Gully was such a pleasure to communicate with, from our initial interview through the end of the housesitting experience. And the boys, Goose and Bill, are full of personality, well-trained and have the sweetest eyes that won me over :-) Thanks for the opportunity to spend time with them!
What a wonderful stay with two loveable terriers! Meg and Murphy were the cutest pair to look after. They especially enjoy belly rubs, and running around the back yard, digging around the trees and diving into the hay. They're good company, are well behaved and like their routine and treats. I didn't get to meet Rose, but her daughter instead, who was very welcoming and helped explain how everything worked. The house is large and comfortable, with great WiFi and plenty of quiet places to write – just what I needed! Thanks, Rose. I would be happy to return in the future.
Lizzie and Jason were great host who are very easy to communicate with. All their pets were very friendly and loving. We loved spending time with all of them. They love sleeping and cuddling with you at night. It was so cute to see Tommy at meal time spin in circles. Vespa is such a loving cat and very gentle. Pippa is a very calm dog and tends to relax more but likes being around you. They are very loving parents to Tommy, Pippa and Vespa. We would be happy to watch all of them again.
I had a lovely time staying with Tango! She is an absolute sweetheart. She's pretty well behaved (although often on the lookout for food) and loves a cuddle. The house was great and the guest room was very comfortable. Liz made the stay as easy and enjoyable as possible. Would absolutely recommend!

We recently used Precious Paws for our cat and were really satisfied with the experience. Perdi is a true professional who adores cats. She gave us confidence that our cat would be well cared for. Upon picking our cat up, we could see that he was calm and happy, not at all stressed like he had been in the past in other catteries. The cabin was clean, spacious, with an outdoor secure space, and designed to make cats feel safe, comfortable and entertained. It even provided our cat a chance to make friends with one of the owner's cats, who is so sweet! Overall, we highly recommend Precious Paws to any cat owner looking for a reliable and caring place for their pet. The combination of professionalism and a stress-free atmosphere made all the difference for both us and our cat. Thank you, Perdi, for providing such exceptional care!
Absolutely fantastic. A few months ago, Perdi very kindly took care of my two cats for a few days when another cattery cancelled my booking without reason at short notice. I should have posted sooner - highly recommend.
Wonderful cat boarding experience for our two very pampered house cats. They stayed for a week in one of the lovely cat lodges and had a great time enjoying the Precious Paws facilities! Very organised and caring host who clearly adores animals so we knew our boys were in safe hands. Highly recommend.
So happy with the service at Precious Paws. Perdi is so caring and felt 100% confident leaving our Oriental boy with her. He has some health issues and Perdi is very experienced and knowledgeable with caring for his needs.We had regular updates and he settled so well. He had loads of cuddles and play. Very pleased to see how well and contented he was when we collected him.
Stunning service, trouble free and happy cats. Perdi looked after my cats for a week with morning and evening home visits, came back with stress free cats. I had regular pics and updates whilst I was away. Perdi is very experienced and has a lot of time and love for animals. Thank you! 😊 …
I highly recommend Perdi! She came once a day to our house to look after two of our cats and a house rabbit, and she also kept our more troublesome cat in her cat pen for 10 days. She sent daily updates and photos (at our request) and we were able to enjoy our holiday knowing that our pets were all being well looked after. She was very professional, with paperwork and a first meet beforehand. Thanks so much for everything!
Perdi did an outstanding job looking after our two cats. She clearly likes cats and followed all our complicated instructions perfectly. She also stayed in touch very well so we felt reassured that everything was fine at home while we were away. We would recommend Perdi's excellent service and intend to ask her to look after our cats again. It's hard to imagine how anyone could do a better job of looking after your much loved pets.
Excellent service for my old boy , he always seems calm and happy after perdis home visits . Reliable and trustworthy, would definitely recommend 🐈⬛ …
Perdi visited our rescue cats once a day for 10 days during our recent holiday. It was such a relief to know they were receiving such kind, reliable care. We were delighted with the professionalism of Perdi's approach, she is very thorough and very practical! A very safe, reliable pet sitting service which we will be booking again and recommending to our friends! Perdi also kept my many plants alive and well and collected the post. We returned to a calm and happy home. Thank you Perdi.
