Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
Jerry gets a five star in every area! We actually connected on the phone before he ever arrived but once he got here, it was like we known each other forever! He was very thorough and how he was going to take care of the dogs and the house!! very friendly with the dogs, and they immediately connected with him!! dogs know when they are💖💖 he arrived early so he could become familiar with Circus and tinker and the house and we had a meal together and quickly became best friends! He sent pictures while we were away and updates. Every day. He was gone by the time we came back, but it honestly looked like he had never been in the house. Everything was perfect just like we left it.❗️❗️❗️ so if you’re looking for a Pet Sitter that is reliable in every way, and you know for sure is going to take good care of your pets this man is the one you want to have come to your home❗️❗️ you won’t be disappointed and I can promise you that💖🎉
The best house and dog sitters you could ever ask for! They love and take care of our dogs like we do and do the same with our home. Thank you so much Ken and Jane! You are very much appreciated and loved by us, Jules and Lexi ❤️😇🐶
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
Emily and Chris were absolutely incredible house and pet sitters. They took care of our dog and two cats for 10 days and were some of the best sitters we've ever had. They took amazing care of all three animals -- giving medicine to our aging dog and managing to befriend our very shy cats on day one. We received adorable picture and video updates each day and it was clear that the pets loved spending time with them. Additionally they left the house in pristine shape and were incredibly diligent in all aspects -- bringing in packages, taking out the trash and recycling, etc. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Joe arrived some days before I left, so I could show him some nice places in Switzerland and he had enough of time to learn all about the dogs and how to handle them. He is an amazing nice and an animal/natur loving person who took care of my dog with incredible affection when I was in vacation. I could really enjoy it, because I knew, everything is ok at home. He sent me picutres and I could see, how much fun they have together. He cooked for the dogs, mad a lot of nice hikes with them and huged them, when they need it - so he even got the trust from Artu (as a man really not easy). And not only that, he made woodruff punch for me and sowed my tomatoes and spoiled them with melt water. And he helped also the women which looked after the horses and helped her to going walk with them. Generelly he is super friendly, so everyone in the village likes him. He is considerate of your belongings and has handed the house back neatly. He is just the best. I'm so gratuful he was here. So, if you have a chance to get him as a sitter, take it. Your animals will be grateful to you and have a good time while you are on vacation. Joe, you're not just a dog sitter for me. You were so familiar to me from the first moment. We had a lot of fun and we already miss you sooooo much. I'm really looking forward to see you again in some monthes.
Duha was such a light to have in our home while we were away. She kept us updated with beautiful photos of our dogs throughout her stay and didn’t leave their side once. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other sitter and I truly hope this won’t be the last time she sits for us.
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
Christina handled Bridie's first-ever time without us perfectly. We returned after 5 days to a happy, well-cared for and well-exercised pup --- and an emaculate house. Christina knows dogs and helped us with a few Bridie issues. We got photos and some updates while away. She was flexible and very sensitive to all of our needs. Chrisrina is the best sitter that we have ever had.

Penny has been going to Hackney Hounds since she was a pup and she's absolutely loved it from day one. You leave your dog with Camille and the team knowing not only they'll be in safe hands, but they're genuinely loved and cared for as if they were one of their own. Penny is always so excited to see Cammy and the team - it's a really special thing and I wouldn't leave her anywhere else.
Alfie has been going to Hackney Hounds for over a year starting as a puppy and now as an adventure pup. We only have to mention Camille’s name and he gets excited. He can’t wait to get there and runs in without a backward glance. Camille gets to know each pup individually and Alfie has grown from a shy puppy to a confident, sociable, happy and friendly dog and gets compliments on his manners and behaviour. As an older pup they all get taken to a different open park, forest or heath each time for an outdoor adventure, running as a pack, and possibly swimming. On return they have the run of the beautiful garden and indoor area and more play with all the many toys. We can follow his day on Instagram with the many videos and photos taken. Alfie returns home contented, tired and very very happy.
We’re bringing Pippo twice a week to Camille and he absolutely loves it! He changed during that time a lot and is so much more relaxed. Everybody at Hackney Hounds is just amazing and super carrying. He actually can’t wait to get out on the days he’s spending with Camille and the team. I can just absolutely recommend the service and I can say that I’m super glad that I found them. Flexibility and the extra services (see photo below) are just amazing. I love to have a look at their Insta stories when I’m about to fall asleep in boring meetings. Tried some other services but this one is out of this world!!!
Taco loves Hackney Hounds! Cammy provides an amazing experience for the dogs: she takes them all around London to explore new areas, engages and develops them through fun games and activities, helps them play well together and generally become model dog citizens! Taco is always eager to go and comes back happy and exhausted from an active day with his friends. - Sitar Woof woof woof woof woof!! - Taco Photo of Taco waiting to go to HH
Our first grooming experience in London and it couldn't have been better! Cammy is clearly a dog lover and our maltipoo Max was actually sad to leave when we picked him up. She took the time to get out his mats and communicated with us every step of the way. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Cammy!
