“This was the first time we left our dog River with someone thats not family, we were very nervous but Lucy put us at ease and gave us updates and photos everyday, as requested. Wouldn't hesitate to go back Lucy. Highly recommend.”

Zulu truly loves coming to yours and spending time with all the family especially the spending time with the kids and making you all smile alot.

Thank you so much for the service and the update with photos and videos of zulu first time trying the car and the beach. You guys are truly outstanding and love the fact that you guys get to enjoy spending time with Zulu and enjoy her just like i do ❤️”
“Frazer was amazing and so helpful; coming to the house to collect Mira and dropping her back too. Sent pics the whole way through and kept us informed. A great sitter, and I’d recommend him to anyone needing a caring and attentive doggy lover.”
“This is the 3rd time Sophie has looked after our fur baby and I could honestly never go elsewhere now. The love she gives our girl when she’s in her care is impeccable, she really does love her like her own. I really cannot recommend Sophie enough for everything she does and the care she provides”
About: Hello! My name is Hannah. I have loved dogs since my little Westie Frodo (only the size of a jacket potato!) entered my life when I was 3 years old. Since then, I admire every pup that walks past me. Luckily for me, I work for Brittany Ferries, so I get to sign in all the holiday ready pets! I have been looking after dogs since I was little, my dog Frodo was the light of my life, I wanted to do everything that would make him happy. I was also the first call when friends needed a place for their pet to stay, as they knew I would put all my attention on looking after their pup (I also love taking photos, so they enjoyed recieving updates!). Currently I am regularly looking after a little darling dog named Snowy and also house sitting for friends with two new tiny kittens! Last year I did a Pet First Aid course. I currently work part time (every Sunday and 1 Tuesday a month), and when not working I am making art at home so regular pee breaks remind me to get up and take care of myself too! I live in a large house/land with a few other families. This includes 2 cats, 2 dogs and small children. In the house, which I have a room in and the pet will stay, we have two cats roaming around. One loves cuddles (even from dogs!) and the other is a grump, but if given space he doesn't mind being around a dog. A few steps from the house there is a big field, great to throw a ball and to do a quick morning pee before I have time to make a coffee! Just off of the land, it's a 10 minute walk through fields to the moors! So great walks are awaiting. As for home visits, my goal is to make sure the pet has some quality play/cuddle time and a wee and snack, so they can tire out then nap until you return home!
“Harriet really helped us out of a tight jam super last minute. We’d had a mix up with our normal kennel just 2 days before we were due to go on holiday for a week and she responded to our plea immediately. The dogs loved their time with her, she gave us regular updates and photos and it was clear how much care she took of our two dogs whilst they were with her. Nice long walks, beaches, cuddles they had a blast. She was even kind enough to collect and drop them off, and she shampooed them before returning. Couldn’t have asked for more! Highly recommend! Would happily use Harriet’s services again xx”
“Victoria looked after our dog Otto this weekend. He has stayed with her once before and always has the best time! It's so nice for us to see Otto excited to see Victoria again and for us to be able to relax knowing that he is being well looked after.”
“Lisa was incredible with Norman, taking him on lots of exciting new walks/parks and keeping us updated regularly with photos! We know Norman had an amazing time, and we had a lovely weekend away fully trusting he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend, thank you again!!”
“Highly recommend Lucy. Lovely family home. My very excitable dog was the most chilled out I've seen her on collection. Well looked after. Regular updates. Will use again. Thanks so much lucy.”
About: I've grown up around dogs, so having muddy paws around the house feels pretty normal to me. My grandad was a well respected vet, which meant I was lucky enough to meet dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including plenty of rescue dogs! I have just moved out of my parents house which has meant I no longer have my two beloved border terriers to keep me on my toes! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be left counting down the hours until you’re back. They’ll have plenty of company, lunch time walks and lots of cuddles of course! I work from home full time, so I’m lucky to have plenty of time during the day to look after your furry friend and keep them company! My partner also has a flexible job, which means we would happily adapt to their routine and make sure they are well looked after. I’m active and love spending time outdoors, so getting out for walks is something I really enjoy! Whether they’re up for a longer walk or just a good explore of the local area, I’d love to have them join me and become part of my day. We have a fenced garden with lots of room for your dog to run around and enjoy some outdoor time! There are plenty of walking spaces nearby, including a forest 5 minutes walk away, so there are lots of options for longer walks and shorter strolls. We’re not a strict household, if your dog is allowed on the sofa at home, they’ll be more than welcome to relax on ours too! We’ll always try to keep them to their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable while they’re with us.
