“Sarah was brilliant with my dog who is quite anxious and fussy! My dog had the best adventures and so much attention that I don’t think he missed us. I loved seeing the pictures of what they were getting up to and we were able to relax knowing he was well cared for. Thank you so much Sarah”
“Very caring couple who made sure our 8 month old puppy had everything she needed to be comfortable during her stay. They were more than happy to follow her existing routines. They sent lots of updates and photos during her stay which were very reassuring. She seemed to really bond with Nicola & Rebecca and returned home very happy and relaxed!”
“Daisy loved being with Joyce and Lilly, she seemed a happy little doggy when I picked her up. We would definitely recommend Joyce and we will be booking Daisy in again ***** 🌟 Kathy.”
“I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with Bettyna and her family again. They took such good care of her and she settled in really well. So much so she didn't want to come home! Thank you so much for looking after Sky!”
“We had never left our dog Thalia with a dog sitter before that we didn't know so we were very hesitant and nervous. However, Kwan and her family put us at ease immediately when we met them for an introduction. We were sent regular photos and video updates over the week and all questions were answered. We needn't have worried. Kwan took very good care of Thalia and we could see on the videos that she was happy and settled. We highly recommend leaving you dog with Kwan as she will take very good care of your treasured pet. We would definitely leave Thalia again without any worries at all. Thank you and see you again.”
“I would definitely recommend using Ruth as a dogsitter and we hope to use her again in the future. She looked after our cockapoo Amber ( who is quite nervous) and I can honestly say Amber has never been as calm and content after staying with anyone else. She kept us updated with how Amber was doing which was very re-assuring.”
“Claudia can to my rescue when I was let down at the last minute and I honestly couldn’t thank her enough !! She was very lovely and professional.Claudia took fabulous care of my English bulldog I can not thank Claudia enough. Claudia gave me daily updates and photos too. I’ll be booking Pablo with Claudia in the future she’s amazing taking extremely good care off your dog. My Pablo takes medication daily and Claudia was happy doing this. Again thank you so much ?”
“Thank you Olivia! I was happy to receive so many pictures and updates during Yubyubs boarding days. As said, for me it was really good to see that she was laying down belly up in her bed. I could tell by her face that she was happy and taken care of.”
“Our Frenchie has had as good a time as us on holiday Great communication with Wes, did prior dog walks and stay over to ensure our Frenchie fitted in with Wes’s lovely pair of Frenchies. Wes kept us updated with pictures and allowed us to relax whilst on holiday. Would highly recommend Wes as a dog boarder and will definitely be using Wes again. 🐶”
“Michael was brilliant, and the best care I've had for my dog yet! He and his family truly love dogs and that is reflected in the care they provided. Communication before and during the stay was brilliant and I could tell on pick up how comfortable my dog was with them. I would book again in a heartbeat!”
“I cannot begin to explain just how happy and grateful I am to this beautiful and caring couple. Its the first time we have left our cat with anyone and was so nervous about doing so but from the very first time we took her to meet them it was clear how professional and caring they are. Also it was such a beautiful touch sending pictures and videos daily of them all playing and it allowed us to enjoy our trip much more knowing our baby is so happy back home. To say I would highly recommend them is such an under statement because booking trips away for us now can be done with no worries at all knowing miso will be happy too.”
“Karolina looked after my very nervous cat and naughty chihuahua when I was moving house. I was quite apprehensive but Karolina immediately put me at ease when I dropped them off and she welcomed the pets. She knew exactly what to do to calm them down and I left feeling reassured they were in good hands. She sent me some cute photos of them during the day and they looked perfectly comfortable. I would definitely go back to her and would recommend her.”
“Hollie took excellent care of our border collie whilst we were on holiday. She was also kind enough to pick up and drop off, which helped us massively. Hollie sent us photos of Misty during her stay and it was obvious she was very comfortable in Hollie’s company. Hollie has a lovely, spacious home and an enclosed garden that Misty enjoyed exploring. Hollie’s communication was excellent throughout. I would definitely recommend Hollie for your dog-minding or walking needs.”
