Charity is capable and reliable and did a great job caring for my dogs. My older dog was sick days before I left on my trip. Charity was undaunted by all the special instructions and was able to get him to take his pills. Both dogs were calm and happy to see me on my return. She spent a lot of time outdoors letting the dogs exercise, play and swim. Charity left the house very clean, did laundry, dishes, brought mail and trash can, more than was asked of her. She sent daily updates letting me know how the dogs were doing. I was reassured and able to enjoy my time away knowing the dogs were in good hands. Charity was very easy to work with and I would be happy to have her back to care for my dogs and home anytime!
If we could give Jerry and Sylvia a 10 we would. They were absolutely wonderful and a delight to get to know. They left our home spotless and washed the sheets and towels before we returned home. Our puppies were well taken care of and bathed before we returned. We highly recommend them for a sit and hope they will come visit us again!
We could not have been happier with Victoria. She is an animal whisperer for sure. When we returned from our trip, our dog seemed so happy and relaxed.... and well groomed. The house was exactly as we had left it. Victoria is top notch straight A's.
The home was absolutely incredible in just about the most ideal spot in the city, just quiet enough but with everything you could want right around the corner, parking, and great access to public transit, not to mention the wonderful park right in the backyard! The view from the apartment was lovely and the apartment itself had everything we could have needed to have a wonderful stay. The time just flew by! Marco is the absolute sweetest dog, and we already miss him so much! Don’t let his size fool you, he is an incredibly gentle, sweet, and loving boy. He is very low energy but is great on a walk. He doesn’t pull at all. He will respect all of your belongings and food and won’t eat or chew anything he’s not supposed to. He’s also just incredibly smart! If he jumps up on something he’s not supposed to and you tell him to get off but also to go somewhere else instead like a place where you put a dog blanket for him to sit next to you then he will completely understand what you are saying and do what you ask right away. Most of all he just has very kind eyes and a gentle soul that touched us very deeply in our short time together. Beckett was also great at being responsive, leaving clear instructions for us, being flexible, and answering any questions we had. The apartment was in great shape when we arrived with our bed and towels all set out for us. Beckett and Beau gave us everything we needed to have an amazing and successful stay and we are very thankful to them for picking us to watch their lovely home and wonderful pup!
Goose is a lovely little cat, friendly and sweet and curls up on the end of the bed with you at night. She really was a pleasure to look after ❤️ Frances communication was great and the house and location were perfect for a lovely weekend sit, thanks very much and would be more than happy to sit again 😊

Our dog Sophie spent all of her holidays, several each year, with Jane over some 11+ years. She loved going there and got on very well in the company of Jane's three dogs. We now have a new puppy of six months and hoping Jane will take her for puppy days when she is a little older. Jane has always sent photographs showing what your dog is doing which is very reassuring.
This weekend was the first time Izzy had stayed at Happy Pets - excellent service from a very caring lady. I have booked for end of July already!
In 2010 Jane started helping our family by looking after our lovely Labrador Pippa. Pippa was an anxious dog but Jane worked her magic, slowly gaining her trust increasing her length of stay from 1 hour to overnight and even one holiday of 3 weeks! Jane loves all the dogs as if they were her own. It's not just the walks and feeding , Jane actively interacts with the dogs during the day playing games and having fun. Sadly our Pippa died and now we have Molly, a rescue with issues! So once again Jane is slowly building the bond between them. Jane has so much experience and knowledge of dog behaviour and has given helpful advice in training Molly. Dogs that get to stay at Jane's are indeed lucky dogs and do have A Happy Pet Holiday.
Found Jane and her business Happy Pet Holidays through the Good Dog Guide and so pleased I did! She has a deep understanding of dogs and provides a home environment where you can feel confident that your dog will be well looked after. She sent us some photos and info during our week trip and you could tell when we went to pick him up and he had had a happy holiday too! Thank you Jane from very happy customers (dog and family) xx
I was going away for 4 nights and luckily found Jayne to look after my 7yr old Multipoo. I had an initial meet up at Jayne’s home followed by a half day trial to test the compatibility of our dogs which went very well so both Jayne and I were then sure a short term stay would work. I found Jayne to be calm, friendly and welcoming who clearly offers a loving environment for dog care by having them as one of her own in her home which is exactly what I was looking for. On my return, my dog was very happy and relaxed after being on long walks(5k) during her stay and Jayne took her time to give me feedback which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend Jayne for any dog care you require and can vouch you won’t be disappointed with the loving and safe care your dog will receive.
