“I knew my dogs would be well looked after with Katie and they were, in fact they looked pretty fed up when they came home 😉 Thanks Katie, I have found someone outside of the family I trust completely with my dogs.”
“Shunqi had the best time with Goldie for the weekend and looked after her wonderfully, sending us lots of videos and pictures of her! It was lovely to see she was having a great time, we’ll book her in again!”
About: I have always loved animals and dogs in particular. I do think of them as family members and have always taken care of them in this way. I have learned a lot from training and taking care of my own dog. I am currently working part time in an ad-hoc capacity so choose my schedule. I do have a little boy who will sometimes need to be with me, he is used to dogs and very gentle. We are at home a lot of the time so looking after another dog would fit into my schedule very well. I have a fenced in garden and one friendly dog, lots of dog toys and we are often out playing in the garden. They are welcome to come inside or out as they need while they are here.
“Sharron is a lovely person, very caring and just perfect for our much-cherished Labrador. She made him feel at home and he seemed very happy, which was important to us. Highly recommended.”
“Anastasia couldn’t have been more welcoming for our dog. Ahead of the day her communication was excellent and she was super accommodating to our circumstances. Our dog had a lovely day, the pictures she sent showed how much fun he had! I would recommend Anastasia to anyone!”
“Chrissy has been amazing looking after our doggo for 6 nights. She kept us updated daily with photos and we returned to a relaxed and very at home pup when we went to pick her up. Would use again and can highly recommend.”
“Paul is very friendly and knowledgeable. Chip had a wonderful time with him. I felt that Chip was made to feel part of the family. I was kept well informed about what Chip was doing and how he was getting on. I would thoroughly recommend Paul to anyone.”
“Extremely kinda and respectful sitter, reassured me to no end with my dogs stay. This was his first time away from home and he was in excellent hands. Cannot recommend Charlie enough!”
“Excellent communication before and during the stay. A meet up was scheduled before the stay which was a good change to ask questions and check that our dog got in with them, which he did! Daily updates and photos were sent which was great! He came back exhausted which is always a good sign! Thanks, would definitely use again.”
“Absolutely fantastic from the get go! We popped in to introduce our dog to Georgia and Greg and he instantly looked at home. We were delighted with the daily updates and we feel as though our dog, Milo, settled in very quickly and was looked after like he was their own. This is the first time we have left Milo with new people and the first time we have used Rover. We will definitely be leaving Milo with Georgia and Greg in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have spent my whole life caring for animals. Over the years, I’ve regularly looked after pets for friends and family while they were away, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved in their owners’ absence. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, paying close attention to their routines, needs, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply some company and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care and attention while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care. Whether your pet enjoys company, playtime, regular walks, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a secure fenced garden and a friendly indoor cat. While she is gentle and calm around other animals, she can be a little nervous around unfamiliar pets. To ensure a stress-free environment for everyone, I can keep her on a separate floor of the house when needed. My home has three floors, providing plenty of space to safely separate pets if required. I will always make sure that both your pet and my cat are comfortable, happy, and well cared for during their stay!
“Thank you to Lesley and Phil who took great care of Betty we will not hesitate to let betty stay with them again. They are very friendly and professional and kept in touch regularly we loved receiving messages and photos on how she was doing lovely people 😊”
“Maria was great with communication and we left our dog in good hands for 12 days with Maria when we went abroad for a family holiday. We had the opportunity to meet Maria and her dog Bambi at their home before making the booking to ensure it was a good fit for both sides and to discuss any concerns. Received plenty of photos and updates and on returning home our boy is very happy and has been well looked after, definitely recommend and will use Marias services again if needed”
“We needed a dog sitter for our three dogs at quite short notice and find Ian! I am so glad we did. The dogs loved their stay and were so well looked after, being able to run around in his lovely garden. He has a lovely pug called Nelly who was very friendly and welcomed our dogs into her home with a waggy tail 😊 He sent us regular photos so we could see them settling in. Highly recommended 😊”
“We are so pleased to have found Helen and Andy on our doorstep. Our dog Vinnie had grown quite fearful of his kennels and we were determined to find him somewhere he could be more at-home and comfortable when we were away. From meet and greets to taster stays, Helen has made every effort to settle Vinnie in and move at his pace. Her knowledge and experience with dogs really shows and Vinnie was happy and content in their company and home which has been lovely to see.”
