Sadly due to a variety of difficulties I had to cancel this sit at relatively short notice, but I did want to leave feedback as Colleen and Marko were fantastic. They have been super understanding and flexible and I really hope that we will be able to rearrange the sit for very soon. The most striking thing about these guys is how they have kept in touch even after the sit was cancelled, I’d had some difficult personal news and Colleen and Marko have dropped me several messages just to say hello and ask how I was, they are thoroughly lovely kind and caring people. Although we have not yet met I am really looking forward to seeing them and am really excited to be able to go away in the near future and leave my home and my precious little gang of kitty cats in their very kind and capable hands!! Thank you guys, you have been and continue to be absolutely amazing!
Meeko is fantastic. Cooper is happy, our house is perfect and communication is effective and fun.

Carol is amazing. I know my girls are super safe & super spoilt when they stay with her. They have just had the best 10 days holiday and already have the next 3 booked!! 🤩🐕🐕 …
Carol is a lovely person and looked after our dog with great affection. She kept us up to date with photos and messages. Our dog was taken for long walks and enjoyed the company of other dogs. Would not hesitate to book again and cannot recommend Carol more highly.
Carol is great at looking after our dog when we are away. We know that she is so well looked after and loved when she is there. Carol is also really good at communicating which is super helpful. We are very appreciative of all you do.
Carol has been looking after our animals for two weeks, our family comprises of 6 dogs, 3 cats ,fantailed doves and marine fish. 4 of our dogs are on regular medication and special diets plus one cat with IBS who needs daily medication. Carol was caring ,professional and very well organised. We came home to happy and healthy animals. We would highly recommend Carol . We also received videos and updates of our animals. Enabling peace of mind while we were away. Peter and Judy Lusted St Ives Cornwall
An excellent service that is good value for money. Carol is professional and your pet's welfare is her priority. I have a dog with a medical condition and Carol went the extra mile to learn how to deal with his condition. She is a cheerful and confident dog sitter who put my dog at ease. I was happy to leave him with her without having to worry about him. Communication was prompt and easy. Carol turned up ahead of our appointment to ensure that everything was in order. I have no hesitation in using her services again.
Carol’s pet and home sitting service recently looked after our springer spaniel and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough. Our dog stayed with Carol and Steve for over a week and was very happy. Carol kept in regular contact and updated us on what our dog was up to. All queries were answered promptly and thoroughly which kept us very reassured. When returning to pick our dog up - she was very happy and comfortable in Carol’s company’s and had clearly had a lovely time there. We would definitely use Carol’s pet and home sitting service again
We found Carole’s pet sitting service on line. From the first point of contact we knew that our dogs would be in great hands. Carole is very professional and loves the pets like they’re her own. It gave us an opportunity to enjoy an evening at The Minack theatre and another evening at a lovely restaurant. The dogs were very relaxed and exceptionally comfortable on the sofas when we arrived back to pick them up. In fact they didn’t want to leave! Carole gives them lots of attention and stimulation whilst in her care, she has so many toys for them. The garden is wonderful and totally secure. We look forward to seeing you again soon Carole! Ava, Bo and Betty! And Annie and Ash x
Carol has been very professional and understanding expectations I have for my dogs care. I’ve done my research locally, and found Carol’s home and pet sitting services to be just what every dog lovers looking for. My dog, Lady, has made a fantastic bond already with Carol, so much so that we are going to continue to use Carols services to create Lady a ‘home away from home’. We are very happy customers!
Carol was very accommodating and great with our black lab Milly who stayed for 5 nights. She kept us updated with pictures throughout, mostly of Milly having fun playing in the garden and on the beach. Milly can be a bit of a handful but Carol managed to keep her entertained and she must have had a great time, as she didn’t seem to want to leave! We will certainly use Carol again when we come back to Cornwall
Carol was taking care of our beloved lab Jessie for few days so we can explore Cornwall while most beaches are not allowing dogs during the day. Best care you can possibly ask for. Carol is friendly, caring and have a great personality. Garden for dog, gazebo to make shade and paddling poor and... lots of toys. Absolutely fantastic! Highly recommended 👌
Louisa and Ric regularly take our dog out both for walks and for boarding when we our both away with work. Floss always looks forward to her walks and loves getting out with the other dogs. She always waits at the door when she hears the van pull up. Would definitely recommend.
