Dog Boarding Hounslow

“We couldn't have asked for a better experience for Rocky! Cathy and her family provided exceptional care during our week away. We were so impressed by the daily updates, complete with photos and videos of Rocky enjoying walks and playtime. It was clear that he was happy and well-loved in their home. The open communication and peace of mind they offered were invaluable, especially being so far away. We wholeheartedly recommend Cathy to anyone seeking a loving and reliable pet sitter.”

“This was my first time leaving my baby fur with someone else, so i was really nervous, but honestly I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Mo and his wife took such good care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which really put my mind at ease. My baby came back calm and happy and clearly she was well looked after. I can tell that they genuinely care about dogs and treat them like their own. I'd definitely trust them àgain and highly recommend Mo and his wfie.”

“I felt really comfortable leaving Lottie as I could see Yasemin was a kind animal person. She sent me updates and reassured me as Lottie is scared of the fireworks. I would be happy to use Yasemin again and recommend her.”

“Ornela was fantastic with Twiglet, he had a great couple of days and had lots of fun! Really good communication and I received regular updates. Definitely will look forward to booking Twiglet a stay with Ornela and her family again.”

“Roshni was great with Archie (our dog) and Coco (our cat)! She was super friendly, gave us updates, and both pets seemed really happy and relaxed when we got back. Would definitely book with her again!”

Sreedutt S.

“Our girls had a great time with Jon (again). Totally going above and beyond to deal with the foibles of our German shepherd. So delighted that we have a home away from home for our girls when we needed to travel”

“This was our first experience using Rover and we couldnt be more pleased. Kristina and family looked after our 12 year old Cocker like a member of the family. So much so I was worried if he would in fact want to come home with us! Daily updates and photos were received to keep us reassured. Kristina also didn't hesitate to help us when our flight was delayed with a last minute extra night of boarding. A fabulous Rover experience, thank you Kristina and family!”

About: I'm passionate about dogs of all kinds and have been involved with dogs (& cats) one way or another my whole life. I grew up with dogs and learned first-hand the real-life care they need and deserve. Recently I've been involved in rescuing, fostering and dog-sitting in my home for my local community and have enjoyed it so much I decided creating a profile on Rover would be an excellent idea. But even in my 20's I used to dog-sit in clients' homes regularly, sometimes for up to a month at a time. I'm also a volunteer for the Advanced Dog Ownership Initiative, a new scheme developed by my dog professional colleagues, to help encourage and support responsible dog ownership, which has helped me improve my own understanding dog interaction and ownership. I've also previously worked as a volunteer for a London-based animal rescue which has contributed to my passion for animal welfare. I'm able to adapt to each dogs personality, size and breed, having looked after everything from big unneutered, untrained Huskies & Bouviers, all the way down to active Jack Russels and Scottish Terriers. I take into account each dogs sensitivities, for example, some dogs do not like contact with other dogs while out on a walk, and some need a good 2 hours out in the park, whereas some only need 2 shorter walks a day. Some dogs need stimulation during the day and others just need a good chunk of downtime to decompress. Each dog is different and I accommodate their needs accordingly. The only reason my partner and I do not currently have a dog is that we would prefer to improve our finances before making the commitment to bringing home a dog. My experience in fostering and owning dogs in the past has helped me understand fully what an important decision it is. So helping others care for their beloved hounds is the next best thing! I am a freelance creative who largely works from home, and only rarely has to work on-site. If that is unavoidable, my partner who is also experienced with dogs will be able to be home. However, if I know I'll be caring for a dog at the time I'll prefer to be home for the entire period, and I will try to arrange it that way. In the mornings, I think it's important to immediately let the dog out into the garden. I also think a walk first thing in the morning is ideal for most breeds as the nights can feel long for dogs. I'd follow their usual feeding routine but if they are fed in the morning I'd do that before the walk as usually they like to do their business after a meal! I can walk a dog up to 1,5 hours to 2 hours at a time if they require it. During the day I keep an eye on them and provide a space they can have to themselves to decompress. If they need a bit of stimulation, I can engage in a few games with them in the garden. My partner and I are "home bodies" so I'm usually home for the whole day except for a short outing to the local shop, and in most cases my partner will also be at home working. A late afternoon/early evening walk is also possible if they need it, sometimes this can be a short walk around a couple of blocks in the neighbourhood or further afield depending on the dog. Evenings are usually very quiet and relaxing but the dog is let out into the garden multiple times before securing the house and heading to bed. The dog is welcome to sleep in our bedroom on their bed if that is needed or in our living room. And finally, if the dog enjoys affection and human interaction then I have cuddles available by the truckload! I think it's important to follow a routine that feels healthy, comfortable and safe for the dog. Understanding their needs for diet, sleep, interaction and walking is important. In hot weather I would be sure to walk a dog outside of the hottest times of the day especially for dogs with thick coats. I carry a water bottle with me on walks at all times to ensure the dog is properly hyrdated. Before walking your dog for the first time, I'll check with you if they are comfortable around other dogs and people, or if they prefer not to interact at all. Some dogs are nervous of other dogs, and senior dogs often prefer to be left alone, especially by younger dogs. I'm careful to avoid any interaction that may not be comfortable. Giving a dog plenty of time to stretch their legs and also take in the scents and sounds is important and often the best way to keep them relaxed and content for the whole day ahead. Our home has a fenced garden, no other pets and no children so it provides a relaxing environment for any dog. I'd dedicate a space to put their bed which can be theirs for the duration to sleep and decompress.

