Dog Sitters in Pagham

Fantastic service, friendly and professional people, Our Cocker Spaniel, Buddy, loves his visits and is always happy to stay. We feel very fortunate to have found Sarah and her team. Brilliant service and we have no hesitation to drop Buddy off.

Our pup had a wonderful stay with sarah from start to finish. After never using a dog sitter/boarder before we were hesitant to leave our boy for 9 nights but we had absolutely nothing to worry about. Sarah sent us regular updates throughout his stay and upon collecting him we can tell he was very well looked after! Would 100% recommend paws and relax, our boy is now exhausted from a week of walkies, playing and cuddles!

Thank you Emily for my five star review. I appreciate it. Many thanks Jackie

Monty had a wonderful stay with Simon and it was a very last minute booking as well so we really appreciated how accommodating he was. The location is doggy heaven, there are huge, secured gardens for them to run around in and a nice, large family home environment to stay in. All surrounded by lovely West Sussex countryside. Simon is very friendly and clearly very enthusiastic about giving your dog the best experience possible. Would definitely recommend and will be using again!

We're really grateful to Simon for rescuing us when we needed somewhere for Josh to stay over Christmas. Josh is 10 years old and had never been to pet boarding before but he had a great time and was very happy to see Simon each evening when we took him back. First rate service; thoroughly recommend.

My two Golden Retrievers have stayed with Simon for day care a few times and always enjoyed playing with the other dogs and running around the amazing garden. Last night they very successfully completed their first overnight stay which I am so happy about, in particular as it's the first time one of them has settled without me! I will now be planning my holidays, thank you!

There is nowhere else we would rather leave our puppy for complete peace of mind whilst we go away. Simon is a very lovely man and it’s clear from the moment you meet him that he is a true Dog Whisperer. We recently felt incredibly guilty leaving our very clingy and fussy pup for our first holiday without her, but she was so pleased to see Simon when we arrived to drop her off, that the guilt and anxiety quickly fades away. You genuinely do feel like you’re leaving your dog at the Kids Club and they’re having a holiday too! Oliver & Emily

Fantastic experience for our dog while we were away for a couple weeks! She loved the massive garden, daily walks, and Simon. In fact, she tried running back inside at pick up! The true test, is that our dog behaved completely normal upon arriving home. With other dog sitters, she's been lethargic, clingy, and obsessive in the weeks after her stay. With Simon, she was her happy self the entire time!

It was the first time we left our puppy to go away and we wanted to find a home type environment for him. From the initial communication with Simon to the time we were away they were outstanding, they are caring and professional and provide an excellent service in the most beautiful environment. They provide updates and our puppy came away happy and content, I would have no doubts in recommending them and look forward to using them again in the future.

We came to Chichester for a holiday and booked our 8 month old puppy in with Simon for a few days so we could have a few days out which weren't suitable for a puppy. From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in safe hands. We were sent photos and videos of Lola playing with the other dogs. They have a lovely big garden which is very secure and we know Lola had such a fun time there- she was so tired when we picked her up and slept from the moment we got back to our lodge right through the night. When we come back to Chichester, we will definitely be in touch to book Lola in again.

From the moment we arrived at Simon's house we felt at ease and knew it was the perfect place for our puppy Pepper. It was obvious as soon as we met Simon that he loves dogs and looking after them is a true passion. We were nervous to leave Pepper for the first time, but Simon reassured us and sent a video a little while after drop off showing her sniffing around the large garden. Leaving our puppy is always hard, but knowing how much Simon cares for her makes it easier. We will definitely be bringing her back for future visits. I cannot recommend Simon highly enough, and am so happy to have found somewhere for Pepper that feels safe and happy!

Came highly recommended and was not disappointed! After being let down by a family member, we needed to get our cocker spaniel looked after for 10 days whilst on holiday. A friend of mine gave me Simon’s number and with short notice he booked us straight in for a tester night. With video updates, Chase was having a brilliant time. Whilst on holiday, Simon stayed in touch letting us know how chase was getting on. Can’t thank him enough and will definitely be using him next time.

Travelled down from Hull to Chichester to attend the Goodwood Festival of Speed! Simon was very accommodating and friendly. Allowed us to visit the day before for a meet and greet, as well as allowing an early drop off. Ted and Barney were free to run around the lovely garden at their leisure. Received an update during the day, with both dogs looking super happy! Would certainly recommend and use again! Thanks again Chichester Dog Sitters!!