Cammy is just amazing! We have put our little cockerpoo puppy into her playgroup twice a week and the positive changes we have seen in him as a result are incredible; He is more sociable, independent, well behaved and settled, plus he came home house trained one day! He comes home so happy and tired after hanging out with his puppy mates all day and from the longs walks and attention that Cammy gives to each individual dog. Cammy thinks of all the small details - from regular updates on WhatsApp of how Arthur is getting along on that day, to sending him home of his last day pre-Christmas with a homemade card for us and a bone for him! Cammy also grooms Arthur for us, which is no easy task considering he is a very wiggly 5month old! But she does a brilliant job and knows exactly how to groom his luscious but unruly locks!! :) We simply cannot recommend Cammy and Hackney Hounds highly enough!
I am unbelievably grateful to Cammy & the team at Hackney Hounds for offering such an excellent service - and indeed for existing! I have been taking my puppy to puppy playground since he was old enough to go - and he absolutely loves it - racing to the door upon arrival every single time. I love the care that goes into the programs, whether it be Puppy Playground or Adventure Pups. Do not hesitate to sign up - Cammy & her team will care for your little furry friend as if they were their very own!
My pup Pochi absolutely loves her day at Adventure Pups! She started in the puppy group and thanks to the wonderful guidance from the HH team made huge progress with her recall and has learned how to play properly with other pups. I also love all the updates we get during the day. I'm not sure what we would do without HH – thank you!
When we got our precious puppy we knew the day might come where we’d be back in the office and have to have some help looking after her - we decided to trust our little one to the care of Cammy & Team at Hackney Hounds and what an AMAZING decision that was! She started in their amazing puppy playgroup and then graduated to Adventure pups! She absolutely loves going to Hackney Hounds and drags us all the way there every week for her day playing in the group! We also get the most incredible Instagram updates from the team each day she’s there so we know she’s safe and happy on her adventures. The play, care and attention she gets at Hackney House is unmatched and we’re so grateful for all the love she’s given. Would 1000% recommend to anyone considering. Thank you Cammy! X
Ozzy absolutely loves his Hackney Hounds days! He’s been going since 14 weeks, and the progression from puppy playgroup to adventure pups has been great. Cammy and her crew truly love each and every pup and treat them like their own, and the focus on learning puppy skills is really unique to their set up. I know that when we drop Ozzy off with Cammy, he is safe, happy, and will come home exhausted! Even though it’s a bit of a travel for us to get there, we keep going back to HH as it’s just such a great little community and it means our city pup gets to explore the great outdoors!
Trixie has been attending George and Friends for almost 2 years now. She's 13 so they usually take her out with the little doggies because she can't run as much. They are so great with her. Every Wednesday she gets so excited on pick up. When she gets home, she's exhausted from all the adventures she's had. Jess is amazing with her and Paul loves her as if she was his own dog:) We couldn't be happier with the care and love they provide her. This is the best doggy day care.
Our little frenchie loves spending time at George and Friends, she’s always excited to be collected and it’s a real treat to see updates from her day with all her furry friends. Highly recommend this doggy day care.
Paul and his amazing team at George & Friends have been absolutely fantastic with our sausage pup, Norman, who has attended their doggy day care for a couple of years. The team is knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about what they do, making our little man feel right at home. We also appreciate their help and care when occasionally looking after Norman while we're on holiday. We highly recommend George & Friends for their reliable and loving service!
Our pup attended for about a year - & safe to say that the staff at G&F are amongst his favourite humans ever! We always knew he would be well looked after, and get lots of exercise and all important rest time too - quite difficult at first for our bouncy sprollie. Definitely recommend if your dog is the sociable type that gets on well with other dogs.
G&F are the friendliest and most caring doggy daycare you could ever hope to find. Their love of dogs shines through everything they do. There is a huge sense of joy and fun for the doggies every single day. G&F are also incredibly reliable and will never let you down.
Our dog Toby loves his days at George & Friends! He races down the stairs ahead of us to get to the block door when they come to pick him up. He’s very happy and very tired after daycare. And the pics and vids they post everyday make my week! The staff are all lovely and have been flexible with us when we’ve needed it.
The best dog day care you could ever want or wish for. George and his team quickly got to know Elvis and to support his FOMO. He loved going to day care. As a dog mum I knew he was in the best care and with a team who loved him.
Such a fabulous daycare. The dogs are really well taken care of. You can tell Paul & his team are dedicated & love what they do Elton always leave the house with such excitement & comes back completely knackered! Special thank you for organising the best birthday pawties.
This crew really is the best. Great communication and organisation and such care and affection for the dogs they look after. Our dog adores her time there and I feel very confident in them.
