“Amazing stay for our dog Ralph! Miriam and her partner are incredible. Gorgeous home and setting with the added bonus of their dog Milo, a perfect companion for Ralph. Leaving Ralph as a family would usually make us feel guilty but seeing him so happy with beautiful photos and videos from Miriam made us feel so relaxed and happy. Ralph actually had a luxury weekend break, made friends and enjoyed a bubble bath 🥰🙏🏼 Could not be happier that we found Miriam as she just made everything so easy and chilled even down to us needing an extra night stay at a last minute request. Everything was so simple and easy. So Grateful 🙏🏼 Ralph will be back very soon as he misses Milo 🐶”

“Federica was fantastic! Lovely home for our little dog who was very well cared for. Constant communication and photo updates... would definitely recommend Federica and we will definitely use her again :)”

“If I could give George 10 stars, I would. He's an absolutely fantastic dog sitter! He went above and beyond to take good care of Jasper. We highly recommend George -- and would book him again in a heartbeat.”


“Excellent!! We used Steven for the first time and he exceeded our expectations. He was friendly, accommodating and a good communicator. We’re so thankful for his care of our Mika and would use him again. Thank you Steven! 😊”

“Nadja was super communicative and kept us updated on our doggies while we were away. They came home happy, brushed and tired from all the lovely walks she took them on. Would highly recommend!”

“Chiara was amazing with Bonnie! She sent us lots of pictures and updates. She also made sure Bonnie was not alone on New Year's as she is very scared of the fireworks. Highly recommend!”

“I can’t say enough about how lovely Karen was with our dog Milo. This was our first time of leaving Milo, and we were anxious about how it would go. We needn’t have worried! Karen’s warmth and love of dogs was apparent from our first meeting. Her home and garden was entirely dog friendly and Milo had the best of care. Karen kindly kept us updated throughout our week away with daily photos and messages. I would not have any hesitation in asking her to look after Milo again and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for dog boarding. With our thanks, Sue and Steve (and Milo)!”


About: I have owned dogs my entire life and have had owned them and trained them from puppies. I currently share 3 dogs with my family aged 6 months, 5 years old and 10 years old. I am used to caring for a range of ages and energies. I also have experience of caring for a variety of breeds and catering to their individual needs. I am a teacher so I am available during school holidays and weekends. Dogs in my care get at least 2 walks a day and lots of play time. With Stansted airport only 5 minutes away! You can drop your dog off on route to the airport or make use of my available parking space at an extra charge whilst you’re away. I have a very good size, fenced garden and I share 3 friendly medium sized dogs with my family who can keep your dog company. I can also crate your dog if that’s their normal routine. I have the flitch walk and fields on my doorstep for us all to enjoy! I am happy to alter my day to suit your fur babies routine.
About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers who have both grown up surrounded by dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to us. Over the years, we’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends and family — often for extended stays — giving us hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, and needs. We genuinely love having dogs around and treat every dog in our care as if they were our own. Your dog will enjoy a relaxed, home-from-home environment with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We’re especially passionate about the outdoors and love taking dogs on enriching walks and countryside adventures, giving them both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Whether your dog enjoys energetic exploring or gentle strolls followed by sofa cuddles, we tailor their stay to suit their personality and routine. Our goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while ensuring your dog feels safe, happy, and loved during their stay with us. As we both work from home, dogs in our care are rarely left alone and naturally become part of our daily routine. We already have our own friendly beagle who fits seamlessly into our schedule, including morning and evening walks around the fields right on our doorstep, so guest dogs enjoy the same consistent exercise and enrichment. Our days are structured around the dogs — with regular toilet breaks, playtime, companionship, and relaxed downtime between activities. We love being outdoors and make the most of the surrounding countryside for stimulating walks, sniffing opportunities, and exploration, which helps keep dogs both physically active and mentally content. In the evenings, dogs can settle in with us for calm time and plenty of affection, just as they would at home. Having dogs around is something we genuinely enjoy, not something we fit in — so they receive lots of attention, interaction, and supervision throughout the day. We provide a calm, safe, home-from-home boarding environment where dogs are treated as part of the family. We keep routines as close as possible to what they are used to at home — including feeding schedules, walk preferences, sleeping arrangements, and any specific care needs — because we know how important familiarity is for a dog’s comfort. We only board a small number of dogs at a time so that every dog receives plenty of individual attention, affection, and supervision. Our home is secure, comfortable, and dog-friendly, with space to relax as well as opportunities for play and enrichment. We understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, so we prioritise communication and will happily provide updates and photos during their stay for peace of mind. Our aim is always to ensure dogs feel happy, relaxed, and loved while owners feel confident they are in safe, caring hands.
“It is very difficult to quantify how incredible and sweet Andreia and her beautiful family are. I could talk about how wonderful she was with our “less than easy” Spaniel, but there are so many other aspects of Andreia that makes her quite special. We had numerous complications with our holiday plans including a very last minute postponement as a result of American bombing in the Middle East. Andreia took it all in her stride. In summary, I would dare to suggest that if you are lucky enough to have Andreia take care of your dog, you can count yourself lucky.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child and as an adult. I had a beautiful springer spaniel who had diabetes and we were blessed to have as part of our family for 11 years. I therefore understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust and that your dog is comfortable and happy. I currently work part time and am able to work with you to meet the needs of you and your dog. I have detailed days that I am available but I am flexible to do drop ins after 4.30pm on other days. I have a beautiful home and a large fenced garden, live near lovely walks and can work with you on the best way to keep your dog happy and comfortable in our home. Having had a diabetic dog, I truly understand how important it is to find a sitter that you trust and are comfortable.
About: Ive loved dogs all my life & had 3 vizslas but sadly lost 2 in the last year due to age & cancer. My vizsla x boy feels a bit lonely now! He’s a sweet rescue. We do 2 countryside walks a day, natural treats & he sleeps with me! (As did my other two as will yours if that’s what they are used to), I’m used to handling large dogs & my dogs are either racing thru the countryside or fast asleep on the sofa! I work from home & have a large secure (locked gate) fenced in 50ft garden. I work for myself from home do the figs always have me. When I’m at the supermarket or gym I have camera security. I never leave my dogs long. I spend my life in wellies lol ! Secure fenced in garden 50ft long. Warm cost home where your dogs are welcome on the sofa & bed. Large conservatory where the dogs love to lounge & watch the birds.
About: Experienced dog owner, love to spend time with all breeds of dogs and look after there needs. Experienced in giving Oral and Topical medicines to dogs/puppies. I’m flexibly self employed, available most evenings for drop in visits/walks and boarding/sitting. Out on a daily basis with my own pug Barry who is friendly with others. Available for solo care of your pets as required. I have a large fenced garden and a friendly elderly pug at home. I will cater to your personal requirements for your dog/puppy. Including medications, meal times and walks.

