“Koko and his family were absolutely wonderful! They kept us updated regularly, and it was clear our dog was having the best time. They respected his routine, adapted to his individual needs, and cared for him with so much love and attention. Seeing how happy and relaxed he was gave us complete peace of mind. This was our dog’s very first stay away from us since we rescued him, and it couldn’t have gone better. It was obvious that he enjoyed every single moment with them. We can only recommend Koko and his family!”
“Johnson and his family took good care of our loveable and very excitable dog. He sent lots of photos during her stay and kept in touch when needed. I would definitely recommend him as a great dog sitter.”
“Claude had the best time with Cara! I was regularly updated with pictures and videos on how he was doing. He had an absolute ball with all the other dogs and can tell her was looked after really well despite all his health needs. Would definitely look to book Cara again in the future and recommend her to others”
“Anne Marie took great care of my small dog Buzz. She ensured he is taken care of and provided a safe clean and enjoyable environment. I would highly recommend Anne Marie to anyone looking for a trusted dog boarding service.”
“Fiona was a great sitter for our Harry. She kept us up to date, bathed Harry due to skin issues and he loved his time there. So grateful to Fiona and her family for taking great care of him.”
“Nicola and Tom went way beyond what we expected from a dog sitter. Our Cavalier was given the five star treatment with plenty of exercise and a welcome home. We were provided with daily updates via WhatsApp while we were away to reassure us that our dog was settling in to his temporary home. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Nicola and Tom and would thoroughly recommend them - they were a pleasure to deal with.”
“Gina, looked after our old dog Paddy. When we picked him up he was so settled and had obviously had a fab weekend Gina was so attentive to his needs and it made us so relaxed to leave him We will definetley be using Gina's service again and our old boy loved it.”
“It's a big thing trusting your dogs with someone for the first time, but I warmed to David and Hazel at their " meet and greet". Had no worries about leaving the boys with them. The boys had a fabulous time, and on the day of drop off, they ran into the house like they owned the place! Got regular updates and videos of their " pawlidays" and nothing was too much trouble, even my two with their " foibles". Will definitely book with David again, knowing that they totally loved having them.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Mia received from Kaelan during the two-day stay. She was looked after so well and had the best time! I really appreciated the regular updates with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely be asking Kaelan to look after Mia again in the future and would highly recommend to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. 10/10!”
“Dean was very easy to deal with and happy to fit in with Alfie’s existing routine. Alfie seemed to enjoy his short stay & relaxed into belly rubs and playing and for an anxious dog that was a big win! I would recommend Dean & will use his service again *****”

“Our fur baby Patch stayed with Holly and Thanos for 9 nights. On our first meeting we immediately hit it off with Holly and Thanos who have lots of home boarding experience. We felt relaxed on our holiday knowing Patch was in safe hands and the daily photos and check in were real treat. I would highly recommend this lovely couple and have already booked patch in fir another 5 day stay in March.”
“Janou did an amazing job looking after our dog. Rocco had a great time staying with Janou, who gave us updates on how Rocco was doing and we felt at ease knowing that our dog was well looked after. Would recommend and thank you Janou!”