We have trusted Perdi with our two cats many times now. She is a very friendly person, always willing to make it work for you and always available at late notice! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a real pet lover to put their mind at ease whilst they are away.
Our dog has so much fun here, she is so excited she squeaks when we turn into the entrance and can't wait to see her friends. Lorraine and all the staff are friendly and very helpful. Plenty of mental and physical exertion means she is ready for a quiet night when we pick her up. Lots of training practice has helped the fluffy one pick up instructions quickly with us at home as well. The report cards are a great touch as well as the social media updates. I would highly recommend Pawprints to anyone. With our hybrid working it means we can go into the office when we need to and our pup gets plenty of socialisation. The flexibility is perfect for us as we can change days easily with the option of half days if needed.
We have used Pawprints for nearly 5 years and each morning Millie is so excited to arrive. The team excels in care, attention, communication and the stimulation and fun Millie craves. Such a wonderful local, well run and maintained business that has our full support.
I have nothing but high praise for this super friendly but professionally run and organised doggy day care rural retreat that has your dog’s well being and enjoyment at the heart of all it does. I have been bringing my 9-year old cocker spaniel, Alfie since his puppy days and he is one of the family. Thank you to Lorraine who had the vision to set this resource up and all her dedicated team who make this place so special 🐶💖🤩
Our dog absolutely loves coming to Pawprints, he always has a fab time, he comes home worn out, and the staff are wonderful, very friendly and really care about our dog. I also love seeing the photos taken of him having a fab time ❤ I would definitely recommend Pawprints to anyone, shout out to Jack & Tegan who Ruben adores ❤❤🐾🐾 …
We absolutely love Pawprints. Our dog has been going there since she was only a few months old and years on she is still so excited every time she arrives there! The staff are really lovely and really seem to care about the dogs and providing them with enrichment. We love seeing the photos of all the activities our dog gets up to. Her favourites are the scent games, the agility and parkour, and the tricks/training sessions. Another big draw for us is Pawprints’ amazing outdoor space and the amount of time that the dogs get to spend outside playing and socialising together. We definitely leave each day after drop off with peace of mind knowing our dog will be well looked after. We highly recommend Pawprints if you’re looking for a daycare for your dog.
My dog loves Pawprints. The team are so loving and attentive, they care for him and really get to know him. I feel very comfortable leaving him with the team as I know he will be fantastically looked after. Their outdoor space and mix of dogs is so important to enable him to learn how to behave around others, have quality play and training.
I can’t recommend pawprints daycare enough. We started taking our puppy there as soon as she had all of her vaccines. Originally, daycare was required due to job commitment - we picked pawprints because of the location, it is was 15 minutes from where I worked - which was 40 minutes from myself. Since then, I have changed roles and I am no longer required to drive to Cheltenham - however, we haven’t taken our puppy out of daycare due to the following reasons; - great socialising - the team post videos/ pictures throughout the day which are always filled with joy - the service - she never wants to leave; she pulls back to the daycare when I collect her If you’re looking for a great quality daycare service or just an action packed day for your dog/ puppy. This is the right right place!
Pawprints is such a wonderful place for our dog. He runs in there in the mornings so eager to get in. The staff are friendly and caring and really take the time to get to know the dogs and their individual needs. Our dog is stimulated, loved and comes home having learned a few new tricks. I would highly recommend Pawprints.
Fantastic doggy day care, all of the staff are friendly and lovely. Our pup loves going to Paw Prints, from his trial morning to his full days, he’s so well looked after and has the best time! Absolutely recommend!
My dog has been going to Pawprints since he was 12 weeks old, which is almost 7 years - he has the absolute best time every single day, and the Pawprints team are incredible! It is such a weight lifted off of my shoulders knowing that he’s being loved and looked after for the whole of my working day. I would be lost without Pawprints, and I’m so grateful that my boy gets to have so much fun and love daily whilst I can’t be with him. Have always highly recommended, and honestly wouldn’t consider ever going anywhere else - the people and the pups are everything I want for my boy to be around, and more.
