“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”
“Shane has been amazing with our Shar Pei, Luna. He made both her and us welcome from the start with our initial home visit and then her subsequent stay with him. It was her first time staying away from us and her home and all the time we were away Shane messaged and sent photos and videos of Luna regularly and we have to say she certainly looked very happy, comfortable and like she wasn’t missing us too much!!🤣 Shane was happy for us to message him too to see how she was as he knew we were worried as it was her first time away from home! She can be quite picky with her food but Shane said she was eating well which was so reassuring too. When we went to collect her we knew how much she loved Shane because she kept going to him for cuddles too before we left 😊 She has settled in well back at home and that tells us that she obviously felt at home with him and that not much had changed for her - she more or less has the run of our house and she did with Shane too. We cannot recommend him highly enough. He’s a lovely caring guy who obviously loves the dogs he cares for and treats them as his own 😊 Shane’s little boy was brilliant with Luna too. We’ll definitely be booking Luna to stay again though we think we’re going to have to book well in advance!🤣 Thanks again guys you’ve been fab. Luna sends a big sloppy kiss!!🤣 Bev & Jon 😊😊”
“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.”
“Our high spirited lab puppy Rocky was very well looked after and had a great time with Juno. Paulo and Francisco were excellent- great communication and kindly sent us photos too which were very much appreciated. Rocky is really looking forward to his next stay.”
“Issy had a wonderful time with Shaun and his family.he was excellent with our energetic Staffie and we were really confident leaving her with him. They supported our routines as well as including her in their family life. He sent regular updates and the meet and greet beforehand was really beneficial and made us feel really comfortable that she would be well cared for. A very experienced family who looked after our Issy really well.10/10 would recommend.”

“Ernie had a lovely time with Gabriella. She kept me up to date while I was away and sent me pics and videos. She took him out on lovely walks and was very caring of him. Thanks so much!

“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.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.
“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.”
“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”
“Lloyd was so communicative and Rory had a great time with him and Hudson! Lots of walks to open fields and she came home happy and tuckered out! So so happy with Rory’s care during her time with Lloyd.”