“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 🤣”
“This was the second time Michelle and her husband Graham have looked after our 2-year-old whippet, Walter and they were absolutely fantastic again. Walter has a few whippet quirks, but they handled him perfectly and made him feel right at home. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we collected him, it was obvious that he had been well cared for. We highly recommend them and will definitely ask them to look after Walter for us again.”

“Gloria did a superb job looking after our two cats. She was very thorough to meet their needs, and they warmed to her very quickly. We were very happy with her work, and we will happily recommend her cat sitting services. Thank you again!”
“Shunqi is really lovely and my cats loved her. She sent lots of photos each visit and kept me updated on how well they were eating, if they didn't feel like playing that day or if she had any concerns so I wasn't worried at all. My cats have also tended to sulk when I have left them with other people before but they seemed really happy when I got back. Will definately book again in future :)”
“Tara is so so lovely and was amazing looking after my cat, she communicated regularly, sent photos and updates and went above and beyond what she needed to do. Honestly couldn’t thank her enough and will 100% book again, I have one happy fur baby who usually sulks when I come back from a night away but he loved her! Thank you Tara 🤍”
“I honestly can’t thank Ana enough. She offered to meet before hand, was extremely communicative, sending multiple picture and video updates daily, I never had to ask how Jiji was doing! In the videos you could see Ana playing and laughing with Jiji, you could tell she genuinely adores animals and caring for them and I’ve never felt so trusting of someone looking after my fur baby. Jiji was so happy and loving when we came home, usually he has a little sulk for abandoning him first, but I could tell how happy and settled he was with Ana. Thank you so much, if I could give you 10 stars I would!”
“Sarah was brilliant - incredibly responsive and fantastic with the dogs. She put real care and attention into their needs during the drop in visits and I couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I’ve cared for family pets for many years and have attended an animal management course for animal welfare and behaviour, which included details of training animals and properly caring for a variety of different animals and pets. I have also volunteered at a dog kennels looking after dogs in kennels whilst their owners were away and I currently work at a dog groomers. I have learned to care for a variety of animals so can provide care for different pets. I am currently at college and have a job so I can fit pet care into anytime on weekends and after 6pm on weekdays. I can also provide pet care during bank holidays and any other time off I have. I can cater to different pets’ needs and follow specific instructions pet owners have for their pets to make sure they have the best care. I will only provide pet care for pets outside of my house as I have a dog and wouldn’t want pets to become stressed by this, also for the sake of my own dog’s wellbeing.
About: I have years of hands‑on experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities — confident, cuddly, shy, anxious, or independent. I understand how important routine is, so I make sure feeding, litter changes, and any special instructions are followed exactly. I’m patient with nervous cats and give them space to approach in their own time, while affectionate cats get plenty of fuss, playtime, and enrichment. You’ll receive clear updates, photos, and honest communication every visit so you always know how your cat is doing.
“Armish was a great sitter for our cats. Daily updates which is what we all needed. Cats were given treats, given play time and cuddles. Thank you again for your service will definitely be using again.”
About: I'm currently a student Occupational Therapist who is really missing my family's pets while I'm at uni! 🐾 I love animals and know how important they are as valued members of the family! As a teenager I volunteered for the Cats Protection League and would clean litter trays for people in my local area who couldn't do so themselves. I would often dogsit for neighbours, and have even looked after someone's pet frogs before! 🐾 I adapt to whatever style of care your pet needs - some pets value calm and slow paced interactions, and some pets seem to have unlimited amounts of energy! My goal is to keep your pet happy in a style that is closest to their normal. 🐾 I am a very clean person, who will send regular updates via text and video. I have a fully enhanced DBS, and solid references :) 🐾
About: I am genuinely just a cat lover, who wants to centre her life and career around as many cats as possible! I have level 2 pet first aid certificate under my belt. I am a very trustworthy and reliable person, im confident and experienced when it comes to cat care. I've always had a cat in my life from being a smalll child and cannot imagine not having my little moo by my side. I'm excited to meet many new cute faces and make sure all their needs are met.
