“Well what can I say. Monty had the best of times . Sue made sure that he had a holiday to. He was so well looked after, we did wonder if he would like to come home. I Would definitely recommend her. And have booked his next holiday.”

“Theo had a wonderful time staying with Aga. He settled straight in, loved the garden and playing fetch! Then enjoyed cuddles on the sofa 🐶 Aga is super friendly, quick to respond and kept me updated throughout with photos. Theo can’t wait to stay again.”

“Baxter stayed with Ruth and her family again after a very successful first stay. He was treated with the utmost care and kindness and he made himself very much at home! We had daily messages and photos to keep our children (and our) minds at ease and it was very clear to see how much he enjoyed his stay! We will most certainly book with Ruth again and would recommend to everyone as a perfect home from home environment!”

“Our dog Sully had a great time again! Sarah was caring, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and messages. Sully came home happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely book again!”

About: I have a 3 year old Border Collie, so caring for a dog is part of my everyday life. I’m used to regular walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure dogs are settled and comfortable. I’ve also looked after dogs for family and friends in my home and theirs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, exercised, and relaxed. I work from home full time, so I’m around all day for walks, toilet breaks, play and general company. Dogs aren’t left alone for long periods and fit easily into my daily routine alongside my own dog🥰 My home is calm and secure and I welcome well behaved, house trained dogs. I have a fully fenced garden where dogs can safely spend time outside. I also have a friendly, very energetic Collie who gets on well with other dogs and enjoys having a play mate🐶 We live next to a nature reserve, so there are plenty of opportunities for good walks during the day!

“Samantha was great. Helped us out at the last minute when we were let down by our regular sitters. It is plainly obvious she is confident around dogs and we were more than happy to leave Codi with her. We got regular updates throughout our holiday and it was so reassuring to see him soo happy. Would thoroughly recommend Samantha !”

“Anna looked after our 11-year-old French Bulldog, Lola, for 10 days while my husband and I were on holiday, and we couldn’t be more grateful. It was Lola’s first time staying in a boarding house, and she is usually quite a nervous dog — but Anna made her feel completely safe and comfortable. When we came to pick her up, Lola was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It gave us such peace of mind to know she was in such kind and capable hands. Thank you, Anna, for treating Lola like your own. We will definitely trust you with her care again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had cats at home, and later I got my own dog, which really deepened my connection with all animals, especially dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve also looked after many stray pets, giving them food, care, and affection, and I truly hope to one day help some of them find their forever homes. Because of this lifelong passion, and as a dog owner myself, I understand just how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for when you’re not around. I have a little Maltese of my own, she can be barky at times but is very friendly and kind, which has taught me patience, consistency, and how to handle dogs with different personalities and quirks. If I look after your pet, I’ll treat them as if they were my own, and make sure they get not only the basics like walks, feeding, and routine care, but also all the little things that matter, playtime, cuddles, attention, and love. I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for. My goal is to give you the same peace of mind I look for when I have to leave my own dog with a sitter, I’m here to reassure you and help you enjoy your time away, knowing your pet is in safe and loving hands. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to looking after your pet. Walking, feeding, and playtime fit naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure every pet gets attention, cuddles, and care throughout the day. Being near a lovely park means there’s plenty of outdoor time too 🥰 I live in house with a large fenced garden and it’s also few minutes walk from hamworthy parc and beach area where I take my dog every day, so plenty of walks and outdoor time is guaranteed. Dogs are welcome on the bed and sofa too, if that’s okay with you!

“Jasmine was amazing, I've never felt so stress free leaving my dog with someone as I did Jasmine. 100% recommend you use her services and I will be doing so again.”

“Chester absolutely loved his time with Jane, he was super excited to be dropped off and we were able to leave knowing his was in safe hands! He loved making some new doggy friends, and would love to visit again :-) Thank you Jane!”

Annabelle W.

“One of the highlights of the service was the regular updates and adorable photos I received throughout the visits. It was evident that Sophie and James genuinely enjoyed spending time with our dogs, and these updates made our days. It's great to have that extra layer of connection and know that everything is going smoothly. Overall, I highly recommend Sophie for anyone in need of reliable and caring pet services. We would certainly be asking them again for future pet care needs. Thank you for taking such excellent care of our furry friends!”

“I got a good vibe from Grace when I left Remi with her for a few days for a holiday. She was interested in his character and preferences and seemed to really care for dogs. Remi came back calm and happy. She sent photos throughout, I think he had a great stay.”

About: I believe every pet has their own personality — I adapt walks, playtime, and routines to match their comfort and energy level. Calm, confident handling: Whether it’s a shy rescue, a high-energy pup, or a senior with limitations, I know how to keep pets feeling safe and understood. Safety first: I’m attentive on walks, trained in pet first-aid basics, and mindful of potential hazards and triggers. Genuine connection: I treat every pet like they’re my own — building trust through patience, consistency, and plenty I currently working part time, and most of my spare time I spend with my little pomeranian, who is the friendliest dog ever, and definitely would benefit from contact with an another charming four-legged friend. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space free of hazards, toxic plants, and unsafe items. Pets have access to cozy rest areas, fresh water, enrichment toys, and safe outdoor time (if requested).