“Sian was an absolute blessing to us whilst we were away. She was so lovely upon our first meeting and we knew straight away that our cat was in good hands. Her report cards were so detailed and the pictures that came with it gave us the peace of mind we needed! She clearly has such and kind and caring nature towards animals (and their parents). Being so wonderful and understanding meant that her responses were quick, and she went the extra mile to keep our houseplants alive whilst we were gone, as well as cleaning up any mess our cat had made. We will definitely be using her again and would recommend her in a heartbeat. Thank you!! ❤️🐾”
About: Hi, I’m Rhi! I’m a bubbly 32 year old who absolutely adores animals. My own family consists of one goofy Golden Retriever, two cats who firmly believe they run the house, and a leopard gecko, so I’m no stranger to a variety of personalities! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and honestly wouldn’t want it any other way. While I don’t have any formal animal care qualifications, I have years of hands-on experience caring for my own furry family members, as well as looking after friends’ and family’s pets whenever they’ve needed a helping hand. I’m passionate about giving them all the love, patience, respect and attention they need. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other small pets, whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering routines, or simply keeping them company with a calm and reassuring presence. One of my favourite things about pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s individual character. I understand that some pets are full of energy and love to play, while others are shy and need a little more time and space to feel comfortable. I have a calm and patient nature, so I’m always happy to let your pets set the pace and build trust in their own time. Equally, I’m more than happy to be bubbly, playful, and energetic for those who love attention, games, and adventures! As the owner of two mischievous cats, I know how important consistency is when it comes to routines. I’ll always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, rules, and training cues so they have a familiar and stress-free experience while you’re away. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. As a pet owner myself, I know how worrying it can be leaving our furry family when we are away, so understand how important it is to trust someone with your beautiful pets. I’ll always care for your pets with the same kindness, attention, and affection that I give my own.
“Christine was brilliant with my nervous older boy. She took the time to go through the feeding and cleaning information and took a real interest in Heathcliffe. I was surprised when she was able to send update photos with him sitting on her lap - I know she spent time building trust with him for this to be possible. Would definitely recommend. ”
About: I’m a 30 year old, Civil Servant who works from home with my orange fluff ball, Theo (who is a little sensation on TikTok (orangefloofs) check him out!!) I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, that covers a whole lot of personalities and quirks 🤪. I come from a family of huge animal lovers and I can’t remember a time without a cat which means I have a lot of experience with all kinds of ages, dietary requirements, medications and all the other fun stuff!
“Georgia was fantastic with our dog, Suggsy. She sent lots of photos and updates, and we always felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Suggsy was happy and well cared for, and we’d gladly use Georgia again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello! I a veterinary nurse working in Norfolk. I moved back to Norwich to be closer to family. I adore animals and would be with them 24/7 if I could 🥰 I am here to give cuddles and give the best care to your pets! Due to having Veterinary experience, I have knowledge of animal first aid and how to accommodate specific health conditions during my time with them. I am able to administer mediation effectively. I understand some degree of animal behaviour but wish to further this in the future. I honestly do believe, cats make the world a better place!
“10/10 again :) our girls are certainly becoming a fan, they seem so relaxed when we return which is lovely as they can get easily stressed. Great communication each day which puts us at ease, thank you so much and we will be rebooking when we next go away! ”
About: I have grown up with pets all my life mainly dogs, of all sizes. We have always had a family dog along with other pets like cats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits and more. My mum and brother currently own Pomeranians which came from the same litter and a rescue chihuahua. I love being outside and walking in the woods, and fields surrounding my area so there would be plenty of time for them to be outside. I am currently taking a break from my job so I am home full time apart from one hour a day I would go to the gym. I have a two bedroom house in a quiet location in attleborough with a decent size enclosed garden for them to go to the toilet as regular as they need. I am currently taking a break from work so I spend a lot of time at home and it walking. I spend about an hour-2 a day in the gym. Other than that I am cooking or at home. I have a two bedroom house which they are free to explore freely, a large garden which has a secure fence and gate. I live alone and rarely have visitors so they would feel comfortable once settled.
About: I love animals and always have from a young age, and it is a great passion of mine to provide care for pets! From a young age we had dogs, cats, budgies, fish, snails, hamsters any pets possible I made my parents get them, therefore no animal is too small and I have experience looking after the majority of them! However the main pet we have always had is a dog which is useful for me, as I love to walk and walking the dog is a great way to just relax from the other stresses, currently we have a little black Cocker Spaniel who is incredibly good with any other dogs with a very good temperament, I am more than happy for her to meet your dog for doggy day care or walks. But equally if you prefer she can stay at home, but doggy day-care they may come in contact with one and other, although steps will be taken to prevent this if you prefer Pet care is my full time job so provided I have no other bookings I will be able to provide any of my regular services you might need. Secure front garden, dogs will always be kept an eye on when outside. If house sitting I will always ask that the garden is secure and take steps to make sure all information is known before the booking starts to keep you pets safe and happy 😊
“We have two new rescues and we asked Brett to pop in and keep them company while we were away for the day. Brett came over the day before to meet the girls - Jess is still very anxious and slowly settling in, but Brett was very calm and comforting with her. He was very responsive and accommodating through the whole process, and provided a lot of reassurance for us that they were in safe hands while we were away. Thanks Brett!!”

About: I grew up with dogs since I was 8. I've been dog sitting for several breeds for the last 6 years.

“Emma and Mike were fantastic with Bruno this week. They were able to help with early drop off and later pick ups for day care as we both work long shifts. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures of Bruno and what he had been doing. He came back happy and relaxed every day. We have already booked for the next dates we need and would have no issue recommending to friends who need someone to look after their dog.”
About: I have the patience for nervous or older dogs, and my teammate Rudy brings the energy for the more boisterous ones. I've always loved dogs, and in 2021 I adopted a little street terrier. He was a nervous little guy, but with patience and love, he's finally found his happy place. I'm free for morning and evening walks, and lunchtime popins in the Attleborough/Diss/Long Stratton area. I walk every day except Wednesdays, please contact me for times and areas. I have a small cottage with a fenced garden suitable for smaller furry friends. And Rudy loves visitors, especially if they like to play chase.

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 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.
“I was a bit anxious when i first left Bob (springer spaniel) with Gemma for day care as he has never been left before. However I have left him twice now and wouldn't hesitate in using her services again. I imagine having two spaniels to look after is quite exhausting (& fun!) but everything went to plan and Bob & Monty got along well. Gemma is very professional, caring and gives regular updates and photos which proved Bob had a great time and put me at ease! Thank you 😊”
“Hayley was amazing looking after my pooch Marsha, she’s a rescue and can be quite nervous when I leave her, Hayley made her feel so loved and took great care of Marsha. As soon as we got to Hayley’s house Marsha just settled right in with her tail wagging, I knew it was going to be perfect day for Marsha. Marsha can’t wait to see you again tomorrow, thank you ❤️”
About: I started by looking after a few dogs on borrow my doggy and as soon as my partner and I bought a house - a cat and a dog were the next additions!