About: I am a huge animal lover with professional training in animal care and hands-on experience working in catteries. I’ve looked after cats of all ages and personalities, so I’m confident caring for playful kittens, shy rescues, and older cats who need a gentler touch. I’m calm, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I treat every cat like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾💛
“Isabelle is a lovely young lady! She came for a visit before doing a few “drop ins” for me. She sent me photos and communicated well to make sure she knew exactly what my puppy needed when she came. Highly recommend her. 100% will be booking Isabelle again for drop ins / walks.”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I have had a Cane Corso and a French Bulldog. I am extremely responsible and treat all dogs I sit as my own. In the past year I took full time care of a French bulldog whilst his owner was at work. This included looking after him 7am - 5pm involving everything from feeding, walkies, playtime to bathing, brushing and sleepovers. My schedule is flexible as I work from home most of the week. I can also sit during the weekends, overnight or do stays when you go on a holiday. I always ensure maximum safety for my dogs. Depending on their personality, I remove objects they might chew / eat. I have them on the lead unless it is safe for them to be off and you give me prior permission. I ensure they have access to water at all times. I do not leave them alone at any time to ensure they are safe and are well taken care of.
About: I’ve had 3 cats in the past which have all sadly passed so spending time with your furry ones would mean the world and heal me in many ways☺️ My most recent cat was taken care of solely by me by feeding and changing the litter every day.
About: I have many years of experience looking after cats and am somewhat of a whisperer. I am yet to have a cat act towards me in a negative way. I work full-time remotely and am looking for car company as I am not a place where I can have my own furry friend yet (on a busy main road). I love spending time with all animals and find joy in looking after cats.

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I have previous experience owning and caring for two dogs. Although I do not currently have dogs, this experience has given me a strong understanding of dogs’ daily routines, behavior, and care needs. I am familiar with feeding schedules, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and providing companionship. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always prioritize each dog’s safety and comfort. I carefully follow owners’ instructions and adapt my care to suit different personalities and energy levels. I will treat every dog with kindness, respect, and genuine care. I am currently available 7 days a week . I am flexible with timings and happy to discuss specific schedules and arrangements based on your needs. I have a house with fenced garden, I provide a safe, calm, and caring home environment where pets are treated as part of the family. My home is secure, clean, and free from hazards, and pets are always supervised. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise, medication, and any special requirements.
“Piper was clearly very happy with Ian and their little pug. He sent me photos throughout the day and it was a relief to know she was okay, as that was the first time I’d left her with someone that wasn’t family. She’s been a few times now and is always excited when she arrives, she knows where she is! Ian’s got a large secure garden and Piper enjoys playing and sniffing. Their little pug is a sweetheart and she was happy having Piper in her house. I will continue to use Ian as my doggy daycare - Piper is very happy with him.”
“Anastasia looked after Polly whilst my partner and I were getting married. It was Polly's first time at daycare and looked to have been having a great time from the regular updates received throughout the day. I'm sure she will be happy to return.”
“Vanessa and her boys took excellent care of Nino. We have really good communication throguht out since we booked online until the day. Nino had a lovely time and we would trust Vanessa again for other days going back to York. Thank you very much!”
“Kay took great care of Freddie (a Frenchie) when he was booked in for daycare. He was taken for a walks and felt relaxed enough to have a snooze in the sun when he was there too! Kay went the extra mile to get to know Freddie and I received updates on how he was doing, which was appreciated. She was also very understanding when the car I was travelling in broke down, causing me to be later than planned. I’d recommend Kay and hope to book in again soon.”
“Lisa was fantastic with Pepper, treated her like family and kept our young excitable pup entertained all day. She slept for hours when she got home, and absolutely had the best day. I know Lisa puts the thoughts of the dogs in her care at the forefront of what she does and it really shows. Thank you Lisa”
“Zixuan was so friendly and welcoming. Her dog was also friendly towards Jeff, and he had such a nice time, and made himself at home. He went to the park and played with sticks, hus favourite past-time. When I collected him he was so relaxed, this made me feel happy knowing he was well looked after. Thank you so much 🙏”
“Kelsie was great. She even took the time to meet up for a little walk before hand to see how my dog was with her lovely border collie. There is a wonderful field just seconds from the house for walks. Highly recommend!”
