“Would 100% recommend Catherine! Our Barney had a great time. Was sent updates & pics of how he was getting on, which was very reassuring. Lovely family setting was just what we wanted. Will definitely be coming back :)”
“Buddy stayed with Shelley and Dave and their family and he had a great time. Great communication throughout and lots of pictures and updates, can highly recommend!”
“Linda is just amazing. She kept us updated with lots of messages, photos & videos & it looked like she had a wonderful time. Linda is such a lovely lady, really gentle & loving and instantly gelled with Sneaky. It was amazing to go away knowing she was in such safe hands. Thank you so much Linda!”
“Donna is wonderful, Monty loves his stays here. It’s really like home from home, he is treated like one of the family & we feel safe in the knowledge that he is having his own little holiday when we go away. Thank you Donna & Simon for being so caring.”
“Fiona and family took amazing care of our pup Blue for our wedding weekend. They were so accommodating and helpful, it’s clear they have a lot of experience with dogs and their quirks! We received regular updates and photos which meant we could really relax knowing he was in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Blue back in with Fiona, I’m not sure he actually even wanted to come home when we collected him!”
About: I’ve grown up in a home filled with animals, dogs, cats, and fish, amongst many others, which has made me a true animal lover. I believe animals are pure souls who love us unconditionally, and as humans, we should always reciprocate that love. My name is Ishtaah, I’m a nature lover, and I would be honoured to care for your fur babies. Rest assured, they’ll be in safe, loving hands while you take on the world. I am a nurse (for humans), but I am comfortable with following medical instructions and administering medication as prescribed by a vet. I work from home so I am able to go for walks during the day and will ensure that your fur babies have lots of time to play and have a good time. I have pets of my own so rest assured that the whole place is puppy and cat proofed. We have baby gates around the house so we can follow your instructions (e.g. upstairs/no access etc).
“Humphrey was well looked after by Nathalie and her family and was well chilled out. He loves Tilly and they have great fun. Be very happy for Humphrey to stay again . Thanks Nathalie!”
“Rosemary took amazing care of our pup for a long weekend. She was really responsive when we made arrangements and kept in touch while we were away. Absolutely would book again!”
“Alex was outstanding in her care and attention to our Bailey. He clearly had a wonderful time and came home a contented boy! She kept in contact during his stay with pictures and we felt happy knowing he was safe and being looked after. We have no hesitation in recommending Alex and her 5 ⭐️ care.”
About: I've owned dogs since the age of 14 onwards from puppies till their senior years. Your dog will be treated and cared for, as if it was my own Ive retired and have plenty of free time, pretty much available 24/7 for your pet needs. My goal is to look after your pet on an individual basis, as a family member I have a fenced garden for quick comfort breaks but my prefered method is to walk as I live on a green and a stones throw away from Fairlands Lakes. I will also make available my online maps so you can be rest assured that your dog is being walked, this can be viewed live online. I am DBS cleared and have worked for many years alongside the Police as a contractor locksmith.
“Bodhi had a lovely time with Claire, He was very well looked after and was very happy with his time there. The children were fab with him also will not hesitate to book again! ☺️”
“I could not have left my puppy in safer hands. Heidi and her husband took such love and care with our puppy he had no issues being away from home for the first time. Heidi even managed to give him some play dates as well as some wonderful walks. She communicates promptly and put my mind at rest by sending us regular photos of his day. I would not hesitate to have Heidi care for our little one again. She really does know what she is doing and she gives your dog her undivided attention. Beau had a fantastic time with you Heidi. We can’t really thank you enough, no words can express our sincere gratitude. Thank you so very much! Sonia xx”
“Sarah is amazing. Cooper settled straight in and adores Sarah. Sarah was brilliant at sending updates. I felt very comfortable with leaving Cooper in the knowledge he was well looked after. He made new friends and will miss them (until the next time!) I would highly recommend Sarah.”

Sophie was absolutely amazing with Lucky! She accepted our booking last minute and was very flexible with the timing, even accommodating an early 6:30 am drop-off, which we truly appreciated. She took great care of Lucky, spent time playing with him, and handled his medications with complete ease and confidence. Her professionalism and genuine care really gave us peace of mind. We’re very happy with her service and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! 🐾💛
I couldn’t be happier with having Fiona as Roo’s dog sitter! She sent frequent photo updates and responded to messages very quickly, which was very reassuring. Even though I was in another country, I felt so at ease knowing he was with Fiona! Roo was clearly very loved and well cared for the entire time. Such a lovely & warm family — I’ll definitely be booking with Fiona again and would 100% recommend her to everyone 🤍🐾.
