“Highly recommend Heidi, my dog Ernie is usually very nervous but took to her straight away and I felt happy to leave him, lots of photos and updates made me even more reassured, will be taking him back next week when we go on holiday, Ernie settled in very quickly which surprised me but it’s credit to Heidi for sure”
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”
“Mat, Cathy and the girls are just wonderful, this is now our 4th time booking him in here. Luther has the best time ever and I know he’s being cared for, settled and happy. When we dropped him off he jumped straight on Cathy’s lap - it was lovely to see.”

“Lisa was calm and confident with our Border terrier Clover. From the photos she sent I could see Clover had a wonderful time with her. I’m very grateful her for her professional and gentle care. I have no hesitation in recommending Lisa and will certainly use her again.”
“Highly recommend! my dog had the most amazing weekend and won’t be going anywhere else in future only to Bonnie she updated me with constant photos day and night, I’m very pleased I had a very happy dog x”
“Alison and her family were absolutely amazing with my doggo Daisy! She is nervous around new people and they made the extra effort to meet her and understand her before her stay! Throughout the whole trip I received so many photos of her amazing walks and care! I really could not recommend Alison more and will definitely be booking Daisy in for a staycation again :)”
“So pleased with Jasmine and how she looked after Athena! It was her first time staying with Jasmine and it was clear that she was a very happy girl when we picked her up and was looking after! Jasmine was very sweet and professional and provided us with updates about what they were up to! Will definitely use Jasmine again for longer stays when we are next away. Thank you! 😊”
“My first time having dog sitters look after my 14 year old puggle. I fell on my feet, Ann and Jacques were welcoming, thoughtful, kind and that was just to me when I first met them. They were so genuine and clearly love dogs. They enjoyed Snoop and all his quirks, and I had zero concerns when leaving him with them. I got fab pics and notes sent to me. He had the best holiday. I won’t hesitate using them both again. He was 100% spoilt with love and attention. Oh and asking me to bring ‘all’ his beds etc and literally everything to make him happy made me know I had chosen the right people. They were just so accommodating. I’m just worried they will be booked up next time I need them! ♥️”
“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”
“Willow had a wonderful week with Gemma and her family in their lovely home. She was welcomed as one of family and became best buddies with their own gorgeous dog Indie. Plenty of walks and Gemma listened to what can make Willow anxious to make her stay happy. I would most certainly recommend Gemma and her family as a host for your four legged friend.... They will be well cared for, and have as much fun on their holiday as you will on yours”
“Excellent communication, regular updates and photos/videos of mac. He looks like he’s had the best time, thoroughly spoilt. Thank you so much for looking after him, would definitely recommend x”
About: I have been lucky enough to have grown up with dogs and have always had a four legged companion. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around dogs has taught me how to understand their individual needs and make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I provide a calm, caring, and reliable environment where every dog is treated like part of the family. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a quiet place to relax, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I'm comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, and sticking to your dog's usual routine to help them feel at home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine,as I have fury friends of my own. As a part-time shift worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. On my days off, I'm home for most of the day, and even on workdays I carefully plan my schedule to ensure dogs receive regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to stick to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. There are lovely walks around the area I live and I enjoy planning new adventures for my fury friends. I follow each pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions provided by their owner. I have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under my supervision. Inside, they'll have plenty of space to relax and will be treated like part of the family, with lots of attention, affection, and companionship.
“. Being so far away and for 3 weeks, we knew we didn’t have to worry about him as Sylvia is a kind and caring dog person. She sent us photos of him on his walks and updates of his activity with her. Sylvia followed the instructions about his diet I think from her comments that they really bonded over the spell that he was there. I would definitely leave him with her again and I plan to do so.”
“Charlotte was so amazing with my dog, Betty. Really took care to understand her and make sure she was happy and safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Charlotte again. Thank you so much Charlotte! X”
“Our Westie puppy Rocky was so well looked after by Pinar and her family that I’m not sure he wanted to come home 🤣 We would definitely recommend Pinar as we had great communication during our week away, including photos and videos which was lovely and reassuring to us and enabled us to have a good holiday. We will be letting Pinar look after Rocky when we go on holiday next year, so can’t praise her enough.”
“Buffy is 14 years old, quite frail and on medication so needed to find someone nice and kind who would look after her. Meg absolutely fitted the bill! Nothing was too much trouble, she was wonderful with Buffy, who does have a few problems. I have no hesitation at all, in recommending Meg.”
“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!”
“Our dogs are 11 & 13 yrs old and never stayed with anyone other than family before so we were anxious about how they would be. Ruth is amazing, so caring and kept in contact with us through messages and photos as she understood how we felt, totally put our minds at rest. I would definitely recommend Ruth, we will re-book with her again in the future It was a home from home experience for them, totally pampered.”

