“This was Jaspers 2nd stay with Dominic. He was made to feel welcome as soon as he arrived. Him & Thunder seem at ease in each others company which is lovely to see. Dominic sent regular photos of his stay. I feel comfortable leaving him, knowing he is being well cared for. I think he missed Thunder when we got home! Thank you 🙂”
“I can’t recommend Abby enough. Abby recommended an overnight stay before our dog Duke’s booking, which I thought was a great idea, making sure everyone was comfortable. Duke stayed with Abby for 12 days, she kept in touch and also took Duke to a run free meadow and for beach walks, making him part of their family. When we collected Duke, he seemed happy and content and Abby had gone the extra mile by cleaning all his bedding before his return. I will definitely be using Abby again and recommending her to all my friends and family.”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“Bella just loves staying with Zena and James! It’s great to be able to go away on holiday knowing that she is so well cared for and that her “unique” needs are cared for. Thank you again for another successful stay ☺️”
“Thanks to Laura again! Bear had a wonderful holiday with Laura while I could go away for work relaxed in the knowledge that his every need was taken care of. Laura very kindly keeps me updated with Bears adventures while he is with her, which are always nice to see that he is totally taken care of! Thanks again Laura”
“Thank you Jan for taking such excellent care of our little lady. We feel so blessed to have found someone who is professional yet so caring and somehow instantly created a home from home for Lucrezia. Perfect! We look forward to her upcoming next stay.”
“Alex and her family looked after Sonny for three days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Sonny was clearly very happy, well looked after, and treated as part of the family. He enjoyed regular walks, including lovely walks in the forest, and it was wonderful to see him having such a great time. Alex was caring, reliable, and attentive to all of Sonny's needs. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care Sonny received and would highly recommend Alex and her family to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and trustworthy home for their pet.”
“New to this app and so anxious about leaving our little furry boys with someone new but then we found Paulina. What can i say.. A total angel.. The boys loved her and Sandor and with daily video and pic updates they made both myself and my partner feel totally at ease.. Totally recommend ...❤️ Five stars from us 👍”
“Such a kind and thoughtful woman. Our dog is allergic to Christmas trees, and Andrea was so accommodating, that she moved her tree away from any areas our dog had access too. We got the feeling that nothing was too much trouble for her, and we're very grateful that she could take in our dog at such short notice. We would definitely recommend Andrea and her beautiful dog.”
“My very nervous whippet Betty and bumptious terrier Carson, had a wonderful time here. First time and well settled in on sofa and on someone ‘s lap as shown in the photos sent to me with updates on their progress. I would have no concerns in recommending this very caring family home for dog sitting”
“Kobe had such a wonderful stay with Mat and his family. Prior to boarding we arranged a pre-stay meeting which was great and really helpful, from that initial meeting I knew Kobe would be very well looked after. Throughout his stay Mat kept us updated with Kobe's progress and sent lots of pictures which was so lovely. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Mat again for boarding, so long as the crazy pup is welcome ??. Thank you all so much for looking after our boy.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Kim for our 1 year old lexi, it was clear when we had a pre meet with Kim and her own 3 adorable dogs how much love and care lexi would receive. During her 5 day stay we were kept updated with pics etc, lexi was treated with walks in the woods and visits to the beach and lexi looked so happy enjoying her break, she was relaxed and had truly bonded with Kim and her dogs,Kim's love for dogs really stood out. I can highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Lexi will definitely be going back next time we go away. Once again thank you Kim Gary rasa and lexi.”
“Tilly has had a wonderful 24 hour stay with Thomas and has clearly enjoyed herself as she was reluctant to leave! This was her first time away from us and Thomas worked hard to make sure she felt at home, taking her on long walks, on the beach, the common and Coastal Path and playing games with her. The little videos and reassuring messages were much appreciated. Thank you Thomas, we’ll be back!”
“Abigayle was absolutely brilliant. She was sensitive to Bobby,s needs and was very good with him when we arrived and he took to her straight away. I can’t praise her enough, it’s so good to find someone that I can trust when the need arises. 10/10”
“We left our shepsky Koda in the care of Sylvia and her family while my family and I were on holiday for two weeks. I could see that Koda had a fantastic time through the pictures I was regularly sent. I received frequent updates and came home to a wagging tail. Thank you Sylvia.”
