cats. I work from home, which means I can provide constant companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. We are calm, reliable, and highly attentive to detail, always adapting our care to each cat’s personality and routine. Above all, we treat every cat as if they were part of our own casa 🏡💛

About: I have had cats for as long as I can remember, growing up with them from a very young age. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their behaviour, personalities, and individual needs. Currently, I have three cats of my own and two dogs, so caring for multiple cats and managing different temperaments is something I’m very comfortable with. I absolutely love cats—honestly, I’m a bit obsessed. I enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s playing with energetic kittens or giving gentle attention to older, more relaxed cats. I’m experienced with cats at all stages of life, from young, playful kittens to senior cats who may need a quieter, more attentive approach. I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for any cat in my care. I understand that every cat is different, and I’m more than happy to accommodate their individual routines, preferences, and needs—whether that means sticking to specific feeding schedules, administering basic care, or simply giving them the space or affection they require to feel at ease.

We had a fantastic experience with Mara, while she house sat and looked after our two cats for a couple of nights. From the start, she was friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with, which immediately put us at ease. She took excellent care of our cats, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and given plenty of attention. It was clear they were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says a lot. She also treated our home with great respect and left everything clean and tidy. We really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away it made a big difference knowing everything was going so well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we’d be very happy to have her back again in the future.

About: As a dog mum myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely at ease when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I have experience supporting dogs with anxiety, as well as senior dogs who need a little extra patience and gentleness. I’m also confident with puppies and understand how to balance structure and play to support their training and routine. I work in a special needs education setting, so I’m naturally tuned in to body language, behaviour, and creating a safe, soothing environment. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles, enrichment games, or sticking closely to your dog’s routine - your pet will feel right at home with me. Right now, I’m off work for the next 10 weeks, so I have full availability every day to dedicate to pet care. This means your dog will get my undivided attention - whether it’s for walks or home visits. I’m flexible, responsive, and able to adapt to your pet’s routine without having to juggle other commitments. It’s the perfect time for me to offer calm, consistent care, just like they’d get at home. I always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding times, walks, medication (if needed), and any house routines you’d like me to keep consistent. I send regular updates and photos so you can feel fully reassured while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed, loved, and completely at ease in your absence.

About: Hello there! My name is Cara (mummy), together with my 10 year old son, Joey we spend our time exploring quirky little places all over the world. Check us out @aroundtheworldinlittlesteps if you want to find out about us more. I currently work remotely as an online tutor, but I love languages and art and nature. I are big animal lovers and have always had them in our lives. Although exploring new places means we can't have a furry family member full time, I have looked after dogs, cats. I rescued a dog and 5 kittens from the streets of Brazil when living there last year and successfully re-homed them. I'll will be sure to update you with lots of pictures. Being outdoors is my favourite hobby and sharing that experience together with an animal is something I thrive on. Looking forward to meeting you and you furry/ or not animal family members soon!

My dog couldn’t have had a better time! Her day care and overnight stay with Cordelia and her dogs was a great success with lots of outdoor exercise, perfect for an active retriever, and quiet times with lots of love when she was in the house. Cordelia sent lots of photos so I knew Nutmeg was having a great time. Back home Nutmeg is sleeping off a fun couple of days but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this wonderful carer.

I aim to provide a calm, caring environment where your pet can feel at home while you’re away 🐾

About: I am a Dog Trainer, with a Level 4 certification. I started my career with dogs volunteering in a Grey Hound Rehome Kennel and then became a Dog Handler in 2020, since then I have completed my Dog Trainer qualification and have trained numerous working dogs in different specialised roles, from Search to Police. I currently own a retired working dog, called Rocco, a 6 year old LabX and a Belgian Malinois, Arya, who is a year old. My dogs are very well behaved and tolerant of all temperaments. They are a playful, high-energy bunch however will respect a dogs space if they are more timid. My daily work as a Dog Trainer includes addressing behavioural cases, from reactivity to human aggression cases and troubleshooting handler issues. I have aided with pet and sport dog owners providing guidance on obedience, tracking and scent-work training. Experienced with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment so can give my full attention to the dogs in my care. I am available weekends and most days with prior confirmation. I have a two bedroom house with an enclosed garden, all fences are 6 ft high other than one side, which is slightly over 3ft and both neighbours either side have dogs. They are friendly, often playing and interacting with my two dogs through the fence. I have space for my dogs to be crated separately from any visiting.