I currently share a three-year-old British Shorthair cat, so I understand how important it is to have a trusted, loving person caring for your pet while you're away. I treat every animal in my care with the same love and attention I give my own. My background in nursing means I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure, caring and compassionate. I've provided pet and house sitting, and drop in services in both Australia and the UK, and I pride myself on being clean, tidy, conscientious, and respectful of other people's homes.

About: I've shared my life with cats for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for cats with a range of ages, personalities and needs. Growing up, our family always had cats, and over the years I've helped care for everything from newborn kittens to senior cats. I've helped to deliver kittens and have hands-on experience supporting cats with additional health needs. One of our kittens was born with hydrocephalus, and we provided him with dedicated care and support throughout his life. This experience taught me patience, compassion and the importance of understanding that every cat is unique. As a previous cat owner, I understand feline behaviour, body language, routines and the importance of allowing cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Whether your cat is confident and sociable or shy and independent, I will always respect their personality and care for them at their own pace. These days, I love helping cat owners enjoy time away from home knowing their cats are being cared for by someone who genuinely understands and appreciates them. Alongside caring for pets, I also take pride in looking after homes, ensuring owners return to a happy cat and a well cared for space.
About: Having had a 12 month break from sitting to care for my own 21 year old dog, I am now ready to start sitting again. I have always had pets in my life since childhood. These have included dogs, cats and horses. I am confident with all types of animals, big and small, and do not get flustered coping with multiple animals. I am calm, caring and affectionate and love walking. I am recently retired and am available anytime for short or for longer term pet sitting at your home as required. I am happy to do multiple animals and other pets as well as dogs. I am happy to fit in with your needs for your pet at your home. I have total respect for other people’s homes and will always leave them as I found them. I will always prioritise the care of your pets when staying in your home and will reassure you that all is well. I always offer a meet and greet.
“Chloe was brilliant. She did everything we asked and took great care of our cat whilst we were away making sure he was fed and watered, his litter tray was kept clean and that he received daily medication. She sent regular updates and pictures to make sure we knew how things we were going and meant that we didn't have to worry while we were away. I would definitely use Chloe again.”
About: Hello, my name is Belle. I am 28 years old, and have lived in Norwich for over 10 years now. I have recently left teaching after 5 years as a primary school teacher. I love animals and always have, I’ve had cats my whole life, have fostered dozens of cats, and have volunteered in animal shelters and rescue centres since I was a teenager. I have cat-sit for many neighbours and friends over the years. Additionally, I currently have two lovely rescue cats of my own: adorable but completely bonkers.
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Gina to care for my cat, and I couldn't be happier with the level of care and professionalism she provided. Gina was incredibly thorough in gathering all the necessary information about my cat - from feeding preferences and habits to medical needs and emergency contact details. This attention to detail assured me that my furry companion would be well taken care of during my absence. During their visits, I received daily updates with pictures of my cat, showing that she not only fulfilled their basic responsibilities but went above and beyond to provide my pet with love, attention, and personalized care. It was evident from the photos that my cat was happy, relaxed, and comfortable in their presence. In conclusion, if you're searching for a cat sitter who will not only meet your pet's basic needs but also foster a loving and comfortable environment, look no further than Gina. Her exceptional services, attention to detail, and genuine love for cats have earned my utmost trust and gratitude. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of professional, compassionate, and reliable cat sitting services.”
“Thank you Liv for standing in at very short notice and doing a wonderful job of looking after the cats and chickens...they were all very happy when we came home...will definetly be in touch again - Thanks so much!”
“I felt confident that my cats, and house, was in capable, caring hands whilst I was away for a long weekend. When I returned home all was well, and my cats had clearly been well cared for. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Alex if you are considering having someone stay in your house to look after your pets whilst you are away.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities and needs. Throughout my life I have looked after both my own cats and those of family, friends and clients, providing attentive and loving care in a safe and calm environment. My background in animal care includes studying at the Royal Veterinary College and achieving a Level 3 qualification in Animal Management. This has given me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour and welfare, allowing me to provide knowledgeable and compassionate care. I am confident with feeding routines, administering oral medications when required, cleaning litter trays, grooming and ensuring cats receive plenty of enrichment, play and affection while respecting their individual boundaries. I understand that every cat is unique. Some enjoy lots of interaction, while others prefer a quieter approach, and I adapt my care to suit each cat’s temperament. I am experienced in recognising signs of stress, illness or behavioural changes and will always keep owners updated with regular messages, photos and videos. Whether your cat is energetic and playful, elderly and needing extra support, or simply enjoys a comfortable routine, I will care for them as if they were my own.
About: [IMPORTANT TO NOTE: I will be unavailable for bookings in Norwich from 25th August 2026, as I am moving back to Cheltenham. I will be available for bookings in Cheltenham from 15th September 2026]. I’ve taken care of cats since I was 16. I love cats of all breeds and natures; I’m more than used to unhooking adventurous kittens from curtain fabrics! I have experience with both kittens and senior cats, and can give oral medication when needed. I live in university accommodation so can only provide care for your cat in your home at the moment. I really miss having cats around, as I’m doing a Master’s degree, and would love to spend some time with your cat!
“Jackie was great with our kitten Mish, she sent lots of pics and even offered and went out to get some dry food for us as we’d run out whilst we were away! She also did some hoovering and made the bed up before leaving which was so appreciated and saved us some time when we came back from holiday all tired out.”