“Diane looked after our dog Rufus for the weekend in her home. We received regular updates and photos which we were very grateful for. It was a hot weekend and Diane was so considerate of this, ensuring that Rufus was only walked in the cooler mornings/evenings. Rufus returned so calm and happy we would definitely use Diane again and recommend her to others. Thanks Diane!”
“Highly recommend Carolyn 🤗 she gave our doggys a home from home but also a relaxing break for our crazy children! She was happy to go with our doggies routines and they came back very happy. Carolyn is also very good at sending pictures and updates! Thank you so much again Carolyn will defo use again x”
“Kika was made welcome and well cared for with Cherie. She got on well with everyone including the cats and Trixie the dog. We received regular updates and pictures of Kikas stay. We were very happy and would definitely leave Kika in Cheries care again.”
About: Myself and my partner have both grown up around dogs. We look after family and friends dogs as well as our 1 year 8 month old Beagle called Rolo who we welcomed in to our family from 8 weeks old. He is treated like a prince👑 as will your furbaby while staying with us. Any training you’re currently doing or want us to start can be carried on whilst you’re on holiday. I am currently on Maternity Leave so I am able to give all the love and attention to make your furbaby feel comfortable, safe and at home. My partner Tom is home of an evening and takes Rolo (our dog) for his evening walk and gives him plenty of loving fuss as he will with yours! We have a fenced garden and have an energetic Beagle to keep your furbaby company while they’re here on their holidays. Crate trained dogs only please! Also If that’s something we can help you with we are more than happy to help. Your furbaby must be ok with other dogs and young children/babies. No furbaby’s in the bed but welcome on the sofa for a lovely cuddle and cheeky post walk nap (if they would like)!

“Beth was brilliant, my 2 collies clearly loved her to bits. She was prompt, sent lots of photos and even ran the hoover round without being asked (the dogs had been on a beach walk and dropped sand everywhere) Will definitely be using her again!”
“Really helpful and friendly service. Gemma clearly knows cats and leaving instructions for her was simple and I felt confident that she knew exactly what she was doing. My cats were well looked after while I was away. Thank you Gemma”
“Zoe was fabulous with our Henry! He’s a very pampered cat.. and isn’t sure of new people. But he was very settled and happy with Zoe. A chilled calm and happy little man when we returned home after a couple of days away. Zoe sent me a few photos- which is super reassuring. She took great care of our home. We would not hesitate to ask for Zoe again, or recommend her!”
“Elizabeth is very sweet and very accomodating! She accepted to pick up and drop off our cat, as we do not drive! She also sent us pictures, which was great, as we never left our cat to other people before! Would definitely recommend =)”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since childhood, and my love for them has only grown over the years. I adore their unique personalities—every cat is different, and I take the time to understand their needs, whether they’re playful, shy, or independent.

Your cat’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like my own while you’re away 🐈💖🐈⬛

About: I've grown up with dogs + fish. Now I've had 2 beautiful cats for the last 3 years. My partner, who will also help, has grown up with cats/dogs/chickens and more! Between the 2 of us we have 2 dogs and 3 cats currently. I work from home full time in the golden triangle so can easily pop out to check in on pups or kittens😺. My partner works from her salon Tuesday - Friday in fakenham so she can also provide services there if need be. We have a big car so taking big dogs out for a great walk is easy to do! My garden is fenced but only 3ft. Therefore they can use it for toilets etc with me supervising but I'd aim to take your dogs out for nice walks (if they are able to).
About: I have looked after dogs and cats a few times over the years. I will treat your pet with a whole lot of love and provide them with whatever they need.

About: I have owned a Pomeranian and a springer spaniel. I have previous experience through caring for both. I am well equipped for dogs who are calm or a little naughty as my own were two rescue dogs and this alongside my experience with previous dog sitting has given me lots of ability with different types of dogs such as; Italian greyhounds,Russian toy terriers, Pomeranians, spaniels, terriers and poodle crosses :) I am happy to provide anything from just hours of playtime to long walks. I have lots of extra hours when not at work and so I have lots of time to spare and thought it would be fun to fill it caring for dogs while being able to help the owners out too. Currently work 9-5:30pm and have weekends free. Plus every third Wednesday off. I am happy to take care of pets after works and all day and evening etc on weekends. Dogs will have access to the house and garden and be supervised at all times - I usually just let them join me during my daily activities & then taking time out to play with them in the garden etc aswell as walks in the park.

