“Yves was absolutely brilliant with my Masha! She was responsive and easy to plan with, making the whole process seamless. Throughout the day, she kept me updated, which gave me real peace of mind. I could tell that Masha loved being there and was well cared for. I would definitely recommend Yves and will absolutely be asking her to look after Masha again!”

“Esmé could not have been more welcoming and professional. Finlay dashed in to her house and clearly had a wonderful day. He enjoyed the garden and was relaxed and happy enough to have a good nap after lunch. I shall definitely be asking for Esmé’s help again. Many thanks”

“We left our lurcher with Danielle whilst we went to a rugby match. Despite the pouring rain she took her out for a walk (thank you)! She had 1 other dog there and they did not get along when they met so she kept them separate, which seemed to work well.”


“Harriet was brilliant with our Alfie. She kept in contact with regular updates and photos and put our mind at rest when he was unsettled. I would have no hesitation in using her services again and recommending her to friends and family. Thank you Harriet!”

“We couldn’t recommend Tilly highly enough. From the very first moment, she showed such a calm, thoughtful and genuinely caring approach, always putting Romy’s comfort and wellbeing first. She really took the time to help her feel relaxed and at ease, which made a huge difference for us. Throughout the day, Romy was clearly in the best hands. When we picked her up, she was completely herself: happy, confident and relaxed… and once we got home, she collapsed straight into a deep sleep, which says everything about how much positive activity, play and engagement she’d had! It’s obvious that Tilly truly understands dogs and creates a lovely, balanced environment, especially with her own sweet cockapoo, Lila. Romy had an amazing time, and we felt totally reassured knowing she was being cared for so thoughtfully. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with Tilly again and would warmly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind and fantastic dog sitter. Thank you so much, Tilly! Romy can’t wait to come back! 🐾💛”


About: I've take care of dogs of every kind. Neighbours and friends have relied on my to care for the dog whilst away, and I now have a miniature poodle of my own Mya who loves to be with other small dogs. I'm currently working part-time, working from home, so have plenty of time to keep you fury friend company during the day. I'm available for boarding at weekends as well as weekdays. I’m an academic at the University and feel very lucky to live in a spacious home with a secure, fenced garden close to the University and the beautiful Duryard Valley nature reserve — perfect for walks and outdoor time. I live with my 17-year-old daughter, who will also be at home over the holiday period studying for her A-levels. She absolutely loves dogs and will be delighted to spend time playing with your furry friend in the garden. We’ll be home throughout the summer and would love to welcome one guest dog into our home. We have a sweet miniature poodle who can be a little shy at first, but soon warms up, loves to play, and happily sleeps on my bed. To make sure every dog gets lots of attention and care, we only take one additional dog at a time. If needed, I’m also happy to crate your dog overnight at your request.
“Rosalind was amazing with Winky!! Super flexible with our pick up and drop off times, and fab communication throughout the day! 10/10 would defs recommend and use again. Thank you!! x”

“Carla was absolutely brilliant with Romy. She was very quick to reply to messages and kept us constantly updated, sending photos almost every hour, which was really reassuring. Romy is only a 5-month-old puppy, so we were a bit nervous at first, but Carla made her feel comfortable straight away. Just a few hours after we dropped her off, Romy was already happily curled up having a nap on the sofa: relaxed, calm and clearly at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better day care experience and would happily recommend Carla to anyone, especially with young puppies.”


“Alberto was absolutely brilliant with Gizmo and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better first daycare experience. Gizmo had a full day of lovely walks, socialising with another dog and lots of stimulation, and it was clear from the photos/videos that he was having an amazing time and was really comfortable and happy. Communication was great, and Alberto was really calm, kind, reassuring and knowledgeable. Gizmo came home happy, relaxed and completely exhausted 😂 Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much!”

About: I’m a reliable, calm, trusted dog owner & sitter with experience of small & large breeds. I have had dogs all my life and grew up with dogs in the household. I have trained my own dog to a very high standard of recall and manners, and he gets along with all other dogs. My calm & confident approach has resulted in a harmonious, calm household that pets I have looked after settle into quickly. I live a fairly active lifestyle, so we are out and about every day for a nice long walk. We love to walk down along the river weather permitting, and we go to Exmouth a couple of times a week for a good run on the beach. We also like to chill in town at a few dog friendly cafes, where they get lots of fuss, so of course your dog would be with us. I live in a basement flat with direct access to a large, secure, enclosed garden that they access to all day. The garden is surrounded on all sides by a 7ft high solid brick wall that is escape proof, perfect for the dogs to free roam and play in complete safety at their leisure. I also live 50 metres from Belmont Park which we visit several times a day. The park is perfect for dogs to socialise as we have a large group of local dog walkers.

