Steven and Paul were my first sitters and I left for my trip feeling confident and very comfortable with them. They made regular contact while I was away with photos of very happy hounds. I returned to a very clean and tidy home, and content dogs. I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you chaps. I would have to you back to sit in a heartbeat.
If I could leave more than five stars I would! Leanne and Tom were wonderful seeming to really enjoy the house and loving the cats. I had photos of many cuddles and even a photo of Alfie and Lulu sending a birthday message! Now trying to figure out when I can invite them back! Thank you Luanne and Tom!

First time clients of Paula's we have 3 high maintenance dogs and a cat. Amazing service and very very happy with how Tilly looked after our pets. The house was immaculate almost like Tilly had never been. Highly recommend.
We're always very pleased with Paula and the care she gives. Our dog always has the time of his life with her, playing with all his pals and exploring the amazing secure field.
Paula always goes above and beyond to look after our pets when we are away. I would always use Paula first, before looking elsewhere!
My cockatoo loves her walks with Maddy & Paula and returns happy and tired out! Always friendly punctual and reliable I would highly recommend their services!
Love this field!! Boys love it too, can run round with no fear of escape & sniff to their hearts content
Lovely trustworthy ladies who are wonderful with my dog. Highly recommended!
Charlie loves his time with Paula and his friends
Good place for dog to run around off lead
Thank you so much for this 5* award😊 …
Tracy and her husband took care of my cat for 5 days, and he absolutely loved them! He normally doesn’t like strangers, but he seemed to warm up to Tracy from the first day, and he was very happy to see her every day! It definitely allowed me to relax knowing he was being taken care with such great care!
Tracy looked after my cat and rabbits while we were away for 10 days. It was not ideal timing because we had builders there while we were away and my cat is very wary of strangers at the best of times. Although Tracy didn’t see my cat every day she reassured me that he had been coming in for food every night. She also did a brilliant temporary repair job for me when one of my rabbit homes developed a hole in the bottom of it. She kept in regular contact and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
We have two female cats with very different personalities and like any pet owner, we are anxious that they are fed, watered and cared for while we are away. This was the first time that we have used Maccy G Pets service and we can report that we are very happy with the service. Tracy visited us to meet our cats before we travelled which was a nice touch. Tracy kept us updated with daily videos of her interactions with the cats and when we returned all was well with them and our home. Thank you for the care. We would happily recommend their service.
We could not be happier with the service provided at such short notice. Our two elderly cats absolutely love Tracy. Sadie, our eldest at 18 with failing kidneys is a hard nut to crack and very hard to please but the daily photos showed us that she was very happy in Tracy's company, along with Jinx, who has suffered with separation anxiety previously. She took the time to come and visit and introduce herself to the cats prior to starting to care for them. We have booked again as they have been so well looked after.
Having Tracy to look after our Maine Coon kittens for a week meant that we could go on holiday without worrying about them. We had daily video updates to show all the strokes and attention they were getting! And they were bright eyed and bushy tailed happy kitties when we got home :) We would recommend Maccy G Pets without hesitation!
It was the first time we used Maccy G and they were fantastic We went away for a week and Diane was absolutely wonderful. Our cat Archie is very shy but Diane was so patient and managed to help him overcome his shyness and I could see from the photos she sent that he looked so happy and content. It took away all our worries about leaving him. They are wonderful and we will always ask them to look after Archie when we go away. We really would recommend them. 😀
Tracy is a very experienced and trustworthy person who has a real gift/talent in looking after pets. Everything from pre-visit to regular updates whilst on holiday was brilliant. The pets were extremely well cared for and we didn’t have to worry at all whilst away. We would highly recommend this pet sitting service.
