Dog Sitters in Cumnor

We had such a wonderful experience with Yvonne. She looked after our cockapoo Woody so brilliantly and took him on some amazing walks. What was most reassuring for us was that he was so excited to see Yvonne and the other dogs every time we dropped him off (or Yvonne kindly picked him up) and he was always suitably tired (but happy) when he came home again. Yvonne offers a very professional but friendly service and she went above and beyond to accommodate our schedules. We will definitely be using her services again in the future and would highly recommend her business to anyone else in the area.

When I found Yvonne a couple of years ago all my dog-care worries vanished! I was only prepared to leave Peanut with the best, and Yvonne and her family are just that. Yvonne is kind, always ready to help, professional, and flexible, and the dogs quickly become part of this wonderful human and doggy family. Her service is worth every penny. Peanut was clearly loved, and as an older dog Yvonne identified and catered for her needs whether she was there for a day or overnight. Now we have Mimi the puppy, who adores Yvonne and her family, loves running around the beautiful, big, safe garden, and playing with the doggy friends she has made. She is now looking forward to some of those fabulous walks! Thank you for everything!

We were so lucky to happen upon Happy Tails when we moved to Oxford two years ago. Yvonne has been walking and minding Coco regularly since then. She is flexible, reliable and a genuine dog lover. Coco is always excited to see her and her family along with her many doggy pals. I highly recommend Yvonne and the excellent service she provides.

Yvonne has been walking our dog for the last year or so, and we couldn’t be happier with the service she provides. She’s super with animals, and it’s clear she has a real love for them. It’s obvious our dog loves the walks with Yvonne - we can tell from the wonderful update photos Yvonne sends us! She’s excellent value for money. We couldn’t recommend her enough!

We were so lucky to find Yvonne - she is reliable, communicative, extremely flexible and most importantly so clearly loves our dog. He eagerly waits by the door the days she takes him out, and the photos she sends us every time prove he’s loving every minute. My one warning is if you are thinking of using Yvonne you must be emotionally strong enough to deal with the fact your dog may love her a tiny bit more than he loves you!!

Our dog Holly adores Yvonne and her lovely family. Yvonne takes her on wonderful walks and Holly always comes back well exercised and happy. She has also stayed overnight very happily with Yvonne. We have found Yvonne to be absolutely reliable and flexible. We are very lucky to have found Happy Tails for Holly!

I can not recommend Happy Tails highly enough. Yvonne is extremely professional dog-manager and my Fox-terrier Paddy absolutely adored both day-care & longer term boarding with she & her family. The location of Happy Tails, on the outer Oxford border, is also idyllic for dogs. There is plenty of free space to run around & Yvonne takes the dogs on long walks & sends back photos showing the activities & adventures. I will be forever grateful for the love & care Happy Tails has given us.

Yvonne is amazing with all dogs. She was always very responsive and Poppy loved going there. She always came home exhausted which is always a good reference to how much she enjoyed herself. I always knew she was likely having a better time at Yvonnes than I was doing whatever I needed to do. Five star review! Thanks Yvonne.

Our dalmatian Dolly always has a wonderful time with Yvonne, who is an extremely caring and reliable dog sitter. Dolly can be anxious away from her family, but she always settles very quickly with Yvonne and absolutely loves her big garden and the wonderful long walks. Thoroughly recommended.

We couldn’t ask for a better dog Walker than Yvonne: she communicates brilliantly with us to set up the walks for the week and sends us amazing pictures so we get to see just how much fun our dog Boris has had. No matter the weather Yvonne can be relied on to give your dogs a good walk. Her help whilst we have been working from home and stuck on the phone all day has been a godsend. Couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Our dog visits Cumnor Dog Lodge weekly for daycare and also used the boarding service occasionally over the last few years. Always had a great experience, and dogs have plenty of space to run around and play. It is easy to reach out to the owner, who is always happy to provide updates and pictures of our furry friend. Marc is very experienced with animals. Our dog is always excited to visit Cumnor and returns home very happy and tired after.

It's nice seeing a few animals around the area, and it's generally nice to walk, no dogs needed. There's a spot with a great view around the place.

There aren't many people I'd gladly leave my dogs with all day, but Mark has a wonderful garden/compound where the pups can run free and have fun, along with day beds in the shade and an indoor area.

There are NO photos of the dogs overnight boarding rooms. A proper dog lover would not let a dog stay in a place that does not show what the dogs accommodation is like!!!!! I'm shocked at the stars given when there are no photos of the dogs accommodation which should matter to a real dog lover!!!!!!

