Dog Sitters in Beer

Very reliable and friendly dog walker and boarder. Lee provides an excellent pick up and drop off service. Our border terrier is always excited to see Lee and clearly enjoys his days out and overnight stays.

Took great care of our precious dog Freddie and our house for two weeks and we had great communication from start to finish with Running Duck which put us at ease. We were kept up to date with photos and updates which was so lovely. He especially loved his walks and playtime with Glenn, and we could see they had really bonded. They really do look after your pet and home as their own. The house was kept safe, clean and garden watered too which was so appreciated. Don’t hesitate to book Running Duck for your next trip away you and your pets will be very glad you did. Thanks again Glenn and Mandy for everything.

Another brilliant house/dog sit! Thank you so much. We relax so much more knowing our pup is having his own adventures with Jenny and George. They are the perfect house guests and incredibly caring and trustworthy. See you again next year! Xxxxx

Having both retired, we planned a once in a lifetime 6 week trip to Australia, but were very anxious about leaving our pets, particularly our dear dog Barley. Jenny juggled schedules in order to fit around our dates, so that Glenn and Mandy were able to cover the whole of the time. They took excellent care of our home, our cat Chip's, and our precious boy, communicating with us regularly via WhatsApp, attaching pics and videos to reassure us.

Glenn & Mandy were excellent pet sitters. They visited us before our trip to meet us and our two spaniels. While we were away they kept in touch with photos & videos. We returned to two happy dogs who had been very well looked after. We have booked Glenn & Mandy again for next year and Jenny for our autumn trip. Highly recommended.

Instantly took to everyone concerned at the Running Duck Pet Services. Jenny is incredible at communicating and arranging cover, and Glenn and Mandy are fabulous with all our pets. We see the delight when they arrive on our Pugs faces, and it's non stop love, care, attention and frolics from the minute they arrive. We are kept up to date with pictures and communication daily whilst we are away. The Running Ducks are our absolute favourites, and they are now part of the family. All of them are such lovely genuine people. Highly recommend, although don't book them up too much please, as we need them free to cover our pets!!!

We would highly recommend Glen and Mandy. Our English Foxhound is a rescue and can get worried when new people first come to the house, so we were a little apprehensive at someone coming to stay. Glen and Mandy kindly came over one morning before the holiday and in no time Buddy was wagging his tail and Glen was his new best friend. From then on, we felt confident that Buddy would be very happy with them and we were right. Just back from holiday and Buddy has had a great week, with lovely walks, games and being spoilt and is his happy, relaxed self. Thank you for understanding our boy.

Glenn and Mandy looked after our 2 dogs and cat for 10 days. One of our dogs takes medication twice daily so it was important to us to feel comfortable with the people looking after them. Straight away Glenn put us at ease, he discussed everything we would need and reminded us of things we had not even considered, ie informing vets etc. We got daily updates from Mandy, enough to ensure our minds were at ease but timed perfectly so as not to bombard us during our time away. Our plants are in better condition than when we left due to Glenn's green fingers. Cannot recommend them enough, and have already booked next year's holiday!

We recently nipped off for some sun, leaving our two Lardy Labs in the very capable hands of Running Duck. This is our second trip since moving to Wiltshire and because Glenn was already booked, George came up from Dartmoor to attend to their every need 😆 We got regular photos of their hikes and chill out sessions, but we never worry about them when away as we know how much love and attention they are showered with. The house is always clean and tidy on our return, which is an added bonus. We would not hesitate to recommend Running Duck for not only your Fur Babies, but your home too.

This was the first time we had left our 2 year old lab overnight and we were apprehensive, mainly due to her suffering occasional seizures and needing daily meds, but from the start Jenny was great, she put our minds at ease. Communication was clear and responses speedy. Skye warmed to Glenn quickly and we have felt confident in booking a holiday for next year, so thank-you Running duck services, we would highly recommend Glenn & Mandy :)

Another wonderful experience. Able to enjoy a lovely family holiday knowing our home, and most precious family animal members were safe and in good hands. Glen sent us lovely picture updates and kept our entire menagerie happy. Thank you.

Thank you Debbie for looking after our much loved cats whilst we were on holiday. You did a fab job, they were very happy and well fed when we came home. Highly recommend and will continue to use you when we going on our holidays.

