“Rachael was great with Chester. He absolutely loved being there. When he was picked up, he was very happy and tired and slept for hours when back at home I could tell had a fun time. I will definitely be using Rachael again. Highly recommended.”
“James took great care of Bailey and I couldn’t be happier with her stay. He sent me regular updates and photos throughout, which was really reassuring and gave me peace of mind. Bailey came home happy, relaxed and clearly well looked after. Communication was excellent, and the whole experience was smooth from drop-off to collection. I would definitely book with James again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Mark and Helen looked after Simba as if he were their own dog. We were so happy knowing Simba was being so cared for in every way while we were on holiday. We can't recommend them high enough, we met with Mark and Helen before Simba's stay any worries we had about taking him to stay there were gone completely after chatting with them. Simba's a 10 year old dog set in his ways everything was accommodated with smiles and like it was completely normal. Anyone leaving their dog with Mark and Helen will be as happy as we were. They were fantastic thankyou so much to you both, such a lovely couple xxx”
“Marcus and Mia were such a lovely couple - I really appreciated the daily updates, and I know Luna had a wonderful time because she came back absolutely pooped! I was also very grateful for their flexibility on timings as we were travelling quite a distance and had traffic to consider, etc. Overall a great experience. 🐾”
“Heather is a natural dog mummy! We were nervous leaving Briar with her as she had never been left with anyone other than family before. Heather and her family were relaxed and welcoming, their home was perfect for our little dog. We had multiple updates, photos and videos that were reassuring and made our experience so positive. I would highly recommend Heather as a sitter and would definitely leave my furry princess with her again in the future. Our little dog had a fabulous time.”
“Piper had a good 3 week stay with Daniel. We received updates throughout, which really put our minds at ease, and by all accounts she was very well looked after. When she was collected happy and content we’d definitely recommend Daniel and would happily book again!”
“Daniela was so lovely and warm, Luka was immediately at ease in her home and I was very happy leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and photos and Luka looked super relaxed and happy in them! He came home very reluctantly after clearly having a great time. Would not hesitate to recommend her :)”
“Sarah and her family provided the perfect environment in which to leave my dog Willow for a couple of days. Warm, welcoming and so friendly. I was only envious that we couldn’t stay ourselves! Highly recommended! Willow will be back soon :) James”
“Anna looked after my two dogs a Labrador and a collie x lab for 1 night. Anna was quick to reply to my initial message and arranged a meet and greet. While our dogs were with her she sent lots of pictures and updates and took them on lots of walks. They slept very well once they returned home. I can tell they were very well looked after. Anna was flexible with pick up and drop off and gave me complete peace of mind while my dogs were with her. I will definitely use Anna again in the future.”
“My girls didn’t even hesitate when Georgina opened the door to them, they ran straight in and made themselves at home, the best home setting I could wish for for them. We were updated with how things were going throughout the stay and I wasn’t worried for a minute. Georgina and her family are the only people we want the girls to go to when we go away. Thank you”
“Halley and Eddie were great - from the moment I dropped Trevor off I knew he was going to be well-looked after for the weekend. Halley was brilliant at communicating from the initial enquiry and throughout Trevor's stay, sending updates with pictures too which were really appreciated. Trevor loved his walks over at Cox's Meadow and came home happy and tired. Would highly recommend to all. Thank you Halley and Eddie.”
“Humphrey loves staying with Claire. As always Claire kept me well informed about how he was getting on and sent lots of photos. Such a weight off my mind when leaving him. Would highly recommend.”
“Willow had a lovely time with Beth and Dan and their red fox lab Darcy. Willow is a very bouncy 5 month old working cocker spaniel and I was concerned she would be too annoying. However, it seems that Darcy and Willow had a lovely time playing and the photos and videos they sent showed willow looking quite calm at times which is rare! Beth and Dan have had lots of experience with many breeds of dogs and put my mind at ease when we visited for a meet and greet. I would happily have Willow stay with them again as I know she’d have a great time.”
“Our dog Bodie had the best 10 days with Kristen! We instantly felt at ease leaving our dog in her safe hands! You can honestly see how much love and attention she gave him! I knew she was the perfect sitter for our pup! We had regular updates on how our dog was getting on during his stay which again , made leaving him feel that much easier! Would 100% recommend and would absolutely use your services again! Thank you so much for having him!!”
“The perfect match for Ronnie. Kell took Ronnie for a long walk over the Malverns which he loved. Ronnie does have a lot of energy and Kell played ball with him in the garden to keep him occupied.”
“We picked Sarah because of her training and the fact she had experience with dogs through her studying, for 11 nights whilst myself and my partner went away. We had regular updates, felt like Big Boys needs were catered for and she responded quickly when/if we needed to speak. Sarah gave big boy the love and attention he needed, which enabled us to relax without any anxiety regarding our lads care.”