My dog goes every day, Marc is very good with all his charges. My dog enjoys goes there and mixing with his friends.

Our dog loves it there great for day visitors and over nights.

Very friendly and relaxed. Good management and reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place. Our pet loves going to play

Excellent day care for your four legged friend

Macey walks our dog twice a week and he always comes back a happy pooch, he loves her! Punctual, friendly and professional service.

Our Peggy loves staying with Lorain and her lovely labs at Dog Haven Boarding! Whether it’s a weekend trip or just a daycare session, the dogs are occupied and engaged and get plenty of love and cuddles. We are so glad to have found them as it really has been like a home from home for Peggy, she even knows exactly where she’s going once we turn off at the roundabout and gets all excited in the car! You can tell Lorain really cares for the dogs and gets to know them and all their little quirks to make sure their normal routines aren't disrupted too much. We also get plenty of photo updates which really make us smile! We would recommend Dog Haven Boarding 100%!

We were away for a week, and our energetic furball Rocco had the time of his life with Lorain and his new best friend, Ronnie. Our 3-year-old Golden Retriever was truly receiving top-notch care every step of the way. We absolutely loved the daily updates—his big smile, fun walks, and happy eating made us feel at ease knowing he was in the best hands. We highly recommend Dog Haven to anyone looking for a loving and reliable dog sitter. Thank you, Lorain for taking such wonderful care of him

Having recently moved into this area we are so pleased to have found Dog Haven Boarding. Lorain is so thoughtful and kind and has really helped our dog Oscar to settle and feel at home with her and her other dogs. We have really appreciated the way she looks after him and we love the regular photos throughout each day! We would highly recommend her to others. Thank you so much Lorain!

Lorain and her lovely family look after our highly strung English bulldog every year when we go on our holidays. It’s a home from home for our four legged baby, she loves it. Our Lola is always well cared for and looked after during her stay. Amazing service!

Lorain has looked after my rescue dog who does not warm to people easily. However, the moment he entered Dog Haven he was at ease and instantly loved Lorain (unusual for him). He had a fantastic weekend and didn’t want to come home! Lorain kept us updated with how he was getting on. It is such a lovely place for dogs and felt like a little holiday for him. It’s a real home from home for dogs - thanks so much Lorain!

Lorain has looked after my greyhound for the last couple of years and she loves it there. It’s like home from home for her and much less stressful than a traditional kennels. Highly recommend!

We have used Dog Haven Boarding on numerous occasions and it is a god send for our two little fur babies! We were not keen with putting our dogs in kennels, particularly as our little Yorkipoo is very needy, so when we found Lorain and her family offering daycare, overnight stays, including holidays in a home environment we were so pleased. We went for an initial visit to meet Lorain and to see how our dogs would enjoy the stay, and interact with Lorain’s own lovely labradors. It is a clean home, with a good sized, safe enclosed garden for the dogs to play and enjoy the outdoors. They are also taken for walks outside of the house in small groups during daycare on leads, as safety of the dogs is taken seriously. I think this is really important for routine and also provides further stimulation. Photo updates during the day gives reassurance and is a nice touch. After daycare, on collection, both our dogs appear very happy, so we know they have been well looked after whilst in daycare with Lorain and often are very keen to get back into the house when we return. We also used Dog Haven Boarding for our first holiday away since we got the dogs and we were very anxious. Lorain listened to our requirements and met all the needs for our dogs whilst we were away. So it was easy to enjoy our time away without worrying about the dogs. Again the photo and video updates really helped us to stay relaxed and not worry so much. Lorain is very approachable and has a lovely manner. She often responds at short notice and she is totally amazing with our dogs. If you are considering a home environment for daycare or whilst you are on holiday, I would highly recommend using Dog Haven Boarding!

I can't recommend Lorain highly enough. She clearly loves dogs, and they clearly love being with her - dog people will understand what this means. I always used to feel guilty going on holiday and taking my black lab to kennels. Not any more. As soon as we are near Dog Haven he knows exactly where he is and is visibly excited and happy. Loraine sends through regularly updates during the stay and I'm always happy knowing that our dog is being well cared for.

My two dogs were instantly at ease with Lorain, as was I. She has the loveliest manner with dogs, and I felt very happy to leave my boys with her. They came back happy and tired. When we went for our second visit, they could not wait to get back through her door! I am delighted I have found Lorain , and we will now be regular visitors.