“We had an amazing experience with our cat sitter over Christmas. She cared for Pudding and Ziggy from Wednesday to Sunday, sending daily updates with photos and videos. She fed them morning and evening, played with them, kept the litter box spotless, watered our plants, and left the flat clean. Highly recommend!”
“Steph took great care of my cat while we were away for a long weekend. We received updates and photos of Mabel while we were away, and got home to a very happy and healthy cat! We would book Steph anytime :)”
“We were absolutely delighted with the care our cats received. Claire is reliable, thorough, and clearly has a lovely way with animals. All the jobs we asked for were done exactly as needed, and it was such a relief knowing the cats were in good hands. The cats took to Claire quickly and were very content when we returned home. Would recommend ”
“Cloe was fantastic with Jinx and kept me updated throughout. She made sure he was well taken care of and cleaned up after him too. I’d definitely book with her again. Thanks again, Cloe!”
“Keli looked after Lily for me while I was away for 10 days over Christmas and New Year. Keli dropped in every day and played with Lily, and made sure she was fed and watered, litter trays were clean, etc. Keli also kept in contact with me daily, sending lots of pics and updates. I would highly recommended Keli and I will definitely use her again.”
“Amazing have no complaints , very patient cat sitter Kept updated with everything and fast response to messages Would definitely book again with Kirsty Thanks for everything”
“Lynsey was an absolute star! She took amazing care of our two cats while we were away for a week. We're so grateful for the flexibility Lynsey showed when our plans changed last minute - she was very understanding. The daily check-in messages we got with lots of photos of the cats were so important to us as we were nervous to leave them alone for the first time. Both cats took so well to Lynsey, even the more nervous/skittish one. It was really clear from the outset how much Lynsey cares about the wellbeing of the cats she looks after. This gave us the confidence to leave ours in her care, and we will absolutely contact her again the next time we need a catsitter!”
“Rachel was such an amazing cat sitter. She not only spent her time cleaning and feeding our cats, but also making sure they were groomed, given treats and playing with them. She also sends lots of photos, videos, long detailed reports of the day with the cats with any notes, observations and overall health of our cats. We were able to enjoy our holiday thoroughly due to Rachel. Highly Recommended!”
“Rachel is just amazing. She is lovely and she is so nice and respectful. She took care of our two cats like they were her own, and she is one of the very few people that took care of our house and left it as they found it, clean and tidy. Our cats loved her. She kept contact every day and she was updating us with pictures. I would definitely book Rachel again and consider her as my first choice when we require someone in the future. Thanks a lot Rachel again, we really appreciate it! 😊xx”
“Charlotte has been absolutely amazing! ❤️ She kept me updated throughout my holiday with regular messages and photos. She took great care of both my cats and fish, and even went above and beyond by helping remove the dreaded sticky willy balls from my cat… who, naturally, likes to live in a bush! 😂🌿 I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after them. I’m so grateful for all her help and would 100% recommend Charlotte. 🥰🐾”

About: Hello! I’m a caring cat lover with experience looking after my own cats, so I understand their needs and routines very well. I am patient, gentle, and reliable, and I always make sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve had cats and looked after other peoples cats most of my life. My current cat is Jippy, I love him to bits and he’s like my second child. Jippy is ten now and I’ve had him since he was a kitten. He loves playing outside and in, he loves cuddles and goes mad for a good brush. Now that I’m semi-retired I look forward to spending more time with animals especially cats. I work locally part-time and volunteer as a football coach but am flexible as far as days and times and look forward to meeting your lovely cat. I will treat your cat like my own making sure it’s well fed, safe and gets plenty of play and cuddles if it likes that. I’m trustworthy and reliable and have a PVG for working with kids that I am happy to share if you want. I live on the southside of Glasgow but am happy to travel.
“Second time having Karris drop in on my cats whilst I am away. They are more familiar with her now and the pictures definitely show they are more than happy. Thank you Karris, definitely using your service again.”
About: I’m a student in the southside of Glasgow with a lifelong love for dogs! I’ve worked at a Doggy Daycare and Boarding Kennels part-time for around a year now so feel at ease around a large number of dogs. I’ve taken care of my neighbours dogs - german shepherd and golden retrievers - for as long as i can remember, walking them almost everyday over summers and whenever i can other times. I’ve also in recent years cared for them whilst my neighbours are on holiday so have plenty of experience with general day to day care of others’ pets. I have my own little dachshund Joey who i adore but doesn’t much like walking unfortunately so looking for another wee walking buddy. I work part time and am free of uni work all summer so dog-walking would just be a fun way of filling this spare time i have! I’m used to caring for dogs in their own home - they’re most comfortable and it suits me best. I do bring the dogs to my own house from time to time just to meet Joey and play outside - i’m lucky to have quite a big back garden which comes in handy!

