We are so so thankful to Laurie and her lovely daughter Alice for taking such good care of Cooper for the weekend. Laurie took cooper on a very last minute request after we were let down by another boarding service. Cooper warmed to Laurie and her daughter instantly and we cannot thank them enough for taking such good care of him after a particularly stressful event. Laurie sent alot of updates to reassure us Cooper was getting on well. Cooper came home very happy yesterday which is a sign he had a great time!! We will never be able to thank them enough. We would highly recommend Laurie and her lovely daughter to other dog owners ⭐️

Julie is a god send. She looked after our two munchkins for 5 nights while we attended my sisters wedding abroad. Bella is not well at the minute and Julie went above and beyond to make sure she was as comfortable as can be even coming up with new tricks to get medication into her and making her up lovely fresh food when she wouldn't eat the food we left for her. Anyone thinking of getting someone to mind their dogs should definitely contact Julie. They will get treated like royalty and get lovely walks on the beach and a whole lot of love and snuggles ❤️