Please use Tracey. She is amazing and my dog is so happy there, very well loved and cared for. She will accept your dogs needs with food and some dietary needs. You can walk away knowing your dog is loved and well cared for. She plays with them all the time but also loves cuddles on the sofa. I completely trust her with my little man.

Tracey does a wonderful job. My labrador Betsy is well cared for and entertained. Betsy is always happy to gp in and loves playing with Bonzo ! Excellent value for money, and good service .

Tracey has looked after our westie for both day care and over night stays and we trust her with the wellbeing and care of our beloved dog. We have given her five stars which speaks for itself.

I highly recommend Tracey, i have finally found someone where I know my mini dachshund is well cared for and happy to be left. Thankyou Tracey 😍 …

We found Pawsome Pets last minute as a family member was in hospital. I can only say Brad was amazing with Grace, she really took to him and was totally comfortable, we are so grateful Brad had space for her, we will now be using Brad as our preferred sitter, and will not go elsewhere. Brad sends updates and pictures which was lovely and again very reassuring. Thank you Brad for helping last minute and see you again soon. Sara.

Brad looks after my dog every week for day care and some overnight stays. He’s great and so accommodating to everything I ask for. Even last minute requests. Communication is good Brad lets me know how Barney is doing throughout the day. Very reliable and friendly! Barney loves his second home 😄 …

Brad is absolutely brilliant. I have always been very weary about previous dog walkers or carer's but never with Brad. He has been 100% reliable and supported all my last min requests as well as caring massively for my injured dog while we went on holiday. Cannot rate him enough here, always have 2 very happy dogs when they come back. Thank you

We couldn’t be more grateful for Brad's amazing care for our pup, Leo, while we were on holiday for four continuous weeks. From the first day, Brad went above and beyond to ensure Leo was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind, knowing Leo was in the best hands. Brad made sure Leo got his daily walks and even went the extra mile by booking paddocks for him to run and play safely. He was kind enough to create a pool party for Leo in his garden to play during the peak summer. Leo had an opportunity to play on the beach for the first time with Brad. He was incredibly attentive, ensuring Leo’s worming and flea treatment was administered properly and on time. It’s clear Brad is passionate about what he does, and it shows in how well he looks after pets. We returned to a healthy and happy pup, and we can’t recommend Brad highly enough to anyone looking for top-notch pet care. Thank you, Brad :)

We were worried about leaving our cane corso whilst we went away as we had not done it previously but what a fantastic time he had. We were given regular updates, he had plenty of walks and fun. Would highly recommend Pawesome Pets in Bognor and 1000% using them again in future.

I had Bradley look after my dog while I had to go away for a work trip. I had constant updates on how he was and also multiple photos of my dog! I highly recommend Pawsome pets!

Great service, looked after our dog (she can be a handful) with no complaints.... Will definitely be using them again! Cheers Brad

Helped us out at short notice with some doggy walks. Thank you

Top quality service, polite and professional. Will definitely recommend and use again.

Top class service

We were so lucky to find Sue and her services for our wedding day, it allowed us to have our fur baby involved in our wedding day whilst relaxing knowing he was in safe hands after the ceremony. Sue took Cody for a long walk in the morning which meant he was very chilled for his big role as our ring bearer at our wedding, Sue then helped us with photos and took him back to house sit until the wedding party returned. Cody loved Sue and took to her instantly- we just wish we’d lived close by to use her more regularly. We would strongly recommend Pets Pals Chichester as our dog wedding chaperone :)

We are so happy to have found Sue and John. They were amazing looking after our two dogs and our cat during our holidays. It is not easy to go away for a week and leave our beloved animals and the house in the hands of somebody else but we trusted Sue right from the beginning. Sue was giving us regular updates so we could enjoy our time away without needing to worry. We can not recommend Petpals Chichester highly enough and will definitely use their services again!

Oh Sue, we are so glad that we have found you! We had begun to think we couldn’t travel much anymore because of our 3 elderly cats, one of whom is blind and one deaf. They weren’t coping well with going in to a Cattery so someone visiting seemed like the only option. So, we decided to give Petpals Chichester a go. Sue, has been like a breath of fresh air, looking after our 3 precious boys so well & sending us reports and pictures after every visit. To know they are in such safe hands has really taken the stress out of travelling away; so much so that we have booked 3 trips later in the year and will be using Petpals for all of them. It really is so much kinder to leave cats in their own environment, so thank you so much Petpals!