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Kwai and his lovely family looked after Bonnie so well. She's an older girl and has kidney problems so needs special care but they made sure she was completely comfortable. She had lovely walks on her doggie sitting afternoon. We were also sent regular happy photos to keep us in touch. Kwai's prices are really fair especially as it was a holiday weekend and short notice. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to have Bonnie booked with them again.”
“Both dogs had a lovely time with Koko, Yoyo and the kids. One almost didn’t want to come home and both were sleeping on the drive back home. Kept us up to date with all comings and goings and took great care of them Will definitely be coming back!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone and from the start I felt very relaxed about leaving him, he got a couple of walks which was great and he was a happy dog when I went to collect him , im really happy with everything and wouldnt hesitate to ask again , thank you”
“Michael’s been excellent - start to finish. Great communication, very accommodating to my random work hours etc. My puppy seems really happy on collection and Michael is very receptive to any special requirements around feeding and toilet etc. I’d highly recommend!”
“Cara was fantastic with Lumi our five month old GSD puppy 🐶💛. She had other dogs in the house but still gave everyone full attention and made sure he ate his meals and stayed on track with good behaviour. Her focus on preventing early bad habits is exactly what you want when trusting someone with a young German Shepherd puppy. She sent photos and updates throughout the day which kept us completely at ease and let us see how well he was settling in 📸🐾. She also chatted with us before and after the day which was really helpful. Lumi came home tired happy and clearly well looked after. Highly recommended for anyone needing caring and responsible doggy day care ✨.”
About: Hi, I’m Gillian. I’m a lifelong dog lover and have had dogs as part of my family since I was a young child. As a mum of two children and two much-loved dogs, I understand that every dog deserves to be treated with the same love, patience and care as our own. I work as a property investor, which means I have a flexible schedule and spend much of my time at home. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship and exercise, whether your dog is staying with us, coming for daycare or joining me for a walk. I’ve taken the time to educate myself on positive, reward-based dog training methods and believe that calm, consistent handling helps dogs feel safe and secure. My aim is to provide a happy, relaxed environment where your dog can settle in, have fun and receive lots of love while you’re at work or away on holiday. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I promise to care for your dog as if they were one of my own. I have recently left a 9 to 5 job to focus on property investing and working for myself. This allows me to be at home more often although I do go out but only for a few hours at a time. We take our own dogs for a walk first thing in the morning, around lunchtime and before bedtime. If your dog was boarding with us they would follow the same routine. I can be available for pet visits and dog walking throughout the day either for short, local walks or can take them to the nearest park or open area for a long walk/run to suit. My dogs love the ball thrower so can keep them entertained for as long as needed! I have a fenced garden with lots of space to run around! I have 2 dogs of my own - cocker spaniel and a border collie and they love having friends to play with. For boarding I will take 1 dog at a time or 2 if from the same household. For day care I can take up to 3 dogs at a time. If needed I can keep dogs separate as I have a converted garage in the garden. I can administer medication if needed and provide any specific treats. I’m happy to send pictures and updates to you and can tailor walks and routines to suit your dog’s needs as appropriate.
“Bonnie, our senior beagle girl had a wonderful time with Lauren and her lovely family. On two occasions, one day after the other, at extremely short notice, they welcomed her in and looked after her so well. Their gorgeous lab, Brodie, is so gentle and Bonnie was lucky enough to be with the family when 2 other lovely dogs were visiting. They also have a lovely safe fenced garden. Bonnie also has kidney problems and we knew she’d be looked after especially well. The whole family love dogs and we certainly wouldn’t hesitate to board Bonnie again.”
“Caitlin was amazing with our 2 GSD over Christmas time ! Excellent communication between the visits and photos too !! Never felt so reassured !! Would definitely recommend her to anyone ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
About: I have strong experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages as I grew up with both in my family home. This includes daily walks for dogs for all energy levels, variety of breeds and temperaments, always prioritising safety and positive reinforcement. I am well versed in feeding, bathing and basic grooming thanks to my experience growing up with pets. I also provide attentive care for cats of all ages, including feeding, medicinal care, litter box cleaning and play. Whether it’s belly rubs, walks or mealtime routines, I make sure every pet feels happy, safe and loved - like part of the family! I currently work from home, so I am able to offer both short and long term care with lots of flexibility. I can make sure your pet will get the daily walks or full day companionship they need! Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities, I live in a clean, pet-friendly flat with no other animals, so yours will get my full attention. My flat is fully enclosed and escape proof with plenty of space for relaxing, playing or just napping. I live near a big park which is perfect for dogs to have a long stroll or just a sniff about, I can ensure they are supervised at all times and on leash too if required.
“David and Hazel were absolutely wonderful with our dog Barney — 1 couldn't have asked for kinder, more attentive care. From the moment we met, it was clear how calm, experienced, and genuinely lovely they are. Barney can be a little shy at first, but he took to them straight away, which speaks volumes! David kept me updated - sending videos and photos made sure he was comfortable, and gave him all the attention (and cuddles!) he needed. David took him out for great walks and played with him in the garden. Barney just loved him. It was such a relief knowing he was in safe and caring hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, and I'll definitely be asking for their help again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our boy!”
“Lochie had a great afternoon with Kate and her family. He had so much fun that he is exhausted. Communication was great and Kate welcomed us into her home. She made me feel at ease, showing me her garden and had a bed laid out for him with a toy. Thanks for a great afternoon.”
“We couldn’t have asked for better care for our German Shepherd, Skye! Aleksandra and her husband were an absolute dream team 🐾 From the moment we left, Skye was showered with love, cuddles, and tons of attention 🐶 They stuck to her routine perfectly, noticed every little detail we mentioned, and even had fun doing tricks with her along the way! 🎉✨ Plenty of walks through the day kept her happy and tired (in the best way), and we loved getting frequent updates with sweet photos and messages — it really put our minds at ease. 😊 Their communication was super responsive and so reassuring. At the end of the stay, Aleksandra and her husband took the time to go through everything with us and Skye came home one very happy, tail-wagging girl 🐕💙 Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member - we’re already looking forward to booking with you again! 🙌 See you again very soon! 🐾 Highly recommend! 🌟”
“Caragh and Callum were the best sitters for my rescue greyhound! They're both so lovely and take the best care of Dappy. They're trustworthy and it's clear how much effort and care they put into dogsitting. I have no reservations about re-booking with them and it's clear that they prioritise safety and comfort for my dog.”
“Jiawen looked after my little dog at very short notice. I received multiple photos throughout the time and my dog seemed happy when I collected her. Would definitely recommend Jiawen :)”
“Jessica and her partner were fantastic and so patient with my anxious pup! My dog settled in very well with them, which doesn’t always happen. Jessica kept us updated throughout the day and responded very quickly. Highly recommended!”
“Short notice puppy sitter for our 11 week old husky. Was lovely in person, took our puppy no issues and handled her great, sent lots of updates and pictures/videos and even dealt with an indoor toilet accident without issue. Puppies are a ton of work, especially these active breeds so that was really appreciated. Nice wee photo at the end of our puppy sleeping beside her, so obviously happy and tired out. Gave our puppy some socialisation with her dog also which is what we wanted. Would recommend and use again :)”
“Suzi loves staying with Alice - she has a great time and is very well looked after. Alice is brilliant with her and just loves dogs. Suzi and I couldn’t be happier - great service and peace of mind.”

