Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia

I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.

I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.

Our review is written by Steven (house owner, host + my father) + also by Kim (the daughter). Written by Kim: This was our first house sit since the passing of my mother in late Dec 2023. I was helping my father Steven (whose profile it is) manage all the emails + try + find a great house sitter + came along Gretchen’s profile! Not only is she a cool cat + someone you might want to get to know, I found myself quickly talking to her. I shortly found out her profile is just a glimpse of how interesting she is but talking to her was so much better! She is a world traveler with many experiences + stories to share. We quickly became conversationalists who could talk forever + probably will continue to do so! Thank you TH! She is easy to communicate with + continued the consistent communication all along our journey of having her as our *first* guest after my mom’s passing. It was clearly a time filled with anxiety + sensitivity so there were some sensitive topics to go over + Gretchen got it right away. A few of our rooms in the house were off-limits (as they housed my mom’s things) but we reassured her the house has ample space for her to enjoy + there are many lovely outdoor spaces to boot! When she arrived she felt she was in paradise + really relished in the outdoor beauty + the indoor coziness. We were happy to share it with someone who appreciated it so much! She also was very understanding with the fact that both my dad + I would both be involved as we both handled different parts of the stay. Me, writing + setting up the Welcome Guide + would go over the situation but then upon her arrival my dad would take over + answer any questions mostly during her sit. The good part of having 2 people is she had accessibility to us both, in the case she needed it + sometimes it came up! She juggled all the communication oh so well. My mom usually handled most of the logistics so this being our first time we were nervous something would come up we might not know but it didn’t! It was new territory for us + we wanted to make sure she had everything. Gretchen handled it all with such ease, seamlessly, really respecting our wishes/desires + taking all the information into her hands + making it seem easy on her end to do so. She was easy to coordinate schedules with! There was a gap in her 1st + 2nd sit but everything went seamlessly even when my flight had a day long delay. She was able to coordinate schedules with me arriving in between, then leaving, my dad arriving different days + us extending the trip too. It all worked out! We were all a good team! She absolutely loved our older cat, Benny + he fast + furiously fell in love with her oh so easily. When I saw him, he looked oh so loved + after saying hi to me went over to ‘her’ bed + slept there waiting for her to come back. She sent many pictures, videos + even cute creations + toys she made for our Benny + it was obvious the house + our Benny were her first priority. She even asked us if she could help prune our flowers/shrubs, something my mom used to do + honestly it was an honor to hear her ask that. She was welcome to set up her art studio + play away. She was very communicative when our house cleaner, landscape gardener + house manager showered up for different reasons. When I arrived back for a short stint before she came back the 2nd time our mail was so well organized it was an assembly line! She also offered to take down our xmas tree (as we were a bit behind in taking down our xmas decorations) + she was sensitive to the fact that we were adjusting to a new normal. Thank you so much Gretchen! You made our first sit in a long time so seamless + such a relief that we are ready now to host again. We only wish we could have more Gretchen’s! (She’s also a super talented artist!) Written by Steven: Overall, Gretchen has been an absolute treasure. She has fulfilled our goals for a house sitter perfectly - she took good care of the house, great care of our treasured pet, Mr. Benny + took care of the grounds such as watering a few plants + trees. She excelled in all the above + is welcome back anytime I will be out of town in the future.

Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Joanne
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.

Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Evelyn & Jeff
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!

Thanks so much to Kari and family for looking after our Tav at their beautiful home Wild Tides. This is the first time we have left him with someone other than family, but we felt so reassured as Kari kept us updated with regular photos and texts. He even got to sleep on the couch! We will definitely use this service again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a ‘home from home’ environment for their precious dog❤️
Our spaniel boy has the best time at Wild Tides. Kari is great with dogs and sends photos and videos. Would 100% recommend!
Hi, first overnight stay for Hamish, and would thoroughly recommend as made Hamish very welcome into a dog loving home.

