“Togo had a great time with Abby and her lovely family. My mind was at ease with regular updates, and Abby went out of her way to understand his needs. He was so well cared for, I don’t think he wanted to go home! Thank you Abby, we couldn’t be happier and will be reaching out to you again in the future with no hesitation!”
“Captain has just come home from another lovely stay with Shirley, and he was all waggy tails and happiness when we picked him up. I can’t recommend Shirley highly enough, she is so caring and professional, and I always know Captain will be incredibly well looked after. I love all the photo updates and having someone who takes such special care of him means a lot to us.”
“James looked after our precious Angel, who was very happy on collection (and via photos), which speaks volumes! James is very attentive to every detail of the care plan and has such a love for animals which is extremely clear! Instantly put our mind at ease and made his furry guest most welcome too. Would definitely recommend James! 🐶💗”
“Gaby looked after Winnie for 3 nights and was absolutely wonderful. Winnie was taken for regular walks and really looked after. Gaby very kindly kept us updated with photos of Winnie and was really accommodating. Will definitely use Gaby again”
“We honestly couldn't have wished for better people to look after our precious puppy, Nikko. Leaving your puppy for the first time is incredibly emotional, but from the moment we met Anidora and George, we felt reassured. They completely exceeded every expectation we had. Throughout Nikko's nearly five-day stay, Anidora kept us updated constantly with photos, videos and thoughtful written updates from morning until night. It meant the world to us to see how happy, relaxed and loved he was every single day. They took the time to listen carefully to everything we told them about Nikko beforehand and followed his routine beautifully. They even managed to do something we didn't think was possible – they calmed down our energetic six-month-old Jack Russell puppy! They took him on plenty of walks, helping him adjust his toilet routine while staying away from home, and gave him all the physical and mental stimulation he needed. What truly stood out, though, was the genuine love and affection they showed him. They didn't simply "watch" our dog; they welcomed him into their family. He received endless cuddles, kisses, playtime, training, attention and quality bonding time, just as he does at home. It was so clear from every update that Nikko wasn't just another booking – he was treated like one of their own. Their lovely little one also deserves a special mention. The bond that developed between them and Nikko was absolutely heartwarming. They became the best of friends, playing together, caring for him and making him feel completely at home. When we arrived to collect Nikko, they even planned a beautiful surprise by bringing him to greet us in such a thoughtful way. Watching his excitement when he realised Mum was there genuinely melted my heart. It felt like the kind of magical reunion you see between a parent and child, and it's a memory we'll treasure forever. Most importantly, Nikko came home happy, relaxed, confident and clearly full of love for them. That says more than words ever could. Anidora and George have earned our complete trust, and they've certainly earned Nikko's love too. We won't hesitate to book with them again—they have officially become our go-to sitters, and we cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, caring people who will treat their dog like family. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts. We know Nikko is already looking forward to his next stay!”
About: Our family have always had pets and as a child dogs were a permanent fixture. As an adult we have had small animals, a loving cat and presently a cockapoo. I am willing to care for dogs and cats and particularly like dog walking. I am happy to have well behaved, fully trained, family friendly dogs in my own home. I am a retired nurse and teacher with some time on my hands. I'm available most weekends and at the end of the week. I may have grandchildren at the house so can only board dogs who are good with children. I am happy to play and walk your dog. I have a fenced garden and large house. Well behaved dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. They will need their own food and toys. Our dog Mabel does not live with us all the time as she is my daughter's dog and mostly lives in Wales. She comes to us for holidays.
