Alanna did a great job taking care of our dog Zoe! She communicated well, sent lots of pics, and took Zoe on walks. She was punctual and left the house clean and tidy. She’d be welcome back any time. Highly recommend!
From our very first message exchanges, it was clear Stephanie (and her partner, Chris) were great communicators. Any/all questions were answered promptly and by the time we had our first Zoom call, we had already established a sense of trust and comfort. We were glad they were able to arrive the night before we left for our trip. It was a good opportunity to get to know them a bit better and explain the dogs’ routines, where things were around the house, etc. And while we were gone, we appreciate the many photos and updates of happy dogs — tails always up — despite the gloomy weather. The house was in meticulous condition upon our return — always a relief. We’d definitely recommend Stephanie and Chris as house/dog sitters and look forward to hosting them again.
Carolina stayed with Lenny for 5 days this summer while my husband and I were out of town. She was kind, easy to communicate with, and sent me many updates of during the day which helped me relax during our time away. Carolina followed Lenny’s feeding schedule perfectly which is important to me because Lenny is a hungry kitty who also enjoys companionship. She took amazing care of him and of my home, I would invite her back any time! Thank you for everything again Carolina!
We were lucky to have a chance to housesit for Brenda and Ted and spend time with sweet Bernice. Bernice is a gentle and soft feline, who enjoys her routine of snoozing in her favourite safe spot, lounging in the sun and exploring the outdoors. She is extremely independent and always let us know what she needed. Brenda and Ted went above and beyond to make sure we're feeling comfortable. We felt trusted and welcome from the first moments. Brenda had us over for a lovely vegan homemade dinner the night before, which was a great way to get to know each other and meet Bernice. The area of Kawartha Lakes is truly stunning, and we loved being able to explore the nature and come home to a safe and cozy space afterwards. It really is a perfect quaint place to relax and recharge. We would happily catsit Bernice again! Thank you Brenda and Ted!

Amazing kennels, they get well looked after. Ours loves his big bed under the heat lamp in winter. Always comes back tired from all the walks. He was there over his birthday and they did him a special birthday party with the stuff I'd sent him with and did me a lovely video of him having fun.
My dog stayed for 6 nights recently. Having never been away from us in 9 years we were quite anxious. Staff were amazing with him from the moment we dropped him off to picking him up a week later. The updates via text and photos reassured us that he was in safe and loving hands and he’d settled into his new home. Can’t recommend this place enough!
My dog stayed recently for 6 days. He is normally an anxious pup with new people/surroundings but he was made to feel at home and looked after by staff members. The updates (pictures attached) showed he loved his time away and made me feel better knowing he was settled too. Would recommend and use again!
Cannot explain how good this place is. We were very wary about leaving our dog after our first experience with another place but could immediately tell the difference when we visited and at drop off. They clearly all love dogs and that is reflected in the way my dog was cared for. We received daily photos, daily texts and they even said they didn’t want us to pick her up as they all loved her. Our dog came home so happy and I now feel so much more comfortable going away knowing she will be looked after so well next time. The price for the quality is also amazing.
Darrington Dog Boarding hold a very special place in our hearts. They also own Pontefract Dog Rescue which is where we found our fur baby Hela. We were apprehensive leaving her in boarding Kennels but we really didn't have to worry. The same amazing staff look after the boarders as well as the rescue dogs. Hela actually enjoys going which is just amazing news for us. We would totally recommend these wonderful people 💜
We have been using Darington Boarding Kennels for the past 3 years for our Bedlington x Whippet and our Whippet. There is no reason for us to use anywhere else, the experience is always very positive, customer service is spot on but most import is that the dogs are truly cared for. We get photos sent to us of the dogs and updates during their stay. I can’t allocate anything other than 5 gold ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for looking after our young pup Obi whilst we were on holiday. We were initially a bit worried leaving him as it’s our first dog but we had regular updates of photos, videos and messages and we could see he was having a lovely time. Thank you, we’ll be booking again soon. 👍🏻 …
I have used other kennels but none as good as this one. My dogs loved being there. The photos sent to me showed my girls having a fabulous time, there faces showed they were very happy. Thank you to all the staff for looking after them.
