“Kathryn and her entire family were so welcoming, their home feels cosy, and has a wonderful atmosphere. Pepper had a wonderful time and was clearly happy with Kathryn, she will definitely be going back again ☺️”


“Paulina looked after Marley for two days. She left me updates, it was easy to talk to her. Paulina is very friendly and lovely I’m sure Marley had the best time. If we will ever need someone again for Marley to stay, we would book Paulina again. Thanks ! :)”


“Penny had a lovely time with Susan and family!! Lovely video and photo updates of her time there, would absolutely use again, so happy with the care they provided for her, lots of fun walks and ball throwing! thanks so much! 😊 x”


“I can’t thank Sonia enough for stepping in at the very last minute to look after my French Bulldog, Pablo. With no time for a meet and greet, I was a bit nervous leaving him with someone new — but Sonia immediately put me at ease. She was incredibly responsive, professional, and most importantly, kind and calm with Pablo, who can be a bit of a diva sometimes! I got regular updates and photos, and it was clear he was relaxed and happy in her care. Finding someone so reliable and caring on such short notice is rare, and I feel very lucky to have found Sonia. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again — highly recommended!”


About: Currently studying IMDT Level 3 Professional Daycare and Boarding course I make a great dog sitter because I have years of experience caring for my own dog—a 9-year-old pug (Doug) who is part of the family. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and attention to detail when it comes to pets. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, administering medication if needed, and giving lots of love and attention. Dogs’ well-being is my priority, and I treat every pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I work from home, giving me the freedom and flexibility to provide constant care, attention, and companionship to your dog in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. We have a big, fully fenced garden with lots of space for dogs to play and explore safely. I’m able to leave the door open during the day, so dogs can move freely between the house and garden, making it a fun and relaxed environment for them to enjoy.

About: I’ve had my dog for five years also been around dogs all my life through family and neighbours, it’s just me and Leo will be good meet other doggies :) I’m currently working part time ( so always at home with my dog go on 2/3 walks a day, would love to have more company for my dog Leo I have a fenced garden and Leo would love to play and keep your dog safe too and join us on our walks please :)

“Yudi provided Leo with kindness and care which we appreciated. Yudi's communication was excellent, and her flexiblity in when we were collecting Leo was appreciated, given we were traveling home some distance, traffic delays etc. Lovely pictures updating us on his time away. We would have no hesitation in recommending and asking Yudi to look after Leo again.”


“This was our first time booking with Richard, and the visit seems to be a success to the point that one of my dogs didn’t want to leave Richard’s sofa to go home. We were kept informed every day how the dogs were doing and got some picture updates as well. We definitely be back with some more doggy day care requests ☺️”


“Fran was absolutely incredible! She looked after Ebony like she was her own (probably better!) and was SO communicative. I knew without a doubt that Ebony was getting excellent care, fuss and attention, and was having a wonderful holiday of her very own. Cannot recommend Fran highly enough, and we will definitely be booking again!”


“I contacted Drew at very short notice, to look after my 6 month old puppy for 8 nights, as my other sitter had fallen through. She responded quickly, arranging a meet and greet, and it quickly became apparent that she really knows her stuff. We booked with Drew, and throughout my pups stay I felt confident that she was getting the car she needed. Drew sent videos every day, and let me know how Maddie was getting on, showing her playing with the other dogs Drew was boarding at the time. I was confident that Maddie was having fun and being cared for well. All my requests were listened to, and Drew did a fantastic job allieviating all of my concerns leaving Maddie alone for the first time. I'll definitely be using Drew again. ?”


“Dimitra and Family were the perfect hosts for my Lily whilst I was away with work. Communication from the point of enquiry was always great and I had the pleasure of being able to visit Dimitra and Family at their home prior to making the booking, which left me well at ease and I was greatful to be able to see where Lily would be staying whilst I was away. Throughout my time away, Dimitra sent me regular updates, along with pictures, detailing Lily's daily activities etc which really helped to keep my mind at ease. It was my first time leaving lily for a prolonged period of time but Dimitra really took the time to make sure that Lily was really well cared for. I would highly recommend Dimitra to anyone looking for a comfortable stay for their furry friend and will certainly be using Dimitra again. Lily had the BEST time! Thank you again so much!”


About: Hi, I’m Kate. I had over 10 years of experience in looking after dogs. I currently have a 3 year old Boy Cockapoo who calls Coca-Cola. I’m Dog lover since a young age, so I know how to look after, basic training, walking, feeding, basic dog grooming, bathing…… Sometimes I did help my family and friends to look after walking, boarding and daycare their dogs. I have plenty of time to play/ walk/ look after your doggies! I’m available Monday to Sunday from 9am to 7 pm for dog walking/dog sitting. I offer dog sitter service. I believe some dogs maybe love to stay in their own house as feel more confident. Meet and Greet first.

“Absolutely incredible!! Emily was amazing with my Cavapoo. I received lots of updates and photos and was a home from home for my dog! She even bathed her as it was during a heatwave and washed her bedding. Will absolutely be using her again, feel very lucky to find someone so caring m. 10/10 service”

“Khushi was absolutely amazing with my dog, Ted! From the moment they met, it was clear that she has a natural connection with animals. Ted can be a bit shy at first, but he warmed up to her almost immediately — which says a lot! Khushi was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Ted was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your pet, but Khushi made it feel effortless.
