Lydia is a lovely person. The communication was excellent and we got a good introduction which answered all our questions. Everything was prepared so that we had an uncomplicated stay. We felt right at home. Poppy and Baxter are two dogs you have to love. They are both adorable and we have taken them very much to our hearts. Thank you for the wonderful time
What a great housesit this was. Sue and Nick were very welcoming, kind and relaxed homeowners to sit for. Ollie and Arya are gorgeous, chilled cats and it was a pleasure to look after them. The house is lovely and the garden quite stunning. There was so much to see in the surrounding area that we will need more than one visit for sure. We recommend this sit very highly and we would go back in a heartbeat.
Mika es una perrita super cariñosa, le encanta sentarse en el sofa junto a ti y descansar. Sus dueños son increíbles, nos recibieron muy bien. La casa es hermosa y super amplia. Nos sentimos muy cómodos. Muchas gracias pir el cariño y la confianza!
I had a great time at Sonja’s! She was very easygoing and generous. She ensured I was comfortable and was easy to communicate with throughout my stay. She taught me how to care for chickens since it was my first time and it couldn’t have been easier. Their eggs were delicious! The dogs Cooper and Gidget were easy to care for as well. Best of all, they were huge cuddlers and enjoyed doing anything and everything with me. The neighborhood is quiet with some great parks and convenient stores nearby. The home has great amenities like a hot tub, bar, and grill — all of which she welcomed me to. This sit would be great for anyone!
I had such an amazing time with spud and betty 💖 lovely house in a very nice and quite area, i had an amazing time staying in Edinburgh and would highly recommend to anyone!
We had a wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable time staying at Ralph and Anthea's lovely home, but the icing on the cake was certainly Spud, who was simply the easiest, friendliest, most laid back companion that we could have wished for. She was absolutely no trouble at all, either at home or out and about on walks and was our faithful, loyal partner throughout our stay. It is easy to see why all previous sitters have enjoyed staying here - it is a lovely peaceful location in the centre of the village, with two pubs and a community shop within touching distance, and endless countryside on the doorstep. We would thoroughly recommend this sit. Thank you Ralph and Anthea for inviting us into your home - and for the loan of Spud.

Our cockapoo has been going to Jimackie every week when we are at work since she was a puppy. She loves her time there and Jackie and Jim love her as if she was their own dog. It is great peace of mind to know that she is being so well cared for when we are at work or on holiday. As first-time dog owners Jackie has been so helpful in assisting us with training. We would be lost without them and can't thank them enough for everything they do for us.
Bella has been visiting Jimackie for about a year now to get ready for her holiday in October. She loves it and has great fun playing with the other dogs and getting out and about to lots of different places. All the dogs have the run of the house and get treated like part of the family. I feel very comfortable leaving Bella knowing she is well taken care of, given lots of cuddles and attention by Jackie and Jim. The daily videos and updates make going on holiday easier know she is having a great time too.
Rolo, our cocker spaniel has stayed several times at Jimackie Pet Services whilst we have been on holiday. He absolutely loves staying with Jim and Jackie and you can keep in touch by reviewing their daily walks on Face Book. All the dogs using this service are thoroughly ruined and well looked after.Both Jim and Jackie are dedicated to the dogs. If you're looking for a temporary home for your pets while you are on holiday for a day, a week or even longer, then look no further this is the place for you. Prices are very reasonable.
