Dog Boarding Wheldrake

“I can't rate Sally highly enough. She has the skill and knowledge to work with all breeds and temperaments, including reactive dogs. My collie loves her.”

Nancy M.

“Fang looked after Bagel really well with plenty of lovely walks and playing tug. Fang kept us updated throughout with great pictures. Thank you!”

Christopher C.

“Buddy enjoys his time at Leslie and Paul's far more than his time at home :) He is a high strung dog that always finds his zen at their house. So appreciative of their great care!”

Sarah S.

“We went in to york for 3 days and toby was very happy with Christine. On day 2 and 3 , he actually pulled us round the corner and all the way up to her front door! Thank you for looking after him so well”

David R.

“I can’t recommend Zixuan highly enough! She’s looked after our dog Baxter wonderfully, he’s had a brilliant week with her and her dog and kept us updated with lots of photos and videos.”

Penelope J.

“Victoria was amazing. She accepted my request at quite short notice and was happy to talk over video beforehand to go through my dog's daily routine. I felt very comfortable leaving him with Victoria and had regular updates on how he was getting on.”

Mel T.

“We needed someone to look after our pet dog Lucky for a weekend and found Jaye and her husband on Rover. They were an excellent find and took really good care of him. They welcomed him into their home, nothing too much trouble, plenty of walks and sent us photo updates. He had a great mini holiday and settled right in. Will definitely ask them to look after Lucky again in the future.”

Alan G.

“I could write pages on how Cameron and Emily treat our dog with such love and as if he is their own, but I think Chapo’s feelings are much more important. It’s our second time booking with them, and Chapo had been quite moody before we dropped him off, but as soon as we got to their house he was suddenly very happy, very excited, very waggy tail, thrilled to be back. I think that says everything that needs to be said about their brilliant care. He loves playing with Hugo, and Cameron and Emily are amazing with him. Couldn’t recommend them enough.”

Sophie D.

“Our first time using Rover as our usual kennels mixed up our booking and left us needing to find somewhere at short notice. After drawing a blank at all nearby kennels, I gave Rover a try. Was simple to use and we were quickly matched with Jo. She arranged a pre-meet to get to know our dog and see if we were comfortable. She asked loads of great questions to make sure she knew all about our dog's needs and habits. We went ahead with the booking and Jo was superb - kept us up to date with photos, videos and details of what they'd been up to. Really helped set our mind at rest! Would highly recommend!!!”

Matt G.

“Our dog Fudge had a great time with Vanessa and her family. He has come back from kennels in the past shivering and nervous, even if just for a couple of days. He was with Vanessa for nearly a week and could not have been happier. It's clear that the family adore the dogs the look after. She sent regular "pupdates" and we were delighted to see how much he seemed to be enjoying himself, whether playing, going on long walks, or just snuggling in. Will certainly book in with Vanessa again in future”

Suve B.

“Amazing service from start to finish. Cariana provided regular updates throughout Benny’s stay and was more than happy to accommodate any special requests we had. With Benny only being a 13-week-old puppy, he’s definitely not the easiest guest, but Cariana was absolutely amazing with him and went above and beyond in every way. It’s such a shame she doesn’t live closer, as we would 100% use her again without hesitation. Highly recommended!”

Marianne S.

“Jane is the best! I was super worried about leaving our dog at home for the first time while we went away for a week, but Jane and her little troop of helpers (2 Chihuahuas and Gizmo, that chill cat) made Olive feel completely at home. Wouldn't hesitate for a second to leave Olive with Jane again. Total life saver!”

Alastair H.

“Eva has looked after Suki two weeks in a row, for overnight stays. Suki was so excited seeing Eva for the second time which to me, indicates she had a good time. Eva shared pictures through the stay!”

Josh C.

“Sophie was amazing, she took our dog on last minute and he had a fantastic time with her! She did long walk with him and sent me lots of photos and stayed in contact regularly. I will definitely be using Sophie again to care for our young dog. Thankyou!!”

Iona N.

“Angelina is absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend her more highly! She accommodated a very last minute request and was so helpful. Betty absolutely loved staying and was very comfortable around Angelina so we will definitely be booking again. Thank you!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals, from cats and dogs to chickens, horses, and even a rescue fawn! Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to travel the world, including spending time in New Zealand where I was fortunate enough to house-sit and care for some wonderful dogs. I’ve also built up experience through TrustedHousesitters, looking after pets in their own homes and making sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m very happy to provide references from my TrustedHousesitters stays if you’d like to hear about my experience from previous pet owners. Now that I’m back in the UK and settled in York, I’d love to continue doing what I enjoy and help care for your pets. While I’m not currently able to have a dog of my own, this gives me the perfect opportunity to enjoy plenty of walks, playtime and cuddles with yours! I’ll always treat your pets as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their individual personalities, routines and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks and adventures, a good game of fetch, or simply curling up on the sofa for some company, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, comfortable and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to leave your pet in someone you can trust, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind while they’re in my care. I’m primarily available for house-sitting and dog walks at weekends, as I work full-time during the week. Depending on the location, I may also be able to offer midday dog walks during the week, so please feel free to get in touch and I can see what might work. I’d also be happy to consider boarding, although as I live in a flat, this would depend on the size, temperament and individual needs of your pet. I’m always happy to have a chat beforehand to make sure I can provide a comfortable and suitable environment for them. I live in a flat in the city centre, and although I don’t have a garden, I’m a very outdoorsy person and love getting out for walks. I’m often down by the river exploring the local area, usually with a coffee stop at one of the many lovely cafés along the way — so there’s no shortage of opportunities for walks and adventures! When house-sitting, I’m very happy to follow your usual routines and instructions closely. I know every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to understand their individual needs and make sure they feel comfortable, happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Ewan and Katy are a wonderful couple who care for our furry friend when we need to be away. I know he will be looked after and loved. We get updates and pictures and I know they are looking forward to having him again in April. It is so comforting to know that you can leave your dog in their hands and he settles so well. Thank you both from Charlie, Rachel and Keith”

Rachel M.

“Thank you so much for looking after Rhea, the updates were great and I could see she was settled and happy with you, definitely recommend Kate”

Halina S.

“Our first time using Helen and she was fantastic; her communication and professionalism were apparent from the outset, as was her warmth and caring nature. Our retriever was grumpy when he got home which shows he’d rather have stayed with her 🤣”

Cameron C.

“Ella is fantastic with our dog Tipsy! Tipsy loves spending time with Ella and we get frequent updates whilst we are away. We reccomend Ella ! 😊”