“Shirley was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Elmo! She took such great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay, sending us plenty of lovely pictures which really put our minds at ease. It was so nice to see how happy and settled Elmo was. We could tell he was having a great time, and that made us happy too! 😊 We really appreciated Shirley’s care, communication and kindness. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and would happily have her look after Elmo again. Thank you so much, Shirley! 🐾❤️”
“Highly recommended, such a nice couple who gave my German Shepherd all the love she needs and more. Great with communication and quick replies, I felt very relaxed knowing she was being so well looked after. Thanks Becky”
“Absolutely fantastic! The girls were friendly and welcoming and offered a short meet and greet before our dog stayed overnight with them where they made a fuss of our pup so she would feel comfortable. Eleanor was in regular contact throughout my dog’s stay with her, sending photos and short videos to put our minds at ease. Our dog was clearly happy and well cared for throughout her stay. I will absolutely book again for our next trip away. I highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we have been away from 4 year old Gracie, however after the meet and greet we were 110% she would be cared for, spoilt and loved. And so Annabelle gave us regular updates on settling in, and what Gracie had been up to. Although she was super pleased to see us when we picked her up, when Annabelle phoned about Gracie's feeding bowl as we were leaving and came out to us in the car, Gracie's little tail was going like a propeller 🥰. What more could you ask for, other than for Gracie to write the review herself. Anabelle, Thank you so much for loving Gracie as much as we do xxx She obviously had a fabulous time xxx”

“Isla has taken amazing care of our three cats. Her love for animals is clear to see, she has established a great connection with them in a short space of time through her empathy, calming pressece and kindness. Isla's profile stood out straight away and after learning about her own pets we were confident she could support the needs of our elderly cat. Isla has done an amazing job and we look forward to her visiting again. Thank you Isla!”
“As usual Jane took care of my two horrors. I am pretty sure they were upset when I reappeared today rather than Jane. I didn’t have to worry about them at all. I can’t recommend this lady enough!”
About: I’ve lived with cats all my life and also looked after a few feral barn cats on the farm so I understand their language, their pace, and their boundaries. I don’t force affection or overstimulate, I let them lead. I pay attention to small details their body language and comfort signals, preferences and routines. Every cat is different and I adapt to who they are! My goal is to make sure hey stay happy while there with me💕
“Indiana has been brilliant from start to finish, i couldnt recommend her enough. She is quick at responding and came round for a meet and greet within a few days, her experience and knowledge showed in conversation. She has provided really good updates on my cats whilst ive been away including pictures which i loved. She communicated if there was any problems with getting to my house on time which i appreciated. Ive been able to relax knowing my babies are in good hands. I will use her again in the future.”
About: I provide calm, reliable pop-in care for cats in their own homes, helping them stay relaxed while you’re away. I’ve also been a cat owner myself for many years, so I understand their routines, behaviours, and how important it is to keep things familiar for them. I carry out pop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, litter checks, and giving attention and play (if they want it!). I’m always patient and happy to go at each cat’s pace, whether they’re confident or a little more shy. I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and already trusted by local pet owners for dog walking and pet care, so your cat will be in safe hands.

About: About 20 years ago, our family got two miniature Schnauzers and I've been a dog lover ever since! Now that I've moved out and now live with my fiancee (Raissa, pictured) we miss having the company of dogs and before we get one of our own would like to trial having them in our lives on a more short term basis. We both work from home, so can have someone at home at all hours of the day. We have no children in the house and a secure garden. We have recent experience of looking after dogs for weeks at a time and know lots of good walks near our home too! Ideally looking for smaller hypoallergenic dogs, but would be open to other breeds. We both work full time for the same company with one office day required per week which we do on Weds and Thursday - so someone is always at home every week day. Generally we'd be able to take the dog out in the morning before work, at lunch, after work and evening if required. We have a back garden which is fenced and leads onto a quiet avenue. Generally keep dogs on lead until I can build up trust that it will come back on command. Will be cautious around other dogs without avoiding them and allowing social time when we've built up confidence. Love cuddles and playing in the house but won't allow dogs on the bed or the sofa without covers.
“Sophie has now looked at Maggie a couple of times. She went out of her way to come and meet Mags as it was too hot to take her out and I get regular updates through the day. She seems settled very quickly and cloud is a lovely dog as a companion.”
“Daisy seemed very happy for her day at Joyce's, they had a lovely walk in the woods (nice n cool) we will definitely be back, it's a lovely home and Lilly is so playful and friendly 😊”
“Lucca had a lovely day with Michelle, it was the first time we have left her with anyone Michelle sent photos and Lucca looked very relaxed, she had cuddles and walks, and came home very happy.”
About: I have always been around dogs, whether that be my family dogs or friends/colleagues. I do a lot of dog sitting for colleagues when they go away so they are able to stay in the comfort of their own home. My love for dogs is huge and you wouldn’t regret leaving them in my care. I do work full time but from home so am able to ensure someone will always be around to take care of your fur baby. I will be sure to follow any routine & rules you have regarding your pets and my priority will be keeping them safe and comfortable. I will ensure they receive as much exercise as they require by walks and lots of playtime.