We have been using Sue and Jon at Petpals Chichester for a month now and they are utterly fantastic. I was so anxious about getting a petsitter initially but I couldn't have left her in better hands. They are thorough, careful and considerate. My golden adores them and the visit reports I get after every visit are a highlight of my working day. They are so diligent and professional, before starting they took the time to meet my golden and go over everything in terms of her needs and personality with us. We have only used the petsitting and taxi services but I wouldn't think twice about using any of their other services should I need to.

Sue is an amazing dog walker who goes above and beyond for both our pet and us! We feel very lucky to have found Sue having moved to the area last year, the pressure was on to find someone who was reliable, caring and trustworthy - Sue is all of these and more. From the moment we met Sue, we could see her love for animals, caring nature, and professionalism. Our dog absolutely loves her and has a great time (he makes this very clear by his reaction to her arrival at our home with his wagging tail and bouncy welcome). Sue also updates us after every walk, with a photo and comment. Sue is very easy to contact and always quick to respond, she is very flexible to fit in with our busy lives and the online booking system makes it super easy to make or amend bookings. I would highly recommend Sue to anyone in the area who requires any of PetPals services. Thank you Sue!

We are so pleased we found Petpals when we needed them. Right from the beginning Sue had been fantastic coming round to meet our dog, really getting to know him and taking the time to make sure she understood all our requirements. Our dog absolutely loves it when Sue comes to visit and she always takes the time to message a report after each of her visit which are personalised and lovely. Sue really cares about the animals and it is so reassuring to know our pets are in such good hands. We would highly recommend Per Pals 10 times over. Thank you!

We had such a positive experience with Pet Pals from the start! Sue was very quick to respond to our request, we arranged for her to meet the cats before the planned overnight stay, and Sue was so kind, gentle and friendly with them as well as being very professional and thorough with all the info I gave! Whist we were away I received updates and photos which was such a lovely touch and very much appreciated. Our cats Eric and Lucy were calm and happy in the photos and when we got home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Sue was looking after them so well while we were away. We will definitely be using Pet Pals Chichester again and highly recommend others do too!

Sue has been brilliant with our dogs (who are not always easy) She has stayed over and done visits and walks a number of times now and been wonderful. The dogs love her and we feel really relaxed knowing she is there. She always sends up dates and photos too which we love!

We are so glad that we found Petpals in Chichester. Sue looked after our two parrots (who can both be feisty, and a challenge), and our ten tortoises whilst we were away. We have already booked Petpals to come and do some dog sitting whilst we go to a concert. We highly recommend Petpals in Chichester. Thank you Sue.

What a delight to meet Sue and find someone locally to care for our 9 week old pups last weekend. Everything was spot on, from our first contact, thorough information shared, we were confident enough to know that Sue would care for the pups for a few hours tending to their individual needs and ongoing training in line with our own philosophy. A comprehensive update report while we were away from home with photos. Cannot recommend PetPals with Sue any more than Excellent service, Communication, professionalism and friendly, competent attitude on all levels. Well done Sue you have a super business model.

Our 2 dogs have stayed at Fairlands several times and have just come back from a longer stay, every time they come home happy and relaxed which is so lovely. Jackie and Janet are absolutely brilliant and care for our girls as though they are their own, I would recommend Fairlands for boarding or for daycare as the dogs have the best time!

I have taken my dogs to Fairlands on a few occasions now and I always know that I'm leaving them in good hands. This is the first time I have had to leave my boy there on his own and was a bit worried, but I needn't have as he came out very happy wagging his tail. Thankyou to Jacqui and Janet for looking after him so well.

Very nice people who run this place very accomadating as let us pick up our dog on the sunday when they are actually closed. Our dog is cared for very well at fairlands would recommend these kennels.

Our Labrador Buddy has just had his second stay here. It is great to watch him go off so happy with Jackie and Janet when we drop him off. Picking him up today, he was healthy, happy and although pleased to see us, he had clearly had a great time again! With this being a smaller kennels, the dogs get lots of attention! Back again in October - thanks both for your care and love when Buddy is with you!