“Petrina did a lovely job of taking care of Biscuit for 5 days. It was our first time leaving her since she joined our family and Petrina helped us feel comfortable and at ease with check-ins and updates throughout. Will definitely book with Petrina again for our next holiday away! Thank you so much! xx”
“We were so grateful to find Tracie when we needed local help while in Cornwall for work. Our dog clearly had a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated all the updates throughout. It was clear that our dog enjoyed all the fun and experiences she had during her stay. River (Tracie's dog) is such a lovely dog and we loved seeing them play and it was so nice for our dog to have a furry companion for a few days. Tracie’s communication was super clear, and we felt completely at ease knowing Annie was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Tracie! x”
About: I love spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. You can count on me to provide safe, attentive, and friendly care. I have done multiple boardings and grew up with two dogs. My girlfriend works full time at home. I like to walk the dogs before and after work, depending on requirements. Weekends I like a long hike on the moors. We have a fenced garden with a paddling pool. Quick access to the moors or the sea. We can offer a dog bed if required.
“Alison is a brilliant sitter. It was the first time our small dog has been left with anyone but family, so we were very apprehensive, but straight from the off Alison but our minds at rest, she messaged, took videos & pictures throughout the day, reassuring us that our dog had settled in well. When I went to collect her she seemed very happy & content. Thank you Alison for providing a lovely second home for our dog, we will certainly be using Alison on a regular basic.”
About: I have had dogs throughout my life and have always loved being around them. Over the years, I have gained plenty of experience caring for dogs, including providing daycare and dog-sitting services for a variety of breeds, ages, and sizes. I am confident looking after dogs with different personalities and needs, and I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I enjoy taking dogs on regular walks in the park near my home, as well as longer walks through the surrounding countryside, giving them the opportunity to explore and stay active. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having other dogs around for company. He is very sociable, playful, and enjoys making new friends, which helps create a welcoming and comfortable environment for visiting dogs. I am passionate about providing a safe, caring, and enjoyable experience for every dog I look after, treating them as if they were my own. I am available throughout weekends and have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your dog. We are usually at home or out enjoying adventures with our own dog, Norman, so any visiting dogs will have lots of company, attention, and opportunities for exercise. Whether it’s relaxing at home, enjoying playtime, or exploring the outdoors on walks, I will make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I love being able to give dogs the time, care, and companionship they need while their owners are away. We have a spacious three-bedroom house with plenty of room for dogs to feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay. Dogs are welcome throughout the house, including on the furniture and even in the bed, so they can enjoy all the home comforts and feel part of the family. We also have a secure garden where dogs can safely play, relax, and enjoy some outdoor time. Our own dog, Norman, is very friendly and loves having other dogs around. He enjoys making new friends and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for any visiting dogs. Our home is a safe, friendly, and dog-loving space where your dog can settle in, enjoy plenty of attention, and feel right at home.
“Hannah & Jordan took such wonderful care of Woody, he has had a brilliant time with multiple walks per day in different locations, swims, brushes and cozy sofa time and cuddles. We felt really bad that we couldn't bring Woody away with us and were nervous leaving him but Hannah & Jordan sent us lots of photos and messages each day. They were also flexible when we were delayed by an hour. It feels as though Woody has had a holiday and has been so well cared for! We would definitely recommend Hannah & Jordan.”
“Tracey was wonderful from start to finish. She took great care of Maddie, got her really well settled and sent me pics and videos to keep me updated. I’m so pleased to have found her”
“Highly recommend them always get back to you quickly for the app with updates and pictures what they have been up to very professional our lovely Dog really enjoyed his time away. We will definitely be using her again to look after him. It was lovely getting the update where we’re away in the pictures knowing he’s all happy and safe please don’t hesitate on using her for your pet needs. Really recommend it.”
“We left our two 8 month pups with Nicola and Jake and we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to look after our pups. We had regular updates which were really reassuring! They went the extra miles for our boys and made the experience for our pups as best as possible for their first stay away. If we ever need a dog sitter again we would 100% want to use them x”
“Charlotte and her husband were amazing with my boy Alan! I couldn’t have asked for better care for him. I was really nervous leaving him for a week but the photos and messages made me feel really at ease. I could tell when I picked him up that he had been cared for well. I would leave 6 stars if possible!”