“Cormac (w) Ulfada LOVED his first full visit with Paulina. The care he received was first class. Thank you both, I feel happy and confident he will be in your care for many years to come.”
About: I'm single and travel too often to have my own dog, which is why I'm keen to love and look after other people's pets on a part-time basis. Mostly experience of labs, retrievers and collies. Less into ankle-biters and barking dogs. Only friendly hounds, please. I'm a writer who works from home and would love to take your dog for walks around North Norfolk, or entertain them at my cottage. Also available to house/dog sit at yours. I have plenty of spare time all days of the week. I have a fenced garden, and the environment is safe and secure. My village is very quiet. Dogs are welcome on furniture or on bed. Keen to take your dog for walks along the beach. FYI my car may not be suitable for transporting your dog - if it can fit in a carrier, great, otherwise I might worry about the leather.
“We felt instantly at ease when we first met Alex to drop off our slightly nervous 1 year old cocker spaniel (Ronnie). We had regular updates throughout the evening which helped ease our worries - he fed him and took him out on a couple walks so he could do his business. He was also very accommodating to our needs as we needed to pick Ronnie up at the unsociable time of 11pm. Would definitely use Alex again if we are in the area and need help 👌”
“Amanda looked our thirteen year old Jack Russell cross for the day whilst we were at a wedding. I was a bit worried about leaving him with a dog sitter as it was his first time away from us in his thirteen years. However, I needn't have worried as Amanda looked after Jasper extremely well sending me updates on WhatsApp of all the doggy things he was getting up to. I can recommend Amanda 100% for dog care. Many thanks, Geoff P”
“We left our Coco for the day with Kim. I couldn't ask for more from her. Very warm welcoming, full of passion and care , constant updates throughout the day. I strongly recommend her and her services.”

Boarding dogs and having lots of fun on the way is my day to day, and i wouldn’t change it!

I am very bubbly and enjoy most of my time walking and training dogs so they can live a happy life- whatever you need to make you feel comfortable, just let me know. I have a car so i can take the dogs on adventures to big parks and lakes.

I am confident in providing medications if needed and can follow instructions well for any more complicated prescriptions. I currently work remotely from home, so will be around to keep your dog company throughout the day and to go on walks over lunch and at the end of the day!

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine & nothing beats a wagging tail! Having spent 14 years as a professional dog walker in Surrey, we moved to Norfolk for my husbands job and a slower pace of life, but for me something was missing, my four legged friends. Treating your dog as my own, providing the love, care and attention, that they deserve on their walks and stays. I am DBS checked & having my own Public Liability Insurance for dog walking & sitting. I will provide a safe, fun and sociable service. Sometimes life just stands in the way of providing the time and attention your beloved pet requires. So come walk, feed or play, I will be there. Having moved here recently and settling into our new life in the country, I am not currently working, so it would fit in perfectly with a school run in the mix. I have a large fenced garden, with plenty of space to explore, with a miniature dachshund who loves to socialise and play. I have 2 children, aged 10 & 11, who love dogs, the outdoors & exploring.
“Janice was an excellent communicator, super friendly and lovely with our dog. We would have no hesitation recommending her as a dog sitter to others and would Definitely book her again 😁”
“Flo and Elliot were extremely helpful and lovely to deal with. I had a bit of an emergency with only a day in advance to book a daycare and they were very accommodating and friendly. My doggy had a lovely time and clearly had a huge amount of attention and activities for the day. They sent me photos during the day which was very helpful as well. Would definitely recommend them and will be sending my doggy over for daycare in future.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies full of energy to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra love and patience. I understand the different needs that come with each stage of life, whether it’s helping with house training, keeping up with puppy zoomies, or providing gentle care and companionship for older pups. I always aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment so every dog feels right at home. I’m home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention throughout the day! Whether they need regular toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm presence nearby, I’m here to meet their needs. I’m flexible with routines and can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where pups can play and explore safely under supervision. We’re also lucky to have beautiful woodland walks nearby, perfect for sniff-filled strolls and a bit of outdoor adventure. Inside, my home is calm and dog-friendly—ideal for both energetic pups and those who prefer a cozy nap spot. You can feel confident knowing your dog will be cared for in a safe, loving environment.
