1. Ela W.

“Thank you so much Ella for looking after Florence so well, you really cared for her in her latter years and she looks great, I appreciate your photos and messages while I was away, having an older pet and having to leave them is hard, but you have made this process very comfortable for both of us. Thank you Gary”


2. Stacey H.

“Bodhi really enjoyed his time with Stacey. Lots of photos were sent during his stay which definitely put my mind at ease! He was knackered when he came back and couldn’t keep his eyes open.”




3. Barbara S.
“I've known Barbara for a couple of decades and whenever she comes to see me, she's always with her Saba and whenever I go to see her, Saba and her two cats (Bounty and Tiggy) always come and join us to socialise. There is always a warm and safe vibe with Barbara and her animals, and I'm very certain that she will be a great sitter because she always puts them first and has always been natural with animals. Any and all animals I've seen her come across have taken a quick liking to her.”


4. Rhys F.

“We are extremely pleased that we found Rhys on Rover. Rhys was very accommodating, helpful and friendly. Rhys sent us photos throughout our Cocker’s stay, and it was clear that our boy felt at home with him. He was well and truly worn out when we picked him up from all the wonderful walks Rhys took him on. We are very grateful to Rhys and certainly be using him again in the future.”


5. Hayley F.

“Roxy had a fantastic stay with Hayley and was so well looked after. We are so grateful to have found someone as trustworthy as Hayley so we could enjoy our break away without worrying if she was being properly looked after, especially as Roxy is an insulin dependant diabetic with limited mobility. Forever grateful.”

8. Susan C.

“My dog Flymo stayed with Susie for three nights. It was the first time he had ever stayed with anyone other than a friend, who was unable to have him. She looked after him really well and sent me regular updates and photos. He was very relaxed and happy when I picked him up. I could not have asked for a better dog sitter and I can highly recommend her.”


9. Jacqui M.

“Our boys had the most wonderful time with Jacqui. Their first stay and we received lots of pictures and videos of them enjoying themselves. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you so much”


10. Kayley F.
“I would highly recommend Kayley to look after your pets & there needs, she has grown up with all kinds of animals from rats.. to dogs! She is the most kind, caring individual that would do anything for anyone.. especially any animal. I’d trust Kayley with my life knowing full well I could trust her to take special care of my animals too. You’ll always see her out on a walk enjoying the sunshine , she loves an adventure. Also stopping every 10 minutes to stroke every dog in sight. Theres no challenge too big or small Kayley isnt willing to put her 100% into, including falling in love with your pet and giving them all the loving in the world.”


11. Sophie R.

“For first time doggy owners, and this being the first time we've had someone look after our puppy, Sophie was amazing! She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos so we knew Tenno was safe and happy, and it was so nice for Tenno to have Beau to play with. It looked like he had a lot of fun, and will definitely want to go back!”

About: Love walkies, and company that dogs bring. I have no pets atm if my own. I have owned quite a few cats and 4 dogs of my own. I also have looked after friends dogs at times and boarded one for 5 weeks due to my friends house move. I do work and am home a few nights and evenings during week where I can walk, board or sit with dogs. I also am free at weekends and love beach walks and country walks I have a massive garden and live in my own house. Pets are free to come and chill and cuddle on sofa and bed with me.


13. Jeanette B.

“Harley has had the best time with Jeanette while we were on holiday, she treated him as her own. From the moment we arrived at Jeanette’s house Harley ran inside the and found a ball to play with. While on holiday we had photos and updates, it was so nice to see how much fun Harley was having. Thank you so much for looking after Harley so well. We have already re-booked for a night in June and will 100% be wanting to book again in the future ☺️”




14. Areta I.
“Areta was great! First off I needed a doggy sitter for a weekend and I wasn’t able to do a meet and greet. This was fine with Areta and was an absolute god send! Then I booked the wrong dates and Areta kindly changed to the weekend I needed at short notice ? such a star! Elmo was completely adored and made to feel welcome, he loves socialising with people and wins over they’re hearts. I felt totally at peace and content leaving my baby with Areta for the weekend, got picture updates and messages about how he was doing and he was having such a lovely time. He was so looked after, and Areta is so lovely and takes great care of the dogs in her care, like they’re her own. As I will be making the move to Devon soon, Areta will be first on list for Elmos holidays! Thank you so much ☺️”

“Mark was absolutely fantastic in looking after our pug BB. We had a meet and greet in which Mark instantly formed a bond with BB. BB stayed with Mark for 5 days in which BB had such a great time! Mark kept us updated about BB all the time. We had excellent communications from Mark.Would definitely book again and again. Thank you, Mark!”


17. Callum G.

“Callum helped us out last minute. He was friendly and responsive when first making enquiries and amenable throughout. He provided us updates and even sent a pic for us whilst we're away for the two days, of our Fox Terrier enjoying some belly rubs. She didn't want to leave when we collected her so we knew she was happy with her stay and that she was well looked after. Recommend Callum. Thumbs up!”


18. Chloe E.

“Ted had a lovely time with Chloe, who took great care of Ted, feeds, grooming, play, all brilliant! It was fairly last minute yet Chloe was really obliging. They had a great area for walks and could play with Ted & his ball thrower so he had a brilliant time. Thank you”

“5 stars all around, you dog would be lucky to be in his care”


20. Hatty W.

“I went on holiday for 10 days and left my puppy with hatty. I was a little nervous being away for so long and leaving him with someone I didn’t no but she kept me updated and sent lots of pictures on the adventures he went on. She teached him new skills. She spent lots of time with him. She went above and beyond looking after him. She put all worries at ease. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family and will definitely being using her again in the future. Thank you so much.”