About: Growing up I was surrounded by all sorts of pets from dogs, cats, hamsters, and Guinea pigs, I’ve always been an animal lover. When I moved to London many years ago, I began looking after friends and neighbours dogs, cats and rabbits as I didn’t get to see my family pets often since I’ve moved away so I enjoyed helping out and looking after other peoples on Rover. I work in the television production industry, and my schedule can be very flexible with enough notice. I work Monday to Fridays, so available weekends and week nights. My office is animal friendly so that is always an option. I am reliable, trustworthy, well- organised, caring and I have a lot of experience on Rover. I have looked after a wide range of dogs and cats and have never had any issues. I always keep in touch with pet owners, and updates and will make sure I know the ins and outs of the care required before the booking begins.

“5 stars aren't enough! Kwai exceeds all expectations. Considerate, knowledgeable, reliable, kind, excellent communicator and most importantly our dog Karla loves going on walks with him and his family! We couldn't have wished for a better match and have complete confidence leaving our pup with them. Thank you so much Kwai!”
“Anna was amazing with Oscar and Molly. The communication was excellent and it was so nice to get the updates and pictures every day while we were away. Honestly I can't recommend Anna enough. Outstanding!”

I’m also happy to provide overnight care, ensuring dogs stick to their normal routine and feel comfortable while their owners are away.