“Shannon did a great job looking after our Ragdoll Milo. She visited him everyday and we received every detail of him every time she visited. She was very flexible and communicated well with us and at the same time she was very understanding about our concern over Milo. Milo had become very friendly with Shannon and had lots of cuddles🥰. We were very happy with what she did for our little fur baby and we would never hesitate to book her again😍”
“Lily did an excellent job looking after my cat. Lily was very consistent, arriving on time every day and leaving a rover card on each visit with a short update and lots of pictures of my cat so I could see she was well looked after. 🙂 Lily also kept my cat safe taking her around the garden with a harness after checking with me. I was able to enjoy my holiday knowing my cat was in good hands. 🙂”
“Gemma was amazing. The cats liked her immediately and we couldn’t be happier with the service. Thank you so much for taking care of our babies and entertaining them while we were away.”
“Courtney has been great with my kitty Monna. I got daily updates/peace of mind and Monna got daily entertainment/belly rubs. We'll definitely be in touch again when we need help next 🙂”
“Alex was brilliant when looking after our 2 cats! She was really friendly, easy to get on with, and we felt completely at ease leaving them with her. She understood their different needs and personalities right away - handling our very nervous cat perfectly, (including managing to give her medication) and giving our younger boy all the fuss and attention he needed! She kept the house tidy, cleaning up some cat sick, washing up bowls etc, and sent daily updates so we never had to worry. Could not recommend her enough!”
“Lisa is great! She looked after our cat really well while we were away over Christmas. We loved having the daily update and seeing photos of Oreo enjoying plenty of attention. It is so obvious that Lisa is a true animal lover and really cares about her charges. Nothing phased her including clearing up cat sick and a couple of dead mice in the house! I have no hesitation in recommending Lisa’s services and will be booking her again next time we go on holiday. 😊”
About: I’ve had cats all my life and they are honestly the loves of my life. I have experience with your normal moggy, to British Shorthairs and Exotics and even Siamese. I’ve given cats oral medications, topical treatments and not fussed about cleaning out litter trays
About: I’ve always loved animals as a child and more so now as an adult. I have a miniature dachshund of my own & spend a lot of time with my mum’s 5 year old dog too. I have often spent spare time previously dog walking & visiting animals of friends & family whilst they were away. I can’t wait to meet you & your lovely pet!😊 I work full time but from home. So I am able to take care of your pet anytime of the day. Whether this is popping in throughout the day to check on them, walking them in the mornings, evenings and on my lunch. I can also house sit any day of the week as I am able to work from anywhere!😊 I am able to work with all breeds and types of animals. If your pet needs some extra care or has any additional needs please let me know, I am more than happy to help!
“First time using a cat sitter and we were so pleased rebecca was able to come and keep an eye out on our boy during the hot weather. We had a meet and greet before we went away and were kept updated with daily feedback and pictures which gave us peace of mind. 100% recommended and would ask Rebecca to come again if she was free”
About: I’ve looked after friends’ cats while they’ve been away, including feeding them, refreshing their water, cleaning litter trays, spending time playing with them, and making sure they have plenty of company and affection (if they want it!). I know every cat has their own personality and routine, so I’m happy to adapt to their needs and make sure they feel relaxed, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home.
“Heather has been brilliant from the beginning, she came round a few times before the sitting date to learn the meds too. Heather is easy to communicate with and we came home to some very happy cats, we’re very grateful to her!”
About: Hi, I’m Karolina! If you’re looking for someone who will care for your cat as if they were part of my own family, I’d love to help. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Although most of my experience has been with dogs, I’ve always loved cats too. We had our own family cat, and these days I’ve somehow become friends with three of my neighbours’ cats—they’re usually waiting to say hello before I’ve even made it through the front door after work! I also worked in an animal shelter, where I cared for animals of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. My role included feeding, transporting animals, helping with recoveries after surgery, welcoming new arrivals and providing day-to-day care. Every animal was different, and that experience taught me to be patient, gentle and to always adapt to their individual personality and needs. I understand that cats like things done on their terms. Whether your cat is playful and curious or prefers a quiet nap and their own space, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well looked after while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your cat is in caring hands. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or special requests. I look forward to meeting you and your feline friend! 🐾