“Wesley was fantastic, clearly cares a lot about the dogs he looks after. Took my puppy out early before it got too hot, regular communication throughout the day and she clearly enjoyed herself. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again ☺️”
About: 🐾 My profile: My last furry friend is a miniature schnauzer ( her name is Beyonce) who had lived up to 16 years old . In her old age, I had developed skills to take care of senior dog, including special diets and precise medication schedules. I provide the patience and vigilance senior pets deserve. On the other side, I also enjoyed having dogs at all ages. I take care of dogs for my friends, family and neighbours from time to time and it is always fascinating to have their company:) I’m looking forward to take care of and be friends with your lovely furry friends! Im currently working part time basis and my partner is working from home ,therefore we will be able to take care of your lovely fur friends the whole week! Just text me for any flexible schedule request ! I have a fenced garden for your pets, can also create a crate if your pet needs one. Would be able to take dogs for a walk outside park in the estate / walkable pathway along golf course nearby.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a teen ager. I have house trained several along the way, and have experience with older dogs as well. I am retired after 52 years in financial services. My day is comprised of trips to the gym and the markets as I am the chef of the house. Until recently this included looking after Alice, our beloved Boston Terrier who passed away a few months ago at 15. I enjoy all aspects of dog care, and have had several dogs over the years including a Chow and a Shepard/Husky cross you I’m quite comfortable with any size dog. I live in a large house with a fenced back yard. I’m a short walk from several prime dog walking areas here in Bolton, and I also drive if a chosen location for your dog is required.
“Rupert had a great time and was well looked after. He had his walks, ate his meals and had plenty of play time. I was updated throughout the day with photos and videos. Rupert will definitely be coming back to stay. Thank you!☺️”
About: All-day supervision🏡 (work-from-home care) – constant presence, not drop-in only Kitten care🪀 – playtime, feeding routines, and safety monitoring Cat-proofed, clean home🧹 – preventing access to harmful items or unsafe areas Litter box maintenance🧽 – frequent cleaning to keep cats comfortable and healthy Behavior awareness👀 – noticing stress, appetite changes, or unusual behavior Safe separation of spaces👷 – keeping cats away from kitchens, bathrooms, and doors Enrichment & play🛝 – toys, interactive play, and mental stimulation Routine-focused care⏳ – feeding, play, and rest on a consistent schedule 🏠I specialize in caring for cats and kittens in a calm, clean, and safe home environment. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I’m experienced in maintaining clean litter boxes, keeping cats away from unsafe areas, and ensuring they have proper food, fresh litter, and engaging toys. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort so each cat feels relaxed and secure.🔐 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home five days a week. This allows me to be present throughout the day to feed, supervise, play, and check on cats regularly rather than leaving them alone for long periods.⏳ I structure my day around the cat’s needs, including regular feeding times, litter box cleaning, interactive play sessions, and quiet rest time. Since I’m home most of the time, I can quickly notice any changes in behavior, appetite, or comfort and respond right away👀 I care for pets by creating a calm, clean, and safe environment while following each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure cats have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention throughout the day.🧹 🔐 Because I work from home, I’m able to provide frequent check-ins, supervision, and interactive playtime, as well as quiet companionship for cats who prefer a calmer presence. I keep my home cat-proofed by separating pets from the kitchen, bathroom, and front door to prevent accidents or unsafe access.🌿 🛝 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions for feeding, litter cleaning, play, and any special needs. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort, keeping owners updated so they feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.💓

“Douglas had a briliant time with Eleanor. She was so accomodating - making sure he felt comfortable for his first stay and offering a meet and greet beforehand - above and beyond what I expected! The photos of Douglas were brilliant and he was a very tired pup when he came home - the sign of a great day :)”

