“Amazing from start, communication prior to, and during boarding was fantastic. Melanie so thoughtful, flexible and helpful throughout, Our dog had a great holiday, we were so reassured, especially as first time for us to be away from her, and she not had huge social experiences. The daily updates and photos were so appreciated. Will definitely be visiting again”
“I honestly can’t thank Lucy and her family enough. This was a very last minute booking due to my partner needing surgery with only three days’ notice. I contacted Lucy on the Friday, we arranged a meet and greet on the Saturday, and Bella stayed Sunday and Monday night. The whole process was smooth and reassuring from start to finish. Lucy has a beautiful home with a lovely big garden, and her husband Luke and their two children are all so sweet and kind. Bella was walked twice a day by Luke and was clearly very well cared for throughout her stay. Lucy followed all my requests, including allowing Bella to sleep upstairs in her crate just as she does at home. I also received photo updates and messages, which really put me at ease during such a stressful time. Bella definitely made herself at home snuggling up on the sofa with Lucy in the evenings ❤️ When I collected Bella, she was happy, content and completely comfortable with Lucy — which says everything. I will definitely use Lucy again and I’m so grateful for everything she and her family did for us. Thank you so much 🥰”
“Julie was an excellent pooch sitter for our nervous chihuahua. He INSTANTLY loved Julie, she has a calm and nurturing demeanour and our dog was at ease the moment she opened the door (where usually he is quite nervous with people he has never met before). Julie was excellent to communicate with, she was happy to meet our dog at her home for us to ensure that he was acquainted with her and felt comfortable, we felt very confident to leave our dog with her following this visit, her home is secure and homely; a home from home for your pet’s visit. Thank you for taking the best care of our pooch Julie, he returned home content and calm and visibly well cared for. I highly recommend Julie to take care of your pet. I will definitely be booking our pooch in for a stay with Julie again in the future. Thank you Julie.”
“Oliver has been such a wonderful dog sitter! Flexible, super responsive, kind and so generosity with our dogs. I’m especially grateful given the last minute booking, we will definitely be using Oliver again. Cooper and Molly are especially grateful for the chicken filled trip to the cafe.”
“Piper had a great overnight stay with Amanda, can tell she had lots of cuddles and she came back happy! Booking was easy and Amanda was kindly very flexible on timings for drop off. Good communication, will definitely book Piper in for another stay.”
“Dora appeared to have settled in quite well with Sophie and her lovely family straight away... I was very happy to have left Dora after an intentional introduction visit, Dora was fussed by both Sophie and her daughters and made very welcome.... I would recommend Sophie and will be using her service's again in the future...”
“Crystal took fantastic care of Archie, and it was clear he really enjoyed his stay. He settled in quickly, and we appreciated the regular updates that kept us reassured. She looked after him especially well during the heatwave, managing his love of sunbathing with great care. We wouldn’t hesitate to have him stay with her again.”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life, I lost my beautiful miley a few months ago (my 12 year old Frenchy) and it still hurts, it's too early to get a new dog so im opening up my home and life to yours I offer so much love and care I've had dogs my life, different breeds, different temperaments and know every dog is different and every dog needs different attention, all we ask is to know everything about your dog so we can give him or her exactly what they need while your away were hoping to offer everything from overnight stays to walks to home care. We want you dog to feel safe secure and happy. My beautiful fur baby unfortunately passed away recently so I currently have no routine, I'm more than happy to mimic your current routine to your fur baby Our garden is huge, and fenced off with two gates that have signs not to open we are happy to mimic your home routine as much as possible so your babies don't get home sick.
“Highly recommend Alisha and Sean ,they looked after scampi for us for 4 days ,such a lovely couple ,looked after scampi well ,he seemed very happy when I picked him up , would definitely ask them again to look after him .thankyou very much .”
“I was very impressed with Ingrid and the care she gave Teddy. Communication was great throughout and prior to booking Ingrid even replied to my booking request whilst she was on holiday abroad! I was uncertain how Teddy would be with Ingrid's 7 month old female puppy as Teddy is not neutered but I was reassured by photos that all was well. When I collected Teddy from Ingrid he continued to give her kisses and cuddles whilst I sat talking, all of which is a good sign that Teddy was comfortable with staying at Ingrid's. Thank you!”