“I am so pleased we found Emma and her partner to look after Lola. We genuinely couldn’t be happier with how they treated her like their own right from the start. They really go above and beyond regular dog sitting, catering to her every need, which means a lot since she’s a senior dog and can get a bit anxious. The detailed daily updates and gorgeous photos throughout our 10 days away gave us total peace of mind. We honestly can't thank them enough and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier care 🐾🥰”
“Anna and her family are lovely. Very considerate. I got regular updates about Ripley which is really nice as I appreciate knowing that he is happy. Thank you. I will definitely book again”
“We reached out to Paris last minute to look after our two beagle girls for a spontaneous weekend trip away. She was friendly, very communicative, and we knew we were leaving our girls in very safe hands 🐾🐶 Toki and Millie had a lovely time - we received regular pupdates, belly rubs and walks! Paris was also really accommodating when our return flight was delayed. We’d highly recommend Paris to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter. Thank you again”
“Roger and Barbara took great care of Jazz whilst I was away on holiday. What I particularly liked was that they sent me lots of photos and videos of Jazz on his many walks in the local parks and woods. It was very reassuring to know that he was enjoying himself and being well looked after. I would definitely book Roger again in the future.”
“Dominika is absolutely lovely and I immediately felt comfortable leaving my puppy Alfie with her. She has a beautiful set up with lovely garden and was kind sending photos and updates during Alfie’s stay. I will be booking again soon I’m sure! Thank you Dominika 🙏”
“Marina was kind, reliable, and took excellent care of Pippin during his stay. She kept me updated regularly with photos and text messages, which gave me great peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter.”
“Our Border Collie Bess had a lovely time with Katarina and her family and their laid back dog Fred! Communication was excellent and Katarina was kind enough to send regular photo updates while we were away. The big plus is the lovely wooded area immediately behind their back garden so the dogs were able to be walked regularly and safely, away from main roads and traffic etc. Everything worked out very nicely indeed, thank you Katarina.”
“I left my beloved doggo with Tracey and Alex for 10 days/nights and I can’t recommend them highly enough. I got daily updates and pictures so I could relax on my holiday knowing that he was so loved and well taken care of. It was like leaving him with a member of my family, a real home from home and I’m just delighted that I’ve found this wonderful family as I’ll 100 percent be using them again. Absolute 10/10 ❤️🙌💚”
“Roxy was absolutely amazing with our very energetic Retriever/German Shepherd cross! Had her for 5 nights. Fabulous communication. Met us twice before. Literally perfect. Super person. Can’t recommend enough.”
“Sabie came back from her stay with Lyudmila a happy pup. We received many photos and video updates which helped us relax with the knowledge she was being looked after. We will definitely use Lyudmila’s service when the need arises again.”

“Youssef was an amazing cat sitter! He was incredibly attentive, kept me updated throughout the stay, and sent me lots of photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that he took excellent care of my cat. When my cat came home, spoons was happy and relaxed, which says it all. I would definitely book with Youssef again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you for taking excellent care of my cat.”
“We used James’ services again, this time for a couple of drop ins on Hattie (cat) over the weekend. He provides video/photos for each drop in, sent me a written update and I can see from the photos that he does a great job. Everything is clean and Hattie looks thrilled to see him again 😻 thanks again James!”
“Once again, Anna was excellent with our cat while we were away. Communication, including daily updates and photos, was great and massively appreciated. We will definitely book with Anna again”
“Sandra was amazing from start to finish. She’s very professional and delicate, and our Loki loved spending time with her. Sandra sent us daily updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Her attention to detail and genuine care for Loki were evident—we came home to a very happy cat. We will definitely use Sandra again! x”
About: We have experience caring for cats from a young age, including rescue cats. John rescued a stray cat at 14, who became part of the family, so we understand the importance of patience and giving cats time to feel comfortable. We’re used to respecting a cat’s space and personality, whether they are playful, shy, or more independent. We’re confident with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, and making sure cats feel safe and relaxed in their environment. While most of our recent experience has been with dogs, we’re equally attentive and gentle with cats and understand their different needs and behaviours.