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Coco while we were on vacation. From the very start, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely loving Nandi is with dogs. Coco was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Nandi to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and amazing dog sitter. Coco can’t wait to stay with them again! Thank you so much Michelle and Neil
My little frenchie went to stay with Shelley and Dave for the first time a couple of weeks ago and was very well looked after, I received loads of photos and videos during her stay, she came back a very happy dog, 100% recommend and will definitely use them again, brilliant couple
Sarah and Leigh looked after our dog Chip for 1 night whilst we went away. They were absolutely brilliant! Sarah listened to all our requests and really took the time to understand Chips personality and little ways. I felt 100% reassured that he was in great hands. They sent messages and pictures to update us on what he'd been up to which was lovely. I'd have no hesitation in recommending this lovely couple to look after your fur baby. And Chip cannot wait to go back! Thank you Sarah and Leigh for taking such good care of our precious boy! ❤️
Dawn was amazing, so accommodating and you can tell she does this because she just loves animals. Dawn keeps you updated with pictures of your pet having a great time, my French bulldog did not want to come home from her stay🤣 just amazing. Will be using Dawn again in a couple of weeks and I am just so reassured that my dog is in the best hands. Couldn’t recommend more. Xx
Alison was lovely and did a wonderful job of looking after my Troye for the day. It was the first time I had left him with someone he doesn’t know and I felt he was in great hands and could relax on my day out. She kept me informed with pictures and updates so I knew how he was. Will definitely be using Alison again! X
Veronika took care of my 2 year old Frug for a week as a very last minute request. The care and attention given to him during his stay was outstanding, Veronika is so kind, attentive and tuned in to all of the needs of the animals in her care. It is very clear to see she has a deep love and appreciation for dogs, and hours of planning goes into their stay. He was given long walks, tried new foods, lots of cuddles and understanding and space plus fun. I received lovely pictures and videos throughout his stay, and she has continued to check on his wellbeing since. I cannot recommend Veronika highly enough. Not only is she an incredible dog boarder, she is a genuinely kind person too.
I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog, Milo, while I was away on holiday. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She looked after Milo with so much love and attention, keeping me updated with photos and messages the whole time. What really impressed me was that she even cooked food for him! It’s clear she went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, healthy, and comfortable in my absence. When I came back, Milo was calm, content, and clearly very well looked after. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind while they're away. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Milo!
Wonderful sitters, took care of my dog for almost 3 weeks so well. It was lovely to see her enjoying herself and going on regular walks, treated with so much love and care even when she was naughty haha. We truly appreciate your help. Thank you so much! Will definitely rebook in the future!
Unfortunately, just before our holiday, our dog had to have an operation. This meant that extra care was needed as Alfie had to wear a buster collar and go back to our vet to have his stitches out. Helen took all of this in her stride. She sent us an update every day and I was completely happy that he was in her safe hands. I would thoroughly recommend Helen to look after any dog. I will use her again without hesitation. Debbie & Alfie
Sara is absolutely amazing! She’s incredibly helpful, very communicative, and always responsive. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring and reliable hands. She goes above and beyond, and her professionalism and warmth really stand out. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and wonderful dog sitter!
Lara looked after our cocker spaniel Callie for a long weekend and did a great job! She sent lovely pictures of Callie out on walks as well as chilling at home and was happy to accommodate our high energy girl. Communication before the stay was great and we felt confident she was in good hands even though it was our first time using Rover as Callie normally stays with family or friends if we're away. We'd definitely be in touch with Lara again next time we need a dog sitter!
Lizzie boarded my Cockapoo Alfie and took such great care of him. My dog suffers from separation anxiety and Lizzie ensured that she didn’t leave him at home alone at all and took him out to the pub in the evening and to her family office in Stevenage on some days also. She also allowed Alfie to sleep in her bedroom at nighttime. I got lots of photos and updates whilst I was away. Couldn’t recommend Lizzie more!! She has a genuine love for dogs.