About: Owned my own dogs for 8+ years. Currently have my baby Frankie, 3 year old Dauschund (he adores other dogs!) I walk, sit and take care of lots of others dogs, regularly for family and friends. Ranging from small frenchies to labs, huskies and spaniels. Frankie has soo many friends who treat our home like theirs and are relaxed and calm here and join us on our walks around the area and in Hatfield Forrest! Our fave place! I have experience training my own dogs so we know accidents happen and are not put off by puppies in training! We live in a spacious 3 bedroom house and garden so there is plenty of room to roam around. Lots of toys and fun to be had! We try to get outside as much as possible so if your dog is with us on the weekend expect lots of time outside! I currently work from home Thursday and Fridays so can be with your pets all day and make sure they get enough walks! Weekends I am always at home so we would take your dog with us out on adventures, long local walks / the dog fields in bishops stortford / or to Hatfield Forrest! I have a fenced garden - fully safe. No escapees here! Frankie is great company for any dog small or large as he loves other dogs. We have multiple dog beds and spare crates if your dog is more comfortable in a crate over night. I live in a three bed house with a garden. So we have sofas in two different rooms and the same for beds if your dog needs some space and peace away from playing with Frankie.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 10, two Hungarian vizlas. I now live in London with my two year old sausage dog Troy! I have looked after neighbours dogs, Friends and families dogs many times. I have looked after older dogs, and also younger, I looked after two puppy pointers for two weeks so I understand the challenges that come with puppies. I’m a photographer and therefore love to take my camera out to get some great shots of the dogs in action! I work part time so have plenty of free weekdays, mornings work best. Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays are completely free days, other weekdays I’m free until 5pm. I live in a very secure flat in Fulham, which has access to many nice walks/parks which I visit regularly. I have a patio garden, and many dog toys to play with! I work remotely Monday to Wednesday and have Thursday and Friday off so am quite flexible! I sometimes head to Devon so would need at least a couple of days notice if dog care needed. I have a fenced garden so your dog will be safe at all times. I work downstairs so your dog will have company at all times as well :)
“We’re very pleased with our little dog’s stay with Monika and her family. He was treated with great care and attention . She sent us some lovely pictures while we were away. When we picked him up it was clear he’d had a very happy time and we would highly recommend Monika.”

“Cathy was just amazing. She has loads of experience with 2 gorgeous and very well behaved dogs of her own. She is so knowledgeable about how to care for dogs. She also provided regular updates on my dog without being asked. She is very professional and just a lovely person. My dog loved her. I will use her again 100%.”

George was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend boarding at his home. He was super responsive and very accommodating and mindful of Indy's requirements as a 12 year old greyhound. We did an intro with George's dog Daisy prior to Indy's stay, to make sure they got on and well, they had a blast - Daisy is a delightful and very happy pooch. George sent through regular updates and some lovely photos that were taken on a visit to a pumpkin patch. Indy was very much treated as part of the family and clearly had a wonderful time. I will be booking another stay soon!