About: I’ve had two cats for four years now and they are house cats , I love spending time with them. I have previously owned a staffy (dog) named daisy who I regularly took out for walks and fed. I myself go on walks daily so I would love to help someone out if their pets need walking :) I think it’s very important for pets to receive some good playtime and loving which I would love to provide for them when the owner is unable to do so. I will walk pets in evenings/weekends depending on the size and activity level of the pet. I am happy to look after cats at my home too and invest in toys for them. I have now been dog sitting on Rover for 5 years and have enjoyed dog sitting so much. I started out as a uni student but now I am now a Secondary school Geography teacher, so will be available any school holidays as well as evenings and weekends. I have a lot of compassion and love for cats and dogs. I love spending time with them and playing with them, feeding them etc. It’s a very fulfilling job for me. I have a fenced garden, with a spacious living room for comfort. I always try and arrange a meet and greet first so that the pets are familiar with me before the service

I’ve spent my whole life around animals and honestly wouldn’t want it any other way.

One of my favourite things about pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s individual character. I understand that some pets are full of energy and love to play, while others are shy and need a little more time and space to feel comfortable. I have a calm and patient nature, so I’m always happy to let your pets set the pace and build trust in their own time. Equally, I’m more than happy to be silly, playful, and energetic for those who love attention, games, and adventures! As the owner of an adolescent Golden Retriever, I know how important consistency is when it comes to training and routines. I’ll always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, rules, and training cues so they have a familiar and stress-free experience while you’re away. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. As a pet owner myself, I know how worrying it can be leaving our furry family when we are away, so understand how important it is to trust someone with your beautiful pets. I’ll always care for your pets with the same kindness, attention, and affection that I give my own. I’m very fortunate that my job allows me to be quite flexible with my hours, so I can be available and travel easily most of the time, as I work remotely. I don’t have many commitments other than my own pets who can be looked after by my partner. This leaves me free to give your furry family member plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I know every pet is different, it’s what I love about them! So I try to care for them in a way that suits them best. If they’re full of energy, I’m happy to keep them entertained with walks, playtime, and enrichment games. If they’re a little nervous or need some space, I’m equally happy to take things slowly and let them come to me in their own time. I’m also happy to stick to any routines you’ve worked hard to put in place (I know how hard this can be) whether that’s crate training, meal times, training cues, or little things that help them feel settled and secure in their environment. One thing you can definitely expect from me is updates! I know how much I miss my own pets when I’m away, so I’ll make sure you’re kept in the loop with messages, photos, and videos. If you’re anything like me, 90% of my camera roll is of my furry family.
“Isobel looks after and walks our little Jack Russell on occasions. She is very knowledgeable about the care of dogs. Pickle is always happy to see her. Would highly recommend”
About: With over five years of experience in looking after all kinds of animals as well as growing up in a house full of animals I am now available to look after furry friends whilst back home from university. Whilst my experience is mainly in the realms of dogs, cats, horses, hamsters and guinea pigs I have also looked after rabbits, birds and even a tortoise! I have had plenty of work experience through my degree in veterinary practices allowing me to handle medications as needed and keep an eye on any more senior animals as well, with which I aim to give owners some peace of mind as I completely understand how daunting it can feel when a pet has health issues and to trust someone else to monitor these. I currently work an online job for my university student union, which is part time. This means I have plenty of time to check in on furry friends and keep ontop of their daily schedules! Other than that I would ideally be going to the gym however if one of your furry friends needs 24/7 care it goes without saying that it would always be the priority! I will be able to take your dog out and about to local dog parks or for quieter walks through the lovely Norfolk countryside! With a car and full clean driving licence I would be more than happy to take your pets to safe local areas or walk them from your home. Which ever you would prefer and they would be more comfortable with!
About: I’ve had dogs in my home my entire life and have always been actively involved in their daily care. Growing up with dogs taught me not just how to love them, but how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful or prefers quiet cuddles, I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every dog like part of the family. I work full-time, but my hours are slightly flexible and depending on location I am able to leave at lunch for a drop-in, my weekends are also very flexible. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I understand that pets feel safest when their schedule stays familiar, so I carefully follow feeding times and any specific care guidelines provided.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life - so I absolutely love them! Very flexible, happy to do short notice bookings for drop ins, dog walking, or all day care. Experienced in oral and injected medication. Will look after your lovely pets just like I do my own. I am retired so have plenty of time to look after your pets. I am flexible around timings and can do short-notice bookings. I love cats and dogs so will look after your pet just like I do my own. Happy to follow any requirements you have and am experienced in oral and injected medication. I’ll keep your pet safe, sound, happy and exercised. I’ll contact you or come and visit beforehand to understand how you want your pet cared for and I’ll send regular updates during the day.