We entrusted Short Legs Dog Care to look after our Cavapoo Freddie on our wedding day and we were delighted with the entire service. Both Chris and Trish were lovely people and meticulous in their approach. On the day, Freddie warmed to Trish instantly - the freshly prepared roast chicken and promise of multiple walkies was never going to fail! Trish was punctual yet flexible and was very relaxed in meeting our needs to ensure we could enjoy our wedding to the maximum without any unnecessary worry. Thank you to both of you - would definitely recommend! Alex and Sorroka
What can we say about Chris she was absolutely amazing with our pup Polly on our wedding day. Polly is quite reactive and overexcited and Chris handled her perfectly throughout our day. We cannot reccomend Chris enough! Polly loved her 💕 …
Trish looked after our Cockapoo, Otis, throughout our wedding day. She was wonderful with him. He can be a little nervy and awkward but she took great care with him, did exactly what we asked and Otis had a new best friend by the end of the day. He even met up with Chris and another dog from a different wedding and just had the best time. Trish brought Otis along to our ceremony to be the ring bearer and to join in the wedding photos. She then took him back to our hotel that evening, made sure he was fed and settled. He was so happy and safe. It was totally perfect. We can't thank Trish and Chris enough. Joe & Jo xx
We cannot express how grateful we are to Chris for looking after Poppy on our big day. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. Chris was excellent from start to finish; pre-communication was great, we were fully informed of the process and pricing from the start, and Chris kindly arranged to meet Poppy beforehand to make sure we were comfortable with everything. On the day itself, Chris generously picked Poppy up from a family home and later took her to the venue, which took the transport hassle away from us (she also dropped Poppy back off after the wedding)! During the ceremony, Chris seamlessly blended in with the guests and made the entire experience totally stress free for us! Everyone loved having Poppy there, which wouldn't have been possible without you Chris, so THANK YOU! We wholeheartedly recommend Short Legs to anyone looking for a dog chaperone for their wedding. If you want your furry friend to celebrate your big day with you, and if you want to ensure they are in the best possible hands, then Short Legs is the way to go. Thank you for everything, Chris! <3
We cannot thank Chris from Short Legs Dog Care enough for the exceptional care she provided for our dogs, Pippin and Gruff, on our wedding day. Pippin and Gruff aren't usually fond of new people, but Chris is truly a dog whisperer. They quickly became best friends, which put us at ease knowing our fur babies were in such capable hands. Chris went above and beyond, helping us include Pippin and Gruff in our ceremony. Despite an unexpected downpour that disrupted our schedule, Chris ensured the dogs were brought down for photos at the reception, capturing beautiful moments we will cherish forever. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for dogs made a significant impact on our special day. We highly recommend Chris and Short Legs Dog Care to anyone looking for outstanding pet care services.
I couldn’t have asked for a better chaperone for my sometimes sassy / sometimes nervy Italian Greyhound. Chris had everything covered and was the calmest energy for both me (the Bride!) and Neddy the dog. From pick up, to the service, to the drop off the following day, Chris was the ultimate professional and Ned simply adored her. Thank you Chris for being such a special part of our day, ensuring that the real guest of honour was calm and happy throughout! Wouldn’t have been the same without you 😊
Thank you Chris & Trish! Trish looked after our Cavapoo for a full day for our wedding last month at Eastington park and honestly so pleased with the service! For peace of mind we knew our fur baby was being fully taken care of, she was our ring bearer so managed to be part of our big day but at the same time she had the space and attention she needed. Highly recommend, Thank you!
Chris is wonderful and I would highly recommend booking her! We asked Chris to look after our dog at home during our wedding day, and then pop over with them for photos in the afternoon. She was amazing throughout, great communication beforehand and so lovely too. She did an amazing job in making our dog (and us) feel relaxed and comfortable, and we could tell they'd had a lovely day together! Chris is a real pro; she is trustworthy, considerate, patient, and truly loves what she does. Thank you so much for everything Chris, it was such a special moment to be able to have wedding photos with our little fur baby and it wouldn't have been possible without you.
Chris looked after two of our dogs at the Matara Centre last month for our wedding. She was great every step of the way, from organising and communicating before the wedding about the various needs of our dogs and our expectations to how well she worked with Matara and our Photographer Lee Hawley. We couldn't have made a better decision choosing Chris to look after our dogs, she kept them relaxed and reacted to their needs which gave us one less issue to worry about on our big day! Would most definitely recommend her services!