“We were very happy with the way Ruby was looked after. Florent kept us updated with pics and reports and we could see how much love Ruby was getting. She had lots of walks and fun and has come happy, calm and relaxed. Communication with Florent is easy and he is very quick to respond. Highly recommrnd”

About: Hi, I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, personalities and ages. I owned and cared for my French Bulldog for the past 10 years, and before him I had a Golden Retriever. I also helped raise and care for a Chocolate Labrador from puppyhood and still regularly take him on walks today. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my dream was to become a vet, and although I chose a different path, my love for animals has never changed. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. Your dog will enjoy a secure fenced garden, plenty of playtime, walks, attention and, of course, lots of cuddles. I’m available throughout the day, which means your pet will receive lots of companionship and won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a warm, family-oriented home with my toddler son, who absolutely loves animals and has grown up around dogs. Because of this, my home is best suited to dogs that are friendly and comfortable around young children. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I’ll also be happy to send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy and receiving plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I am available throughout the day, every day. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks and regular toilet breaks. I enjoy spending time outdoors and being active, so daily walks are something I genuinely look forward to. At home, dogs will have access to a secure fenced garden and a comfortable family environment where they can relax, play and receive lots of affection. Because I am home most of the time, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive the care, supervision and cuddles they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. In my home, dogs will be welcomed into a loving family environment with plenty of attention, supervision and affection. I have a fully fenced and secure garden where dogs can safely play and explore, and I always ensure they have access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas and regular toilet breaks. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, preferences and any special requirements so they can feel as settled and relaxed as possible. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime or simply curling up for cuddles, I will make sure they receive the care and attention they need. As an experienced dog owner, I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and am happy to provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For dog walking, I prioritise safety at all times, using secure leads and choosing suitable walking routes based on your dog’s age, energy level and needs.

“Reda is such a lovely person, took fantastic care of my staff and gave him the personal touch. Highly recommended and we will be using her again.”

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. From puppies to older aged dogs, specially trained gun dogs, from Labradors, Highland terriers to Jack Russell. Right now, I am fully focused on dog walking as a full time career, and will devote all my time to this for the foreseeable future. Well, if it is a dog, it will be 2 to 3 meals a day, and at least 3 walks, depending on the age and the fitness of the dog.

“Thanks for looking after our Pudding. He was well cared for!”

Lotte L.

“Bizhen was a delight at looking after my golden retriever. She sent regular updates and kept me updated, and was very flexible in letting me extend my dog’s stay last minute! She showered him with love and he came back incredibly happy - definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

Olivia W.

“Tamyn and family were absolutely wonderful with Ruairí, it was clear that they were very comfortable and patient and took the time to understand his needs and allow him to explore, play, rest etc. We were kept updated throughout and from first meeting felt entirely comfortable leaving Ruairí with them - highly recommended and will certainly rebook in future.”

Callum K.

“Raul and his partner made Chester feel so welcome when they looked after him for the duration of our 1 week trip away. They kept us up to date with messages, pictures and videos throughout his stay with them - in every one of the updates Chester looked delighted! As Raul only accepts one dog at a time he is able to give them a lot of attention. Possibly more attention than we give him ordinarily! I think he might even have been in two minds as to whether he really wanted to come back with us when we went to collect! I thoroughly recommend Raul.”