Our dog has attended George and Friends for just under two years so unlike some of the comments below, this is actually a genuine review....! Paul and his team are fantastic and genuinely care for all the dogs entrusted to them. They are incredibly prompt, very communicative and totally trust worthy. Our dog is totally wild with excitement when she hears the doorbell go and belts out of the door the second Paul arrives. The licks and tail wags say it all - there is no place she would rather be going to (and we don’t blame her - what other daycare hosts birthday parties and has Christmas meals....!). We have tried other daycares and moved because we were not satisfied but our experience with George and Friends has always been positive and one we would have no concerns about recommending to anyone considering putting their precious pups into daycare!
We can't recommend Happy Hounds enough. Our dog Coco, loves his sitter Ellie. She's is amazing, looks after Coco so well and we can see that every time she comes to pick him up. He's so so happy to see her and to go with her. Everything is very organised and so easy to manage on the website and we get multiple updates daily by whatsapp. Chloe is also very nice and so helpful with any questions you have. Unfortunately we're leaving the area and Coco won't be able to join daycare with Ellie anymore. If you're looking for a doggy daycare you're on the right place, they understand perfectly how important your pet is for you and they do anything to help the pet feel happy and the owners too. Do your pet and yourself a favor and enroll your pet with Happy Hounds :)
We have been using Happy Hounds and Cooler Cats for years and the service from Chloe and the team is amazing. Our dog always comes back so happy from his group walks and it’s clear he enjoys his time with his walkers immensely. The team’s help has been invaluable to us, making sure he gets the exercise and fun he needs, especially during our busiest times!
We've been working with Happy Hounds for a few months now and feel very lucky to have them. We experienced a few of their dog walkers and sitters, who've all been incredibly professionals, accommodating and caring for our dog. Highly recommend their services.
We have been using HH+CC since we moved to the area for our cat and then our puppy (now all grown up). The team are amazing for regular daycare, walks, holiday sitting and manage to accommodate my last- minute requests! They even were able to help make my dog part of our wedding day ❤️ trusted and professional - highly recommend (special shout out to Kerry and Samantha) x
I got in touch with Happy Hounds when it was time to return to work (having gained a puppy during lockdown) and they were so helpful in getting me set up with recurring services, answering any questions I had and they made leaving my puppy to return to work so much easier both emotionally and practically. My pup really enjoys the daycare and the socialisation has helped her a lot in many training aspects (even if there is still work to do). They also provide daily updates (with pics) of your pooch while they're gone which is super reassuring and something to brighten your day. They're very fairly priced and just seem like a lovely bunch of people who love what they do. I'd definitely recommend this services to other dog owners - my puppy loves going and I don't have to worry at all while she's gone.
Without doubt the best dog walking service that we have ever used. The team at Happy Hounds are completely professional and always accommodating of last minute requests as best as they can. Our dog Dalton adores his walkers, is always excited to be picked up and comes home exhausted and happy, ready for a nap. We are sent videos of his outings which is really lovely for us, and the walkers are always vigilant to any changes in behaviour and report back to us if they have any concerns. It is a relief to know that our precious boy is in such safe and loving hands. Thanks Happy Hounds!
Had our first boarding experience with Johanna who watched Olive for us and I must say how comfortable my husband and I felt with her ! She stayed in touched with us, sent photos and updates..and put a business contact number tag on her collar just in case anything were to happen ..I really appreciated that extra safety..as someone who suffers with anxiety and I always worry about my pup when we go away, I can say I feel quite at ease knowing she will be in good hands with her ! Thank you again
I honestly can't speak highly enough about Happy Hounds. After recently moving to east london with my two dogs and having to work some days in the office, I felt very anxious about who would walk my dogs when I was at work. My dogs are my world and whilst looking online it dawned on me that I was actually trying to find someone to walk the most important thing I own. I felt so relieved to come across Happy Hounds. They are very responsive and helped me with all my queries. My dog walker from Happy Hounds is the loviest person and I couldn't feel happier knowing my babies are in such safe hands! Highly recommend their service. Thanks Happy Hounds!
We contacted Happy Hounds to organise daycare for our dog Ludo while I was pregnant, so that we could have some extra help to see me through the new born stage. My son is now 18 months and we’ve only now said our goodbyes! The service is excellent, so friendly and they always gave an update inc photos on the days Ludo was in daycare. Thanks to Chloe and the team.
I can’t rave about Happy Hounds more! My Zeppelin comes back looking adorable every time he goes there for a groom. Very kind & lovely people too! They do a perfect job.
I’ve been sending my two rabbits to Charlie for a few years and am always so happy with the love and care they receive with every stay. They get plenty of fresh veggies and outdoor time, and for me photo updates so I’m at ease while travelling. Even after a couple weeks away from home, both buns are very relaxed and that is down to Charlie’s outstanding knowledge of pet care and the welcoming environment she creates.