We booked Tracey to come twice a day for 5 days, to feed our 2 cats, while we were away. She came to visit before hand and meet them, the paperwork was quick and easy to complete and as she'd already looked after other family member's pets, we didn't have any concerns about the care she'd provide. She wanted to keep their routines as similar to normal as possible and was happy to spend time with them on her visits, brush them, play with them etc. Turns out, as our cats are total wimps, they didn't want to spend much time getting to know her, but Tracey made sure we knew they were safe by contacting us with photos or video of them when she popped in. Although this is her business and it would potentially reduce her profit, Tracey offered to cut back from two to one visit per day, due the cats having access to inside and outside space and eating dried food. We did take her up on this and saved ourselves a few pounds - thanks Tracey. Our cats, Percy and Archie, would not have coped well in a cattery, so this was a great option. Although they were probably a little miffed with us going away, they were both fed and watered and happy to see us in our return. Photo of Archie who was pretty illusive while we were away.
Had a fabulous experience with Tracy looking after my two turtles. You can tell she cares greatly about keeping animals safe, happy and healthy and wants to learn about their personalities. I felt super comfortable leaving my turtles in her care, she sent me daily updates with photos which really put my mind at ease while I was away! 💚 Cheap and friendly service that I will be using again!
We left my 3 individual cats in Tracy’s care for a week whilst on holiday. They are all happy and healthy. We were sent videos each day that gives you great confidence in this business. David Norwich
Michelle is the best dog boarder. Our Romanian rescue Kayla is very happy to be part of her pack. Michelle and her dogs are very welcoming, and puts you at ease straight away. She really understands dogs and is a very good judge of their character and how they will fit in. The dogs are loved and fussed and she really offers a home from home experience. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!! Thanks Michelle, and her family, for making a very nervous rescue, and her mum, extremely happy.
We recently left our Spaniel Willow with Cranford Dog Care whilst we went on holiday for 6 nights. It can be scary leaving your pets in someone else's care, but there is no one else I have more confidence in than Michelle. Her communication throughout the holiday, letting us know how Willow was, sending us pictures was fantastic. I had all the faith in the world that Willow was in the best hands and care possible. Cranford Dog Care offer a super clean, (I don't know how she has such a clean house as a home boarder!!) warm home from home holiday for your pups while you go away. It meant we could totally relax and enjoy our holiday without worrying about Willow! Could recommend enough!
We absolutely love Cranford Dog Care. Michelle is so welcoming. We honestly don’t worry when we leave our boy in their care. It’s a holiday for him too. We receive regular updates of his progress. I know he’s cared for like he’s one of their own. He never looks back at drop off - and always a quick hello at collection! That’s a true sign of his contentment at Cranford. Can’t recommend enough.
So pleased to have found Michelle. Fantastic dog lady, very caring and knowledgeable. My Romanian rescue dog and old llhaso Apso had a wonderful trial break overnight and I am so happy. They were also loved and guided by Michelle's own two lovely dogs.
Couldn't have been happier with home to home care. My two cockapoos Angel and Rosie were so well looked after, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michelle.
Our Gemma loved being with Michelle she has her own little holidays and we don’t have to worry about her .
Very happy with the care provided and excellent feedback and updates throughout. Lovely to know the dogs are well looked after and cared for in a family home.
Caring and completely professional
Thank you it means a lot to be recognised for the care we give to your dog and love doing it.
Thank you Lisa your rating is much appreciated.
Jo provides a wonderful doggy daycare for our little cockerpoo. We were so worried about our puppy going somewhere when he was still young but Jo really cares and you can see how well looked after he is. Our dog has grown in confidence since attending and literally jumps with joy when he is collected for daycare and often tries to go back with Jo when dropped off! He always comes home tired from the stimulation and we can tell he has had a good day. Jo is very flexible and tries to help work around our rotas to provide care on the days needed. We are so pleased we found Jo!
Jo has looked after our dog Reggie for walks and daycare sessions regularly since last year. We know how much fun he has playing with other dogs in daycare and running around on group walks, he runs out the door with such excitement when she comes to collect him! Her being able to offer collecting and drop off is also really helpful particularly when we had been needing daycare or walks due to work commitments. Jo has always been friendly and professional and flexible with booking sessions. Highly recommend Poocheria, we feel lucky to have found her.