“Sophie was fantastic, we came home to two very happy and well looked after cats. Sophie spent the full time with the cats, playing with them and making sure they had access to food, plenty of water and clean litter. We really appreciated the visit before so Sophie could meet the cats, get to know them and where everything is. Sophie was really flexible to accommodate our request and sent us lots of lovely photos and updates so we were able to properly relax whilst we were away.”

About: I’ve had cats all my life, and caring for them has always been a central part of who I am. Over the years, this lifelong experience has grown into a genuine passion not only for cats but for animals of all kinds. I understand how much they enrich our lives and how important it is to provide them with attentive, compassionate care. My experience spans all stages of a cat’s life, from raising young kittens to supporting senior cats with more complex needs. I’m comfortable handling the unique challenges that come with each stage, whether that’s socialising and nurturing kittens or providing patience and comfort to older cats. I’ve cared for both indoor and outdoor cats and am familiar with the differences in their routines, safety considerations, and enrichment needs. I also have a solid understanding of dietary requirements, from standard feeding routines to more specific nutritional needs, as well as basic medical care, including administering medication and recognising when a cat may need veterinary attention. Above all, I aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where every cat feels comfortable and well cared for.
“Millie was incredible, Teddy and Nala were cared for brilliantly, Millie sent us daily updates with photos. Nala hurt her leg and Millie straightaway contacted us and updated us when she needed to visit the vets. It was so reassuring the way Millie handled the situation, knowing Nala was being cared for. We will definitely be booking Millie again when we go away.”
About: I've grown up with a variety of pets my whole life and have always been an immense animal lover! Because of this, I am often relied on by friends and family to look after their fur-babies whilst they are away and also have lots of experience house-sitting. I'm at my happiest when I'm around dogs and animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I own my own home so I'm therefore very responsible and respectful of whoever's home I'm staying in. I will be sure to follow your instructions regarding pet care and certain things around the house. I currently work full-time Monday to Friday so I would be available to look after your pup(s) from late afternoon on Friday until Sunday evening (or early Monday morning). On some occasions if need be, it may be possible for me to work remotely from your home (if WiFi permits and dependant on your facilities but I would need plenty of notice for this).

I would also be available to pop in for checks and short walks during weekday evenings as well. I have a handsome miniature dachshund who keeps me company while I work from home during the week. I have a fenced and secure garden and have a car seat cover that covers the entire back seat meaning we can go further afield for walks as where we live has lots to offer on our doorstep for a variety of walks and terrain. We tend to go on two walks a day and perhaps a longer, more adventurous one on the weekends.

About: I’ve had pets in my family home as long as I can remember, including three dogs, two cats, two tortoises, fish and hamsters over the years. I’ve always loved being around and looking after animals, especially dogs. I grew up with an English Springer spaniel and a Dandie Dinmont terrier - two dogs that were polar opposites but both affectionate and loyal - what more can you ask for? After they both passed away last year, my mum brought a Maltese poodle puppy called Lola into the family home and it’s reminded me of how playful and loving pets are. In terms of experience, I’ve dog-sat and walked my mates Australian Labradoodle and previously looked after neighbours cats while they’ve been away. If you’re interested, please feel free to reach out - Thanks. I work full-time for a multinational professional services company however my job is fully remote and employees are entrusted to work flexible hours to manage their own work schedules. I’d love the extra bit of company when working from home and the opportunity to get out on walks during the day. I live in a dog- friendly duplex flat with open plan living and kitchen and a small-medium sized balcony. I understand this may be off putting but I’m a 3 minute walk from Lovell Park, and only a 10 minute walk from the canal, which I often run along and is very popular with dog walkers. I have a very comfortable sofa and plenty open floor space to roam around

I live in a house with a large, secure garden so lots of space for your dog to run freely. I am home a lot of the time so they would hardly be left on their own for long periods of time. I have been dog sitting for almost 7 years now and have lots of experience looking after a variety of dog breeds and ages. I work from home so can be very flexible around your schedule and adapt to your pets requirements where needed. I have a Cavalier King Charles called Ruby who would love a play date or a walking buddy! Ruby is brilliant with children and a registered therapy dog. I have 7 years of experience caring for a variety of animals, so you can trust me to provide the highest standard of care to your pet. I'm passionate about animals and I'll do everything I can to ensure that they're happy and well looked after whilst in my care.