Charlie did a phenomenal job with our two pet rabbits! I was going on vacation for two weeks and I did extensive research to find the best pet hotel for my babies. Charlie went above and beyond with them. She made sure there was always lots of play time and provided beautiful photos when I asked for updates. She also helped clip their names and groom them! It was also super reassuring knowing my bunnies had access to A/C during the London summer heat! Have already rebooked for some future vacations but I can’t think of anyone better to have look after my bunnies ❤️
I often leave my rabbit, Robin, with Charlie when I go away as I know he will be in safe hands! He's been coming to A Furry World, for a few years now and seems to enjoy himself on his little adventures. I love that Charlie sends picture updates of what he's up to, and provides that extra bit of reassurance as an experienced animal carer. I always know that Robin is being well looked after, and he gets the added benefit of playing in the garden sometimes, which must be a real treat as don't have access to one at home! Highly recommend :)
Charlie was absolutely brilliant. She looked after our Hamster Nibbles while we were on holiday and we had complete peace of mind that he was being very well cared for. She sent regular pictures to us and always responded quickly to any communication. Would 100% recommend her to look after your pets!
My Guinea pigs love it there! Since finding Charlie I would not leave my piggies anywhere else, they are extremely well looked after and always come home happy and relaxed. Charlie would send pictures and updates to let me know how the piggies were getting on which helped me relax and enjoy my time away. Highly recommend by me and piggies :)
Charlie looks after both of my bunnies when we go away, she takes excellent care of them. I actually think they don’t want to come home! Communication is great and we receive photos and videos of the bunnies whilst away which is lovely. Gives me peace of mind to leave them in safe hands.
Charlie at A Furry World is an absolute godsend! I have now used her pet sitting services for my bunny babies three times in the last year - most recently for 11 days whilst travelling. Charlie is professional, caring and a genuine pet lover. She keeps you updated with how your pet is doing through emails and photos and puts the wellbeing of your pet at the forefront - confidently escalating any health concerns where necessary. My bunnies love her and I would happily use her services again in the future.
Charlie looked after my two rabbits over the Christmas holidays and did a fantastic job (complete with update photos, one attached!) Very happy and will definitely use the service at A Furry World again, thank you
Charlie is amazing!!! Felt so calm and reassured the entire time our guinea pigs were with her. She really goes the extra mile to ensure they have the best stay possible. She even gave them a nail clip for us! Thank you Charlie!
Furry World provided our bunny a caring and loving environment for the duration of it's stay with them. The proprietor is friendly, communicative and clearly cares a lot about the little creatures. We received regular updates on the rabbit's exploits including photos, which gave further assurance the bunny was having a cracking holiday away us:) Highly recommended !
My standard dachshund has been going for over a year. She leaps from her bed whenever they show up for pickup. She is always excited to spend a day with other dogs and comes home happy and exhausted. The staff is responsive and helpful via email. Scheduling on their app is easy. I love getting the updates from the team on chime showing my dog playing with her friends. They are kind, helpful, and professional. Their services have been a real life saver.
We take our 6 month puppy here once a week and he loves it. We get regular updates of our puppy and his new friends and the owners/staff are really friendly and inviting. They also do checks to make sure the dogs are fully vaccinated etc make sure all the dogs in their care are friendly. Our puppy is very tired when he gets home after a full day of socialising with all the other wonderful dogs in Great and Small Dog Care. Very happy and would definitely recommend ☺️
Molly has been going to Great and Small Dog Care for almost 4 years. She is always happy and excited when picked up and enjoys her time with the other dogs. We’ve found the service reliable and trustworthy, with genuine dog lovers.
I can't recommend Great and Small Dog Care highly enough. My dog was very happy and well cared for attending daycare on a weekly basis for over a year. Never an issue and always responsive to any questions or concerns I had. Obviously the priority was for my dog to be happy and cared for but also as a single busy professional the peace of mind knowing that he was ok whilst I was at the office made my life that much easier. I am no longer living in London which is the only reason he no longer attends....although I did ask if they would collect him from my place of work so he could continue with them but unfortunately (yet understandably) we are now outside the catchment area :)
My dog Pickles, the dachshund, has been going to daycare here typically once a week for over a year and a half. She is excited to go and see her other pup friends, play, and go on walks. The daycare usually sends a photo and update during her stay which we really like receiving. We utilise their drop off service in the evening which is helpful since we can’t always get away from work to do pick-up. The only thing we would prefer is if the hours were a little bit longer. Overall, great experience!