Our dog Jasper went to the Darrington dog kennels for the first time , the staff were lovely with him and he settled in well , we will definitely use these kennels again
Always provide great care for our dogs - sending picture updates throughout their stay.
Sarah is a lovely, kind caring lady who put the animals she cares for at the forefront of her dog walking services. I have now used Sarah’s dog walking for three years, and Otis waits with anticipation and eagerness door watching and waiting for her voice, when he knows it’s his day to go with Sarah and his furry friends he simply cannot contain his excitement’. Dogs can’t speak to us, but how he is when he sees Sarah speaks volumes. His tail wags non stop, he is vocal in the sense of being giddy and nudges Sarah to hurry up and get going. He thoroughly enjoys his time out walking and playing, he always comes back tired and ready to rest after running and playing with his furry friends. I would highly recommend Sarah and trust her implicitly with caring for my dog and his welfare whilst in her care.
The most fantastic dog walker I’ve ever had! Sarah is so brilliant, she’s caring and kind to my dog and so respectful of my home too! I wouldn’t trust anyone else more. She ensures that the dogs have the best walk and then that they’re clean enough to come back in the house (which is rare so mine is often cleaned) couldn’t recommend this service enough! My dog loves her dog walks!!
Sarah is amazing. A true animal lover. So glad that i found her. She is friendly, trustworthy as well as being professional ,caring and reliable, and has a real way with the dogs she looks after. My dog can't wait to see her . He watches for her through the window. I would 100% recommend her to anyone.
Sarah has been looking after our dog for nearly 4 years, we've aways been more than pleased. She's reliable, trustworthy and has a real passion for what she does. 100% recommend to any pet owner, big or small!
Sarah is amazing and looks after my mum’s dog Rockie. He sits waiting for her everyday and he can’t wait to be with her. Not only does she look after him she also checks on my mum’s wellbeing as and although it should just be a one-hour walk, she will take him for 3. I do not live near my mum and Sarah not only makes sure the dog is ok but that my mum is ok too, she is reliable trustworthy, and it is great to know she is there for the dog and mum. I 100% recommend Sarah and I know she is there for them both. I have had dog walkers in the past with my dogs but none quite like Sarah.
Great reliable service, ex police officer Sarah has built a very caring relationship with our 13 year old Spaniel.
Couldn’t recommend Sarah enough, she’s brilliant!! My two dogs absolutely love their walks with her and I wouldn’t trust anyone else.
Excellent service. I would highly recommend this business and what’s more, so would Ted 🐾(if he could type!) …
My pets have a better holiday than me! Sarah is a genuine animal lover
Great service, would highly recommend! Jet loved his lunchtime breaks with his Aunty Bev. She sends updates and photos and always let's you know how they've been.
Paws 4 Life takes our little man out for a walk a few times a week, sometimes on his own and sometimes with a group. We get an update after every single walk letting us know how he was, and there are always photos of his adventures! My Westie has a bad paw at the moment, and Bev has loads of useful advice and help, and for us having just moved to the area her recommendations were brilliant! We couldn't ask for a better service from Bev and Paws 4 Life, and my little boy absolutely adores her! Can't thank you enough for the help and advice you give us, and making sure my little man is happy!
Very professional, Years of experience with animal/pet care and it shows in paws4life's work. I highly recommend them if your looking for a dog walker!.
Very professional. Excellent with all pets. Highly recommend.
Great friendly service.
Top class service .. 100% recommend paws & claws services 👍🏼👍🏼 …
Thank you so much to Lucy and Elaine for taking care of Alba while I left him for the first time to go on holiday. The photos and updates were a real nice touch to see how content he was at home with you both and out on adventures/walks. I came home to one very happy boy who'd clearly been loved and cared for as much as I do. I'm sure Alba will look forward to more sleepover nights with you!
Lucy & Elaine looked after my elderly cats recently and they were fantastic. Really appreciated the photo updates and came home to 2 happy cats having received lots of cuddles and attention on their visits :) Will definitely be using them again and would 100% recommend them. Thank you both once again:)
We recently went away for our summer holiday and were so impressed with the care our dog Gus received from Lucy, Elaine and Janice. They did a pre visit to get to know Gus, and Janice did a fabulous job looking after him while we were away and kept us up to date the whole time. We will definitely use them again and highly recommend them!