Wonderful service for our dogs two week holiday. Friendly people with loads of care and walks.

I collected my Milo & Tess today after 10 days in theseDrum Kennels, I was met with waggy tails, links and kisses so I know they have had a good time and been well looked after. Thank you to Morag and the team. I would highly recommend them.

Looks after our dog extremely well, very happy with Drum Kennels. Already booked in for next year .

Morag and the team are brilliant and so friendly. Our cat Hattie loves her stay here in the small Cattery where she can look out and listen to the radio 📻 if she wants to. Highly recommend 👌 🐱🐈 …

We just needed a place for our dog Rosy for one night as we attended a wedding. Drum were recommended to us by other local kennels who had no spaces. The kennels looked clean and spacious and Rosy obviously enjoyed her stay, making a big fuss of one of the staff as we left.

Drum kennels Morag and the staff we met could not be more accommodating. Ceasar came back happy and well looked after. He has allergies and is raw feed with lots of little extras. Which they were happy to do. They listened to all we had to say to keep him safe and clear and we ard happy to say he came back to us with no flare ups. This in itself is proof of how well he was cared for while we were away. As we are well aware at home how easy it can happen. I would recommend anyone to use Drum kennels and give a 5+rating. Caesar will definitely be staying with you again next time we are away. Thanks Dawn Phil & Caesar.

We use Drum Kennels fairly regularly, this latest occasion they were good enough to take Splodge and Zephy at short notice. Always very friendly and clearly love having their "guests" return.... 😀😎😀 …

I highly recommend Drum. I have a nervous little dog that struggles with separation but at Drum they take excellent care of her. It is very clean and well maintained and the staff are lovely. Definitely 5 stars 🌟 …

Everyone was so friendly.can't fault them, My cat had to go to the vet but nothing was to much trouble.Can't thank them enough.

My cat was very happy here shes normally abit scared off strangers but she came out her shell with them will def use in future wouldnt go anywere else now and highly reccomened as they care so much for them ! Thanks guys lily loved it

Always feel confident leaving my dogs with Morag and her team as I know how well they are looked after.

I have known Kim since she was very small, and her loving caring nature makes her the perfect choice, I have complete trust and confidence in her ability to care for your furry friends. Wishing you all the best in your new business adventure 😍😍xxx

I gave my Bichon a doggy care day with Kim. He was very happy there. He had 2 walks and lots of love and cuddles. I have booked him in again next week.. Thanks Kim..

Cookie enjoys going! Great service!

Fantastic pet care!! Pete and Ana are truly wonderful people. They care about your animals as if they were their own! I can go away anywhere in the world for any length of time knowing that my pets are safe, comfy and pampered! One of my dogs is wary of men. Pete is working with her to build her confidence and he is so patient with her. My other dog has a history of absconding, Pete and Ana can read his body language and get him on his lead when and if necessary. They always try and cater to my short notice requests as well. I really can't think of anything negative to say at all. They are fantastic!!

Pete and Ana are fantastic with our two Border Terriers. They are extremely professional but more importantly they love the dogs and the dogs love them. There aren't many other people we trust to look after them. Highly recommended.

Simply THE most professional, considerate and thoughtful dog walkers. We have a slightly problematic hound and Pete and Ana bend over backwards to ensure he is accommodated and they do the same with every other client. I don't know what we would do without them. Huge recommendation from us and all our friends who have switched from other companies to Pawficient. Thank you!

Pete and Anna ........or The God and Goddess as our dogs think of them. Our little'un would go home with them given half a chance. Did actually try once. Knowledgeable, lovely, trustworthy, reliable, what more can you ask?

We have used this service for a while now & have absolutely no problems with how Pete & Ana care for our dogs while in their care...Asha is a large breed dog & has had her issues but with the care & patience she's received by being in their care, she's come on leaps & bounds ! Highly recommend this service!

George likes Peter and Ana better than me. Love the daily report card you guys leave. Thank you for taking such good care of our little boy!!!!! (He's a Great Dane)

Outstanding service received from Pawficient, very professional and my two dogs are well looked after and look forward to your regular walks. I highly recommend this service to anyone.

Excellent service!