We found Louisa at the last minute before going on our two week holiday and we are so glad we did. Louisa is a lovely lady who along with her partner look after the dogs in their care in a very professional way. Our dog was so happy and relaxed. We were worried about going and leaving her for the first time. We were updated with photos every day which made us happy. She was given so much TLC and when it was time to bring her home we felt a bit sad that they would miss her. We will certainly be taking our dog back for the odd weekend and have already booked our dog in for next year. Thank you Louisa.
What an amazing business Louisa is running. She’s so amazing with the dogs and is cautious and careful when out and about. The boarding she offers is nothing like a kennel, just like your dog going a spending time with another loving family when you’re away. She will send plenty of updates if that’s what you like too. 11/10.
Thankyou Louisa for looking after Zeus & Eris for the week it’s obvious they have had the best stay as all they’ve done since we picked them up is sleep! 😂 this is the 2nd time our doggy’s have been to stay & I would definitely recommend Waggin Good Times for anyone looking for dog walking/boarding ☺️ Louisa kept us updated during our week away and sent photos of them out on their walks which kept us reassured that they were happy & well looked after ☺️ Thankyou again!
Louisa is basically Boogies 2nd Mum! She's brilliant, takes time to get to know each dog individually and always puts the dogs first. Boogie loves her days at Waggin' Good Times, she has regular doggy day care and has also done overnight boarding when I've had to go away for work. I know Boogie is in safe hands with Louisa and I don't have to worry, she also has a great time on walks (and lots of cuddles and tummy tickles in between) which is obvious from the pictures and videos I get sent. Louisa washes down the dogs after walks which I really appreciate given the alabama rot that's about. She really does care and it's the best doggy daycare I've used. I especially like the fact Boogie is looked after in a home environment with a small number of dogs, rather than left to run around wild all day with hundreds of other dogs which is the way some day care's operate. I won't go anywhere else now and Boogie is always excited when we arrive at Louisa's!
My three year old Labrador is in Louisa’s care three day’s a week and she absolutely loves it! Louisa is very accommodating and professional and it’s very clear that she loves her job. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Very kind and professional, family run business. Thanks again for looking after Twix!
Misch loves this day care service. He's made friends
Very friendly and caring. Highly recommend.
Always perfect 💕🐾😀 …
Jo and her husband Mike are very professional and clearly love what they do. All my three love her and say by the door as she went wanting to go out with her. Would highly recommend.
I want to say a massive thank u to jo & mike at Helston Happy Hounds for always being such wonderful people, dog sitting for barney and noodles, taking them on ur walks and adventures, u have helped noodles become more relaxed and not so nervous, and giving barney wonderful days in his older yrs. If anyone is looking for a home from home doggie daycare, or board Helston Happy Hounds will care for ur dogs as their own highly skilled and recommended.
Jo and Mike took very good care of our dog, Cara who stayed with them for 24 hours of overnight boarding while we went to a wedding in Helston. We got frequent updates and photos of our dog out on walks and playing with the other dogs. The process to register was straightforward and reassuringly thorough. Professional, friendly and responsive, I’d recommend Helston Happy Hounds wholeheartedly.
HHH took our two pomchi pups (Pomeranian x chihuahua) as a last minute 4 night boarding booking, and we couldn't have been luckier. One of our boys is really quite nervous, but when we got him back you could see the change in his confidence! Both dogs came back extremely happy, well exercised and beautifully looked after. We got regular photos, so we knew they were having a fab time. When discussing future boarding dates with my partner we referred to it as "when are they visiting their Aunty Jo again?" I think that demonstrates everything we feel.
Our boys were in safe hands. We booked at very short notice and for the very first time on a recommendation. We were so relieved to see photos of our happy dogs running along a deserted beach. We have no hesitation in recommending.
Helston happy hounds is a great home from home boarding. Cocoa really came out of her shell and enjoyed all the doggie walks. Jo keeps you in touch with them through photos and updates so you know they are safe and well cared for whilst you are away. Now planning another short stay!
We have left our dogs with Helston Happy Hounds several times over the years . They offer a caring , home environment in which my dogs have been comfortable, safe and happy. With overseas relatives we often need to travel for several weeks at a time and Helston Happy Hounds has given them a second home during those times which has been a massive relief.
My dog had a weekend stay with Jo at Helston Happy Hounds while I was out of county for a wedding. Jo kept me updated with photos of their adventures. My dog was well looked after and had a great stay!
Scampi & Meadow had a great home-from-home weekend away at Helston Happy Hounds. It was a huge relief to know they were safe, happy & well-cared for. Jo is responsive, organised and capable, I would recommend her!
