3. Sophie F.
“As a veterinarian, animal comfort and care is very important to me. Sophie is the most caring person and you can be sure that your pets will be in the best hands with her. She's grown up with dogs so knows exactly what it takes to keep them happy and healthy! She always makes sure that every animal feels at home, and will shower them with love! She's always happy if you have any specific requests for your dogs and I'm always happy to help if they have any more complex medical needs. I couldn't recommend her more.”

“We booked Karolina to look after our Newfie and cat a few times already and Karolina was amazing throughout. She kept us informed about our furry friends with daily updates and pictures. Bridget - the Newfie is in love with Karolina for sure. She seems to have better time with Karolina than we do on our holiday 😂 Bella our cat is all over her ready to cuddle all the time without a fail. Fantastic service and I truly recommend Karolina to look after your pets. I will for sure be booking her again.”


8. Paul C.

9. Zoe B.
“When our usual cat sitter was unable to come, we asked Zoe. She had been recommended by friends for whom she had dog sat & she lived up to their description! She was warm, polite & took a genuine interest in our cat-(VERY important!) he is exceedingly fussy but took to Zoe & thrived whilst we were away. When we returned, he was happy & healthy & the flat was clean, tidy (an added bonus!) We would highly recommend her & definitely have her to stay again.”


10. Amy L.
“Amy is a friend of my daughter who recently looked after my dog whilst away. I can honestly say my dog was so happy whilst I was away, Amy sent me regular updates on what he was up to and it looked like he wasn’t missing me at all which was very reassuring and pout my mind at ease, I will not hesitate to ask Amy to look after my dog again and in fact have already asked her to dog sit again this year.”

16. Maisie B.
About: I have worked in kennels for 8+ years working with a range of temperaments, ages and different needs. I have always owned my own dogs so have plenty of experience around breeds & basic manners. I am often asked to dog sit friends & families fur babies due to my loving & organised personality with a great eye for detail & behavioural changes. I’m currently working odd jobs so I’m able to prioritise your pooches Monday - Saturday throughout most hours of the day & afternoons on Sunday. I have plenty of time on my hands to spend with your fur babies when you are unable to :) I am comfortable around breeds so I am able to dog walk, dog sit in your own home (cannot dog sit at my home because of my two pets). I am happy to crate your dog when necessary if this is something you have within your routine. I am flexible and will help wherever I can. From experience I have gained I am able to tell a happy / unhappy dog, a settled or unsettled dog & have a fine eye for minor details. I have worked closely with veterinary professionals throughout my career, so rest assured your dogs will be in great hands.

19. Joanne M.
About: I have owned dogs for over 20 years. I regularly care for my daughter's Romanian rescue dog and have also cared for friends dogs during their holidays. I have a young labrador, plus an old mixed breed terrier cross, so have experience of both small and large breeds. I am shortly going to undertake the Canine First Aid course and will be registering with the local authority to offer day care and boarding. I currently work from home 2-days per week and fit in regular dog walks Monday-Friday which are a mix of pavement, park, woods and beach. I am rarely out of the house for more than 2-hours so my dogs are not left alone. I have a nice size secure garden with fences all around and a double locked side gate. I have a large dog crate that can be used if needed.
