6. Maria J.

“After a bad experience with a Rover sitter, I was rather anxious about leaving my dog with someone but Maria was absolutely fabulous and very understanding of my feelings. Our dog can be nervous, requires regular oral medication and takes time to get comfortable with people, but within 5 minutes of arriving, Maria and our dog were getting on great. Maria had our dog for 10 days and provided regular updates and photographs. She has areas nearby to have dogs off-lead, and some great walks for leaded activities too. Our dog has come back well exercised and clearly happy. I won't hesitate to book Maria again.”


7. Vanessa P.

“Albi had the time of his life at Vanessa’s with Archie I was surprised he even wanted to come home! Vanessa communicates so well about what Albi is up to.”


8. Francesca M.

“We had been let down by a family member for someone to look after our cocker spaniel, Kobi & managed to find Francesca. We was nervous to leave him with someone as he’s only 7 months old & requires 24 hour attention. I can honestly say we will 1 million percent be booking Francesca to watch Kobi again & recommending her to others. There was communication, including pictures over the weekend stay. Kobi was taken on long walks daily & given constant love and attention, which is exactly what we were looking for. It was definitely a home from home for Kobi. Massive Thankyou to Francesca, Kobi cannot wait to visit again.”


9. Megan F.

“Was impressed with Megan. She was very friendly and kept us updated with pictures and news. Our dogs were well looked after and very happy after their stay. We intend to ask Megan and partner to look after millie and Bailey again”


10. Constantin D.
“Chris has looked after our little pup Freckles several times. She is a rescue dog so can be a little nervous and apprehensive but Chris took great care of her and she looks forward to her visits. He sends us pics regularly to reassure us she is having a great time. I can't recommend him highly enough.”


11. Kristian W.
“As long as I have known Kris he has been around Cats and Dogs of his own and looking after people's prized possessions their dogs and cats. He appreciates the love and care that we want for our pets and how it is sometimes hard to make the decision to leave our pets in someone else's care. He has looked after our 2 little Westie dogs Poppy (14 years) and Teddy (6 years) whilst we went on our holidays. He was kind and very considerate to Poppy and Teddy's needs especially Poppy with her being old and suffering special needs. I didn't have any doubts about leaving them with Kris as I felt an instant feeling of understanding and care, and I was not wrong as when we returned Poppy and Teddy were very happy and seemed to have had a ball. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kris to have your well loved pet and Teddy and Poppy will definitely be returning.”


12. Jessica L.

“Bryn had so much fun with Scooby he didn't want to come home! I recieved regular pictures and updates as requested and Jess was very accomodating when we had to drop Bryn off later than originally booked. I would definitley book again!”

“Lovely family, highly recommended! Thanks again for looking after Kane , appreciate your time and patience with two little ones , Nige Jan and Kane”


17. Jessica B.
About: I have two dogs and two cats of my own but I would love to have more. Being a sitter is the next best thing :) I am away for work Monday to Friday day time but I am free on evenings and I can pet sit on Saturday and Sunday. I have a fenced in back garden and the animals have free roam of the downstairs areas. There is a stair gate blocking dogs from going upstairs as it’s the cats’ safe place to go if they want to take a break from the dogs.


18. Caitlin O.

“I recently had the pleasure of using Caitlin as a dog boarding sitter, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! The booking process was incredibly smooth and user-friendly, which set a positive tone right from the start. A few days after booking, we had a meet and greet where my fur babies could get acquainted with Caitlin and explore her cozy home. Caitlin’s warm and friendly demeanor immediately put me at ease. She took the time to listen carefully to my needs and preferences for my dogs, ensuring that they would be well cared for during their stay. I appreciate how attentive she was to their individual personalities and requirements. Throughout their stay, Caitlin provided regular updates on how my dogs were doing, which really reassured me that they were happy and comfortable. One of the standout aspects of my experience with Caitlyn was her flexibility. On checkout day, she kindly offered that I could pick my dogs up at any time that worked for me since she was home all day. This thoughtful gesture made the process so much easier for me, and I truly appreciated her accommodating nature. Overall, I highly recommend Caitlyn for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure my fur babies were safe, happy, and well-loved during their stay. It's such a shame that we're moving abroad, but if we ever return to Wales, I will definitely book with Caitlyn again in the future. Thank you so much, Caitlyn!”


19. Rhian H.

“Rhian was a star! Would strongly recommend boarding your precious doggo with her! Treacle loved her from the first meeting! It was lovely to receive updates and pics of how she was getting on 🥰 My girl had lots of lovely walks and the attention she loves. I was so relaxed leaving her there! I think Treacle was sad to leave ! Thankyou so much Rhian! 🐾🐾”

“Nicole, Liam and Luna are amazing - Cooper doesn’t want to leave. Always keeping me up to date and treating him like he’s part of the family. Thanks again!”
