“Dominique was such a great sitter for Frankie. He can be a nervous boy but she put us at ease and was really sweet and understanding. Her dog Doug is an absolute gent and really took in Frankie under his wing. Will definitely book again.”

“We have never used a dog sitter who wasn’t family before and so were nervous about finding a sitter. Emma made me feel so at ease from our first meeting and I felt more than happy to leave Maddie with her. I got lots of pictures to reassure me all was good during her stay. When I picked Maddie up, she was so happy and content after her stay with Emma and Nathan. I will definitely be booking again! ☺️”


“Michele was great in offering to meet Miley before we left her for the day, which made it a less stressful time for her and us. She didn’t want to leave when we collected her and seemed to have been thoroughly tired out by Michele which was great for us as we then had a happy, sleepy puppy for the rest of the day!”