Our black lab loves going twice a week and he is treated like a member of the family. We cannot recommend it highly enough. A fantastic friendly service where the wellbeing of the dog is taken very seriously. First class and much appreciated....thank you.

Well the guinea pig came home alive so will definitely use again. Joke a side, I rang on the Saturday and managed to get booked in for the Monday for 8 days. they were very welcoming, the radio was on for all the small animals they were looking after and very clean.

Always worry about places like this, but this is like the perfect little place for your small babies. We left 3 rats here, they were safe, happy and I think they got treated better than they would at home!

Oxford Small Pet Boarding did a fantastic job looking after my daughters Conure while we had 2 weeks holiday in the summer. Their communication is excellent, they answered all our questions, let us visit in advance and nothing was to much trouble. They are easy to get to, once you find them, and the animals are kept in a clean and secure unit. Conrad was very happy there and his cage was spotless when we collected him, in fact he sulked at being back he was so well looked after! Their prices are very reasonable too. I highly recommend them, and hope they won't be too full in future to have our bird back!!

Oxford Small Pet Boarding is a brilliant board, Megan and her husband are lovely and welcoming. Completely put us at ease when we dropped our bunny off. Lovingly looked after and given time to run around, our bunny was very happy staying here and she's come back happier than ever and probably missing the grass under her paws! I'll definitely be using Oxford Small Pet Boarding again especially as it's such great value for money. You can see they have a passion for making sure your pet has the best time. Home away from home!

Absolutely delighted with the care my 2 guinea pigs enjoyed on the several occasions we have left them here. Lovely clean cages and all care personalised. Megan loves her little furry guests and treats them as if they are her own. Can't recommend highly enough.

We have left our two guinea pigs here a couple of times and are really happy with the care they have received. Megan was happy for me to come and check the place out beforehand and was very knowledgeable answering all my questions (as guinea pigs are fragile). We now refer to it as the guinea pig spa!

I am so pleased to have found Oxford Small Pet Boarding. My four ducks recently enjoyed a week being looked after by Megan. They had a super run and duck house and Megan looked after them all with such care and attention. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent communication with customers. Highly recommend.

Thank you to Meg and family for looking after our two guinea pigs while we were on holiday. They have come back very happy and settled after their first time away from us. We will certainly be using Oxford Small Pet Boarding in the future.

I've used this service twice and been thoroughly impressed both times. For two male guinea pigs, the cage size was great, and they came home looking well fed and happy. Drop-off and pick-up also couldn't have been any easier and the option to leave behind transport cages/boxes behind is a bonus.

Meg took wonderful care of my daughters' two pet rabbits. It was lovely to relax on holiday knowing that they were in safe hands and also that she ensured that they had outdoor time running around and not cooped up in a cage.

Nik has looked after our young sprocker for two week-long stays. We are so glad we found Nik. She takes the dogs on fantastic and varied walks, shares lots of gorgeous photos via her Instagram, and was very understanding of our dog's more teenaged moments. It gave us such peace of mind to know our boy was staying in a home from home, playing with lots of new friends, and having lots of human contact. We would never choose a kennel over this. We highly recommend!

Too many dog w few workers around. We sent our dog for a day boarding. It has a capacity of 50 for overnight and 40 day boarders. There were about 50ish dogs there that day. At the morning drop off, there were two ladies working. When we came for the pickup about 1700, only one lady there. It was really noisy w many dogs barking. My dog probably thought he’s visiting a dog psychiatry for that day, really skittish afterward.

Our little dog waits by the car to go to Niks in the morning, his favourite day of the week. He sleeps for Britain at home the following day- really useful to get office work done. Nik takes them on stellar long walks in all weathers and has an obvious soft spot for the dogs and their ways. Dog has boarded more than once to cover family matters arising. Nik is fantastic!

Took my dog at very short notice and after three day stay I’ve never seen him sleep so soundly. Nik has a lovely set up so I’m sure your dog will have no complaints and would rate the stay 5 stars themselves

Nik truly does care for every dog that she is looking after and takes them on lovely walks. She also gives regular updates on how your pup is getting on. 100% recommend

I had an excellent overnight experience at Blu Collar Boarding with my two dogs (plus Blu the Dalmatian is a lovely companion!). Brilliant value, plus Nik took pictures on the dogs playing on their walks which was a lovely touch - a home from home for doggies!

Wonderful place! Wouldn't consider sending my dog anywhere else now that I've found this gem, he is looked after so well, taken on the best long walks and you can tell he loves going there - thanks ever so much Nik!