I’m currently offering friendly, reliable local dog walks and drop-in visits around Cheltenham. Whether your dog needs a relaxed sniffy walk, some company while you’re at work, a toilet break or a more energetic outing, I’m happy to tailor their time to what they enjoy. I’m confident with larger dogs as well as smaller breeds, puppies and dogs who need a little extra patience. I believe walks should be enjoyable, calm and safe — not just about covering as many miles as possible! I have my own German Shepherd, Khan, so I understand how important it is to find somebody you genuinely trust with your dog. I’m currently studying professional dog training and behaviour and have completed IMDT training, but you absolutely don’t need to have a “difficult” dog to book me — I’m just as happy taking your friendly family dog for a lovely walk. I’m available for regular weekly walks, occasional walks and drop-in visits around Cheltenham. As someone with a flexible schedule, I can offer dog walking and pet care services that fit seamlessly into your routine.

“Micol is just amazing and Oscar absolutely loves her. She is so conscientious and updates me thoroughly. It's always nerve wracking leaving your fur baby in the hands of someone else, but I feel 100% confident and relaxed when Micol is looking in. In fact, I think Oscar is starting to prefer her to me! 😂 ”
“I cannot recommend Tatiana-fleur enough! She stepped in at the last minute after another sitter dropped out, and I couldn’t have been more grateful. Despite the short notice, she was professional, communicative, and took excellent care of my cat. She provided updates with photos, and it was clear my cat was in great hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter, look no further.”

About: I’ve looked after so many different breeds of dog for family, friends and neighbours, including my own pug and frenchie. I’m confident in applying topics medication, grooming and bathing I work flexibly full time, working from home 4 days a week. I go on daily hour long lunchtime walks anyway, as well as being free most evenings and weekends I’m comfortable in crating and grooming pets, as well as giving them peace or cuddles when they need or want it. I think I’m quite good at recognising animals signals
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, growing up with four schnauzers and a cocker spaniel. I also had my own schnauzer, Teo, back in Colombia, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. I’ll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I run my own freelance interior design business from my home studio, which gives me the flexibility to organise my schedule around my clients’ and their pets’ needs. This means I can offer home visits throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, toilet breaks, and companionship. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends where possible, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your preferred times. I’m also happy to arrange a free meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other and make sure it’s the right fit for both you and your pet. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my priority. I currently offer home visits and dog walking, as I believe many pets are happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, making sure they have fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages for extra peace of mind. At the moment, I don’t offer pet boarding at my own home as I don’t have a garden. However, it’s something I’d love to offer in the future when I have the right outdoor space. Until then, I’m committed to providing reliable, caring visits in your pet’s own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“James and Leah were fantastic. So friendly and accommodating. My dog had a great time with them and was well taken care of. I know that he's excited to go back. I'll definitely be using them again”
“Izabela was brilliant. She is super friendly, helpful and my dogs had a fantastic time. She responded quickly to my last minute request and immediately put me at ease when we met. My dogs had a lovely time and slept all the way home. I would 100% recommend Izabella and hope to meet her again.”
“Luna loves going to Leah's, I always know she's happy and well cared for and getting lots of enrichment. She loves having a run and play with the other dogs and cuddling up with Leah and James. They have done an amazing job at making her comfortable in a new place”