About: Hi! I’m Ellie, I’m 19 and currently saving up to travel around Australia. I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, so pet sitting is something I’m really excited to do! (i do cheaper when paying cash) My availability is the following: Monday - Tuesday : All Day/Night Wednesday : [00:00-17:00] [22:00-00:00] Thursday : [00:00-17:00] [22:00-00:00] Friday : [00:00-16:00] Saturday : [00:00-12:00] Sunday : [00:00-12:00] [22:00-00:00] I have my own gorgeous Border Collie called Myron. He’s super intelligent, full of energy, and needs lots of exercise, attention and mental stimulation every day. Because of him, I’m very used to caring for dogs that need more than just a quick walk and dinner, but would also love looking after pets who are low maintenance and need space! I love playing with pets, keeping them entertained, and making sure they’re happy. I also have an adopted cat who is naturally very nervous and anxious. When we first got him, he wouldn’t come anywhere near us, but over the years I’ve built up his trust by being patient and respecting his boundaries. One of his biggest milestones recently was finally choosing to sit on our laps (while still keeping a careful eye on everything going on!). Looking after him has taught me a lot about understanding anxious pets and letting them settle at their own pace. As part of my Animal Care course, I spent a year doing work experience at both an animal rescue centre and an equestrian riding centre. I learned how to carry out basic health checks, keep enclosures clean, feed and care for different animals, and make sure they were comfortable and well looked after.(this includes guinea pigs, bunnies, cats and kittens) I also gained experience looking after horses, including feeding, grooming and general stable duties. I also volunteered with a sea turtle conservation project in Kefalonia, which was an amazing experience. I helped relocate vulnerable nests when needed, carried out morning beach surveys, took part in beach cleans, and used red lights when guiding hatchlings to the sea to avoid disturbing them. It taught me a lot about caring for wildlife while respecting their natural behaviours. I’m a friendly, reliable, respectful and caring person, and I’d love to give your pets the same love, attention and care that I’d want for my own. Whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or just love lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after while you’re away. PS - I am also consistent with cleaning and keeping places tidy. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around my shifts to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. I typically work about 3 days a week. At home, my mum is the primary carer for my own pets, so I’m usually free to look after other pets without any issues. The only exception is if she’s away, as I’d need to stay home with my own animals. However, I’d still be happy to help with shorter visits, such as dog walks or toilet breaks. If your dog is friendly and you’d be happy for them to have some company, I could even bring my dog, Myron, along on walks / to your house so they can enjoy some social time together! Whenever I’m looking after someone’s pet, I always take the time to get to know them first so I can understand their personality, routine, and what makes them happy. Every pet is different, so I like to make sure their care is tailored to their individual needs. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities. My cat, Charlie, is quite anxious, so I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, gentle, and give him the space he needs to feel comfortable. My dog, Myron, is very intelligent and needs lots of mental stimulation as well as exercise, so I’m used to keeping him busy with training, games, and fun walks. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at an owner’s home, I’ll stick to their usual routine as much as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and, of course, plenty of love and attention. My main goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have been raised with dogs since the childhood - and I regularly look after friends dogs, and I’m even ventured into cat sitting as my best friend recently got a cat! I’m reliable - love the outdoors so can take them for nice long walks and happy to care for dogs of any age/size or breed! I work from home 2-3 days a week and tend to spend quiet weekends at home therefore I have plenty of time to be at home with animals, and I would not look after them if I were to be away from home for a long period of time. I only work 15 minutes from home so would always be available if needed, and I spend my days going for long walks when I can I have a fenced and secure garden - and a well maintained and clean home. I do not have any pets currently so there would be no worries as to them having to interact with other animals - just myself and my partner!
About: Over the years I have looked after family and friends pets when they are on holiday or whenever they are busy. After moving to Wigan I am longing for a four legged companion to go for walks and to care for. I have 3 years experience of looking after dogs. I am currently work remotely from home as a video editor freelancer, so I have a ton of time and full attention to look after your pet. I currently live in a 3 bed house, with an fenced garden. We don't have any pets at the moment but would love to get one in the near future. We also have plenty of places to go for walks in our area. I am currently working remotely whilst my partner works part-time remotely so there will always be someone at home watching over your pet. We also love looking after pets during the weekends as we love going on longer walks then. For boarding, we have a fenced garden where doggies can stretch thier legs and go potty. We also ask you about your pets daily routine and stick to it as closely as possible to make it more comfortable for your pets.