I have lost track of the number of years my dog has been cared for by Jenny and the amazing Walking Woofs team. This is the second of my dogs I have entrusted to the Walking Woofs team. Throughout those years my dog has been cared for with unconditional kindness and utmost consideration and she has been much loved, like their own. She’s been walked 4 or 5 times a week, had a small stint at doggy daycare and she’s also been to Jenny and a host boarder to cover a few holidays. My dog is a bit of diva and has some quirky ways, but all the walkers/hosts have taken the time to know her little ways and give her the love and affection that I have come to expect from the team. In addition to the exceptional care and consideration afforded to the dogs, the team extend this to the owners too. Jenny has worked incredibly hard to develop this business and as I have watched it grow, I have seen all of the measures she consistently puts in place to ensure the dogs are in the best possible hands, while having the time of their lives. And they most definitely do have the time of their lives. I think the awards she has won speak for themselves. I feel grateful to know that my now senior dog, with the challenges that ageing brings, is in the best hands. Jenny and the team will adapt her walks to suit her requirements whether that be a group walk, a walk around the block or a sofa day and cuddles. I go to work safe in the knowledge that her life is enriched thanks to the team. Keep up the amazing work, your loyal owners and canine friends love you loads and are grateful for the love and care you give.

We use walking woods for daycare and boarding of our 2 beagles. They are absolutely fantastic. They treat the dogs like family and we have peace of mind that our dogs are safe and happy whilst they are with them. Our dogs are always so excited to go to daycare each week and we love seeing the photos of what they have been up too! The whole team are amazing! We highly recommend them!

Jenifer came to the rescue at last minute for us as we were new to the area and the dog walker we booked through an internet portal let us down. Grand parents were animal sitting for us but long walks couldn’t be done by them so a walker was needed, they said Buster cried for Jenifer everytime she dropped him back off obviously because he had had such an amazing time with her. Many thanks again Jenifer we will be booking again.

Highly recommend Jenny and her team, they go above and beyond, providing exceptional dog care, whilst also doing their very best to be flexible to support the needs of owners. I have used all 3 of their services and my dog always comes home well exercised, happy and content. It is very reassuring to know that she can be left in safe and trusting hands!

Short version: Absolutely fantastic! Detailed version: I followed a few companies before we got our dog, and Walking Woofs quickly became our top choice because we could see from their social media they really care about the dogs in their care. They're not just dog sitters/walkers/guardians, they know about the dogs, they do a range of activities, they keep them engaged, and they educate on dog care - I was sold when I spotted a post about dogs gaining winter weight, and it wasn't just a notice, it was explaining how to check and monitor your dogs weight yourselves. That level of care for the dogs is exactly what we wanted. They have exceeded expectations - our dog's favourite day is any day with the team either daycare or boarding (she hasn't done walks yet, but we know multiple others that go out with them, and they all sing their praises). She runs straight to them whenever we're near, and at the end of the day is ready to go home and relax (literally passes out on the sofa, is too tired to run up the stairs to the house, it's wonderful). The team are friendly, flexible and approachable. Walking Woofs are not a company, they are a pack that we are now part of and I am so grateful for them!

I would highly recommend Walking Woofs to anyone! They make me feel at ease with how accommodating they are even with a challenging pup. Even when they have no spaces left for boarding when we go away they have always found a caring replacement who would! Wouldn’t take our dog anywhere else! 🐶🤍 …

We have been delighted at the way our Tibetan Terrier has been looked after and cared for by all members of the WW team. Every Time we collect her from day care we can tell she has had a fun day with the other dogs and is very happy. We have valued getting to know the staff too, everyone is very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and caring toward both pets and their owners

The ultimate in dog boarding and doggy day care services! We are so happy to have found such a fantastic provider. Jenny and family are kind, considerate, knowledgable and competent. They go out of their way to help us out and we couldn’t be more grateful for the top class service they provide. Our dog absolutely loves going to stay and seems a little disappointed to come home! We are confident he is very well looked after and are always kept up to date with pictures and videos. We can’t thank WW enough for their help over the last year.

A great place for your dog to be loved and cared for as part of the family. Daycare is great for your dog to socialise safely, have the best play date, and quiet time after all that running around.

Day care is absolutely great! I take 2 of my dogs and they have been amazing in supporting getting them used to other dogs! Couldn’t recommend enough!