My labrador Winnie has been enjoying holidays with Jane for many years now. When the car pulls up she instantly recognises where she is and gets so exited! She loves Jane and we can enjoy our time away knowing that the dog is happy and well cared for. The photo updates are very welcome and add to our peace of mind. I'm very happy to recommend Happy Pets Holidays.
We have left our little doggy Veuvie with Jane a few times and she has had a wonderful time. Jane takes the dogs multiple walks a day, which Veuvie loved. She also has a great garden which is perfect for the dogs to walk in and out. Jane is amazing with dogs. Veuvie absolutely loves her and now gets so excited when she realizes she is going to stay. Can’t recommend Jane enough. She is so helpful and extremely caring with dogs.
Jane kindly looked after our 2 year old Vizsla, Indi, for two weeks in September. Indi was very comfortable and at home with Jane, and her dog, Daisy. We were kept up to date with photos and video clips, and when I went to pick Indi up they clearly had bonded, which was lovely to see, and so reassuring. I have every confidence in Jane, and when we go away again, I shall have no hesitation in booking Indi at Happy Pets Holidays. Jane, thank you so much.
Jane looked after our 6 year old Labrador Rufus at very short notice when we had to be away for a few days. I can thoroughly recommend her services. We have already booked him in again for later this year as we will require more help.
We wanted someone to look after our two dogs whilst we were on holiday. Luckily, Jane had availability and the dogs could not have been happier. When we returned they were very pleased to see us but really didn’t want to leave Jane!
We first came across Ingrid and Kate when personal circumstances and a couple of unweildy crutches mean't we needed a little help looking after our 2 yr old Irish Setter! Having never needed pet care services in the past we were a little unsure what to expect and of course that we were trusting someone we'd never met before with the little furry grenade that had so quickly become the centre of our universe. We needed'nt have had any concerns and within the course of a couple of days, which included an initial visit to meet and great and her first walk with the group, it was clear that she was in the best possible hands and was really enjoying adventure and high times with her other, new, four-legged friends. We've since explored a whole range of services DPC provide; walks, day care, home visits and evening drop-ins! We've been so lucky to find Ingrid and Kate. The Bean clearly loves them and we absolutely love what they do and now can't imagine what it was like before they came along. Even more so lately as within a very short space of time the Bean was laid very low following some hefty surgery for such a young thing. With tyical gusto she's bounced back but what has been absolutely amazing has been the way that Ingrid and Kate have been so accommodating and in particualr helping us with the Bean's recovery whilst she been convalescing. We could'nt recommend Ingrid and Kate highly enough. Both for us as owners but particualrly for the Bean they provide just the most amazing service, a home from home on day visits and as a bonus are both wonderful, wonderful people too (also not forgetting Reuben who's doing a cracking job reinforcing the Bean's paw work!). Keep it up guys, awesome job. Steve, Nicky and of course the Bean.
Ingrid and Kate have been walking my dog Merlin every week for nearly a year now. I think they are absolutely brilliant, and Merlin agrees. As does Munro, my partner's dog. The dogs love them, and enjoy every walk. Both Kate and Ingrid clearly care for the dogs, give a debrief after the walk, and do everything they can to fit in with our wishes.
I cannot recommend these people highly enough. Kate provided a thoroughly professional, decent, well priced service. Our cats were looked after better than we look after them ourselves and we were given regular updates and sent videos almost every day. We arrived back to happy cats and our home just as we had left it. Thank you so much. We will always use you in the future.
Kate and Ingrid are fantastic at looking after our cat Baggy when we go away. They are incredibly professional and it's a great peace of mind to know that she is being left in such good hands. We can't thank you, or recommend you highly enough!
Bertie gets so excited when Kate and Ingrid come to collect him. He gets a great walk every day and they are really flexible if he needs a little more time with them. I really appreciate that whilst I’m at work he is having fun and being well looked after.
I would highly recommend Ingrid and Kate - our dog Otis absolutely loves spending the day with them and it is so reassuring to know he is having a fun and stimulating time with kind people who really care about him. Particularly love the ‘pupdates’ from walks etc - so nice to see him enjoying himself! Total peace of mind when we’re both working. Thank you for everything!