“Karen is lovely and very friendly, Teddy had a great time staying overnight with her. It was our first time leaving Teddy with a dog sitter, so we were a little apprehensive, but we had no need to be. We have booked Karen in agagin already! Thank you so much for looking after Ted so well Karen. See you next month xx”
“Lowri and her family looked after our two springers like they were their own. We had regular pictures of beautiful walks and updates on them. They were considerate of each dogs needs and we would love her to have them again.”
“Fab experience with Mandy from start to finish, quick replies setting up meet and greet to meet my dog to start, meet and greet went really good, Mandy showed me around her home and talked a little about her routine would be. Communication continued after meet and greet, then when booking came, Mandy was in contact to arrange times etc. Communication all weekend with pictures and videos of my dog. Would definetly recommend!”
“We wouldn't hesitate to leave Eric with Caitlin and her partner again. They have a real passion for pets and took great care of our greyhound. Good communication and helped us out when our flight was delayed meaning a very late collection. Thanks so much guys!”
“I was a bit worried about leaving Myloe but he seemed at home at the meet and greet and when we dropped him off. Judging by the photos he seemed to enjoy himself especially with the children. However as Myloe is quite sensitive he did stress as he rarely away from at least one of us and had several accidents. Full marks to Amy who took everything in her stride and let us know how things were going. Thanks Amy for looking after him, trying to destress him and what probably felt like endless mopping up. Myloe came back happy from his holiday and we felt reassured he was being looked after well”
“Gloria took such good care of Winnie. We picked Winnie up and she was very happy. My husband said he could tell Winnie had fallen in love with Gloria. Gloria kept us up to date with Winnie and helped Winnie settle in a new home. Highly recommend for dog sitting.”
“Frankie is 16 year old dog so I do worry about him while I am away. When I returned for holidays Frankie was a bundle of fun so obviuosly had been well looked after. He was even allowed to sleep in Aggies bedroom. I highly recommend this service.”
“Abigail and Jose hosted our rescue pup for a trial night which was his first time staying away from home since we’ve had him. Their care and attention to detail was phenomenal and instantly made us and Tiggy feel safe and comfortable. So willing to work around our dogs needs and he had the most amazing time, he wanted to stay and go on another scenic walk in the countryside. ☺️”
About: Growing up we always had a dog who was a special family member. We had springer spaniels and labradors along with an epileptic white cat. I enjoy spending time with dogs, talking to them, grooming them or just playing. We wanted a family dog for years but as our jobs didn’t allow this in the past we were never able to commit as dogs need so much time, love and affection. My current job now allows me to have the time to spend with your dogs instead. I work from home with a flexible work environment that allows me to spend time with your furry friends. Being self employed I am not at the beck and call of a boss, this allows me to enjoy time with your dogs. We have a fenced off back garden where your dog can spend time safely and the house is also a comfortable and relaxing environment. Depending on your dogs needs, I can accommodate any specific requirements. I love spending time with your furry friends ensuring they feel comfortable in their home from home.
“Georgia was absolutely amazing with Ronnie! He is my whole heart, so I was naturally worried leaving him when his eyes and ears haven't been great, on top of managing the heat. But Georgia treated him like her own from start to finish. She kept me updated with lovely photos and videos, kept his eyes and ears so clean, and Ronnie had a lush time with her lovely dog, they got on amazingly well! Knowing my boy was in such loving, capable hands meant everything to me. Highly recommend and will 100% book again!”

“This was the first time we booked Chelsea to look after Jess & Nala 🐈⬛ 🐈 you can tell she really cares and took a lot of time to be patient with my more nervous cat, Jess. Thank you so much for keeping us updated with pics and info on how they were doing. We’d definitely book again!”
