“Susan was absolutely great! Otis had the best time and was looked after. Susan was great with time adjustments we needed which was much appreciated. Would not hesitate to reach out to Susan again.”


“Laura was great. We had a last minute change of plans and she was able to take our 9 month old pup for the day. Really good communication and she was flexible too. Seems like our pup had a great day playing with her dog & has come home happy and very tired (peaceful evening for us!). Wouldn't hesitate to book with Laura again.”


“Judith was a fantastic sitter for Poppy, very caring and with a lot of experience. Poppy was excited to go back the next day! Would definitely recommend, and we will be staying again!”



“Debbie & Andrew are special people and it is clear that they have real knowledge and love of dogs. Robbie, our collie, had a wonderful time in their care. Despite the awful weather, they were outside giving the dogs in their care fun and exercise. Robbie had such a good experience! From start to finish, communication with Debbie & Andrew was excellent. This is our first time using Rover and certainly will not be the last thanks to Debbie & Andrew. I highly recommend them. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Irene & Robbie”


“Thanks so much to Cheryl for having Roxy our 11 month old Cockapoo 🐾 who is a little anxious being left and still in training - you’ve been incredibly loving with her and it was great to see the updates throughout the day - I’d definitely be using you again in the future future”


“Lucca had a lovely day with Michelle, it was the first time we have left her with anyone Michelle sent photos and Lucca looked very relaxed, she had cuddles and walks, and came home very happy.”


About: With 10 years of experience working with dogs, I’ve developed a strong, natural understanding of their behaviour, needs, and personalities, along with a wide range of practical skills. From a young age, I took the initiative to volunteer at multiple doggy daycares, where I cared for a diverse mix of dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I’ve had the privilege of working with playful puppies who thrive on stimulation, structure, and training, as well as senior dogs who require a gentler pace, extra patience, and comfort. As a devoted dog owner myself, I understand the pressure and concern that comes with finding the right person to look after your dog. When your pup is in my care, they’ll be welcomed into both my home and heart—receiving the love, attention, and tail wags they truly deserve!🐾☺️ Upon booking, I’ll ask for full details regarding your dog’s usual routine—whether it’s feeding times, toilet breaks, preferred walking routes, or bedtime habits. I’ll follow these closely to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. Unlike many other sitters who have full-time jobs or other commitments, I’m able to give your dog my full, undivided attention, ensuring they are never left unattended. My home is located in Preston town centre, offering easy access to a wide variety of walking routes, parks, and scenic spots for your dog to explore🌈. I live in a ground floor apartment within a secure complex, which features a gated entrance requiring a pin code for access, 24/7 CCTV surveillance, and an additional pin-protected entry to the apartment block itself. This layered security ensures your pup is safe and well protected at all times! Inside, my home is a clean, smoke-free, and comfortable environment where your pets are more than welcome to relax on the sofa for plenty of snuggles and cuddles, or indulge in some fun with their favourite toys.☺️🐾

“Charlie had the best time with Michael and Angela. I was always going to be worried the first time dropping him off with a new sitter, but I felt instantly at ease. Regular updates, and Charlie got all the attention. I'm glad I've found Michael, as I know my dog is not only in safe hands, but treated the way I would treat him (if not better!) Thank you again and I would absolutely recommend to anyone thinking about booking.”


“I left my dog while attending a family event. He settled really quickly and was well taken care of. I was updated with regular pictures throughout the day with excellent communications throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or leave him again.”

“Absolutely recommend Catherine for your pets. My girls were very well looked after and very much enjoyed their time staying with Catherine. Lola can be shy and nervous but this wasn’t a problem and on my way to pick her up I saw Lola getting cuddles through the window which was a lovely surprise. I was kept in touch all day and sent photos of the girls enjoying themselves. 5 stars without a doubt ❤️”


About: I’ve had dogs in the home all my life and regularly care for family pets when they are away. We finally took the plunge and welcomed our beautiful Pugapoo, Piper, 4 months ago. Piper is a bundle of fun, super loving and loyal. She loves long walks and just being in other people’s company. Piper regularly interacts with other dogs in the family and our home has children old and young who she adores.