We have used Barking Mad with Lucy and Paul for Barney several times. They are punctual, polite, friendly and efficient. We get updates and feedback from Barney’s “foster parents”. Thank goodness for Barking Mad as we couldn’t put him in Kennels and he seems to be a popular guest!

Never usually one to leave reviews however I feel I have exhausted all other communication and feel I have fair grounds to share my experience. I enquired with Lucy regarding boarding as I wanted a safe place and confidence that my babies would be looked after. Lucy was very efficient in getting back in touch and getting a visit booked to come out and see the girls, she even came out on a Sunday (due to cancelling the first appointment due to illness) which I thought was very kind. We went through everything we could and when Lucy left I felt confident I had finally found somewhere to leave my babies when I needed to go away and was unable to take them with me. However after that visit it became almost impossible to get any sort of response from Lucy. She came to do her visit on the 18th February & said she would follow up via email within the next 24 hours with the report for me to check and sign off. I chased Lucy for this 3 days later and got no reply (I could also see she was indeed reading my messages due to read receipt’s being turned on). I then chased another 7 days later, again Lucy read it and did not respond. Finally 11 days later I got an email response (granted Lucy explained she had a couple of things going on personally which I understood and decided to give her the benefit of the doubt). We exchanged a few emails to change a couple of things on the report and also decide on dates to get my babies booked in for a trial, I had one more question to ask which I emailed over before I made the £55 registration fee. I emailed Lucy on the 5th April these enquiries, no response. I chased a response on the 11th April again nothing. I decided to message Lucy via text message to just see if she received my email one day later as I was eager to get everything sorted and booked knowing how busy they can get and Lucy finally responded to say she was out at the time but would respond later that afternoon in which I appreciated and waited patiently. 3 days later again no response so I chased, Lucy yet again read and ignored the message. 1 week later again I chased and low and behold I am still left on read to the day. I have now decided I no longer wish to use Barking Mad Services due to the loss in confidence in their business I have lost faith and confidence that I would actually have any communication at all whilst my babies are away or any sort of updates. Especially since there is a huge lack in communication during the first stage of business. I am a business owner myself and understand life can get in the way however I do make a conscious effort to ensure all enquiries and customers are responded too within 72 hours minimum or at-least keep them in the loop if I know my communication may be reduced. This is the bare minimum and certainly isn’t asking a lot. This is a shame because I thought I had found somewhere finally that was affordable and caring however the poor communication and being ignorant by clearly leaving your customers on read and on numerous occasions has lost you the business, going forward I would turn your read receipt’s off if I was you as this has of course been infuriating to be so clearly ignored.

We have used Barking Mad a number of times now to care for our dog and have always been extremely happy with the service. It is odd passing your much- loved pet into the hands of a stranger, but Lucy and Paul have gone out of their way to personalise it as much as possible and, with both the host homes that our dog has stayed in, we have felt that they know and understand his needs very well. This is based on the thorough paperwork beforehand, which is reviewed each time, as well as Lucy's skilled pairing of dog with host. We feel confident that our dog is being very well cared for and wholeheartedly recommend Barking Mad to others. S and G

We required urgent dog care due to a bereavement. Lucy and Paul were very efficient and quickly had everything in place for our dog Stewart. He had a wonderful time and the photos we received whilst away were very reassuring as was the written feedback we were given when Stewart was returned. We would have no hesitation in recommending Barking Mad and would like to thank Lucy and Paul for all their help and support.

We are so delighted with the service provided by Lucy & Paul, ensuring our young Cocker Spaniel "girls", Jillie & Kara were placed with the right hosts, Lynne and Ray. Clearly, the girls had a wonderful time, and we knew as soon as they came home, how well they had been looked after - thank you Lynne and Ray.We have already booked next years holiday, knowing the "girls" will have a home from home holiday, in every way!!

Always reliable pick up and drop off service. Friendly service with great hosts who provide a "second home". We never worry about our dog whilst we're away. We know she'll be looked after by the hosts as well as we would and we get youtube videos to prove it, which is very reassuring when you're a long way away.

Fantastic support and service for my dog when we need her looked after - she always looks forward to seeing Lucy when she gets picked up and she obviously gets well looked after ☺️
