I had the pleasure of entrusting Patricia and her wonderful family with the care of my two beloved cats and fishes, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding pet sitting service they provided :) Patricia kept me regularly updated with messages and even sent pictures and videos of my cats, which not only reassured me but also made me smile. It was clear that they were not just doing a "job" but truly forming a bond with my cats. They even cleaned one of my fish tanks after a malfunction of the automatic feeder. I wholeheartedly recommend Patricia and her family to anyone in need of reliable and loving pet sitter.
Byron and Cordy were outstanding sitters on all accounts. They took amazing care of our 2 dogs and all our other animals (chickens, sheep, goats and fish). Their dog Teddy was a delight and settled in very easily with our 2. They took the dogs in regular walks - I don’t think they wanted Cordy and Byron to leave! The house was immaculate when we got back. They had already changed the bedding and took a meal out the freezer for us. They were brilliant

We have used Sarah regularly (several times a week) for over a year to walk our two terriers. She has been reliable and professional throughout this time. She understands our dogs different needs and reports back if anything is not right - one of our dogs is elderly, doesn’t like the heat and can have good and bad days. Sarah meets her needs and works with what each day brings!
Sarah has been taking my two dogs out for walks, generally at least 3 days per week, for about 18 months now, they love their walks with Sarah, on the odd occasion that I am home when she arrives I see how excited they are to see her! She is really conscientious, on wet days she makes sure to towel dry them when dropping them back home & always makes sure they have clean water after their walks. She is really flexible, often taking them out with very short notice! I highly recommend Sarah!!
Sarah is amazing! She is a real dog person, professional, knowledgeable, and adaptable. We would have anyone else looking after our dog, who she has looked after since he was a puppy. She has a background as a veterinary nurse, and cares for other animals on her farm. Our dog cannot wait to leave when she comes to collect him, and he loves staying with when we are away.
Sarah is amazing. She really does deliver a professional service. We have two ex-hunting rescue dogs who are lovely but both have their quirks - she looks after them brilliantly and they absolutely adore their time with her. She's walked them regularly for the past year and even brings some of her dogs over for "play dates" so that ours can have some doggie social fun in a safe setting at home. She's mega reliable, super professional and always gets back to you promptly. She has even helped us out when we've been stuck and has generally been a godsend. I am v picky with who looks after our two boys, but will happily recommend her 100%. If you are at all thinking of getting any help with looking after any of your pets then she is definitely the answer!
Have recently started sending our 20 month old pup to Sarah for extra socialisation and some additional training around livestock and we couldn't be happier. Sarah was recommended to us by a friend, has great general knowledge of dogs as well as being a trained vetinary nurse gives us absolute faith our dog is in good hands for the day. Seen a great improvement in her already and would not hesitate to recommend.
A true professional service with a real person committed to dog welfare and wellbeing. She fully understood the individual client needs and I was thoroughly confident in leaving GEORGE in her capable hands. I have a weekly walk and check up done on the days I'm at work and GEORGE has never been happier. I have tried other dog walkers and never have I felt so comfortable leaving my little boy with a non family member. I would whole heartedly recommend this service.
Received a very good service. My dogs were treated very well. They were happy to go off for their walk. A very professional service offered and I will certainly be using them again
Fantastic service! Sarah is really good with Monkey (Shar Pei) and he loves going there.
We are absolutely delighted with Sarah and her fantastic dog walking service. She is so professional and Rupert adores her.
Excellent professional, friendly service. 100% reliable and would use them every time!
Sarah and her family are so lovely and our dogs love going there! highly recommend
A great and caring service. The owners look after your pet as if it were their own.
Always leave our dogs here. If these guys were bees they would have knees.
5 stars aren’t enough! Amazing care, knowledge and kindness from Kiffy, she really does care about the dogs she looks after, from the minute she meets them. Everyday is a doggy adventure, Bertie sits on the sofa looking out of the window waiting for her to pick him up! I don’t want Bertie to ever be looked after by anyone else (with the exception of Kiffy’s holiday cover) She is not only Bertie’s amazing daily dog carer i also consider her a valued friend.
Dijon, my 3 year old border collie, loves going to stay with Kiffy. I am so paranoid about leaving my pup but I always leave Dijon at Nola & Friends knowing Dijon is in the best care and is having an absolute ball! Kiffy is very communicative, active with the dogs and is very good at adapting to different dogs and their needs. Highly recommend and I myself am a regular client!