Going to Nik's is the favorite part of my dog's week - he absolutely loves it there.

Joanna gave our dog the best couple of days. Her response to messages was amazing and during our holiday we received wonderful photos and video’s. Thoroughly recommend Haddon Pet Services.

Maliha has been walking our puppy for the last 3 months and I am so grateful to her. She has been so great with him, giving him attention and slowly hes been able to build up his confidence. He is now so excited for his walks. She is prompt in answering messages and always fits us in her schedule. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker.

Our dog has such a good time on her walks with Maliha! We cannot recommend her highly enough. She has our complete confidence and often makes helpful and thoughtful observations about our dog. She cares. Our dog comes home suitably exhausted but obviously also having had such fun. The photos and videos are hilarious and brilliant but also wonderfully reassuring. Thank you!

Maliha has been walking our greyhound Jazz for nearly 6 months and we are very lucky to have her as our dog walker. Every time Jazz sees Maliha she gets very excited and is looking forward to being with her. I go to work knowing that my dog will be in excellent company, with a trustworthy and reliable dog walker who really loves dogs. She keeps me updated with photos from the walks and I see how happy is Jazz with her. I highly recommend Pet Fetch to anyone who needs help to take care of their pet.

Maliha has been walking our elderly dog Sage for a year and a half now. She's almost part of the family at this point, and Sage is very excited when she comes to pick her up! She's also met our very unsociable cat Archie and she keeps an eye on him when we're away. Maliha is reliable and trustworthy and we feel lucky that we met her! :)

Maliha came highly recommended to me and has been walking Mabel for the last few months. Maliha has very quickly built a great trusting relationship with both us and Mabel. She takes time to understand what training needs we are working on and ensures that this is adopted for each walk this has massively helped us to calm down a overexcited dog. Mabel loves her walks with Maliha and I would recommend her to anyone!

Great dog-walker. Reliable, flexible and communicates well. Loves dogs and really puts them first. I always know our dog will be happy and exercised after a walk with Maliha. Thanks!

Pet Fetch is a very reliable and friendly service. They are professional, trustworthy and our dog really enjoys his visits and walks. They quickly built up a great bond with our dog who absolutely adores his walker. The update pictures we receive on every visit are a real highlight to a great service!

Herbie loves you! - Maliha gives regular updates and pictures of their adventures and so clearly cares about all the doggy’s she walks- 10/10 !

Our beloved dog Olly had a great holiday with the hosts that Jeannie and Amanda matched for him, he came back so relaxed. We've already booked his next holiday. I would recommend this service to anyone and I'm so glad I found Barking Mad. Thank you Jeannie and Amanda, I know you went the extra mile when we forgot Olly's favourite raw hide chews and you picked up some on the way to his holiday, I noticed in the picture you sent me :-)

Jeannie is a lovely lady, she placed my beloved dogs with wonderful host's who looked after them as there own. I decided to become a host my self now and I love it in fact I fell in love with one particular dog and fingers crossed I will look after her again sometime this year. Barking Mad is everything you could want for your beloved dogs.

First time using Barking Mad and could not be happier with the service provided. Jeannie was extremely helpful, reassuring and punctual when collecting and dropping off our dog. We will definitely be using them again in the future.

I've really enjoyed being a host for Barking Mad. I've looked after a number of lovely dogs now and they have all been very well behaved! The support from the Barking Mad team was brilliant and everything went very smoothly. I can't wait for my next doggie visit!

Pepper really enjoys his holidays with Barking Mad. The service is excellent and he comes home in great shape having obviously had a great time.

Jeannie and Amanda arrange fabulous holidays for dogs, they are professional and caring in every way ensuring your dog is really well looked after.

Thank you!!

Best doggy daycare in Oxford! I cannot recommend Linda and the team enough. My boy Harry has had a combo of walks and daycare for the past two years and absolutely loves it. He's practically running out the door when he's picked up and comes back giddy, waggly and happy before passing out from all the fun. So lovely to see all the photos of him playing on the page too. Reliable, fabulous and great value for money. Thank you so much guys 🌼🌼

The team takes amazing care of my Boston Terriers who both love going there. They are simply amazing and look after every pup as if it was their own

My suggestion is you don’t get members of staff to contact my clients and completely falsely insult my Cool Canines service. Which is excellent and far superior to yours. There are a lot of dogs out there who need daycare not sure why you are unable to find your own....I’m having to turn people away who have come through recommendations. Best wishes Jo Cool Canines Oxford

Our boy knows when he's going to daycare and gets so excited when we arrive. He loves it and comes home absolutely pooped; that's all we can ask for! The peace and quiet is worth it. When I made an error with my booking they still helped me out and took him in. Lovely service.