“We hadn't left our Sprocker Spaniel doggies with anyone until we found Heidi......she was relaxed, they were relaxed and we were relaxed. They had a lovely time and we will be leaving them back with Heidi another time to be cared for, loved and spoiled!!!”
About: We’re lifelong dog lovers and take a considered, personal approach so each dog receives plenty of individual attention. My husband and I both work from home full time, meaning dogs in our care are rarely left alone and enjoy consistent company throughout the day. During the week, our home is particularly calm as our two children (aged 6 and 8) are at school. We share our home with our own 3-year-old dog, who is relaxed, friendly, and well socialised with other dogs. Our children have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful, understanding when a dog needs space. We are best suited to dogs who are comfortable in a family environment and around children. Our home is spacious, with several quiet areas where dogs can rest if they prefer their own space, as well as the option to stay close to us in our home office. We also have a secure, fully fenced garden for safe outdoor time. Sleeping arrangements are flexible and tailored to your dog’s usual routine. We follow a calm, consistent daily routine, including at least one walk a day, and we’re happy to maintain your dog’s normal feeding, medication, and care. Ahead of booking, we ask owners to share any special requirements so we can provide thoughtful, personalised care. We’re always happy to arrange a meet and greet to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. We both work from home full time with our own rescue dog who we take for daily walks, so always looking for more furry company! As already mentioned, you can rest assured your dog is in safe hands - our garden is fully fenced. We can also go for on-lead walks for your peace of mind.
“Duggie loved his stay with Charlotte. After an initial visit, we were very confident that it would work out well. Charlotte is very warm, friendly and knowledgeable about dogs and Duggie was comfortable with her immediately. Everything in Charlotte’s home and garden is set up to be dog friendly and she was very flexible about delivery and pick up times. During his stay, Charlotte sent me regular updates and pictures- he was clearly having a fab time. Duggie came home a very chilled and happy boy and a lovely touch was that Charlotte sent him home with a little diary of his holiday with her. We will definitely send Duggie to Charlotte again in future and would recommend her very highly.”

