“Selma took time to get our rescued young GSD used to her by arranging two meet and greets. He was immediately relaxed in her home environment and with the calm energy Selma projects. Such a relief to find such a lovely lady to trust with our dog. Thank you!”

“Genevieves calm mannor made her a perfect match for our excitable German shepherd. offers a comfortable , relaxed and spacious home from home environment with large garden meaning she can easily accommodate larger dogs like ours . Helped us out last minute - when our original sitter let us down with an hours notice, she came straight over after I messaged. Genevieve is a calm , confident and caring sitter and we can't thank her enough for helping us out so last minute”

“Stephen did a grand job looking after Ziggy for us while we were away for a week at a place where we weren't allowed to take him. Stephen is very conveniently located for the Channel Tunnel Shuttle crossing. He was kind and caring with our dog, followed our guidance and sent us daily photo updates. Thank you Stephen.”

“Denitsa was a fantastic sitter. From first meet to daily updates. I appreciated that my dog was safe and in good hands and in a comfortable setting. Denitsa sent daily updates and I could clearly see how happy my dog was. I had great confidence and the reassurance whilst away my dog was in great hands.”

“Like the other reviews said, Mark was amazing looking after both Harry and Ralph. We got regular photo updates of our boys having the best time and smiles on their faces. Harry and Ralph quickly built a bond with Mark and would definitely be using Mark again when we need a dog sitter! Thanks Mark x”

“Hughie had a wonderful time with Shane and Moose. We got lots of pics and updates about the walks and beach fun they were having, and cute pics of them chilling out after all that playtime. All was fab, would highly recommend Shane.”

About: Derek and I have only ever had rescue dogs, not puppies. We appreciate they have had a rough start and need time and patience and lots of encouragement to feel safe and comfortable. We have do looked after multiple friends dogs over the years and have decided that we could help others to have a decent break/work/holiday knowing that their loved furry friend is in capable, safe care. We have rescued older dogs as they get overlooked. We have had to house train kenneled dogs - it’s been a challenge!! But worth it 🤩 I am currently available daily and will have plenty of time with your doggo. My husband works from home so there is always someone around. Walks in our local woods and playtime on the garden will be frequent. Chill time is also important. Dogs are allowed on the sofa so will feel welcome if that’s their thing😊 We have a secure fenced garden. We have a 13 year old Parsons terrier- Steve - he is chilled and loves dog company. We have a lovely wooded walk close by which is shady on those hot days. I will be happy to send pics/ updates of your pooch as often as you feel will be helpful to ensure you are also happy your dog is happy 😊 we can arrange that when we meet. Our home becomes your pets home for the duration of the stay. We will discuss your preferences so that we can maintain the routines/ boundaries that you have in place for your dog. Husband Derek works from home so there is always someone around

About: Hi! I’m your dog’s dedicated "Aunty," offering a reliable, calm, and trustworthy home boarding experience. Having recently lost my own beloved dog, I know how vital peace of mind is. I promise to love and care for your furry family member just like my own, ensuring they are settled so you can truly relax. As a full-time remote worker, I am always here to supervise. Your dog will enjoy free reign of my secure home and garden, alongside exciting walks through our beautiful countryside, north downs and Folkestone Warren to name but a few. To keep minds active, I provide fun sniffing games and mental puzzles, balanced with endless snuggles and quiet downtime. The Details: Requirements: Dogs must be house-trained (puppies welcome and accommodated!). Guests must tolerate cats, as my independent resident kitty keeps to herself. Peace of Mind: I offer initial meet-and-greets, plus discounted short "practice stays" before longer visits to ensure a perfect fit. Spaces are limited for a truly tailored, boutique experience. Get in touch today to chat about your dog's next stay! 🐶❤️ I work full time from home. Your dog will have free run of my house and garden. You tell me your routine and I will do my best to follow it. Most likely a good morning walk before breakfast, another around lunchtime and an evening stroll around the block. Obviously in extreme heat or torrential rain I will be a little flexible. I don't mind a muddy dog as long as your dog doesn't mind a bath! I have a fenced garden and he /she will be able to spend as much time outside as they chose or ask to go. They are welcome on furniture and I am happy for them to sleep upstairs with me. I just want them to feel safe and loved whilst they are here.