Evenings and Weekends are all about fresh air and walking for us so you can be assured your dog will get plenty of excercise and attention. We will happily discuss your dogs needs and routine and so our best to accommodate so that they feel right at home. Happy to send regular pics and updates. Lauren & Andy My husband We both work almost exclusively at home so we can give your dog all the attention needed and ensure the dogs toilet needs are met. We have a fenced off garden that the dogs can have access to all day, also lots of lovely open fields and walks near by.

“Everything was spot on, several update sthroughout the day. My puppy was clearly happy and settled and had walks throughout the day. Will be using Matthew again for sure”


“I cannot recommend Aaliyah enough, she has put me at ease as I was so nervous about finding a day care for my 7month old vizsla. Our girl is very soft and can be anxious around dogs so a 1-1 day care was the better option for us. Aaliyah and her partner both came for a meet and greet prior to me booking Gabi in with them which instantly put me at ease, Gabi loved them from the moment she met them. Aaliyah and her partner have taken such great care of Gabi whilst me and my partner have been at work and the updates and pictures have put me at ease. We are really greatful for her taking such good care of Gabi and treating her like the princess she is, Gabi will definitely be back”


“Nicola did a phenomenal job with klopp was really understanding of his reactivity engaged him in play time and walks a true wholesome person klopp loved her and will back again 🖤🥀”


About: Deborah & Poppy’s doggy daycare/boarding Both myself and my daughter, with who I share the responsibility of the dogs we look after, love caring for all animals. I have lived with dogs since I was born, and have raised my children (who are all grown up now) in the same way. We love dog walkies, and have a wonderful large back garden to play fetch in too. My daughter studies from home, and I now have plenty of spare time to spend with my favourite animals (and spoil them!). We sadly lost our own dog to cancer earlier this year. Towards the end she had lots of special medical requirements including nappy wearing, medications, and help getting around the house. We now want to care for dogs in our own time, and don’t want to go through loosing another. I am currently only working when I feel like working so I have plenty of time on my hands to care and look after dogs of all breeds and give them plenty of love . I have a large fenced garden for them to play ,and gates with locks on so they can’t escape , cameras in the front and back of the house and were I live is a very safe village in the countryside .

“Having Tom look after Coco was a brilliant decision. From the outset we knew that Coco was in patient, knowledgable and friendly hands. We had photos and videos sent us which helped put our mind at ease. Coco was absolutely pooped when he got home and slept very well. There would be no hesitation in using Tom again. Absolutely lovely person who cares about dogs and understands them. Thank you Tom ;)”


“Millie was very relaxed and happy spending the day with Jo and Peach and we had complete confidence that Millie was well looked after as though she was part of the family. She had a lovely walk and play time. Would highly recommend Mary Puppins and the woof pack and we will definitely be booking again! Ian, Vicky & Millie the dog ?”

“We used the Day Care Service for the first time offered by Naomi and received excellent service. Naomi was very flexible in changing the drop off time to accommodate our stay. Thank you. ❤”

“I would highly recommend Lucy as a pet caregiver, as a dog owner herself she shares a passion for animals and an overall love for them. She has cared for both of my dogs Ronnie & Elanor on numerous occasions when we have been away, holiday, wedding etc, they have an amazing bond with her and we never have any issues they are always pleased and excited to see her. She does everything and more for them, feeding, walking, days out even as far as bathing when Ronnie got a little mucky! I highly recommend Lucy :)”

Rebecca B.
“Bex and Ashleigh have plenty of experience and they do genuinely care and always make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. What I really like is that they took time to understand my dog and tailor to their needs. When looking after my nervous rescue Harper, who needs a slower approach, they were gentle and respectful, giving her space and time to settle. They have a natural ability to build a strong bond and keep dogs relaxed and happy. They’ve also looked after my dad’s small, bossy Lhasa X Jackadoodle and handled him well too. Their own doggy, Rudy, is super soft, playful, and well-natured, and I even got to snuggle with her on the sofa, which was lovely. Another bonus is having a secure garden and dogs have freedom to roam inside or outside without worrying, and being allowed on the sofa and the bed for all the snuggles they want! They’re reliable and will happily give you regular updates if you want like I do, so that’s brilliant and gives me peace of mind. I’d happily leave my dog with them again. They’d be my first choice every time whenever I'm visiting!”

They have their own pooch and the house is well equipped with lots of garden space at the rear and well located for long walks. Your pet will be loved, safe, and very well looked after with round the clock devotion to ensure your pet will never be left alone.”