Kate and Ingrid are great and Max always comes back from his walks happy and exhausted. They are friendly, flexible and Max adores them which is all we can ask for. A great team and highly recommended.
Katie and Ingrid walked our Border Terriers for a week while we were away. They were fantastic. Definately use them again no hesitation.
Lovely ladies, so kind and helpful with looking after our hamster and bearded dragon. Thank you both.
Excellent service - highly recommended. Our dog seems very very happy there.
I can't say enough good things about this doggy daycare! My cocker spaniel, Hunter, absolutely loves it! Paul, Julie and the rest of the staff at Busy Tails are exceptional and accommodating - on top of that, so attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the dogs in their care. Hunter absolutely loves his time there - he waits at the door in anticipation each week and always comes home happy and exhausted. I trust the team to drop him off and I love how clean he comes back after muddy wet days too. The facility is well-organised, and offers plenty of activities to keep the dogs engaged and active. It's clear that the staff go above and beyond to ensure each dog's well-being and enjoyment. A big shout out to their social media team too, the photos and videos on Instagram are amazing to see each day, I love it! So yes, safe to say I wholeheartedly recommend Busy Tails to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry friend!
My puppy Henry attends here once a week and has such a good time! He is really excited at drop off he can't stop woofing and tail wagging to let everyone know he's arrived. He is in an area with dogs of a similar size and plays constantly throughout the day, it has been so good for his socialisation from a young age. Then he comes home happy and exhausted. I am really grateful to all the staff, he clearly is very well looked after 😊
Maisie almost takes flight with excitement when her second family comes to collect her for the day! Worlds away from her first trial day when she was incredibly nervous and wouldn’t leave our side. Her days there definitely helped build her confidence and she clearly loves it! Julia, Paul and the team are always contactable and help with general doggy questions which is great for first time dog owners. The dogs are truly their priority and as well as being safe and cared for, they have great fun in generous surroundings.
Honestly, Busy Tails are amazing!!! They were recommended by a few people and from his first visit we new our boy would love it! He loves going and and whines if I don't get out the car quick enough when we arrive, lol!! I was always a bit stressy leaving him with people but watching him get so excited when he sees the staff makes me so happy :) . My husband and I's work schedules can occasionally change and they are always so accommodating, even at short notice. Worth every penny!!! x
Our dog Henry has been going to Busy Tails for three years and I’ve always been really happy with the service. Henry always trots off happily with the staff when the van arrives and the staff are always friendly and professional.
Our Mia used to have the absolute best times here! (I think she preferred being there to home!) Julia, Paul and the team loved and cared for her..and spoilt her! We visited once and spent an amazing day with all the pups - came home exhausted and filthy...loved it! Can't recommend Busy Tails enough...they care and love every pet they take care of as if it was their own. How lucky they are to be surrounded by all that love and fur all day long! Wishing them all the best of luck in 2021 and onwards...
Simba has been going to Busy Tails for the last 2 years or so and just loves it! He eagerly awaits collection in the morning and gets dropped home, exhausted & happy in the afternoon. Paul, Julia and their whole team have such a passion for looking after all the dogs in their care and do so with friendliness and professionalism. The facilities are outstanding - as well as lots to keep the dogs happy & entertained, there’s also some rest areas too. As well as all of this, the site is safe, secure and really well looked after.
We had arranged a visit to Busy Tails. We were made most welcome by Julia and all the lovely staff. The dogs were very pleased to see us too. Very happy dogs, some running around having fun and playing, some just relaxing enjoying the sun and some having some lovely cuddles. Happy place for dogs with space to enjoy the outside and space to relax inside or outside.
Frankie has been going to busytails for the past couple of years & loves it so much. From her seamless pick ups / kisses with james, to lap cuddles all day long🩷 thank you busy tails x …
Highly recommend as a doggy day care. We had our pup go along twice a week from when she was 4 months old, and she has become such a well socialised young dog. We think this was largely down to Busy Tails and her interactions with all the other pups! They are always very professional and prompt to collect our pup in the from Wandsworth, and great value compared to other day care option around the area and in SW London. They look after the dogs so well and regularly post photos to their instagram of the dogs during the day. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for day care for their pups!