Kiffy is one of the very few we trust to look after our dogs. She is treating all dogs like her own and they are so loved when staying with her. Highly recommend her, there aren’t many trustworthy and transparent boarders out there. She is easy to communicate with and sends updates throughout the day. As someone who also offers the same service we are very grateful to have found her and to be able to trust and help each other with our dogs. The boys adore you!
Our 11 yr old Bichon has been going to Nola & friends for over 3 yrs now & we haven't looked back. We feel so blessed to have Nola & friends in our life . Our little man is always happy & excited to be picked up & leaves with his tail wagging . As loving dog owners we have peace of mind knowing he is in the best of hands & so well looked after & loved along with all the attention he needs. We would highly recommend Nola & friends .
Harley has been going to Nola and Friends since he was 4 months old and it it's a home from home for him. He has the best doggy fun and adventures and is so happy and excited when Kiffy comes to pick him up! ☺️😍 …
Can’t recommend Kiffy enough. Margot LOVES her and we get the cutest photos and vids. She’s thoughtful and cares about all the dogs so much - The perfect boarders and humans 🫶🏻 …
Kathryn is absolutely amazing with our two dogs Frank and Olive. She clearly really cares and looks after all the dogs with love. Whether Kathryn has them for a day or a week we always feel completely at ease knowing they are with her and getting well looked after! Both dogs squeak with excitement when we turn the corner onto Kathryn’s road which always makes me smile because I know that means they don’t feel anxious about going to stay there one bit! They love all the cuddles and attention they can get when they’re there. We always get regular picture updates when they are staying which is lovely. Couldn’t recommend Nola& Friends more and Kathryn is always my first port of call if we need someone to take care of our two dogs. Thank you- Sophia, Ben, Frank & Olive 🐾
Hugo has been going to Kiffy since January and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough ! Hugo always has the best time going to a variety of new places, having lots of adventures and even working on training. Hugo has stayed with Kiffy for a week whilst I’ve been on holiday and I have never had to worry as he is truly treated like part of the family. Nola and Friends is truly brilliant!🤍
Our 2 dogs absolutely adore Kiffy. She is an absolute dog whisperer + all the furry pups have the best time in her company. Lovely walks, lots of love + attention + very flexible to work with. She is an absolute god-send for us + would recommend her highly.
Kiffy is absolutely amazing with our girl bella. Bella absolutely adores her, and we know that when she stays with kiffy she has the best time, full of walks, playtime with her furry pals and plenty of adventure. We are 100% confident in the fact kiffy loves them all as if they were her own and gives them the best possible care. We wouldn't use anyone else. Thankyou for being amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ilse was a wonderful find. She’s absolutely marvelous with my elderly cat, who is scared of strangers. She is kind, thoughtful, completely reliable, easy to contact and has been very flexible. It’s a great relief to me to be able to go away, knowing that I don’t need to worry about the cat and Ilse stays in touch throughout. I can’t recommend her highly enough
We really appreciate the care that Ilse provides to our cats when we're away. She's very conscientious and checks up on the house at the same time too. Our cats can be a bit cold but this hasn't been a problem for Ilse, she's been lovely with them and great at keeping us updated too
Have recently used Thame Tails to care for my 2 cats whilst we were on holiday. Isla was very friendly, and visited us prior to our trip, to better understand our requirements. This was very reassuring and meant we could go away without worrying about whether our pets would be ok or not. Isla kept us updated whilst we were away and overall provided a very good service. I would use her again in the future.
Thame Tails offers excellent service looking after our pet regularly. Always great communication setting up dates and keeping us posted on pet care while away.
We use Ilse regularly to look after our cat whilst we’re away and always feel like he’s in really good hands.
We could not be happier with Emily. She watched our dog and brother in law's puppy for the night and brought them along to our wedding for photographs. Our dog is a part of our family and so having her at the wedding was incredibly important to us and so finding Emily was one of the best pieces of planning we did for the wedding. She was reliable and incredibly professional. We knew we were leaving the dogs in very safe hands. She left the house exactly as she found it after staying over. I 100% recommend her as an over night dog sitter as well as for weddings.
Our boys, Harley and Leo having been walked by various members of the Domino Pet Care team over the last 5 years. We use to have regular sessions for a couple of years and then circumstances changed for us and were able to have them down at our yard on a more regular basis. Since then, Emily and her team will be called upon for when we are away on holiday, long weekends or emergencies. I highly recommend the services that Dominos pet care offer, we trust the team implicitly with our animals and having access to our home when no one is around, we have nothing but praise for them.
We have been using Domino’s for several months now and our dog has absolutely fallen in love with them! They have been incredibly flexible and a huge help with allowing my partner and I to balance work life knowing our pup is in safe hands. Emily really took the time to get to know our dog, making sure he was comfortable and happy with the walks and the other dogs he interacts with. Would highly recommend.