About: When I was younger we had guinea pigs (6 over the years). I am an auntie to 2 gorgeous bunnies, who I regularly take care of. Also a cousin of 2 very energetic dogs who have various sleepovers with me and lots of walks! Frequently take care of our neighbour's cats. I am currently a remote worker so have flexibility on location. I am out walking most mornings and evenings and would be great to have a little friend to accompany me! My house has a big back garden which is fenced off and enough space downstairs to accommodate furry guests. I am also situated next to the woods, great for walking.
“Thanks for entertaining Charlie. I’m glad that he was able to join in for the online meeting! We’ll certainly look for some other dates (hopefully when not in a heat wave), as he’d love chasing his ball around Crapstone.”
“Otis had his first daycare visit with Lisa yesterday. We had previously met for a meet and greet where Otis met Lisa's dog Angus. Otis was happy to be left with Lisa and had a great time. He was a very tired boy last night and was dreaming lots so it shows he had good fun. We felt very comfortable leaving our boy with Lisa and didn't worry once, we had regular updates and photos which was also reassuring. We are using Lisa again later in the year for a long weekend and feel happy knowing he is in safe hands.”
“Scout had the best day staying with Sophie. She played all day with Spencer. Sophie is a fantastic host, reliable, efficient and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend her. She sent brilliant photos and video of Scouts stay.”

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re happy, loved, and cared for. I love walking and I love animals so the both work great together - dogs are wonderful and I love them so much and cats , actually most animals I have 3 cats , which are well cared for - I have lots of space in my house and a garden which is great for dogs
“It was the first time I left my 14 week puppy with someone else and Lucy couldn't do more to welcome her in. She sent regular photos updates and I had a very happy puppy to take home. Thank you to both Lucy and her family for taking great care of Josie!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We left our two dogs for part of the day while we attended our daughter’s university graduation, and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for. I was particularly worried beforehand because one of our dogs can be quite anxious and barky in new situations. I needn’t have worried at all. From the moment we arrived, both dogs settled straight away, which immediately put us at ease. She was warm, friendly and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. She kept us updated with lovely photos throughout the day, which was so reassuring and allowed us to fully enjoy the celebrations without worrying. When we collected them, both dogs were happy, relaxed and incredibly chilled, which says everything about the care and attention they received. They had obviously felt safe, comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed their time with her. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy dog daycare. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dogs and helping make our daughter’s graduation day even more special.”
“Sarah was absolutely lovely with Pepper. She welcomed her into such a calm, warm and friendly environment, and Pepper settled in really well and clearly had a great time. Pepper came home happy and relaxed, and we’d happily leave her with Sarah again. Thank you so much!”
“As we live in a quiet village it was lovely to leave Frank for dog-sitting in such a rural location. Mark and Fee obviously love dogs and were very welcoming. Frank was very happy when we picked him up and obviously enjoyed his long walk. Would definitely have no worries leaving Frank for a longer stay (if they would have him back!)”
“Absolutely bloody marvelous. Amazing communication throughout the process, and kept our puppy busy and having loads of fun throughout the whole day. Photos of his day were of really high quality, and it was possible to see he was very much enjoying himself throughout. 10,000% will use again!”
“Jess and Joel took excellent care of Otto. They were super kind, caring and sent me regular updates about how Otto was doing. It is it was Ottos first experience of going to a loving home for a few days and I can highly recommend Jess and Joel. Thank you.”
“Alison provides a calm, safe environment. Her house is located conveniently with two large parks. Alison looked after our boys for the very first time today, and we were very pleased with how she helped them make themselves at home and occupied them. She is trustworthy and a good communicator. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Alison to look after our boys again. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog care provider. Thank you, Alison!”
About: I’ve taken care of friend’s dogs for the last 5 years. Our amazing boxer dog died in March and we really miss having a dog around the house- so would be honoured to look after yours.

