Dog Sitters in Girvan

Sarah looked after our 3 shih tzus while we were on holiday, and we can't thank her enough. I think our boys had a great time there. Already booked Sarah for our next holiday. 100% recommended

I just want to say a huge thank you, my pampered pooch came home happy &healthy, he is not used to being away from me, he was so well cared for would say above and beyond . Would highly recommend and will definitely use again 🐶🐶💙 …

Juke just loves going to stay..and I know he is very well taken care of. So I am confident leaving him..and I can relax and enjoy my free time.

We've had our 20 month old retriever here a number of times in the last couple of months. We weren't sure how she'd get on and felt like bad dog parents for leaving her, but it turned out to be a godsend! Sarah is so kind and welcoming and Rosie loves to go and stay at doggy daycare. As soon as I turn into the drive, she gets excited and it's one of her favourite places to go. Plus, it's really affordable. I'd thoroughly recommend it to anyone

My dog is always so well looked after and loves going on holiday at Teddy Bear Pet Care! Highly reccommend!

Can't thank Sarah enough for caring for the dogs they have came back really chilled from there overnight stay would recommend teddy bear pet care to anyone. Thanks again Sarah 😊 …

My boy Dex stayed with Sarah for 10 days recently and he had the best time of his life...Sarah would update me and let me know how he was doing. Could not have asked for a better holiday home for my boy🐶...I would totally recommend 👌😊😁 …

Sarah provides an amazing service!!!!! We were anxious about our 2 dogs boarding, but Sarah is so lovely with them, that our anxieties went immediately!!!! Our dogs were treated as members of the family and were given loads of love and affection. Please don't look elsewhere, Teddy Bear Pet Care is fabulous!!!!! ❤❤❤

Couldn't wish to home our dog in a better place. She was very happy and clearly enjoyed her short stay.

Sarah is very welcoming and great with animals, dogs, goats, sheep and horses. I feel very relaxed about leaving my boy in her care.

Caron & Jason were very welcoming in the interview process as we was a first time customer. After viewing the home and providing the requested details we moved forward with the booking and happy that we did. Caron sent us daily updates and photos on our dog stay which gave us peace of mind that we made the right decision. From the updates and on pickup we can confirmed their daily walks and ball time that our dog has a new best friend in Jason!

First time for both Freddie & us parents in using any service like this. Was so at ease in our visit to meet Caron, Jason and their own pets plus some other guests 🐶 very friendly welcoming home from home for us both. Freddie settled right in. In our return to drop off - Freddie pushed the door open & ran straight in - this made leaving him so much easier 💙 I knew he was comfortable & safe. Caron sent daily updates & photos which were great. Yes Freddie’s so excited to see me again this morning & i’m sure he’ll be excited to see Caron, Jason & all his new friends again when goes back in July. If you ever had fears like I did about leaving a precious pet be rest assured this doggy home is amazing & your pet is loved x

Joey, our dachshund, started day care with Caron and Jason in January this year. We can't recommend them enough. They treat Joey as one of their own and he has all the comforts of home. Joey also boards with Caron and Jason when we are on holiday and it puts our mind at ease that he sleeps indoors with the family. Joey loves his daycare and there is never a problem when we go away on holiday

Nacho has just had a great weekend at Dirty Mutts. He’s had a great holiday whilst I was having the same. Caron sent me lots of updates and pics. It was really a home from home for him and he will definitely be back. Thanks

My two beagles were staying with Caron and Jason for their holidays. The daily updates and photos were great for our peace of mind, the beagles looked so chilled and relaxed. A beautiful home, the couple are lovely people. When I picked the dogs up my usually doesn’t like strange men beagle was quite comfortably sitting with Jason being petted thanks to his calm demeanor. Can’t recommend highly enough, 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had Caron and her family watch our Doodle for just over a week at beginning of Dec 2023 and can highly recommend! Caron sent photo updates and messages each day. This put our minds at ease knowing our dog was being well looked after in a beautiful family home. Thank you Caron and Jason! We will be keeping you in mind for the future!

We have just picked up our pup from Dirty Mutts after a 3 night stay. He has had an absolute ball, we got regular updates on how he was doing, including pictures! Couldn’t recommend enough, will definitely be using them again.

First visit for our dog Millie. She was extremely well looked after by Caron and Jason and we were kept updated and reassured throughout her stay with texts and pictures. Will definitely use Dirty Mutts again.

I have a nervous dog and hate leaving him at kennels. That’s not the case now that I have found Caron and Jason. They look after your dog as one of their own. They stay in the house and are treated as part of the family. Mylo was not stressed when he came home, he loved his time at Dirty Mutts

Murphy had a great time there, kept in contact and even sent a photo to show how well he was doing. 100% would recommend!