About: Hi, people call me Remmy! 😊 I have been around dogs and family pets for a long time and have a deep love for all animals. I also own a daschund who is anxious so I understand patience and how to care for smaller dogs. I currently work full time from home on the weekdays, so your dog will have plenty of attention from me! I do not work weekends so fully flexible. I have a fenced garden and live close to fields for dog walks. Winnie loves being around other dogs but she is initally reactive due to her nature (sausage dog problems 😂), it would be great to meet beforehand to get the dogs to meet. I am happy to meet free of charge to see how they get on, I think it's important that you feel your dog is in safe hands before leaving with me.

About: I’ve had dogs in the family all of my life. We’ve had dogs from puppies as well as rescue dogs, so I have experience in both fields. In our family we have 2 cocker spaniels, 1 Cavapoo, 2 cockapoos and a golden retriever who I regularly look after both during the day and overnight. I have my own dog, Elvis, who is a 7 month old Cockapoo. We have had him since 8 weeks old and have done all of his training. I also have experience in looking after elderly dogs with additional needs / medication. My partner Matthew (pictured) is also available for dog services, either with myself, or one or the other (depending on availability). I currently work from home full time, so I am available all day, every day for doggy day care, walks, drop in visits (local) and overnight boarding. We have our own dog who adores others dogs and would love to have yours over for a play! My partner can also offer services too, either both of us together or one or the other. We have a shared grass area which is right next to the house and is used for toilets breaks. The dogs go out there on a lead. We have lots of toys, beds, a crate if required and plenty of chews! Dogs are allowed on all beds and sofas. We have endless treats and brain stimulation games, and 2 great parks nearby. We live on a very quiet new build estate with a large grassy area in the middle for playtimes. Our dog Elvis will love to play with your fur baby and keep the company, as well as show them all of his toys and games!

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do, it’s genuinely the thing that makes me happiest. I’ve been pet sitting and providing care for the last four years, but my experience with dogs started long before that. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and honestly can’t imagine life without them in it. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routines and little quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. Whether your dog is energetic and loves adventures, enjoys long walks and playtime, or is happiest curled up having cuddles and company, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe and loved while they’re with me. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust because they’re family, not just pets. I treat every dog in my care the way I would want someone to treat my own, with patience, attention, affection and genuine care. I truly couldn’t imagine doing anything else. Spending my days around dogs, is what I love the most. I am currently working through a canine care, behaviour and welfare course from home. So I have plenty of time to love and care for your dogs as my main priority. Tell me all about your dog and their routine so I can create a home from home for them to feel safe and welcome and you to feel at ease that your fur baby is being loved and cared for. For me, trust and safety always come first because I understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a huge decision. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in a loving, secure environment where they’ll be cared for as if they were my own. I have four dogs myself, ranging from 4 to 12 years old, and they’ve been around all kinds of dogs over the years. They’re gentle, friendly, playful and have met dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities. They absolutely love making new friends and are great at helping visiting dogs feel welcomed and settled into the home. I live in a small, quiet village surrounded by fields, which means walks and adventures are endless. There’s plenty of space for dogs to explore, enjoy new smells, stretch their legs and simply be dogs. Whether your dog loves exciting walks and discovering new places, or prefers slower strolls taking everything in, there’s always somewhere peaceful and enjoyable for them. My home is full of experience, routine and understanding of dog behaviour. I know that every dog is different — some run in and make themselves at home immediately, while others need a little extra reassurance and time to adjust. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, body language and needs so they always feel safe and supported. More than anything, I aim to create an environment where dogs don’t just stay — they belong. A place where they can play, explore, relax, receive lots of affection and enjoy being part of everyday family life while you have complete peace of mind knowing they’re happy and cared for. 🐾 *i am fully insured*