We can’t thanks Chris enough for looking after our Milo on our big day. It was amazing to have him there with us and having Chris took the stress away for us and our guests. Communication was fab as Chris was always responsive. Milo also spent the night with Chris to allow us the freedom to enjoy the whole wedding! If you want your pup at your wedding, we would highly recommend Chris!
My dog Reggie loves it here - he waits in the window for their arrival and is so excited when they arrive. His confidence has grown massively and he’s more comfortable in the presence of other dogs thanks to the lovely dogs they take on and set up at the daycare (small groups). All the people are great and Reggie loves then too!
Our Irish Setter - Rosa has been going to the Dog Day Care Club for about 5 months now, It was scary at first sending her away from us but she loves her day out on a Friday and we can do what we like for a day without worrying about her. The team are lovely and they care so much about all the dogs, it's wonderful seeing all the photos every week. She comes home exhausted but happy, which is great. This week she came home with her Repawt Card which made us smile, they say she's "enchanting" even though she barks a bit and her recall isn't the best. Well done Day Care team, you're brilliant!!
Our sproodle has been a regular with the Dog Day Care Club since he was six months, and I can't recommend them highly enough. He has the best time, comes home, has supper and goes to sleep! They take real care and attention, and back you up on any training you might be doing, and often surprise us with little touches (such as well done certificates if he's actually NOT jumped up that day!). Thank you Nick, Bryony and all the team.
Our dog loves going to The Dog Day Care Club, she waits by the window to watch out for the van that collects her! We have been very happy customers for several years.
From first meeting Nick to see where my dog Reggie would be spending his day, it was clear to see how invested and thoughtful they were from the get go. Reggie joined the team as a 7 month old energetic puppy and grew into a polite adult always coming home clean and tired. His at-home training was reinforced by the team and they also taught whistle recall which I have carried on at home. I received updates and pictures, and monthly training emails. The dogs receive mental and physical stimulation with games and off lead exercise, they make sure to group the dogs accordingly and I appreciated the ease of the pick up/drop off service - Reggie would be waiting by the door every morning and wouldn’t even look back! A caring, trustworthy team that you can rely on. Highly recommend.
Bry, Nick and the entire Dog Day Care Club team are amazing! Exceptionnel service, especially the drop off and collection and they respond rapidly to any queries or concerns you have. We have been sending our dog to them twice a week for the past few months now and from the pictures they share of his time with them you can tell he is having a great time socialising with other dogs and roaming free in their secure enclosed fields! Would highly recommend them for doggy daycare!
I have a rescue dog who was very anxious with other dogs but since joining the dog day care club he has relaxed and absolutely loves his time there! They have helped my scruffy boy hugely and managed to put a very anxious mum at ease quickly. The feed back is great (even giving report cards and certificates) and there are always great photos of the woofers having fun! They are reliable and always manage to fit in an extra day when I need a bit of help. I can not recommend this fantastic day care enough!
My dog George has been to the Dog Day Care Club since we arrived from Australia - he absolutely loves the place and people! He comes home smelling delightful and absolutely exhausted after such a stimulating day. They have paddocks for walks but also do training, agility, brain games and relaxation. Bryony, Nick and team are amazing and the door to door service is so convenient! George has also used homestay for when I have travelled without him, they treat him as a member of the family which is so important to me. They provide updates and photos which eases some guilt as I see he is happy, healthy and well-cared for.
One of my dogs needs a lot of freedom to run. With so much land available she is in her element. The groups are selected with dogs that enjoy each other’s company. The games in the barn provide brain stimulation and exercise. All the staff are extremely caring and very professional with a lot of relevant experience. Having a door to door service is the icing on the cake, and you get regular updates on how your dog is doing. My girlie arrives home tired and very happy after the best days ever. Each session’s photos of all the dogs are on social media and it is great to see how much enjoyment and fun they have. I have worked in animal welfare for many years and can honestly say that Nick, Bry and all the staff are simply the best; taking extra care in the pandemic. Highly recommend in every respect 😍
I honestly can’t fault anything about these guys ! This place is miles above any other day care I have visited or experienced. If you want to send your dog to somewhere they will be truly cared for and looked after then this is the place ! Everything about this day care is 10/10! The outside fields and assault course , the indoor kennels , the on site grooming facilities,the daily handover at pickup ! Luna comes home clean , tired and clearly happy ! I really wouldn’t go else where :)
The We Love Pets team have been walking my two border terriers for the past 7 years, more recently adding my Whippet puppy to the crew! Over 7 years Claire & her team have got to know my dogs really well, understanding the dogs quirks, especially as they are getting older, adapting especially as their needs have changed. Our current walker has been walking the dogs for a while now, including the whippet baby! The dogs love her she loves & cares for them, they’re always delighted to see her and enjoy their walks. She looks out for their welfare & notices when something is not quite right. More recently we have been using the home boarding services, this is a really welcome service where I don’t want my elderly dogs staying in kennel, I also like the fact that there is someone in the house. I feel I can go away on business or holiday and know that my dogs and home being in safe hands with a totally trustworthy team who keep me up to date with what’s going on at home! We Love Pets offer an incredible personal service with a loving touch for your pets, I would highly recommend them.