Beautiful, safe, area for dogs to run, sniff, play. Well maintained and very therapeutic for the owners too. My rescue dogs can only be off lead here and they love it. I love seeing them really come out of themselves and enjoy the freedom, since they've been coming here, their confidence has grown.

Was extremely happy with our doggy day out here with our miniature jack russel Toby & fostered Rottweiler Archie. Such a great planned out place with peace of mind for ourselves to let our doggies enjoy themselves. Only regret was not booking longer as could easily spend longer there they really have thought of everything it’s a lovely place and love the quirky features. Will definitely be booking again and can’t wait for our next visit!

Amazing! Dogs absolutely loved it. The little cafe is so cute and such a lovely idea 🥰 …

We have been coming here for 6 years. It is doggie heaven! Only downside is one of my dogs barks constantly from leaving home all through the 40 minute journey as he is so excited and knows where we are going!! 😲 All the other dogs do the same when we leave the bypass! 😁 Always something new being added. Margaret has created an amazing place.

Fantastic facility for a dog birthday party! Large field area with plunge pool for the dogs and outdoor seating for the adults. Agility area for the budding crufts enthusiats or just for the dogs to run about daft. Then a beautiful wooded area with a stream for the dogs to cool down in the shade.

My favourite place in Ayrshire for a secure walk with my dogs. They give the perfect space for dogs to run in an open field whilst also having a lovely woodland area with a small stream in it. Perfect

An excellent adventure for dogs and kids alike. Our Hugo hated it!!! He hated waiting in the car for his turn, he hated going back in the car to go home. But he loved everything else that was on offer from the agility course to the plunge pool. He even paid his respect to he who went before him. All hail Axl. Back again, our Hugo is definitely living his best life right now

We and our dogs absolutely love it here. Been twice now and it's such an amazing feeling letting our little terriers off the lead to follow their noses until their heart is content! Highly recommend this place, the owners are obviously very passionate about making this an amazing place for the dogs (and us humans) to have fun! Haven't used the agility bit as ours are not into it. But they love the field and the go sniff area! Secure, fun and beautiful with the wood carvings and the fairy house. The Go Wash facilities are great and the owner is always there to make sure everything is ok or to see if you need any help. Last time we washed the dogs, they smelled lovely for weeks! Such lovely products, clean and very efficient shower! Thank you so much for creating this amazing place!

Go play go sniff is amazing for dogs & owners as ur dogs are off lead in a very secure area. All 3 areas are very well maintained and Margaret has put her heart & soul into making it the best place around for dogs would recommend to everyone

Been lots and lots of times. But sadly this was the first since our boy Hardi passed away he was lucky to have his own special visit before he passed away . Owners made sure he we could fulfil a bucket list for him they go above and beyond . Highly recommend here to anyone and if you haven't been what are you waiting for get booked !! Not just for dogs our family love it to so relaxing

Placed our dog for just over two weeks. He settled very well and came home full of beans. Happy to use them again.

Booked our dog in to cover our upcoming honeymoon this August directly after a successful stay in February. 2 weeks before our wedding and Knowhead are unresponsive to us on any means of communication, phone, text, Facebook or email. Had to find last minute accommodation for our dog, a simple reply to any of our communications even if they had made a mistake in the booking is the minimum level of customer service I expect to receive from a company. **update due to reply to review, we had been trying to contact for several weeks with no reply, if this was due to a holiday then fair enough but to this day, several weeks later we still have not recieved any correspondence from any messages we sent or answer phone messages we left, only a reply to this review**

Stan, our Vizsla, had a fantastic time with David, Katie & most of all his running pals! He had a 5 night stay & with daily updates with photos you’re guaranteed to have a worry free holiday knowing your pup is in safe hands. Thanks guys☺️

My boy been here for second time and he loved it. He was well looked after by Katie and David. Have booked him in for next year again

Here for doggy training class. Nice set up for training, agility course looks fun, informed they have fields for dogs to run around and play in also.

Plenty off open space and great people,horses welcome for livery

Riley had a ball here last time. Wouldn't have my boy go anywhere else

Fantastic service. Chase spent 6 nights and he came out a happy, healthy and clean dog. He really enjoyed his time at auntie pats and I would highly recommend them to anyone. He settled back in at home with no issues. He looks forward to his next visit.

Great experience using Auntie Pat’s. Jane is lovely and really looked after our cat, he seemed very happy when staying. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him in again.

