We have a 3 legged disabled Rottweiler who has vulnerabilities and can be very cautious with people she doesn’t know. We contacted Jake who went out of his way to adapt his home for her as she struggles with smooth wooden floors. We tried an overnight stay to see how she is and how he bonds with her. Jake went above and beyond to accommodate Xena. We then went on our family holiday and he sent regular updates and worked on the bond and building the trust with Xena over the 2 week period. He gained her trust to overcome her vulnerabilities and we got regular updates and photos. I would highly recommend Jake. He put our minds at ease knowing our dog was getting what she needed and was well looked after. Thanks Jake 👍

He spent 4 nights whilst we were away and Rachel kept me updated throughout each day with pictures and messages she really put our minds at ease about leaving him. I couldn't recommend her enough !

Katy is an amazing Dogsitter, my dog Finch was so comfortable and relaxed he didn’t want to come home. It was great getting daily updates about how he was getting on and seeing how well he’d settled with her 2 dogs. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely be booking in with Katy next time we go away.

We were updated regularly as requested and were able to switch off and relax for our full holiday knowing Bella was in the best care. Will be booking Bella her stay next year with Katie for sure! Highly highly recommend Katie.

She messaged me regularly with photos to show where they had been on their walks. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my dogs when I’m on holiday and I hope to book her again next year.

About: I’ve always grew up around dogs and have a cockapoo of my own who is turning 6 this year. He is my pride and joy and have had him since he was a puppy. I should be available to mind your dog when my beloved boy is not in the house which is usually every other weekend. I work full time so would not be able to take your dog unless I was off work during the week. I would be available most evenings if required for dog walk or dog sit. I have a high fenced back yard. I am happy to take any bedding/ blankets belonging to the pet to make them feel more comfortable within my own home. I also allow dogs on my furniture and bed as feel they should be treated like part of the family . The dog would never be left alone within my care where I go they go and if they don’t like social settings that’s fine, walks and chills on the sofa also work for me! For every dog I consider taking I would like to meet the dog and owners to understand the dog and make sure I can meet its needs. I am also happy to send owners updates of the dog when they are under my care as I know it’s Important to know your dog is having a good time!

We cannot thank Matt and Stacey enough for taking such incredible care of our precious Mia. She’s an anxious little rescue who usually takes her sweet time to trust anyone—but with Matt and Stacey, it was like she found her second home! Their patience, love, and calm energy worked absolute wonders. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog (something we didn’t think was possible!). If you’re looking for sitters who genuinely get sensitive dogs and treat them like family, we couldn’t recommend Matt and Stacey more. Total legends!
