“The best dog sitter and such a lovely person! I dropped Nellie quite last minute, she was so welcoming, and her dog dill is super cute too. Had amazing photo updates and would definitely recommend! A brilliant dog sitter you can trust xx”


2. Daniel H.

“Dan and Cami are great! They asked loads of questions before looking after Winnie for the first time so we were really confident in leaving her with them. Winnie seemed to enjoy her weekend with them and they were great at sending photo updates. We’d definitely be happy for them to look after Winnie again!”


3. Ann K.

“Ann was so wonderful with our miniature dachshund Truffle! He had the best time and came back home happy and relaxed. Truffle is a rescue dog with his own little quirks and Ann was so sensitive and accommodating to his needs. We received daily updates with plenty of photos. Thank you so much Ann and hope Truffle will have a chance to stay with you again. Highly recommended!”

7. Guy H.

“Guy looked after my little, old, staffie Missy overnight at a fairly last minute booking. Guy and his partner were both great and really lovely people. They put time aside to meet me before the boarding, which I really appreciated! During the stay they kept me up to date and sent photos and when I came to collect Missy she seemed really happy and chilled. Also, their dog Remmy is adorable and was such a good partner for Missy.”


8. Susan C.

“Genevieve has taken care of our dog Sylvie on several occasions when we’ve been out of town. She communicates well with us, sending regular pictures and updates, and is responsive in organising our pet sits. She is caring and responsible, and Sylvie is always calm and content when we arrive home. We would definitely recommend Genevieve for dog/pet sitting!”

13. Lina A.

“I was so worried about leaving my dog with a sitter, but Lina did an amazing job taking care of him! I could tell in the photos she shared and by his demeanor when I went to pick him up that he felt safe and happy in Lina’s home, both with her and with little Sunny! She kept in touch with me throughout his stay and was very patient and accommodating with his various anxious behaviors. I will definitely go to Lina again and recommend her for anyone else!”


14. Jenny D.

“Jenny and James were absolutely fantastic. I’m a very protective dog mum and my dog is quite attached and can initially be a bit wary of strangers. It was the first time my fur-baby was staying away overnight and Jenny and James made me feel very at ease. Both of their dogs are lovely and provided great company for my pooch who settled in really well. I got lots of updates throughout the day and it was so reassuring to see he had a fab time. I highly recommend Jenny and I will definitely be using her services again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


15. Tim S.

“Ozzy had a lovely time at Tim’s house. Tim was very affectionate and kind and we felt incredibly calm and happy that Ozzy was with him and his partner. We will definitely rebook!”


16. Nattawattra "Jern" M.

“Jern is just absolutely amazing with my dog, who whilst is very loving and can be very relaxed- is also a bit of an anxious handful at times. ☺️ But she takes care of him so well, sends lots of lovely pupdates with pictures and takes him on lots of walks. She is always my go-to on Rover, and I would absolutely recommend to anyone. Thank you again, Jern!🥰💖🙏🙏🙏”


17. Mara P.

“Harry had a great time with Mara! She responded quickly, sent load of photos, gave Harry lots of cuddles and looked after him very well :) we would be happy to rebook!”


18. Anna C.

“Anna was brilliant, nothing more to add!”




19. Neil G.

“Neil looked after Phoebe when we went on our first holiday without her. As well as settling Phoebe in, treating her like one of his own dogs and going above and beyond, Neil also knew we were naturally sad leaving her and sent us lovely videos of Phoebe having the best holiday too. Neil’s great we will be using him again without a doubt!”


20. Molly S.

“Couldn't have asked for more, great communication from enquiry, through booking, to the stay. We had plenty of pictures of Loxy enjoying herself and she was pretty tired when she got home so must have had plenty of walking and play. Would definitely have Loxy stay with Molly again!”