“This lady obviously knows dogs and definitely knows cockerpoos. Norman had a fabulous day slept like a log when he got home. Fabulous set of photos and films throughout the day. I have no worries about leaving him for longer when he goes on his holidays. Thanks Monica you've taken a weight off our minds xx”
About: I love dogs and cats. From childhood, both myself and my husband have always had them as pets and our home would not be complete without one! We enjoy their companionship and caring for them, which we have many years of experience and we are trustworthy and reliable. We have a calm and relaxed home with a secure garden and have lots of lovely walks from our doorstep. Our pets are well socialised and accepting and we are all very much looking forward to welcoming your beloved pet into our home! I am at home during the day and at weekends and always make sure I take care of my own pets needs and so I would do exactly the same with all dogs that are staying with us. I would ensure I followed the owner’s instructions and I would keep them updated. I would keep a good routine, with feeding, making sure their pets food is fresh in clean bowls with access to fresh water. I would exercise them to suit their needs. I am happy to bathe, brush, clean teeth if they allow but I do not clip nails. I would give medication according to owner’s instructions. I would ensure harnesses, leads are secure before leaving on a walk and car restraints are secured before transporting. Pets are allowed on our chairs and sofas and beds and I would like them to feel safe, relaxed and comfortable. I can crate if required. I would give positive praise and attention, helping your pet to feel at home and relaxed as possible while staying with us.
“Ewan was great with my dog. I'd never had a dog sitter before and he reassured me because I was nervous to leave Nia with a stranger. I got sent lots of photos and details about what she was up to. She came back very happy and tired!”
“Joanne was amazing . Our Cavapoo Freddie and our sons Cockapoo went to Joanne for day care while we had a day out . We dropped them off and Joanne brought them home , they were both very well looked after . We’ll definitely use Joanne again.”
“Wonderful couple who made me feel I had chosen the perfect day care for Lando my amazing puppy. They sent photos and kept me posted on how his first day went and even went the extra mile to bring him home to me. Fantastic they are Landos first choice and mine too. Looking forward to any trips I might have now knowing he will be in excellent caring hands rather than home alone.”
About: I’m a friendly dog lover offering dog sitting, walking, and boarding. I grew up with dogs and have lots of hands-on experience with a range of breeds. I’m confident, calm, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, routines, and personalities. I also send regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is being cared for like one of my own! Now that I’ve bought a house, l really miss having a dog around to take on long walks, play with, and cuddle up with on the sofa. Whilst saving for my wedding, this felt like the perfect way to combine my free time with my genuine love for dogs 🐾 I’m available most days for boarding or daycare as I can choose which days I work from home. When I am working from home, rest assured your dog will still have company all day as I pop their bed next to me as I work, so that they can signal its belly scratch time whenever they want! On sunny days, i’ll work in the garden with the patio doors open so that they can soak up the sunshine and inspect my plants! ☺️ My garden is completely fenced in with no side access, so you won’t need to worry about your dogs getting anywhere they shouldn’t (I know they can sometimes try to be houdini!) I also have experience with dogs which don’t like other dogs and need that extra bit of planning and dog awareness on walks to ensure all dogs involved remain as calm and stress free as possible. So if you do have a dog which you would rather doesn’t come into contact with any other dogs (I know the feeling) please rest assured I am confident and comfortable with this and I just require that they wear a harness for safety reasons :)
“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 :)”
“Lesley was wonderful, thankyou so much for looking after Buster. We needed day care to attend a funeral in York at last minute. Buster was settled as soon as he saw Lesley when I dropped him off and a very happy chappy when I picked him up. He would clearly have stayed with her without hesitation. Great to get a fully detaiked report on his day too. Wouldn't hesitate to book Lesley again.”
About: My husband and I have looked after dogs for a number of years. These have varied, from puppies to adults, small to large, as well as high energy, confident to more nervous rescue dogs. What their stay looks like, is shaped around the needs of the dogs, their current routines, enrichment activities, exciting walks and any specific requests from their owners. We are passionate about creating an environment where a dog can thrive and develop in a home away from home. We have our own gorgeous pooch called Bonnie. She is very relaxed around other dogs, as she has socialised with dogs both inside and outside the home since we adopted her in 2024. She's very independent and calm in the house, but loves to explore with her fellow dogs when out and about on a walk. We also volunteer at a dog shelter, where we walk, train and lead enrichment activities with Romanian Rescue dogs. Through this experience working with a brilliant dog trainer and head of the charity, we understand that every dog is totally different, therefore, their care plan and routine need to reflect as much and be tailored to their personalities. As a result, we are confident with rescue dogs or those who are anxious and less confident. We typically take the dogs out for a morning walk, which will be roughly an hour. I work full time from home, which allows me to be home all day with the dogs. We will then have a shorter second walk, with playtime and enrichment thrown in! We have a fenced garden, as well as a field two minutes from our house, where dogs have plenty of space to run and play as they wish!