“This was the first time we have left Willow with someone overnight as we had to travel away for a family event. Sophie was very pleasant and kept us up to date with photos and messages. Willow was totally relaxed within minutes of us leaving her and was very well looked after throughout her stay. We are so happy to have found Sophie and her family and would most definitely recommend her and would most definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and various pets throughout my life! I have experience with both large and small breeds of dogs as well as cats. Growing up we always had dogs in the house, and never less than 4! Because I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, I would say I have quite the love for them along with the experience for caring for them. Because I’ve been given the opportunity to care for dogs from young to old, energetic to reserved my entire life, I know how to accommodate to the dogs needs and be knowledgable enough to know what the dog needs most. Wether it’s a shorter walk due to arthritis or more physical time outside to burn off some energy, you can be certain your dogs needs will be met and they will be loved on! I work fully remote and from home. I go on walks daily in the morning, afternoon and evening, so I am happy to bring along your dog or visit your home to take them on walks :-) All plants/ Potential hazards are always removed before welcoming a dog or cat into my home. Dogs will be walked with a lead unless otherwise specified by owner!

“Christine and her husband are both very warm and friendly people who welcomed Barney with open arms. He was very happy to run straight up to them for a fuss, and clearly felt right at home. I received updates from Christine while we were away, and when we arrived to collect Barney he was very much part of their home, and you could tell he was very happy there. Christine was very careful to follow our care notes, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. In fact, I've made a second booking!”

“Jazz is wonderfully down-to-earth, and her experience, attentiveness, and genuine care are clear from the moment you meet her. We were initially anxious, as Murphy had only ever stayed with family before, but she looked after him so well that he didn’t seem to miss us at all. As this was a first meet, we were offered a meet-and-greet prior to booking which was a great way to have our dog get a feel for the environment beforehand. She followed his routine closely and kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which made a huge difference in putting our minds at ease. It’s such a relief to know we can leave Murphy in a safe, loving home environment. We highly recommend Jazz to anyone looking for dog boarding. Thanks again Jazz, we look forward to next time!”

About: Hey, my name is Jay. I have a Black Lab called Mabel and a German Shep called Martha. Both of whom are well behaved and trained myself / in training. I offer a variety of services and am blessed to have lot's of facilities to my, and your pet's, advantage. Including a Land Rover kitted out for transport should it be required, as well as a stunning location based at the bottom of the White Cliffs of Dover allowing for lot's of walks along the cliffs, into the fields or along the beach and even a swim! Alternatively we can go directly into town. My property is also big enough to have a very private garden with 6+ foot walls surrounding the place ensuring it is very secure. I also house a parrot, variety of fish and in the past have had multiple hamsters and too many guinea pigs and rabbits to count! I love animals and would be honoured to take care of yours! P.S - as a bonus I provide quality photography of your pet if requested, free of charge! Just a little extra for booking with me. You can see some of my imagery on my profile! :) I’ve recently taken a significant amount of time away from my regular work to care for my own dogs and dedicate my time fully to animal care. This means I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pet my full attention, day or night, alongside my own animals. I provide a safe, structured, and highly attentive environment for every pet in my care, whether in my own home or the owner’s home. At my home, pets are looked after in a secure property with a large private garden enclosed by 6+ foot walls, ensuring safety at all times. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and I am able to give them constant supervision and interaction throughout the day. They have access to regular walks tailored to their needs, including local field walks, coastal walks along the White Cliffs of Dover, and beach outings where appropriate. I also ensure they have a calm space to rest and settle comfortably inside the home. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I maintain their usual routine as closely as possible to reduce stress and keep them comfortable in familiar surroundings. This includes feeding schedules, exercise routines, playtime, medication if required, and plenty of companionship. Across all services, I prioritise safety, consistency, and individual attention. I have experience with a range of animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they are well cared for, stimulated, and happy throughout my time with them.

About: I have been brought up around dogs and more recently my partner and I volunteered at a dog shelter with over 100 dogs, we spent a month learning dog behaviour, cleaning, feeding and walking gentle giants. We are both calm natured and believe love and kindness bring out the best in dogs. We have been around rescue dogs that have nervous tendencies and they learnt to trust us over the time we were volunteering. We are avid walkers so we are happy with energetic dogs, also love cuddles for the lazier ones. I am currently working from home freelance so I have a lot of time and can work from anywhere. We are both very flexible and can happily stay out. I have a lot of experience with dogs big and small, I will be able to walk, feed and give your pets the attention and love they need and want. My weekly routine is very flexible due to the nature of my work and working from home. I am able to choose my hours of work I welcome pets into my home as if they were my own, I have a small garden they can run around in with high walls so owners will be confident that their pets will be safe in my home and garden I have a ground floor flat with it’s own entrance and private garden.