“Neetal was brilliant with our Dylan. She was caring, played with him a lot and made him generally happy (he showed her his belly a lot for rubs🙂). Neetal sent us lots of nice pictures and kept us updated twice a day, we really appreciated that. We found Dylan nice and relaxed when we got back and a very tidy litter tray and house! Neetal even took care of some deliveries for us! We truly recommend Neetal to anyone and we'll certainly book her again!”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful; she looked after my cat Luna amazingly. I was very anxious as Luna is an elderly cat with health needs, but Amy did everything I asked and more! Luna also loved her! Amy was very responsive to messages and sent lots of photos and updates, putting me at ease. I can’t recommend her enough ❤️”
About: I have been a cat owner for many years and understand the importance of providing cats with patience, care and attention. I have experience with feeding routines, playtime, companionship and recognising when a cat needs affection or space. I have also cared for my sister’s cat while she has been away, ensuring they were comfortable, happy and well looked after in their own home. I understand that cats can have very individual personalities and routines, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and relaxed.
“Izzy has been great with our little ragdoll girl Khaleesi whom she looked after during a week over Xmas. She is very reliable, communicative and sweet ; she got on well with Khaleesi and sent me pics of her daily. She left the flat spotless and I can only highly recommend her for any pet sitting. ”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 14 years old, my family dog back at home, I have looked after my best friends dog when she was away Recently I left my job so pet care would fit in very well with my routine as I am flexible and available to work more hours. I live in an apartment so for dogs it would be very safe as other animals such as foxes wouldn’t be able to get in. In a pet owners home I would ensure that everything on the instruction list is done. When taking the dog for a walk always making sure that I am cautious about other dogs and animals .
“Cathy looked after our cat while for 10 days and it gave us massive peace of mind knowing that Cathy was coming at regular times and spending time with our cat. On our return our cat was relaxed and happy and like “oh hey I remember you”. I’d very much hope to be able to book her time again.”

I am flexible during the week and on Saturdays to help with your pet care needs. We have a range of parks and open areas around. We have a big fully fenced garden where the dogs have a good time. We have our own miniature Dachsund who is very friendly and loves other dogs
“Julie was amazing with my 2 cats while I was away! I came back to very happy, well fed and cared for cats. She sent me daily updates and pictures to put my mind at ease. The care she provided was great and I will definitely book her to care for my cats again in the future! Thank you Julie :)”

About: Hello I'm Maxine I've had cats as pets for many years and so have a natural love of bring around them. I have been pet sitting for 5 years and enjoy it so much. I always strive for high standards and I have excellent references from owners who have used me to care for their pets.
About: My mother ran a Dog boarding and Dog walking company for 10 years and I was used to having every breed of dog in my house growing up. I also have walked the dogs for my mum and looked after them intensely for years. I currently work full time but I am work from home over the summer and have a lot more flexibility. I also have no commitments so I am fairly flexible on the evenings and weekends. I would ask the owner all questions on the dogs wellbeing in an initial meet. I think its important to know the areas of the house the dog/dogs are used to, what areas I need to be aware of and what triggers the dog to be scared or anxious. Getting to know a dogs personality is super important as well as the type of dog owner. My parents have two dogs a cockapoo and chihuahua but they don't live with me.

“Yara had a lovely time at Gaby’s for a few days of day care. Gaby took great care of Yara, following our special instructions when Yara was poorly. She took some lovely photos to send through and put our minds at ease. Yara pulled me to the door most mornings in eagerness to see her and Frijol. Would absolutely use Gaby for day care again!”
“Emily took great care of our pup. She was friendly, professional and communicative, and her dog Tony is an absolutely sweetheart. She shared updates and pics throughout Marzipan’s stay. Our dog was well cared for during their time together.”