About: I've always had a real love for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them, whether its heading out for long walks, exploring new routes, or sitting relaxing together at home. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness and plenty of attention, I will always make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved and safe while in my care.

About: I’m friendly and responsible and I absolutely loves dogs and being active. I work from home most days so can be with your dog all day. Your pets will be given all the attention and/or space they need. I have experience with dogs from volunteering with the cinnamon trust, which involved walking dogs for the elderly, looking after my family’s pets and dogs, looking after friend’s dogs and helping to care for my boyfriends’ 2 ShihTzus. I absolutely love dogs but do not have one of my own so your dog will be my sole focus :) I live right on moors so your dog can run as much as they want and go and explore round the huge woodlands, open areas and fields. I am happy to keep dogs on a lead or have them off lead - what ever you would rather. I love to hike and be outside so your dog will be well exercised but I also love to just chill on the sofa so I can accommodate all types of activity levels. I will listen to all of your instructions about your beloved friend so they will be very well looked after!! Thank you so much for choosing to entrust me with your pet :) I am very active so taking a dog out for regular walks is no problem as it fits in with my normal routine. I have my own car so we can venture out and explore new places. I will give the dog their own space if they need it or I will be with them constantly depending on their personality. They will be the sole pets in my home so there is no issues of keeping anyone separate. In an owners home I will listen and respect all the instructions given to me and follow them to a t!

About: As an avid animal lover with a diverse range of caregiving experience, I've had the privilege of caring for creatures big and small, from tiny rodents to majestic horses. Recognizing that your pets are more than just animals—they're cherished members of your family—I prioritize building a deep level of trust. I stand out as a sitter due to my commitment to open and transparent communication. I understand that entrusting someone with the care of your fur babies requires confidence and reassurance. I make it a priority to keep you informed about your pets' well-being, routines, and any special needs they may have. In addition to my passion for general pet care, I bring specific skills to the table, such as the ability to train puppies and provide dedicated senior care. Whether it's guiding a young pup through essential training or offering gentle support and attention to your older pets, I am equipped to meet a variety of needs. Your peace of mind is my utmost priority, and I am dedicated to making the entire process as seamless as possible for you. I approach pet sitting not just as a responsibility but as an opportunity to create a positive and enjoyable experience for both you and your beloved animals. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into the fabric of my daily and weekly routine, as I am currently dedicating 100% of my time to being at home. My life revolves around the well-being of my beloved fur babies, and I take pride in providing them with the utmost care and attention. To further underscore my commitment to pet care, I have undertaken first aid courses and earned a diploma in animal care. These qualifications not only enhance my confidence but also ensure that I am well-prepared to handle any situation that may arise, prioritizing the safety and health of your pets. Being at home full-time allows me to maintain a consistent and attentive presence for your animals. From regular dog walks to creating a nurturing environment, I am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of each pet under my care. In essence, pet care isn't just a task for me; it's a passion and a priority that I integrate seamlessly into my daily life. Your fur babies will receive the attention, love, and expertise they deserve, creating a comfortable and enjoyable experience for them in my care. In caring for pets, I prioritize creating a comfortable and secure environment tailored to their needs, whether it's in my home or the pet owner's residence. If preferred, I have two crates available, ensuring a cozy and familiar space for those who feel more secure in enclosed areas. However, I'm equally delighted to provide a 'roam free' experience within my home, allowing pets to explore and feel at ease. To accommodate various comfort levels, especially for pets who may not be confident with stairs, I've installed a gate to ensure their safety. Additionally, my fenced-in garden, featuring a mix of concrete and green spaces, offers a secure outdoor area for play and relaxation. For those who enjoy longer walks and more open spaces, there are local fields nearby where we can enjoy outdoor activities and exercise. My approach is flexible, adapting to the unique preferences and needs of each pet. Whether it's creating a secure, designated space or allowing them to explore freely, my goal is to provide a nurturing and enjoyable environment for pets under my care.
“So happy with the dog walking service provided by Alex. He has been very flexible when it comes to availability at short notice and arrival times etc. We have a large, powerful husky but that didn’t phase him at all. He is very friendly and reassuring and our dog seemed to really enjoy going out for walks with him. He would send me a message when he was on his way to us and send photos of her, while they were out. I will definitely be booking him in the future and would certainly recommend him to others 🙂 Thanks Alex 👍”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have always had dogs in my life. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels and routines. While I’m new to dog walking professionally, I’m used to daily walks, feeding routines, basic training and making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need. I understand how important it is for owners to know their dogs are safe and well cared for. I offer one-on-one dog walks, taking dogs on local countryside routes. Walks are 30–60 minutes, giving each dog safe, supervised exercise and attention. I schedule multiple walks per day and can accommodate several dogs. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I currently care for three dogs, so I understand different personalities and routines. I will provide safe walks and follow any instructions from the owner to keep their pets happy and secure.
About: I've grown up with a variety of pets my whole life and have always been an immense animal lover! Because of this, I am often relied on by friends and family to look after their fur-babies whilst they are away and also have lots of experience house-sitting. I'm at my happiest when I'm around dogs and animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I own my own home so I'm therefore very responsible and respectful of whoever's home I'm staying in. I will be sure to follow your instructions regarding pet care and certain things around the house. I currently work full-time Monday to Friday so I would be available to look after your pup(s) from late afternoon on Friday until Sunday evening (or early Monday morning). On some occasions if need be, it may be possible for me to work remotely from your home (if WiFi permits and dependant on your facilities but I would need plenty of notice for this). Over the weekend I will be on hand every couple of hours to give your fur-babies my undivided attention, walkies and play time! I would also be available to pop in for checks and short walks during weekday evenings as well. I have a handsome miniature dachshund who keeps me company while I work from home during the week. I have a fenced and secure garden and have a car seat cover that covers the entire back seat meaning we can go further afield for walks as where we live has lots to offer on our doorstep for a variety of walks and terrain. We tend to go on two walks a day and perhaps a longer, more adventurous one on the weekends.