BEWARE. I am writing this here to save others the pain that I, and my partner, have endured at the hands of this organisation. We looked to move our dog from a previous daycare to a closer one for work-reasons and found Great and Small Dog Care through Google. There were nothing but issues from the start. Our dog would often come home with the wrong lead, missing bag and once injured from 'walks' with other dogs. We also kept in contact with the company hoping issues would be rectified as we spent more time getting to know the staff. This is where the issue lies. The staff turnover is high and the dependence on individual contractors means different people looking after the dogs each day. The dogs do not seem to be in safe hands. Case in point, our dog was dropped off at our apartment most recently and not securely placed in his crate as requested in the notes. The excuse given was the member of staff was an individual contractor and had not read the notes. Our dog unfortunately got out and damaged property (shoes and upholstery) as well as spreading mud over the apartment. We were left astonished at the lack of communication around this and attempted to call the dog-care centre to discuss how best to move forward. We were met with what one can only describe as severe aggression and apathy. I feel compelled to warn others about this dishonesty and sheer unkindness of this business and for reference have added photos to this review showing in blue our message to the dog-care and, in white, their response. We are in utter disbelief that any human, let alone business, would find it acceptable to speak to another in such a manner. They have threatened in their reply with anger in place of looking to resolve any issue we had. They do not answer telephone calls as is stated in their e-mail below, and they will certainly not look to rectify any issues that arise. BEWARE. Stay safe and avoid this business at all costs. I am more than happy to be contacted by anyone who might also have experienced issues with this daycare (as it seems this is not a sole incident with us) or anyone thinking about placing their dog in the care of this company. We have luckily saved all our correspondence and photos of the incidents raised with the organisation and would be happy to share.
Our dog Barbara the Whippet is always so excited when she gets picked up by Great and Small Dog Care. Also when she sees one of the dog walkers in the park she always has a waggy tail. So it's 5 stars from her! She is always very tired when she comes home after a day of playing! It is really convenient. So simple to book her in for any one off additional days. They are reliable.
Our puppy Floki, attends a couple of days a week and it's the highlight of the week for her. she absolutely loves spending time there and playing with the other dogs. The team are great, very friendly and communicative. I love the pics and videos throughout the day and knowing our pup is in such safe hands is such a relief. Would definitely recommend.
Great and Small Dog Care are wonderful, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. My dog Luna has been going to daycare several times a week for 8 months now, and she absolutely loves it. She's excited when she gets picked up in the mornings, and the times when I drop her off, she can't wait to go in. When Luna suffered an injury while on a walk with me, they checked in to see how she was doing and were understanding of her needs. In addition, communication during and about appointments is excellent (I love the pictures I get during the day), and they're accommodating of reasonable schedule changes. Luna and I are so happy that we've found them!
My corgi puppy Nugget has been attending dog day care for the past 3 months. The team is fantastic, Nugget can’t wait to be picked up in the morning and gets super excited when they arrive. I regularly receive photos and videos and updates of Nugget playing with other dogs. I highly recommend the day care services we couldn’t have asked for a better daycare in the area! Thank you!

Miranda and Sam have been cat sitters for my cats for the last 5 years. They are absolutely fantastic! Clear communication and updates following each visit, incredibly professional and the most important thing they really care about the cats. As my boys have gotten older Miranda and Sam have been brilliant able to give them extra TLC when needed as well as following increasingly complicated food and medication regimes! When my flight was delayed it was no problem to book in an emergency additional visit. Knowing they are caring for them gives me the peace of mind to be able to go away knowing they are in safe hands and truly cared for. Would highly recommend, you could not ask for better people to be caring for your cats
Quality of care of our cats was good over the course of a year but sadly two unacceptable behaviours resulted in us having to end Miranda cat sitting for us. Firstly, Miranda would send passive aggressive messages to us (on multiple occasions) while we were away which we felt was completely unnecessary and inappropriate and would often upset us while we were trying to enjoy our time away. Secondly, we recently found out that Miranda and Sam (her sister) lied about visiting our cats - they sent the same set of photos from another visit and thought we wouldn't notice. When we respectfully confronted them about it, Miranda continued to lie and got very aggressive with us. What was also disappointing was that this was one of the hottest weekends of the year and the cats were stuck inside with no-one to check on them. Overall, we realised that we couldn't trust Miranda (or Sam) to care for our cats appropriately or deal with us professionally. Such a shame that it ended this way.
Miranda is excellent! She had a great, patient approach with my anxious cat and sent us regular updates with photos. She has also been extremely accommodating with our schedule changes and requirements, and really took the time to get to know our cat, her personality and needs. Will absolutely book again :)
I was very happy with the service from Miranda at Mischievous Meows looking after my cats. She is very attuned, attentive and nurturing to my cats and I noticed they were very happy after having spent time with Miranda. She is clearly diligent and she is also reliable and where she said she would be, so accountable and reputable. I would highly recommend her services to any who are going away and do not want to use boarding as an option and have kitties cared for from the comfort of home. I trust Miranda and I can see she is only focussed on the wellbeing of the cats and I found my home in same condition as I left it. 5 star service!!