My daughter recommended these lovely ladies and we are delighted with their service, care and genuine cat love! Our oldies, Barney and Bruno, like a stress free life these days and we came home after a week away to two perfectly happy kitties. Would highly recommend. Daily updates and pictures are especially reassuring. 👌 thank you!
Amazing service, we went away for 10 days to Italy and knew our dogs would be looked after perfectly. We were kept updated by Lucy while away with messages/photos of our dogs and they looked like they were having a great time. She took them on daily walks and to dog parks off their own back. When coming home our house was left clean and in order which is great when coming back from a long holiday. Would highly recommend their service and will be using them again for sure.
Fantastic service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lucy and Elaine, we can not thank you enough for looking after our dog (and our rabbit). As our dog is so young and nervous, the thought of leaving him caused us so much worry. We were definitely worrying for nothing, it didn’t take long for him to completely settle. Thanks to the live in/house sitting service you offer, he could stay in the comfort of his own home whilst we were gone, taking away so much stress for him…..and us! I had regular updates, pictures, messages, all allowing us to enjoy our holiday, knowing he was happy. We’ve already made our next booking for later in the year and our holiday next year will certainly be booked around your availability! Thank you again, we are extremely grateful! 🐾💙
Thank you Elaine and Lucy for looking after our 2 cats Archie and Lily while we were away. You both did a brilliant job and we felt so reassured that you were there to take care of them, giving them lots of TLC plus we loved all the photos you sent us every day, We came back to 2 happy cats and the house was left lovely and clean. Would definitely recommend you to anyone who needs any Pet sitting. Lovely ladies, thank you so much and look forward to next time 😻😻 xxx
Thank you so much to Evie, Lucy and Elaine for walking our boy while we were on holiday and picking him up and returning him to my in-laws. He had a wonderful time. Thank you for the photographs of him wet through while we laid in the sun haha. We will definitely use you again in the future and recommend you to family and friends.
We Love Pets came to the rescue when I needed some specific support for my older, sometimes grumpy dog whilst we went on hol. We are often cautious of who meets our dog as if they don’t listen to our requests when introductions take place, it could result in her being snappy. Elaine and Linda were able to come and meet our dog and 100% listened to what needed to happen for the introductions to be positive. This was then the foundation for a loving relationship with Linda to be built! Linda was calm, kind and caring and very clearly an animal lover. So very gentle with our dog and did things on her terms. When away, I felt fully assured our dog was in very safe and caring hands. They were flexible and accommodating with visit days and times. Wouldn’t hesitate to contact again and can fully recommend to anyone else who may be considering We Love Pets. Their input and care was the difference between us being able to go on a family holiday and not. Communication has been great throughout with responsive messaging. Thank you!
I’ve used them a couple of times now & im really pleased with the service. One very good cat who loves her cuddles each visit. One very shy cat who they worked with to gain her trust & get her to come out for head rubs Getting daily photos on holiday stops me missing them as much & gave me reassurance that they were happy & not missing me! Very reasonable price too.
Our dog Ozzie has boarded with Sandra and her family on 2 occasions now and will be making a third visit. He love it there getting to play with all the other dogs. We received daily Facebook videos and information txts when needed. A invaluable service to any dog owner.
Treats all the dogs like members of their family, nothing is too much trouble. Secure environment with plenty of room for play. My pup was there for over 18 months for doggy day care and absolutely loved it. Highly recommended.
This is an exceptionally professional and well run business. We have recently boarded our cockerpoo here and will definitely be using Sandra's service again. Highly recommended
My dog has been going to Sandra 's for the past 7 months, she adores her and her family, I can go to work knowing that she is safe and extremely well looked after, would highly recommend to anyone Fantastic place and fantastic people
absolutely wonderful lovely lady who cared for our guinea pig sonic whilst we were away. her love for animals is so apparant and she looks after the animals perfectly. would recommend Kerry to anyone wanting to board their small pet. thankyou so much
Our bunny has visited the Pawfect Getaway several times now and we always feel confident that he is getting the best care while we're away. Kerry is so lovely and you can tell she's very dedicated to giving these little animals the best experience during their time away from home. Thank you Kerry for looking after our little bun 🙂 …
Exceptionally clean and very friendly. This is the first time I have left my rabbits with anyone other than family and I am pleased to say that I have no regrets in having done so. First class establishment.
