Mac’s stay with Emma was great. I think he had a nice holiday while I was away on my holiday. He settled back into his routine at home quickly and he is very happy so that shows he was well looked after by Emma and her family. Thanks Emma.

First time booking with Hannah we had a pre meet obviously nervous leaving our lab with someone we’d only meet through the booking site. When we dropped her off our lab tottered off had a wonder round greeted by all the family loved the attention she made herself at home and I felt at ease she’d be okay we had daily updates with photos and videos she looked happy on all them. We look forward to booking with Hannah again she certainly gave 5 star top class service. Thank you Hannah and family.

About: Me and my partner have had dogs all our lives. We have had two dobermans and one rescue beagle cross. We still have one Doberman and the beagle within our family. We have two children age 5 and 7 who have been brought up with our dogs and our very dog savvy. We are experienced with big breeds and also small. Our dogs are treated like family, two walks a day we live in the country so field walks mainly, they are allowed in the house and on the sofa and if they can sneak on the bed they will try haha! There is always someone at home generally as I work from home part time so never left long period of time. Both our dogs love other dogs they have always been well socialised. I work two days from home and the other days I am around at home and you dogs will never be left for long periods of time. I have a large fenced garden which is secure. The fence is 1m high as we back onto fields and is gated at the side.

Well what can I say…..Debbie & Gary are JUST FABULOUS! From the moment I met them for our initial meet up I had never felt so comfortable leaving my dog somewhere! Like many people, I didn’t want to leave him in a kennel, I wanted him to have that home from home experience 🐶 Bruce was taken on long walks daily, and they fit Bruce into their own lives, taking him on a ferry to the seaside, running him across the beach, long countryside walks, and much more! I was contacted at nearly everyday with an update and pictures of his adventures which was just so thoughtful 💗 My Veterinary practice was 1 hour away from their house, and when he unfortunately came down with an ear infection due to skin complaints they did not hesitate to contact me and take him there as that’s where he’s registered. Everything from the outset was taken into consideration (his routine, his behaviour traits, his feeding, his walking routine, his energy levels, his health and much more) Debbie and Gary, thank you SO SO much for treating my fur baby with such love and care like he was your own, I appreciate it so very much and there is no one else I’d rather leave my dog with 🐕

I can say a huge thank you to Annabel, who is an amazing dog sitter, even though my dog doesn’t like other dogs. She is caring and responsible at all times, and you can definitely leave your doggy with peace of mind.

Jenny is a lovely, warm person and her Pug, Honey, is an adorable dog. Together, they made a perfect team to look after our Lhasapoo, Lola. We received photos and updates on Lola during her stay and she clearly had a fun time and was well looked after. There was a secure, enclosed garden for her to play in with Honey. Jenny obviously has a lot of experience looking after dogs and we felt completely confident leaving Lola to her care. We have no hesitation in recommending Jenny to anyone who wants the best of care for their dog and we will be making another booking in the future. Thank you, Jenny and Honey, :)

Robert and his family looked after my Labrador at very short notice. He was friendly, flexible, great at replying and also brilliant at sending update photos and videos. My dog was well loved and walked twice in 24 hours. More than he gets at home! My boy came home happy 💙 I would 100% recommend and would use Robert again!

I almost don’t want to write a review so that I can keep Jill a secret! Jill is wonderful and an expert in her field. We felt totally relaxed leaving our dog for his one night sleepover. He had a great time and Jill made sure his time was just like being at home. We have struck gold with Jill and her lovely husband.

About: Animals have always been part of my life. Growing up, we always had dogs and other pets, and caring for animals has come naturally to me from a young age. For the last 10 years, our family shared our home with our much-loved French Bulldog, Woody. We recently lost him very suddenly, which left a huge hole in our hearts. While no dog could ever replace Woody, we're looking forward to opening our home to other dogs and giving them the same love, care and attention that he enjoyed. I've also regularly looked after friends' dogs, including a lovely Labrador who I cared for well into his senior years. This has given me experience with different personalities, routines and needs. My husband, Laszlo, is my additional caretaker and shares my love of dogs. Between us, there's usually someone at home to provide company, care and plenty of attention for our furry guests. What makes us different is that we only welcome dogs from one household at a time. Your dog will enjoy a relaxed family environment, a secure garden, walks to the nearby park, plenty of company and, if they're used to it, lots of sofa cuddles too! Dogs fit naturally into our family life. I work part-time weekdays (9am–1pm) and my husband works nights, so there's usually someone at home to keep your dog company. We live just a couple of minutes from the park, making it easy to fit walks, playtime and plenty of attention into every day. I care for every dog as if they were my own. Dogs staying with us become part of the family and are welcome to relax on the sofa, enjoy time in our secure garden, and join us for walks and play. I like to stick to each dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, sleeping arrangements and any special requirements. My goal is for owners to enjoy their time away knowing their dog is safe, happy and loved.

It was my first time using Cathy and her adorable golden retriever Stan. We initially met to see if Lana was comfortable there. When we returned for Lana to stay, she happily walked into Cathy’s driveway. Cathy sent me pupdates while Lana was with her. At no time was I concerned about Lana. In fact, my plans changed and Cathy kindly extended Lana’s stay for me at short notice which was so very kind and helpful of her. When I picked Lana up, although she was happy to see me, she was in no rush to leave. Lana, and in fact, myself, were treated like a member of the family. I know for a fact that Lana was not distressed as she licks her paw raw when distressed. Lana was with Cathy for nearly 24 hours and her paw was perfect. I will definitely be using Cathy (and Stan) again. X

Thanks for caring so well for the pair of pooches. They were very calm and settled on their return and so obviously enjoyed their stay with you. 😇 The texts to let me know how they were doing were much appreciated as Banner is a nervous boy but clearly felt safe and secure in your home. Our pets are part of our family and so it’s great to find a trusted place for them to stay, knowing they are looked after. We won’t hesitate to request your services again Evalina. The spoilt boys clearly enjoyed their short holiday with you 😎

Tom looked after Enola (our 18 month old flat coat retriever) and she had a great time. Tom was super flexible and kept us informed about our dog happiness with overwhelming us with information! We were able to kick back and enjoy a local festival (that did not allow dogs)!!

Leah was absolutely amazing with Axel — I couldn’t have asked for better care. She kept me updated every day with photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease, and it was clear he was happy, relaxed and being well looked after the whole time. The photos she took were incredible — honestly like professional shots! We love them so much we’re planning to frame them. Leah was also incredibly kind and thoughtful throughout. She really went above and beyond to make Axel feel comfortable and settled, and even helped us out on pick-up by bringing him to the station, which made things so much easier for us. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and Axel was treated with so much warmth and attention. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you again, Leah 🤍 xx