About: I am an experienced dog owner, and fosterer for a couple of rescues. I have fostered lots of different breeds from Yorkshire terriers and dachshunds, to poodles and pomskys! I am confident handling nervous and quirky dogs. I welcome every dog into my home as if they are my own. I work for a dog food company and my whole live revolves around giving dogs the best life possible. I work fully remotely from home with flexible hours so I can adapt my routine to fit your dogs needs. Typically our routine is made up of 3 walks a day, and a last wee break before bed! But I can cater to any needs and requirements. I have a fully fenced (6ft) enclosed garden, dogs have full access to when required via patio doors. I have 2 friendly resident dogs - a 14kg mixed breed female and a 9kg male poodle. Both are neutered & are rescues but are used to dogs coming and going! I do have a house cat, but he can be kept separately from any visiting dogs as and when necessary. Dogs are allowed in my bedroom / bed at night if needed.
“Couldn't be happier leaving Sausage with Daniel. He is the first sitter we have felt 100% confident in. Clearly loves dogs - which is a good start - but also responsible, reliable and resourceful. Having a lovely dog himself has been a big plus point too. Sausage has come to trust him very quickly and, as a dachshund, that is definitely not always the case. We are happily enjoying some well-earned days to ourselves, after a long time.... nights away next!”


“Maisie is absolutely amazing and our Ella had just the best time with her and her 18 month old cocker. Can’t thank Maisie enough and for all the photo and video updates. Would totally recommend, Ella couldn’t have had any more fun.”

“Karen is so friendly and welcoming for any nervous owners leaving their dog for the first time. The garden is secure and perfect for them to play in and Willow the whippet is a wonderful play mate for other dogs. Everything had a happy vibe and my dog had a great day and came home exhausted.”

“I’ve left my dog Rex with Rosie a few times for daycare and also boarding and he’s always so pleased to see her. Rosie has a really good energy that puts him at ease. She is also always understanding and considerate when communicating which makes leaving rex with her very easy. She’s been so awesome with Rex that she’s always the first choice for us whenever we visit central Exeter. Can’t recommend her enough 😊”

“Pablo’s stay with Alicia and Gismo for the day was terrific. This was Pablo’s first time staying with Alicia and she took the time to settle him in before introducing him and Gismo. Alicia was very responsive when I made the booking request and asked great questions about Pablo’s eating routine, temperament, walking habits, likes and dislikes ?. She kept me updated all day on how Pablo was doing and sent me lovely photos. Pablo is going back for another day visit soon and I would very much recommend Alicia”

“Charlotte and her house-mates were amazing with our spaniel over a week of doggy day care. They provided lots of walks and attention, and he clearly loved being there (bounded straight in every day). I’d highly recommend and look forward to using them again!”

So pleased that Yves and Nick were able to care for Stanley again, it is clear that he loves them as he gets so excited when we get near to their house and he realises where he is going. Stanley is a high energy pup who is always craving attention and play so it is good to know that they find that endearing. They are genuine dog lovers and I would not hesitate to recommend them and will definitely be making another booking.

Naomi was brilliant with Gizmo and kept me updated with photos and videos, which was really reassuring as it was his first full daycare day. He had a fantastic day with beach walks, socialising and lots of stimulation, and came home really calm and settled afterwards. Naomi was friendly, relaxed and clearly great with dogs. Would definitely recommend and will absolutely be booking again 😊

Rachel went above and beyond looking after our 4 month old puppy. She would take her out each day and socialise her with other dogs, we are thankful for Rachel’s professionalism and dedication to looking after Willow. She kept in contact throughout the entire time, providing knowledge and photo updates. Would highly recommend to anyone.

An absolutely fantastic service, Maisy was very kindly able accept a short notice booking for dog daycare. Leo was shattered when he got home.

I recently left my dog, Mia, with Angelina, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she received. When I picked Mia up, she was so happy and full of energy—more than I’ve ever seen her after staying with someone else. It was clear that Angelina looked after her with so much love and attention. Because of this wonderful experience, I’ve decided that from now on, Angelina will be the one I trust to take care of Mia whenever I need to be away. Mia already feels like she has a second home with her. I will happily reach out to Angelina again and again, knowing my dog is safe, cared for, and truly happy. Highly recommend!
