“Tracie and Sarah were brilliant from start to finish. They were very easy to communicate with and always responded quickly, and were very generous with their time to allow our sometimes nervous dog to get to know them and their dog before she went to stay. During her stay we had updates and felt really reassured that they completely understood her needs, and gave her all the care and attention she would get at home. She was totally relaxed and happy when we went to collect her. We’d use them again without hesitation and would highly recommend them, you won’t find better care for your dog.”


“Took amazing care of our puppy for the week! Fed, watered, and walked consistently and was given loads of love and attention. Provided loads of updates throughout the week too! Definitely taking him back, he had a wonderful time there.”


“Alison was utterly perfect looking after my boy while I went on holiday. For just shy of a week she kept me updated and with loads of photos and videos of what they were up to throughout the day. I felt incredibly grateful to be able to leave my dog with someone so capable and loving. He’s a big boy with so much energy and Alison handled him so beautifully and confidently the whole time. I can’t thank you enough ♥️”


“Kirsty was a life saver providing last minute care for our dogs when someone else pulled out last minute. It's always nerve wrecking leaving your fur babies with someone new but I feel like as soon as they got into the house they had forgotten about me. She sent lots of updates and always responded to my messages quickly. When collecting the dogs both seemed in relaxed and in very good spirits, even the one with separation anxiety which is a huge plus. Will definitely be returning to her again. Thank you!”


“Malgorzata looked after our lab for us for the day. She was fantastic and helped us out when we had some difficulties with drop off which was much appreciated. Our dog was well exercised and cared for and we loved the photo updates :)”


“Baffy was so well looked after by Hannah and Jordan, many thanks. Secure private garden, regular walks to a network of local parks and the beach and plenty of playing in between. His likes and preferences were all catered for. I would unhesitatingly recommend Hannah and Jordan for your dog's worry-free stay”


About: I provide pet care with a focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment that feels just like home. With years of hands-on experience. I’m skilled at adapting to each animal's unique personality and needs. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can stay connected with your pet. I know how important it is to feel close to them, even from afar. Every pet is treated as if they were my own, with genuine affection and respect for their well-being and happiness. I currently work from home so can provide constant play and toilet breaks whenever needed.

I no longer have any animals of my own after we lost our boarder collie suddenly last year, we have since decided to provide a safe haven for others.

“Max and Ruby loved their stay with Herbie & Harry (Emma and Laurence). At short notice the family was very hospitable and welcoming to take in the two of them and care for them for two nights so that we could head North on family business. With a great outdoor space and secure location Max & Ruby had great freedom and we could see from the happy friendly nature of Herbie and Harry this was certainly a great place for the dogs. Emma assured us we can focus on other things and that she would be conciencious to Rubys needs and Max's ladish ways. It was a breathe of fresh air having the two cared for and loved whilst we went away. They have returned happy healthy and full of energy. Max telling us all about it. Thank you to you all such friendly and kind people. We shall be booking again when we require. Five star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Charlotte did a fantastic job at looking after Smudge while we were away for a few weeks over Christmas. We were kept updated with pictures and info letting us know how he was getting on as this was the first time we had left him with someone else, but I can safely say we would definitely use Charlotte again! Highly recommended.”


“Annie looked after Nora for 10 nights. She waa so patient and kind when Nora was extremely anxious. Even Annie's husband gave her time and space to get used to him. We will definitely book Nora to stay with Annie again and can"t recommend her highly enough!!”


“We left our two 8 month pups with Nicola and Jake and we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to look after our pups. We had regular updates which were really reassuring! They went the extra miles for our boys and made the experience for our pups as best as possible for their first stay away. If we ever need a dog sitter again we would 100% want to use them x”


About: We have had Milo for 8 years and regularly look after my best friends bedlington whippet. We will treat your dog like our own with lots of love. Joel works from home full time so is very flexible. I've just graduated from vet school, but don't start working until mid September, so I am around all day during the summer. We are very relaxed and will allow the dogs to be on the sofa and bed. We have a fenced garden and can let the dogs out as often as you would like us to. We would never leave your dog alone. Milo has lots of food allergies so we are very sensible and don’t leave food lying around etc.

“What can I say? Loulou our Lurcher just had the best possible holiday with the wonderful chilled Jayne & equally chilled Vinny. A country sourjon in great location, beautiful, comfortable home and the love she received was palpable. We must extend our apologies to Vinny for Loulou's impolite take-over of Vinny's bed. Thank you Jayne, it made our US holiday even more enjoyable knowing how safe and happy Loulou was in your care. 🥰😍🐕🐾”

I love walking, and can provide a caring Home from home vibe. I work from home 4 days a week and run my own business. This involves going to some great locations with plenty of coast and countryside, safe spaces. I have a large 4x4 with cosy dog bed to travel comfortably. I have a warm pantry with a closed door, for a safe space to sleep. I can travel, as work for myself so can be based anywhere with phone signal.

We don’t leave our dog with anyone other than family and friends but leaving our Sproodle Louie with her is great as I know I don’t have to worry about him and he will be cared for and loved just as much as at home (if not more) which allows us to have a fun time apart with little worry atall! Highly reccomend. Thanks Stacey 🙂”

Sin Tung Sabrina L.
“When it comes to pet care, Sabrina is an expert. In addition to being trustworthy and responsible, she also shows genuine affection and attention to detail. She always takes the time to learn about the requirements and personalities of each creature, whether they be dogs, cats, or something else entirely. I've witnessed the way she makes the animals feel loved, safe, and at ease. I heartily recommend Sabrina if you're searching for a trustworthy someone who will treat your pet as if it were their own. You could not ask for a better pet care provider than her!”