We started using poochrea a couple of months ago for our cocker spaniel puppy Sienna. She started at 4 months old which was a little scary, as she was so young but sienna has settled in so so well! Jo always puts us at ease by sending photos and updates each time she’s with her. You can see Jo really does care for Sienna like she’s her own. It’s such a relief to have found someone as amazing as Jo to care for our little girl. Sienna is always super excited when Jo picks her up and she then sleeps for the rest of the afternoon until we get home from work. Jo always replies to messages promptly and is willing to fit her in at short notice and swap days around which is great with work/holiday. Jo really is an amazing person and we wouldn’t want anyone else’s caring for Sienna. Have and will recommend to any pet parent in Wymondham. Thank you Jo Jess Ben
We first met Jo about 8 months ago when we wanted daycare for our first puppy. Melody got on really well with Jo and the other dogs right from day 1. Fast forward to today, she absolutely loves going to Jo, she waits for her at the door and really looks forward to her day filled with treats, walks, cuddles and play with Jo and her doggy friends! Couldn’t recommend Poocheria enough!
We have been Poocheria for doggy day care once a week since July Our house move got accelerated and we had to find somewhere with short notice and Jo was incredibly helpful in arranging to pop over and meet us to discuss ours and Maggies needs. She has been super flexible with changing dates here and there and always responsive to messages etc The best part is the convenience, we leave for work knowing Maggie will get collected and looked after and then dropped back before we arrive home. On top of that pricing feels extremely good value. Maggie always looks forward to seeing Jo (we can see how excited she is every week on the doorbell camera!) and is absolutely knackered when we get home! I would recommend Jo and Poocheria for all your pet care needs!
Jo takes great care of our dog. He goes on lovely adventures and is well socialised whilst in Jo's care. Jo is also flexible and considerate to our needs. We are so happy with the service we get. We would highly recommend her services - the peace of mind we have knowing our dog is in her care is worth a lot to us.
It’s so comforting when you find a dog walker you can trust with your best friend and we have found that with Poocheria. Jo is so accommodating and reliable we always receive a professional and quick reply when booking and it’s so reassuring to receive the odd photo and feedback. My dog Pip looks forward to her walks and is so happily exhausted when she comes back, which is the best testimony I can receive. Jo considers the right temperament for each of her pack walks which is great when you have a princess for a dog. I can’t recommend her highly enough we feel very lucky to have found her. 🫶🏻
Jo has been fantastic with our puppy Jenny who's been going to daycare now for about four months. Jen is a pointer mix with loads of energy. When there's lots going on around her she finds it difficult to settle and can be easily over stimulated/excitable. Jo and her daughter weren't phased by her puppy behaviour and have gone above and beyond to help Jen settle into daycare. Their experience with spaniels undoubtedly helps. They even reinforce the training that we're doing with her. I can't thank them enough for the care they provide. We couldn't do it without them!
Couldn’t recommend Jo enough! Her smaller dog walking groups have helped my pup build her confidence with other dogs, and Jo has always been on hand to help reinforce any training we’ve been doing! Jo genuinely cares about the animals she’s looking after and I always know my little pup is in safe hands and will have a fab time when she’s with Jo
I’ve seen firsthand how wonderful Jo is with all of the lovely animals she looks after. She understands their individual characters and they get affection, attention and they’re entertained the whole time. I’ve seen dogs who don’t want to walk begin to run and jump and express new found joy after a few days. Definitely worth taking your pooch to Poocheria.
Clearly don't want you to see where your dog will be boarded - requested to visit 3 times and ignored each time.
Nice phone call in answer and people seem nice, unfortunately we had found another place just before they got back to us. But would use if not.
Jazz loves her walks with Yvonne, shes reliable, punctual and always pays particular attention to jazz and alerts me if shes concerned about her health etc. I do always recommend the pet sitter where possible, its such a relief to know jazz is checked on daily.
My two dogs absolutely love when they know they are going to be walked by Peanut’s Pet Services! They are always on time, reliable and my dogs always feel in safe hands! Such affordable prices too. I have a peace of mind knowing my dogs are being looked after and cared for. Would recommend them to anyone!