We have been sending our dog Elton to Honeys for 6 months now and it’s the best thing we could have done. Jovana sends photos to let us know how his day is going, and was reassuring at the beginning when I was worried. I trust her completely with Elton and he loves going with her every week - it’s definitely his favourite day! Thank you for taking good care of him :)
We have been sending our Paola to Honey's with Jovana since she was a few months old. Jovana and the team at Honey's have played a very important role in shaping our Paola into the loving and well behaved doggy that she is. They do take very good care of the dogs at the same time teaching them important life skills. Would highly recommend Honey's any day ! Thank you once again Jovana and the team at Honey's Doggy Daycare :)
Fudge is always so excited to see Ross in the morning and you can tell that he really cares for the dogs’ well-being. From making sure the light is on when he gets home (as fudge is afraid of the dark), to making sure fudge’s equafleece is off so he is comfortable when left. It really is the little things that shows that your dog is cared for and their needs are catered for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
You only have to visit Honey's during the day to see what a wonderful time all the dogs are having. Jovana, Mark and Maaicke really do run a fantastic experience for the dogs and, of course, the owners benefit too. The facilities are top notch and very environmentally sound. Mark and Jovana have so much dog experience and are so good with all their animals that each dog really is treated individually. I know it sounds like a cliché, but a day at Honey's really is like having one-to-one boarding.
We have been using jovana for dog-care whenever we go away, for several years now. Totally trust her amazing dog handling skills. Our dogs have a wonderful holiday whilst we're doing the same!! Peace of mind is worth the journey from Suffolk! !
My pooch has been going to Honey's for several years now and loves it! She runs at the door and wags her tail when she gets picked up ever day. The team are very reliable and professional and have never let me down. Jovana always goes the extra mile when needed. Brilliant service, Woof woof :)
Brilliant doggy daycare - my dogs love going to Honeys to play with friends! I always know my dogs are having a great time and looked after by Jovana and Mark as if they were one of their own.
I have recently started using Honeys after a friends reccomendation, my dog is so happy to go off with jovana and has a fantastic time with his new friends. They are very professional and I know my dog is in safe hands whilst I am at work.
Our dogs go to Honey's every day and love it! They play chase with their friends, swim in the pool, run around the agility course and then snooze in the cosy beds. It's great knowing they're so happy while we're at work
What a great place and a geat space for dogs - Sadie and Rags just can't wait to get out of the house and into Jovanna's van when she calls to take them to the day care.
My dog Lulu can be a bit tricky and with my wedding coming up, my usual carers won't be available. So I turned to Home From Home Dog Boarding to start building a connection with a capable carer. We were introduced to Monika and Alessandro who turned out to be more than perfect. They have great experience with bigger and stronger dogs. Lulu had a great weekend and I didn't worry once whilst I was away for the weekend. They sent great updates and took Lulu out for day trips and were so accommodating when plans changed and I needed to pick her up later than planned. She had a great time and is already booked in for more holidays and I can know that I can focus on my wedding next year and not worry about Lulu enjoying herself as well!
We have used home from boarding twice now and both times they have been excellent. We have you two different carers for our dog Skye and both times they have been brilliant! Keeping us updated with messages and photos both times. This is a great peace of mind that your dog is safe and in great hands. Please pass on our thanks to Maddie for all her efforts on the last stay. Thanks again home from home boarding
Ive used Home from Home dog boarding for years now and can honestly say they are the best. The usual carer they went to wasn’t available so they stayed with Natalie and her husband H. Such a lovely couple, who adore dogs and have lots of experience. I got daily updates and went away knowing they’re being looked after. If anything happens to one of them there’s 24 hour support from Home from Home. Staff in the office are so friendly and helpful. Highly recommended
amazing couple Pam & John looked after my anxious girl. She had such a lovely time she was unsure about coming home!! Thank you for a perfect couple who I woukd trust again.
Our cavachon, Teddy, is always so happy staying with Ilona (and her husband, Ian). She is very knowledgeable, full of kindness and common sense and offers the added bonus of a great sense of fun. Ilona has been very accommodating whenever Teddy has stayed with her. He settles in quickly, which is comforting, as we know he's happy and that allows us a worry-free break. We greatly appreciate the photos of Teddy (often with very amusing comments) that we receive regularly when we are away.