About: I have had my own dogs since being 3 years old, I’m a responsible, reliable, caring dog owner. I have done pet visits for friends & family. I have walked dogs for friends and family members. I currently work part-time during term time only. I am available on all day on a Thursday, evenings and weekends during term time. During school holidays I’m available 7 days per week. I can come out to your home to visit your pet, feed and give comfort breaks whilst you’re at work or whilst you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and currently have 3 dogs of my own whom have very different personalities and energy levels. I hold a level 1 degree in animal management and I’ve directly worked on a farm with many different breeds and temperaments (including working dogs and guard dogs). This gave me experience in clear handling, reading body language early and making sure every dog feels understood and safe. All pets in my care get treated like my own consistency, kindness and respect. I can follow routines whatever they may be, and I’m extremely reliable and communicative. I’m comfortable with every breed and personality! I keep updates consistent so you always know how your pet is and what they are doing so your never wondering what’s happening. Looking after other people’s pets fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I already have structured daily routines so adding walks, drop-ins or care for your pets is easy for me to integrate without rushing or cutting corners. I stay consistent, organised and present so your pet gets calm, relaxed care every single time. My dogs get walked twice a day and have plenty of active playtime in the garden in between. I also use enrichment + puzzle games daily to give them mental stimulation, problem solving and calm focus so it’s not just physical exercise it’s balanced brain work to. When they aren’t in play or training they nap and decompress.
About: Dogs have always been part of my family - I have owned and looked after dogs since I was a child. If it's going for walks, playing games with toys, treats or cuddles rest assured your best friend will be well looked after in a relaxed and safe environment. Currently I own 2 French bulldogs myself so I am often taking them for walks in green areas like Pennington Flash or The 3 Sisters. I'm currently working from home but with flexible hours so I can look after for your dog any day of the week. Either in mornings -evenings are fine. Clean, relaxed, safe environment and accommodation catered towards your dog’s needs. Spacious and secure garden/yard area for play Comfortable sleeping area Lots of Snacks/treats Lots of attention & care -play with dog toys or a cuddle on the couch. Daily walks/exercise and socialization with other friendly dogs (if your dog is social!) Regular updates and photos I have a fenced garden area with a locked gate yard to ensure your dog can play freely and safe at my home. I have a dog pen if needed too. I Offer a meet and greet before you decide to book and a free day where I have your pet for a couple of hours or for the day so I can get to know them and their routine.
About: I have looked after a wide range of animals for family and friends for most of my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and find it incredibly rewarding to care for them and ensure they are happy, safe, and well looked after. I have a friendly, well-socialised dog who loves to play and spend time with other dogs. He also enjoys being around cats, although they don't always share his enthusiasm! I I recently resigned from a high-pressure role to focus on improving my work-life balance and overall well-being. I believe there is no better way to do that than by spending time caring for animals, especially dogs. I genuinely enjoy being around them and find working with animals both rewarding and fulfilling. I have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can safely play and relax. I also have a friendly little dog who enjoys the company of other dogs and is well-socialised. In addition, I live close to several recreation parks and woodland areas, providing plenty of opportunities for enjoyable walks, exercise, and outdoor exploration.

Roxy loves her to bits and im happy going to work knowing Roxy will be well cared for. I recommend Ellie 100% for anyone needing walks or any care for their pet. Very happy”
About: Since a very young girl I begged my dad for a dog. After many years, he finally caved and we got our first family dog. Billy was our whole world for 10 years and was considered the third child of the family. I took him on hikes, swimming, and of course he cuddled with me every night. My love for dogs is something that can’t be contained, and sadly for my boyfriend we have to stop at every single dog that walks past. I have over 10 years of experience with a dog, including many other people’s dogs; walling them, taking care of them whilst they are on holiday, and treating them like my bestfriend (they all are). I’m excited to hang out with some new friends and take them on my daily walks and adventures. I’m currently self employed which allows me time most days of the week to walk your dogs & spend a fun day with them! I have a car to drive to take us on outings and adventures when it fits. I have a moderately big back garden for your dog to play in, all fenced and gated. I live right infront of the fields with lovely walks all around.

“Sarah was brilliant with my dog who is quite anxious and fussy! My dog had the best adventures and so much attention that I don’t think he missed us. I loved seeing the pictures of what they were getting up to and we were able to relax knowing he was well cared for. Thank you so much Sarah”
“I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with Bettyna and her family again. They took such good care of her and she settled in really well. So much so she didn't want to come home! Thank you so much for looking after Sky!”
“We had never left our dog Thalia with a dog sitter before that we didn't know so we were very hesitant and nervous. However, Kwan and her family put us at ease immediately when we met them for an introduction. We were sent regular photos and video updates over the week and all questions were answered. We needn't have worried. Kwan took very good care of Thalia and we could see on the videos that she was happy and settled. We highly recommend leaving you dog with Kwan as she will take very good care of your treasured pet. We would definitely leave Thalia again without any worries at all. Thank you and see you again.”
