“Laura and her family looked after our Poochon Sonny for 2 nights. Laura was very welcoming on initial communication and when we dropped Sonny, their home seemed very homely and I felt totally comfortable Sonny would be loved and cared for. We got pic updates throughout- will definitely use again - Thankyou x”
“This is our fourth time with Fabiola. Our dog scooby absolutely loves it at her place. She also provides regular updates with photos and videos. We will recommend for others as well.”
“What an amazing dog mad young couple! Their house is completely set up for the job and Cody had a blast! I had no worries about Cody whilst he was there and was sent regular updates of him from galloping through woods to having a snuggle on the couch! I was impressed with the questions Daniel asked to make sure he knew as much about Cody and his routine, likes and dislikes. 100% recommend although I don’t want to recommend too much so they will have space for Cody again! Lol. Thanks again Daniel!”
“So happy with the care that my dog received with Lesley. Can’t thank her enough for accepting my booking at such short notice and taking such good care of my dog. Would recommend without a second thought. Thank you.”
“Laura and Matt took such great care of Zola during the 2 days she stayed with them. A few days before the boarding, we scheduled a meet and greet so they could get to know Zola’s daily routine and habits, and so Zola could become familiar with her surroundings. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura and Matt again. You can tell they genuinely love working with dogs and treat them with so much love, care, and attention. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girl 😊”
About: I am retired and looking to share my many years of dog ownership after losing my best friend recently. Missing the walks and the hugs and those special times that only dogs can give. Nice big home set in a countryside location and no other pets/children or other distractions. Experience with border collies, senior care and nervous dogs. I have recently retired and am able to accommodate my time to the care of dogs. If I have committed to looking after your dog(s) they will receive full care and attention throughout their stay. I live in a large house with a paddock for excercise at home and access to many country walks. I have a car and am familiar with transporting dogs if allowed for days out at the beach etc. Your dog would reside in the home with me and my husband, Chris. I am also experienced with walking dogs on a long lead so they can exercise whilst remaining secure.
“Harry was excellent! -helped me out last minute -communication was easy and responses were quick -felt safe and comfortable dropping my dog off and ossy was in good health and good spirits when I collected him. Would recommend highly and would book again! Thank you Harry!!”

Your dog will be treated as my own, with love, protection and care and will never be left alone. My house is clean , cosy and secure and Cleo would love a little companion in the day. Experienced owning small dog breeds and happy to look after your lively pup or older souls 🐶💜 I only board 1 dog at a time so they will have plenty of my care and attention during their stay with me 🐾 I work from home and have split days so I am available for a few hours every day to take your dog out with us on lovely walks and play dates. I like to take my own dog to open places away from cars and busy roads so she can enjoy a run but happy to also do lead walks if that is better suited to your pup. I am also available on weekends. I have a secured fenced and walled garden for your dog to enjoy ☺️ Your dog is free to sit and snooze on my sofa as they please or to have their own space if preferred.
“Lovely home with a garden for your dog. Perfect , asked lots of questions about our dog and her routine. Sent pictures of her settled in the house. Good communication between us . Even when it was just for one night. Will use again for a longer period of time .”
“Scarlett and her partner looked after our two dogs, Teddy and Benji, while we were away on holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with the care they provided. Before our trip, we arranged a meet and greet, and Teddy and Benji felt comfortable in their home and with both of them straight away. From that moment, I knew they would be in good hands and had no worries or concerns about leaving them. Throughout our holiday, Scarlett kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which was so reassuring and lovely to receive. It was clear that Teddy and Benji were having a fantastic time and were being well cared for. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you and would happily book again in the future!”
“Matthew was absolutely fabulous with Bear! Very understanding of his needs & sent me lots of updates to keep my mind at rest! Highly recommend. Bear had a brilliant time. Thanks so much!”