About: Hi there! I’m Phoebe, a qualified veterinary nurse of 5 years. I have worked within the veterinary industry for 8 years. As a vet nurse specialising in emergency and critical care, I am dedicated to catering to pets with extra or special needs. I understand the unique conditions and requirements that some pets may have, and I strive to provide the highest level of care to meet those needs. I’ve also had the pleasure of working with the Greyhound Trust, where I learned the importance of compassion and dedication in animal care. Additionally, my time at a boarding kennel has given me hands-on experience with a variety of pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. I’m passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends and look forward to meeting them! My current schedule is 7 days on and 7 days off. So having every other week off means I spend a lot of time at home! During my 7 days on I work from 15:30 - 00:00. I can care for pets during my week when I am working too if this suits your pet’s needs. I have a 3 bedroom property with a garden that has a large fence around it. I myself have two friendly dogs. Introductions will be made to ensure compatibility with pets. While I am happy to accept raw-fed dogs, I am unable to feed them raw food during their stay with me for the safety and comfort of all pets in my care. I kindly request that raw food not be brought into my home. However, I am happy to cater to raw-fed pets in their own home to ensure their needs are met while under my care.

About: Hi, my name is Sim, I'm 25 years old, I work full time but on shifts so I have a range of availability based upon my shift patterns. I've got experience in sitting and walking different breeds, and I'm a big breed lover having my own 3 at home! (3 German shepherds!) Currently I do occasionally dog sit for friends and family, typically their dogs stay over with my 3 dogs who love having friends over! So what sets me apart from other walkers and sitters? Well, I love dogs, I've had 5 years of experience (on and off), all my dogs have been adopted and rehomed - so I've worked with a variety of different dogs with different needs. Recently fostering a dog for 3 months and got her trained up before she went to her new home which she's succeeding in! I own a car so I'm happy to travel. And with your permission if you leave your dog with me over night or for a few days, I can take them to locations such as the Peak District to get some quality time in, otherwise to the local parks and nature reserves. 😁 I do have a really big garden which is fenced off. If we require use of a create then we can encourage that with your dog, we just request to provide a bed or item that your dog is currently familiar with to keep in the crate if crate time is required, we want to keep the environment as familiar as possible to help reduce anxiety. My house has multiple cameras situated throughout the property, inside and outside for peace of mind. I work full time but I work different shifts weekly but I know what I'm working well in advance, and I have my partner to lend a hand. Large garden fenced off, cameras around the house and the outside the house so we have eyes on the property at all times. But someone will always be home.

About: Hi, I'm an experienced pet sitter who has themselves had many cats over the years and up until a couple of years a go a lovely Labradoodle. I also spent a year working as an animal care volunteer in Derby for the RSPCA. I currently have 3 cats and often look after cat friendly dogs in my own home. I have over 5 year's of cat and dog sitting / care experience and will provide your pets with fuss on their terms, feed to your instrunctions as will administer any medication. I am happy to do walks, litter tray cleans and changers, provide play, open and close curtains and I will send daily photo and video updates so that you can see how well your pets are doing. As someone who has had cats for over 40 years as well as my own dog, I know them well and love spending time with them, regardless of their age Or needs. I am a bubbly, friendly person who will always give your pets my full attention and whilst you're away I treat them like they are my own. I'll even deal with any new friends that they might bring home. I am very experienced and with cats and have enough experience with dog's to provide your pets with a caring and safe environment when you're away. If you want someone who will give them all the love and care they need whilst you're away or out for the day then I would be more than happy to help. I cover the Cropwells and as far out as Bottesford and the surrounding area. Pet care is my full time job and I’m available 7 days. However as a single parent I won’t be available for late evening calls. I treat all animals like my own. They will always be given as much or as little fuss and love as they or you want.