About: I have taken care of friend’s dogs for years and had the joy of getting my own last year. I’ve also tried to be helpful to local organisations when I can. I’m currently working self employed so I’m happy to discuss days. Plus free all day on Mondays and Tuesdays. Looking forward to working with owners on a schedule that works best for us both. I have a fenced yard for my dog Eko at home and a big enough garden for her to run around in. I won’t be taking dog’s back to my house but wanted to let you know the situation there.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats of every age and breeds. Walking, feeding, bathing and giving medication to neighbours, friends and families pets. I’ve looked after large and small breeds as well elderly dogs with added needs such as help walking and medication. I have experience with reptiles as well as fish if needed. I’m currently doing my a-levels but done on the 8th of June and from there available to work at any time, am able to provide transport as well. I have a fenced yard and lots of fields around to go on walks. I have three other dogs to keep your pet company in the day, I currently aren’t employed so able to spend all day with your pet.
About: Having always had dogs, I’ve looked after others during travelling and for friends. Treating them like my own, they’d be in safe hands whilst you’re away from home. Having dog sat for a variety of dogs with a variety of needs, rest assured your dog will have lots of fun with me! I’m currently working part-time and trying to build my own business. I like to be an active individual so walking and taking care of other dogs will bring joy to my days when I’m not busy working. I can easily care for your dog in your home with a clear routine (if you have one). I ensure that all doors, outdoor gates are secure to ensure your dogs safety.
About: I have grown up with pets all my life mainly dogs, of all sizes. We have always had a family dog along with other pets like cats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits and more. My mum and brother currently own Pomeranians which came from the same litter and a rescue chihuahua. I love being outside and walking in the woods, and fields surrounding my area so there would be plenty of time for them to be outside. I am currently taking a break from my job so I am home full time apart from one hour a day I would go to the gym. I have a two bedroom house in a quiet location in attleborough with a decent size enclosed garden for them to go to the toilet as regular as they need. I am currently taking a break from work so I spend a lot of time at home and it walking. I spend about an hour-2 a day in the gym. Other than that I am cooking or at home. I have a two bedroom house which they are free to explore freely, a large garden which has a secure fence and gate. I live alone and rarely have visitors so they would feel comfortable once settled.
About: I love animals and always have from a young age, and it is a great passion of mine to provide care for pets! From a young age we had dogs, cats, budgies, fish, snails, hamsters any pets possible I made my parents get them, therefore no animal is too small and I have experience looking after the majority of them! However the main pet we have always had is a dog which is useful for me, as I love to walk and walking the dog is a great way to just relax from the other stresses, currently we have a little black Cocker Spaniel who is incredibly good with any other dogs with a very good temperament, I am more than happy for her to meet your dog for doggy day care or walks. But equally if you prefer she can stay at home, but doggy day-care they may come in contact with one and other, although steps will be taken to prevent this if you prefer Pet care is my full time job so provided I have no other bookings I will be able to provide any of my regular services you might need. Secure front garden, dogs will always be kept an eye on when outside. If house sitting I will always ask that the garden is secure and take steps to make sure all information is known before the booking starts to keep you pets safe and happy 😊
About: Hello! I am a veterinary nurse currently working in kings Lynn. Here to help and have animal cuddles! Due to having Veterinary experience, I have knowledge of animal first aid and how to accommodate specific health conditions during my time with them. I am able to administer mediation effectively. I understand some degree of animal behaviour but wish to further this in the future. I honestly do believe, dogs make the world a better place! I am currently 3 days a week in king Lynn as a veterinary nurse. I am happy to work around shifts and find days/hours that suit both people. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be able to care for any pets at my residence. Hopefully would be able to in the future when I have my own place.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, and cats, since the young age of 6. I am trustworthy, gentle and reliable and will love your pet like they’re my own. I have taken care of family and friends dogs as well as my own and love more than anything to make every fluffy friend feel loved and safe. I currently work weekdays at a local cattery, with a large 4 hour break in between from 12-4 which I would love to fill with dog walks and drop-ins! I am free most weekends for house stays for the more nervous pups who feel safest in their own environments. However I cannot have other dogs at my own home at this time as I have a dog and two cats of my own who are not so open with sharing their space. I am happy to answer as many questions as needed in order for you to feel comfortable with me looking after your furry friend in your own home, as well as ensuring the routes for dog walks that I take will be safe. If you would prefer to have your dog on a lead whilst on walks that is completely fine and if your dog is not comfortable with walking on country roads I will avoid them in the routes I choose to take!
About: I love dogs! Your best friend will be safe and feel right at home!