About: I am delighted to join the Rover community as I want to share my love of and experience with dogs and help you with your lovely canine family members. I am very proud to describe myself as a mad dog lady: I have had my own dogs for over 24 years and grew up with dogs throughout my childhood. I have taken care of many dogs – from puppies to the elderly – and have experience in administering medication, should the need arise. We currently have a 6-year-old male (intact) Tibetan Terrier, Barney, having lost my beautiful Large Münsterlander nearly 4 years ago. We all miss having two dogs in the house (particularly Barney) and so I have decided to open my home to care for other dogs. We live in Ringland and have a large fully enclosed back garden and access to wonderful rural walks. My husband and I are retired but very active, and Barney gets at least two 40-minute walks a day (from the door – no need for car journeys), as well as lots of attention during the day. We would be delighted to host well-behaved, fully house trained, small to medium sized dogs (up to Red Setter, Golden Retriever, Labrador size) BUT they must get on with Barney. He is very friendly and very dog-motivated, but it will be necessary to have a meet and greet with Barney before agreeing terms. I would be happy to consider both boarding here and daycare (drop off here in Ringland). Please contact me with any enquiries. Thank you for taking the time to read this advert and I look forward to meeting your Canine family members. My husband and I are now fully retired and home with our pampered pooch much of the time, so an additional well-behaved dog would be welcome to our home. We have a large fully enclosed back garden and access from the doorstep to wonderful rural walks. I have experience in administering medication, if needed.
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets, ranging from small mammals and companion animals. I have cared for tortoises, goldfish, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, cats, and dogs of all ages and temperaments. My experience includes supporting a senior dog recovering from a stroke, ensuring their comfort, safety, and rehabilitation while maintaining their daily routine and health needs. I have also successfully bred and raised dogs, overseeing a mother through three litters of puppies and providing comprehensive care for all puppies until they were eight weeks old. This included monitoring their health, socialization, nutrition, and early training, ensuring each puppy developed strong foundations for lifelong well-being. My approach to pet care is attentive, compassionate, and tailored to each individual animal’s needs, whether it’s maintaining specialized enclosures for reptiles, ensuring proper nutrition and enrichment for small mammals, or providing exercise, stimulation, and medical support for dogs and cats. I am currently working from home, which allows me to build pet care naturally into my daily routine. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I provide feeding, fresh water, exercise, enrichment, grooming where needed, and regular health monitoring each day. I also ensure living areas are kept clean and that each animal receives plenty of love, attention, and positive interaction. My flexible schedule means I am able to adapt to the individual needs of each pet, whether that involves walks, playtime, administering medication if required, or simply providing companionship. Whether it's playful dogs, curious cats, or small mammals, every animal is given a safe, happy, and caring environment where their welfare is my priority. Your pets will feel right at home with me. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where animals can relax, play, and thrive. Each pet receives individual attention, regular feeding, exercise, and enrichment tailored to their needs. Whether it’s cuddles for cats, walks for dogs, or proper habitat care for small mammals, I ensure every pet is happy, secure, and well-cared for while in my home.
About: I've had a dog since I was a child, almost 4 years ago I got our Bedlington whippet Rufus. I am not a fan of aversive training methods. I work from home and have time to let the doggy out into the garden and play with them during my breaks. Doggies can play together or just chill next to me in the bed of my spare room/office. We have woods nearby where we go for walks every day. I can only sit potty trained non-destructive dogs that can get on with neutered male dog. I have a fenced garden, it is not large but big enough for some zoomies. Doggies can be on the sofa or beds and will be let out to the garden whenever ring the reception bell I have placed next to the door to the garden. Rufus has learnt to ring it and your pooch no doubt will too easily, if they howl at me I'll come running as well.