We have been using Domino's Pet Care for the last two years and they have been terrific! They have proven to be reliable, flexible and very easy to contact. As a shift worker this has been very important and they have always managed to make arrangements for us. Our spaniel is a rescue dog, but Domino's were great with him and walked him with other suitable dogs. He obviously loves his walks and nothing will stop him running over and seeing Emily or Ian if we see them out and about. A great service all-round and one that I would recommend to anyone needing pet care
We have used Domino's petcare for 18 months and they took the best care of our dog. She is quite timid and requires extra attention, but this was no problem and they made us feel safe in the knowledge that she was being taken care of so we could return to the office! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dogwalker.
We had Emily look after our dog Bruce when we had our wedding reception. We usually rely on family to look after him if we’re away, but on this occasion we couldn’t. From the first contact Emily was friendly and was prompt at replying. The prices are very reasonable, even on a weekend. She had great communication and if we ever need a dog walker or sitter again we’ll definitely be using Domino’s Pet Care!
Emily and her team at Domino's pet care service are quite simply amazing. Could not ask for a better dog walking service. Reliable, flexible and easy to communicate our needs with. Highly recommended.
Emily and her team have walked our dogs almost daily for the past 6.5 years. They have come to our rescue when others have let us down and have been an extremely supportive form of consistency in our dogs’ lives. They go beyond simply walking your dog, they take exceptional care to ensure their wellbeing. They worked with us when we needed to implement certain behavioural enhancing techniques and are acutely aware of the needs of our dogs. We cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Emily.
We have been using Domino pet care for several years and Emily is an indispensable part of our dog Lola’s life.Emily is extremely professional and reliable and is always flexible and willing to help out, sometimes at short notice when our work plans change. We always know Lola is in good hands with her.
We are incredibly grateful for the service that Emily provided. Our dog Luna absolutely loved going out with her and we always knew that she would be well looked after. Emily was always happy to accommodate last minute requests and we couldn't be happier with her. I would highly recommend her!
Karen has been waking Reggie for about 6 months and we couldn’t be happier! It was initially supposed to be just a few weeks due to work but it’s extended way beyond that now, despite this she’s been so accommodating and considerate to our circumstances throughout! Reggie loves his walks and we get constant feedback and love the pictures on insta. Previous dog walkers have been strict with the 1hr door to door policy which means sometimes Reggie only got 30-40 mins in the fields but with Karen it’s always an hour at least. Ultimately we feel safe and happy with Karen and would recommend her to anyone!
Karen is great! My dog Charlie really enjoys his group walks with her which has been fantastic at helping him to socialise more. Karen is always willing to help where she can, wether that be a pop in or an additional walk. Would highly recommend.
We recently used Karen while we were on holiday to walk our Bernese Mountain Dog & elderly Jack Russell Terrier. It was a pleasure to deal with Karen from the off, at our first meeting Karen really listened to our needs and put our minds at rest that she would be able to accommodate our requirements. Karen was very professional throughout with all relevant paperwork and contracts in place, which again left us feeling positive and assured. While we were away Karen kept in touch with photos, video’s and ‘pupdates’ which was a real joy. We would highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for pet services, and we will certainly be using her again in the future.
Karen at Walkies Thame provided an excellent service when looking after our two rabbits whilst we were on holiday. Super communication before, during and after. We felt confident that our rabbits were in good hands whilst we were away and they certainly were. Karen personally tailored the service to meet all of our requests. We won't hesitate using her services again.
Fantastic Dog Walker fully insured plus first aid for dogs . Everything you would want for you 4 legged best friend. My Labrador gets so excited when she she Karen at the gate and can’t wait to get in the car for her next adventure with Karen and her 4 legged friends. Would recommend Walkies Thame 100% very professional and great walks
I was a little tentative asking someone I did not know to walk my dog. However, I was so pleasantly surprised. Karen was friendly, reassuring, flexible around my working days and very professional. Charlie my dog seemed happy and was certainly tired out at the end of his walk. I would highly recommend Karen at Walkies in Thame.
Would highly recommend Karen's services. Our two young boisterous lurcher boys love her and look forward to their walks with her. She is super professional and has great communication with us too.
Walkie's Thame is fantastic! Karen is wonderful and our Indy loves her!!
I can’t fault Karen’s services. She is reliable, trustworthy and professional but most importantly Izzy loves being with her ! 100% recommend.
I highly recommend Karen, brilliant with my young strong dog and looked after him exactly how I asked. Made me feel very confident and happy with Karen walking him.
