5. Lisa L.

“I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough. Have used her twice now and the second time I took my dog to her he jumped out the car and ran to her door. Lisa even picked Capone up for me on our first visit as we had an early flight. Lisa is kind, great communicator and very clearly AMAZING with dogs. Absolutely brilliant find x”


6. Sara R.

“Sara and her family took amazing care of Dolly! It was the first time Dolly stayed with Sara, so like many owners you are always a little nervous about leaving your dog with someone new… but Sara made sure we had regular updates and asked all the right questions so I knew Dolly was in good hands! No doubt Dolly will be going back for more stays in the future! Thanks again!!!”


7. Emily R.

“Emily and Scott are truly amazing! I can't say enough wonderful things about them both. I was so nervous about leaving my pup behind for the first time, but they quickly put all my worries at ease. From the moment I walked into their beautiful, welcoming home, I felt completely comfortable—it didn’t feel like it was our first time meeting. Biscuit quickly settled in and was so happy to be there. Their home is incredibly dog-friendly, and it’s clear they genuinely love what they do. Throughout my time away, Emily sent regular updates and adorable pictures, which I absolutely loved and looked forward to each day. Her communication was excellent—she always responded quickly to my messages. They truly treated Biscuit like one of their own, which meant the world to me. Honestly, I was almost afraid he wouldn’t want to come back home—he was on his own little holiday too! I’ve already rebooked with them for our next trip and won’t even consider looking anywhere else for Biscuit’s care. I highly recommend Emily and Scott—you (and your pup) will be in the best hands!”


8. Lana Z.

9. Jing S.

“From the photos I could she that Sandy was having a great time. Jing kept me updated and I could see that their Daisy loved Sandy. I would definitely use their service again.”

“Thank you so much for looking after Bella while we were away. It was extremely hot and you ensured Bella was as comfortable as possible while in your care which put our minds at rest. Thank you again, we will be in touch when we next go away!”


12. Andre F.

“Andre and his partner were incredible at looking after our two boys, Louis and Ralph (Frenchies). Being Frenchies, they can be a little tough work and especially as Ralph medical challenges and is also anxious around other dogs and can nip. Andre took the time to listen to our boys personalities, wants and needs and was able to provide an incredible stay for them as a home away from home. We will definitely be looking forward book Andre again as finding someone who understands the boys and is able to care for them in such a good way took a weight off of our minds! Thank you so much”

17. Tess S.

“Our active cockapoo had a wonderful stay with Tess when we went away for a few days and still hasn't quite forgiven us for collecting him two days ago!! Tess sent us photo/video updates whilst we were away and clearly our boy settled in with her with reassuring ease. It was wonderful to be able to leave him in the care of someone who clearly loves dogs and who also took on board the care/routines/rules he is used to at home. Thank you so much Tess!! 😊”

About: We are a family with a 1.5 year old, 3 year old stabijhoun dog (20kg) and 5 year old ragdoll cat. Our dog has separation anxiety so we never leave her alone - so your pet would get the same attention! We live behind a park and woods so lots of good walks and we both work from home. Any dog would have to be used to children and cats. We both work from home and can do dog walks in the morning/lunch/ after work and have a detached house with a fenced garden for extra play with our dog. The house backs on to a field and woodland which is perfect for the dogs. Any dog would have to be used to children and cats. We have a fenced garden and a lovely temperament stabijhoun female dog. Detached house with great walks nearby and two of us available for cuddles.


19. Vicky H.

“Vicky is amazing 😻 my dog doesn’t like to stay without me, I so have been worried about it. But Vicky has found a special way to get friends with her. Everything was excellent, Vicky always sent me photos from every walk. And when my dog came back home I saw that she missed Vicky and her family 😌 Vicky, thanks a lot for your help. I highly recommend Vicky as an excellent care for your small friend 😊”


20. Ewelina S.

“Took Lilo, my little whippet here for a stay and she had the best of stays! Entertained throughout and has gained a new friend in Butters Will definitely use them again in the future”