Andrea has been house sitting and looking after my 2 pups for holidays for a couple of years . They now go to her house and they clearly love going. They are spoilt rotten, have the best walks and full run of the massive garden there. Andrea sends me photos and videos every day meaning I can relax knowing they are happy and chilled. ( see below 😊) I wouldn’t send them anywhere else now so book my holidays around her availability.
Andrea is amazing with Sonny, he is shattered after every day out walking with her - in the very best happy dog way! She sends so many videos of him having an absolute blast with his doggy friends. Different locations to mix it up for every dog, her routes are so thoughtful and varied for the dogs to experience seaside/forest/marshland and a really good life while I'm stuck at work basically!! Plenty of enrichment both outside and inside. Great to be able to board Sonny whether for one night or longer I know he is in great hands with Andrea. Can't recommend enough for both dog walking and boarding. Sonny loves his sleepovers with his little bff Vinnie. Reading his note like a report card about his day and the adventures they had brings me so much joy! Andrea is amazing to look after Sonny, and in Carlisle, I wouldn't board him with anyone else - like others have said, I book holidays around her availability.
Amazing service and care. Absolutely brilliant. Andrea is so caring and understanding as I was nervous of leaving my dog somewhere new. She sent regular photos and videos with updates which was reassuring. My dog was so well looked after and would definitely use their service again.
Andrea was recommended to me by my previous Dog Walker. Professional and caring right from the start Andrea came and met him and I’ve never looked back. Rio loves his walks with her 4 days a week and the peace of mind knowing he is so well looked after is priceless. Love reading the notes from Andrea after their walks of where they have visited and the videos are such fun to see Rio enjoying time with his doggy friends. Thank you for taking such good care of Rio 🤎🐾 xx
Andrea is a life saver ! And our dogs love their time out with her and the other dogs. It’s great that our dogs can have fun socialising with other dogs and get plenty of exercise. Andrea understands the varying characters and needs and is always prompt and gives us updates and photos on every occasion. Even on the wettest days Andrea is always there with a smile and a bundle of energy. We totally trust her with our dogs and couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
Andrea looks after our cat, Raven, when we are away and to know she is being cared for (so brilliantly) in her own home is a god send to us. Andrea is friendly, kind, caring and trustworthy, she is a true gem. I’d highly recommend
My two whippets stayed with Andrea for over a week,visited her the week before,she was lovely with them,so was Mark her husband,on the day I dropped them off,all very smooth,all my questions were answered,her house is very dog friendly and the garden is lovely and big,all through the holiday I was sent videos,really put my mind at ease,all the paperwork was done online,Andrea is extremely organised with everything,I wouldn’t go anywhere else now,walked every day,I would trust her with my girls 100%, they settled in really quickly and were given lots of cuddles throughout,cannot recommend her enough
Where do I start with my five star review. Andrea is the most reliable, friendly , passionate and affectionate pet sitter I have ever met in my life. She cares so much for my doggies and always has a can do attitude. I leave and I feel very comfortable that Andrea will take care of the household and doggies. Do not hesitate to book any services. Extremely recommended. Thank you ☺️
Andrea is great with the dogs and they love us going away so that they can have Andrea look after them, taking them for long walks on the beach. Would highly recommend.
Andrea has taken care of our cat for the past 7 months and she takes great care of him. She sends us pictures, our cat trusts her, and she leaves the house in a great state. Would not use anyone else.