There are not many people who are brave enough to look after three boisterous weimaraners, but Claire has welcomed this wholeheartedly! My dogs absolutely love Claire, and can’t wait for their cuddles. She is so attentive to their individual needs, and she spends lots of time with them in the garden and making sure that everything is operating just right. Claire also looks after my house with the dogs in it, rather than us worrying about kennels or having to take them to someone else’s house, which provides us with so much confidence. I have no hesitation recommending Claire to anyone thinking about using her company for dog-sitting and walking services. ❤️
Great service from WLP Cirencester, they really look after our dog and treat her like they would their own pet, she clearly loves her walks with them. Claire is very flexible to the dogs needs and provides piece of mind that she is being properly cared for.
I have been using Claire for quite a while now and she is the most reliable and professional business I’ve ever used! Really struggled to find reliable people in Cirencester. Genuine care towards my dog (who’s a chihuahua and doesn’t always enjoy going out) 100% reliability and lots of care and compassion towards my pooch. Highly recommend :)- Sophie &Bunny 🐾
Claire and her team provide a fantastic service. When I first met Claire back in February, she took the time to get to know me and my family and the needs of our pets. She has tailored her service to meet our needs perfectly. Her and her team have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure our pet is looked after with love and care. I have complete faith and trust and can rest easy knowing that our pet is going to be well looked after. I would highly recommend you reach out to Claire and use her services. A VERY happy customer!
Claire and her team are flexible and very friendly and they are extremely reliable. We are very happy with the service they are providing for our dog Dotty.
Claire is a fab dog walker, takes the time to get to know both the family and their pets. By understanding the needs and requirements of the dogs she’s able to plan and execute wonderful walks either alone of with a buddy. When odd occasions arise and she’s unable to attend, a friendly colleague is always on hand. Never out of the blue as she ensures that the customer has previously met the colleague beforehand. Our collie has grown very fond of her and always looks forward to his next adventure! I would recommend Claire as she is fully insured and background checked. Also for her expertise and walk rate is very competitive.
We would highly recommend Claire if you are looking for someone to look after your cats whilst you are away. Her love of animals shines through and she spends time with you to find out about your pets’ characters and any special needs. It is so reassuring to be able to go away now and know how well our girls are being looked after in their own home, which is so much less stressful than going to a cattery. And it’s great to receive a message from Claire after each visit to reassure us that all is well with them. Thank you so much Claire, we wish we had found you years ago!
We have been using We Love Pets Cirencester for a few years now. I can't recommend them highly enough. They are great. Completely reliable and ensure our pets get their usual pettings as well as food and the basics. When our travel plans changed unexpectedly they were able to add us to their busy schedule. I can trust them with our animals and that is a real compliment .
Claire has such a lovely natural friendly approach with animals. Our dogs love her. Would recommend her 100%
They were lovely people, Kept Ned safe and took him for lovely long walks. He had a massive doggy grin when we picked him up! I’d definitely recommend 😃 …
Chris has been extremely helpful with our Springer Spaniel Buddy. We’ve worked with him closely for a number of months and have made a ton of progress in lots of areas. Things were really difficult before we started working with Chris and it is a massive relief to be in a much better place now and have a lot of the negative behaviours under control. Chris was very professional and very effective. I am very grateful for the work he has done and could not recommend him more highly.