I sent my boys my two boys to Jo for 5 days when we went away and couldn’t take them with us. It was a real relief to know they would be treated like family and well taken care of. They had a wonderful time and were very happy. Jo sent regular updates and photos so we could see them enjoying themselves. I highly recommend Helston Happy Hounds.
Really friendly staff. Very knowledgeable on all their raw food products. Went above and beyond to our dogs the right food for our holiday stay. Enjoyed the paddock to run the dogs in
Stopped by as we are transitioning our French bulldog onto raw food and thought they would have some good treats. The staff are incredibly well versed in dogs, dog health, diets etc. They were so patient despite us asking a multitude of queries. Can’t recommend this place enough for dog owners.
Never have Natures Instinct in when I go so you have to buy the more expensive raw food. Three times they have no stock. They need to get their orders up to date to match consumption
My Mojo loves it here. He's a 4 yr old English Working Cocker Spaniel I've had since 8wks of age and my 3rd furby. He used to be a bit nervous around other dogs & had terrible separation anxiety and it was a new experience as an experienced dog owner as my first two were always happy around others and to be left home alone and with other people. I was at the point of thinking I would never be able to leave Mojo with anyone. But I decided to try him in a doggy daycare and it's the best thing I ever did. He loves it. He goes every Saturday 10am to 5pm and after the first two trips he doesn't even look back when the girls come to take him to the play area and he actually pulls me up the ramp when we arrive. He is starting to get better there as they did tell me that he would get panicky and spin and yowl and bark when a dog was being taken out for collection to go home and he is quite taken with one particular staff member there and any time she left an area he was in he would yowl and react. But he's barely doing that any more. But apparently when it's close to 5 he is so used to the routine now he starts to sit by the gate as he knows it's home time and he wants his mum which is so cute. They're fab with him and even at home I notice a difference. He's much calmer and more relaxed in himself and out on walks he doesn't react to other dogs coming up to him for a sniff and a tail wag and actually goes up to others first. Our nextdoor neighbour has a dog who reacts to him when he's out in the garden and barks at him and growls and lunges through the fence and he used to react in the same way but now he completely ignores her. She's a lovely dog and when they're out front and off lead they're fine together but put a hedge or a fence between them and she is different. Territorial doggos 😂 I can't recommend enough and a bonus is that not only do they have a fab Doggy Daycare but they also have their own Pet Food Shop - Natural Cornish Pet Foods which specialises in Raw Feeding and my lad has been on a raw diet since he was a year old. I wish I knew about raw feeding with my first two babies as it is soooo much better than ghastly dry feed and those totally gross tins of dog food. He is a very healthy happy boy has no skin problems, no allergies, beautiful teeth and coat and best thing (albeit gross to mention) his poo is solid and like little nuggets as his body is getting every bit of nutrient from his diet and literally only the tiniest amount of waste which is how it should be and because he gets a lot of hydration from his diet he doesn't guzzle water back to the point he's bloated. So picking up after him is a doddle. If I could give 100 stars I would this place is fab. My only slight negative is they need to start taking pics of the dogs on Saturdays too. Not fair that us weekend dog owners don't get any.
Really lovely place today! My dogs are amazingly friendly and well behaved but sometimes they just don't listen to me and can make me quite anxious.. Having this on my door step is amazing! The dogs were free to roam, chase the ball, and I was able to fully relax with them and actually they were both on their best behaviour 😍 Henry who showed me around was informative, friendly, and just generally helpful! Thank you for a great half an hour... The dogs are now sleeping and I'm able to get on with some work at home!! We will be back...
Brilliant idea. Lovely place, well organised, easy to book on web site. Really good doggy shop with every unimaginable food, treats and accessories. Highly recommended
This is one of Jax favourite places to have a day to run and play with his mates and get one to one socialised wiv humans.. him being a rescue and not been socialised wiv humans he has come on leaps and bounds x thank u guys so much x
My boy loves Doggy Day Care and thrives from it. The team are amazing and I cannot speak highly enough of them.
It is so comforting to know that Tucker is in a safe and secure environment when I have to leave him - and he's so happy to be left there too, thanks to Jordan and his staff's fantastic care.
We've used the secure field a few times now and our dog loves it! Lots of space to run around without worrying about escaping. There's also bench to sit on. Would definitely recommend. Nice shop as well with lots of good treats and food. Friendly staff.
Michelle was extremely helpful in organising dates for dog care. Great communication and very fair pricing. I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you!