You guys are truly outstanding and love the fact that you guys get to enjoy spending time with Zulu and enjoy her just like i do ❤️”
“Frazer was amazing and so helpful; coming to the house to collect Mira and dropping her back too. Sent pics the whole way through and kept us informed. A great sitter, and I’d recommend him to anyone needing a caring and attentive doggy lover.”
“This is the 3rd time Sophie has looked after our fur baby and I could honestly never go elsewhere now. The love she gives our girl when she’s in her care is impeccable, she really does love her like her own. I really cannot recommend Sophie enough for everything she does and the care she provides”
“Victoria looked after our dog Otto this weekend. He has stayed with her once before and always has the best time! It's so nice for us to see Otto excited to see Victoria again and for us to be able to relax knowing that he is being well looked after.”
About: I've grown up around dogs, so having muddy paws around the house feels pretty normal to me. My grandad was a well respected vet, which meant I was lucky enough to meet dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including plenty of rescue dogs! I have just moved out of my parents house which has meant I no longer have my two beloved border terriers to keep me on my toes! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be left counting down the hours until you’re back. They’ll have plenty of company, lunch time walks and lots of cuddles of course! I work from home full time, so I’m lucky to have plenty of time during the day to look after your furry friend and keep them company! My partner also has a flexible job, which means we would happily adapt to their routine and make sure they are well looked after. I’m active and love spending time outdoors, so getting out for walks is something I really enjoy! Whether they’re up for a longer walk or just a good explore of the local area, I’d love to have them join me and become part of my day. We have a fenced garden with lots of room for your dog to run around and enjoy some outdoor time! There are plenty of walking spaces nearby, including a forest 5 minutes walk away, so there are lots of options for longer walks and shorter strolls. We’re not a strict household, if your dog is allowed on the sofa at home, they’ll be more than welcome to relax on ours too! We’ll always try to keep them to their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable while they’re with us.
“We were so grateful to find Tracie when we needed local help while in Cornwall for work. Our dog clearly had a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated all the updates throughout. It was clear that our dog enjoyed all the fun and experiences she had during her stay. River (Tracie's dog) is such a lovely dog and we loved seeing them play and it was so nice for our dog to have a furry companion for a few days. Tracie’s communication was super clear, and we felt completely at ease knowing Annie was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Tracie! x”
About: I love spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. You can count on me to provide safe, attentive, and friendly care. I have done multiple boardings and grew up with two dogs. My girlfriend works full time at home. I like to walk the dogs before and after work, depending on requirements. Weekends I like a long hike on the moors. We have a fenced garden with a paddling pool. Quick access to the moors or the sea. We can offer a dog bed if required.
“Alison is a brilliant sitter. It was the first time our small dog has been left with anyone but family, so we were very apprehensive, but straight from the off Alison but our minds at rest, she messaged, took videos & pictures throughout the day, reassuring us that our dog had settled in well. When I went to collect her she seemed very happy & content. Thank you Alison for providing a lovely second home for our dog, we will certainly be using Alison on a regular basic.”