Miranda looked after my cat last week, and I was so happy with the service she provided. The updates and photos she sent were lovely, and i felt like I had left my cat in safe hands. Would 100% recommend!
I highly recommend Miranda for cat sitting- she is very trustworthy, good communication and has an easy, efficient booking process. My cat, Michael-Scott, is always very calm and content after Miranda’s visit. Miranda is very knowledgable on cats and is very caring. I always have peace of mind and can rely on her when I’m away.
We never left our cats alone before, so Miranda had to deal with two crazy cats and our separation anxiety. She did a great job in both areas. We feel confident that, when we have to leave our kittens at home for a while, they will be in the best hands. I recommend Miranda without any reservation.
From the first visit, Miranda was brilliant with our nervous young cat, who is usually very shy around strangers but warmed to her straight away. Excellent service, keeping us up to date and setting our minds at ease throughout our first time leaving our cat. Highly recommended.
Miranda looked after my two cats while I went on holiday. I would recommend her service too anyone and everyone. Although one of my cats hid the whole time, she still tried to calm him and get him to warm up to her. My other kitten would with growl with toys which amazingly stopped after Mirandas time with her. It's clear that this isn't just a job for her but she genuinely loves cats. She gave me such piece of mind leaving them for a week, which was my first time leaving them that long. Every visit she made she would send an update and pictures. Will 100% be a returning client when I have to go away again. I returned to two very happy cats who were well looked after.
Miranda has taken care of our cat several times when we have been away. She had always made sure to give him the best possible care, spending time playing with him and sending us photos every day. Miranda is very reliable and always makes herself available to suit our schedule. It is a huge relief knowing that someone who genuinely cares about our pet is visiting him while we are away. I have no hesitation in recommending her services.
Our pup Rafi is so well taken care of with Hounds of Hackney. When the time comes to leave for daycare, he is bursting with excitement and the photos and videos shared throughout the day show how much love and care is given to the dogs over the course of the day. He comes home pooped every day! The team have always been super responsive and flexible. We started with dog walking, but it was an easy decision to move to day care and they even handle his grooming. All around great service and I would strongly recommend them.
I take my dog Graham here every few weeks for a spa day where he always is brushed and washed and returned to me fluffy as ever! He absolutely loves them, pulls me all the way there every time. Here he is after his last groom, literally glowing in the sun at Hackney Downs. So grateful they are so close by to keep him cute and happy.
Hounds of Hackney has honestly changed my life for the better!! So kind, patient and caring they have really built my rescue dog' confidence up. She Loves them!! And I get loads of videos and photos everyday to see this for myself :) Love it!! They are 100% reliable, whatever I need, even last minute changes to my schedule, they are there for us! They have made being a single dog Mum in the city so much easier, it really is weight lifted off my shoulders having found such great people :) Wouldn't have anyone else now! Please don't get them too booked up ;p we like them all to ourselves hehe
We took our 8 month old cockapoo puppy, Claude for his first puppy groom. He looks absolutely amazing - lovely haircut, very soft, and smells lovely. Will definitely return and would recommend.
Top doggie day care in London! My dog goes to them over 3 years since he was a puppy and absolutely loves them (they love him back too). They always give a great care to each one and I can tell from my dog coming back home exhausted but very happy. As an owner, I’m very lucky to find them and secure a weekly spot, they are essential to my life and of course my dog’s life☺️
My recently adopted rescue dog has started going to Hounds of Hackney a couple of times a week. They’ve been really flexible and accommodating as she has some anxiety and is a bit of a timid thing. They seem to love the dogs they look after and share lots of update photos and videos. Would definitely recommend. They do a great Wash & Go too! 🐶
Every time Hounds of Hackney Groomers are doing an amazing job! They always take our feedback on board and making sure we are 100% satisfied. Gizmo is always happy to go back there. He has absolutely no fear which makes me feel much more comfortable knowing he is enjoying his time! They are extremely professional and friendly and it’s always exciting to go back! Thanks to all of the Hounds of Hackney team for taking such a great care of Gizmo x
Hounds of Hackney are great! From the first time we spoke / met the guys it was so clear that they had a such a passion and care for dogs! They know there stuff too! They’ve given us lots of great advice for our little pup! They are really quick to respond and have catered to all our pups need so far! Definitely recommend!
The team at Hounds of Hackney are incredible. They always provide a great service, and clearly care a lot about every dog they look after. They share photo updates of my pups time with them, work on training and socializing your pet and are always available to answer questions and offer advice. I wouldn't want anyone else looking after my dog!
Hounds of Hackney are the best! Our little Boston Terrier has been coming here a few days a week for the last few months and always has a great time socialising with other dogs in a safe environment. All of the staff are fantastic and accommodating. Be sure to follow their Instagram too - plenty of pupdates to enjoy while your dog is having a great time playing
Kidan looked after Peanut during our trip overseas. She has great communication always updating us with Peanut so we didn’t have to worry and can enjoy our holiday. Thank you so much!