About: I have looked after and helped take care of animals for many years and I absolutely love it. I really enjoy the process of building a connection with an animal and getting to know them. During my travels over the last couple of years I have looked after a whole variety of dogs and cats. I am always very active and so love taking dogs for walks, runs or hikes. While I also love to relax, play and cuddle with them too. I would say I particularly connect with bigger more active dogs but the smaller ones also have a place in my heart. I brought up a Labrador puppy and have gained more experience with training all sorts of dogs, finding it easy to have the patience required to train them. I have built my best connections with cats over the last five years, also looking after stray cats along my travels whenever possible. I find connecting with them and really understanding a particular cats personality comes naturally to me. I’m always more at peace with them around. I am just coming back from travelling the last two years and have decided to just pet sit for the rest of this year. This way I can keep my schedule flexible and spend as much time with animals as possible when I am looking after them. I’m always one to get up and out early especially if the dogs need more than one walk.In my spare time I’m playing music and learning new instruments which keeps me flexible to walk and give attention to pets throughout the day. I love to exercise outdoors, take walks and go for runs, dogs can join for all of these. It’s always a pleasure to have the company and go for extra walks! I have a fenced garden so dogs can spend as much time outside as they like, roaming between here and indoors. There is a good size park across the road for small walks and running around off the lead. Cats can also venture around here safely. From home I can walk to Epsom/Ashtead common for longer walks and more time off the lead. Within a 10 minute drive I can be on Epsom Downs or Horton Country Park, while slightly further there is Headley Heath. This makes it easy to give them a whole variety of walks. If I am to be staying at your place I will be just as keen for many walks. With this being my primary work I will find it easy to give your pets the attention and love they desire. I don’t currently have any pets so at mine your pets would have the place to themselves with me.
“Paris is a kind and lovely girl who made us both feel so welcome. It’s clear she loves pets as if they were her own. Cooper was thoroughly spoilt and we will definitely be booking again with Paris. Thank you again for looking after my boy so well. It means such a lot knowing he’s in safe hands.”

“Wilf loves going to Doggy Day Care with Georgia. From the outset she showed a great warmth towards him and it is plain to see how much she loves being with dogs. We are regularly sent videos and pictures of him playing with Charla and having a great time. Georgia is incredibly flexible with timings and I cannot recommend her highly enough as we are so pleased with how she and her family have welcomed Wilf into their home.”

About: I have a secure private garden and live very close to a local park. I have one cat, one dog, and a one-year-old baby at home. I work from home, so pets are never left alone.

I'm also available for last-minute bookings and can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Whether you’re looking for someone to play with your dog, take them on long walks, or simply keep them company, I’d be happy to help. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I keep you updated with daily photos and messages, so you always know how your furry friend is doing.
About: We are a couple living in a spacious house with a large, fully fenced garden, providing a safe and comfortable environment for dogs to stay. Having grown up around rescue animals in Greece, we have always had a strong love for pets. We cared for our own rescue dog, Chewbacca, for many years after bringing him to the UK, supporting him through old age and age-related health challenges. This experience taught us patience, responsibility, and the importance of adapting to each dog's individual needs. We only take on a small number of dogs at a time so that every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Our home is ideal for dogs that enjoy a calm family environment with secure outdoor space to explore. One of us works from home most of the week, and we carefully plan our schedule to ensure dogs are never left alone for extended periods. We understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and we will care for your dog as if they were our own We both work full-time during the week, but one of us works from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, so there is always someone around on those days. We are fully available on weekends and can dedicate proper time to walks, play, and care. During weekdays, pets will still receive attention in the mornings and evenings, with a consistent routine to keep them comfortable We live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can safely play and relax. Our home is calm and secure, and we always prioritise the pet’s comfort and routine. We have experience with older dogs and understand the importance of patience and supervision, especially with dogs that may need extra care. We only take on pets we can properly manage to ensure a safe and stress-free environment
About: Hi, I'm Anna and I am the ultimate animal lover 👋 I worked in the animal industry for 7 years including pet hotels, doggy daycares and dog training, and having more recently moved to the corporate world I am thrilled to make new furry friends 😻 I grew up in a home where cats, dogs and other small pets were an integral part of the family. I am now the proud cat mum of a siberian kitten. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and competent to care for your pets so I would love to help you look after your companion while you're away.
About: Experience taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes from my girlfriend’s bichon frise to my mates ex-police German shepherds. Looking for a morning/lunchtime/evening walking buddy 🐶 I work from home and typically go for a run/walk anyway Monday-Friday at 7am. I don’t start work until 9am and I am allowed to be away from my laptop for an hour at lunchtime (timing is flexible). I am also flexible from 6pm-9pm in the evenings. Weekends are also flexible with enough notice. I don’t live on my own so I’m not able to dogsit at home unfortunately. Walking in the local area would be my preference.
