8. Erica D.
“My dog loves it when Erica comes to see her, she gets so excited every time and thoroughly enjoys there walks together. I must say whilst Pepper is a good dog alot of people can be weary of her as she is a German shepherd, American bulldog cross so she is a big strong girl but this doesn't phase Erica who is more than happy to walk and play with her. She give her lots of fuss and love and has sent me updates when she leaves her to let me know everything is OK and she is settled and happy, she has even sent me pictures also to show Peppers happy face. Highly recommended Erica for your doggy needs”

14. Anne-Marie Y.

“Anne Marie and her family took such great care of Teddy that I think Teddy may have been slightly annoyed I came back for her! I recieved lots of updates while away which really eased any worries about leaving our beloved Teddy behind, she was living her best life and didn't seem to havea. care in the world. We will 100% be using Anne Marie for all our future dog sitting needs!”


15. Steven L.
“Steve’s knowledge of dogs is very clear to see, his ability to handle different temperaments, breeds and sizes is without doubt. I am given the gift of peace of mind, when I leave my beloved Beau with him & the Beautiful spirit….. With the experience of knowing she is in very capable & safe hands whilst in Steve’s care….. Highly recommend!!!”


16. Amelia W.

“Millie is an absolute godsend! So caring for my Greyhound and his foibles. I have peace of mind when I leave him with her as she is attentive and will contact me if she needs to know something. So much better than leaving him in a kennel.”


17. Mounira A.

“Mounira was amazing with our rescue dog Effie, who can sometimes be anxious but seemed to have the best weekend! Effie had a wonderful time filled with plenty of long walks and cuddles. Mounira supplied us with updates and lovely photos of their weekend together. We are chuffed to have found a wonderful dog sitter and we’re sure Effie would love to spend the weekend with Mounira again!”


18. Fern H.

“This was our first time leaving our 6 month pup and we were feeling very anxious, but Fern and her partner were incredible. From our first meet-and-great they were friendly, communicative and reassuring. They have a beautiful home well set up for dogs and Robin had a wonderful time. Every update he looked relaxed and well loved, and we’ve come home to a very happy boy! We’d highly recommend and we’ll definitely be booking Fern again for future trips. Thank you so much!”


19. Shona B.
“I have known Shona over 15 years. She is dependable, caring and excels at everything she puts her mind to. I have no doubt she will be a fantastic dog sitter. Shona has owned a few (very well cared for) dogs and I would entrust Shona with my dog without hesitation.”
