We had a wonderful experience with Cheryl! She was attentive and patient with our cat and had great communication while we were away. We were gone for 3 weeks and came home to a spotless house! We’d be happy to have her sit again.
Aimee and Marshall were such excellent sitters! They took care of my dog Darlie for about 1.5 weeks when I was away, and did an amazing job -- They treated Darlie with so much love and care as if he was their own dog, they were very attentive to his needs and asked questions whenever needed. I felt very comfortable leaving Darlie with them, even with his special needs (he needs to take pills daily). They are very communicative and easy to coordinate with, sent daily updates as well. And when I had to extend my trip due to falling ill on my trip, they were so flexible and were willing to stay a few more days with Darlie, which was a HUGE help while I was recovering. They also left the apartment spotless when I came back. Overall it was a really awesome experience having them over, and I would do it again in a heartbeat! I hope our paths cross again in the future!

Thank you to Sarah at Waggy Tails for once again taking care of our doggy Bear whilst we were on holiday recently. Bear has stayed at Waggy Tails a few times now and we know he has a lovely holiday of his own with plenty of walks and a lovely secure paddock and play area to run around in. He gets home from home care and comforts and loves spending time with Sarah's little dog Maisie who is a great playmate and snuggle buddy for Bear. Waggy Tails' facilities are excellent and we love receiving the daily pupdates of Bear's adventures whilst we're away 🙂
Our cockapoo Bear had another wonderful stay at Waggy Tails. So glad we came across Sarah and we know that Bear is in safe caring hands whilst we're away. I found the idea of leaving Bear incredibly hard in the beginning but all my worries were eased by Sarah and have been able to enjoy our times away knowing Bear is having a great time on his holidays too. We love getting the daily pupdates and seeing Bear happy and relaxed. The facilities at Waggy Tails are fab with regular walks, a lovely enclosed paddock to run around in and a mini assault course to keep the pooches entertained. They have a comfy home from home environment inside with lots of cuddles too! This place is a little gem 😊
Our dog Betsy came to Sarah for daycare while we were on holiday in the area. Betsy had a fantastic time and was super excited to come back after the first day. Sarah is lovely, friendly and communicated clearly as well as being great with the dogs, and sent photos/ videos on the day.
The care & service Sarah provides is absolutely outstanding. A true professional who is committed to every dogs needs in her care, one of our dogs needs are quite complex & Sarah demonstrates patience & understanding whilst supporting her with so much love & reassurance whilst we are away. We really cannot recommend Sarah enough, your doggie will be safe, loved, have fun & be nourished within a home environment that’s calm, beautiful & with its own exercise paddock & field. 5 star Recommendation.
Waggy Tails was recommended to us by a friend and we are so happy that we have found Sarah! Our Cavapoo has been going to daycare for a few months and he’s just had his first home boarding stay. He absolutely loves Sarah and she is great at giving us updates and pictures throughout the day. She really offers a home from home service and we would highly recommended her!
Waggy tails offers an outstanding level of dog care. Sarah recently looked after our dog Bruno for nearly 2 weeks while we were away on holiday and he didn’t want to leave when we collected him! There is noone more trustworthy and caring to leave you pet with, he truly became part of the family and it was so lovely to receive daily photos/videos of him having a great time while we were away. I could not recommend Waggy tails enough, a truly exceptional service.
We have used Sarah’s services for the last 3 years for our cockapoo and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Sarah is professional, organised and caring and best of all, she has treated Rufus like her own dog. It genuinely feels like staying with Sarah is a home from home for him. She understands and accommodates his little quirks and provides us with plenty of pup-dates, photos and videos for reassurance whilst we’re away. We have absolutely no hesitation about recommending her home boarding service, particularly in her fantastic new location.
Leaving our girl with sarah was a huge step as she has only been left with family before but all of our concerns were eased as soon as we met Sarah from Waggy Tails. our girl loved sarah from the offset which is a first for our girl! Sarah guided us very professionally, efficiently, friendly and practically through what her business has to offer which is like a dogs home from home with their own secure private playground along with a experienced dog carer who opens her home to all of her 4 legged visitor's. Waggy Tails and Sarah are a dream come true for fur kid parents and the area which the dogs play in is very secure and monitored. Sarah is very straightforward and easy to get along with as she gets how precious her boarders are which is a great comfort when your away as you know your dog is having as good (if not better ) holiday at waggy tails while you are away. A gem of a find ✨️ 💯😁
Waggy Tails is beyond your average daycare because of Sarah’s professionalism and cleanliness of all surroundings. Sarah provides your dog so much more care and attention compared to other daycares and takes a real interest into your dogs needs and well-being. I’m so happy I’ve found Waggy Tails because I know my Bella is going to have a wail of a time whilst she’s there and I’m reassured that Bella is in safe hands because of the pup updates Sarah provides over WhatsApp. Sarah provides a unique daycare service which I highly recommend.