I boarded my two dogs with the ladies at fairlands. I spent most of my week on holiday worrying about whether they were ok. I need not of worried, these ladies offered a 5 star half board holiday home for my pooches!! On collection, the dogs looked well cared for, fit and happy. I now know that when I go away for next time, betty and anita will be safe and sound while I will have a good rest! Thank you again Kim

Jackie and Janet looked after our two babies this weekend. I felt that my girls were safe and very well looked after. Janet and Jackie were lovely and highly recommend. Never left our girls before but they t reassured us and we felt were leaving them in safe loving hands

This is the first time my chihuahua has been away from home (She’s nearly 6) she does have a few issues and can be very nervous ,but she came away a happy little dog ,I will no longer be worried about her having to stay in kennels and the ladies ,Jackie and Jean that looker after are wonderful,a great find 😀 …

Thank you so much for taking good care of Billy the Greyhound while we were on holiday in the area. Billy is a very anxious dog and we could tell from the moment you met him that you understood his needs. The kennel is lovely and peaceful, which is perfect for him. You also messaged to let us know he had settled in ok, which reassured us. We will definitely book Billy in again if we are in the area.

The best kennels around, our cocker spaniel has been going for the last 2.5 years and doggie day care the last year and ongoing. Gets out of the car wagging his tail, gets back in wagging his tail and falls asleep. Jackie and Janet provide a wonderful caring service. Highly recommend but keep a space for Sam 😀👍 Well deserved 5 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Highly recommend Fairlands, Janet and Jackie were lovely, our dog Buddy seemed to enjoy his stay, and happily went with Janet and looked like he wanted to stay there when we picked him up. They had a big secure field to run around in, which made us feel at ease, knowing he was safe and happy. Thank you so much .

Kate absolutely loves dogs and they absolutely love her! She is very knowledgeable about dog care and behaviour. She is very kind and caring to all the dogs she looks after and she treats them like members of her family. If dogs could choose, they would choose Kate!

There are few people I trust with my dogs more than Kate. She absolutely adores all dogs and they adore her. I know my girls will be really well looked after, get to socialise safely with other dogs and they come home tired and happy. Absolutely first class.

Kate, Nicky and Lara are fantastic! Our dogs Ted and Percy adore them and I am confident they look after them just as I do. When Kate dog sits she spoils them with lots of cuddles and I'm sure they are disappointed when we come home. Thank you so much ladies.

Kate and Nicky are fantastic, you can tell they love their job and the dogs that they walk and care for! Our 2 boys adore them and we know they are in the best care possible when out on their adventures. Thank you Kate and Nicky for all you do for us and our boys.

I am so pleased we found Pawsitivity for our dogs. They are treated so well, loved and cared for like part of the the family. Irma always has so much good advice and knowledge and has made my girls feel settled from the moment she met them. They have some great walks while there and always come back chilled and happy! Would highly recommend!

Highly recommend Pawsitivity Dog Daycare, Boarding & Walking 🐾 Lando loves his weekly walks, his days at day care and his stays at boarding, Irma and Marco are so lovely and look after him so well, they keep us updated throughout the day and send us pics of him on walks. Lando has definitely grown in confidence spending time with lots of other dogs, thank you Irma & Marco!

Marco and Irma take exceptional care of our cockapoo. I was nervous leaving her but Irma sent me pictures of her playing. She comes back exhausted and gets very excited when she knows she is going there.

My dog has recently stayed for 2 weeks with Pawsitivity and he has come home such a happy and healthy boy. Home from home and lots of lovely walks and the photos gave us peace of mind. Irma and Marco are knowledgeable and have lots of love to give. Highly recommended.

Noisette loves going and staying with Irma and Marco, she does go with Marco on a long walk once a week. I would highly recommend them

We’ve sent our dog to Irma for a few months now for both daycare and boarding. With pictures and updates we get to see the fun he’s having. They take great care of him and we know he’s happy there for his home away from home. With walks on the beach and in the woods, he’s well exercised. Would highly recommend Pawsitivity Dog Daycare if you want your dog to feel loved even when they’re away from you.

I've not been using Pawsitivity for long but my Spaniel always looks so happy in the pupates Irma sends me and posts on social media. They are really flexible and often helped me out at short notice. I feel confident when Rocco is with them as I know he's always well looked after. Would highly recommend Pawsitivity to anyone who wants their 4 legged friend looked after.

When we went on holiday to France this May, Irma walked our two dogs every day. We were kept up to date with lovely messages and photos. It really made us feel content that they were being looked after so well. We will definitely be using this service again as the pups loved her so much.

Pawsitivity had our little boy for just over a week. We were very happy with the service - Irma and Marco were responsive, attentive and caring. There were regular walks and plenty of play time with other dogs. We also received photos every other day or so, which is a definite plus. We would 100% go to Pawsitivity again! 🐶 …

Irma took over from our puppy trainer/walker when she moved, and we were worried Alfie wouldn't settle, but we were wrong he absolutely adors Irma, and when he comes back is bouncing around so happy and full of himself. He is interacting with other dogs far more .It's really more of a social play date that we wanted for him . He really looks forward to seeing her . We couldn't be happier.