About: 🐶 Your Dog’s Home Away from Home Hi! My name is Koko. 🐾 I have lived with dogs for as long as I can remember. For more than 40 years, caring for dogs has been a natural and important part of my life. From a young age, I was actively involved in raising, caring for and training our dogs. We even trained our dogs for various competitions and were fortunate to achieve numerous awards and medals over the years. My experience began from the very start of a dog's life. I have helped care for pregnant dogs, assisted with newborn puppies, and looked after dogs through every stage of life, from their first days to their senior years. The oldest dog I currently care for is 16 years old. Over the years, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes and personalities, from Chihuahuas and Pomeranians to large breeds such as Mastiffs and Pit Bulls. I also have experience with puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs who are anxious or require extra patience, reassurance and understanding. My experience extends beyond dogs as well. Throughout my life, I have cared for cats, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, amphibians and other small pets. This has taught me that every animal is unique and that the best care comes from understanding each pet's individual personality, routine and needs. Safety is always our highest priority. I have many years of professional experience in disaster management and first aid, including working as an instructor. This has taught me to remain calm, observant and responsible in unexpected situations. My wife also has a clinical medical background and extensive experience in medical genetic testing. While we are not veterinary professionals, our professional backgrounds have given us a strong appreciation for safety, attention to detail and responsible care. We are also committed to continuous learning and improving our knowledge and skills, so that we can continue to provide an even higher standard of care. Looking after dogs genuinely brings me happiness. I love spending time with them, getting to know their unique personalities, and helping them feel relaxed, secure and loved while their owners are away. Our whole family loves animals, and we provide a calm, safe and welcoming home where dogs are treated as part of the family. ❤️🐾 We intentionally limit the number of dogs we care for at any one time so that every dog receives plenty of attention, affection, exercise and supervision. Whether your dog enjoys playing, exploring or simply relaxing, we will adapt to their routine and help them feel completely at home. When your dog stays with us, they won't simply be looked after — they’ll be cared for with the same love, patience and respect we would give our own. 🐾❤️ As a new Rover sitter, we're currently offering introductory rates while we build our reviews on Rover and welcome more wonderful dogs into our home. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🥰🐾 I mostly work from home, which allows me to spend most of my time at home and provide consistent attention and supervision for pets in my care. This flexible schedule means I can easily incorporate walks, feeding times, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I am also generally flexible with check-in and check-out times, helping to accommodate owners’ travel plans while ensuring pets remain comfortable and well cared for. 🐾 Your dog will stay in a safe, calm, and welcoming home environment. We have a secure fenced garden, allowing dogs to enjoy fresh air, supervised outdoor time, and safe play. The home is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, providing a relaxing space where dogs can feel at ease. Animals have always been part of our household, and my whole family loves animals, so every pet is welcomed with kindness and care. I make sure each dog receives attention, affection, and a comfortable place to rest. I also understand that every dog has different habits and routines, so I do my best to maintain their normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, and rest periods. My goal is to help your dog feel secure, relaxed, and at home while you are away. 🐾
“Monica is great! My pup warmed up to her quickly and she's so understanding of her needs when it comes to reactivity or anxiety. I am very glad to have her caring for my dog.”

I also keep their environment clean, comfortable, and safe, and I’m happy to provide regular updates to the owner.

I have hands-on experience with reactive, anxious, and medically sensitive dogs through caring for my own 23kg rescue dog, including managing leash reactivity, arthritis, and dietary needs. This has given me confidence handling strong, excitable dogs and adapting care to each animal’s individual needs. I am calm, reliable, and very attentive to safety and wellbeing, and I have a strong long-term passion for animal care and rehabilitation. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I have a regular commitment every Thursday morning from 9:45am–12:00pm where I walk and care for a neighbour’s dog, so I’m unavailable during this time each week. Outside of that, I’m flexible with bookings depending on the day and notice given. I also live with my mum and we share care of our dog, who has three walks a day. I usually take on one of these walks per day and this is already built into my routine so it doesn’t affect my availability for other pet care bookings. Although I live at home I will be doing this myself and have years of experience walking dogs alone. I also volunteer at a doggy daycare on a weekly basis, which is flexible and arranged around my availability, so I can adjust this when needed. Overall, I’m organised and reliable, and I make sure each pet gets the time and care they need. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I always prioritise safety, routine, and making the pet feel as comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walking, and any specific care needs, and I make sure doors, gates, and leads are always secure. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including reactive or anxious dogs, due to my experience with my own rescue dog and working with dogs in daycare settings. I aim to keep pets calm and happy by sticking to their normal routine as much as possible, giving them attention when they want it and space when they need it. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure the environment is safe, clean, and stress-free while their owner is away.

