Kleo was absolutely amazing. We were nervous to leave our beloved Maisie for the first time but we shouldn’t have been. From start to finish, Kleo was brilliant. She sent us pictures regularly, brought Maisie on lots of walks and was so kind and affectionate to our dog. Maisie had a great time. We really couldn’t recommend Kleo enough. So kind and attentive.

Stephen is a really nice, genuine person and super knowledgeable about dogs and their needs. It was lovely having the meet and greet prior to taking the booking as this put my mind completely at ease and i knew our dogs would be in safe capable hands and well looked after. Our two dogs stayed with Stephen for two nights and days. They were both really happy around Stephen and enjoyed the meet and greet with Fiadha. Willlow our female sighthound had a blast and she is usually really shy around males at first,as a rescue she tends to be cautious but she was so happy to see Stephen when we came to drop them off it really was a relief, her tail was wagging away. Our male dog Reggie was the same so happy to see Stephen again and even happier to meet all his new female friends. To see how happy and at ease both dogs were before and after pick up is all i needed to know they were in good hands. I would use Stephen again with ease knowing that my dogs are well taken care of.

I can't recommend TJ as dog minder enough! He was great with our dog Nala! She was really happy and so were we. He kept us posted with pictures taken from walks and in the house. It was 3 weeks long holiday so we were bit hesitant at first because we never left her with anyone for so long but turned out to be great experience and we will keep getting back to TJ for dog sitting. Thanks so much TJ and your dog Everett of course :)

Harini and her husband took great care of Molly even though they had another dog to mind as well, and the two did not get along well at first. They dealt with the situation professionally, and Molly still got all the attention, play, and walk that she needed. She was knackered afterwards. Harini kept me updated as well throughout the day. Very satisfied with the service and will be asking for Harini's help in the future. Thank you