“Lisa was great with our two rescue greyhounds Sonny and Ava, especially patient and kind even with big boy Sonny charging around all over her house! I picked them up very relaxed and happy. 10/10 great dogsitter. Thanks Lisa!”
“Django had the best time with Pinar and her family! Had some lovely updates and photos. He slept the best I think he’s ever slept after daycare! Would definitely contact Pinar again in the future”
“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 😊”
“Booked last minute with Ania and was so easy. Dropping Charlie off and she was slightly nervous but Ania was great with her. Sending me photos and updates to let me know how she was and how settled. On picking Charlie up, she had settled in with the family making herself at home. Will absolutely be booking again. Charlie came home relaxed and settled from her busy day.”
“Ruth done a great job looking after Marley for the day, Normally Marley is very excited to see me when I come home but at Ruths when I went to pick her up she barely took any notice of me as she was so happy where she was. Ruth is very kind and gentle and obviously loves and knows how to look after dogs and I would highly recommend her. I have booked an overnighter already.”
About: I love dogs. They are family and must be treated as such. I have experience with many puppies up to larger dogs weighing in excess of 30kg. I’ve a sensible head, good common sense and your best friend will get the best care with me. I walk different breed of dogs daily, I adapt the walk to their pace, some older paws need to go a bit slower! I have first aid certificate for dogs and happy to give medication if required. Free most weekends, still have availability all day Wednesday, some on Monday and Friday mornings. Cat drop in morning and late afternoon are free every day. Please contact me to confirm. I will care for your pets on drop in visits as if they were my own. They will have time to play and have cuddles whilst feeding to your schedule and making sure there is fresh water. I do not have a licence to board dogs so not offering this service. Equally I cannot offer sitter services in your home due to having 3 dogs of my own.
“Saoirse was absolutely wonderful, from initial contact, to meeting with Woody on the day of looking after him, all the way through to collection. I felt very comfortable leaving him as he was made to feel so welcome at Saoirses' home. When picking him up, he seemed very happy and well exercised (fell asleep in the car on the way home). Fab communication and updates on his stay. We will absolutely be using Saoirse again.”
“Rose did a fantastic job of looking after Moira for the day. I was a little worried because Moira has a health condition that requires special care. Rose's experience, knowledge and careful thoughts about what would be best for Moira, put my worries at ease. This was a great practice stay for when Rose looks after her while we are on holiday. Highly recommended!”
“This is the first time we have left our dog with anyone and being a puppy we wanted him to have a good experience. We did a meet and greet first so able to meet Chelsea and see where our dog was to stay. We found there was a nice garden to play in, fields to walk the dog at the rear of the house. Chelsea was great with our dog giving him time and space to explore and get comfortable with his surroundings. On drop off and collection everything was calm and he seemed quite happy with his new experience. we will defiantly use the service again and fully confident that we are leaving our dog in good hands. Thank you Peter and Anne”
“Cara took really good care of our puppy Nala for the day. She listened and took into account Nala’s care needs and was really happy when I picked her up, would definitely recommend and consider rebooking in the future.”
About: I have owned pets since a young child, including horses, dogs and cats. I love animals and have experience cat-sitting for customers.

These hours are flexible and can be altered around your schedule. I can therefore see to pets before work and after work. I am also free on weekends and am happy to work around the needs of your pets. I offer care for pets in the owners home, therefore the pets have all their own comforts. I will work around the needs of your pets at the time of the stay, for example, I'm happy to ensure pets are kept out of certain rooms if the rooms typically get hot during the day. I can be completely flexible around you and your pet as I am on a career break! Just let me know your routine and we can get to it. We have a lovely big fenced garden for your pet to run around and explore. I also love in the country side so there are lots of places to walk and explore!

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: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets. I studied Animal Care at college, completing both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications, which gave me a solid understanding of animal welfare, behaviour, health, and handling. I also spent four years working at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, where I cared for horses and donkeys, where I learned the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care tailored to each animal's individual needs. This experience strengthened my confidence in handling animals, recognising signs of illness or stress, and maintaining high welfare standards. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up and into adulthood, I've cared for dogs, cats, rats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, so I'm comfortable looking after pets with all kinds of personalities, needs, and routines. While I don't currently have pets of my own, I regularly spend time with my best friend's adorable sausage dogs, Dolly and Flossy, and her ragdoll cat, Nancy. I help care for them whenever needed, whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company while my bestie is away. One of the reasons I've joined Rover is because there's definitely a pet-shaped hole in my life! I genuinely love being around animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I'll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work full-time Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 4:30pm, which means I can provide care before and after work during the week. I'm available for morning visits before work for feeding, toilet breaks, walks, and companionship, and then have plenty of time in the evenings for longer walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and any other care your pet needs. My weekends are generally much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate even more time to pet care and ensuring your pets receive plenty of attention and company. I'm organised, reliable, and committed to sticking to your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with both your beloved pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My priority is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away by following their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I will always treat your property with the same respect and care that I would my own. I'm reliable, tidy, and considerate, and I'll make sure your home is kept secure and left exactly as I found it. I believe good communication is important, so I'm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and messages for extra peace of mind while you're away. With my Animal Care qualifications, four years of experience at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, and a lifetime spent caring for animals, you can be confident that your pet will be in caring, capable hands. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel relaxed, happy, and reassured throughout the entire experience.