About: I’m an 18-year-old female living on a farm, with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I have two dogs of my own, including one who is quite nervous, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and tailoring walks to suit each dog’s individual needs. I’m also confident handling larger, energetic dogs—my spaniels certainly keep me on my toes! At home, I care for an indoor cat who loves plenty of affection, so I’m equally comfortable providing gentle, attentive care for cats. I’m looking to offer dog walking and pet sitting alongside my studies, combining my passion for animals with staying active, while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently studying radiology My availability’s are: Monday 3-5pm Tuesday 9-11am Wednesday 9am-5pm Thursday 2-5pm Friday 1-3pm Saturday & Sunday all day If you do have any requests for other times feel free to get in contact and i may be able to be flexible however this is my current time frames I focus on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent for every pet. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible and take note of any specific needs, whether that’s a nervous dog who needs a bit more patience or a high-energy dog that needs proper handling on walks. In an owner’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions around feeding, exercise, and care. I make sure pets are secure at all times—checking leads, gates, and surroundings. At my home on the farm, there’s plenty of space, but pets are always supervised in a safe environment, I am very aware of the ability dogs and cats may have as I’ve seen my puppy jump a big gate . Overall, I just aim to keep pets comfortable and well looked after while and for their owners to feel comfortable and confident their pets will be safe
About: Hi there ! Since my childhood I've had and looked after many animals all shapes and sizes. I consider myself a confident and caring individual who will look after your pet and their needs. I will try my best to be flexible, and am happy to discuss any particular requirements or preferences. I do have a friendly dog aged 2 of my own, so for any stays at my home address I would require a short meet and greet to make sure they get along first. I am currently working from home the majority of the week and do have time on weekends for bigger walks or longer drop in visits. I have a large fenced back garden for your dog to be safe and play in. Additionally to the grass is a rubber pieced section too.

But mainly to provide a service that allows Clients to ensure their pets are well looked after when other commitments call. I know how close to us our pets are so clear communication with my Clients on how their pet is doing would be key. I set up Bark 4 the Lead at the beginning of 2024. This is my full time Job so the pets that are boarded here have my full attention throughout the day and night. I offer dog walking which I complete in the morning for a couple of my Clients. I live in a very quiet area down a service track. The property is fenced in with no other pets in the household. I recommend clients to visit with their pets prior to booking so they feel comfortable and reassured.
About: I’m now a retired medic & work some hours around being a medic and PT however I also now live more between Thailand & UK. Basically when in UK I plan my own work & days so very flexible. NON SMOKER & I have owned & loved all types of rescue dogs ever since I was married in 1998. I can’t reiterate enough how much I love dogs & cats & can’t wait to sit for people. I now spend a lot of time in Thailand and will update calendars accordingly but if I’m free I still look after pets as normal and enjoy the experiences with them although I accept more short term stays as opposed to longer due to the other commitments I also have. Feel free to message me and we can go from there. Being retired I’m flexible and work pet sits around bank work that I do so there are no real restrictions. If I’m not working and available then happy to accept bookings. My house is safe and garden is enclosed with fence. Pets have the run of anywhere downstairs and can only go upstairs when it’s bedtime. During the day apart from normal walks around the area we willl head to Starbucks for doggy coffee and cream treats. If weather permits we might go to the river or sea.
“I am very overprotective with my 2 pups and was very anxious to let someone else see to them. Trafford however was amazing! He took my girls out on 3 walks today, he let me know when he finished each walk and double checked with me about things that he didn’t want to assume was okay! Very polite and updated me on my girls throughout the day. Highly recommend and will be using again!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, having grown up surrounded by pets. I’m confident handling different breeds, temperaments, and needs. I’ve regularly cared for pets within my local community, including feeding, walking, administering medication, and providing companionship. I’ve also worked part-time as a dog walker, further building my confidence with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. My experience has made me patient, attentive, and highly reliable when it comes to ensuring every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home so I’m always available and flexible to provide any services you may need. I’m happy to work completely around your schedule. I’m not able to look after pets in my own home however I can do house sitting and any other services you may require.
