Top-rated Gateshead doggy day care sitters

“Julie, is a really lovely lady. She is very caring and loving with my dog Sully. He has been going to Julie for daycare for almost 3 months now. He always comes back very happy and content. Sully, is always kept active with 2 walks a day and Julie, keeps me posted with pictures and video updates, regularly. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone.”


“Charlie has had the best day he loves going to Allas house and I always feel relaxed when he’s here. I use Alla every week as she treats Charlie like one of her own”


“Stellar and adaptable dog day care when our holiday plans somewhat changed and transport was limited. Yuen’s and her family’s support for our plans and loving care for our special dog at short-notice were above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. We definitely recommend Yuen to anyone needing dog day care, and will seek her services on our future visits to the area.”


“Our rescue puppy had their first day with Aviral today. I was a little anxious but got regular updates. Floyd was excited to see me but also reluctant to go home ! Sign of a good stay.”


“Once again Cathy has taken such good care of my boys, she is so flexible to meet their needs and takes on any thing I have to say with regards to their training. The boys love spending time with her and always come home, absolutely exhausted”


“Leanne went above and beyond to have Maggie for the day when I had no one to help look after her! She was spoilt rotten, with updates! I had total confidence Maggie had the best day - thanks again”


“Evangelia had fantastic communication, replying very swiftly to agree to my short-notice request for doggy day care. She looked after our young cockapoo really well and clearly enjoyed having him. I would gladly ask her to help us out again and, judging by his wags, I'm sure Harvey would too! ?”


“Amazing carer, great atmosphere for our Evie who had a great time! It was her first time in a doggy day care and it all went so smoothly. Will be our dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much Kyriakos!”


“As ever, Sophie took great care of lily. She is very reassuring and the updates are most welcome. We’ll certainly be using Sophie again. Lily was very happy there.”


“Kateryna took good care of Mabel☺️ She took all of the details about Mabel’s food and walks etc and was very quick at responding to messages and updating me about how Mabel was doing.”


About: I have been around dogs since I was 11 years old when we got our first family dog. I have my own dog Bowie who is 7 years old, who has epilepsy. So I am experienced in administering medication to dogs. I have looked after a variety of ages of dogs, from puppies to senior dogs & have experience on training puppies. I work from home 4 days a week, so I am at home all the time to look after my own and other dogs. On my days off, I do longer walks around country parks & to the beach. I have a fully secured garden at my home to allow them free roam in the house & garden. There is plenty of space for a crate, if your dog prefers staying in a crate or space in the bedroom if your dog requires sleeping in the same room as myself. There will also be my dog Bowie at home all the time to keep your fur baby company!

“Anna is great, really lovely with my dog Ty. I would definitely recommend her for looking after your dog.”


“Lottie came home very content. Jake was very friendly and obviously really likes dogs. Thanks”


About: Was dog mum to my beautiful German Shepherd and fiesty Jack Russell for 12 years and sadly lost them both to old age. Moved home in 2023 with my partner Andy and rather than getting my own pooch we have been helping out family and friends and thought it would be great to extend that to help more people. I never allowed my dogs to go into kennels, I couldn't stand the thought and I know how hard it is to find someone to leave your dogs with. I have experience with big and small dogs aswell as looking after two at the same time. I would not allow multiple bookings and only look after your dog/dogs during that time. I am full time home worker Monday- Friday 9 - 5.30. I have great walks and countryside right on the door step. I also have a 1 hour lunch so plenty of time to get good run out mid day as long as not too hot. I have a three bedroom house and yard so plenty space indoors. Have yard outside with high wall and secure fence. I live close to amazing outdoor places such as Tanfield Way, Derwent Walk and County Durham countryside.

“Very happy with the care that Michaela and Dave have offered our beagle, Phoebe. Lovely couple who clearly offer a high level of care and want to build a lasting relationship. We will definitely be using again.”


“Jane has been great with milo! He adjusted really quickly to her home and her family, I can see how happy he is with her and how excited he gets to go back in the morning. I’m at peace knowing milo is in great hands and he’s getting the best care in the world 🥰”


“Danny was the perfect sitter for my dog. She suffers with separation anxiety, barks when scared and needs daily medication. Danny took all of this in his stride, caring for her so well. He sent me videos and photos which helped me know she had settled well with him and was happy. He was happy to feed her her raw food and was very gentle and kind with her. I'd highly recommend Danny, 5 stars !”



About: I love my two little ones. I would definitely have more if I could afford. I love all dogs. Love to spend time with 💕 I am working from home. Free weekends and weekdays after 3pm when I finish work. Happy to spend time with your little ones when I'm free. I give them lots of love and care and they get it. I have built relationship with my little ones based on love and affection.

About: There’s never been a time in my life where i have not lived without pets. I grew up in a household that was pet crazy with many different pets from hamsters to horses. I have been brought up around very big dog breeds, and also small dog breeds. I moved out from my parents when i was 18 and went on to get my own two large breed dogs and four cats. The house i currently live in is very big and used to be two flats, so conveniently the house can be sectioned off into two still, meaning if your pet doesn’t want to be around mine, that is easily done. I am self employed and work when i like to, so i can fit around and requests that you need for me to take care of your pets:) I can offer many different types of services for your fur babies, whether this be taking them out for multiple walks, having a good play of tug of war with them, letting them play with my pets (completely up to you) or even bathing/ washing them. If your pet has and dietary needs or medication they need, i’m very responsible to take care of that.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats ever since I was born, in total I’ve looked after 3 sausage dogs, a foxhound and a cat called Lucy! I take them on walks, bathe them and give them lots of cuddles I’m currently working part time as a Researcher for Northumbria Police and I work from home (except for Thursdays). My usual shift patterns are 11-3 Monday to Friday (Tues -12:30-16:30). So I have a lot of spare time to look after your furry friends! I have a relatively large front and back garden and I’m happy to take them on walks every couple of hours as I love going on walks for fresh air. I also live 10 minutes away from chase park so happy to let them roam there for a couple of hours to get some fresh air! I don’t mind if they have an accident in the house, which animal doesn’t from time to time! My house is big enough for any type of dog to roam and play and we always make sure the house is clean and nothing that could cause injury is out