Oscar ,my 2 year old show cocker ,spent just over a week having a great time staying at Jimackie Pet Services this summer. It was great to find somewhere that was able to feed him his raw diet without a problem. It was also great to see him on the videos they posted throughout his stay,all the great walks he was having.. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and when we go on holiday again ,Oscar would love to spend his holidays with Jim and Jackie
5 star - My Westie puppy Jamie went to stay for a week, first time away from home. He absolutely loved staying with Jim and Jackie. Lots of love and long walks. I know I can safely leave him when we next go on holiday and that he will be well looked after at Jimackie Pet Services. Thank you Jackie and Jim. Xx
Luna has been going to Jackie & Jim for the last two years and we feel very lucky to have found such wonderful people to care for her while we're away. Both Jackie & Jim treat all dogs in their care as if they were their own. It's a real home from home and we know Luna is loved and looked after. Would recommend 100%
Forrest loves it! If your dog likes beach walks, forest walks or quarry walks this is the place for them! Tonks, Maverick, Teddy, Tia, Santa Paws, Bella, Penny and so many other dogs love it there and have taught Forrest valuable lessons. It looks a bit harsh sometimes but hey Forrest can be a bit of a pain but Tia sorts him out and tells him that's not what you do. The dogs have such a good time. Jackie and Jim are kind, fun but firm with the dogs which is great for breaking bad habits in your dog. They also do overnight care so you can rest easy if you are stuck in traffic or go on holiday. Forrest loves it! 💖 💖 💖
Absolutely brilliant, can't praise jackie and Jim enough for their love care and attention they provide for my boy. It's definitely home from home for Riedel and he has come on leaps and bounds since going to day care, he is now not as nervous around other dogs which we never thought would happen. I love being able to watch daily videos seeing them all having so much fun on their walks. Highly recommended and wish I had known about jimackie pet services earlier.
My woof's (Cali&Poppy) are not allowed to stay anywhere else except with Jackie and Jim, they are both spoiled at home and recieve the same when they go for their holidays to jimackie! I enjoy my holidays so much more knowing the girls are having just as much of a good time. They are always happy to be left and I love being able to watch the videos of their walks and having fun. Nothing is ever too much hassle, will always recommend. The girls are definitely looking forward to their summer holiday x🐶🐶
My English Springer Spaniel goes to Jim and Jackie every week and loves it.He also goes every summer When we go on holiday for 17days.Oakley loves going to stay with Jim and Jackie and we go on holiday with no worries knowing that we can see him every day and that he is getting 5star treatment . We would recommend jimackie pet services to anyone looking for a great place to send your dog.
Brilliant breeders! We had spoke with and met a few breeders but when we visited Alan we knew instantly that they were the breeder for us. They have a fantastic set up and clearly care that their pups go to good homes. We were able to visit on a regular basis. Both mum and dad were there, Duke and Wiggle, both lovely labs. We took our pup, Miso, home when she was 8 weeks and she has been doing great. Full marks from the vet, a great temperament and will do anything for some food. If I was (mad enough) to get another lab anytime soon it would be from Alan. Update a few months later: Our pup is doing great. She is so well natured, a dream to train, loves a cuddle as much as she does a rough game of tug.
Our puppy goes to daycare at Murie and recently stayed in the kennels for a weekend. He absolutely loves his time at Murie Kennels, and we are confident with leaving him in their capable hands. We also enjoy the daily photo updates from the pack walks. Thanks Alan, Neil and the rest of the team!
Delighted with our wee Cockapoo groom today. Lovely people to deal with at the kennel we will be back. Please don't be tempted to follow Google maps! Go via Errol and down the track to the Kennels .don't come off the A90 like we did !
Had my dog groomed, terrible mistake, my dog did not get a haircut as asked, she was shaved completely. All her legs trimmings have been shaved away l, despite asking them scissor cut the legs and only clipper the back coat, neck and bottom. I am devastated to get my dog back looking like this. Would avoid this groomers like the plague
We got our first Labrador puppy from Alan at Murie kennels - I couldn’t recommend him enough, he has a genuine love for dogs and their all round well being which is very apparent when talking to him, he was so helpful with information and we knew when we first met Alan that he was the right breeder for us and we would get a healthy bred puppy , the puppy enclosure was immaculate and our pup is so well natured and friendly just like Alan’s own Labradors. We are so happy with our puppy and have full confidence in Alan and Murie Kennels if we ever needed to use the kennel services in future! :-)
My partner and I got a puppy from Murie Kennels back in October and I can honestly say it was the best choice we made. Not only is the team fantastic but our boy has got an amazing gentle temper. Alan was incredibly helpful and made our Labrador dreams come true. Would recommend in a heartbeat!