Heidi has been walking with Liv since she was 15 weeks old! She goes wild with excitement every time Liv comes to collect her and can’t wait to get out the door! And for us, Muddy Paws have been so excellent. They are really, flexible if we need extra days, have never missed a walk and have looked after Heidi when we are away. We think they are the absolute best!
We have been very happy with Liv from Muddy Paws Cornwall. We immediately felt at ease at our taster session and during her first one week stay. Liv sent us photos and videos and kept us updated. She even hired an enclosed field so our pup could have a run off lead! We are very happy we have found Liv and can now go on holiday knowing our pup is well loved and taken care of!
Can’t believe it has taken me this long to write a review as we have been using Muddy Paws for a year and a half, both for occasional boarding and weekly dog walks. Our pup Merlin absolutely adores his dog walker Emma and he has a brilliant time running around with his pack. Emma is very trustworthy, communicative, and kind. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Merlin. If you are thinking of using Muddy Paws do not hesitate!
used Muddypaws for the first time for our labrador puppy Archie for a 10 day stay with Luca and her partner they are very caring in all aspects of the welfare and health off your pet keeping us up to date with daily videos of Archie stay, you could see from all the videos that Archie was so happy staying with Luca and settled in so well. Luca is very professional and passionate about all aspects of the pets wellbeing you couldn't ask more of them as such Archie is going back for another stay 14th to 15th December. I would highly recommend using Muddypaws and Luca for all your pets needs if there were 10 stars i would give them 10 out of 10. Thank you Luca for making Archie stay so exciting he loved every minute of his stay and looking forward to staying again.
Our Luna stayed with Harriot for the afternoon whilst we were on holiday in Cornwall, so we could see a show at the Minack theatre. From start to finish she made it easy. Very communicative and when we arrived Luna hit it off instantly with her. When it came to pickup Luna had clearly had a fantastic time as she wanted to go back in. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Luna can be a handful as she is a very intense puppy so needs lots and lots of stimulation, and that was exactly what see she got. There is no hesitation in giving them 5 stars.
Sam is wonderful. Takes such wonderful care of our gorgeous pup. She is always so helpful with advice and is always so accomodating. I can rest easy knowing she's safe and well loved when she's with Sam. Finding someone you trust to look after your dog is very hard but Muddy paws have been great and I would highly recommend.
Tanya looked after our 2 year old Cocker Spaniel Luka while we were on holiday in Cornwall. He was treated to a real home from home experience - fun walks with doggy friends, lots of play and cuddles! Communication with Muddy Paws and Tanya was brilliant. Highly recommend! Thank you!
They are amazing. Our dog Gylly can't wait for Liv from Muddy Paws to come and collect him for an exciting afternoon with her and his 'pack'. We then get to laugh at the videos she posts of Gylly and his friends on their adventures. The Muddy Paws team love what they do and the dogs in turn love their time with them. If Gylly was writing this review he would give 10 bones our of 10.
Bringing liv and the pack walks into our puppies life is the best decision we've ever made. Our pup has completely changed behaviour wise when out on walks thanks to learning from and being with liv and the pack. She waits by the door excited for these walks every day. They go to the best places and are looked after so well. Couldn't recommend more.
Shane has been fantastic and so gentle with our cockapoo who needed more socialisation with other dogs. She loves seeing him and he has been amazing at understanding when she may need to be on lead or when she may be nervous etc, so we know that she is in brilliant hands with him on their walks. He is flexible, reliable and communicates brilliantly. He also makes sure to let us know how ecah walk went and how she was, which is great for us to see how her progress is each week. He has helped with her socialisation heavily by ensuring she only goes on group walks with other types of similar dogs to ease her nervousness. We highly recommend him and we're very glad that we found a credible, sensible, caring and very knowledgable individual who obviously adores dogs from all walks of life! 😊
Shane and his team have been amazing helping out with dogs walks for our two while we work long days, its really nice to know they are in good hands. I love seeing the photos he sends us of them out having a good time. He has been really reliable and out in all weather with them, I can recommend Cornwall pet services highly.
The first time we met Shane at Cornwall Pet Services was in February 2019. Ruby our beautiful thirteen year old spaniel fell in love with her new uncle Shane at first sight. Nowadays Shane comes to our house whilst we are at work most days and lets roo into the garden for a wander. He spends time with her and loves her like she was his own dog. We are so lucky to have found Shane and are so grateful that we can rely on him to help look after our beloved friend.
Shane is excellent with our dog, she loves him and her ‘friends’ and having walks with Cornwall Pet Services has made her happy and sociable with other dogs of all shapes and sizes! I can’t recommend this service highly enough.