Outstanding - I can’t recommend Sarah enough, Waggy Tails is a like a little slice of doggy paradise!! We left Teddie there for three weeks this summer and without a doubt she had a fabulous time. Sarah sent us regular “pupdates” so we knew exactly how Teddie was doing meaning we could relax and enjoy our holiday knowing that she was in the best care possible. It was like a little 5* holiday for Teddie as she spent her days playing with her new buddies and from what I can tell, most evening’s were spent snuggled up on Sarah’s knee. We definitely wouldn’t use anyone else but Waggy Tails for doggy boarding and are already booked in for next year!
Our girls have been extremely well looked after at Ty Gwyn. It is so very reassuring to know that they are being well cared for. We loved the updates and photos on their whatsapp chats too. Both of our dogs looked so happy with the staff. Thank you so much. We will be back January 25! Xx
Gibbs loved his week with you,he loves the girls,he came back happy,well fed and clean,we used to use another one a couple of miles away ,but you knock them in to touch you are no1,see you in January. We know he will be looked after and it's a pleasure for him to stay with you and peace of mind for us,All ready have him booked in 3 times next year with more to follow.
Excellent Kennels. I can’t recommend them enough. All the staff are incredible. Thank you for taking such good care of my puppy Margot, she loves her days at ‘Woof Club’ xxx
My fur baby had a wonderful holiday and the photos we were sent gave us comfort seeing him so happy. Would definitely use again. Thank you 😊 …
The girls at Ty Gwyn are simply fabulous! Our little Mabel adores being at woof club and that is because they all care so much for our furry family members. A HUGE shout out to Lou who did a marvellous job at grooming our rather knotted pup recently - you’re a star, thank you!
I am really happy to board my dog at Ty Gwyn. The staff are so friendly and really do look after all the animals very well. Highly recommend this kennels, I wouldn’t leave my precious pet just anywhere!
Based on my experience with the staff and Keisha's reaction when we arrive to drop her off I can only say good things. For example, when we visit the vet, I have an awful job getting her through the door, but when we came here for the second time in three weeks in she struts tail wagging and when the girls become to take her through, off she goes without a backward glance. That speaks volumes.
As always my dogs and cats were happy to be dropped off at Ty Gwyn and went happily with the staff. This stay was the longest I have left them but I had no worries as I knew they would be well looked after. The shyest dog was really happy and I think she would have stayed when I collected them. I would highly recommend Ty Gwyn and wouldn't leave my pets anywhere else
My girl has come back home today after a week at Ty Gwyn, she had a wash before leaving and smells divine! She always comes back looking like she had fun and when we drop her off the next time she is happy enough to run in with the girls (no looking back at mum)! Always a friendly face by the staff so will happily return and recommend! 🐕❤️ - @cassiethegermanshep
Really can’t thank Lou enough for the care and patience that she has shown Olive since we started to have her groomed at Ty Gwyn. She has become so much more relaxed with the process and always comes out looking and smelling fabulous. The whole team at Ty Gwyn are amazing and whether Olive is having a groom or having fun in Woof Club (genuinely the highlight of her week!) I know that she’s happy and in safe hands.
I was so worried about leaving my african grey, especially as I have never left him longer than a couple of days before. They are such sensitive birds. I was put completely at ease from the beginning, I had daily updates which was so nice as I missed him so much and it was so nice to know he had settled okay. He also had another african grey there to chatter away with. I wouldn't think of taking him anywhere else from now on. Thank you so much ❤️
Maxine has been looking after my 2 pugs Bertie & Louie0 for over 4 years. Maxine is amazing and I know when my pugs stay with Maxine and her husband Charles, my dogs are welcomed with open arms and treated as part of their family. I receive regular updates and photos whilst away and i can see my dogs are happy and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Bretton Pet Sitting!
I feel totally confident when I Ieave my two dogs with Maxine in her lovely home. She is very reliable, attentive and professional and my dogs come home happy, healthy and relaxed. I have been leaving my dogs with Maxine for 6 years and would highly recommend her.