About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including regularly looking after my sister’s two dogs and cat while she has been away, as well as caring for a friend’s dog. I have also been a cat owner for many years, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency and providing pets with plenty of love, attention and enrichment. My experience has mainly been with cats and small-to-medium sized dogs, but I’m happy to care for dogs of all sizes and take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine and needs. I’m comfortable following instructions for feeding, walks, toilet breaks, playtime and providing companionship. What sets me apart is my caring and reliable approach. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owner is away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured they are happy and well looked after. I currently have flexible daytime and nighttime availability throughout the week, which allows me to provide plenty of time, attention and companionship for your pets. I’m available for walks, toilet breaks, drop-in visits and in-home pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. As a pet owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can feel comfortable and keep their usual routine. I will follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and treat your pets as if they were my own. I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and cared for while you’re away, and I’ll provide updates and photos if so you can feel reassured. I don’t offer boarding at my own home, but I’m happy to provide house sitting, walks, toilet breaks and drop-in visits.
About: I have owned dogs most of my adult life. I care for family owned dogs in their absence. Have my own senior Weimaraner who loves company. Enjoy walking and very close to Non Such Park/Cheam Park for extra long outings. Have suitable transport if needed.

About: Hello! My family have had pets since I was born (dogs, cats, fish, birds, rabbits, chickens, you name it). They still have dogs and I rescue old cats. I live alone, so it gives them a peaceful and happy place to spend their days. I work from home Monday to Friday, so I am able to drop in for short visits during the day, or walk your furry pups before or after work. I am also available over some weekends, if needed. Just let me know how I can help! I have a old ginger boy called Gerald. He has run of the house and private garden. He rules the roost. As a pet owner, I am very mindful of the security and safety of all animals. Doors/windows being closed. Caution upon entry and leaving nothing out that could cause any issues.
About: Animals have been a constant in my life from a young age. Life without their companionship isn’t worth living in my opinion. I have a broad experience of animal care from my own beloved pets - from puppy and kitten stage including training and more intense levels of engagement, play and attention, right up to senior years including administration of medications, monitoring conditions, and adapting care to suit the needs to frail or disabled animals. From a young age I offered private dog walking to my local area, both on and off leash, and different distances and levels of interaction depending on the needs and age of the dog and I am currently the go to dog walker, sitter and drop in for my neighbours one of whom has just welcomed a new puppy into their household and with whom I am regularily assisting with toilet breaks, walks, and feeding where needed. I have two cats of my own, who, I also walk having leash trained them from a young age. Living close to a busy road has meant that inorder to provide my kitties with the enrichment and stimulation they deserve, I make sure that I take them out every day if I can where we enjoy play, sunbathing and ‘sniff tours’. I am a reliable and trustworthy individual who will treat your beloved pet as I would my own. I take animal care very seriously and will go over and above to ensure the safety and happiness of all animals within my care. I rent two antiques stalls at a local antique centre, which allows me complete flexibility in my daily life. I can attend to my stall, at times that suit me; as little or as often as I need to. Therefore, I am able to offer complete flexibility when it comes to availability for pet care. I have mentioned already in my bio about my two beloved cats and the leash training that I have done with them and the outdoor enrichment this provides them safely, in an area which is otherwise, in my opinion, not safe for cats to roam freely. I devote myself to my pets and to the animals in my care; their needs come first, always. I offer everything from hands on engagement, play, grooming, medication administration and exercise to distanced companionship for those who want space and nothing more than to feel a presence within the home or an owner who requires the peace of mind that a watchful eye provides while they are away.