“This was Hugo’s first time staying with her, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She sent lots of pictures, which really reassured me and showed how comfortable and happy he was. It was clear from the start how kind and lovely she is with him. I’m so grateful for the care she gave Hugo.”
About: My name is Annabelle and I live in Cheltenham. I have owned dogs as family pets for the last 12 years and grew up around dogs. As a teenager I would walk family and friends dogs daily but unfortunatley couldn't own them due to my parents work schedules!! My children have grown up around dogs (and cats) and show so much affection towards them. I enjoy walks in the woods in our local area as well as travelling further afield to take advantage of longer walks. I have set my availiability calendar to the days that I work from home. I am more than happy to visit your dog daily, I can either walk them alone or with Buddy. Or they can come and play with Buddy whilst I am home. I work with the door open so your dog can be inside and outside as much as they like. I have a fenced garden and the back door is open at all times whilst I am here. Buddy, my dog, will be in the house too so they will have a friend to play with. I have a medium and large crate available should you require your dog crating at anytime.
“Kim helped with pick-up and drop-off when we requested, which we really appreciated. The care was good overall, but communication was quite slow. Thank you for taking care if Lara for the day.”
“Laura was a great communicator, she sent photos though out the stay. She was friendly and accommodating to our dogs needs. We felt really happy leaving our rescue dog with her. Thank you!”
“Leanne and her partner Pav, are such lovely and warm people and also big dog lovers! Ripley had a lovely time with them and they kept on sending pics with updates throughout the day. 😊🐾”
“Can't recommend Claire enough, really helped us out incredibly last minute, and Ayce came home after day care incredibly chilled out and happy, he obviously had a great day!!”

“Sophie was once again an absolute star with Joey! As he was unfamiliar with being in new surroundings, he unfortunately left his "mark" in multiple places in Sophie's house shortly after we arrived. Sophie was very understanding and forgiving :-) Joey has a great day exploring and giving and receiving cuddles, and Sophie was kind enough to brave the storm to drop him at home quite late at night. Fab experience again and I will have no hesitation in continuing to use Sophie's services and recommend her to others.”

Other general bits: - 11 years medical experience - enhanced DBS check - full clean drivers license I currently work 9-5 and I usually have weekends off and occasionally some week days which would allow me to look after pets!

“Shannon was warm and friendly. She ensured we had a meet & greet before walking Luka and asked me questions about Luka's needs. Shannon went the extra mile in looking after Luka for longer than agreed due to a mix-up by my mum, and she was very patient and understanding about it. Luka came home happy and nicely tired out from his walks. Would recommend Shannon and use her services again.”
About: I learnt the responsibilities of caring for dogs early on in my childhood. I have grew up with dogs since I was a baby, and have always had a deep love for animals. I took this passion and love of animals and wanted to pursue it as a career. I studied animal management at college where I gained 3 years work experience in a boarding kennel. I then wanted to expand my knowledge further and continued my studies at Hartpury University in Canine Training and Performance, where I graduated with a 2.1 (upper second-class honours). Through this time I have gained a lot of experience on caring for a wide range of animals. Including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds and even pigs! I volunteered at a pig rescue in Ireland where I learnt a lot about these spectacular animals, who are a lot like dogs! I've learnt to deal with animals of all kinds of temperaments and how to pick up on body language to adapt my approaches quickly to ensure safety for all parties involved. This also helps to ensure that the animals are as stress free as can be. I do work full time however, I am typically available Mondays and Tuesdays, and most evenings. However this can change due to my work schedule. I have a fenced of garden to ensure security during their stay. I am also very knowledgeable about canine behaviours and training so am easily able to pick up on signs of distress when out on a walk to adapt and change to the environment
About: Hi, I’m Emily! 🐾 I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I had my own Border Collie from the age of 4 until I was 21, so I grew up caring for her and being responsible for her day to day needs, from feeding and walking her to giving her lots of love and attention. Since then, I’ve continued to look after friends and family members pets, and I really enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy and cared for. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be a big decision, so I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own. I’m happy to provide plenty of walks, attention, playtime and cuddles. I absolutely love dogs and would be delighted to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can fit walks and drop in visits easily around my routine. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible with timings where possible. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine and make sure they get the care, exercise and attention they need. 🐾 When your dog is in my care, you can expect lots of love, attention and plenty of tail wags! 🐾 I’ll take the time to get to know your dog and understand their routine, personality and individual needs. Whether we’re out enjoying a walk or spending time together during a drop in visit, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for. You can expect regular updates about how your dog is doing, and I’m always happy to send photos from our time together. My aim is for you to feel completely reassured knowing your dog is in safe and loving hands. ❤️
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for most of my life, with my grandmother who needed additional physical support for her beautiful Labrador, Bella, and my own two childhood cats growing up. I also had a yearly job looking after a Jack Russell called Harley for one or two weeks in the summer while the family went abroad. I am a very kind person, and I understand the importance of giving space to animals and reading their body language. I’m currently working part time in hospitality so I usually have plenty of time during the day and certainly in the mornings. Weekends do tend to be a bit tighter but I can do early morning care. I’m very central in Cheltenham with the ability to travel to homes, and if pets are okay with public transport, I like to do some walks up Cleeve Hill and Leckhampton Hill. I’m always happy to provide some company for the fur babies, with stop in visits to make sure they’re happy.
About: I've been around many different dogs my whole life. I grew up in a family where everyone has a dog, including myself. I love working with dogs and love helping out people with their pets. Family members, neighbors and friends have relied on me to look after, walk and check in on their beloved fur-babies. I am currently working part time, so I can work around you and your fur-baby's schedule! I am available most mornings and some evenings depending on my work shifts. I make sure to understand what you and your pup need from me when going on a walk. I will ensure that you dog is well supervised in public areas, especially if they are well trained off lead. Along with walks, I am happy to take them to a park and play ball with them, if you are comfortable with me doing so.
About: Hi there! We’re Matt and Daniela, lifelong dog lovers who truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Matt grew up with two dogs and has always enjoyed their company.