Im often available to provide cover on short notice too. Feel free to get in touch and discuss your needs. My house has completely fenced and locked rear garden, so dogs are safe to come in and out as they please. Walks and belly rubs will of course also be included and during the day we'll visit nearby open fields, the park, maybe even the beach or forest.

I currently have my own 4 month old kitten, called Wrathion, the black prince (my partner named him, not me!) I’m happy caring for kittens and puppies as well as older cats and dogs! I am currently in maternity leave, so am not taking any booking until the end of September. I’m happy to pop in as much or as little as you need. I’ve recently moved to Wymondham but can drive, so am able to travel within a 10 miles radius. I understand it can be scary to leave your animals in the care of a stranger, so I am more than happy to come and meet your pets before I look after them. I will give them as much or as little fuss as they want. I’m also happy send you updates via WhatsApp.

“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”
“Shane has been amazing with our Shar Pei, Luna. He made both her and us welcome from the start with our initial home visit and then her subsequent stay with him. It was her first time staying away from us and her home and all the time we were away Shane messaged and sent photos and videos of Luna regularly and we have to say she certainly looked very happy, comfortable and like she wasn’t missing us too much!!🤣 Shane was happy for us to message him too to see how she was as he knew we were worried as it was her first time away from home! She can be quite picky with her food but Shane said she was eating well which was so reassuring too. When we went to collect her we knew how much she loved Shane because she kept going to him for cuddles too before we left 😊 She has settled in well back at home and that tells us that she obviously felt at home with him and that not much had changed for her - she more or less has the run of our house and she did with Shane too. We cannot recommend him highly enough. He’s a lovely caring guy who obviously loves the dogs he cares for and treats them as his own 😊 Shane’s little boy was brilliant with Luna too. We’ll definitely be booking Luna to stay again though we think we’re going to have to book well in advance!🤣 Thanks again guys you’ve been fab. Luna sends a big sloppy kiss!!🤣 Bev & Jon 😊😊”
“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.”
“Our high spirited lab puppy Rocky was very well looked after and had a great time with Juno. Paulo and Francisco were excellent- great communication and kindly sent us photos too which were very much appreciated. Rocky is really looking forward to his next stay.”
“Issy had a wonderful time with Shaun and his family.he was excellent with our energetic Staffie and we were really confident leaving her with him. They supported our routines as well as including her in their family life. He sent regular updates and the meet and greet beforehand was really beneficial and made us feel really comfortable that she would be well cared for. A very experienced family who looked after our Issy really well.10/10 would recommend.”

I got sent plenty of photos and Winnie was very loved and looked after by the family. I highly recommend Louise to look after your furry loved ones and thank you again!”
“Ernie had a great time with Lisa again. He’s excited in the car as soon as we get to the village. He had a nice trip to the beach and he was so comfy on the sofa when I arrived to pick him he didn’t even notice I was there lol.”
“Ernie had a lovely time with Gabriella. She kept me up to date while I was away and sent me pics and videos. She took him out on lovely walks and was very caring of him. Thanks so much! Ernie can be nervous around other dogs, she was very considerate of this too which put my mind at ease. Would 100% recommend. Thank you!”
“Everything went really well from start to finish with Dee. Doug was so happy living with his new buddy Ron that I'm not sure if he really wanted to come home. I would highly recommend.”
“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.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.
“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.”
“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”
“Lloyd was so communicative and Rory had a great time with him and Hudson! Lots of walks to open fields and she came home happy and tuckered out! So so happy with Rory’s care during her time with Lloyd.”
“Pinar was quick to respond, easy to get Toby booked in. Her communication throughout Toby's stay was great, we got lots of photos which was reassuring for us. Toby seemed perfectly content when we picked him up, thoroughly happy as were we. We would definitely recommend and if we go away again will definitely be rebooking.”
“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.”
“Our border terrier Clover had a great time with Lillia. She sent us lots of photos showing Clover relaxed and happy. The family all listened to our explaining Clovers needs and foibles and I would definitely leave Clover with Lillia again. Highly recommended.”