About: I have a 7 year old Bichon Frise (Rosie), and grew up with pet dogs & cats. This has given me vast experience in caring for dogs & cats, I work part-time which allows me to work and help fellow pet owners, with caring for and ensuring they are taken care of and exercised if required. I work part time which allows me to be flexible, to work for you and your pets needs. I drive so it is no problem for me to do pick ups and drop offs, and offer house visits to keep your pet company. In my home pets are treated like part of the family. They will receive a lot of love and attention to make them feel at home. The back garden is fenced and secure for your pet to explore.
“Perfect . Could not be happier to have found Steve who was super competent and I my dogs loved him . After the walk Steve gave me a detailed report which was so good . He has a really good understanding of dog behaviour above what I had expected . My Dobie is super bouncy but I saw a calming effect Steve had on her . Many thanks”

I work from home 3 days a week, and then at home during the weekend too. I enjoy the company of animals whilst I am working from home, also i enjoy the fresh walks at the weekend and the joy of playing with them and my children like to get involved too.

Our care will be customised to suit your dog’s age and needs, and we will follow all your instructions for your peace of mind. We enjoy long walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise! Please note we live in a flat with no garden access, but we are within 5-10 min of various parks. My husband and I work from home every day, which grants us the flexibility to care for your pet, giving them plenty of cuddles and lots of walks! We have very flexible jobs, so we can guarantee plenty of walks if that is what your dog needs. :) We are located less than a 3-minute walk from Epsom train station, making it easy for you to drop your dog off on your way to catch the train. Convenient! Our flat offers a welcoming and cosy environment for your pets. For your stay, all you need to bring is your pet's bed, food, bowls, and favourite toys, and we'll ensure they are entertained and exercised! Just let us know anything your pet might need to settle in, and we will be more than happy to accommodate and follow your routine. We're delighted to share our sofa with your little one, provided that doesn't break your home rules!
About: I have looked after and helped take care of animals for many years and I absolutely love it. I really enjoy the process of building a connection with an animal and getting to know them. During my travels over the last couple of years I have looked after a whole variety of dogs and cats. I am always very active and so love taking dogs for walks, runs or hikes. While I also love to relax, play and cuddle with them too. I would say I particularly connect with bigger more active dogs but the smaller ones also have a place in my heart. I brought up a Labrador puppy and have gained more experience with training all sorts of dogs, finding it easy to have the patience required to train them. I have built my best connections with cats over the last five years, also looking after stray cats along my travels whenever possible. I find connecting with them and really understanding a particular cats personality comes naturally to me. I’m always more at peace with them around. I am just coming back from travelling the last two years and have decided to just pet sit for the rest of this year. This way I can keep my schedule flexible and spend as much time with animals as possible when I am looking after them. I’m always one to get up and out early especially if the dogs need more than one walk.In my spare time I’m playing music and learning new instruments which keeps me flexible to walk and give attention to pets throughout the day. I love to exercise outdoors, take walks and go for runs, dogs can join for all of these. It’s always a pleasure to have the company and go for extra walks! I have a fenced garden so dogs can spend as much time outside as they like, roaming between here and indoors. There is a good size park across the road for small walks and running around off the lead. Cats can also venture around here safely. From home I can walk to Epsom/Ashtead common for longer walks and more time off the lead. Within a 10 minute drive I can be on Epsom Downs or Horton Country Park, while slightly further there is Headley Heath. This makes it easy to give them a whole variety of walks. If I am to be staying at your place I will be just as keen for many walks. With this being my primary work I will find it easy to give your pets the attention and love they desire. I don’t currently have any pets so at mine your pets would have the place to themselves with me.
“We are newly into a weekly arrangement with Gerry, and so far it is going extremely well. Gerry is clearly a huge dog lover and super experienced, and our pup Violet has taken to her really quickly and really well. We would definitely recommend Gerry!”
About: I have a lifetime of hands-on experience with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. I’m calm, patient, and truly in tune with animals' needs.

“Captain has just come home from another lovely stay with Shirley, and he was all waggy tails and happiness when we picked him up. I can’t recommend Shirley highly enough, she is so caring and professional, and I always know Captain will be incredibly well looked after. I love all the photo updates and having someone who takes such special care of him means a lot to us.”