We use Auntie Pat’s for our border terrier Sully, he’s been going to see Jane for over three years, as soon as we turn into the manicured driveway Sully knows exactly where he’s going and goes ballistic 🤣🤣🤣 he absolutely loves Jane and the family. He is obviously spoiled rotten, as I’m sure all the pets who have their holidays there are. My wife Linda and I can’t recommend Auntie Pats enough, if, for whatever reason, you are thinking of taking your pet to Jane, you can be rest assured they will be looked after like their own pets are.

I would to thank Jane and her family for looking after our cat “Teddy” this is a first class service from start to finish. We personally want to thank Jane and family for all they have done. Much Appreciated. Would highly recommend Aunty Pats.

Home from home!!! Bucky loves it at Auntie Pat's. I think Jane spoils him, as she spoils all the fur babies. We wouldn't leave Bucky anywhere else. Thank you Jane 😊 …

We have used Jane and Steel at auntie pat's a few times now and honestly can't fault them. The place is spotless, Jane is lovely and our dog loves going there. One of our holidays involved a flight delay which meant we were well out with our collection time and an extra nights stay for our dog was accommodated without any issues. I wouldn't take my dog anywhere else now👍

We have used Aunty Pats on 3 occasions now for our Frenchie Arnie. The level of care and love he receives when he stays is tremendous and is a much needed sense of relief when you can't take your dog on holiday with you. The facilities are first class as is the treatment received when dropping off and picking up him up. Arnie loves going and for us it is important to leave your Dog with a family that genuinely cares for and loves animals. We have used many other kennels over the years but we can fully relax knowing he is well loved when he stays here.

The best kennels I've used. I have a reactive nervous dog but he just loves it at Auntie Pat's, it's clean,warm and very welcoming for your fur babies, I highly recommend

Auntie Pat’s is the best kennels in Ayrshire. Our Springer Spaniel Harry, visits often and loves being spoiled by Jane who is very friendly and obviously passionate about caring for all the dogs boarding with her. She is friendly and well organised. Very clean kennels! 👍 …

Took my two little spaniels here for two weeks, was really worried how they would react to the kennel environment. Jane recommended bringing them in for a night to see how they cope it’s fair to say they loved it. The kennels and reception are so modern and clean. Fully recommend

A really lovely boarding venue - clean and tidy and nothing is too much trouble for the owner - Stormy loved the personal attention and will be back again soon. Many thanks Nicola for your very kind attention to my Stormy I won’t hesitate to bring her back.

Exclusively Spaniels is absolutely amazing, nicola is fantastic with all puppy friends 🐾 she is very reliable and very hard working, our sprocker absolutely loves his visits and daycare. She is very personal to each and everyone of her visitors

Fantastic care taken of my dog. Couldn't have asked for for any more, just great service.

Home from home petcare. Heidi loves to visit

Dogs are very yummy

Send our two beagles here regularly, lovely folks who are so helpful. Dogs always happy to visit & come back very tired (probably from all their howling!!) highly recommend :)

Cannot recommend these kennels ENOUGH! A lovely family team who have cared so well for my dogs each time we have been away (9 days for the latest stint). On collection the dogs are always happy, healthy, clean and thoroughly exhausted! We will not board them with anyone else now. Thank you Carbieston x

We regularly use the kennels, reliable, friendly people. Would recommend.

We’ve been using Carbieston Kennels for a number of years now and never had a single problem. Matt and Doreen are very accommodating, polite and friendly. We care very much about our dogs and have great confidence that they will be looked after well including a heated kennel in the Winter. They were recommended by a friend and we would certainly recommend them to anyone who wants their dogs looked after.

Been going here for years, always excellent and dogs quite happy to go! Recommended to everyone.

Took my rescue here as a small test to see what he was like around other dogs since usually he's quite snappy, would definitely recommend as the dogs were kept separately if required and actually bonded with their walker. Will definitely be back!

Been a customer for twelve years or so. Our two dogs are always happy and well looked after. Matthew and Doreen are always helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend. David and Maureen

I have twice contacted Carbieston kennels, whereupon it is evident that the responsibility of care for the dogs under their control falls far below the standards expected by the average dog owner. Specifically Carbieston Kennels, advised that the kennels will be unsupervised from the 23rd of Dec to the 27th of Dec and I quote from an email from them "Although we do have dogs staying with us over the festive period, from lunchtime on the 24th till the morning of the 27th December we do not have arrivals/departures. We trust you will appreciate that this is a convenient way to help folks out and also allow us to spend time with our own family" And in an earlier communication I had with Carbieston Kennels , I advised I would be arriving late at the kennels the solution offered by Carbieston Kennels was to leave my Dog in the car overnight until the next morning

I have just dropped my 6 precious dogs today. I couldn't have been given a better welcome. I absolutely hate leaving them but I feel they will be extremely well looked after. Can't wait to see them next week! Thank you to Matthew and your lovely team.