About: I have had dogs throughout my life and have always loved being around them. Over the years, I have gained plenty of experience caring for dogs, including providing daycare and dog-sitting services for a variety of breeds, ages, and sizes. I am confident looking after dogs with different personalities and needs, and I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I enjoy taking dogs on regular walks in the park near my home, as well as longer walks through the surrounding countryside, giving them the opportunity to explore and stay active. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having other dogs around for company. He is very sociable, playful, and enjoys making new friends, which helps create a welcoming and comfortable environment for visiting dogs. I am passionate about providing a safe, caring, and enjoyable experience for every dog I look after, treating them as if they were my own. I am available throughout weekends and have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your dog. We are usually at home or out enjoying adventures with our own dog, Norman, so any visiting dogs will have lots of company, attention, and opportunities for exercise. Whether it’s relaxing at home, enjoying playtime, or exploring the outdoors on walks, I will make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I love being able to give dogs the time, care, and companionship they need while their owners are away. We have a spacious three-bedroom house with plenty of room for dogs to feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay. Dogs are welcome throughout the house, including on the furniture and even in the bed, so they can enjoy all the home comforts and feel part of the family. We also have a secure garden where dogs can safely play, relax, and enjoy some outdoor time. Our own dog, Norman, is very friendly and loves having other dogs around. He enjoys making new friends and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for any visiting dogs. Our home is a safe, friendly, and dog-loving space where your dog can settle in, enjoy plenty of attention, and feel right at home.
“Hannah & Jordan took such wonderful care of Woody, he has had a brilliant time with multiple walks per day in different locations, swims, brushes and cozy sofa time and cuddles. We felt really bad that we couldn't bring Woody away with us and were nervous leaving him but Hannah & Jordan sent us lots of photos and messages each day. They were also flexible when we were delayed by an hour. It feels as though Woody has had a holiday and has been so well cared for! We would definitely recommend Hannah & Jordan.”
“Tracey was wonderful from start to finish. She took great care of Maddie, got her really well settled and sent me pics and videos to keep me updated. I’m so pleased to have found her”
“Highly recommend them always get back to you quickly for the app with updates and pictures what they have been up to very professional our lovely Dog really enjoyed his time away. We will definitely be using her again to look after him. It was lovely getting the update where we’re away in the pictures knowing he’s all happy and safe please don’t hesitate on using her for your pet needs. Really recommend it.”
“We left our two 8 month pups with Nicola and Jake and we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to look after our pups. We had regular updates which were really reassuring! They went the extra miles for our boys and made the experience for our pups as best as possible for their first stay away. If we ever need a dog sitter again we would 100% want to use them x”
“Charlotte and her husband were amazing with my boy Alan! I couldn’t have asked for better care for him. I was really nervous leaving him for a week but the photos and messages made me feel really at ease. I could tell when I picked him up that he had been cared for well. I would leave 6 stars if possible!”
“A wonderful dog sitter and I couldn’t recommend her more! Anindita took excellent care of my dog and her regular updates and photos of how much fun he was having put my mind completely at ease.”
“Could not have asked for a better person to look after our dog whilst we attended a wedding in the local area. Nick gave updates throughout the day. Would highly recommend to anyone needing to board their dog.”
“A home from home. Dale and Scott looked after Fergus like he was their own. They gave Fergus lots of love, cuddles and belly rubs. Their outside space is safe and secure and location is perfect for long safe walks off lead. We were sent regular photo updates of Fergus’s sleepover and fun he was having out and about.”
“Stacey was such an amazing sitter! Arya was so happy when we picked her up. Stacey gave us lots of updates and pictures, gave Arya toys and plenty of fun walks. We felt so safe and reassured that Arya was in a loving family home. I would highly recommend Stacey and her family again! 🐾”
