Working from home full-time allows me to provide near-constant companionship and flexible care.

“Danielle and Ryan are lovely, friendly, enthusiastic and kind people who our dog, Lucy, instantly connected with. Our premeet at their home and local park filled me with confidence they would provide a safe and happy stay. They kindly sent messages and photos through the stay, including adventures out in the Peaks! Lucy clearly had a great time, and I have already rebooked!”


“Ellie and her family have been incredible with our Vinnie, it was his first ever night away from home, so we were incredibly nervous about leaving him especially after such short notice as the person we were going to use cancelled on us. All our fears were soon lifted when we met Ellie, Vinnie went from barking and being anxious to happy and playing with other dogs and hour later. Ellie kept us up to date with plenty of photos, and made us feel at ease. 5 stars because It won't let me put any more.”


“Katie was great whilst taking care of our staffy Walter. Her communication was great through out, and it was a great peace of mind that she worked from home. She had a beautiful house and garden that Walt made himself at home in, and was also prepared with her own dog supplies such as bowls etc. Katie was super down to earth, and was a huge relief when she mentioned Walter sleeping on the bed was a preference haha. Lovely lady, with a knack for keeping our chubby dumpling happy on his holiday! Thanks again Katie, Walter has found a new friend!”


“I can't recommend Leah enough! She was incredibly kind and attentive to my dog, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cares about animals. My dog came home happy and healthy, and I couldn't have asked for more. She sent regular updates and pictures, which really helped ease my anxiety while I was away. Leaving my dog with someone new was tough, but she made the whole experience so much easier. I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. Highly recommend!”