“Koko and his family were absolutely wonderful! They kept us updated regularly, and it was clear our dog was having the best time. They respected his routine, adapted to his individual needs, and cared for him with so much love and attention. Seeing how happy and relaxed he was gave us complete peace of mind. This was our dog’s very first stay away from us since we rescued him, and it couldn’t have gone better. It was obvious that he enjoyed every single moment with them. We can only recommend Koko and his family!”
“Johnson and his family took good care of our loveable and very excitable dog. He sent lots of photos during her stay and kept in touch when needed. I would definitely recommend him as a great dog sitter.”
“Claude had the best time with Cara! I was regularly updated with pictures and videos on how he was doing. He had an absolute ball with all the other dogs and can tell her was looked after really well despite all his health needs. Would definitely look to book Cara again in the future and recommend her to others”
“Fiona was a great sitter for our Harry. She kept us up to date, bathed Harry due to skin issues and he loved his time there. So grateful to Fiona and her family for taking great care of him.”
“Gina, looked after our old dog Paddy. When we picked him up he was so settled and had obviously had a fab weekend Gina was so attentive to his needs and it made us so relaxed to leave him We will definetley be using Gina's service again and our old boy loved it.”
“It's a big thing trusting your dogs with someone for the first time, but I warmed to David and Hazel at their " meet and greet". Had no worries about leaving the boys with them. The boys had a fabulous time, and on the day of drop off, they ran into the house like they owned the place! Got regular updates and videos of their " pawlidays" and nothing was too much trouble, even my two with their " foibles". Will definitely book with David again, knowing that they totally loved having them.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Mia received from Kaelan during the two-day stay. She was looked after so well and had the best time! I really appreciated the regular updates with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely be asking Kaelan to look after Mia again in the future and would highly recommend to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. 10/10!”
“Allister was absolutely great with my two dogs Fendi and Darla. I received updates and photos, which was really reassuring. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. Would highly recommend !”
“Our fur baby Patch stayed with Holly and Thanos for 9 nights. On our first meeting we immediately hit it off with Holly and Thanos who have lots of home boarding experience. We felt relaxed on our holiday knowing Patch was in safe hands and the daily photos and check in were real treat. I would highly recommend this lovely couple and have already booked patch in fir another 5 day stay in March.”
“Janou did an amazing job looking after our dog. Rocco had a great time staying with Janou, who gave us updates on how Rocco was doing and we felt at ease knowing that our dog was well looked after. Would recommend and thank you Janou!”
“Laura and Luke were absolutely brilliant with Clement. We contacted them relatively last minute as we had a last minute change of plans for the weekend and had to travel to Paisley from near Birmingham with our beloved doggo in tow. The communication was spot on throughout, quick, clear and everything was really easy to arrange. They were so welcoming with Clement and completely unfazed by the fact that, while he’s incredibly friendly, he also comes with a generous helping of fur, slobber and love! They took him out on adventures during the day and he came back very happy, content and clearly very well looked after. In fact, I’m not entirely convinced he missed us at all! We felt completely comfortable leaving him with Laura and Luke and would happily recommend them. Thank you both for taking such lovely care of him! 🐾”
“Kiera and her family took such good care of our dog blue when we were away on a family holiday. It’s so lovely to have a home from home to send your dog to. Highly recommend x”
“Excellent experience with Caragh and Callum. They were friendly, reliable and kept me updated throughout, with great communication and regular updates. They were also very confident and kind with my dog, who is quite a big boy. It was clear he was in very capable hands and being really well looked after. I’d have no hesitation in booking with Caragh again and would happily recommend them to others.”
“Penny adores her time with Jamie and his partner, and I think we will agree that Penny loves Jieun just a little bit more 🤣. Penny is spoiled rotten, walked, massaged and played with on demand. She adores them and I know she’s having a great time. Lots of pictures and updates too”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person than Belen to look after our baby Bramble. This was my first time using Rover so very wary. Belen sent me pics and videos every other day of Bramble on walks and playing at home alongside her own dog. I could see Bramble was very happy and was being cared by how happy and relaxed she looked. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Belén again in the future.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. Most recently my parents have 2 wire fox terriers which I frequently look after. I take them at least 3 long walks a week and I have trained them both since they were puppies! I have experience with anxious/reactive dogs. Neighbours/ friends also often ask me to check in on their dogs to play or go a walk. I currently work Monday- Thursday so would be available for boarding Thursday night- Saturday unless your dogs used to being home alone during the day in which case could do midweek too. I have a fenced garden and no dogs in the house. I’m happy to crate your dog if they are crate trained. I have experience with anxious dogs.
