4. Georgia J.

“Rufus’s second stay with Georgia and Will. He was super excited to be there and made himself at home immediately. When I came to collect him he was sitting happily on the sofa snuggled up with Will. Think he had a great day as he was very quiet in the car on the way back, and his usual sleepy self this evening. Thanks Georgia!”


5. Kerry S.

“Kerry was fabulous. So accepting of my little fur babies and their quirks. She even won my little worrier over in less than a day, which is fabulous. Almost want to not say anything so as to keep her our secret. 🤣”

9. Jasmin B.
“Jaz looked after my 2 year old Lab x Collie recently and I was impressed. Bailey can be a bit of a handful and is full of energy, so I was a bit worried about leaving her with someone else. Jaz was brilliant with her though and I had nothing to worry about! They went on a nice long lead walk with breaks to be off lead where it was safe, which was ideal for Bailey and her mad zoomies! When I picked her up, I could tell that Bailey listened to Jaz and her commands, which reassured me. Jaz sent me pupdates and pics/videos throughout the day, which was a nice addition. It was nice to see Bailey playing with Mabel so well too 🥰 I would be happy for Jaz to mind Bailey again and I’m sure she’d have a great time with her and Mabel.”


10. Mika L.

“Blaze had a great time today with Mika (and Jesse!). She was very well cared for and we received lots of lovely photos and updates while she was there. Blaze can be a little nervous when left, but she didn’t want to leave at the end of their session! Thank you for looking after her :)”

About: I’ve always taken care of family and friends dogs, walking and looking after them from a young age! We have a family dog (my parents) who I looked after for a few years when I moved back home. I trained him from when we got him as a puppy and still look after him frequently now I work from home with the bi-weekly day in London. I therefore am available for day care and or lunchtime walks/ visits as well as weekend boarding. I will also do mid week boarding as necessary! I have an enclosed yard which is perfect for dogs to come in and out into the flat. I live in a ground floor flat and although it is small the kitchen is big enough for a dog to be very comfortable! I also live 2 min walk to bootham park!


15. xiaoyu T.

“Hutton was very happy to stay with xiaoyu, and she sent lots of pictures so we knew how he was getting on during the day. He loves his visits ❤️”


16. Sarah W.

“Sarah is amazing and my dog loves being with her. She is kind and follows instructions and was really understanding when I had to cancel one of the days I'd booked. Highly recommend.”


17. Sophie H.

“Our 8 month old puppy had the best day with Sophie today - he almost didn’t want to come home! I can see from photos that he has been given lots of fuss and attention, two lovely walks and has come home his normal self, if not a bit extra sleepy from all of the fun! We will definitely book with Sophie again next time we need day care in the York area☺️”


18. Heather B.

“Heather did a great job with Skye she has a very nice soft approach to a dog. Skye seemed very relaxed and comfortable when i picked her up. Heather had gone out of her way to get her to eat and look after her so many thanks Alistair”