“I am so pleased we found Emma and her partner to look after Lola. We genuinely couldn’t be happier with how they treated her like their own right from the start. They really go above and beyond regular dog sitting, catering to her every need, which means a lot since she’s a senior dog and can get a bit anxious. The detailed daily updates and gorgeous photos throughout our 10 days away gave us total peace of mind. We honestly can't thank them enough and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier care 🐾🥰”
“Dominika is absolutely lovely and I immediately felt comfortable leaving my puppy Alfie with her. She has a beautiful set up with lovely garden and was kind sending photos and updates during Alfie’s stay. I will be booking again soon I’m sure! Thank you Dominika 🙏”
“Our Border Collie Bess had a lovely time with Katarina and her family and their laid back dog Fred! Communication was excellent and Katarina was kind enough to send regular photo updates while we were away. The big plus is the lovely wooded area immediately behind their back garden so the dogs were able to be walked regularly and safely, away from main roads and traffic etc. Everything worked out very nicely indeed, thank you Katarina.”
“Roxy was absolutely amazing with our very energetic Retriever/German Shepherd cross! Had her for 5 nights. Fabulous communication. Met us twice before. Literally perfect. Super person. Can’t recommend enough.”
“Amanda is really lovely and our dog Ozzie had a great weekend with her and Barney! Nice for us to have pictures/messages to know he's happy. He slept very well when he came home! Thanks again”
“Our puppy Monty was well looked after by Melissa and her husband. This was our first time leaving our 7 month old cocker with anyone since we got him so we were of course a little anxious about how he would feel being in someone else’s care but Melissa was so warm and welcoming and even met with us a few weeks before hand for a walk so we could all get to know each other and it really put me at ease to know he would be in such good hands 😊 Melissa sent us lots of pictures daily whilst we were away and spent all of her time with Monty, taking him for lots of long walks and letting him play in their paddling pool. I did not have to worry about Monty at all - he was having the best time. Despite not having any dogs of her own Melissa was very loving, caring and knowledgable with our boy. We will definitely be using Melissa and her husband again in the future. Thank you so much 🐶”
“We left Juno with Alex for a week. Alex and her family took very good care of Juno. We could tell that Juno had really enjoyed her stay especially being around with the kids. We would love to keep Juno again with Alex.”
“Harry was incredible for our pup. Front the start, Harry was incredible communicative and detail oriented in his approach to finding out about our pup. With a weeks long stay looming and our first time leaving him with a stranger for this long, Harry eased our worries by offering two meets up prior. Hamish enjoyed walks often and Harry made sure to give us lots of updates and photos whilst we were away. It was clear Hamish was more than content with Harry. From the photos, you could tell he was incredibly relaxed and loved all the cuddles and attention he got. Would not hesitate booking Harry again. Just wished he stayed around the UK longer so we could use him as our go to sitter! 🤪”
“Richard and his family were absolutely amazing with Pablo - so loving, attentive and great at communicating. I'd recommend anyone who has a pet who needs looking after to use Richard :)”
“Lovely couple!! Looked after my boy Blue for 24 hours regularly updating me with messages and photos which was great. He seemed to be right at home and looked like he really enjoyed his time, so thank you!!”
“I would give 6 stars if I could, Luigi had a fabulous weekend!! Rhianna booked me super last minute and was super accommodating. I have tried several sitters but tmher comms was the best I've had so far - I received loads of updates throughout the weekend so I wasn't worried in any way. Luigi was administered all his meds as instructed which was very reassuring. My boy is a precious cavvie and he spent the weekend on blankets being cuddles so he really had the best time. I couldn't recommend Rhianna highly enough, I'll definitely reach out again if ever in need! Thank you so much again!”
“This was the first time Kobi had stayed and he was looked after really well - lots of cuddles, walks, chill time and even ate his food! I really hope Kobi can come back and stay soon and great to know you’re so local to us.”