Very very very rude response from the male owner! Speaking to a potential customer like that, no idea who he thinks he is! Will certainly never attempt to use this kennel again, if you're looking for a fabulous kennel go to the country kennels and cattery near stair, only enquired with this one as country kennels were full!

I have two very elderly cats and have used North Ayrshire Pet Sitters for a few years. They have been great making sure both cats are safe and well and providing the daily medication. Its reassuring to get regular pictures and updates. Highly recommend their services.

North Ayrshire Pet sitters have looked after our 2 cats for over a year and I cannot recommend them highly enough. I have had many occasions this year where I have had to travel down south for family emergencies and Lorraine has always managed to accommodate me and I’ve not had to worry about my cats once.

As one of North Ayrshire Pet Sitters earliest customers the fact that we are still using their service a decade later speaks for itself. We are now on our second generation of cats and always have complete peace of mind that they are being taken care of properly; not simply fed but getting play and fussing during the visits. We receive daily updates with pictures, and we know that we will come home to find them well tended and befriended.

Absolutely outstanding service from Lorraine and Lorna. Otto has come on no end with his confidence and is now out walking alongside his pals and spends the weekend sulking until Monday comes around again.

Our cat Molly was recently looked after by the girls and we could not recommend them highly enough. They visited us before our holiday to meet us and Molly, gave us a time they would be visiting which was stuck to every day and send messages and pictures every day which put our minds at complete rest. I will have no hesitation using them again and would recommend to all. Thanks for looking after our girl so well!

Highly recommend Lorraine at North Ayrshire Pet Sitters. I have been using Lorraine for about 2 years since our eldest cat found it too stressful to go to cattery. Lorraine comes to the house, feeds them, sends updates and nothing is too much trouble, especially when I forget to leave extra treats. She also looks after the chickens, which is an added bonus. The kids love to get a picture through of the cats snoozing around the house. I trust Lorraine 100% and throughout the recent covid times she has put in extra reassuring measures. Highly recommend

We have an oddball assortment of rescue and ex-feral cats so a cattery isn’t really an option for us. Also, asking friends or relatives to look in on our cats twice a day feels a bit too much when everyone is busy….but, thankfully, Lorraine from North Ayrshire Pet Sitters came to our rescue! We were able to go away for an over-night break, safe in the knowledge that Lorraine would be popping in to feed them their breakfast and dinner and making sure they were all ok. Lorraine sent us a wee picture of the cats when she popped in to see them, and I have to say it was really nice to see them looking content whilst we weren't there and gave us great peace of mind. We returned home to very happy cats! Based on our recent experience I would 100% highly recommend Lorraine from North Ayrshire Pet Sitters to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Fantastic service. I immediately felt at ease after meeting Lorraine and knew my cats would be in good hands. I got updates every day, twice a day. And most importantly, my cats loved them 😀. I highly recommend North Ayrshire Pet Sitters. …

Lorraine at North Ayrshire Pet Sitters has been looking after my 8 month pup for the last year and has been very accommodating with late requests due to my work schedule. She has been really great with my lab and always sends photos when out on walks or playing which is good updates. Lorraine is good with nervous or wary dogs as she is very patient and understanding .

I've been using this business for over 18 months now & Lorraine has taken my dog for walks in all kinds of weather, she has never let us down. I am disabled & was worried about my dog not getting enough exercise or having to be left alone too long while I attend hospital appointments so called on this business to help, I have never regretted it. My dog waits at the window for her to arrive every time so he's obviously happy & that's what I wanted. Trustworthy, cheerful & reliable, her attention to detail due to the Coronavirus lately has to be admired, her van has everything she needs to keep herself & her 'clients' safe. Highly recommend this business to look after your pets.

Holly is simply amazing and always has looked after all my rabbits without me needing to worry at all. To be honest, I probably think of her and Hec as friends anyway. My rabbit Greta cannot recommend her enough 🐰

She was fantastic and looked after my guineas' pigs and bearded dragon when we where on holiday and we will be using her again 😀 …

Great help for our two Guinea Pigs. Had them in for a 'spa day', wask, fur cut and nail trim. Very helpful and friendly service

Holly is fantastic with my pets, it's such a relief being able to go away and know they're being wonderfully cared for. Highly recommended!

Always take our guinea pigs to hollys when we go away.Holly is Reliable and friendly and knows how to look after small animals. Why not book your animals in for a pamper day whilst they are there

Friendly,helpful, very fast response when asked questions. Great price. Wouldn't hesitate to use again. Thank you very much for taking care of Mac and Carra.

Our bunnies have stayed at holly hops loads of times over the years.

Holly is great with the pets and spoils them rotten