Love Jo, she has a passion for dogs, is very knowledgeable and caring.
Kelly’s K9s I’ve known Jo for 30+years She’s one of the most amazing dog lovers that boards your dog in her own home not in a kennel She really enjoys her role in caring for your dog Always on hand Highly qualified with lots of training certificates including doggy first aid You couldn’t ask for more professional pet advice Be assured your chum is in safe and loving care whilst you are away Ps check out Kelly’s K9s Facebook page for even more reviews and photos etc
Lovely home from home for my dogs.
The Cat Butler Thame provided a great service looking after our cats whilst we were away on holiday. Sam really took time to get to know them at the consultation visit, and to understand their routine. During our holiday, Sam kept us updated with how they were doing with videos, photos and messages, which made us feel they were being really well cared for. Overall a great service that we'd highly recommend.
Recommended, would happily book again with Sam at The Cat Butler, Thame. We wouldn't have gone on holiday this year if we hadn't felt comfortable, 'cos of where our special little cat is at health-wise. V impressed with how relaxed Saffs looked in a video sent by Sam. Medicine-giving success! Sam also took time getting to know the other 2 small furries in the house. I liked the consistency of time spent at visits, that the intro session was unrushed. And the online booking system: that Sam could come back to us in her time and confirm if a 3rd morning visit was available (it was).
We used The Cat Butler Thame for the first time last week to look after our cat Gary while we were on holiday. The process was very thorough, including the online portal where we uploaded information regarding Gary and his requirements, in advance of our trip. We met Sam and Andy prior to going away which was very useful. Gary took to them straight away! Andy visited Gary every day and sent us updates with photos and videos which reassured us that he was well and being cared for. Gary was so much happier being in his own home compared to when he returns from the cattery where he can be unsettled for several days. We were very pleased with the overall experience and will definitely use The Cat Butler again.
The Cat Butler service has been an absolute game changer. Sam from Thame looked after my cat in August and Lucy from Buckingham looked after him in September - both great experiences. Incredibly attentive, and they provide regular updates with photos and videos, so I knew my boy was in great hands. My cat adored both Sam and Lucy, and it's clear that they genuinely love what they do. It is also a relief to know that your home is secure and being checked on. Highly recommend!
From inital enquiry to home visit to the actual cat sitting I have been super impressed by Andy and Sam at the Cat Butler Thame. Their online portal allows you to fill out all sorts of information about your cats, home, routines and even some pictures. This ensures all parties understand everything. During the cat sitting itself we were provided with daily updates via whats app including pictures and videos. Andy went out of this way to seek out the cats to ensure they had some human time each day. He was also super helpful in collecting up the mail and any parcels. Despite being based in Thame they happily cover our area of Ewelme and Benson. I would thoroughly recommend the services of The Cat Butler. We look forward to using them time and time again.
Can highly recommend The Cat Butler, Thame - Sam and Andy provided an excellent service for our elderly female cat, who is definitely better off in her own home. They spent time with her, amongst doing the daily chores. It was great peace of mind whilst we were away to know that not only the cat, but the house we being cared for so professionally. Thank you.
Thank you so much to Andy and the Cat Butler Thame team for the fantastic service we received during our recent holiday. Following a pleasant introductory meeting, we were sent in depth videos, updates and photos on how the cats were doing which were so reassuring to us. They also managed to organise a last minute butler visit after our plane was heavily delayed. We are so so impressed with their service, and will 100% be using them again 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We were really happy with the service provided by Andy and Sam. They kept in contact with us via WhatsApp, posting daily updates ( including videos). Their booking portal was straightforward to use. When we were faced with the possibility that our return flight would be cancelled we knew that we didn’t need to worry about the cats, they were in safe hands. We have already booked our next visits from this brilliant team.
I cannot recommend The Cat Butler Thame highly enough! Sam did an absolutely amazing job looking after my two cats and my home. Her attention to detail and genuine care for my pets were evident in every interaction. The bi-daily updates were a staple -always reassuring and filled with thoughtful observations about my girls' well-being. It was such a relief to know they were in such capable hands. I’m convinced my cats still miss her! 😅 I returned home to two happy, relaxed cats and a safe, well-looked-after house. If you're looking for reliable, professional, and caring pet sitting services in the Thame or Chalgrove area, look no further than The Cat Butler! Thank you Sam! From Allen, Poe and myself 😸
We have just returned from a trip away and used Sam at The Cat Butler for the first time as we recently moved to the area. She provided an incredible service with frequent updates on our cat during our trip. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using Cat Butler again
Marcus has been looking after my dog (and previous one) now for approx 10 years. I have used both day care and boarding. You can tell he loves the dogs and the dogs love going to his facility. During the summer its great to see the dogs in the pool cooling off or just enjoying air conditioning. The dogs are socialised and trained throughout the time there. He has a good knowledge of dogs behaviour & health, which he is always helpful to discuss. Nothing more true than the statement "home from home". Thoroughly recommend Marcus's services.