“We used Katie for a walk as a way of introducing our dogs before she looks after our dog for a weekend. There were no problems at all, her communication was great and we couldn’t be happier with our choice.”

I’m also available for dog walking and day care. We can offer a fenced and safe garden, comfortable sofa and plenty of time for cuddles, company, walks and playtime to all the dogs that stay with us. Our home is very dog friendly and full of treats and toys. We live local to the river and multiple green spaces for a variety of walks. Our family dog, Willow, is 5 years old, she’s an independent miniature poodle. I am happy to arrange a meet and greet before any booking if you would like to see how your dog gets on. I can also easily accommodate separate walks for your dog if you prefer. I want to make your pet feel like this is their home from home so if they have any special requests to make them feel comfortable then please feel free to ask 😁 I’m back from university so I’m available most days, including weekends. I will also be taking care of my own dog when my parents are at work, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I can easily accommodate a dog crate, if your dog is happiest sleeping there. I have a medium-sized fenced garden and live close to Bootham park and the river for nice walks. Your dog is welcome on the sofa and my priority is making them welcome and comfortable.
About: I’ve recently lost my beloved 13 year old dog and I would like to keep up with dog walking and dog cuddles. I have 2 granddogs that I look after regularly. I am retired so have lots of time available. I live in a quiet village setting with nice off road walks and open spaces and dog paths. I have a fenced large garden. I have plenty of indoor space with no other pets or children. I am able to crate dogs or not if required.
“Isabelle is always on time and takes my dog on various different walks locally. She’s very trustworthy and flexible with her availability, even when I need to book last minute due to work commitments. My dog loves his walks and it’s a great peace of mind knowing he is so well looked after. Thank you :)”
“Our dog adores Liam, always happy to see him. Liam brings with home many years of living with dogs and academic qualifications, not only is he giving our dog the daytime exercise and attention he needs, but also experience on how to raise and train a puppy. Thank you Liam”
About: Me and my wife Katy are a dog-loving family with real, hands-on experience — not just with easy dogs. Our beagle Oscar (12) has been with us for 6 years. He's a committed food thief, so we're well used to keeping counters, bins, and pockets secure, and he's trained in sit, down, stand, leave it, recall, and roll over. Our husky Amber (4) has been with us for 3 years — she's an attention seeker, but that doesn't faze us; we know dogs like her just need someone happy to give them the engagement they're after. We usually walk our own dogs at lunchtime and after tea, but we're happy to adapt to whatever routine suits your dog best — whether that's their usual feeding times, walk schedule, or any specific habits they're used to. Both our own dogs are on specific food regimes, so we're used to weighing out meals precisely and giving supplements on schedule — it's something we look for in other carers too, so you can trust us to follow your instructions diligently, right down to the last gram. We also have a 6ft fenced garden for safe off-lead time. I'm currently between jobs, which means I have plenty of flexibility and availability during the week. Pet care fits easily into my day — whether it's a lunchtime walk, an evening routine, or being on hand throughout the day for feeding, play, and company. I'm not juggling a 9-5, so I can give your dog consistent attention and stick closely to whatever schedule they're used to. In my own home, dogs benefit from a secure 6ft fenced garden for safe off-lead time, a settled routine, and the same care I give my own two dogs — Oscar (12, beagle) and Amber (4, husky). My own dogs sleep in the kitchen overnight, but I'm happy to adapt sleeping arrangements to suit your dog's needs and what they're used to at home. I pay close attention to feeding, weighing out meals precisely and giving supplements on schedule if needed, and I'm happy to follow any specific instructions around diet, medication, or habits. For walks, I usually go out at lunchtime and after tea, but I'm flexible and happy to fit around what your dog is used to. In a pet owner's home, I follow the same principles — sticking to their normal routine, feeding schedule, and any training cues they respond to (like sit, down, leave it, or recall), so the visit feels as familiar and low-stress as possible for them.
