“Murphy had a wonderful stay with Hugh and Garvie. Lots of forest walks, and very well cared for. Murphy had Garvie had great times playing & walking together and sleeping side by side afterwards. Hugh provided regular and daily updates. Perfect peace of mind when away. Am sure Murphy will love to return for his next holiday!”


5. Donald M.

“Our spaniel Rosie had a wonderful stay with Donald and Margaret. She is a sensitive wee dog and we knew very quickly she was going to settle by her behaviour. When we picked her up she was super happy and very comfortable there, sitting beside Donald and Margaret and smiling. Highly recommend & we will definitely use Donald again when we need a sitter. Thanks so much. Xx”

About: I retired from full time work a few years ago, so I now have loads of time on a daily basis to allocate to dog walking/sitting/drop-in visits/boarding. I have been a dog owner/carer since 2010. In that time, I have cared for my dog, Cody. Cody had epilepsy and also a heart condition. Therefore I also have experiance in administering oral medication to a rather reluctant dog. I was lucky enough to be Cody's owner for almost 12 of the best years ever. When Cody and I went for a walk, it was very much Cody taking me for a walk rather than the other way round. I believe that's the way it should be. It's the dogs time to do what a dog needs to do, it's the Owner's responsibility to ensure the walk is done in a relaxed and safe manner. I'm now the owner of a very lovable Maltese Terrier. Toby had been my Sister-In-Laws dog since birth and is now 7 years old. I have been Toby's owner since August 2024. So, if you're looking for a reliable dog carer with loads of time for your dog, then let me know. I retired from full time work a few years ago, so I now have loads of time on a daily basis to allocate to dog walking/sitting/drop-in visits/boarding. I have a very friendly 7 year old male Maltese Terrier to keep your dog company. As with my own dog, your dog is free to roam anywhere within my house and within my fenced in back garden. My house is a bungalow, so no stairs to worry about. I can and do spend a lot of time ensuring my dog is as safe and comfortable as possible. I will do the same for your dog.


8. Stephanie M.

“Steph & Nathan provided excellent care for Woody. He was treated like one of their own and got on well with their dog Jax. I was provided with regular updates & pics which I found most helpful. I would have no hestitation in recommending Steph as a sitter.”
9. Lauren N.

“Lauren was a great host who looked after Rory brilliantly ? she kept us informed with posts and pictures meaning we could relax on holiday knowing our boy was being well cared for. We will be using Lauren again and I think Rory is missing her a wee bit. Thanks again Lauren”


10. Jennifer M.

“Our lab had a great time with Jennifer! He's still quite young and this was the longest we'd been away without him, so we loved seeing the photo updates of what he'd been up to. This reassured us he was in great hands. Given the choice I think he'd have stayed longer!”


11. Samira F.

“Samira is a wonderfully patient host to my anxious wee sausage dog.She sends videos and photos while taking great care of your pet providing reassurance. Thank you Samira.”


12. Louise L.

“Louise and her family took great care of our dog Kodi. Keeping us updated with messages and sending pictures keeping our minds at ease. I would recommend Louise very highly as a dog sitter as she and her family clearly love dogs. When I am looking for someone to look after Kodi again, I will have Louise as my 1st choice every time.”


13. Rosie H.
About: I live near both the beach and countryside and can offer a variety of different styles of walks to suit different dogs. I have been walking, feeding and taking care of a variety of different dog breeds my whole life. Friends and family would say I am a very trustworthy and loving pet sitter. I am available mid week for walks and drop ins and evening and weekends as and when required. I can be flexible to suit you. I have lots of outdoor open space and live 2 minutes from the beach/a variety of country walks. I have one small dog who would love to keep your fur baby company. I am very trustworthy and reliable and would respect your home as if it was my own.


14. Kirsty S.

“Kirsty and her partner hosted Charlie so well I’m not sure he was that convinced to come home to us 😆 Well looked after and well travelled (kept updated with Charlie’s tourist snaps!) he was knackered when he came home. Thank you Kirsty! Hope to visit again. Highly recommended.”


15. Nicole O.
“Nicole has looked after our family pets many times, and they always come back happy and tired. Sometimes they even learn a new trick. She's great with our high energy dogs and always takes them long walks to tire them out!”


16. Kiera W.

“Kiera is lovely. She is very responsive to messages and sent us lots of photos and reassurance that Evie was happy and being well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kiera to look after your pooch in her lovely home!”

18. Ceris M.

“Our Munro had the best time ever! Ceri was amazing and I would 100% like to have our dog stay with her again. On top of that, Ceri is just the nicest person .”


19. Harry L.

“Harry has been so loving and caring for our old dog and treated her like it’s his own. He’s been very good with keeping in touch with pictures and even treated her with a bone. You can tell that he loves Dogs. Would definitely recommend Harry to take care of your fur baby and trust him. It’s a great holiday away for your dog as well with plenty of walks! Will definitely be using his service again!!”


20. Lauren C.

“Lauren did an amazing job looking after Misty while we were away. Misty has always suffered from separation anxiety as she is a rescue pup so finding a dog sitter who was able to treat Misty as one of her own is such a relief. Misty got loads of playtime at the beach and snuggles on the sofa at night. She is looking forward to her next visit in July 😊”