“We can’t recommend Tanya highly enough! She was absolutely amazing with our cat, Luna, during her drop in visits. Luna is usually very shy and wary of new people, but Tanya was so patient and understanding, always letting Luna interact on her own terms. It didn’t take long before Luna was completely comfortable with her, approaching her for attention and even jumping into her lap for cuddles, which is something she rarely does with new people! Tanya was incredibly thorough and did everything we asked during each visit. It was so reassuring knowing Luna was being so well cared for while we were away. We especially appreciated the detailed daily updates, along with lots of photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease and let us see just how happy and relaxed Luna was. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care Tanya gave Luna and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. We’d absolutely love for Tanya to look after Luna again in the future!”
About: I’ve had cats all my life since a young girl. I have 2 cats at home. 3 year old Minnie and her daughter 1 year old daisy. Both my cats are neutered. And I worm and flea them regular. My cats mostly like to go outside so separating animals is not a problem. My house is clean and warm. I have 2 younger girls 4 and 8. They both love animals and are kind and caring. And I have 2 older teenage girls who can assist with pet caring
About: I have lived with my cat, Mister Pebbles, since me and my fiance became a couple 5 years ago. In that time he has become my best friend and near constant shadow. Mister Pebbles requires nightly medication on a strict routine, so I am confident in providing the same care for your fur babies too! I am confident in meeting new cats, understand their needs, and am patient with them. Cats are much more friendly than most give them credit for, however they require a lot more care and understanding to form that bond (Which I am more than happy to provide!).
“We were really pleased to find Michelle. She sent us picture and video updates on every visit, allowing us to know that the we’re both well and happy! She even managed to make our cat that’s nervous around new people feel at ease. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending her to others and would definitely have her look after Jess and Nala again! ”
“Thank you for taking care of our Mimi over the last few days. She really enjoyed it and the level of care was fantastic. She had play time, brushing and hygiene all covered. I am sure she wants us to go away more often and we would love to have you back in the future!”
About: I've been a dog owner for almost 5 years to my dog Willow. I have experience in home sitting and dog walking for friends and family I will be providing all services whilst I am back home from uni. As I am back from uni I will be at home at all times. I do ask that you quickly check my calender before booking to make sure I'm available and to avoid disappointment. I have a fenced in garden and my dog who is very friendly and gets on really well with all dogs. I will also go to others houses
“Robert was excellent with our two cats whilst we were away for a weekend, he gave them lots of attention and played with them when visiting to feed them. He took time to understand the cats and provided quick updates with photos. He was also really helpful with bringing in deliveries.”
About: I have her pets all my wife from dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs. I currently have two labradors that live with my mum back in Wales. I’m a big animal lover and have not only looked after my own animals. Also family members pets as well. I have looked after many rescue dogs, whether it be walking or babysitting and I’m currently working with my uncles dog which is a rescue who has severe anxiety and is reactive to both people and dogs. My main goal is to make an animal feel comfortable and safe in its environment. I feel comfortable around all dogs, no matter the demeanour and I am more than happy to spend extra time and care building bonds and trust with those dogs that need a little more TLC. I am a uni student and a part-time NHS employee. My hours are very flexible. I choose my own hours within my NHS job. I am free both within the week and on weekend. My own fur babies have never been crate trained however, they do have their own separate room in my house back in Wales, which they know is there’s. With family members I have used baby gates along with in-house fencing and feel comfortable doing so. I respect the Boundry is already in place by the pet owner, and I’m happy to follow the day-to-day lifestyle that pet is used to. On walks, I am used to both muscles, long leash, short leash and harnesses. I feel comfortable with on leash and off leash walks dependent on the recall training of the dog. I’m also happy to encourage some basic training as I have done with my own dogs over the years.
“Laura has had my dog a few times now, from overnight to pop in visits. I was very worried at due to never have left him with anyone other than family. Arlo now loves seeing Laura and I would highly highly recommend Laura as she is great with dogs. keeps you updated through the day with info and pictures etc! no reason to use anyone else going forward!”
“Jess was absolutely fantastic! They were reliable, caring, and gave my cats so much attention and love while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I came home to a happy, relaxed cats. I highly recommend their service!"”

