1. Mia H.

“Mia is amazing with my puppy. He is such a handful and has so much energy and he requires someone with a lot of patience which Mia definitely has. From the updates that i receive from Mia when she goes and visits my puppy they seem to enjoy playing with his toys and seems to really enjoy his time with her. I would definitely recommend Mia to anyone who is looking for someone to look after there dog.”


2. Jeffrey P.

“Jeff walks Cassie on a regular basis, he is trustworthy, kind and honest. It makes me feel so much better when I’m at work knowing that Cassie is going to get the walk and company she needs. Her behaviour on the lead has transformed since working him he has taught her not to pull on the lead and she is so much more confident outside now. I definitely recommend booking him and will continue to do so myself. Thank you!”


3. Jodie R.

“Jodie was amazing. This was a last minute booking but nothing was too much trouble for her and we immediately felt confident that we were leaving our fur babies in excellent hands. We were sent pictures whilst we were away which was so lovely as we could see our babies looking healthy and happy. Would definitely recommend Jodie and we will be using her again. Thank Jodie you’re a star ?”


4. Sally K.
“I was nervous about leaving Teddy as he has previously only been left with family but after visiting sally any reservations disappeared! She was brilliant with Teddy and sent lots of pics and updates throughout his stay! When I picked him up he was very happy and settled. He loved roaming in the large enclosed garden and clearly enjoyed his stay. I will certainly be using sallys services again in the future :)”

“Rosie was just fantastic ! She made sure our cat Lucy was well cared for and put our mind at ease immediately. She went above and beyond to help us when we were worried to leave Lucy and provided the best service - thanks Rosie 😃”


7. Georgia P.

“Georgia was excellent with my Randy, she was an absolute life saver as I had someone cancel on me last minute over the Christmas period!!. She did exactly as requested, respectfully and in a timely fashion. Even worked with us during some logistical issues with flexibility. We will definitely book her again. Thanks again Georgia.”


8. Ashlie R.
“I couldn’t think of someone I’d trust more to look after someone’s pet than ash. Not only is she kind, considerate and caring towards not only pets but pretty much anything, she also has a lot of experience looking after animals as well. She already looks after her own rescued dog, Mika, who is her families little staffy and has a lovely relationship with her, but she also meets many other dogs on a daily basis. This is due to her sister being a professional dog walker and bringing them over to the house, so she has a lot of experience meeting dogs in all shapes and sizes, and she loves every minute of it. She’ll always be sending videos over giving them a stroke and showing what they’re getting up to. She also has a great relationship with my own dog, Willow, who is basically in love with her, we genuinely can’t keep them away from each other! They’re always playing or cuddling on the sofa. I really couldn’t recommend someone enough and you’d be lucky to have her.”


9. William O.
About: Having grown up with larger dogs and owned my own I would definitely say that larger dogs are my preference. I have gained an experience in handling medication for animals and administering them as required. I do currently work full time Monday to Friday and play football Saturdays. Pet care would ideally be in the evenings 7 days, or Saturday mornings/evenings and all day Sunday. We have a 3 year old Doberman who is an absolute wreck-it Ralph, but a total sweetheart. She is walked, exercised and trained daily. A wonderful girl


10. Zac Y.
“Zac is a lovely guy and my dogs Darcy and Max love him! He is friendly and reliable, he was especially good with my nervous dog Max and was very patient with him. Would definitely book with Zac again.”


11. Lydia S.

“Our cat is a shy one who doesn't like a lot of people, but immediately warmed to Lydia during a meet and greet! She's clearly managed to make her feel comfortable and happy while we were away, and took some brilliant pictures! Would definitely use Lydia again.”


12. Donna W.
“Donna has looked after Frank for us on many occasions. The best thing about boarding Frank with Donna is that she takes him out on her runs and Frank is a very energetic Golden Retriever, although Frank loves to excersize he also loves it when he can chill out at an evening and not have to do anything, after reading about Donna it seemed like this was his perfect match.”


13. Amanda F.

“First time using Amanda and she was brilliant. Would 100% recommend. 🥰”


14. Victoria O.

“Victoria is great with Humphrey and really accommodating. I get lots of pictures and videos of the chaos Humphrey is causing ??and will definitely be using Victoria on a regular basis! Humphrey has made a new pal in Fatty too ♥️”


15. Rebecca H.
About: Hi, I'm Becca. I am 26 years old and live in Manchester. I have had and looked after animals all my life including dogs, cats, rabbits and horses. I have had cats all my life and currently have an 18 year old cat who is the queen of our household! I have also had dogs all of my life, including labradors, border collies, german shepherds and currently have a 3 year old doberman who I bought as soon as I had a place of my own! I regularly care for my friends and families dogs which include, spaniels, vizlas and labradors. I love looking after animals and care for them as I would my own as I know it is so important for them to feel safe and cared for when they are away from their own family. I have regularly dealt with reactive dogs and am currently attending a dog reactivity course which ends in November to understand how to help dogs become more relaxed on walks and when they come across triggers. My own dog used to get so nervous around new dogs but this course, a long with extensive research, has helped me to understand what it means to provide empathetic, patient and loving care to help reassure and comfort dogs. I apply these techniques to every animal I care for now. My services include dog walks, drop in visits, overnight stays and home stays. I am willing to travel within reason, especially for overnight stays and for home stays. I can come and pick up your furry friend and drop them off! I will also provide regular updates and photos of our time together so you can rest assured that your animal is being well cared for. I have also cared for a number of older dogs and cats and those with medical conditions which has given me plenty of experience in administering various medications such as creams, eye drops and wipes, and mastering the disguise of tablets! I live on a quiet road with a fenced garden and lots of walks off-road which can be done from the house. So tell me about your pets, what are their likes and dislikes and what can I do to help them feel at ease. If your dog is reactive then please let me know the details so that I can ensure they enjoy their time with me as much as possible and so that I can do what I can to reassure them. Let me know if your animal has any medical issues or dietry requirements. If you have any questions please ask! I currently work shifts and my partner works primarily from home. My dog is never left alone for more than four hours. Both my partner and I are huge animal lovers who have owned dogs for years and give them the care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced garden and a friendly dog to keep your pet company. I can easily crate your dog too if required. There are lots of off-road walks which can be done from the house and don't require to be driven too.