We would highly recommend Murie Kennels, Alan and the team are fantastic with the dogs. We had our 2 go in for the very first time, one is hyper and the other a nervous dog. Alan allowed them to visit a few times before the stay which helped reassure the dogs, his experience and advice is invaluable. Fantastic team, we will definitely use again.
We first started using Murie Kennels and Dog Walking last summer for their Daycare/Dog Walking service for our Siberian Husky puppy. He loves going when we are at work and on the days I am at home, he waits by the window at the usual pick up time incase the Daycare van appears for him! We then started using the kennels for him to stay whilst we had some mini breaks/holidays. First class care all round and Tikaani shows zero signs of stress or displeasure when he goes in. Lastly, we also use Alan to help with training. We have a young pup with boundless energy and we had worked with other trainers and some behaviours had, in fact, gotten worse. Have now been going to Alan regularly over last few weeks and the behaviours are improving, and I am enjoying walking him again. I am looking forward to continuing the training and Tikaani is enjoying the training sessions immensely. Alan has adapted his approach at times with Tikaani, whereas other trainers were sure every dog needed the same approach, and Tikaani has responded very well. I would thoroughly recommend Alan, Neil and the team for all your dog care/training needs and fully trust them to look after my boy!
I booked my two labs into Murie kennels for 3 nights last weekend and was very happy. Clean, modern spacious kennels in a beautiful location. Alan and other team member I met were lovely, obviously knowledgeable and caring. My dogs were well cared for and came out happy and well walked. The daily photos were a welcome bonus and it was great to see them enjoying their walks. Would definitely recommend and re-book in the future 😊
Our dogs seem super happy here. They recently had their second visit and it was so nice to see them happily go back into the kennel as if it were their home from home. Alan was also super helpful when we had to change arrangements on pick up due to delayed flight
We used Longforgan kennels & cattery for the first time back in May (following our move up to Scotland) & we’re thrilled to bits with the level of care Rachel gave our cat & dog. They were both great when we got them home, so know they were well looked after. We are booking them again for three weeks soon & knowing we won’t have any worries while we are away.
We have been coming here for years and our cat receives the highest standards of kindness and care . She has a large , heated pen during her visits with excellent food and biscuits . Rachel who runs the establishment is outstanding and we highly commend her . We receive updates whilst away which give us peace of mind and we would not go anywhere else . Many thanks to the kindest and most professional lady .
Our cat has stayed many times at this cattery and has always been extremely well looked after. Rachel is always professional, caring and eager to make our cat feel at home . We have no hesitation at all in recommending this cattery.
We've only brought our dog Bean for one stay so far, but she was so well taken care of that we already have her booked for 2 more stays in the future! We got updates letting us know she was doing okay while we were gone, and they were so accommodating to our needs. Bean is a bit nervous around other dogs, so we had peace of mind knowing they keep the dogs separated during their stay. Thank you so much!
Lovely and friendly owner. Great service also sent photos would highly recommend.
My 2 cats have been going on their holidays to the cattery for 6 years now. They cannot fault it and love going to stay with their Auntie Rachel. As I go away often I have peace of mind knowing they are safe and well looked after. Wonderful cattery. Would highly recommend.
Just started using this cattery a few months ago. Very pleased to have found it! My elderly cat always appears healthy and happy when I pick him up. The cat pens are in a nice garden where the cats can spend time outside. The indoor sleeping part has a heater for when it gets cold, perfect! Great communication and easy to organise future stays. Will continue to use Longforgan!
Last week was my first time using the Cattery with my 8mth old kitten Teddy who hadn’t stayed in a Cattery before. As he (and I) were a little anxious I received regular updates and photos to reassure me all was well. Would highly recommend, Teddy is all set to go back in May and July 😊🐈⬛ …
My cat and dog have stayed here a few times now - most recently last month (November 2019). Its lovely to know that they're well looked after while I'm on holiday - and there aren't many kennels who would take the trouble to shampoo an unclipped Bearded Collie.. he came home smelling lovely!. Thank you.
