Top-rated Northumberland doggy day care sitters

“Our Greyhound had a wonderful week spending the day with Cat whilst we were out exploring. Normally he's a bit anxious on a holiday but he settled very quickly, was eating and excited to be dropped off in the mornings. Cat was quick to respond to messages and able to be flexible around drop off and pick up time. We would 100% book him in with Cat again, and have no hesitation recommending them.”


“Stellar and adaptable dog day care when our holiday plans somewhat changed and transport was limited. Yuen’s and her family’s support for our plans and loving care for our special dog at short-notice were above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. We definitely recommend Yuen to anyone needing dog day care, and will seek her services on our future visits to the area.”

“Evangelia had fantastic communication, replying very swiftly to agree to my short-notice request for doggy day care. She looked after our young cockapoo really well and clearly enjoyed having him. I would gladly ask her to help us out again and, judging by his wags, I'm sure Harvey would too! ?”


“Remi always has a lovely time with Sophie! We know that he's in good hands and that he is guaranteed to have so much fun, especially with Eddie🐶🐾”

“We left our little Ernie with the lovely debs and her wonderful husband 2 days in a row! He had the BEST time and they both made me feel so at ease when leaving him that I knew he would be in good hands! They both treated my dog like family and I will be happy to let him go back anytime!”


“We left Moses with Kim for the first time yesterday for the day. An excellent experience from our point of view. Kim clearly loves dogs. We had a meet and greet a few days earlier, and Moses was keen to come back as soon as he got to the front door, which is a good sign. He was very relaxed staying with Kim. Thanks Kim we'll be back! 😄”


“Leo had a great time staying with Yamini. She was great at communicating with us, took the time for a meet and greet and sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Would definitely recommend”

About: I have been around animals/pets all my life and regularly look after family and friends dogs.I live close to a big field for runs and walks, your pet will be well looked after with me, the last dog I looked after did not want to leave me! I also have experience with dogs with challenging behaviour or whether they don't like other dogs etc and need to kept on the lead or need walks in quieter places with no dogs around. I also have experience with senior dogs who were blind. Hope to hear from you soon. I work term time in a school which means I have all the holidays off. In that time your pet will have all my attention. Can do weekends also. I have a large back yard which is fenced aswell as the front. I live very close to a large field. I can cater to any needs of your pet, they can sleep in their bed/crate but I am more than happy to let them in my bed, sofa etc, your pet can make themselves at home with me, like a home away from home. I don't have any pets myself and have no young children my kids are teenagers.

About: We understand that you want to feel confident that your dog is happy and looked after when you go away, and that's what we aim to provide. We have a wealth of experience in caring for dogs, and have a Jack Russell of our own who is friendly and always happy to have a play mate. Dogs in our home are treated like family and can be sure to get lots of attention and cuddles, and you can rest easy that we will get to know your dog and listen to what you tell us about them- after all, you know your dog best! A work from home job means that your dog won't need to be left on their own, and they can expect long walks as long as they are up to it. We encourage you to keep in touch and will send regular pupdates if you would like them. Tasmin works from home most of the week and James works part time with early finish times, so we are available for dog care most days of the week. We are able to provide daytime, evening, night and weekend dog-sitting. Dogs visiting will be treated like they are our own. We can accommodate dogs with various routines and will listen to what you tell us. We know that knowing your dog and their likes/dislikes is important for keeping them happy.

About: Your dog will get 1-on-1 VIP treatment with me – no other dogs, just pure attention and cuddles! 🐾 I’ve looked after dogs since I was 6. I volunteer at The Dog and Cat Shelter and cared for my gorgeous border terrier Toby who lived until he was 17 years old. I work from home with flexible hours so I’m available at any time of the day. I’m free weekends, school holidays and bank holidays/Christmas time. Your dog/dogs will get 1-1 committed care with no other pets in my home or other dogs boarding with me. Although we live in a flat we have green areas right outside to take your dog out for the toilet. We also have beautiful walks nearby and I drive so can also take them to their favourite spot. With working from homeI’m in the flat 24/7 so your dog won’t be left at all and we have very little clutter for your dog won’t be able to chew on or eat anything! When caring for pets, we prioritise their safety by ensuring the environment is secure and pet-proofed. I will always offer to meet you and your dog/dogs in advance to get to know you both. I’ll follow your instructions closely, creating a routine that makes them feel comfortable and at ease. Building trust through regular communication with yourself and ensuring they feel loved and cared for is essential to me.

“Ellie was brilliant. It was like leaving my dogs with a friend or family member. Finding Ellie meant we could visit Alnick Gardens. Her dog Rodney was lovely too and I think my dogs have just had the best day!! Would highly recommend Ellie.”


“Lucy was amazing - punctual, fun, and you could tell that Winnie had an amazing time with lots of play and care. A very happy puppy and two very happy owners.”


About: I have owned two dogs, one who now lives with my mam, and the other who I part share with my dad. I am dog obsessed with lots of love, cuddles and time to give. I view my house as porters house (my dog, a gorgeous miniature labrodoodle) and I just live in it. I work from home so I am always in. Due to this I've found myself pet sitting for friends and family for the last 2 years and I love it! I walk porter twice a day, one in the morning and one in the evening for an hour each time, and every weekend I try to take him on different walks to spice things up a bit. I am fortunate living in Morpeth as there are a lot of fantastic walks near by, from rolling coastlines to woodlands, all can be tailored to longer or shorter walks depending on your dog's needs. I have Porter Monday - Thursday, but often this might carry on over the weekend. He goes to his own day care on Thursdays (more so for the social aspect of it). He is very friendly, 4 years old and neutered. He is very used to sharing his home, and is not jealous or territorial. He shares his toys, bed, food very easily and loves a play, but is also happy snuggling up on the sofa. I would love to own more dogs, so I feel like dog sitting is a perfect in between! I love to take photos of all the fur babies, so I will provide daily updates on how yours is getting on. I live with my fiance James, who dare I say is more obsessed with dogs than me, however I will be the primary care taker of the dogs. We would love to open our door and welcome your four legged fur baby into our homes, where it will received a lot of love, attention, play time and walks. I work from home and very rarely have to travel or be out for work. At most I may be out the house for two hours at a time to attend a meeting, but this happens maybe once every 3 weeks, so I really am in a lot of the time. I have my own dog who I part share with my parents, so I already do a morning and evening walk during the week. Our home is full of love, cuddles, dog toys and treats for yours to enjoy. Dogs will have free rein of the house, we allow pets on every bit of furniture, upstairs and downstairs. Its their house I just live in it. I am available all week for dog sitting, check ins and walks if needed. I can provide boarding week day or weekends if available. I have a fenced garden where your dogs can enjoy our garden. Most of the time I have porter here, a miniature labrodoodle (although he is not that miniature). He is very friendly and very happy to share. He loves a chase and a play so your pups will be very entertained. However, if a dog is tried or just not interested he understands and is very happy to leave them alone. I have experience walking a reactive dog on a lead so comfortable doing this. I am happy to help with potty training and crate training.
