Thank you so much Emma and family 🐾🐾❤️❤️”


2. Courtney K.

“Courtney was a fantastic sitter for my puppy! She genuinely loved meeting him and enjoyed his company. I didn't expect to find someone I could trust that quick! She made sure I received plenty of pictures and videos of my boy while I was away. If I could give 10 stars, I would!”


3. Rebecca P.
“Rebecca has regularly looked after our two dogs when we have gone away. This has been for odd days as well as periods of several weeks. She provides excellent care and ensures all their needs are met. She also keeps us updated how things have been going through texts, phone calls and photos. She ensures they have their daily walks and have continuity of care and of their routines. They are happy to have her look after them and are very settled in her care.”

About: Hi, I’m Millie, a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes and sizes! Growing up in a home that always had at least two dogs, I naturally became the go-to sitter for family and friends. Whether it’s taking dogs on long walks, having sleepovers, running a doggy day care, or caring for them while their owners are away on holiday, I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand how important routine is for dogs, so I’m comfortable sticking to their schedule, administering medication if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and care. Looking after dogs isn’t just a responsibility for me - it’s something I genuinely love and find rewarding. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’d love to help care for your furry friend while you’re away! Feel free to reach out with any questions - I’d be happy to chat about how I can provide the best care for your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work flexibly from home most of the week. This means there’s always someone around to keep an eye on your dog, let them out into the garden, or take them for a walk whenever they need it. I’m also extremely active and love getting my steps in, so long walks and outdoor adventures are always a welcome part of my day. Whether it’s a quick break for some playtime or a longer walk to explore new trails, I make sure dogs in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and love throughout the day I take pet safety and comfort seriously, ensuring a secure and welcoming environment for every dog in my care. My home is pet-proofed with plenty of space for them to roam freely while staying safe. I also have a fully fenced garden, giving dogs the opportunity to explore, play, and relax outside without the risk of escape or harm. Inside, they’ll have a cosy and comfortable space where they can feel at home, whether they love to curl up for a nap or enjoy some playtime.


5. Rachel C.

“Can't thank Rachel enough for looking after Leo so well. It's the first time I've had to leave him with someone he hasn't met before and his welcome into her home was reassuring. She kept me updated including pictures and I picked up a very happy boy the day after. I have family in that area so if I ever need someone to look after Leo again, Rachel would be my first choice. Thanks again, my family and I are so greatful to you for taking are of our boy ☺️”


6. Karina A.

“Karina is nothing short to amazing. She is so accommodating and I bet my dog likes her more than me haha. He is always so happy to see her, and she is always on top of everything. She sends loads of pictures and updates! Tinto always feels at home with her.”


7. Abigail M.

“Abigail has a natural passion and love for animals which was evident on arrival, welcoming my dog Beryl with open arms! Her property is secure, and extremely welcoming for my dog to investigate. It’s nice to see that on collection my dog was still comforting with Abigail, the house is clean with no horrid kennel doggie smells. I fully recommend and will be using her services again, thank you 🤩”


8. Sarah B.

“Sarah and Martin were amazing! Before Jaffa Cake’s stay with them, we had a meet and greet which really put our minds at rest. We knew then that Jaffa Cake would be well looked after and he took to both Sarah and Martin instantly. During Jaffa Cake’s stay, we were sent pictures and videos which was lovely. Jaffa was so well looked after with long walks and trips out. We could see how happy Jaffa was from the pictures. Sarah and Martin went above and beyond and we have already booked the next stay with them.”


9. Alina P.

“My puppy had a great time with Alina, and I will return if neccessary. It's clear that they adore dogs, and she kept me informed with wonderful photos and videos. :) Definitely recommend”


10. Yvette P.

“Lexi loved her stay with Yvette. Lexi can be a little nervous but was comfortable straight away with Yvette and her 2 children because of the environment she created for her. Lexi can’t wait to stay again. Thank you for being so great with her!”


11. Olga C.

“Olga is a lovely lady whose love for animals is clear. Gizzy had a great stay and I felt so reassured he was safe and well looked after. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


12. Paul P.

“We had never left our 6 month cavapoo with anyone else before so we were quite nervous but Paul was fantastic! His communication is excellent and we felt really heard during the initial meet and greet so were reassured. Percy is a handful but Paul is obviously great with dogs and just laughed it off. He shared lots of photos and videos throughout the stay so we could see how Percy was getting on. It looked like he was having a wonderful holiday! Percy just wants to spend all his time with people and dogs, so it is the perfect household! He was exhausted when he got back after spending the whole time playing, going for walks and getting cuddles. Paul has looked after Percy again since and Percy was SO excited to go, which is probably the biggest sign that a clingy dog like Percy had a fantastic stay! Happy owners and a happy dog; we would highly recommend Paul!”


13. Ben M.
“Ben was a phenomenal dog sitter for my dog Ruffles, him and Ruffles had an excellent connection instantly, and it was clear from the start that Ben had experience with animals and he enjoys sitting and walking the dogs with a passion like no other. I usually opt to leave Ruffles with my sister in law Shanice, but every time Shanice comes around Ruffles can never be comfortable around her, however with Ben he instantly settled in. In addition to that Ben was on time and showed respect to me as I left my house for work, when I got back home ben had walked Ruffles and my dog had never gone to bed so quickly. Overall I Highly recommend Ben as a dog sitter.”


14. Iryna J.
“Good day. To whom this may concern. I have known Iryna Jones for three years now. And during that time I have cared for her two lovely cats when she has been away. Those cats were the best cared for you can imagine and much loved by Iryna. Irynas' home is well organised and super clean, ideal for any four legged friends to stay in. Iryna herself is a person of honesty and integrity and loves animals.”

16. Sophie B.
“Sophie is the most caring person I know, and her degree in animal science reflects her knowledge and passion for animals. She has a 9-month-old Miniature Dachshund named Cookie, who is lucky to spend every day by her side as Sophie works from home. Cookie enjoys nutritious, home-cooked meals tailored to her breed's needs and benefits from daily walks, ensuring she receives the best possible care..”


17. Krystian C.

“I was nervous about leaving my little dog Findlay with a dog boarder, I certainly shouldn’t have worried 😊 He was treated so well and looked after by Kristian and Sammie, thank you so much guys ❤️ The daily updates and photos were amazing and helped settle my worries. I will definitely recommend you to all my family and friends.”


18. Mantas B.
