6. oliver w.
“Oli is very caring and has had a dog of his own for 10 years so he knows how to look after them and handle them. He recently looked after my 13 week old puppy who is quite scared around new people but everything went smoothly with no problems.”


7. Katherine C.

“Katherine was brilliant with our 2 dogs while we were away on holiday. She was in constant communication and sent lots of pics over which really made us feel at ease.”


8. Karla E.
“Karla was amazing with Manolo. They instantly matched when they met which made me comfortable when leaving him. He is a very needy pug and she spoiled him with love all weekend. Manolo was calm and even seemed sad to leave her which is always a good sign for me. Definitely recommend and will come back.”


9. Selin C.
“Selin has been excellent with my cat on numerous occasions now, really paying attention to her daily routine to ensure that there isn't any change to it at all. Throughout each visit, she sends pictures and messages us to ensure we're reassured and has really earned our trust and to top that off, she's been really flexible as we only have one key so she's had to work around us a lot on many occasions and always does so with patience and joy! Couldn't recommend enough, your pet will be in good hands!”


10. Oliver F.

“Adrienne visited the dogs a couple of times before this weekend, the dogs loved her and she clearly loves them. Kept us informed on the dogs progress all weekend, especially when there was a storm at home while we were away. Adrienne and left our house perfect, we arrived home to two very happy dogs. we will most definitely be using Adrianne again.”


14. Jack & Matt S.

“I want to express my heartfelt thanks to Jack for taking care of my three dogs. He is incredibly attentive and reliable, and he treated my dogs with great care. I understand that managing three dogs with different personalities isn't easy, but Jack handled it wonderfully. When Atmos managed to ruin the sofa, he promptly informed me and shared a photo, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Jack as a dog sitter!”


15. Chin Ching C.

“Chin Ching did an amazing job looking after Ronnie for 4 nights. Ronnie is a really anxious/reactive rescue dog and Chin Ching made him feeling extremely comfortable and content the whole time. He can be challenging on a walk and Chin Ching was able to manage him well and keep him calm. Arrived promptly and sent plenty of updates. I had no doubt Ronnie was in very good hands! I would highly recommend using Chin Ching and will certainly be asking for them to dog sit Ronnie again.”


16. Samuel Y.
“Sam has always been so reliable with my dog! Anytime I need him to be there he is. He is really lovely and the pets love him!”


17. Mohammed S.
“Mohammed has an incredible connection with all animals, but his love for dogs knows no limits! Mohammed has looked after our dogs on multiple occasions and he goes above and beyond to make sure that they are well looked after and receive lots of cuddles and attention. Sometimes I think our dogs love Mohammed more than us!”


18. Rhian M.
“Rhian is someone who I trust implicitly to look after my two cats for me while I’m away, to a level that matches the care they receive from me. Finding someone who you have that confidence in isn’t easy, but her care and attention is evident and is reflected in my cats, who are relaxed and happy whenever she has cared for them. She’s professional, friendly and her love for animals is clear to see. If you want to be able to fully relax in the knowledge that your pets are safe and well cared for, I can’t recommend Rhian enough.”


19. Genevieve K.
“Genevieve did a great job looking after my dogs while I was on holiday. She stayed with them in my apartment and sent me regular updates with photos. I came back to 2 very happy and relaxed dogs - I can highly recommend her!”


20. Kirsten B.
“I’ve known Kirsten her whole life and she loves dogs of all shapes and sizes. When she was younger her family had two labradors that she absolutely adored. Proceeding this they now have three pugs, she enjoys nothing more than visiting her parents house to see them at every opportunity. She always puts the dogs’s needs above her own and would do anything to see them happy,healthy and safe. She recently had to take a very active role in the care of her flatmate’s dog also, as the owner had a very hectic schedule,kirsten had to step in very regularly and at very short notice to care for the cocker spaniel.”
