“My labradoodle Davey had the most amazing time with Isabelle. She is a super-nanny for dogs with lots of walks, play dates, puppiccinos and doggie muffins and even a coconut scented bubble bath just before being collected. Davey was happy and relaxed when I arrived. I thoroughly recommend Isabelle x”

He got along splendidly with the two greyhounds and was treated like another member of the family. I shall certainly send Oscar here again.”

Katie L.
“Katie loves all creatures. They respond to her as if she is immediately trustworthy, choosing to be with her in preference to whoever else might be around and that includes cats. Katie has looked after our dogs including our blind rescue dog , a lab lurcher cross who lived until the age of 15 and friends’ dogs and puppies. She is very affectionate but also sets and keeps the training boundaries. She is empathic and compassionate, picks up on any illness or injury and reacts sensibly and appropriately. She is an intelligent young woman. Katie loves to be outdoors and exercising so she is happy to spend hours walking dogs in the lanes or on the beach, and always cleans them as necessary afterwards.”