I had a tricky challenge to sort. Having secured a hard won place on a round the world yacht race who could look after my precious pup for months? I found the answer with Home from Home. They were 110% helpful and supportive from the moment I contacted them. The person they found to look after my dog was wonderful and took the very best care of her. All watched over by the Home from Home team. Thank you all for your wonderful service. I highly recommend them.
We cannot thank Home from Home Boarding, and especially Nicola, enough for the amazing care she provided for our 7-month-old dachshund puppy, Remi! This was our first time leaving her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The company was incredibly efficient and quick to get in touch, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Knowing that Remi was in the hands of someone who genuinely cared for her and gave her undivided love and attention 24/7 was such a relief. Nicola was FANTASTIC! She made us feel so comfortable from the start and kept us updated with the most lovely ‘pupdates’ that brightened our days while we were away. It was clear how much Nicola cared for Remi, and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands, if anything Remi has been returned better behaved than when we left! We highly recommend Home from Home Boarding and Nicola to anyone needing a trusted and caring home from home for their furry family member. Thank you so much! 🌟🐾
First time using Home from Home Boarding for my boy. Morris was placed with a lovely couple who treated him like he was there own. This made my holiday worry free knowing he was in safe hands. Will definitely be using again . Thank you Joyce and Dave.
This is the second time Eddie and Vera have looked after Tiago and despite there being a year in between stays he was so excited to see them and return to their home. It is so reassuring for my wife and I to know that he is happy and well cared for by them and we are very grateful that he too had a wonderful holiday! Thank you Eddie and Vera! The Home From Home booking experience is straightforward and easy and we are very happy that it provided us with great carers for our dog.
Excellent, efficient and friendly service from Home from Home. The lady they found for us (Pat) is delightful. So lovely with our dogs and has a beautiful garden which they loved. Can highly recommend, thank you.
What an absolute pleasure and great experience for us and our 5 month old bundle of joy. We thought our puppy wouldn't want to come home. Heidi is amazing, very flexible in covering some holiday time and gave great advice to us new dog parents. First choice every time.
My two beagles were looked after so well. Heidi and Stephen are wonderful people, no where else comes close to muddy paws and I won't leave my two boys with anyone else from now on. Absolutely fantastic.
Heidi has been looking after our pets for many years. We have 2 cats and a rabbit, and Heidi visits each day whenever we go away to feed them and look after them in our home. She takes super care of them and is lovely to deal with and really reliable. I highly recommend Heidi and Muddy Paws as we always know 'the gang' are in safe hands when we are away and have confidence that we will be greeted by happy pets when we return. Thank you, Heidi 😊
I’ve used Muddy Paws for many years now, starting with our gerbils and now Heidi regularly walks and looks after our two dogs - a 10 year old mini labradoodle and a 1 year old viszlador (who is quite a handful!) Heidi has been brilliant! Always does her best to accommodate our dates and times and will go out of her way to do so. The dogs always come back happy and I know that with Heidi they are really well cared for. It’s lovely going on holiday and not having to worry about them. Highly recommend!!
Muddy Paws has been providing me with dog walking for the last 4 years, 4 days a week, every week for my beagle Angus. Heidi is prompt, reliable, great value for money and really flexible. Her knowledge of dogs, breeds, behaviours, training and feeding tips have been invaluable. I cannot recommend Muddy Paws highly enough. Absolutely awesome. Would choose again and again. I am a genuine customer and provide real genuine feedback.
Our cocker spaniel has just come back from a fun filled week with Heidi. He’s a sociable dog and loves the company of the other dogs as well as all the lovely walks. Heidi is very professional and takes the time to meet dogs before a possible stay, which is great. We are booked in for further stays over the coming months and feel confident about our cocker spaniel having a lovely holiday while we are also away.
Our parrot Stan has been going to stay with Heidi for approximately 10 yrs often for a month at a time. Heidi is extremely professional and we have total confidence that Stan is really well cared for. We have no hesitation in recommending Heidi and her services.
Heidi is very professional and knowledgeable about so many types of pets. She has been taking care of our pets for 6 years and I do not ever worry at all about leaving them in her care as she is very caring and she has them all under control.
Heidi is very reliable and professional, and always tries to meet our changeable timetables, and the dogs love her. We are so happy to know that they are safe and happy with her.