Chris has been doing training with me and Freddie for just over 2 months now. He is amazing with Freddie who gets so excited to see him each week! Chris really knows his stuff and is happy to adapt each session to whatever you need which has been great as we have worked on issues that have cropped up in a timely way. Would definitely recommend. Freddie is going to be joining Chris and Becs for doggy day care soon and we can’t wait as I know he will be in safe hands and have an absolute ball 😊
I have been having 1 2 1 sessions with Chris for my staffie pup. We got her at 8 weeks old and my older dog didn't take to her. I asked Chris for help when my pup turned 13 weeks and he has been amazing. My pup is now 20 weeks old and my 2 dogs get along brilliantly. Chris has showed me how to train my pup as well, she is coming on amazingly. He really is very good and knows his stuff. I highly recommend Chris if you need any help with training.
After making enquires to multiple dog trainers for our dog Henri, Chris was the most prompt to respond. Chris is a kind and approachable person who is instantly able to put you and your animal at ease. His training was suitable, adaptable and conducted in easy to follow lessons for both owner and animal. Nothing seemed to much to ask from Chris and he was always willing to be contacted at any time for advice after lessons. It is clear from the outset that Chris loves the job he does and it really shows.
Chris has been helping me and my dog Woody to overcome his separation anxiety and improve recall. I am very pleased with the results and Woody loves Chris. Chris has a lovely, calm manner and has been very flexible with session times and location. I would highly recommend.
I had 3 sessions with Chris and learnt that some of the issues were caused by me giving mixed signals to my puppy Indie. Chris has a really calm nature and positive approach. My main problem was with Indie and my 2 cats. Chris only got to meet Meggie but he could see how stressed out she was, my other cat mostly hides whilst Indie is around. It's still work in progress but I can now pick Meggie, and Bella up in front of Indie without her jumping and trying to grab them. Chris you'll be pleased to hear we had a breakthrough this morning, Meggie and Indie were both on the bed with me for a couple of hours. That's the 1st time in about 5 months, I was over the moon. We have continued to train and she's now playing fetch with only 1 ball and will drop it right at our feet. Chris you were a star and we can't thank you enough.
We were having issues with our dog Hari's anxiety and reactions around people. Chris spoke to me at length on the phone to find out Hari's background as a rescue and to assess how he could help. After just one session we were able to understand more about Hari's behaviour and implement some key learning to start making immediate progress. After a few more sessions with Chris we are thrilled to see Hari's confidence growing and having much less reaction. We've also decreased the "safety zone" as Hari is becoming more comfortable in closer proximity, in most cases. I just want to say a big thank you to Chris, for all of your help and advice, we couldn't have turned things around without your training. We feel so much more confident and in control, which obviously we know is helping Hari too.
Our Nicole absolutely loves her time in day care every week. Chris & Becs are lovely people and offer fantastic services. We had a 121 training course with Chris and he has patiently helped us get to the best solution. Also Bec's grooming is amazing and professional as well! Can't recommend enough!!!
We worked with Chris when we got our Puppy, Delilah. We did 6, 1-2-1 sessions with him where he helped us with lead walking, obedience training, separation anxiety, meeting/being socialised with other dogs and a lot of other things. Our puppy is now 16 weeks old and we get comments on how friendly and confident she is. I really don't think we could have managed this without Chris. So thanks, Chris!
My two pugs have been to stay with Jackie many times and love it. They are totally 'one of the family' when staying at Crawshaw, which is exactly the service I was looking for. Their own dogs make visitors feel very welcome and they all get along famously. I can not recommend Crawshaw Home Boarding highly enough.
Jackie at Crayshaw dog boarding is lovely and my Charlie (Bichon) loves his stays there. He is made to feel part of the family and gets plenty of exercise and always happy when he comes home. Definitely recommend as would never want to put my dog into a kennels.
Absolutely fantastic place for your dog to be,left my dog with Jackie the owner with no worries at all,she is a very caring girl for the animals in her care a very approachable person,friendly and polite and happy person ,rates are excellent, she took my dog in, as I had to go aboard, keep me updated while I was there, crawshaw homes are perfect for any breed of dog ,a very kind and caring person, I literally can't thank her enough Regards Barry griffiths
Excellent boarding kennels with a personal touch you will not find anywhere else.