Maxine looked after our FIV+ cat with visits twice a day. The process was incredibly clear from start to end and she was very professional and helpful in reassuring us. Our cat took an immediate liking to her. We got a daily updates with highly entertaining pictures and she was willing to water our plants and put the bins out. If you want a very responsible catsitter to make your holiday as worry free as possible, we would highly recommend her.
Maxine is amazing with house visits and hone boarding. My dogs go to her house and love their time there. They sulk when they come home. Maxine visits my house and looks after my other pets while I’m away. It’s complete peace of mind. Ten out of ten! Book early as Maxine books up very quickly
This place is brilliant providing a home from home for your pet. Nothing is too much trouble.
Maxine is amazing, kept us updated with photos and videos all holiday and our whippet absolutely loved her and her time with the boys!
Gus just loves Maxine, I always recommend her for friends wanting a dog sitter.
My dog us always looked after exceeding well everytime due visits. They accomodate her needs and keep me informed on how she is.
My dog loves his visits and is always happy to go .
Wonderful service - Rebecca and the team go above and beyond. They were willing to persevere with our hesitant spaniel! Communication is quick, while staff are reliable and friendly. Would 100% recommend.
We have just finished a series of beginners training sessions with our cocker spaniel puppy. He has grown in confidence tremendously since starting training and, we all (humans included) have learnt so much in the process. Positively framed training delivered in a supportive and informative manner. Without this training we wouldn't have the confident dog we now have. We are gutted that we have completed the course, but can't wait to get involved in some of the other workshops that are in the pipeline. Our puppy will also be getting involved in group walks as soon as he is old enough and we can't wait to see his development under the care of Rebecca. Thank you, A Passion Fur Pets!
We couldn't recommend Rebecca enough! She was very patient and attentive, and made the classes fun for the dogs and us. She was always willing to help out with other behaviour issues we mentioned while in class, and all of her advise has really helped. We had a very shy and anxious dog at the beginning and now she's really come out of her shell and is comfortable around people and other dogs. Thank you, we'll be looking out for the other add on courses you're planning!
Rebecca came to our house to give one to one training to our 5-month-old Cocker Spaniel puppy and us. Our puppy loved the sessions and was always excited to see her and desperate to learn. Rebecca was friendly and knowledgeable; she covered a wide range of commands in the sessions and tailored them to address the issues we were facing. There was so much that we didn't know about puppy training, and now we feel much better equipped to continue his training from the solid foundation Rebecca gave us all.
As a new Cocker Spaniel puppy owner (and one who’s only ever known cats), Rebecca at Passion Fur Pets was a huge help for me. Rebecca came to our home to deliver private guidance and training over 6 weeks that was invaluable. We learnt ways to offer enrichment, best tips for his diet, how to train recall, loose lead walking and more. It’s really helped and I’ve found through training we’ve bonded more! We also now have a local dog walker that our dog knows well and loves. Highly recommend getting support from Rebecca and the friendly team.
Rebecca’s class for our pup Bruno was amazing. We learnt so much that we now use every day. The harness that was recommended that we bought was a game changer for us. Bruno doesn’t pull and we have more control. It’s a great buy I would advise others to have one definitely!!!
Rebecca has been walking our spaniel since she first started up and honestly he wouldn't be the dog he is today without her. She has massively helped to train his recall from a very young age and given him the opportunity to develop his social skills around other dogs. Rebecca provides feedback on your dog, regular photos, and she is extremely flexible with changing days and weeks for walking your pet! She makes sure she takes the dogs to different places regularly and even cleans them off when she gets back so they're not too dirty, not only this but she gives our dog his lunch when we're not home after a walk. She makes sure to go above and beyond, to provide the 5* service! Highly recommend. Thank you Rebecca!
Rebecca is fantastic, our Lab loves his pack walks with his doggy friends and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Rebecca had so much patience when he was a puppy and a bit scared of the van, nothing too much trouble! We also had some training sessions which were amazing, Rebecca is very knowledgable. Highly recommend!
A Passion Fur Pets provide a brilliant dog walking service! My Miniature Dachshund can be wary around other dogs but Rebecca and the team listened to this and he has a great time! Easy to deal with and arrange the walks in a structured way!
Rebecca provides a reliable and excellent service. My dog Ralph loves going out for walks with her and his dog pals. Rebecca is also a qualified trainer, so I know Ralph won't be picking up any bad habits on his walks! I would absolutely recommend A Passion Fur Pets.