Sorry you felt the need to leave poor feedback, whilst we take every feedback seriously I don't actually believe you have ever used our services so I would be grateful if you could remove this and add it to the business it was meant for. If I am wrong I would be happy to solve any issues you have had personally
Fantastic facility with people who really care about the pets they look after. When my dog was doing hydrotherapy with them, he absolutely loved his visits (and the squeezy cheese!) Highly recommend using Oak Ride Farm.
The cattery at Oak Ride is brilliant! The team are so lovely, they clearly love the animals and care for them amazingly. The first time we took our cat she was quite nervous but the team gave her so much attention that she settled quickly and had a great stay. The team were also great at sending through photos and email updates to us which put our mind at rest. Our cat has now completed two stays at Oak Ride with a third booked for the summer and every time she has come back happy and healthy. Thank you Oak Ride!
My cat has stayed at Oak Ride Cattery a few times and I wouldn’t hesitate to send her there again! She had only been to one cattery before and she wasn’t herself when we got her home but after staying here she’s been as happy as she had ever been, we could really tell she’d be taken care of and given lots of love and attention. You can tell the people who work here put their everything into making sure your cats have an enjoyable stay! I also really appreciated that they sent me a photo and an update half way through our trips!
My cat Halloumi has stayed at Oak Ride quite a few times now and he always comes home happy and healthy. Their facilities are clean, well cared for and spacious. Their staff are friendly and attentive to the animals, making sure play time happens every day. I know I can always trust Oak Ride to take care of my little guy while I’m away, and I would highly recommend them to others!
I cannot commend the cattery enough. I used Oak Ride to care for my cat, Flo, whilst home renovations were carried out. She was not just cared for but loved by the team for 4 months. Paula especially took Flo under her wing. I received updates & photos & when she returned home was happy & well. Flo, had not faired particularly well in a cattery previously, so I attribute this success story to the care she received. Following that positive experience Flo stayed happily on several occasions, I think she enjoyed the attention she received more that from me!! 😁 I would have no hesitation recommending anyone. It’s in a lovely location & the staff all welcoming.
Our cat Willow stayed here for a week. She seemed very happy here and we could tell she was well looked after during her stay. She is a fluffy cat and needs regular grooming and her coat was well maintained. Such friendly staff and you can tell they all love the cats and their jobs very much. Thank you! Will definitely be using this cattery again in the future :)
A really friendly, efficient and professional grooming service. We have one of our dogs booked in for regular hydrotherapy and Oak Ride coordinated this with getting our most recent rescue thoroughly scrubbed and shampooed in their walk-in shower (during a lunch break!) as he is too big to get in the grooming salon bath. We took away a different coloured dog to the one we brought in! Very good value for money, we could never have got the same results at home or done it as safely as here. Highly recommended.
Just collected my 2 kittens from Oak Ride Cattery. They seemed to be really happy and content with their stay. They were interacted with and played with regularly, a particularly huge thank you to Hannah who took them under her wing! I had regular updates on them as I was worried because they're young, if they'd be OK. Also they had plenty of 'run' time out of their room. Will definitely use them again next time we go away!
I’ve been taking my senior Labrador ladies to Oak Ride Farm for Hydrotherapy since 2017. Its a highlight of their week. Weekly sessions have made such a difference to them, its been essential to their well being. Do we recommend Oak Ride Farm? Yes....absolutely! We travel 23 miles to get here. Thank you ladies - Carolyn, Mandy, Paula for your professionalism, expertise and especially for your care, attention & accommodation for Tess & Kayla.
Rex had been lame for a while then had his operation. His hind legs were all out of kilter. The hydro therapy was great fun and they really helped sort the poor mite out. And it was fun to watch him in the tank too! Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Jane has been fantastic looking after my two cats. She is reliable and has been very patient will my timid girl. Jane is very flexible and has helped us out at short notice due to a family bereavement. Nothing is too much trouble and she is always available when needed. I highly recommend Jane.
We have a gorgeous but very large DDB puppy and a 4 year old Frug we spent ages trying to find dog walkers who could accommodate both of them. We are so so lucky to have found Jane, Meg and Andrew from Welovepets Guildford. Not only do our dogs love them they are reliable, great communication and take our puppy for the best walks, they both listen to what you need and want and absolutely accommodate this. Our Frug is very difficult to walk so we do that but they give him so many cuddles, play and wee stops. We couldn’t be more grateful too them all.