“So anxious about leaving our precious Luna but, we needn’t have been. Karen put us at ease. Her and Luna hit it off straight away. Karen is absolutely loving, caring, devoted and we trust her 100%. Thank you Karen. We will see you again soon. Xx”
“My husband and I booked Beverly to take care of our little boy when we go on Holiday for a week. We were very nervous to leave him, so booked an earlier date for a day so they could get to know each other. Beverly took such amazing care of him and genuinely treated him as though he was hers. He spent hours playing in the garden and made friends with her gorgeous dogs. When my husband went to collect him, he didn’t want to come home! We’re so happily to have found someone to trust to look after him for us to go on holiday. We know he will have the most amazing week with Beverly and her dogs.”

About: Hello! Mark here- a friendly, trustworthy and active dog walker with tons of excitable (or calm depending what’s needed) energy. Im an active runner with experience of daily walks with my 18 month old Lab Daisy where she walks both on and off lead confidently. Having been around dogs my whole life we took the plunge and squeezed Daisy in to our already busy life a year and a half ago where she has thrived from a puppy to becoming the friendliest dog there is. I can provide the same energy, fun and care when looking after and walking your doggos. I can walk your dog(s) individually or bring Daisy along should they want a play pal. I work as a self employed camera assistant which means that when I’m not working I am home and available, my schedule reflects this and you can expect my full attention when your pup is with me. We have a fully fenced garden that our own dog uses to do her business. Our dog Daisy is Very friendly and playful with loads of energy but is also fully crate trained should they get too excited and need to be separated. Our cat Margaret is also used to having dogs around, both mine and my mums and tends to go off and do her own thing. She is also very friendly and a proper lap cat. Our two children are at school during the daytime however when they are home have no problems with the boundless energy of Daisy dog.
About: My partner has always been raised with dogs as pets for 20 years, these have ranged from boarder coillies, cocker spaniels, terroirs to Rottweilers. I have alway grown up around family dogs and have loved taking care of them, Our home will be your fur babies home away from home when they stay with us. Bella was the fifth member to our family, sadly we said goodbye to her in May 25. But we would treat your fur babies exactly the same as we treated Bella. We welcomed the newest member of our family; Gwen in April 2026. As a Labrador she is full of energy yet still also very chilled. She enjoys a lovely walk and snoozing on the sofa. Gwen has slotted right in with our family and has also embraced the chance to have furry friends stay with her. She’s a quick learner and soon realises if a furry friend wants to play with her or not. Both of our children have been raised around dogs, and love getting involved with caring for them. I predominantly work from home and my partner works a rolling shift pattern so your fur babies will always have company when they stay with us. Bella is set in her ways however we would be more than willing to follow the same feeding scheduling that you implement for your dog. We would welcome your dog’s blankets, toys and beds to make them feel comfortable during their stay. We also have space for your fur babies to sleep in their create if needed. We have a large enclosed garden that your fur babies will have constant access to during their stay.
“Tina was able to help us out with our last minute request Bella. Tina saw quickly that we weren’t local so a meet and greet beforehand wasn’t possible Therefore she suggested a phone call so we were able to introduce ourselves, tell her about Bella and ask any questions. Having had that call with Tina we felt confident that all would be fine. On meeting Tina outside her house our good impressions from the call were immediately confirmed. Tina obviously has a deep love for dogs and knows how to care for them - we wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again if we had a similar need and would recommend her wholeheartedly. Bella enjoyed her time and was very relaxed ..,and we enjoyed talking to Tina and her family..”

About: I've owned been around animals for most of my life. I currently have a cat and I am a huge animal lover! I'd love an oppourtinity to show your pet some love :) I work full time however I work from home 3 days a week so I am very flexible in the week and on weekends. I have flexible hours as well which helps me with animal care. I have a fenced garden with grass, I love playing with animals and giving them lots of love especially when their routine is off. I love spending time with animals.
“Tanya was punctual and notified me when Diesel was being walked, spent plenty of time with him and sent plenty of photos and videos of their walks in the park. Thank you”
“Excellent experience – this was my first time using a dog walker and I couldn’t be happier. Amazing communication throughout, and she clearly really cared about my dog. I was kept fully informed with regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind. A lovely lady – I’ll definitely be using her again!"”
