This is the third time Piper has stayed with John. She now bounds up his front path, and when I picked her up, after a joyful great of me, she ran back and jumped into John's lap! She then sat on his carpet and didn't want to leave when I got up to go. To find a sitter she is so happy to be with is a testament to John's approach to dogs and gives me huge relief. Piper highly recommends, as do I.

We started using dog sitters 9 years ago and for the past 5 years specifically, we've been using Rover; we can say confidently that Louisa is the best we've ever had, and we would never change her! You can clearly see the care, passion, and professionalism that she puts in when she has a pet in her care. And not just from her, but her children as well! She sends daily feedback full of details and fun stories of your pet's day, which are always entertaining with her witty and hilarious commentary. After more than 3 times that Leo has stayed with her, you can see how he's become a member of their family too and has found his holiday home! He has never been more comfortable with any other dog sitter; and thanks to Louisa and her family, Leo has had tons of fun, new experiences that unfortunately we often couldn't give him due to time constrictions. So we've learned new things about our dog too and how he is in those new environments. We've already planned our next few stays for Leo, which we've never felt comfortable to do before as often as now with our peace of mind. Thank you Louisa! 🥰

Our second stay with Kathy and she was as brilliant as always. Teddy ran straight into her house when we arrived and it was so clear that he was really happy to be there straight away! Kathy gave lovely updates of what they were up to and it was great to see how much he was being cared for. We will absolutely book Kathy again and would definitely recommend her to others.

I can’t recommend Hyoeun highly enough! My Bruk spent three weeks with her and came back a relaxed, happy boy. He enjoyed lovely daily walks and plenty of belly rubs. I received regular photo updates, and it was clear from the pictures that Bruk felt completely at home and was thoroughly spoiled by Hyoeun and her family. Thank you so much for everything you did for Bruk—we’ll definitely see you again soon! xx

An absolute gem of a person. She was so warm and welcoming towards the both of us from the moment we entered her house, and treated Egan like her own child! She has a lovely family who all spoiled him rotten with cuddles and scratches and made him feel safe and happy throughout his stay. I would receive photo and video updates almost every day without even having to ask, and he got loads of outdoor time because they are a very active family! Egan seemed totally contented and relaxed in every video and I believe he became quite attached to Ivy and her family. They are kind, generous, hardworking people, and the best hands to leave your pet in♥️

Katie and Lorimer were excellent with Alfie. He is quite nervous when meeting new people but they gave him space until he felt comfortable with them.They took him for lots of lovely walks and gave him lots of play time in the garden. They kept us updated with plenty of photos of him which kept our minds at ease as this was the first time we had ever left him with a pet sitter. Would highly recommend them and will be using them again.