My cat loves Kidan from central London pet care. She is attentive, loving, and always ensure my cat is happy. Highly recommended!
We have been sending our puppy to hairy hounds of Hackney. She absolutely loves going to daycare - she squeals with excitement everyday she is dropped at the gate as she cannot wait to get inside. Edita and team are absolutely lovely, they send us regular updates and you can tell how much they care for each and every dog. This is a truly unique daycare as the dogs have different activities and games they do throughout the day along with quiet time and naps (our pup's favourite!). As our pup joined at a very young age Edita and the team were very attentive and they kept her warm with cuddles, blankets and hot water bottles. This gave us a lot of peace of mind. We have seen such improvement to our pup's behaviour from going to daycare she is very friendly with humans and dogs, and Edita has given us lots of helpful tips on training our pup. We cannot recommend this day care enough. Thank you HHH!
Cannot recommend Hairy Hounds enough. Enzo (our male Rhodesian Ridgeback) joined when he was 12 weeks old and the advice and help from Edita & team has been invaluable. They reinforce all of our commands and have 100% contributed to helping develop him into the well mannered boy that he is today. They are caring, trustworthy and fun and strict! Daycare can be very hit and miss and we can honestly say Hairy Hounds is amazing.
My very new rescue Levi, a mix from Morocco (maybe a bit of lurcher, maybe a bit of border collie in there?), had both the home training and the outdoor 1:1 training with Edita. She was absolutely amazing - I love how calm she is and how everything... just made sense, and Levi trusted her and listened to her immediately. He had a blast - tail wagging the whole time - and was clearly learning. Brilliant and thorough notes afterwards (good, for my sieve-like brain). I was excited but wary of training before - but this made me feel inspired and motivated. With Edita, I could see the well-behaved dog that Levi could become and helping him get there seems achievable and fun for both Levi and me.
I have used Edita from Hairy Hounds for one-to-one training sessions with my puppy. It's had an immediate effect, and provided very clear guidance as to how to achieve certain goals, both in the house and outside. She is very confident and very clear about what the right approach is. Strongly recommended.
Hairy Hounds is absolutely fantastic. Our energetic mini-schnauzer Charlie has been going to daycare 3 days a weeks since she was 4 months old. With Edita and her team's help Charlie has matured from a very boisterous puppy to a beautifully mannered little dog that we can take everywhere with us. Charlie adores going to daycare and cannot get to the door fast enough when she is picked up. It is also so reassuring to be able to leave her for holidays knowing she is having a great time with her doggy and human friends. We are so grateful to Hairy Hounds for enabling us to have a dog whilst working full time and cannot recommend it enough.
Edita and her team have changed my pup from whirling dervish to a calm and spirited wonderdog! When my little toy Poodle joined HHH he was happy and energetic, but boundaryless and seemed to NEVER run out of the desire to play, jump around and run up to every dog in sight! Cut to a few months later and he's like a new pup. He's regulated and calm - sure he still gets the zoomies and his cheeky personality is still evident; but he's discerning about who he plays with and much more able to occupy himself and have fun alone. He knows when he's tired and when he needs a walk. I was always worried that 'training' would train his personality away, but instead it's made way for his character to shine unfettered by hyper-alertness and over exertion. HHH is a fantastic daycare and I've learned so much about my dog as a result. Edita and the team offer structure as a way to get your dog to its most happy self and will forever be grateful for helping them to grow my bond with him and see him close-up as the wonderful little chap he is. THANK YOU!
We had our first training session with Edita and look forward to joining the daycare, it was exactly what we needed and plan on repeating it weekly with hopes of training Everest to a service dog level. It is really great that Edita possesses the knowledge to train dogs both hearing and deaf, since our Dalmatian was born deaf and many trainers lack the right approach or don’t want to take on the challenge. 10/10 recommend the training sessions for dogs with special needs as well, we already see improvements in Everests’s pulling and vibration recall!
Not just any doggy day care .. HAIRY HOUNDS OF HACKNEY is the absolute bomb!! Dog paradise I would say! Our very lively Boston Terrier has been lucky enough to have been with Hairy Hounds since she was a puppy .. Truly couldn't have managed our spirited dog with out the services of the Edita and her great team. So Edita is the owner but she also has another name 'The Dog Whisperer" .. well thats what all of us owners call her. Honestly you could have 30 dogs in a room and you would be able to hear a pin drop .. no lie! The dogs in her care are stimulated through play and walks and learn great behaviour skills as well as down time .. snuggling up round the wood burning stove .. What more can I say .,. its a special place .. a rare find ...
