So happy to have found Maria to look after Daisy for 10 days while we were on holiday. It was the first time we had left Daisy, but Maria's confidence and love for dogs made us feel immediately relaxed. She kept us updated with photos, and it looked like Daisy had a nice holiday too.

Shishir and Marion took great care of Alfie, from the start they saw I was anxious about leaving him with a strangers and did everything they could help reassure me, allowing me to schedule a few meetings and greets to get to know them and for them to get to know Alfie. Throughout my stay I got daily updates and pictures and felt constantly reassured he was happy whilst I was enjoying my holiday. I would book them again without a doubt and highly recommend them!

Mina took care of our spring/collie cross 4yr old over three days. A good summary is our dog did not want to leave! Mina was absolutely lovely with her throughout. Very professional and affectionate towards our dog. Plenty of exercise with quality walks and fantastic communication throughout the stay. Couldn’t ask for more and would definitely recommend.

Begona looked after my dog Nancy for 5 days, Nancy is an anxious dog but she settled really quickly at Begona's house. Begona is competent and calm making it the perfect environment for her. Her dog, Rango, has a lovely calm personality making him the perfect companion. Thank you!

About: I’m currently welcoming my first clients through Rover and offering calm, reliable dog care in a true home-from-home family environment, with plenty of one-to-one attention and affection. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I have hands-on experience caring for and nurturing them. My husband also grew up with dogs, and in our home they are treated as part of the family — welcome on the sofa, on the bed, and included in everyday family life. My children (8 and 10) are gentle, loving and absolutely adore having doggy guests in the house. Our own dog, Coco, is friendly, sweet-natured, and enjoys having furry friends to stay. Whether it’s daycare, walks, or overnight boarding, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible and provide plenty of care, exercise, play, and cuddles throughout their stay. I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your dog with someone new, so I always provide regular updates and photos to keep you reassured. I’m happy to care for small and medium-sized dogs who are friendly with other dogs and comfortable around children. I work from home a few mornings a week, so I have plenty of time to properly look after, care for, and spend quality time with your doggy. I have a spacious fenced garden and a small doggy to keep your fur baby company. We are a family of four - myself, my hubby and 2 children aged 8 and 10, who are always gentle and wonderful with our doggy guests. We are lucky to have three beautiful parks nearby. I ensure to provide plenty of fresh air, exercise, play and especially lots of love and attention.

Thank you to Robin and Helena for the brilliant care of our girl Hallie for the past 10 days. Through the many texts and videos we could see Hallie was happy and having her very own holiday with love, care and lovely water walks during the cooler hours of the heatwave. When Helena described Hallies obnoxious shedding as Hallie glitter, I knew she was in great hands!!

We couldn’t recommend Zsuzanna more! What a kind and caring sitter. We needed to drop Annie off earlier than planned and she was more than accommodating, felt instantly at ease which was perfect as we had a busy day and couldn’t check our phones. Seeing the updates later was lovely and Annie obviously had the best time playing games. She slept all afternoon when we got home, happy dog!

Our dog Chai had a wonderful time with Tanirika. He stayed over for 5 days and was well looked after. Tanirika gave us regular updates throughout his stay and we could see he was thoroughly enjoying himself and was in great hands. This reassurance allowed me and my family to relax and enjoy our trip abroad. I highly recommend Tanirika if you ever need someone to look after your dog.

About: Experienced as dog owner across all life stages, capable of caring for elderly dogs, including diabetes management (insulin administration). Patient and understanding for any little mishaps that puppies or senior dogs can have. DBS (police) check available on request. I provide dog walking, pet sitting, feeding, playtime, and general care to keep your pets happy, safe, and relaxed while you’re away. I've cared for many animals including dogs, rabbits and goldfish. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and energy levels and can also give medication when needed, including diabetic care. I will follow owners’ routines and instructions provided.

I had a lovely experience with Jennifer. It was lovely meeting her and her husband they are very warm and welcoming, I immediately felt as ease. Jennifer’s communication is fabulous and I really appreciate all the photos she sent me of my dog’s progress. I like her way of doing things they were just like I’d do at home and it makes me super confident that my Dafe is in the best care! I booked an overnight stay as I’d like to use Jennifer more long term so I wanted to see how my Dafe got on with her and her family. I’m so confident with continuing on with her. Thanks Jennifer!!!!! You’re awesome. Just an additional note: when I went to pick up my dog he was just super chilled. It took me back a little - granted he was happy to see me, but not in an overly excited was like he was ready to go home. He looked like he could have comfortably gone back to bed, which MADE MY DAY!!!!!!! I must also add that Jennifer’s house is beautiful, it’s peaceful, SUPER SPOTLESS WOW! and overall warm. It’s definitely an environment and family you’d want your dog to be with. 10/10!

About: Hi, I’m Danielle! I’ve been passionate about dogs my whole life, having grown up with my Bichon Frise, Daisy. With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated dog walker, I provide reliable, loving, and professional care for every dog I meet. I have two wonderful dogs of my own and am experienced with a wide variety of breeds. I’m known for being trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely committed to each dog’s wellbeing. Your dog will love spending time in my large, fully fenced garden, complete with a patio and grassy areas perfect for play and exercise. They’ll also enjoy the friendly company of my own dogs during visits. I’m flexible and available throughout the day, so I can easily work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or longer stays, I’m here to give you complete peace of mind. I take excellent care of every pet and will always communicate clearly about any special requirements. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that lets me dedicate plenty of time to walking, playing, and spending quality time with dogs. I’m available for boarding seven days a week, including overnight stays, and I can easily adjust to your dog’s feeding, exercise, and medication schedule. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re with Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. I keep my home pet-proofed by removing hazards and supervising dogs closely at all times. I build trust through patience, calm energy, and positive reinforcement, never forcing interaction. When boarding in my home, I provide a secure and comfortable space with a consistent routine. For visits to a pet owner’s home, I follow their instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure the pet feels safe and relaxed with me.