Jane and her team have been fantastic from day 1 and throughout, managing the changing needs of my dogs and everything from regular walks, pop-ins, late feedings, overnights/housesitting - really anything you and your pup might need. Initial sign-up process was extremely quick and efficient, they started straight away and they have been reliable, efficient and flexible throughout. Forgotten to book in? Needed to book extra bits last-minute? Need to cancel or add in extra walks? It's never a problem. I get photos as standard after every walk, it's cost effective and reliable and has given me such peace of mind. Jane and the team have been absolutely fantastic for me and my two dogs. Honestly cannot recommend highly enough. Would give six stars if I could!!!! Eleven out of ten! I know I have said it before but thank you so much again Jane for EVERYTHING what a lifesaver. I don't know what the boys and I would do without you. Gill & Gus & George xx
Jane from We Love Pets Guildford supplied a fantastic twice daily service to our cat whilst we were on holiday. She also watered the plants, collected the mail and took the bins down. It was a very reassuring feeling knowing she was there and attending to our cat's needs and our property - we would definitely use her again!
We have been using Jane at We Love Pets Guildford since our puppy was 16 weeks. She has been great, going above and beyond to make sure our little boy (who was quite nervous initially of new people) was comfortable and happy. Alvin absolutely adores Jane and is so excited to see her every week.
Well what to say, We Love Pets Guildford were a life saver for me when we were let down with a dog sitter for an event we were attending. Jane was quick to respond and organise a lovely lady, Meg, to look after our Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy for the day. For me, what stood out the most, was the time Jane took in ensuring all parties were happy. Jane & Meg came round a few days before to meet our dog and get to know each other. It is clear that Jane is extremely passionate about what she does, and her love of animals, and I felt completely confident in leaving our puppy for the day (bearing in mind this was the first time he had been left without us). I had never used We Love Pets before but I will not hesitate in using them again. The service was impeccable and our puppy was so well looked after, Meg made sure he was walked and had lots of cuddles throughout the day. I’m so glad to have finally found a reliable dog sitting service!
Jane has been a real find, allowing us to be away knowing that our cat Herbert is well cared for. She is always willing to help out in other ways e.g. sorting mail and watering plants. And what’s more Herbert seems to like her more than he likes us! A very reliable and friendly service.
Fantastic and personal service... Jane walked our Lhasa Apso (Laurie) prior to us moving house this year, and was amazing with her. They really bonded, and you could see the happiness in Laurie when Jane arrived to pick her up. Since moving home, we have used Meg as a dog sitter, and Laurie was instantly at home with her. The pictures and videos that they both sent of Laurie out on walks or relaxing at home are a wonderful touch.
Jane has been cat sitting for us for around a year and we throughly recommend her. She has made every attempt to befriend our extremely timid elderly rescue Mainecoon cat and keeps us upto date by video and photos whilst we are away. Jane always confirms prior to our travels and is flexible, recently additionally taking on feeding our pond fish. We find her reliable, affordable and friendly and will continue to use her services.
Excellent experience with 'We Love Pets' in Guildford, I would highly recommend. Jane was very helpful.
Edita is absolutely brilliant dog walker and dog boarding service provider. Our dog Betty loves staying with her and other dogs she is looking after. The best "features" include drop off and pick up and fact that our dog has company of other hounds as she is very social and playful. Edita is a dog whisperer and can handle even most "independent" pups. Highly recommend!
Our Labrador absolutely adores Edita. She gets so excited when Edita collects her and always heads off happily. She has spent quite a few holidays there now and Edita is great with her and so it feels like a home from home. We receive regular photos and updates and it’s great to know that she is happy and being well cared for. We don’t book a holiday now without checking with Edita first.
Edita has been looking after my dog, Penny, for over a year and a half, and she’s amazing! Whether it’s daycare or boarding, Penny gets so excited when she realizes she’s going to spend time with Edita. She always comes back tired, happy, and clearly well taken care of. I highly recommend Edita to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. She’s truly fantastic!
Edita is fantastic with our Labrador. Cosmo has been boarding with Edita for over a year now (since around 6 months old) and loves every stay, particularly the long walks and being in the company of other dogs. I would highly recommend Edita to any dog owner!