About: I've been pet and house sitting with my mum since I was a teen. I have experience training puppies, caring for kittens, pet sitting dogs of all ages and have great connections with cats and dogs alike! Couch potatoes or energetic toy chasers, all welcome with me!! I'm a recent University Graduate who's moved home and looking to hang out with some lovely pups. My routine is flexible depending on you and your dog's needs. I live my childhood home with a walled garden only 15 minutes away from Pontypool Park and 4 minutes away from woodlands. I also have experience pet sitting in other homes, always respectful and careful not to interfere with the home or the pet's routines.
About: I have lived with animals in and around my home since I was little, and sincerely believe that pets are as much a part of family as other people. I have experience within the pet retail industry, once working for a small independent local pet store, and have extensive knowledge on pet products and pet care. I have a natural friendship with pets, and having dog/ cat sat for family and friends have cemented myself as their pets best friend- And after many years still receive wagging tails and zoomies when I turn up at their house! Growing up my family dog was a very hungry and very friendly Chocolate Labrador named Mambo, who I delighted in giving copious walks, playtime, and treats. I currently live with my fiance and my cat son, Mister Pebbles, who is the lord of the house. He is seven years old but doesn't act like it, and requires daily medicine and a strict routine. While Mister Pebbles was my fiance's cat initially, I have over the years developed a strong father-son bond with him, and much to my fiances dismay may have become the favourite parent. I have access to my own vehicle, and can be flexible according to both you and your pets needs. I am currently unemployed, focusing much of my time on being a good house husband to my fiance. I intend on pursuing a PhD part-time in the new year, and I am excited to work my pet sitting duties around this. In the meantime I am fully flexible and available, own my own vehicle, and am able to fit my schedule around the needs of yourself and your pet. I am reliable, responsible, and communicative, and will endeavour to supply peace of mind throughout every step of our journey together. As both a pet owner and a homeowner, I fully understand how much anxiety can arise from trusting your home and pets with a new sitter. I am more than happy to field any and all questions you may have for me prior to you making your booking. Even if a quick chat with me would ease your mind, I am more than happy to accommodate!

“Luna was more than happy to go with Mark on the very first visit. She got very excited when he came there second time and by seeing her photos it gives us piece of mind that she is having fun and enjoying her walks especially the getting very dirty side. We can highly recommend Mark and will continue to use him each week if he has availability and would love to see Daisy and Luna together sometime time. THANK YOU MARK”
“Alisha & Sean have been fantastic with Millie. After two walks now, I feel really confident leaving her with them - they’re reliable, great with communication, and always send updates and photos which I really appreciate. Millie clearly enjoys her time with them (long walks and happy when she’s back!), and it’s obvious they genuinely care about the dogs they look after. Would definitely book again and highly recommend both of them!”
“Robyn came over to meet my dog Jasper before the walk and he took to her straight away. The photos and videos show he had a great time and it was great for me to see him happy in my absence. I will definitely be booking Robyn again!”

About: Hiya, I’m Katya! I’m 23 and have recently graduated from university after spending the last few years studying in Cardiff. I’ve now moved to Cwmbran with my partner and his family, where I’ll be based for the next year. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have around 10 years of experience being around and caring for them, from looking after my own dogs to helping friends and family with theirs. Because of this, I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels, and I absolutely love getting to know each dog's individual little quirks! Since graduating, I’ve decided to take some time before jumping straight into a full-time career, which means I currently have a much more flexible schedule. Pet sitting and dog walking gives me the opportunity to spend that time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’m caring, patient and reliable, and I understand how nerve-racking it can be to trust somebody else with your pet. I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I’d give my own and make sure you’re kept updated while they’re with me. ❤️ Since graduating from university, my schedule has become much more flexible. I still work part-time at a bar, usually on Friday and Sunday evenings and occasionally during the week, although my shifts can vary. At the moment I’m taking some time to figure out my next steps after university, but I still love keeping myself busy! During the week I spend my time going to the gym, attending networking events and working on my own ventures . Pet sitting and dog walking fits really nicely into my routine as it gives me another reason to get out of the house while spending time with animals, which I absolutely love. Because my schedule is fairly flexible, I’m happy to work around you and your pet’s routine wherever I can. care for every pet as if they were my own and understand that every animal has their own personality, boundaries and routine. I’ll always follow any instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding times, walks, medication or any little routines that help them feel comfortable. I’m patient when meeting new animals and will always let them get to know me at their own pace. I’m also more than happy to send photos and updates while you’re away!