A lovely sit in a beautifully restored, wonderfully decorated and furnished B&B business in a fantastic forest valley setting. From the great communication at the outset through to the end of the sit George and Linda were amazing hosts. Of course that is their business :-). We had a delicious meal with them the evening before they left for the airport and the stories they have to tell, we could have been there all night chatting - definitely a book to be written and we hope to hear more on our next visit! Not wishing to upstage the beautiful home and wonderful company but Willow, their white/tan cockerpoo was the star of the show. I defy anyone to not have their heart melted after looking after her! She is a pure delight. Very obedient, walks great off lead, never strays too far from your side and gives the best of cuddles ever. It was a pleasure to take her out for the day when the weather was good enough for us to visit some local beaches and places of interest. Apart from the neighbours lake and fields right on the doorstep to walk round for daily exercise and to visit the ponies you are able to take a short stroll up the lane and into the Brechfa forest. We were also directed to a museum gardens with a lovely coffee shop 15 minutes drive away that is amazing for walking the dogs around and of course finishing up with the obligatory coffee and cake (amazing cakes)! This was a short sit so we can't wait to come back again in April to see everyone, hear some more of George and Linda's adventures and explore more of the area with the most wonderful Willow. Thanks guys - see you in April.

We left our pup here for a long weekend and had a great experience. The facilities are very well kept and the owners are super friendly. We received pics to let us know she was doing well. This is our new go-to for boarding!

We hit the jackpot when we found April at VIP Dog Walking. Our dogs just love her and so do we! She is prompt, reliable and trustworthy. She sends us a picture and an update about our boys after EVERY visit. She has taken the stress off of us by not feeling like we have to rush right home from work every night to let them out. I recommend VIP and April to anyone. She is amazing and we are so thankful to have found her!
I’ve been using the vip dog walking service since July 2019 for daily dog walking and unexpected work trips requiring night care and feeding. My dogs are chubby and need more than the 45 minutes that I personally walk them April is on time, caring, respectful of my home, gives affection to my dogs. My boy Weimaraner just loves her and the girl who is 11 adores her. She takes care of my two large dogs like there her own She will text you on how they were on walk, give them water, bring in packages, and anything she thought was different from the last time she saw them One of my dogs just had surgery for acl repair. She’s coming twice daily in assisting her care and future rehab What a blessing for me and she can be for your family and pets
April was amazing with my pets. I requested her services for a week but then had an emergency come up and she completely understood and continued to care for them for 4 extra days. The prices were very fair and I will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend.
Thank you for taking such good care of my kitty why we were out of town. It it's such a relief to have people you can trust to pet sit and they fact that you can run the pets to the vet for me is truly a blessing.
April and her team are amazing! Very caring and loving sitters!