Left our new puppy with the Gibson's for a short stay and he made best friends with their daughter before we'd even left which made our trip more relaxing as he was definitely very happy to stay. (I'm quite sure he didn't want to come home.) We were very relieved to see him so happy before we left. Will be booking their service quite often I think. Thoroughly recommend their service.
Fantastic. Our dogs 1st stay away from us. Chris and Joanne don’t just look after your pet they make it part of their family. We were nervous leaving her but I’m not sure she wanted to come home. Felt 100% at ease and we will definitely be bringing our dog back. Thank you both so much again. Denise, Brian & Rúadh
We left our precious little girl in the hands of Chris, Joanna and Ashley for a couple of nights recently. They welcomed her into their home and treated her as if she was one of the family. They walked her around the local area and even took her with them when visiting their local town where she received lots of attention from passers by. Chris and Joanna kept us updated on how she had settled when we enquired.We would not hesitate to use them in the future for our boarding needs. Many thanks for the care and attention all of you showed. Mike and Jo.
Highly recommend. First full day at Gibsons Dog Boarding for our 4 month old puppy Lily today. Chris, Joanne and Ashley were amazing with her. Lily was excited to go there and was chilled and happy when we went to collect her too. They have created a great bond already, and the care is excellent as its clear Lily already loves them. Staying at Gibsons will be very regular for Lily. In fact, they will quickly become her 2nd family in a lovely home from home setting. Thank you and see you soon
Our dog has just come back from her second stay at Gibsons, and we're really happy with the care she's had. It's always difficult leaving your dog somewhere new, but Chris and Joanne were really friendly and put us at ease straight away. Our dog has come back happy; Chris and Joanne have clearly taken their time to get to know and understand her personality and quirks. Thanks Chris, Joanne and Ashley for looking after her!
Chris and Joanne are very welcoming and our dogs felt at home straight away. They stayed for doggie day care and I liked the fact that they only took our dogs, so not with any other dogs. Gibsons boarding is in rural area so very little traffic with an abundance of open areas, including forest walks. We would definitely use again and would highly recommend them.
Chris looked after my dog for the day while we were down on holiday so we could visit a local farm park. He was so well looked after and has come back a tired and happy dog.. maybe a little too happy.. we arrived to pick our dog up and he went straight back inside as if he was right at home. Thank you so much, will definitely be in contact should we be down this way again.
Lovely family, very professional and the place is a great environment for the dog. Our dog was well loved and well taken care of and it showed. All my questions were answered and payment is also straight forward. I have just re-booked for our next holiday and will use them every other time. I would highly recommend them!
So pleased that we have discovered Gibson Dog Boarding where we can confidently leave our fur baby knowing she is in safe, capable hands. Chris and Joanne offer a great ‘home from home’ service just perfect for our quirky, anxious rescue dog who we could never leave in typical kennels.
An excellent service. Chris and Joanne instantly made our dog feel at home and she was happy to stay with them when we arrived to collect her! Highly recommend. Really thoughtful, and well thought out service.

My dog Rosie has attended DDD since she was around 4 months old. It was a brilliant place for her to socialise as a puppy. Now age 2 she still goes twice per week and for occasional over night stays. Mark and Sindy are very reliable and nothing is too much trouble. I always feel reassured that Rosie is safe and well cared for and she is always happy to go which tells me she she enjoys her time there. I would highly recommend DDD for anyone looking for doggy daycare.
Highly Recommend Dumfries Doggie Daycare, we decided to try our Mini Schnauzer with Mark & Sindy as he didn't interact very much with other dogs, didn't play with toys etc & just over excited by other dogs, he is a different dog now, toys, toys, toys & plays well with others. Professional service, completely relaxed leaving our Woody with them.
Our dog hates kennels, but loves Dumfries Doggy Daycare. It is a great weight off our minds on holiday knowing she is so well looked after. There is lots for her to do in the garden and places inside for a bit of peace and quiet. We also get regular photos and updates to see how settled she is.
My miniature schnauzer loves going to Dumfries Doggy Day Care. He loves Mark and Cindy and the opportunities he gets there to socialise with other dogs. The outside area is large and has lots of equipment that provides stimulation for the dogs and a warm comfortable inside area for relaxing or wet days! As an owner I find Mark and Cindy very approachable and accomodating to any requests out of my usual pattern. I would highly recommend their service if you are considering day care for your dog!
We used Dumfries Doggy Daycare for our two Sprocker Spaniel pups until they were old enough and mature enough to be left for longer periods on their own. We also used their stayover service which was fab too. It was great for puppy socialising, learning skills and was like home from home! They loved it. Sindy and Mark were great at giving us regular updates too. We were able to go to work knowing that they were being looked after so well. We would recommend Dumfries Doggy Daycare to anyone looking for doggy care, genuine peace of mind that their furry friends are being looked after well, and for those looking for the best start for their pups.
For anyone looking for a home from home for their beloved pups - look no further! Sindy, Mark & their own pups are the friendliest bunch. They welcomed our cocker spaniel Steve with love and lots of attention. Steve runs into Dumfries Doggy daycare every time we go - we can just tell he is well looked after and stimulated. He is one happy exhausted Pooch when he comes home. The other dogs are friendly and the team do a great job of vetting owners, and meeting/integrating new dogs Steve with their pack. They really took the time to get to know us and our dog. We couldn’t recommend them more highly - just a fantastic and what are you waiting for?!
Our Dachshund pup Otto has been going to Mark and Sindy since August and he absolutely loves it. They take such great care of him and I am so confident he is being properly looked after. Mark and Sindy are very professional about their work and passionate about what they do.
Tried a few other places within the town and the surrounding area before coming here. They look after our dog once a week and she knows when she is to go as she waits by our front door on drop off day. She runs down the road to their premises which is a good sign! The overnight service is great too, the dog stays in the house with them so I know she is safe, warm and happy. Best place in town by far.
Great environment for dogs, our pug is ways excited to go to Doggie Daycare and always comes away super tired from all the fun she's had. Highly recommend!
Lola has been going to Dumfries doggie day care for a few weeks now, absolutely great service Mark and Sindy provide excellent care and attention to each dogs individual needs would highly recommend them to anyone looking for daycare or boarding it really is all about the dogs .Lola loves it.