Edita has looked after our miniature dachshund several times. She is incredibly accommodating, trustworthy and good at what she does. We never feel worried leaving our dog with her, it’s very heartwarming to see how excited our dog gets whenever she sees Edita. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Edita is wonderful and takes great care of our dog on a regular basis. She's fantastic with dogs and truly cares about their well-being. Our dog always comes back happily worn out from all the walks and fun activities.
Edita has been looking after our dog for over a year now… both day care and boarding. She is amazing, so caring and knowledgeable. I know that Bluey has the best time, and absolutely adores going for a day out with his friends! Highly recommend.
Highly recommend Edita. My dog Luna boards with Edita 4 or 5 times a year and loves the long walks and home from home environment. Edita is like the dog whisperer- and the dogs are all so well behaved in her care.
I’ve recently started using Edita and my dogs seem very happy. She is reliable too which is so important. She does daycare and overnight if you need it
She’s really care about dogs and very kind and trustful peoaple. I’m very happy to found Edita to look after my babe dog Bear .Thanks for everything we love you.xxxxx Fernanda
Rob has been walking Millie my slightly nervous rescue dog for 3 years now. He’s so good with her and she’s very happy on her walks. Rob is flexible, has the dogs best interest at heart and frequently posts pictures on his webpage so you can see what fun the dogs are having. Would highly recommend him.
I have owned four Rottweilers over the past 15 years and Rob has walked all of them. He has always been completely reliable and I'm sure all of my Rotties enjoyed their walks with him. He has been willing to step in at short notice and recently, when I was looking after my daughter's English Pointer, was happy to take her out while I got in a round of golf!! Rob has almost become one of the family; I trust him completely and I know he felt the loss of Blade, Charley, Alice and Soldier almost as much as I did. Thank you Rob.
Moss (our border collie) absolutely loves Rob and Angela. They've been walking him for 5 years and I can attest from the smile on his face and how much he sleeps after he gets in he's had a good walk.
After having a bad experience with another dog walker. Walking Woofers were recommend to me. Since the first meeting Walking Woofers were professional, friendly and the dogs were very important to them, as if they were their own. Walking Woofers have been walking are two working springer spaniels for many years and they enjoy their time out with Walking Woofers and you know your dogs are in safe, caring hands which is so important to any dog owner. I cannot recommend Walking Woofers enough for anyone considering a dog walker. You know your dogs will be safe hands and have a great time.
We were introduced to Rob several years ago & would now be lost without him! Our old boy Chums no longer walks but is always pleased to see him. Olive walks with him on a regular basis and truly looks forward to it. Rob is kind & very agreeable to changing times, for which we thank him! We would have no hesitation in recommending Walking Woofers to walk & care for your dogs.
Rob and Angela of Walking Woofers have been walking my dog for nearly 13 years now. I would be lost without them not only do they walk him they care about him, look after his well being and always let me know if anything does not seem right with him. He has a long walk and always comes back refreshed and ready to relax for the rest of the day. I would not hesitate to recommend them so if you want a reliable, caring and genuine person to walk your dog then Walking Woofers are the ones to pick.
Rob from walking woofers is fantastic- I have a lot of shift work and last minute changes and Rob is always happy to accommodate my last minute changes . Our family dog loves seeing him and always has great walks which Rob captures on camera for us to see.
After breaking my arm i got in touch with Walking Woofers to walk my Rottweiler. I am so pleased I did. Initially it was only meant to be temporary but because it made such a difference to Jason's (dog) temperament going from a teenager to an adult., I kept them on. I also do not need to use kennels as Rob will sleep over and walk him the next day. When I come home it is if I have never been away. he is so much happier. Not all dog walkers will take on large dogs. I would highly recommend Rob and Angela.
Rob has been walking Max our Ridgeback for 7 years. Rob is extremely reliable, Max looks forward to his walks with Rob and the pack of dogs. At times when Max needs ‘special walks’ due it ankle sprains and needs to be walked on the lead this is easily scheduled within Rob’s day. Thanks for all your walks, Elizabeth
Rob and Angela have been looking after our dogs for 11 years. They have known all our dogs since they were puppies - currently two Ridgebacks and one Parson Russell Terrier and have always been completely reliable as well as being flexible to meet our dogs needs. They come highly recommended - not least since we would have struggled on occasion without their support.
