“We did a trial night for our dog and had such a great experience. George and Dorothy were so responsive, supportive, and friendly throughout the whole process. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”


“Leo had a lovely time with Nicola - would definitely recommend her to others and will be booking in Leo again soon. Lovely friendly lady and super easy to communicate with.”


“Dougal recently stayed with Anely and her family for a few days, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Anely kept me updated regularly, which I truly appreciated—it was so reassuring to know that Dougal was enjoying his time with her little dog, Brownie, and bonding with Anely's family. It's clear Dougal has grown very attached to her, which is incredibly comforting. Knowing he's comfortable, happy, and in such safe hands allows me to fully relax when he's with her. Highly recommend!”

Secure home and lovely area for walks. Perfect communication. Asked all the questions that I hadn’t considered in order to give my pup the best care. Really lovely pictures and videos of the little one were sent showing what a great time she was having. She came home happy and relaxed. Super grateful for such a positive first experience. Thank you so much Jin and Partner!!”

“Our Shih tzu Willow settled in very nicely with sisters Nicola and Kerry and their mum. I was sent messages and photos throughout the whole weekend which was so reassuring.

I would definitely recommend this family to pet-sit your dog 🐶”

“We left our bichon Crystal with Jenny for 2 weeks. Jenny is lovely and welcoming. She shared photos of Crystal everyday of their walks plus giving us little updates which we loved. It's obvious to see that Crystal was very happy and well looked after when we picked her up and we were not fully convinced that Crystal wanted to come home with us. Thank you so much Jenny.”

Sunshyne went out of her way to make him comfortable as he may have been a little anxious to begin with, but in no time he was comfortable and enjoying his time there.

About: Save £15 with my link https://www.rover.com/sit/elliem46183 I’ve always been around dogs, from puppies to anxious dogs to senior dogs. I would love to fill my time looking after any dog, walking them, training them, cuddling them until my partner and I can have one of our own. I currently work 5 days, with Mondays, Fridays and some Wednesdays at home, so can look after your dog at my home and can take breaks when needed to walk/ toilet break etc. Tues/Weds/Thurs I can sit or walk in the evenings from 5. And weekends are generally open. Happy to care for your dog at my home (with my partner - who equally loves dogs and has always been around them) or at your home if you prefer.

“I was lucky enough to come across Rebecca when my summer holiday boarder due to an emergency had to cancel 48hours before we were due to go away! Rebecca agreed for us to come around on short notice and having told her, that my dog is nervous when meeting other dogs at first, she was super professional when meeting us with her lovely dog Archie. That prevented any potential issues further down the line and I had no hesitations dropping my dog off, she settled in immediately. There is no doubt Rebecca took excellent care of her - she shared pics and comments and went far beyond what could be expected of a boarder plus her updates were quite funny too. Archie was super patient with having another dog in his territory, I could not have wished for more. I will very happily use Rebecca again!”


“Fabienne looked after my two pups for one night, I received lots of lovely updates and photos and the boys were very comfortable and settled with her! Super happy with Fabienne’s services and would definitely recommend :)”

Elham M.
“Ellie has been an absolute lifesaver when it comes to taking care of my dog, Scamp! From the moment I met her, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and well-cared for. Scamp can be a little energetic and stubborn at times, but Ellie handles him with such patience and kindness—he absolutely adores her! She’s always been reliable, communicative, and sends the cutest photo updates that put my mind at ease while I’m away. I trust Ellie completely with Scamp, and I know he’s in the best hands possible. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Ellie is the one! I can’t recommend her enough!”