I have a fenced secure garden for dogs to run around in, and plenty of space for them to roam around the house. I live in a rural location with lots of lovely locations for dog walks, with opportunities for your pets to socialise with other dogs in my community too. I can provide care for animals in their own home or take them for walks during school hours.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager, caring for my own and family and friends pets. I grew up on a farm and have loads of experience with animals. I’m currently working on bank as a HCA at Norfolk and Norwich hospital so can be very flexible and pick and choose shifts that work around my other duties. I have a lot of experience with animals having grown up on a farm and in particular dogs as I grew up with them being around all the time!
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 got my first dog when i was 10 and have never been without a pet since and im now 35 - absolutely love animals. Now, as a mum if 3, i have 3 children who carry my love for animals too. Weve had puppies, dogs, guinea pigs and now a tortoise. We are unable to keep animals full time due to work commitments and school so thought we could give our love to your pet. We are a busy family monday to friday day time however evenings and weekends are free and we love helping people and love animals so thought this joined our 2 loves together. We live in a quiet village surrounded by feilds and local walks. We have big parks for dogs to enjoy. We have a tortoise as a pet but hes as simple as can be.
About: Experienced, knowledgeable and mature but fit animal lover. I have grown up with dogs and ponies. I have always had pet dogs from puppies so I am experienced with all ages of dogs. I am mature and fit as well as knowledgeable and genuinely caring animal lover. I am not looking to make easy money but am looking to give a reliable, high quality service to clients and a high standard of care to day visiting/boarding pets. I am semi-retired with totally flexible hours and able to work from home. My dogs are walked 3-10 miles daily. Pets are accommodated downstairs only, they do not come to bed with me! I have a separate boot room where I can accommodate sleeping crates if required. I have one dog who sleeps in a crate and one dog who doesn’t. I can work to any reasonable routine/care plan to ensure that your dog’s routine is kept as normal as possible, this avoids unnecessary anxiety for your pet. I am able to offer walks in our own fields as well as on the public footpaths and public areas. For dogs that are happy to travel I can do beach, river and woodland walks.
About: I've lived with and taken care of a variety of dog breeds since my childhood. I am able to wash, walk and feed your pets so they are safe and well-cared for! I have just graduated from my law degree and am currently on summer holidays! I also have a part time job at the local pub, so have plenty of time to be occupied! I have a fenced garden and a dog and cat to keep your pet company. I also have a large crate to give your dog a place to go when tired, nervous or distressed if needed.
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!

“. Being so far away and for 3 weeks, we knew we didn’t have to worry about him as Sylvia is a kind and caring dog person. She sent us photos of him on his walks and updates of his activity with her. Sylvia followed the instructions about his diet I think from her comments that they really bonded over the spell that he was there. I would definitely leave him with her again and I plan to do so.”
“Charlotte was so amazing with my dog, Betty. Really took care to understand her and make sure she was happy and safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Charlotte again. Thank you so much Charlotte! X”
“Our Westie puppy Rocky was so well looked after by Pinar and her family that I’m not sure he wanted to come home 🤣 We would definitely recommend Pinar as we had great communication during our week away, including photos and videos which was lovely and reassuring to us and enabled us to have a good holiday. We will be letting Pinar look after Rocky when we go on holiday next year, so can’t praise her enough.”
“Buffy is 14 years old, quite frail and on medication so needed to find someone nice and kind who would look after her. Meg absolutely fitted the bill! Nothing was too much trouble, she was wonderful with Buffy, who does have a few problems. I have no hesitation at all, in recommending Meg.”
“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.”
“Charlotte looked after my girl Dottie for 10 days. Very very happy with how Dottie was looked after. Loads of photos and messages from Charlotte. Couldn’t be happier, thank you!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Elliott and Fran. They were incredibly friendly, reliable, and took such great care of our dog, Maisie.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and will definitely be booking again!”
“Nara had such a lovely time with Alberto and Claudia! We were away for 10 days and it really felt like Nara also had a holiday. She came home and was abit sad she wasn't with her friend Lulu! Would highly recommend!”