Fantastic place to bring our beloved kitty for a feline get away, whilst we enjoyed some well deserved time off. The woman who owns the place was so nice, and it is evident that she really loves cats (and dogs). Roll of honour for her cat who is 20 years old and looks like a lion.
A great place to leave your dog in capable hands for the day,they are well looked after, really nice owners with good staff.
Have nothing but high praise for John and Jane and staff who looked after our doggies Babes and Brodie when were in Scotland on a break. They were only in for one day. Brodie is a typical Border Collie and can be unpredictable at times. My partner was a little concerned as she has never left her doggies in daycare before. She was over the moon that he'd been really well behaved and is welcome back anytime. We will use Happy Mutts again in the future. Thanks everyone!
I cannot recommend Happy Mutts strongly enough. We came to John and Jane for 14 years until our Wee Man passed away. He was always looked after well and was treated as part of the family all the time. He loved going up to them on his holidays. Thanks for all you did for us.
An outstanding couple who really look after dogs fantastically. John and Jane have looked after our dog for 6 years now and we would always go back to them. She is taken in as part of the family, so are we when dropping off and picking up. She always comes back happy, healthy and content. Cannot recommend happy Mutts highly enough, please, if u need your dog cared for while on holiday or day care, contact them.
They looked after my sprocker for 3 days while we were in Scotland, they are a friendly team who clearly love the dogs they care for. My dog had clearly enjoyed himself as he was pleased to go in day 2 and 3 , thank you again, you are highly recommended
Saw photos on Facebook this evening..unfortunately. They then disappeared. .but was so good to see all the dogs looking so happy and enjoying themselves. Penny included. Yes would well recommend Happy Mutts. It is good to know that she is enjoying her time spent with you.
Cannot trust Happy-Mutts to walk the dogs for the hour they charge for. I have proof that some days my dog was only walked for 15 minutes, and yet they charge for an hour. They also do not walk the dogs at the time scheduled. One example is my dog was meant to be walked between 12-1 and they turned up at 10.10 and I hadn't even left the house. I have spoken to other previous customers who all had the same problems, and yet it still continues, despite complaints. I have emailed about this, but it has been ignored.
Called to ask about dog walking and was told they would call back. They did not. Called them the day before I needed a dog walker and was told they couldn’t help. Really left in the lurch. Pretty unprofessional. Would not recommend
Fantastic staff and place. Our dog loves it there
Our dog had a wonderful day! Can’t thank you enough.
Layla at Tails and Trails looked after my little dog Dora. She had her for the day and sent me regular updates and pictures. Dora had a great time walking with the pack, would definitely recommend tails and trails services. Layla is lovely
Layla looked after my 2 spaniels whilst I was on holiday for a week, they had never stayed away before so I was anxious, however I received regular updates & pictures/videos and was able to relax as I could see how happy my girls were, they were in Laylas home and being treated like her own. I cannot recommend highly enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Would highly recommend Tails and Trails Pet services! Our cocker spaniel loves his weekly walks with the pack. Layla is great with him and keeps us updated of all their activities. Thank you 😊 …
Layla looked after our little sausage dog Maisy whilst we were getting married down the road at Inchyra. Layla also brought Maisy to our wedding for a couple of hours so she could be there on our special day. Maisy had the best time with Layla and she could not have been better cared for. Layla sent us lots of photos and video updates so we were absolutely confident she was settled and having a lovely time. I can’t thank Layla enough and we will absolutely be calling on her again to look after Maisy in the future. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to look after their furry friend!
Layla looked after our 2 dogs while we were at a wedding in the area. They went on 2 pack walks and stayed overnight at her lovely home. The dogs clearly had a great time as they've done nothing but sleep since! They were really relaxed when we picked them up. Layla was in regular contact with us and she's clearly very experienced with dogs. Would 100% use again and recommend!