About: 🐾 Hello Katie from Nature Paws! I am located in Six Hills, Leicestershire. I am a natural caregiver and adore dogs. I worked for over 10 years for Mars Petcare so have a strong connection to dogs and the care they need. I have looked after family and friends dogs. I live in the Leicestershire countryside in a beautiful barn conversion. I work from home so get out and about. Your dog will enjoy 1-1 care if they come to stay and be loved, cared for and nurtured as if they were my own. For dog walking I will visit the following villages for walking Barrow Upon Soar, Seagrave, Wymeswold, Old Dalby, Grimston, Ragdale, Sileby, Burton on the Wolds, Thrussington and Rearsby I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule. I go out and about frequently. You dog will have attention and care throughout the day I care for dogs in a calm, home-from-home environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my spacious countryside barn conversion, dogs have room to explore, rest, and enjoy a peaceful routine with plenty of attention. I stick closely to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping habits to help them settle in comfortably. For dog walking, I offer gentle, unrushed walks near the dog’s home or in the countryside—always putting their safety and happiness first. I only walk dogs in small groups (or solo if preferred) to ensure individual attention and calm companionship. With a nurturing, family-style approach and over 10 years of pet care experience, your dog is treated like part of the family—because they are.

About: I have always been relied on by friends & family to look after their dogs when needed. I have experience in all dogs, senior, puppies, and dogs that struggle with new people. I also have experience in administering medication, understanding behaviour, walking, feeding and grooming. I’m currently working part time, which means I have some free time through out my week! My shift pattern at work changes each week. I have been brought up around dogs my whole life, and I also have a big German Shepard myself who has anxiety around people. This means I have learned skills in how to create a safe environment for dogs and make them feel at ease ❤️

About: I have had cats for as long as I can remember, growing up with them from a very young age. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their behaviour, personalities, and individual needs. Currently, I have three cats of my own and two dogs, so caring for multiple cats and managing different temperaments is something I’m very comfortable with. I absolutely love cats—honestly, I’m a bit obsessed. I enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s playing with energetic kittens or giving gentle attention to older, more relaxed cats. I’m experienced with cats at all stages of life, from young, playful kittens to senior cats who may need a quieter, more attentive approach. I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for any cat in my care. I understand that every cat is different, and I’m more than happy to accommodate their individual routines, preferences, and needs—whether that means sticking to specific feeding schedules, administering basic care, or simply giving them the space or affection they require to feel at ease I have a fairly flexible routine that allows me to provide attentive care. During the week (Monday to Friday), I mostly work in the evenings, while on weekends I typically work in the mornings. Outside of these hours, I’m available and able to dedicate time to caring for pets. I’m also more than happy to be flexible and work around my schedule to suit specific needs, ensuring each cat receives the time, attention, and care they require. In my home, I make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. They’ll have a warm and cosy environment with access to food bowls, a water fountain, and soft cat beds with blankets—although they’re more than welcome to join me on the bed if that’s what they prefer. I provide clean litter trays (one upstairs and one downstairs) to keep things convenient and hygienic. There are plenty of toys and treats to keep them entertained and happy, as well as two cat trees for climbing, scratching, and relaxing. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I always aim to stick closely to their usual routine so they feel as settled as possible. I’ll follow all instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, or giving them space, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and grew up caring for pet rabbits, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing consistent care. While I haven’t owned a dog myself due to a family allergy, I regularly help care for my boyfriend’s dog, who feels like part of my own family and whom I have an amazing relationship with. I walk, feed, play with, and look after her whenever her family is away, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’m a uni student home for the summer with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I regularly help care for my boyfriend’s dog by walking, feeding, playing with, and looking after her when family members are away. I do my best to be accommodating and will make sure your pet receives the exercise, attention, and companionship they need while you’re away. Your doggie’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions to ensure they feel secure and cared for. Having grown up caring for rabbits and regularly looking after a dog, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and gentle care. I’ll provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands!

About: I recently obtained my Level 2 certificate in animal welfare which allows me to provide an extra level of care to your dog. My understanding of their needs is much greater since accomplishing this also due to the work experience in a busy dog day care, I was quickly brought up to speed managing up to 20 dogs! I have always been passionate about dogs ever since I became a young dog mum, I took my boarder collie dog training when I was 13 and created a fabulous bond which will last a million lifetimes! She lived well into her senior age of 18 where I met all her senior needs 🥰 Unfortunately last year she passed but I loved every minute of being a dog mum so now I'm using my passions to provide a safe and loving environment for other dogs to enjoy as a fun doggy holiday. I am always walking and hiking, I am also a self employed hair dresser which means I am often at home or not far from it. I have a huge secure garden, which is often referred to as a doggy's paradise! I live in a detached barn conversion with a 360 garden. I have an open plan house, with hard floors perfect for dogs. I live 2 minutes from a park and not far from Leicester centre.