2 lovely people, they care so much about the dogs they look after, couldn't wish for a better place to look after your dog
This place is a fabulous kennels, Monty had been here 3 times now and actually likes going (not sure what that says about me like) he goes in with his tail wagging and comes out exactly the same. The kennels themselves are lovely and have sofas for the doggies it's like their own little room, not just stuck in a cage for the duration of their stay. Also the owners keep in contact with you putting pictures on Facebook, which are a big relief for me knowing my little man is ok whilst were away. I also like the fact he gets to socialize with other doggies (this is optional). I would certainly recommend this place 100%!
Buddy was well looked after and we had a very positive experience, kennels we have used previously have not been suitable for his needs as he does get separation anxiety but doggi divas kept him very occupied and even kept us well informed of his daily events via Facebook by posting photos of him playing, I thought this was a nice touch. I Would definitely recommend to others.
Our little dog recently stayed for 12 days at Doggi Divas. We have never left a dog in kennels before, so we were very apprehensive, but she had the time of her life. She had a sofa to sleep on, got lots of time out to play and interact with dogs and humans alike, and she came home full of beans and happy. Sylvia and her husband clearly love all the dogs they care for like their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to take our dog to stay again and would recommend their care and love in a heartbeat.
Llewie has just had his first ever groom and he loved it! Sylvia was wonderful with him, so kind, patient and professional - just what Llewie needed. Thanks a million Sylvia, we'll be back for sure!
Can highly recommend Doggi Divas, Charlie and chase had a recent two week stay and came back home happy and relaxed, thank you for looking after them so well !
Lovely people to speak with, invited us around to have a look around. Quickly accepted and made the plans despite it being almost 2 hours travel-time. Once there, I was very impressed and pleased with the facilities and was looking forward to boarding there until I got home and tried to get booked in. It seems practically impossible to reach them via phone (called 10+ times and left several voicemails over the course of 4 weeks). In the end, I was forced to book into a mediocre boarding kennel instead. Very disappointed, as they seem like genuinely nice people with great facilities. Please work on your booking and contact procedures guys
I was so worried about leaving my dog. He has only been left once before and is quite a nervous pooch. Well there was no need to be concerned, Doggi Divas have so much love to give, my dog has had his own holiday, with lots of love, cuddles and play time with other dogs. I recieved updates on how he was doing, and the pics showed how happy he was Absolutley! Absolutley amazing! Will not consider taking him anywhere else!!
The second time, I have boarded my dogs here. Brilliant service, dogs always seem reluctant to come home after the holidays. Very clean and well looked after kennels
Absolutely amazing secure place to let your loved ones stay at. My two get excited as soon as they feel the car start to head down the lane to Doggi Divas. Oscar is a funny one who doesn't like a lot of people but he loves both Sylvia and her husband and rushes up to say hi to them as soon as he sees them :-) Highly recommended, don't look anywhere else.
I cannot be anymore grateful for the quality of service I received after taking my two rabbits for some much needed grooming. The knowledge, professionalism and care shown was 11/10. I wish to say a personal thankyou, both from me and my partner and I will definitely be re-booking in due course.
This is the 3rd time Jane has looked after my hamster Bertie and the first two times seem to have been fine but I cannot even describe how upset and angry I am when I have returned home with him this time after leaving him for just over 2 weeks. There was mountains of wee in the corners and his litter tray, his bed was dirty and all wet with mould at the bottom. The water was stagnant and had scum in it. My poor baby has been living in these conditions. I wouldn’t normally do this but this is a living creature who needs and deserves the best care and this was not it.
Brilliant place to leave your Rabbits , well looked after and very reasonable price wise. Lovely woman . Highly recommend. Thank you for looking after my rabbits so well Kind Regards Tracey Green Shafton
My treasured pet rabbits have stayed here on numerous occasions. I know while they are there they are in extremely safe hands with masses of rabbit knowledge and experience.
Best place me and the wife have found that we trust our Rabbit too. No complaints
Lovely woman she do a fantastic job
Perfect little business, convenient personal service where they know your pets by look not just by name.