“Flo & Elliott we’re so wonderful and out me completely at ease after our meet & greet. Ronnie can be a little anxious and both were so fantastic with him and kept me updated during their visit. Highly recommend”
About: I've grown up with dogs + fish. Now I've had 2 beautiful cats for the last 3 years. My partner, who will also help, has grown up with cats/dogs/chickens and more! Between the 2 of us we have 2 dogs and 3 cats currently. I work from home full time in the golden triangle so can easily pop out to check in on pups or kittens😺. My partner works from her salon Tuesday - Friday in fakenham so she can also provide services there if need be. We have a big car so taking big dogs out for a great walk is easy to do! My garden is fenced but only 3ft. Therefore they can use it for toilets etc with me supervising but I'd aim to take your dogs out for nice walks (if they are able to).
“Jasmine sent me regular pup-dates of Bodie on his walk! she walked him for the full 30 minutes and made me aware when she arrived/left my home! will definitely be using Jasmines service again!”
About: I have been looking after animals my whole life. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs of different sizes and ages. I used to rescue stray animals so I have been in contact with lots of animals over the years. I currently have 3 dogs (2 large dogs and 1 small dog) and 3 cats which I love very much. I also have experience looking after birds (mainly chickens) and rabbits. An interesting fact about me: A few years ago, I got accepted into the VET school. But I dropped out shortly after to pursue another dream of mine. I started considering pet sitting during the pandemic. Because I now work 100% remotely, I felt I could do something else with my spare time. Since I love being around animals, I thought pet sitting might be something I could do as I have experience looking after animals, and I love spending time with them. I'm currently working from home, so I have the flexibility to organise my day the way I want. I have full flexibility over the weekend because I am off work, but I can manage pet sitting tasks during the week as well. I can only care for a pet at the owner's house. I would normally agree with the owner on a schedule. The last pet sittings I have done have been at the owner's house. They would usually let me know the dog's needs, how many times a day it needs feeding, walking etc. I was also able to provide medication. I was happy to look after the house, take out the bins and collect the post while the owners were gone. We also agreed I would update them with a daily picture of the dog and let them know how the day went. Owners have different requests so I always make sure I understand their needs before I get booked in and actually move into the house. So I try to adjust based on every pet sitting request I get.
About: Growing up with trained labradors has taught me lots about caring for dogs. As well behaved as they are, you will find them lounging on sofas and beds, living life comfortably. I know how to look after dogs of all ages. Currently, I work part-time as a lifeguard near where I live. I am able to walk dogs twice a day, feed whenever necessary and keep them company. My garden is large and fenced. Two friendly black labradors live inside and will welcome any other dog immediately. I have a crate too, if that is what you wish for!
About: I have looked after dogs and cats a few times over the years. I will treat your pet with a whole lot of love and provide them with whatever they need. I offer dog walks (/runs), house sits, boarding and pop-ins for feeds/ toilet. I am able to look after pets (dogs or cats) in my own house any night of the week. Dogs will be walked daily as much as needed. I also have an enclosed garden, and there are loads of beautiful walks in my local area to take them. I am also happy to drive to walk/ sit in your local area. Meet & Great - making sure my house is suitable for the pet. I will follow a list of requirements for the pet and make sure they receive the best pet care.
About: Growing up with dogs I have years of experience, I train dogs and puppies and having bred them my self as well so I know how to see to their needs , from the young lively pups to the older less energetic adults, each dog is different and all have different needs and care which i understand and love all the different challenges which they bring.My grown up child will say I care about dogs more than them lol.

“This was Jaspers 2nd stay with Dominic. He was made to feel welcome as soon as he arrived. Him & Thunder seem at ease in each others company which is lovely to see. Dominic sent regular photos of his stay. I feel comfortable leaving him, knowing he is being well cared for. I think he missed Thunder when we got home! Thank you 🙂”
“I can’t recommend Abby enough. Abby recommended an overnight stay before our dog Duke’s booking, which I thought was a great idea, making sure everyone was comfortable. Duke stayed with Abby for 12 days, she kept in touch and also took Duke to a run free meadow and for beach walks, making him part of their family. When we collected Duke, he seemed happy and content and Abby had gone the extra mile by cleaning all his bedding before his return. I will definitely be using Abby again and recommending her to all my friends and family.”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“Bella just loves staying with Zena and James! It’s great to be able to go away on holiday knowing that she is so well cared for and that her “unique” needs are cared for. Thank you again for another successful stay ☺️”
“Thanks to Laura again! Bear had a wonderful holiday with Laura while I could go away for work relaxed in the knowledge that his every need was taken care of. Laura very kindly keeps me updated with Bears adventures while he is with her, which are always nice to see that he is totally taken care of! Thanks again Laura”
“Thank you Jan for taking such excellent care of our little lady. We feel so blessed to have found someone who is professional yet so caring and somehow instantly created a home from home for Lucrezia. Perfect! We look forward to her upcoming next stay.”
