Irina and her husband took such good care of our dog Olive. We got lots of photo updates and felt assured she was loved in our absence. Very reliable, flexible and quick to reply. Highly recommend.

Lucy was clearly in good company because she barely wanted to come back with me and watched Irina and her lovely family walk away until they were out of sight! Would recommend and definitely rebook!

Our cocker spaniel Leo, was very well cared for by Jess for the evening. We had previously met for a walk to allow Leo and Otis to get to know each other ….they got on well! We received regular updates throughout the evening and felt very comfortable leaving Leo him with her. We would certainly recommend Jess and look

Nicola was brilliant with Bryn, taking care to help him settle in and sending us updates during the evening. It was his first time sleeping over with someone he didn't know, and he seemed to have had a smooth experience. We felt in safe hands and would definitely recommend Nicola.

Susan looked after my dog twice, the first time after very short notice. Linus can can whine and have some anxiety but she was able to manage him. She has a lovely garden and a very sweet pug to keep your dog company. I’d certainly leave my dog with her again.

Conor and Alex are amazing! Such lovely people who are great at communicating with humans and dogs. We left our dog with them for 2 weeks- the longest we have been away from her. It was so reassuring to see how happy she was to see them again. It was lovely to have all the updates they sent- this made it easier to enjoy our holiday. She doesn’t trust easily but she actually adores them. So glad we found them!

We were so worried about leaving our fearful pup with someone else, but honestly, we couldn't have found better care than with Ivan. Everything was absolutely perfect—the communication, flexibility with our last minute change, his place and garden, and the daily walks. We loved the tons of pictures and video updates. Pippa came back home very happy and ready for a long nap after so much fun with her new friends :) Thank you so much, Ivan.

Michela was absolutely amazing! She treated Paddy like he was her own, giving him so much love and making sure he had a fun-filled week while we were away. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, ensuring he had lots of activity and cuddles, she kept us updated with lots of photos and videos of their adventures, which really reassured us that he was in safe hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, Paddy can’t wait for our next holiday, so he can stay with Michela again!

I needed a last minute pet sitter for a lengthy amount of time and Kamala was quick to respond and eager to help. My mini dachshund can be a little anxious around new people and environments and Kamala was incredibly patient and understanding with him! I received multiple updates throughout the day so I knew he was well taken care of. Her dog Lolly is also the sweetest and it was calming to know my pup was never fully alone and had a friend during his stay. My pup was definitely sad to leave his new friends but we will be back! Great experience for both of us!! Would definitely recommend Kamala!!

Aidan was absolutely incredible with my dogs, Zaza (German Shepherd) and Roger (Dalmatian). I had an unexpected situation due to my niece’s allergy, and I urgently needed someone I could trust — Aidan stepped in without hesitation. He kept all five puppies with him along with the mama and baba dogs for the entire night, and handled everything so calmly and professionally. That level of care and flexibility meant a lot during a stressful time. He kept me constantly updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which gave me real peace of mind. You can clearly tell he genuinely loves dogs. He took them out for walk, made sure they were comfortable, and has a great garden space for them to use whenever needed. What really stood out was how well he understood my situation — no judgment, just pure support and professionalism. On top of that, he is very reasonably priced, which makes his service even more exceptional. Honestly, Aidan will always be the first person that comes to mind whenever I need someone to look after my dogs. I cannot recommend him highly enough — an excellent dog keeper and a genuinely good person.
