Dongmei and Thomas took care of Ovie for three nights, and I genuinely could not have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, they were incredibly willing and keen to understand everything about Ovie to ensure he was cared for exactly as he needed. During our meet and greet, they asked thoughtful, detailed questions and really took the time to get to know him. They also showed me the beautiful park next to their apartment and their lovely, spacious home, including a large deck which Ovi clearly enjoyed. Throughout his stay, they kept me completely at ease by sending multiple photos and updates each day. Ovie typically takes a little time to feel comfortable with new people, but it was clear from both the pictures and his behaviour when I picked him up that he was very happy and relaxed around them. They were incredibly accommodating, managed his high energy levels very well, and truly treated him as if he were their own. They even bought treats for him and played games to keep him engaged and stimulated. I would not hesitate for a second to book with Dongmei and Thomas again. Highly recommended.

Nelefiaa has effectively looked after Champ what’s four weekends in a row! I had a weekend courses back to back and had zero worries leaving Champ with her! Good and clear comms, how much she cares for dogs is extremely clear. I’m really grateful to her - definitely helped me focus on my course because of her wonderful care towards Champ

Alessia was really quick and clear in her correspondence. Asked all the questions I’d expect her to ask to make sure she knew Astras likes, dislikes and needs. Very friendly and accommodating, she explained how her home would be Astra’s home for the night. Alessia was also very much tuned in to the extreme hot weather, and made sure Astra was exercised early in the morning and, temperatures permitting, again in the evening. She messaged through Astras stay to let me know how she was. I could tell she had a great time given all the licks Astra gave Alessia when it was time to come home : ) Wouldn’t hesitate to have Astra will with Alessia for a sleepover again.

Ashleigh was a dream sitter for Finchy's first overnighter. Very communicative and attentive while I was away on a stag do. Kept him comfy and occupied all day and night. You can see how much Ashleigh loves dogs and enjoys the responsibility. Very happy to hear Finchy got on so well with little Lexi as well. We'll be back soon, no doubt. Thank you!

Joshua looked after our dog Mew yesterday and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. He kept us updated throughout the evening with plenty of pictures and videos, which was really reassuring and lovely to see. Mew looked so happy and clearly had a great time. His dog Ovie is such a sweetie - so calm, friendly, and well behaved. He was a great companion for Mew to play with and learn from. I would highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter, and we will definitely be booking with him again in the future!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for looking after Champ last weekend, and even Monday too! I could tell he had the best time, I loved the updates and he came back so calm and happy. She just gets his funny little personality and that means everything. Really appreciate how wonderful you were with him and I'm already looking forward to booking again!

Jenny was amazing. We relocated from Europe and she took delivery of Shadow 2 days before I could get to the UK. She cuddled, loved and photographed her for me to help ease my stress! Shadow loved being with the other dogs and I was rather worried she wouldn't want to leave she was having such a great time! I'm more than happy and would recommend Jenny to anyone!!

I can highly recommend Barbara, Mario and Coco! They were incredible at communication and sent a lot of photos/videos of Charlie while we were away. They went to the beach, the park and the dogs had lot of playtime together. I was very nervous leaving Charlie with strangers for the first time but they made the whole process super easy. Charlie was a very happy dog when we picked him up. We will definitely use them again ??

Some might call me a “nervous dog mum”, but Isil & Ayhan put me at ease immediately during our meet and greet. They were so welcoming and calm that my dog didn’t want to leave! They are incredibly professional, thorough, and knowledgeable. They sent plenty of updates and were always quick to respond. I will definitely be using them again and couldn’t recommend them more highly if you’re looking for a dog sitter. 5++ stars!

We arranged a meet and greet beforehand, which helped Uma settle in nicely, and the pick-up and drop-off went very smoothly. She sent lots of photos and updates every day, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Uma was happy and well looked after. I would absolutely book with Kamala again and highly recommend her to anyone :)