My little Bichon has never been as relaxed with any groomer as she is with Laura. Laura sincerely loves animals and I think the dogs pick that up. Excellent professional grooming and a happy dog at a fair price - what more could you want?
I have two dogs, where I take them here. Service is great, dogs are looked after. Cuts are always very good and pricing is good. I will continue to take them here.
I have been taking my spaniel to Laura for a good few years now. She is wonderful with him, being a nervous and unhelpful dog. She is very caring, thorough and always happy to chat. Laura is very accommodating if I’m running late to collect and will always do her best to provide an appointment if I’ve left it late to book. Fabulous service guaranteed 😊
The best dog groomers I've used for my dogs. My first dog was stranger reactive and Laura didn't rush and made my dog feel comfortably and safe. My other dog has been from when she was a hyper puppy and 1/2 husky so needs a good de-shed, she always comes home smelling amazing and like a fluffy teddy. I've never met someone before who has so much love and time for animals. Would a million percent recommend Laura, she does a brilliant job especially when it's just her!
Laura is the most amazing groomer, very professional, gives great advise & our dogs love her. I wouldn’t send them anywhere else as I have total confidence in Laura. She’s simply the best.
I have been taking my dogs to Laura since we moved to Scotland 3 years ago. She always does an amazing job and I trust her 100% with them
Girls did an amazing groom on Holly, thank you so much highly recommend.
Great service, with loads of options. Mud bath, deep conditioning, and teeth cleaning
Laura is fantastic and the dogs love her.
Fantastic service from start to finish ,laura is very friendly and helpful and is very patient with my dog as he can be nervous,I wouldn't go anywhere else

An absolutely fantastic place for owners who need care for their dogs when working or having a day away. Arlo loves it as well as loving the owners of it too. He can't wait to get there and meet up with everyone. I would definitely recommend Wagg this way if you need day care for your furry friend. It is so enjoyable for Arlo we continued to use it even when working from home during lockdown.
Great place to bring your beloved dog. Harley and Chris are very passionate with what they do and go above and beyond to make sure my pup has a great experIence while at Wagg this way, wouldn’t send my pup anywhere else totally recommend☺️
Would 100% recommend Wagg This Way to everyone that is looking for day care for their pooch. Very friendly and polite couple, who are very professional and passionate about their work. They go above and beyond. My pooches were well looked after and had a blast. Keep up the amazing work Thank you
Would 100% recommend bringing your dogs here. The owner's are brilliant and very committed to their work. Recommended by a friend, and wouldn't go anywhere else!
My puppy enjoyed her day meeting new friends. Harley very welcoming. Will be booking in again very soon. 😁 …
Harley and Chris are very good and enthusiastic in what they do, I would 100% recommend to anyone I know.
