“Our Working Cocker Spaniel, Toffie, had a superb 3 day stay with Michelle recently. He was in good company with Michelle’s own energetic and very friendly Springer and Cocker Spaniels, he was accepted by them immediately. It was lovely to get ‘pup’ photo updates throughout our short holiday away and see him having the best time. A generous garden for the dogs to play and exercise in, together with long walks in local parks and woods was perfect for him. Michelle’s energy and understanding of dogs and especially Spaniels was perfect for us, knowing Toffie would be part of the family. On collection after his stay we were met by a very happy dog indeed. We would recommend Michelle to everyone needing a well catered for and loving environment for their dog for stays away from home. We will definitely be back in contact with Michelle for Toffie’s next stay when we are unable to have him with us.”


“Pui Yan looked after my 11month puppy George for a night and a day whilst I had to go out of town for work. Pui Yan understood all of George’s needs with great communication before drop off. I received frequent updates, videos and photos of him enjoying himself with Pui Yan and her dog. She even gave him a groom and some training, plenty of walk and cuddles before bed. George had a great time. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a home from home service that treats your dog like number 1! Definitely will use her again!”


“John &Teresa, Bailey had a great stay, John and Teresa are very kind and caring looking after Bailey was like being at home. He loved them so much walking and playing with him I would definitely recommend them 5 stars and will book in with them again. Thank you so much for looking after my Bailey Take care Ann & Bailey”


“We were delighted with the care and attention Gary has shown Molly our Cocker Spaniel you are in very safe hands with Gary and his devotion and care exhibited. We are very thankful and Molly enjoyed a return visit to Gary’s home and garden.”


“Absolute pleasure to have had Beth and ste look after my big gingerpottomus for the day. Brilliant communication and we're so welcoming and gave my dog lots of attention and fuss and sent me lots of pics and updates. Lola has made some new friends and I'm confident she will be just as happy going back to stay in the near future. Thanks Beth and ste for putting my mind at rest and opening up your home to us. Excellent customer service with a real genuine personal interest in lolas wellbeing. 5🌟”


“Deborah helped me out last minute, was anxious about leaving Maisey as this was the first time but Deborah sent me photos straight away which put my mind at ease will definitely be using Deborah again thank you 😊”


“Very friendly and engaging. The initial meet went very well and I felt very at ease seeing how the family were with Bigi. When dropping Bigi off he was immediately welcomed and settled quickly when I left, seen during many updates, photos and videos which really put me at ease. He had a great stay and when I collected him it was clear he'd have a good. Thank you and I'll happily be using again.”


“This was my first time of using the site and finding a dog sitter for my Dog Lola. From the firsr moment we arrived in the meet and greet we were at ease.. easy communication and conversation (both face to face and via messages) tidy and clean home, clearly dog lovers! And they (and my dog) instantly bonded The question is... would I book again or recommend... without question YES!!!! these guys are professional, understanding and yes would defo book again...”


“Hannah is an amazing dog sitter who always prioritises the dog's wellbeing. Homie adores staying with her and we know that he's in safe hands. We get regular photo updates from her and she lets us know how he's been throughout the stay.”


“Once again my little guy was well walked, played with and very looked after. The communication and photo updates were a very welcoming gesture showing how much fun he was having. I would highly recommend this family to look after any dog if you want the best care and love giving to them. I would again in a heartbeat.”


“Barbara and Pickles looked after Raven so we'll, she had a great time. She relaxed straight away and got on so well with Pickles! We will definitely be coming back! Thank you so much 💓”


“Enola had the best time with Celeste and her family, she settled straight in with them. We received regular updates and pictures over the week showing how she was having a lovely time. Great sitters and great comms. Would highly recommend and will definitely use again 🐶”


“Rhonda always enjoys her stays with Lemnwie and Peanut. A warm welcome on arrival and lots of updates received whilst we're away. A great service. Rhonda is very much looking forward to her next visit!”


“Absolutely fantastic cannot fault this amazing person. Our dog is a handful at times and needs a certain person with a certain set of skills to be able to cope with him. Shanaya was the calmest most welcoming person ever to our little dog. She was calm organised and communication was amazing. We had regular pupdates while we were away. She went out of the way to make his experience amazing. She purchased strawberries and cooked him fresh chicken which we were not expecting but was so happy she did. Our dog Steve doesn’t really like people and does not trust anybody other than ourselves. But he took to her instantly and I think this is due to her calm demeanour and efforts to make a pet feel comfortable . I cannot recommend this lady anymore than I am. If you met Steve you would understand how hard it is to look after him. He has come back happy smelling beautiful relaxed.”


“We couldn't be happier with how Leah looked after Rufus. The photo updates and messages were so reassuring, and it was clear he was getting so much love and attention he looked so happy in all the pictures. We came home to a very excited and well-cared for dog. Thank you again, we will definitely be booking with you in the future.”


About: With years of experience as a dedicated Dad to dogs homing both rescues and bulldogs over the years, I understand that dogs are family. I offer loving care, whether it’s daycare, boarding, walking, or support. Your furry friend will be treated with love, attention, and plenty of spoiling. Because they deserve the best! I work from home. The building is gated and secure with the perfect environment to support a four legged guest during the day... in or out door we can make sure that their time is engaging and fun while youre at work or holiday etc etc I have a fenced yard with lift access for those unable for the stairs... My dog guess may able outside sit in the kennel, or the covered firepit area and or sunglasses inside they may side on the sofa too! This is their home when they visit!!

“Michelle watched our dog, Coco, for about 2 days on short notice. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and Coco looked very cosy and happy snuggled up on the sofa. When we arrived to pick her up, Coco was fast asleep and seemed none too interested in leaving. It's fair to say Coco was pleased with her stay. I would definitely recommend Michelle!!”