We have been using Marcus's day care and boarding services for our cocker spaniel Dex for over 2 years. Dex absolutely loves his time there and trots off quite happily to Marcus in the mornings on his day care days, even waiting by the door for him. We couldn't be happier with the service & facilities provided, Marcus takes great care of the dogs which gives us such piece of mind when we are away. Highly recommend!
Marcus is both caring and knowledgeable. Defo not your standard kennels. Hands on, expert care with plenty of interest and stimulation. We only leave our Wolfie to stay here 2 or 3 times a year, but it's important to us that we can have a happy holiday knowing he is having one too. Highly recommended.
We left our sweet Newfoundland Amari with Marcus when we went on our summer holiday and it was heaven knowing that Amari was having a holiday as well. We could truly relax knowing she was safe, happy and having the time of her life! Buckinghamshire Dog Walkers has so much space and active play in built on site not to mention the care, knowledge, experience, safety and playfulness on hand from Marcus and his team. (Amari even came on her season early while we were away !! And Marcus had the knowledge and experience to look after her and his other boarders so that we came home to a very happy (and chaste!) dog.) We are delighted to recommend Buckinghamshire Dog Walkers. Leaving your dog with someone is an act of faith but with Marcus, it’s simply the right thing to do. Thank you, Marcus x
Marcus has cared for our three dogs impeccably since they were puppies. Not only loving them and caring for them, but supporting us in discipline where agreed and guiding us with behaviours as we encounter them. We feel completely safe knowing our babies are in the best care, and he always keeps us updated so we don’t ever miss them too much!
Marcus has looked after our Boxer boy for 7 years both via day care and boarding and has provided more than a home from home environment as I think it is actually better than home! Heat lamps for winter, air-conditioning in the summer, walks that are stimulating and fun. Marcus has supported him after various operations including providing an orthopaedic bed for his sole use and held a special party for him on his 10th birthday - these unique and special touches are what sets Marcus apart from other daycare services. Our boy comes home happy and tired after a day at Buckinghamshire Dog Walkers and has remained fit and healthy and well socialised. We can't thank him enough!
Marcus has been looking after our dog for over five years since he was a puppy. Great care, good training, and extremely convenient and flexible service. Highly recommend the business.
Highly recommend. Marcus and Justyne have looked after my dog for four years. It’s a home from home with plenty of space and stimulation. Monty loves it! He comes home, happy, tired and clean. 🐾🐾🐾 …
Marcus is absolutely fabulous he has had Mocha regularly for me right from the start Mocha loves going to Marcus and obviously has a wonderful I can honestly say i never ever worry about Mocha when i am away Marcus' care of the dogs is second to none Thank you Marcus
Five star quality dog care and boarding facility. The owners treat our dogs like their own - a home away from home. Highly recommended.
Nina was so helpful when had to take a last minute trip. She came, fed and looked after my cat Wilson like he was her own, he enjoyed lots of cuddles. Nina even sent me updates on how he was doing while I was away. Really quick at responding and flexible. Highly recommend her to anyone with an animal they love. She is now dog walking for my mum. Thank you Nina, amazing service.
After 4 months of using We Love Pets to look after our new puppy, it is the right time to write an informed review. Nina has looked after our puppy Micky from June and has proven herself to be reliable, trustworthy and passionate in her love for animals. Nina has a wealth of experience and has enabled us to own a lovely well trained pet. Nina knows the puppies limitations and what situations are positive and negative for him and always puts safety first. Nina has always managed our expectations and we value her input. Nina is key holder to our home and is considered part of the family, we have a well trained and cared for bull dog and we thank Nina for all her hard work and her genuine love for him as much as we do. Micky adores Nina and we feel very grateful to have her.
Nina was so reliable and flexible, it was so nice to actually find someone reliable as we’ve been let down previously. My dog Max loves it when she sits him and he’s always so excited when she arrives. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!
Nina was amazing with my house bunnies. They're usually get quite stressful when they come back from boarding, but not from Nina. She just has a way with any animal. Amazing service!
Nina looked after my mother in laws dog brilliantly. Cared for Poppy like her own. Would highly recommend, total professional