Jennifer is very passionate about her job and is very professional. Jennifer has helped many of our dogs at the rescue and cared for them when I’ve needed help. Taken our dogs who have needed some training out and about and given them much needed time and patience. Would highly recommend.
Great service. Our dog Benge loves going out with Jen and we're happy because she clearly cares for him. The weekly pack outing is good for his social life and he goes to the sort of wooded, muddy, hilly places he loves. I unreservedly recommend Jen and For the Love of Dogs.
Jenny provides an amazing service. Always reliable and trustworthy. Barney absolutely loves going out with Jenny for walks and socialising with the other dogs. Fully recommend her !
Chewie absolutely adores his walks with Jenny twice a week. Not only does Chewie come back happy, but he's also completely knackered, which is a testament to the amazing exercise and care he receives. We couldn't be happier with the service, and we highly recommend Jenny to anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated professional. Thank you for taking such great care of Chewie!
Best dog Walker I’ve ever had. The amount of detail shown is brilliant putting the welfare of the animals first. Tried different ones in the past who offer day care but nothing beats going to new locations for new sniffs with his friends. Always does early walks if hot or includes a swim in the walk. The team have my full trust and I wouldn’t want anyone else looking after my boy, Dexter. Thanks for everything
We trusted Jenny from the moment we met her. Our cockapoo loves going out with Jenny and the other dogs and we know she is in safe hands. We would certainly recommend!
Jen has walked my dog multiple times and only person I’d trust. Also being in the same profession I’ve seen her and her sheer brilliance at work. Highly recommend.
Jen is brilliant with dogs and my springer spaniel worships her. She’s got so much from their group walks, they’ve made her really confident, and because they play games as well as walk, she’s worn out afterwards
My dog Barney has been with Jen for the last 5 years and definitely prefers her to us 🤣 he loves his walks with her and the pack …
Jen is great with my dog, would definitely recommend this service
Juliette managed to squeeze our dog Storm in last minute which allowed us to get away in the summer holidays. We were quite anxious with it being our first time leaving him for an extended stay. The staff were really helpful and after making a quick visit to show us around, we were sure he would be fine. Whilst away we got plenty of pictures which settled any nerves we had. Big thank you to all the team who looked after Storm, we will definitely be back again (with more notice next time!) Many thanks Kirsty, Mark and Storm 🐾
Always very accommodating with requests. My two cocker spaniels trot in happily for drop off and come back happy. Lovely facilities too.
It took me a long time to find Kennels that I was happy with for my Dogs and then I found Ewloe Kennals. Tilly my 12 year old Bichon’s has been to Ewloe Kennels every year since she was a year old along with my other Bichon Brooke, who passed away A year ago, this was her first time going into the kennels on her own, and she was fine, she loves all the girls and they’ve always got plenty of time to give her extra cuddles and treats I think she’s got the girls wrapped around her little paw 🐾 😁 The Kennels are lovely very modern each kennel has loads of room they’re also heated, which is great if they’re going in over the winter months. I can’t thank them enough for looking after my fur baby. 🙏🐾🐾
I have no hesitation in recommending Ewloe Boarding Kennels, Cattery and Rabbit Retreat. I have taken my pets (dogs previously and numerous cats) there since the 1970’s and they have always been very settled and relaxed. When the current owners took over I was a little concerned but in fact they have improved the facilities. Flawless service.
Great place to take your cats. Very clean, nice pens, friendly staff. Can’t remember if there are cat flaps between the interior spaces and the outer ones but if not, it would really help to keep the interior areas warmer and out of drafts especially in winter, without having to wait for the nightly shut. Cats are used to being cosy inside, after all. Otherwise, all great.
I’ve used Ewloe Rabbit Retreat for my bunnies multiple times. The hutches are a good size, and well maintained. The bunnies are kept away from the other residents so it is safe and peaceful for them. They’re provided with nuggets, hay and fresh greens, but you can bring your own nuggets if your bun has a sensitive tum. The team are amazing; so friendly and definitely animal people! My buns are well looked after and it’s like a little holiday for them when I’m away on my hols. Great price for bunny boarding!!