We know how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pets. That’s why we offer the same care, attention, and love we would give to our own. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles on the sofa, or keeping up with your dog’s routine, we make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Your dog will enjoy fresh air, plenty of playtime, and endless affection with us. We’d love to meet your furry friend and make them feel at home — because when they’re with us, they’re part of the family. Daniela mostly works from home, so your pet will have company throughout the day — plenty of time for cuddle breaks, playtime, and regular walks to keep them happy and relaxed. We have a fenced garden to make sure your pet is safe when playing outside. Please let us know if there is anything we need to know to make sure your dog is safe with us.
“Lisa has been completely brilliant, accommodating Her Ladyship and I very last minute. Marcie has really engaged well with Lisa and is always delighted to see her. Thank you Lisa, you’re a star.”
“Lily was great. Offered a meet and greet before which was really reassuring to us as first timers! She picked Macey up on time and Macey seemed to have had a great time from the pictures. Thanks Lily!”
“My dog is really anxious and can be reactive to other dogs without careful management. My dog warmed to Alex straight away. She really took the time to get to know him and his routines and had an amazingly successful walk! Thank you Alex!”

About: I'm someone who's always had a soft spot for dogs and animals. I absolutely love going on long walks in the park more than anything, and would love having some company. Whenever my friend head out of town, I happily step in to look after her two adorable cockerpoos. Those weekends are filled with cuddles, playtime, and all the care they could ask for. I'm most of my friends go to person to look after their pets when they go on holiday. :) I have a very flexible schedule and work from home most days, so I'm easily available anytime of day.

“Couldn’t ask for a better dog walker and sitter! Very responsive in communications before and after the visit, and sent through questions to help her get to know Poppy, her routine, preferences, and ongoing training needs. Her genuine love of dogs shines through and Poppy loved her immediately. Poppy is an exuberant and strong six month old puppy and Ruby handled her with ease. We look forward to having ruby look after Poppy again in the future.”