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have grown up with both cats and dogs throughout my life. My experience includes caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from giant Newfoundlands to miniature Jack Russell’s, so I am comfortable adapting to the individual needs of each pet. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same care and attention that I give my own. I currently work part-time along side studying, but my schedule is very flexible as my bother and I manager our own shifts within our family business. With a little notice I can usually adjust my work schedule to accommodate pet sitting and dog walking bookings. I’m available all throughout the week and also the weekend. I have a commitment to running a theatre group 10am - 1pm on a Saturday. I am happy to discuss individual requirements and will always do my best to be flexible to suit both you and your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I believe it’s important to keep their routine as consistent as possible, I’ll follow any instructions provided regarding feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines to help your pet feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I understand each pet has their own personality and needs, whether that’s lots of exercise and play, plenty of cuddles and companionship or simply being calm and familiar presence. I’ll always make your pet’s wellbeing my priority and ensure they receive plenty of attention and care. I will also respect that I am a guest in your home and will treat your property with the upmost care, keeping everything clean, tidy and secure throughout my visit. I’ll happily provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well looked after.
About: 🔒Secure and safe gated play park walks 📸 Regular pup pictures and updates 🌲On lead forestry walks 👋🏻 Meet & greet before booking 💓 Cared for as if they were my own 🥰 Lots of hugs and cwtches I know how nerve wracking it can be to be without your pet and my aim is to make dog & owner’s experience as stress free as possible! Growing up we have always had dogs and I have taken on a lot of the walking/training responsibilities of both our animals and friends and families. I have lived with and looked after a variety of breeds and have experience with larger dogs too. Myself and my partner would love a dog of our own, but due to work commitments changing in the future I don’t want to commit to a dog of our own and not be able to meet its needs 100% of the time. So by offering services through rover I can fill that dog shaped hole in my heart and provide your pets with the love and attention they need when you are unable to x I am a freelance makeup artist and have a flexible schedule which will allow pet care to fit in to my routine easily and allows me to give them my full attention. I will be the primary caregiver to your pet. However when my partner Becky is not working, we will be caring for your pet together and both love going to long walks and adventures so your dog will get plenty of exercise and entertainment whilst in our care! Currently only offering pet sitting in their own home. It’s important to me that your pet is safe and comfortable in somewhere they know. I will ask all about their routine and how best they usually like to spend their days, so I can continue to make them happy and comfortable when you’re not there.
About: Growing up we always had a dog who was a special family member. We had springer spaniels and labradors along with an epileptic white cat. I enjoy spending time with dogs, talking to them, grooming them or just playing. We wanted a family dog for years but as our jobs didn’t allow this in the past we were never able to commit as dogs need so much time, love and affection. My current job now allows me to have the time to spend with your dogs instead. I work from home with a flexible work environment that allows me to spend time with your furry friends. Being self employed I am not at the beck and call of a boss, this allows me to enjoy time with your dogs. We have a fenced off back garden where your dog can spend time safely and the house is also a comfortable and relaxing environment. Depending on your dogs needs, I can accommodate any specific requirements. I love spending time with your furry friends ensuring they feel comfortable in their home from home.

“Abigail and Jose hosted our rescue pup for a trial night which was his first time staying away from home since we’ve had him. Their care and attention to detail was phenomenal and instantly made us and Tiggy feel safe and comfortable. So willing to work around our dogs needs and he had the most amazing time, he wanted to stay and go on another scenic walk in the countryside. ☺️”
“Georgia was absolutely amazing with Ronnie! He is my whole heart, so I was naturally worried leaving him when his eyes and ears haven't been great, on top of managing the heat. But Georgia treated him like her own from start to finish. She kept me updated with lovely photos and videos, kept his eyes and ears so clean, and Ronnie had a lush time with her lovely dog, they got on amazingly well! Knowing my boy was in such loving, capable hands meant everything to me. Highly recommend and will 100% book again!”