About: I have had pets my whole life, and looking after them has been a big part of my life growing up. I have been called a “dog whisperer” by my friends, as even dogs who are normally wary seem to be comfortable around me. I dogsit for friends and family all the time, being the trusted family member as I just love dogs and understand them so well. I can look after dogs of all shapes and sizes, with experience of all behaviours, including reactivity and dogs who pull. I am responsible and compassionate and will give your pet all the love. I am a student and I work part time, so I have lots of time in the day and night to fuss over your pup and play with them. I will prioritise your dog’s comfort, routine, and safety above all else. I’ll make sure everything feels calm, consistent, and reassuring while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely—whether that’s around feeding, walking, training, or cuddles—so your dog feels as settled as possible. I’m experienced with dogs of all personalities and behaviours, including those who are reactive or nervous, and I always approach them with patience, empathy, and gentle care. While staying in your home, I’ll treat the space with complete respect, keeping things clean and leaving everything just as I found it. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pup is happy, safe, and well loved.
“Kjempefornøyd med Helene,? hun var med på tur og ble kjent før hun passer hundene i mitt hjem. Hun er flink med mine 3 store hunder og tydelig vant med hund, leste de godt. Jeg fikk oppdatering og bilder daglig. Hundene virket fornøyde og rolige når jeg kom hjem. Jeg kunne se at de hadde hatt det bra ??”

“Shunqi had the best time with Goldie for the weekend and looked after her wonderfully, sending us lots of videos and pictures of her! It was lovely to see she was having a great time, we’ll book her in again!”
“Sharron is a lovely person, very caring and just perfect for our much-cherished Labrador. She made him feel at home and he seemed very happy, which was important to us. Highly recommended.”
“Anastasia couldn’t have been more welcoming for our dog. Ahead of the day her communication was excellent and she was super accommodating to our circumstances. Our dog had a lovely day, the pictures she sent showed how much fun he had! I would recommend Anastasia to anyone!”
“Chrissy has been amazing looking after our doggo for 6 nights. She kept us updated daily with photos and we returned to a relaxed and very at home pup when we went to pick her up. Would use again and can highly recommend.”
“Paul is very friendly and knowledgeable. Chip had a wonderful time with him. I felt that Chip was made to feel part of the family. I was kept well informed about what Chip was doing and how he was getting on. I would thoroughly recommend Paul to anyone.”
“Extremely kinda and respectful sitter, reassured me to no end with my dogs stay. This was his first time away from home and he was in excellent hands. Cannot recommend Charlie enough!”
“Excellent communication before and during the stay. A meet up was scheduled before the stay which was a good change to ask questions and check that our dog got in with them, which he did! Daily updates and photos were sent which was great! He came back exhausted which is always a good sign! Thanks, would definitely use again.”
“Absolutely fantastic from the get go! We popped in to introduce our dog to Georgia and Greg and he instantly looked at home. We were delighted with the daily updates and we feel as though our dog, Milo, settled in very quickly and was looked after like he was their own. This is the first time we have left Milo with new people and the first time we have used Rover. We will definitely be leaving Milo with Georgia and Greg in the future!”
“Thank you to Lesley and Phil who took great care of Betty we will not hesitate to let betty stay with them again. They are very friendly and professional and kept in touch regularly we loved receiving messages and photos on how she was doing lovely people 😊”
“We are so pleased to have found Helen and Andy on our doorstep. Our dog Vinnie had grown quite fearful of his kennels and we were determined to find him somewhere he could be more at-home and comfortable when we were away. From meet and greets to taster stays, Helen has made every effort to settle Vinnie in and move at his pace. Her knowledge and experience with dogs really shows and Vinnie was happy and content in their company and home which has been lovely to see.”
“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 🤣”
“Ewan was great and Dexter took to him straight away on the meet and greet. So much so that he didn't even look back when I dropped him off. He was very contented on his return and Ewan gave regular updates and pics which were reassuring. We will definitely be sending Dexter to visit again. Thank you Ewan!”
“We’re delighted with Aimee’s care for our 2 dogs. They’ve been looked after with love and clearly have been as comfy with Aimee as they are at home. Would absolutely recommend and book again, thanks so much!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