Wonderful hotel for dogs nice owners fantastic piece of mind when away
Dog heaven for my Newfoundland. She loves it there!
Fantastic service run by fantastic people. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
We recently booked our dogs in with BJ’s as we are going away for Christmas. We unfortunately lost one of our dogs a couple of weeks ago, it was completely unexpected. It was so difficult phoning around and notifying her insurance company, pet plan company and BJ’s but the person I spoke to at BJ’s was amazing! He was lovely to speak to, so understanding and got my bookings changed straight away. Today we received a card from all the staff expressing their sadness for the loss of Lola, we weren’t expecting this but it was so nice to receive. We haven’t even used BJ’s yet but can see what an amazing and caring bunch they all are
First time back today for doggy day care in around 7months. They have been very patient with me and my 99,000 questions and concerns as he’s always a nervous puppy in new situations. They have been brilliant and my springer spaniel goblin seems to have had his batteries depleted - even his back up reserve pack. We will defo be coming back. Thank you to all the staff looking after my boy. A Personal shout out to Dave who faced my non stop day of questions. You’ve been great and really set my mind at rest. Thank you team Blaze and Lily.
We brought our three cats to BJ's after we were fb flooded out of our home and had to wait for temporary accommodation. The staff are super friendly and helpful and I was thrilled to see how happy Alfie, Babybea and JJ were after their stay. They have settled into our temporary home really well. I have no hesitation in recommending BJ's and I would definitely use again if we go away on holiday.
Amazing kennels, Sid loves going for his holidays there. The staff are fabulous, they understand our boy, and really look after him. Thank you for all you do
Its always a 5 star experience with BJ Pet Resort! I have a Sprocker and a GSD, both love going into day care, playing with the other dogs and being treated like royalty by the members of staff! The facilities are great and always kept to a very high standard. I wouldn't leave my dogs anywhere else, you can tell the staff here have a real passion for their job and pride themselves on giving the animals the best experience!
First time using bjs and my dog was very happy leaving me and coming out, he got to have 2 lovely swims while he was there. Will be booking again when we go away.
We had to leave our dog on kennels whilst on holiday, something we find hard as he's very much part of the family. To be honest our pooch is a bit pampered and we keep him clean and well groomed. We took him to meet the staff and have a look around, something they openly advertise and it's true, the professionalism and care of the dogs is evident the moment you set foot in the kennels. Knowing that your dog is looked after with heating and air conditioning to make his stay comfortable really helps you to stop worrying, and we took up the chance to give him a couple of agility sessions to make sure he didn't get bored. On picking him up, we where delighted to see they'd kept him clean and groomed and had taken the trouble to even spray him with the nice puppy spray which he is used to. One aspect worth praising the staff for is they really supported and encouraged us to bring the dog in with all his usual bedding and toys, and offered to abide by his normal feeding habits, I can't say for sure they would have followed our long list of daily habits including the two gravy bones he normally gets to settle him when going to bed, but I got the impression they really did care, so can only imagine our little boy settled in with them very quickly. He had no signs of stress when we picked him up and I like that the owner prides himself of animal welfare, definitely worth that little extra and will most certainly use them again. They posted a picture of Charlie enjoying himself having an agility session which is always nice to put us at ease that he was also having a mini holiday!
We came across BJs pet resort by accident after driving past their premises. After some research, we decided to contact them and we are so very pleased we did. We absolutely love this doggy daycare but most importantly our dog loves it! The staff were incredibly caring towards our dog from the moment he arrived, and they created a safe and fun environment for him for his day with them! The facility is clean, and I appreciated the daily updates and photos they provided. Our pup came home happy and tired, and it's evident they prioritised the well-being of each dog in their care. We cannot thank all the staff enough for caring and playing with our pooch. We highly recommended and will be using them again
Thank you for taking care of my Gigi, she is having fun here. The facilities are clean and safe, all staff are lovely, polite and professional and I really appreciate they keep uploading photos in facebook so that I can check my dog’s condition. I feel satisfied with their boarding service and highly recommended to my friends
Always a five star experience. Dropped dog off for his holidays, they make sure both he and we are happy. They aways say he's been a really good boy... not always sure he will have been! Our stubborn little Westie. But we are grateful for the care they give. Would not take him anywhere else. 12 years so far.
