Dog Boarding Eye

“This was our first time leaving Jake in the very capable hands of William. William and his partner were very friendly and welcoming and Jake clearly enjoyed his time with them. We have no hesitation in recommending this host to other owners.”

“We messaged Sarah last minute due to another sitter letting us down. Sarah looked after Otis like one of her own. She sent regular updates and photos of Otis having the best time. Would definitely book again and also recommend!! Thank you Sarah!”

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… food bowls washed throughly after every use and water bowls washed every time it’s refilled. Long walks every day or even 2 times a day and no I’m not talking a hour at a time I’m talking 3-4 hours I believe dogs should be outside exploring not inside all day… mental stimulation is a must… I’m not saying I’m perfect I’m just saying I know what I’m doing 🥰🥰 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.

“Hi guys, sorry we didn’t get to meet as Olive was dropped off by Sarah’s mum but Olive sends her love and says she had a wonderful time. Being on a farm with 3 boys willing to throw her a ball - what’s not to like!? BTW my owners forgot to let you know that I only get 3/4 of a pack of one of the food pouches and so I was basically in total bliss. Came back and ignored my owners for the first 24 hours as they clearly have no idea how to look after a dog. X”

“Annie welcomed Cora from 1st minute until collected the next day. Lots of updates and lovely photos throughout the day made me feel calm that she was in safe hands and meticulously cared for. Everything went seamlessly, and would not hesitate to book again. Thank you Annie”

“Just a short stay this time, but our boys are always well cared for and clearly enjoy their time with Gareth, Marius and Oscar. Thanks again, see you in a couple of months.”

“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.”

Richard M.

“Nicholas was very attentive to Millies needs. Millie can be anxious around new people, but Nicholas was very understanding and experienced when interacting and caring for her. I would highly recommend his services to anyone who want a 5 star service for their pets.”

Keeley T.

“Laura was brilliant with Lola, took very good care of her and had excellent communication with us. We would definitely recommend, and will be booking Lola in with Laura again next time we are in the area”

Kate G.

“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”

Brittany R.

“This was our second time boarding Rory with Lloyd, this time for a longer stay and again, had the best experience! Lloyd is so communicative and seeing photos of Rory while I was away was so comforting and I looked forward to them everyday. She got lots of exercise, time outside, and got along with Hudson seemingly so well. Again, a great experience, thank you Lloyd and Hudson!”

Anna N.

“Sarah and her husband had our 11 month old Labrador Toby for the weekend. You could not find kinder people to look after your dog. Plenty of updates to let us know he was okay and it was clear that he had enjoyed his time with Sarah and her family”

Rob S.

“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 :)”

Rosie M.

“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.”

About: Hi, I’m Maria! 🐾 I am home full-time with my dog Teddy by my side. We love canine company and would be delighted to welcome your furry friend into our home. I'm available for full day care, and possibly overnight stays. Our home is calm and child-free, making it an ideal environment for dogs who need a peaceful space. Teddy is a small dog who is great with other dogs and enjoys having playmates to share his day with. We have a secure garden where they can play safely. Since I'm here around the clock, your dog will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout their stay -they'll never be left alone for long periods. I’m at home all day. My little dog is walked by 10am most mornings and then has the use of the garden for the rest of the day. In the nicer weather he may get more walks!! I have a secure garden for dogs to enjoy, including a safely fenced-off pond area so they can explore while staying protected. Safety is always my priority.

About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I've looked after many happy Rover guests with my husband and am now welcoming them through my own profile. Your dog will enjoy a loving home, plenty of attention, and over 2 acres of fully fenced, secure garden to explore and play safely. I work from home, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have company throughout the day. I have a large, comfortable home with air conditioning for hot summer days, plus over 2 acres of fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can safely run, play, explore, or simply relax. I tailor the day to each dog's energy level and routine, making sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. Your dog's safety, comfort, and routine are our top priorities. I have a friendly 9-year-old Labrador who loves the company of other dogs and gets on well with canine visitors. I follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication if required. I'm also happy to accommodate their preferred sleeping arrangements—whether that's in our bedroom, their own bed, another room, or a crate—so they feel as relaxed and at home as possible.

“Inga and her family took fantastic care of our dog Milo! We got loads of updates and felt very reassured throughout the booking that he was being well looked after and happy. I’ll definitely be booking with Inga again!”