We can't recommend Layla highly enough. From the outset we trusted her completely with our boys, Angus and Oscar. She has such a great manner with the dogs in her care and her wedding service was just perfect. First rate dog mum! Thank you, Layla.
Tails and Trails aka Layla offers a wonderful service, she came to meet Ruby and assess her skills and interactions with other dogs before taking her on 1-1 walks, then when Ruby was behaving well off lead she introduced her to pack walks. Ruby loves her weekly pack walks and is always excited to go and tired afterwards. I highly recommend this service.
Misty adores her trips with Layla and her doggie friends and loves her holidays with Layla. Can wholeheartedly recommend Layla- lovely with our Misty and totally trustworthy.
I adopted my dog in September of last year, not knowing much about his background other than him not being good around other dogs. I was worried how my dog would be, getting taken out with Layla, but I had no reason to worry at all, as he was so well behaved & enjoyed his first ever walk with Layla & a small pack. Layla set my mind at ease with pictures & videos. I would highly recommend Layla 🐶🐾
Layla is just wonderful! If I could give her 10 stars, I would! Our dog loves her so much, he gets SO excited every time I drop him off with Layla. She always sends us pictures and videos of his walkies which just makes my day. She has such a good way with him and all of the dogs she cares for.
Our pup Pablo has been going to Perth Pet Care for full day care (including pick up and drop off) since August/September 2021 to March 2022. He has always loved his time with them, and always arrives home completed knackered and chilled out for a good couple of days. The guys at the day care have always been professional, flexible and friendly as well as understanding of Pablo’s needs. Unfortunately he’ll no longer be going as beyond the age of one he’d need to be neutered to attend. If you’re looking to do that with your dog, I’d highly highly recommend Perth Pet Care for anyone looking for those kind of services.
Very good .my dov rolo loves it. He comes ho.e and sleeps for a good few hours they do a great service .
Our pup loves going! Very friendly staff and great value. Have even been happy to accomodatw at short notice as well.
Holly, my Bichon Frise had her first visit here since moving to the area. Absolutely delighted with the result! Already booked her in for her next visit. I was worried about finding a new groomer for Holly when I moved but but my worries are well and truly laid to rest. Fantastic service and great value.
Staff are amazing and so caring. Perfect place to leave your dog when you're busy or need to go out for the day.
My bulldog loves this place. He's boisterous to say the least but the staff are great with him.
I use the facilities here to wash my border terrier Milly, who likes rolling in stuff, great wash facilities, different scented shampoos, towel, driers and perfume, perfect!
My mums dog lady had her first groom today... wee thought she may need a few visits she was brilliant.. shes to go back for 1 more visit.. jst to tidy up.... emily the groomer didnt want to frighten her .... thankyou emily.. such lovely people.. plus they do a lot for dogs ...
The website states that it has DIY facilities but when you phone to book it's clear that it's only available when the resident groomer isn't using it. So you can't go when it suits you.
Our four legged baby is always incredibly happy and eager to go and play with his four and two legged friends. Bonus: after a session he's knackered and sleeps like a log.
Very happy with Ewan and Annie. Our dogs have stayed with them for a week before and were well cared for and happy. They always let us know well in advance of any holidays they may be taking and are good at getting in touch of either dog is not quite right. I would highly recommend Loch Leven Petcare!
Anne and Ewan checked in on our indoor cat while we were getting married over a weekend and they were brilliant. Kept us up to date every visit with photos of Rùm which put our minds at ease as we’d never left him on his own overnight before. Would definitely ask Anne and Ewan to look after him again. Thank you both.
Annie & Ewan have been walking our two dogs since they started, and they recently had them for a week while we went on our our first foreign holiday in years. Annie & Ewan have built a great relationship with our two, who can be challenging at times being rescues, so we had no qualms about leaving them there. We got daily updates and photos which put our minds at rest, and it is clear that the dogs love both the walks and staying over. Highly recommend them for their friendly, personal, caring approach, they are clearly dog people first and foremost.
