Alice was really good with Remi. We would be more than happy to leave our pup with Alice again, as we know she will be looked after well. Alice gave us regular updates, which was a bonus.

Naomi did a brilliant job taking care of Jasper while we were away. Great communication and regular doggy updates and pictures made us feel confident leaving both Jasper and our home in her hands. We've arrived home to a spotless house and a very happy dog and would absolutely book Naomi again!

Jade has been fantastic with our miniature dachshund, Bentley, from the beginning. Taking time to join us for a meet and greet ahead of the in-house sitting, communication has been easy and constant. Bentley took to Jade immediately and happily accepted her as part of his tribe! The updates we received throughout were very welcomed and helped to allow us to relax and enjoy our night out, knowing Bentley was in safe hands. Bentley has a new friend now, and we will certainly be calling on Jade again in the near future!

Saskia looked after our 2 Ragdolls for 3 days and 4 nights and did such a fantastic job! I was impressed from the offset when she arranged to meet them first, asked all the right questions and was clearly a cat lover. She looked after my flat as if it were her own and we not only came back to 2 very happy cats, but the flat was spotless too. She sent daily updates and was always contactable. Couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter, felt very comfortable to leave Ralph & Ru in her hands. Will definitely be booking again!

I wholeheartedly recommend Hugo as a dog sitter/walker. He is incredibly responsible, caring, and attentive - exactly the kind of person you want looking after your pet. I've seen firsthand how naturally he connects with dogs. He has trained many of his own, and even my dog, treating them with love, patience and respect. Whether it’s taking long walks, managing feeding schedules, or just spending quality time, Hugo is genuine and trustworthy. He is extremely reliable - always punctual, communicative, and quick to respond to any needs or concerns.

Florina is amazing! She came to housesit our kitten for the week and we couldn't have hoped for better, we're really grateful to have found someone for if we ever need to go away again. Florina kept in contact with us the whole time, sending gorgeous messages, videos and pictures. We could see they had made friends straight away and that Suki was really happy with her, which immediately put our minds at ease. Florina took excellent care of the house too, doing extras like cleaning and watering plants. Florina is a lovely, friendly person who has a great sense of humour, she's also very caring and responsible so I would recommend to her anyone!

I can't praise Angela highly enough - outstanding! As soon as she arrived I felt totally relaxed about leaving my animals, knowing she would look after them. Angela sent me regular updates and photo's, mostly of my dog Cosmo and included video's of him on walks. She even forgave Bertie the cat for a swipe at her foot - his trademark! No qualms about giving Cosmo his meds and even considered sleeping on the sofa if he was unsettled in the night - star! I hope she is free next time I go away :)

Rhea is absolutely amazing with my dog, Bean. Bean suffers with separation anxiety, and she’s not overly great with people, however Rhea has taken it all in her stride and is now best friends with her! Rhea is kind, friendly, trustworthy and she’s one of the very few people outside family I would trust with my dog!

Jake has looked after our doxiepoo Sid on numerous occasions, and has been fantastic. Sid loves long walks and playing fetch, as well as cuddles on the sofa - all of which Jake has been very accommodating to. 3 years later and Sid still gets excited every time he sees Jake and we could not be more grateful for Sid to have a trusting place to go to when needed.

She adores animals and I would highly recommend her to look after your animals. Rest assured they will be in great hands.

Sam has been great looking after my dog on a number of occasions. It is a great comfort to know my dog is in good hands while I am away and avoiding the emotional stress of kennels. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam whether it be adhoc walks or holiday cover