“Rachael was great with Chester. He absolutely loved being there. When he was picked up, he was very happy and tired and slept for hours when back at home I could tell had a fun time. I will definitely be using Rachael again. Highly recommended.”
“James took great care of Bailey and I couldn’t be happier with her stay. He sent me regular updates and photos throughout, which was really reassuring and gave me peace of mind. Bailey came home happy, relaxed and clearly well looked after. Communication was excellent, and the whole experience was smooth from drop-off to collection. I would definitely book with James again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Marcus and Mia were such a lovely couple - I really appreciated the daily updates, and I know Luna had a wonderful time because she came back absolutely pooped! I was also very grateful for their flexibility on timings as we were travelling quite a distance and had traffic to consider, etc. Overall a great experience. 🐾”
“Heather is a natural dog mummy! We were nervous leaving Briar with her as she had never been left with anyone other than family before. Heather and her family were relaxed and welcoming, their home was perfect for our little dog. We had multiple updates, photos and videos that were reassuring and made our experience so positive. I would highly recommend Heather as a sitter and would definitely leave my furry princess with her again in the future. Our little dog had a fabulous time.”
“Piper had a good 3 week stay with Daniel. We received updates throughout, which really put our minds at ease, and by all accounts she was very well looked after. When she was collected happy and content we’d definitely recommend Daniel and would happily book again!”
“Daniela was so lovely and warm, Luka was immediately at ease in her home and I was very happy leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and photos and Luka looked super relaxed and happy in them! He came home very reluctantly after clearly having a great time. Would not hesitate to recommend her :)”
“Sarah and her family provided the perfect environment in which to leave my dog Willow for a couple of days. Warm, welcoming and so friendly. I was only envious that we couldn’t stay ourselves! Highly recommended! Willow will be back soon :) James”
“Anna looked after my two dogs a Labrador and a collie x lab for 1 night. Anna was quick to reply to my initial message and arranged a meet and greet. While our dogs were with her she sent lots of pictures and updates and took them on lots of walks. They slept very well once they returned home. I can tell they were very well looked after. Anna was flexible with pick up and drop off and gave me complete peace of mind while my dogs were with her. I will definitely use Anna again in the future.”
“Halley and Eddie were great - from the moment I dropped Trevor off I knew he was going to be well-looked after for the weekend. Halley was brilliant at communicating from the initial enquiry and throughout Trevor's stay, sending updates with pictures too which were really appreciated. Trevor loved his walks over at Cox's Meadow and came home happy and tired. Would highly recommend to all. Thank you Halley and Eddie.”
“Humphrey loves staying with Claire. As always Claire kept me well informed about how he was getting on and sent lots of photos. Such a weight off my mind when leaving him. Would highly recommend.”
“Willow had a lovely time with Beth and Dan and their red fox lab Darcy. Willow is a very bouncy 5 month old working cocker spaniel and I was concerned she would be too annoying. However, it seems that Darcy and Willow had a lovely time playing and the photos and videos they sent showed willow looking quite calm at times which is rare! Beth and Dan have had lots of experience with many breeds of dogs and put my mind at ease when we visited for a meet and greet. I would happily have Willow stay with them again as I know she’d have a great time.”
“Our dog Bodie had the best 10 days with Kristen! We instantly felt at ease leaving our dog in her safe hands! You can honestly see how much love and attention she gave him! I knew she was the perfect sitter for our pup! We had regular updates on how our dog was getting on during his stay which again , made leaving him feel that much easier! Would 100% recommend and would absolutely use your services again! Thank you so much for having him!!”
“The perfect match for Ronnie. Kell took Ronnie for a long walk over the Malverns which he loved. Ronnie does have a lot of energy and Kell played ball with him in the garden to keep him occupied.”
“We picked Sarah because of her training and the fact she had experience with dogs through her studying, for 11 nights whilst myself and my partner went away. We had regular updates, felt like Big Boys needs were catered for and she responded quickly when/if we needed to speak. Sarah gave big boy the love and attention he needed, which enabled us to relax without any anxiety regarding our lads care.”
“Where do I even begin? Tilly is incredible. She looked after Maisie as if she were her own (I don't think Mais wanted to come home 🤣)! She sent gorgeous pictures, gave regular updates and I'll definitely book in with her again. Thank you SO much Tilly 💓”
About: I would be delighted to welcome your dog to stay in my quiet, safe home. My partner Seb and I have had Birdie, our rescue greyhound, for 2 years. Before adopting Birdie, I grew up with a dog and I've volunteered with dog-walking charities over the years and walked dogs and done catsitting for friends and relatives. When Birdie joined the household, I had to help her adjust to her new surroundings and life as a family pet. With time and patience, she's settled in wonderfully. Birdie loves the company of other hounds and I'm hoping to welcome some new visitors into our pack. Meet-and-greets / trial visits welcome. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions! I work from home so there is usually always someone around during the work day. (I am out on Tuesdays so not currently taking Tues bookings). I tend to walk first thing, before the working day, and again after work. There are playing fields, open countryside and neighbourhood footpaths in the local area, and I can tailor walks to your dog's preferences and needs. Enclosed back garden for toilet opportunities through the day. I have an enclosed back garden (6-foot fences). Caring for an ex-racing greyhound, I'm well versed in ensuring that the home environment is safe, secure and peaceful. Meet-and-greets / trial visits welcome, and if you have any specific questions/requirements please don't hesitate to get in touch.
“Very helpful introductory conversation with Annabel prior to booking, easy to find and a very warm welcome on arrival. The hand over was very straightforward with Hazel clearly taking to Annabel immediately and seeming to settle in very quickly. On collection it seemed clear that Hazel had really enjoyed her stay, I would have no hesitation in recommending Annabel or having Hazel lodge with her again.”