Left my beautiful dog Cali in their care for 3 weeks. Collected today, very well taken care of and they even gave her a bath so she smells gorgeous! Would highly recommend, total peace of mind whilst away with lots of photos for reassurance. 5stars, would give more if I could. Massive thank you to all the staff x
Ewloe Kennels and the staff really ensure our Bruce has a happy and settled stay. The staff post regular updates when playing and giving him treats. Watching him in a warm and secure environment always gives us great comfort when away. Thanks Ewloe and team you are terrific!!!
Been taking my doggo here for a fair few years now. She is a hyped up collie with adhd, who doesn't like many people. She has a fabulous time here and the ladies at the kennels say how lovely she is. She always comes home very happy. Lovely place
We believe this is the best kennel in the area! Always clean, open for viewings at any time , and, most importantly, our dog is well cared for and happy to go and stay and we know he is safe. I highly recommend Ewloe kennels.
Spon green kennels and cattery is amazing kennels are really clean, feel so comfortable leaving my dogs there . The exercise garden is great for the dogs to run about safe and secure.the owner Norma is professional and really nice . Highly recommend this place
A great place that my dog Jinx loves to spend time at. We had been recommended here by someone and even though it is a bit far away from us, it is worth it. It's a credit to the staff when your dag can't wait to get in there and have you leave. Thanks everyone.
Norma and her team are brilliant and our two Labradors - Jessie & Sandy are looked after perfectly whenever we need them, be it a short or long stay. They kennels are VERY clean, heated (underfloor) and spacious. The rates are also very reasonable. Thank you once again for being there for us when we need you. xx John and Claire.
Perfect place for our pampered pooch
A huge thankyou to Norma & The Team for taking such good care of Buddy & Mojo whilst we were away on holiday. We could rest assured that they were in good hands. They even sent us some photographs of them which were brilliant. They are immaculately clean & well fed whilst being there & come back Happy! Sincere gratitude to you all! Xx
My dog has been going there for two years. I wouldn't take her anywhere else.
What a great service, highly recommend, normally you worry about putting your dog into kennels Norma and staff treat them as if they were their own pets, a big thank you for the care you give :-)
Our 2 German shepherds have never been away from us so we wanted to be sure they're settled and comfortable and I can't believe how happy they are. So much so they've been twice already and we have booked 3rd stay. I can't recommend enough. Kennels are clean and fresh and most of all indoors. Rather than just a yard, there's also grass area which makes things a lot better for our 12 year old with hip problem.
My 3 dogs have had their holidays at Spon Green Kennels, they have had a lovely time, Norma and the helpers are all lovely and you can tell they are true animal people, I can't recommend it enough, they will definitely be going again. Thanks again X
My dog absolutely loves going to doggy day care.. runs in, doesn’t look back.. the staff are so friendly and I love getting the videos when they all play out together
My boys have been going to the Dogilodge for years. They settle quickly as it's a home from home. Lynne sends up dates while I'm away and it's lovely to know they are happy. Would highly recommend
Firstly id like to send a big thank you to lynne and mark. I left my dog sky with them while on holiday and sky was in the best care. She has never been with anyone else always with me but she has come on leaps and bounds since her stay at dogilodge. Due to an accident on holiday which left me needing operation dogilodge help me out with skys well being.to which im eternally gratefull. I highly recconmend dogilodge for ur special dog they treat them as there own with genuine love and affection. Many thanks Dogilodge x
What a fantastic place this is. We have left our dog here on numerous occasions and he has come back in fantastic condition. This time he was very poorly beforehand and on lots of medication and diet restrictions but we've collected him today and he is in fantastic health thanks to lynne and mark. I would not leave billy with anyone else. As well as brilliant care the dogs have a whale of a time enjoying loads of different activities!! Thanks both....xxxxx
We use Dogi Lodge to take care of our babies when we can't take them away with us. It's like putting them in a 5star hotel, they're spoilt rotten and looked after so well. I swear my dogs want us to book holidays just so they can go to Lynne's.
Fabulous host. Would not leave our fur babes with anyone else. Lynne is an absolute diamond, our Shih Tzu and Lhasa are so at home when they are there.
Easily the best place my dog has ever been. The people are so welcoming. My dog never wants to leave, she always has such a good time.
Always leave my dog Bailey with Lynne and mark they are amazing won't leave him with anyone else Bailey loves his time there x x
I always leave Fleur at Dogilodge. Lynne and mark aer the best and treat our dog so well.
My dog loves staying with Lynn and Mark. Friendly and dedicated
Our dog loves coming here its like being in her own home well looked after by the owners couldn't ask for better