Annie and Ewan have looked after our cat in our home a few times. Their service is superb. The updates of how she is getting on together with photos/videos is a great touch and loved by all of us. We will definitely be booking their services the next time we go away.
Our puppy went for a 4 night stay at Loch Leven Petcare and i felt so reaussred as the communication from them was great prior to her stay and whilst she was there, even sending lots of pictures. Absolutely amazing and we will definitely use Loch Leven Petcare again in the future. Highly reccomend. Thank you !
Annie and Ewan reassured us and kept us updated with pictures of Harry, when he stayed while we were on holiday. Even his yucky raw food was not a problem. He is a big dog and his tail can be quite a weapon, I understand he is a lot to take on and I over fuss but he genuinely seemed happy staying there, I was reassured by their experience of dogs.
No hesitation in recommending Loch Leven Petcare. From my initial enquiry they were professional but friendly too. I was looking for a week long holiday home for our young Cavapoo. They offered a couple of 'practice' nights away which put both me and my dog at ease. In fact my dog was obviously excited to be back when I dropped her off! I know they looked after her well, keeping her busy with walks and playtime. The updates and photos while we were away were an added bonus. I will definitely be using Annie and Ewan again.
We were looking for dog boarding for our dog Millie at short notice and over the Christmas period. Ewan and Anne were recommended to us on a Facebook community group and when we got in touch we found they were very helpful and friendly. They cared for Millie like she was their own and sent us plenty of updates and photos during her stay. We now use Loch Leven Petcare for regular walks and we couldn't be happier with the service. They even have a tracking tag they use on Millie's collar, so they can show us on a map how far she has ran on her walk! If you love your pet, you'll love these guys!
Had read some great reviews on the local community page and got in touch with Annie and Ewan. They replied very promptly with links to the forms we needed to fill in for Jack and Finn. What was so brilliant though was that they wanted to meet our dogs in their own home to get an idea of what they were like. Both Annie and Ewan spent a lot of time playing and talking to our boys, Ewan even sat on the floor whilst Finn jumped all over him. The boys had a great time and we were both so delighted that they were with a couple who really loved dogs. Already planning their next stay - Highly recommend...
We left Nellie with Annie and Ewan while we went to a wedding. It was our first visit to the area and we were a little concerned about leaving her, especially as she has not been left since the first lockdown. We needn’t have worried. We got updates about how she was settling and pictures. She got walked and cuddled and we are hoping to leave her again on our next visit.
Was recommended these guys and brought my English bulldog here for the first time over the weekend. She was so chipper when picking her up! We could tell she had a great time, the staff here are lovely, check in and out process is so straight forward. I would highly recommend to anyone and will be sure to come back!
I initially came across Gallowmyre after looking for a daycare service for my dog on an occasional to regular basis. I did a bit of research and heard some horror stories about other local facilities in Perth but Gallowmyre came well recommended. I have to admit that I wasn't sure of the idea of putting my dog to a kennels but after my 7 month old pup has now been a few times I can highly recommend the care from Sarah and her team. My pup is a bit nervous and they have accommodated this no problem and shown nothing but kindness. I would not hesitate to put him here for a longer period of time and have now booked in all my holidays for next year.
Can’t fault this kennel or the staff they are amazing. We had booked our Bettie in on the Sunday for a week and unfortunately she had some medical problems (womb prolapse) she ended up in the vet hospital by Tuesday they looked after her made sure she got the help she needed and luckily she is now on the mend. I would not hesitate to send her back very compassionate and professional and how they dealt with her in our absence was superb. Thank you so much for looking after my girl while we weren’t available. X
I feel my beloved dog is well looked after when he’s at Gallowmyre. He’s always happy to go & very clean when he comes home. He’s nearly 10 now & has been staying since he was 6 months old. I always recommend to other dog owners.
Set in a beautiful rural location, we've used the kennels twice now for our Border terrier and the staff are really friendly and seem to have everything well organised. Our dog seems to like it.