“Claudia can to my rescue when I was let down at the last minute and I honestly couldn’t thank her enough !! She was very lovely and professional.Claudia took fabulous care of my English bulldog I can not thank Claudia enough. Claudia gave me daily updates and photos too. I’ll be booking Pablo with Claudia in the future she’s amazing taking extremely good care off your dog. My Pablo takes medication daily and Claudia was happy doing this. Again thank you so much ?”
“Thank you Olivia! I was happy to receive so many pictures and updates during Yubyubs boarding days. As said, for me it was really good to see that she was laying down belly up in her bed. I could tell by her face that she was happy and taken care of.”
“Our Frenchie has had as good a time as us on holiday Great communication with Wes, did prior dog walks and stay over to ensure our Frenchie fitted in with Wes’s lovely pair of Frenchies. Wes kept us updated with pictures and allowed us to relax whilst on holiday. Would highly recommend Wes as a dog boarder and will definitely be using Wes again. 🐶”
“Michael was brilliant, and the best care I've had for my dog yet! He and his family truly love dogs and that is reflected in the care they provided. Communication before and during the stay was brilliant and I could tell on pick up how comfortable my dog was with them. I would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Hollie took excellent care of our border collie whilst we were on holiday. She was also kind enough to pick up and drop off, which helped us massively. Hollie sent us photos of Misty during her stay and it was obvious she was very comfortable in Hollie’s company. Hollie has a lovely, spacious home and an enclosed garden that Misty enjoyed exploring. Hollie’s communication was excellent throughout. I would definitely recommend Hollie for your dog-minding or walking needs.”
“Highly recommended, such a nice couple who gave my German Shepherd all the love she needs and more. Great with communication and quick replies, I felt very relaxed knowing she was being so well looked after. Thanks Becky”
“Absolutely fantastic! The girls were friendly and welcoming and offered a short meet and greet before our dog stayed overnight with them where they made a fuss of our pup so she would feel comfortable. Eleanor was in regular contact throughout my dog’s stay with her, sending photos and short videos to put our minds at ease. Our dog was clearly happy and well cared for throughout her stay. I will absolutely book again for our next trip away. I highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we have been away from 4 year old Gracie, however after the meet and greet we were 110% she would be cared for, spoilt and loved. And so Annabelle gave us regular updates on settling in, and what Gracie had been up to. Although she was super pleased to see us when we picked her up, when Annabelle phoned about Gracie's feeding bowl as we were leaving and came out to us in the car, Gracie's little tail was going like a propeller 🥰. What more could you ask for, other than for Gracie to write the review herself. Anabelle, Thank you so much for loving Gracie as much as we do xxx She obviously had a fabulous time xxx”
About: My mum has always had an irrational fear of dogs so have never had the honour to own one myself until I moved away from home. Growing up I have often dog sat for my godparents who have 2 beautiful miniature schnauzers and my neighbours Jack Russell. Since I was 19, I was using borrow my doggy to get experience with different dog breeds and learn the needs of each pup. I work full time primarily working from home with the odd day on site. I love spending time outdoors especially now with my cocker spaniel pup! I have a 3 bed house with a wrap around fenced garden for your pup to roam around in. I don’t allow any pets upstairs so should your pup stay overnight, they need to be okay sleeping downstairs. As I have a dog of my own, I do not take on non-neutered male dogs and they must get along well with other dogs.
“Nicole was great and communicated with me throughout Kaiser's stay. Kaiser looked really happy and didn't want to leave her house 😄 it was really hot weather and she really looked after Kaiser, getting him comfortable with a fan. Thanks so much Nicole! X”
“Claire was absolutely brilliant with our dog Pancake. With lots of updates and photographs of what he had been up to. She is Really nice and makes you feel very comfortable leaving him. I would highly recommend her. We actually think Pancake has the holiday blues leaving her. Thank you”
“Cosmo had such a great day with Emily! I was kept up-to-date with photos etc and it was clear Cosmo was having a blast - he was absolutely wiped out after, and I got a bit of peace in the evening! He was having too much fun during the day :) 10/10 would 100% recommend Emily and will definitely send Cosmo again.”
“Antony was responsive, reliable and easy to communicate with throughout. He was very accommodating to our schedule and my girls needs, which made the whole (first ever) experience of leaving my girl, stress free. I felt confident my dog was in great hands and would happily, and highly, recommend him. Our girl is rarely excluded from family adventures; this occasion was an unforseen need, however, should the need ever present itself again, I would not hesitate to reach out to Anthony in confidence my girl would be in very safe hands.”
