Dog Boarding Hartford

“Fantastic experience. Tímea and her family were wonderful and very professional and kept us relaxed with regular photos and updates. Highly recommended”

“Elina took wonderful care of our whippet, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was extremely responsive both before the stay and throughout, which gave us real peace of mind. We received plenty of photos and updates, and it was clear he was enjoying every minute. What really stood out was how she treated him like her own—giving him genuine care, attention, and affection. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Elina’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Fleur was brilliant. Kept in contact with us whilst we were abroad and Ramsey stayed for a week. He had a great time and it was clearly a home from home for him. Will definitely use Fleur for dog sitting again!”

“Honey loved her first stay with Ellie and Alex, she was very happy and comfortable. Great communication, sending photos and updates throughout the stay. Thank you so much. Will be in touch for more bookings in the future.”

“Left Teddy with Pauline and Bertie for a couple of days. He obviously enjoyed it very much and we will definitely be boarding him with Pauline in the future.”

Julie L.

“Colin had a great time. It was the first visit to a new minder and Annchalee and Will were lovely. We received picture updates with messages to let us know how Colin was and we could not have asked for a better experience for him. Thank you both.”

“Pj stayed with Emma for 5 days whilst we were on holiday he settled in well from the first day, Emma sent pictures and videos of pj’s stay which was nice to see as we missed him very much i would definitely be using her again as pj loved his stay Thank you again :)”

“Nicola was very nice and I was sent some videos and pictures during the stay to keep me updated. I would recommend her and will be using her again to mind Sam in the future.”

Philip H.

“Jess and Ben have been wonderful. They are fantastic with dogs and immediately put us at ease. Bonny, our Tibetan Terrier, is usually quite reserved around strangers, but Jess and Ben had no trouble winning her over. They kept us updated throughout the day without us having to ask, which was greatly appreciated and gave us real peace of mind. By the time we arrived to collect her, it was obvious she felt completely at home and comfortable in their care. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and would happily leave Bonny in their care again.”

Assana A.

“Chelsea looked after our Labrador for 2 weeks while we were away on holiday. She kept us informed on Wilma's wellbeing throughout the stay, sending us regular updates with photos which helped to keep our minds at ease. Wilma appeared happy and healthy when we collected her and Chelsea had even given her a bath ready for our return.”

Karen J.

“Pauline was very accommodating. From the initial query, meet and greet and eventually stay. Daisy was well looked after and got plenty of exercise and attention and you can just tell Pauline loves dogs. Receiving updates throughout her stay was also a very nice touch.”

Rory L.

“Jade and Oscar were fab at looking after our 15 year old Jack Russell and 6 year old Border Collie. They sent us regular photos and messages of how they were getting on and what they had been up to. Our dogs settled in well and seemed very happy. Jade and Oscar made them feel right at home and made sure that they had their regular medication. I can highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate in using them again.”

Christel R.

“Olivia was absolutely fabulous when looking after Nell. She collected her and dropped her back off at a different address for us. She provided regular updates and photos. She even bought Nell some new toys to play with! Would 100% go back to Olivia when we go away again! Perfect!”

About: I’ve had horses and dogs from being 2 years old , so animals are my life , I grew up with them so I know exactly how to tend to different needs of the animal and their health and happiness is always my best interest I am currently on maternity leave with my son, I am available 7 days per week for walking, drop ins etc. i will be returning to work in October however I work from home x5 days per week and have a lot of flexibility in my role to cater to your animals needs I treat every animal how we treat our own. With love , care and plenty of cuddles and treats! No animal is “too much” and their care and happiness is my utmost priority.

“Charlotte looked after Dolly really well - especially with the extreme heat during her stay. Charlotte sends updates and photos & Dolly seemed really chilled. Highly recommend. Thanks again.”

Alexandra W.

“Andrew & Pia were absolutely fantastic with Wilf. This was our first time leaving him alone with someone outside the family. Regular updates throughout the week put our minds at rest. He’s come home such a happy dog so Wilf will most definitely be returning for more adventures.”

Ryan G.

“Our dog was very happy with Chad - she went for walks and played, and was kept cool in the heat. She went in and left with a wagging tail. Thanks so much.”

About: I’ve raised two dogs from puppyhood, so I understand every stage of their development - from house training and boundless puppy energy to the gentler care seniors need. Our family dog is now 13, so I’m experienced with managing age-related conditions (such as heart issues and arthritis) and adjusting activities to each dog’s pace. Whether your dog needs a calm companion at home or a brisk lunchtime walk to burn off energy, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need, with lots of love along the way. I work full time from home, so am available as a companion for your dog through the day. I can take them on walks at lunch and/or after work, and can make sure they have frequent access to outside if required. At the weekend, we can extend walk times to suit your dog’s fitness. We are expecting a baby in January 2026, so our availability is reduced from then while we settle in as a family. We have a fenced garden, and many cosy dog beds dotted about the house. We have a stair gate to fence off upstairs if you’re worried about access to stairs, and our downstairs has LVT flooring which is not too slippy (geriatric dog approved!) so they shouldn’t have any difficulty scamping around. We also have a 13-year-old male Pugalier, who loves the company of other dogs. He will be happy to settle down next to them for a snooze, or watch avidly while your dog plays with toys.

“First time using Vicky's help and I couldn't be happier. I was informed and updated regularly. Vicky is very experienced with dogs and clearly very popular with many repeated bookings. She was perfecly able to take care of my huge German Shepherd - Logan absolutely loves her. I can highly recommend Vicky as a sitter <3”

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments, from my family Cavachon to regularly looking after two Chow Chows and a Husky for friends. I occasionally work at a puppy yoga class in Manchester, where the puppies' wellbeing is the top priority. I particularly enjoy building confidence in nervous puppies and helping them feel safe and comfortable in new environments. Whether your dog is calm, energetic, shy or full of personality, I'll provide patient, reliable care tailored to their needs. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays (finishing at 12pm on Fridays), which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also work from home on some Tuesdays, and occasionally I have full weeks working from home, giving me even more availability. On the days I work in the office, I'm home by around 4pm, so I'm available for evening care and walks. I'm also free most weekends, making it easy to accommodate weekend bookings and provide dedicated care for your pets. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. In your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication (if required), and any house rules your pet is familiar with. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, while also respecting their individual temperament—whether they love lots of interaction or prefer a quieter approach. If caring for pets in my own home, they'll have a clean, safe, and relaxed environment where they can feel comfortable. I have a decent-sized garden, and I live directly opposite a field with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, so dogs can enjoy regular exercise. They'll always have fresh water, regular toilet breaks, lots of attention, and plenty of love and supervision.
