“Marina was an excellent sitter. We met in a local park close to where he would be staying before first so he could have a good sniff around before his daycare. Benji settled in well. Marina provided lots of feedback and photo updates throughout the day, was very communicative and approachable. Would definitely use again 🐶 thank you!”

About: I provide reliable, loving care and treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m attentive to each dog’s routine, whether that means energetic walks for younger dogs or gentle care for puppies and senior dogs. I’m patient, responsible, and always keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and safe. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and attention. I enjoy spending time with dogs and plan my schedule so they receive the care and companionship they need. I provide safe, reliable, and loving pet care in both my home and the owner’s home. I follow each dog’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m experienced with different temperaments, including puppies and senior dogs, and I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
“Alice is an amazing carer. Communication was fantastic, timing always on the spot, and her love of dogs is clearly evident. Aoife had a fab time at day care and quickly became best buddies with Tofu.”


About: Along with caring for friends’ and family dogs, I had my own dog for 16½ wonderful years, which gave me experience with dogs of all ages and personalities, including senior care. I provide loving one-on-one attention, walks, playtime, and a calm home environment where dogs can feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I live in a spacious house with a secure, pleasant garden where dogs have plenty of room to run, play, and relax. Morden Hall Park is just across the street, so daily walks and outdoor time are always part of the routine. Dogs staying with me have access to comfortable beds, toys, fresh bottled water, treats, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. When I go to my office, which is based in the same area, dogs are welcome to come with me, where they also have a cozy space with beds, toys, water, and company. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and included at all times. For senior dogs and dogs who don't like long walks, pram is available for their comfort, so they can still enjoy plenty of outdoor time. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable home environment for dogs staying with me. There are currently no children or other pets in the house, which allows me to give each dog plenty of individual attention and supervision. I only board one or a maximum of two dogs at a time and only accept small to medium-sized friendly breeds to ensure a relaxed and stress-free environment for everyone. Dogs are supervised at all times and are never left alone for long periods. My home has a secure garden for safe outdoor play, and Morden Hall Park is just across the street for regular walks and exercise. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, and any special care needs to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and at home.
“Really happy with the day care experience. It was a last minute booking due to a work crisis but very quick reply and support which really put my mind at rest. Oscar had a great time and I was sent some lovely photos throughout the day. Will definately look to use again.”


“Loki is really comfortable with Rahim, Carly and Thea and loves spending time with them. That's all I can ask for and they always keep me updated through the day. Will definately be booking in again.”

“Sophia was amazing! First time to book a day care service with her. And we were so delighted that Loki looked so happy, no doubt he had a lovely day. Thanks for picking up and dropping off Loki! Sophia was so kind, she kept us updated with photos and video and constantly messaging about Loki’s activities. I highly recommend her and will avail for her service if we need to book again.”

“Anna has been taking care of Willow, my nearly 1 year old cockapoo since she was about 4 months old either for walks or doggy day care. She knows about dogs and I've learnt a lot from her. She is kind, compassionate and so reliable. I get lots of updates throughout the day which is reassurinf. Even when I have last minute work commitments Anna has always been approachable and willing and able to help. Willow loves spending time with Anna, her daughter and their Yorkie Roxy. I can't recommend Anna enough.”

James and Claire looked after our 8-month-old puppy for the day, and she had the most wonderful time. They have a large, secure garden, which was perfect for our playful and sociable dog, and she loved spending time with their two lovely dogs as well. James went above and beyond by sending us regular updates throughout the day, including photos and videos of our precious pup, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear that she was happy, well cared for, and thoroughly enjoyed her day. We wouldn't hesitate to use their services again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable dog sitters.
Laura looked after Hugo for the day and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She has a lovely home with a great garden and plenty of grass for dogs to enjoy. Despite the wet weather, she still made sure Hugo got out for walks and he came home happily tired. Laura was warm, friendly, and clearly very comfortable around dogs. Hugo is still a young puppy and can be quite a handful at times, but she handled him brilliantly and followed all of his care instructions carefully. I felt completely at ease leaving him with her and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future. Highly recommended.

We have left Rocky with Aleksandra a few times over the past few weeks. Rocky loves it, you can tell he feels really at home and is really calm and happy when we pick him up (he’s a very anxious boy usually). Can’t reccomend enough! Has been an absolute game changer to have someone we trust, who is also super flexible around work plans changing etc. thank you!!
I didn’t hesitate to book Kelsey again. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Nacho was staying cool and enjoying excellent company while I was out in the heat with my grandkids all day. Kelsey is reliable, caring, and always takes great care of him. Highly recommend!