The HHH ‘Puppy & Young Dogs Training Class’ has not just changed our dog, it’s changed our lives! We’ve seen immediate, continuous improvement in our puppy. But more than that, it has given us the confidence and the tools to communicate what we want from our dog in a way that he understands. Perhaps it should be called ‘new-pet-parent’ training instead! 😂 He has learned how to be a respectful little housemate, how to wait and 'leave-it' on command and even how to walk nicely in the busy and distracting London streets. My personal favourite was the last class, where Edita taught us the secret ingredient to the most enjoyable park visits with your pooch. We can’t thank Edita and the HHH crew enough! ❤️
Edita and the team are absolutely incredible! They supportively welcomed our Leo, and gave him a warm, structured and beautiful space to play. He’s so much happier, loves the intellectual stimulation he gets with training and agility, and (for an older dog) comes home with so much puppy energy! 🐶 …
I highly recommend House My Pet to any professional looking to expand their pet service business. The platform not only offers a reliable way to reach clients but also fosters a community of pet owners who value quality care.
I have used dozens of dog sitting companies over the years and I've never come across a company quite like House My Pet. What makes House My Pet unique, is that they take the time to find the perfect person to look after your pet, so not only your pet feels at ease but you do too! My dogs have absolutely loved their experience with the sitters chosen so far and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anybody.
I have felt so uncomfortable about leaving my spaniel with just anyone that I’ve avoided going abroad for 3 years! This is a brilliant service and put me totally at ease! Highly recommend!
House My Pet was refreshingly easy to use and navigate with rapid responses - would definitely recommend and use again!
Wonderful service! Gives me a peace of mind finding credible and competent pet sitters!
Simply great, highly reccomend using this site to find a reputable pet sitter.
Sylvia is a perfect host for our beloved Bonia. She loves all her dogs and it is definitely mutual 😂 I receive daily photo and video updates on my dogs vacation and I feel envy as it seems that my dog is constantly having a better time than me on my holiday. I couldn't be happier and I can surely recommend Muddy Boots to everyone …
Jules has been staying with Sylvia weekly from around 4.5 months old and absolutely loves spending the day there with her friends. We always get a video update daily and you can see she is having the best time! Totally recommend, and thanks to Sylvia for everything!
Fantastic experience, and highly recommend. Benji’s first doggy holiday away from family he absolutely loved it. Sylvia’s communication was fantastic from start to finish even after we picked him up. We received photos and video updates daily of him on walks in the woods and swimming in the river etc. Sylvia was great at settling him with the other dogs and such a lovely lady, he was really well looked after we will definitely be booking for next time! Thank you so much from the little diva benji .
We couldn’t have had a better experience. Sylvia has become part of the family, is so kind and flexible and so wonderful with dogs. Our Laika just adores her and pulls at the lead to get to her door. It’s so so lovely knowing that your dog is not only cared for but having the best time.
My puppy absolutely loved day care at Muddy Boots, even though he was the smallest pup by far! He loved the group walks and his recall and drive to say hello to every dog he meets improved massively during his time there!
Sylvia is amazing I am very happy and so is my dog. I received daily updates also videos with my dog enjoying himself while I was away on holiday which was very reassuring. Very professional also a great environment for your dog to be in , totally recommend.
Sylvia’s love and care for all dogs is unmatched. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful and caring person who has supported us hugely over the past few years. Sylvia has been taking care of our VERY sassy sausage dog, Kiwi, for 3 years at daycare and on occasions boarding and overnight stays. From the first time we dropped off Kiwi as a puppy, we knew she would be in great hands, being provided with updates throughout the day and a video of the adventures that take place in the day. Kiwi absolutely adores Sylvia and so do we! We know that when we leave Kiwi with Sylvia she will have plenty of exercise and special time for cuddles throughout the day. Kiwi has even learned some new tricks along the way! Whether it’s daycare or an overnight stay, Sylvia has been incredibly accommodating over the years. We would recommend Sylvia at Muddy boots for anyone looking for a safe and happy place for their dog!
Our rescue dog Rufus has been going to Sylvias for walks and the occasional daytime/overnight stay for around 6 months now and he is still beyond excited to see her every week. Not only is Sylvia reliable and professional but she really cares about the dogs she looks after and we always get to have a lovely chat as well. If you are looking for an amazing dog walker/sitter I would 100% recommend :).
Harley was a very young quite nervous pup when she started with Sylvia so we were a little apprehensive, however, Sylvia couldn't have taken better care of her. Harley was beyond excited every time we'd drop her off and Sylvia was always flexible and communicative if we had last minute requests or changes in schedule. Would highly recommend.
A five star experience with the lovely Sylvia at Muddy Boots! Our cocker spaniel Dash had the best time (it was like Disney World for him!) and we had peace of mind knowing that he was being very well taken care of at Muddy Boots. Thank you again Sylvia for taking such good care of Dash - he loved it!!