We booked the enclosed field. Please be aware that to get to the field you have to pass by the day care dogs. This upset our nervous rescue dog. Dog walkers also pass right by the fence at the edge. There were a lot of nettles in the field at this time of year and we had to get pain relief from the vet after. Staff were friendly and helpful and its probably an much better set up for a more robust dog.

This companies driver was caught today, joining the A34 at 60mph at the Botley interchange on her phone. She was texting in the company vehicle, not looking and did not notice me at all in that lane. I wouldn't trust them to drive my dog anywhere if this is how they drive and blantly break the law. The company vehicle is branded and when I told her to get of the phone she then proceeded to call me names and made hand gestures. Honestly wouldn't trust them with my dog.

Great day care for my cockapoo, staff are very friendly and I'm pretty sure they are actually dog whispers! Great views of Oxford and a beautiful setting for any pooch to spend the day!!

Fantastic place for your dogs to go. Absolutely brilliant

My dog absolutely loves her days at Hot Diggy Dawg! Staff are super friendly and clearly are at the right job because they all love dogs and have a way with them. :)

My dog loves them and I feel safe entrusting her to them

I am delighted with the services we receive from Pixie Lee Pet Services. Lee walks my dog twice a week, shares photos and videos and it is great to see that all of the dogs have such a great time. It is challenging to put our trust in someone else when it comes to the welfare of our furry friends, but I am so happy to have found Lee and I feel very comfortable and completely trust her to look after my dog each time she takes him out.

Lee is an excellent dog walker. She is reliable, friendly and my dog loves going out on her walks, with the other dogs.

From the initial contact right through to the first walk, I felt reassured and happy that Pixie Lee was the right choice. Lee was thoroughly professional and her considered approach to taking on Granger was enough to convince me that she would be well looked after and that I would receive a reliable service. Granger clearly loves her walks with Lee and the other dogs which means I can head to work knowing that she’s being socialised and exercised in a safe and loving environment. On top of all this, the communication has been great too, so I’ll happily recommend Pixie Lee Pet Services to anyone looking for a trusted dog walker in Oxford! :)

Hi my name is Ariel and I am a very demanding cat. Lee looks after me when my mum is away and she is really good! She plays with me and she walk me out (unless it’s raining and in that case she cuddles me!). My mum is really happy with the care provided and she would recommend her to anyone who would ever need a trustful person to look after their beloved animals!

Lee has been an incredible help since we adopted Basil, our retired greyhound. She has made it possible for a working couple to keep their dog happy and healthy; Basil clearly loves her. Lee has been flexible with regards to walking arrangements and has always proved reliable. She clearly cares for the animals she looks after and had proved really helpful in monitoring any health concerns we had about Basil. We also love the social media updates Lee posts from Basil’s walks! Overall, we couldn’t recommend Pixie Lee Pet Services highly enough and feel very grateful to Lee for all her work.

Lee has been walking my dog for over a year now. She is 100% reliable, understanding and amazing with my dog. She has never let us down, no matter the weather and is super flexible when it comes to organising extra walks or re-scheduling planned ones. I’d recommend her to anyone. Put simply, she’s brilliant and a total professional.

Lee is an amazing dog walker. She is very professional and takes such good care of Riley. She runs a reliable service and has been very understanding and flexible with our schedules. Riley loves her walks and has a great time with her group. Thanks Lee! Highly recommended.

I can't say enough good things about Lee. We have been using for for several years. She has helped us with training our rescue dog who was very reactive. He now is really well behaved and able to go on group walks thanks to Lee's patient and thoughtful work with him. She is wholly professional, 100% reliable and a lovely person to boot!

Lee is quite simply Excellent. I’ve had dogs all my life and Lee is exceptional - I always have peace of mind, our dog is always happy, relaxed, exercised & safe. Lee is always reliable, friendly, hugely professional, completely trustworthy and really cares for the dogs in her care. Once Lee has cared for your dog you won’t look anywhere else, ever.

Pixie Lee Pet Services are amazing! We were a bit nervous to send off our pup at first but needn't be at all. Our dog absolutely loves Lee and the other dogs and we feel safe, and happy to send him off with her. Lee is professional, reliable and responsive and has a wonderful warm and calm attitude to clients on two as well as four legs. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Five stars from the entire family ⭐️