Gallowmyre Kennels have been great! We've left Mac with them on a day care basis and also overnight stays, he loves going there as all the staff are very friendly and obviously love dogs. I never worry when he is with them, he's well looked after and all dogs are taken out regularly for walks. Thank you Gallowmyre. Sheila and Alan Mathieson
Have used this kennel for many years now. The dogs are well looked after and get regular exercise. Friendly staff make the dogs welcome. Many thanks.
Great location, knowledgeable staff, dogs very looked after. The photos are great for keeping up-to-date with how your pet is being looked after.
Have used these kennels a few times now and have found them to be very good. Look after our 2 dogs well and would recommend.
Great kennels obviously run by dedicated staff! Was our dogs first time in kennels and he seemed to love them 🙂 …
Barking Mad is an excellent service! I have used Barking Mad for a number of years for my dogs and I've never been disappointed. Our dogs have been very well looked after and when the van pulls up to collect them there is great excitement from them about going on holiday! Elaine and John are genuinely caring towards the dogs and we leave them feeling confident that they will be well looked after and have a great time! Thoroughly recommend.
I have been a Barking Mad Host and service user for almost 20 years. Elaine and John are the third owners I have worked with and not only are they lovely people, they are by far the most enthusiastic, committed owners of the service. Not only do they ensure dogs have a fabulous holiday in appropriate surroundings, they have developed a very caring community for the Hosts. All your lovely dogs are looked after so well in their holiday homes.
After a bad experience with dog care some years ago, I thought I would never go on holiday again – until I found Barking Mad. My pooch has some quirky habits which require particular care and attention – John and Elaine came to the house to meet him, took note of everything down to the smallest detail and found the perfect host who catered for all his needs. I went to visit my family in New Zealand and had heaps of text messages, photos and video showing my dog out on lovely walks, having lots of fun and looking totally relaxed. I have already booked my next holiday and have every confidence that with Barking Mad, my dog will receive the same care, attention and love that he gets at home. I can’t rate this organisation highly enough, they are simply the best.
I cannot recommend barking mad fife enough. When your going on holiday you want your furry friend to be looked after the same way you look after them at home. You want peace of mind and reassurance, this is exactly what Elaine and John provide. No detail is missed out and they cover absolutely everything with you in a 2 hour initial meeting before they board your dog. Our dog has joint issues which can limit some activities, this issue was 100% taken on board while our dog was in Elaine and Johns care. I think it’s important to know any health issues your dog may have will be looked after correctly. You’ll receive updates with photos when you are away- chances are your furry friend is also having a 5 star luxury holiday of their own! The service is second to none and worth every penny. I cannot rate Elaine and John highly enough.
Since we first used John and Elaine at Barking Mad to look after our Gordon Setter "Floyd" for six weeks in 2017 we would not consider placing him anywhere else. He loves going with them and has the time of his life running with the pack in the hills and swimming in the sea. While he's away we get regular pictures and videos sent so we can see how happy he is. We would have no hesitation recommending them even for long stays. Peter and Maureen.
Our last dog Trey, a ‘silver surfer’ was always looked after so well and loved his holibags with Elaine and John. He was a withdrawn guide dog who had bad arthritic legs who just loved people and we worried how he would be staying with others. We needn’t have worried as he loved every second and was always cared for to our exact needs regarding his food and medication. When we lost him our two new girls who are rescue labradors now go on holiday with them too. As I am now disabled it was a huge worry for me that if I had to do anything at short notice, who would look after my dogs? I am so lucky that Elaine and John have always gone the extra mile for me when I have needed care for the girls at very short notice sometimes so that this now is not an issue. If anyone is considering dog care I would say let your dogs go on holiday with John and Elaine. You can have total peace of mind to enjoy whatever you are doing in the knowledge that your fur babies will be having a blast with the best care possible and being treated as part of a family with all their home comforts.
This is a wonderful service, run and owned by 2 devoted dog lovers. Elaine and John are friendly, caring and very professional people, they ensure that you and your dogs safety, comfort any special needs are their main priority. We were extremely happy with every aspect of the service they provided, which allowed my Wife and I to enjoy our break/holiday away, knowing that our 'Kizzi' was safe and happy! Many thanks to you both and we will be using your service anytime we ever wish to go away, when we are unable to take Kizzi.