We have not used a pet sitter before so was a little apprehensive, but we need not have worried as Dawn was wonderful! She was friendly, kept us up to date throughout our two week holiday and loved our dog as if she were her own and the house was just as we had left it. Thank you so much Dawn, will be in touch for our next holiday!

Dawn is a fantastic pet sitter. Our dog is very anxious but Dawn took the time to build a bond with her and we felt very comfortable leaving her whilst we were away. Dawns regular pupdates put our mind at rest that our little fur baby was in the best hands. 100% recommend!

Dawn took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. She sent us regular updates and made sure before hand that our dog would get all the specialty care she needed and left our house very clean. Thank you!

My lovely but difficult dog was very happy when the lovely Dawn came to stay and look after her for a week at short notice. Dawn has a lot of knowledge of canine behaviour, and gave us some helpful tips on our return which we've since put into practice. I would happily ask Dawn to pet sit for us again without hesitation.

Dawn was tuned in to the dogs and looked comfortable and in control. They were relaxed on my return, the house was clean and tidy, and the dogs had been well looked after. If I need a dog sitter in the future I would certainly hope that Dawn has availability. Thank you.

I would highly recommend Dawn. She arrived on time ready to look after our two dogs all day. She was great with our dogs and followed their daily routine as requested. I also really appreciated the little updates and photos of the dogs throughout the day, it really put my mind at ease. They seemed happy and content, and I would definitely book again in the future. Thank you, Dawn.

Good service. Dawn is very thorough and responsible with her job. I did not worry at all about my pets while I was away. She gives the updates you request and the dogs also liked her.

This is an update to my earlier review in December 2023. As planned Dawn came to look after our large house and our young lively fox red Labrador for 6 weeks from the end of January to mid-March. She did a fabulous job. She was very attentive to Freddie's needs and knows her stuff when it comes to dog psychology! The house was looked after extremely well and it was left in excellent condition. She kept us regularly informed about developments and sent us lots of photos of Freddie while we were away. She was very responsive when we needed to contact her about things to do with the house. We felt very confident that she was able to take everything in her stride and that Freddie was being very well looked after. We came home to a very happy dog and everything all in order at home. What more could we ask for? We will certainly be happy to use Dawn again when we go away and have no reservations in recommending her to others. Thanks Dawn.

I trust Dawn with my pets as she has looked after them so many times before, my chihuahua absolutely adores her and never wanted to leave her side!

Dawn looked after my cat while I was on holiday and sent lots of photographs of her having cuddles and playing with him and it was so reassuring. I can highly recommend this service.

Sara and Mike are brilliant! They have walked and boarded my pup since he was ten weeks old and he loves them to bits - they look after him like he is theirs and I have every confidence that he is safe and happy when he is with them. He is super excited to see them each and every time! I receive regular updates whether its from walks or boarding and both Mike and Sara are professional, reliable and friendly. I highly recommend their services.

Mike & Sara are a great team, and quite clearly very knowledgable about puppies and dogs! They are easy going and supportive, with a lab puppy things can be hard work sometimes but Sara has lots of tips and tricks to make things easier 😊 Abel loves them both and enjoys his walks & playtime with Mike! I’ll always recommend these two, they make owning a pup that much easier 🐶 Thanks for all you do guys! X

Mike and Sara are an amazing team. We couldn’t be happier with their services. We use grooming, boarding / walking and training and highly recommend all. Very knowledgeable, caring and reliable. They offer a home from home experience making our pup and us feel at ease and very happy. The training we’ve done has totally transformed our life and our dogs for the better at a time when we were very close to giving up. We can’t thank you enough!

We looked around before deciding Mike and Sara were the right people to look after our 10 month old pups and truly we are so pleased we have made the correct decision. Mike and Sara have had them for the weekend and they have come back home so happy and content, I look forward to our dogs next visit knowing they will be well looked after and cared for in December and then for 2 further weeks in January. Thank you both, Gary & Angela.

Mike & Sara walk our dog daily and their service has been outstanding from the very beginning. They are friendly, very reliable and obviously care about their customers & their pets.

Great care and company for doggy friends.

All good

Caring, professional and outstanding.

Very helpful.