“Alex and her family looked after Sonny for three days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Sonny was clearly very happy, well looked after, and treated as part of the family. He enjoyed regular walks, including lovely walks in the forest, and it was wonderful to see him having such a great time. Alex was caring, reliable, and attentive to all of Sonny's needs. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care Sonny received and would highly recommend Alex and her family to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and trustworthy home for their pet.”
“New to this app and so anxious about leaving our little furry boys with someone new but then we found Paulina. What can i say.. A total angel.. The boys loved her and Sandor and with daily video and pic updates they made both myself and my partner feel totally at ease.. Totally recommend ...❤️ Five stars from us 👍”
“Such a kind and thoughtful woman. Our dog is allergic to Christmas trees, and Andrea was so accommodating, that she moved her tree away from any areas our dog had access too. We got the feeling that nothing was too much trouble for her, and we're very grateful that she could take in our dog at such short notice. We would definitely recommend Andrea and her beautiful dog.”
“My very nervous whippet Betty and bumptious terrier Carson, had a wonderful time here. First time and well settled in on sofa and on someone ‘s lap as shown in the photos sent to me with updates on their progress. I would have no concerns in recommending this very caring family home for dog sitting”
“Kobe had such a wonderful stay with Mat and his family. Prior to boarding we arranged a pre-stay meeting which was great and really helpful, from that initial meeting I knew Kobe would be very well looked after. Throughout his stay Mat kept us updated with Kobe's progress and sent lots of pictures which was so lovely. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Mat again for boarding, so long as the crazy pup is welcome ??. Thank you all so much for looking after our boy.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Kim for our 1 year old lexi, it was clear when we had a pre meet with Kim and her own 3 adorable dogs how much love and care lexi would receive. During her 5 day stay we were kept updated with pics etc, lexi was treated with walks in the woods and visits to the beach and lexi looked so happy enjoying her break, she was relaxed and had truly bonded with Kim and her dogs,Kim's love for dogs really stood out. I can highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Lexi will definitely be going back next time we go away. Once again thank you Kim Gary rasa and lexi.”
“Tilly has had a wonderful 24 hour stay with Thomas and has clearly enjoyed herself as she was reluctant to leave! This was her first time away from us and Thomas worked hard to make sure she felt at home, taking her on long walks, on the beach, the common and Coastal Path and playing games with her. The little videos and reassuring messages were much appreciated. Thank you Thomas, we’ll be back!”
“Abigayle was absolutely brilliant. She was sensitive to Bobby,s needs and was very good with him when we arrived and he took to her straight away. I can’t praise her enough, it’s so good to find someone that I can trust when the need arises. 10/10”
“We left our shepsky Koda in the care of Sylvia and her family while my family and I were on holiday for two weeks. I could see that Koda had a fantastic time through the pictures I was regularly sent. I received frequent updates and came home to a wagging tail. Thank you Sylvia.”
“Kika was made welcome and well cared for with Cherie. She got on well with everyone including the cats and Trixie the dog. We received regular updates and pictures of Kikas stay. We were very happy and would definitely leave Kika in Cheries care again.”
“Buddy seemed to have a great time with Sophie. As he is a rescue dog he struggles when first meeting new people but he really seemed to settle in nicely. We will definitely be happy to leave him with Sophie again (that’s if she would have him 🤣!!)”
“Our labradoodle had a lovely holiday with Tracey. Loads of fun and exercise. Tracey kept us well up to date with pictures and quick responses to messages. I'm very happy to recommend Tracey!”
“Left our crazy spaniel with Kirsty for the first time the other day. Very happy! We were excited to be her first rover booking and we can safely say we Would definitely recommend! She went out of her way to make sure reign was comfortable and happy and got what he needed. She is a kind, bubbly, polite lady and you can tell how much she cares for the dogs. Again, would definitely reccomend and will be back again at some point, reign looks forward to it, thanks again Kirsty”