Mango had the best time and was well looked after. We received updates and pictures and if dogs could smile Mango certainly was! The setup is perfect for dogs with a secure fence and perfect for dog walks. It made us feel a little less guilty for having a night away without her. We could relax knowing she was in safe hands. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking in the future if we are in the area.

Alice was great with Wilf. We had a meet and greet first, then Wilf stayed for an overnight. There's plenty of room, a very large garden and lots of land. Wilf had walks and played with Alice's dog. He came back very tired! We'll certainly be using Alice again.

About: From a very young age, I have always had a huge love for animals and have grown up surrounded by pets. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I am truly passionate about. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your dog, and I myself would find it difficult to trust anyone with my babies. I can assure you that every dog in my care will be treated with the same love, attention, and affection as my two Cockapoos Malibu & Cleo get. Their happiness, comfort, and safety will always be my top priority. Whether it’s walks, playing, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I will make sure your dog feels loved and well cared for always whilst they are away from you. If you wish I will send you daily pupdates please just let me know! All dogs in my care will have free roam of my house and garden, I have a dog flap so they can use the garden at any time and happy for them to be on the furniture and our bed! I am currently available to look after your dog or dogs whenever suits you. I am available Monday-Sunday for boarding or doggy day care. I have a secure fenced garden🌳 and 2 friendly fur babies to keep yours company🐶🐶 There will be lots of playing, fuss and love given. I am happy to walk your dog/dogs aswell if you wish.

Booked my dog in last minute with Kathryn, was explaining prior to him arriving that he’s a bit of a handful (excitable with lots of energy) and they were lovely people and very accommodating of this! Aswell as this, seems like he had a great time, pub, swimming, walks, being around other dogs, wouldn’t hesitate to book again, just not sure they’d have him! 😂😂

Steve and his family were delightful and gave Maimie a lovely ‘home from home’ stay. Steve couldn’t have been more helpful. He gave us confidence from the moment we met him and his lovely dog Laszlo. He was a great communicator and sent through lovely updates and pictures while we were away. Best of all he clearly loves and understands dogs. It’s so great to find someone who is clearly adored by his canine friends! Thanks Steve and family!

Beauden clearly had the best time with her and came back super happy (No kidding, he even cried in the car when we were driving off, making us think he’s found his new home!) We’ll definitely be using Georgie again and can’t recommend her enough! ☺️

About: I’m a dog lover who’s grown up with animals of all shapes and sizes. My parents owned a working farm, so animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve owned dogs from Mastiff to my current cheeky Sausage dog. With the years of hands on experience I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities, including those with the challenging behaviour. Whether it’s a long Country Park walk, play time or a simply cuddle on the sofa. I make sure every dog feels safe, happy and loved while in my care. Your dog’s or cat’s wellbeing is always my top priority. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time dog or cat sitting. Various times available , but can be discussed further before booking. If needed to look after a puppy or small dog , I have gated and fenced all around garden, so your pet’s will be safe and secured and my little friendly Dachshund to run around with.

I was struggling for dog care as my original dog care had cancelled on me last minute. I contacted jade and she was very quick and efficient on getting Rodney booked in and was happy to rearrange her days to accommodate Rodney for the 4 nights. I was anxious at first leaving Rodney with someone I hadn’t before but Jade was so good and reassuring right from the off and within 5 minutes of introducing Jade to Rodney I felt so reassured. She listened and made a list of everything me and Rodney do and his needs and wants. She sent me so many photos and videos every day and updated me even when I didn’t ask which was amazing so I could go away enjoy myself and knew Rodney was being well cared for. I collected Rodney and he didn’t want to leave when I came to collect him which is a reflection of the amazing care and fuss he had received. It was like Rodney was Jades own dog and she said how she loved having him. Going forward I will be definitely using Jades dog care service again and I’m sure Rodney will be excited at the thought of this as well. Keep up the good work jade from me and my Rods and thank you so much again ❤️!