About: For the last 5 years, my partner and I have been crazy about dogs. We’re usually the first point of call to look after the dogs in our family and friendship groups! We cannot wait to have a dog of our own but with a wedding to pay for (hence the side hustle!) we do not have the time or money for full time just yet. We have experience in looking after dogs of all ages. From minding a puppy for the evening to extended stays with a senior dog of 14 (!) years. We have a very spacious home with a large fenced garden. Your furry friend will be looked after like it was our own. Lots of walks, cuddles (but not on the sofa :D) and a few treats here and there. Living on the doorstep of Cureden Valley park gives us great access to amazing dog walks, no matter the weather! I work from home 3 days a week, but this can be flexible for longer bookings. Long weekends can work best with Friday - Tuesday the best time to book. Please get in touch if you are interested! We will have more scope to look after any dogs during the School holidays as my partner is a teacher but please get in touch about specific dates! I work from home 3 days a week. Typically these days are Monday, Tuesday & Friday. We are more than happy to look after your little, or large, friend for an extended weekend and for longer bookings this can be flexible. The day would start with a long walk either around Cureden park or other surrounding paths and fields for around 30 minutes- 1 hour. With regular toilet breaks throughout the day, we will always ensure our dog is comfortable and is staying in their home away from home. Once my partner comes home from work, we would typically then walk together for around 1 hour in the late afternoon. Again, this is whatever the weather! We are equipped with boots and waterproofs so this doesn’t bother us. At the weekend, your dog will be our main priority and a big long walk (if they are able!) will be the main event of the day. We have a very spacious home with a large fenced garden. This gives your pet the chance to explore throughout the day! We usually look after our family’s dogs, a cockapoo and a Labrador and they have lots of space to run around) We have looked after them at the same time before so would have no issue in looking after 2 dogs (3 would be a struggle!) We don’t allow dogs on the furniture but they are allowed upstairs if they want to explore. We are also happy for them to be in any room. In the evening, after a nice long walk, we love nothing more than settling down to watch some tv, maybe with a fire on, and some snuggles on the floor with your furry friend. During the night, your dog would be left in the kitchen, with any tempting food safely out of harms way!). All doors would be closed but we don’t mind if they wander upstairs and want to lie on the carpet (we find our dogs generally do). If you would prefer your dog to be kept in its crate this is absolutely fine and we will go with whatever routine has worked best for you. This is your dogs home away from home, so making them & yourself comfortable will be our number 1 priority!
“Sue looked after Rosie for three nights, she made her feel like she was part of the family and sent us regular updates. I can see how happy she was to stay with Sue and will definitely be using her again x”

Laura and Matt took such great care of Zola during the 2 days she stayed with them. A few days before the boarding, we scheduled a meet and greet so they could get to know Zola’s daily routine and habits, and so Zola could become familiar with her surroundings. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura and Matt again. You can tell they genuinely love working with dogs and treat them with so much love, care, and attention. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girl 😊
Absolutely 5* Mark and Natalie went above and beyond with care for our fur baby Hamish. They got him to eat his dinner in one go instead of just grazing on it throughout the day with just adding a few extra healthy treats mixed in.. our Hamish is such a softie in nature and loves his cuddles this is why we didn’t want to use kennels, and Natalie made Hamish feel like her home was his home We were updated daily with pics and videos of Hamish on his walks with other fur babies 💗 thank you so so much, both of you. We will definitely use yous again. xxx
Scarlett and her partner have been absolutely amazing at looking after our little furbaby, Honey. Honey has stayed with them on two separate occasions and both times they have been super. We received regular updates and lots of photos of Honey whilst we were away which was reassuring and we could tell Honey was loving her time there. We will definitely book again with Scarlett and her partner and will recommend to friends and family. Thanks so much x
Theo had the best time with Jess and family. Plenty of walks and fun times swimming and playing in the garden. Jess sent lots of updates throughout the weekend which really put our mind at ease. This the first time Theo has stayed away and he’s clearly had a great time - as an energetic Springer Spaniel, he’s coming home with plenty of miles under his collar 😉. We’ll definitely be booking with Jess again. 100% would recommend to anyone.
Snow had the most amazing time! He will definitely be returning, Georgina was so wonderful with him, and kept me up to date on him throughout the day :) He had such a wonderful time making friends and went to different parks in order to feed his puddle addiction, he should now be fab for a few days ahah Can’t thank Georgina and her family enough!
This was my first time leaving Rocco and I was very nervous about leaving him with someone I didn’t know, but Racheal gave me so much confidence with looking after him… she was absolutely amazing! I was sent regularly photos and videos of him while I was away which I found very comforting. When collecting Rocco he was extremely excited to see us but once settled he went straight over to Rachel and gave her plenty of cuddles and kisses which I think says everything…. He loves her 🥰. Will definitely be using you again in the future… thanks for everything.
Lisa was INCREDIBLE! She took care of Oscar and Theo our two toy cavapoos so well! I don’t think they wanted to come home. They had lots of walks and cuddles which is what they LOVE. Also all the ‘pup-dates’ were amazing!! Really appreciate Lisa looking after our two babies and we will be booking her again!🩷 thank you so much Lisa.
Thank you so much Jess & Elly. Everything was last minute as we were let down by a family member. First time with a border but carnt praise them enough. Ivy has had a great stay with the girls that made her part of their family 🥰. We were updated daily and sent photos and videos of her activities. This enabled us to Totally relax on holiday that her needs were being catered for. Would definitely recommend to anyone requiring Pet Boarding.