Excellent service provided by wonderful and devoted staff. Nothing is too much for them as in our case when our pooch has to go to the vets, as she does once a month, it is no hassle whilst we are on holiday. Her dog sitter is excellent as well and we know that the dog is being well cared for. Keep up the good work and I would recommend them to anyone.
Isla y loved her wee holidays with Barking mad. So much that she is jumping up to get into John's car.John and Elaine are fully committed to what they do. It is obvious they both love it. Would definitely recommend Barking Mad. The host's are equally committed to ensuring your wee precious has fun and is cared for.🐩🐩
Once again I would like to thank John and Elaine for their exceptional service and dedication they gave us recently with Flora. Also cannot thank them enough for helping us out at such short notice for my father in laws funeral. Lynne,Alan,Emma and not forgetting Nugget are wonderful hosts. Flora came back bouncy, full of life and started eating without me having to remind her. Whenever Flora sees the bag and the car draws up to fetch her she cannot contain her excitement. Keep up your good work. Elaine and John as we do not know what we would do without your services.x
Sam was very welcoming and professional when he met us with our dog to get to know her - she was at home and settled in straight away. It’s clear how much dogs are loved and looked after in this home, and our dog loved running about with Leo. Would highly recommend and will be in touch again when we are next away. Thanks again to you both 😊
Our dog Leo went to stay for the first time with Sam for two nights. He had an amazing time! He loved playing with the other Leo and he enjoyed lots of cuddles. Sam went above and beyond to make him feel at home because it was his first stay there. We will definitely be using Sam again! There are only a few people you trust with your fur babies and Sam is one of those people! Thanks again!
My brother’s dog Ava stayed at Leo’s boarding for 2 nights. She absolutely loved it. The house was clean and dog friendly. The service was professional, good value for money and most importantly-the owner has a clear love of dogs! Whilst we were away, we received videos and photos of Ava having an amazing time, running around with their dog Leo. We have her booked back in again in October! I would highly recommend them!
More than happy to leave an excellent review for Sam after minding our dog . Sam’s a lovely guy who genuinely loves dogs and will look after yours as if it’s his own . Regular updates and photos of our dog along with Sam’s own dog let us see how well he was doing without us! I would highly recommend Sam and be in no doubt your dog will be cared for exceptionally well . 5 stars from us & will for certain be using Sam’s fantastic service again .
Alfie loves his time at Leo’s Home Dog Boarding, I can leave him there with confidence which is rare with his separation anxiety. The updates are amazing and Sam is very supportive and accommodating around drop offs and pick ups.
Fantastic people, fantastic house for boarding:))))Lots of love for animal and people:))))My dog have very good time:))) Stay 2 weeks with Sam:)))I was very relax:))) I give recommendation🐕❤🙂😉👍🤩🦮🐕🦺🐶😍😘🌻⭐🤗🪙🥇🖐🌞😀 …
Been using Milton Mill Kennels for just over a year now, Janice and team are always very friendly, and I can go away knowing my dog is going to be cared for and well looked after. I was always nervous about leaving my dog in a kennel, but now when we pull up he’s eager to get out of the car for his little holiday.
Our dogs have been staying at Milton mill kennels for a couple of years now and couldn’t be happier with the service. Dogs always delighted when they arrive and I know they are in good hands.
Our dog Jess came out looking just so super cute , more than normal . What a great job done by the girls here . Extremely happy
Dog says she had a great time, didn't miss us at all... so, we'll certainly book her in the next time we travel south
Amazing care and attention to detail. Highly recommended. Five star service.
Wonderful place that has been looking after my dogs for years. I highly rate both for kennelling and also for dog grooming.
Great service and the dog enjoys its visits
Very pleasant telephone conversation, I will definitely use in the future.
Well the dogs loved it. Great service.
Excellent Kennels, highly recommended.