Shane has fed our cat on several occasions now and I cannot rate him highly enough. He will tailor his service to suit your individual requirements and even send updates on your pet whilst you are aware for peace of mind.
We have used Shanes letting out services over the past 18 months, he is very helpful, nothing is too much trouble and he will fit in with your requirements...…...and your dogs! I highly recommend him and his services, second to none!
Benji enjoys his play time with the other dogs in the group, very good for keeping your dogs socialised. Shane is reliable and flexible, couldn't recommend enough.
Shane is a lovely guy, very kind and understanding of my slightly nervous pooch when she first went out with him. Now she's all waggy tail and quite happy to go off for her zoomies.
Lovely friendly and professional service. Genuinely cares about and loves our dogs! They are always happy and tired after a good run, well looked after and safely returned home.
We take Luna to the daycare twice a week and we also use Tracey for home boarding when we need. Luna is soooo happy there and so looked after by Tracey and the rest of the staff. I can’t recommend it enough! Thank you!
Ive been several times o know it's safe as I gave a dog that likes to get out of anywhere great place well recommended
I have recently bought a 4 month old puppy and knew that 5 days after getting him, my partner and I would be going on a 2 night stay away. I was so anxious about leaving him this soon, especially when I didn’t know how he would be with other dogs etc… but from the very beginning Tracey made me feel at ease. I was crying when I left him but had nothing but smiles when I got regular updates including photos and videos. He was treated like any other member of the family and that meant so much at such an early stage. I’m glad I chose to socialise him and throw him in at the deep end and could not have wished for a better place to have him experience that! Currently writing a list of all dates he can go for another doggy holiday when we have things booked. Could not recommend enough. <3
Our pup Toby has been going here for about a year. Tracey has a natural affinity with dogs, and Toby adores her. All the dogs are treated as if they were her own dogs, and she makes them so welcome in her home. The place is on a farm and there is a safe, enclosed garden where the dogs can run, and also a secure field where she takes the dogs for longer runs and play. I always know that Toby is going to be safe and cared for here, and he always has so much fun. He comes home very tired and very content. At £15 for a whole day you will not find better value for money. We wouldn't take Toby anywhere else, it's fantastic.
Tracey’s home is a home from home for our pug and she has been going there since she was a baby and loves it!! She’s well looked after, tracey is professional, reliable and flexible and our pugs time there has helped her to become an amazingly sociable and friendly dog! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.
Bracken our old labrador has stayed twice with Tracey, whilst we've been away on holiday. I can honestly say that we wouldn't leave him with anyone else now. They are taken in as part of the family, staying in the kitchen of their family home and have plenty of space to run around, in the garden and the field. Tracey always texts us, to let us know that he is ok. He always comes back, very happy and well cared for.
Tracey is lovely and so is her family. Use Tracey alot for my dog woody for home boarding. Woody loves going there. He has a great time and very well looked after. Home from home. Wouldn't take him anywhere else. I use Tracey alot when I go away for weekends. Your dogs will love it.
Absolutely amazing. Tracey looked after them so well.Will definitely be booking with her again ,they were so happy running in the field.Would definitely recommend her
Nice secure space large enough for a good run around. There is also fresh water, somewhere to sit when dry, and a shelter for when the weather isn't quite so good! Nice gravel area to park, a bin for poo bags, and a sanitizer dispenser. All in all a good safe space, also have boarding kennels for a longer stay
Tracey looked after Milo our sprocker puppy for his weekend away. She was amazing at keeping us up to date with how he was doing, sending videos etc. Milo loved the open space. Highly recommend
Safe and fun place for our puppy to play and make friends. Owner and staff are very caring. The facilities are fantastic, they even have a splash pool for the summer! Definitely recommend.
Andy and Tara really look after my dog here. She loves the ball pool and the new trampoline.
The staff were friendly and helpful
Kat is great with my dogs individual needs. She positively reinforces great behaviour, is patient, sensible and most importantly spoils my dog rotten. I would not have anyone else walking my dog for me!
Kat doesn't just walk your dogs; she brings out all the fun in them, ensuring every journey out is bursting with adventure! Her genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction, and it's clear she truly understands what makes dogs happy. Whether it's a romp through the park, a game of fetch, or just exploring new trails, Kat tailors each walk to suit your dogs energy and personality. She’s incredibly reliable, communicative, and goes the extra mile. If you want someone who treats your dog like their own and turns every walk into a joyful experience, Kat is the one. Highly recommended! 🌟🐾
Very professional, looked after our two dogs for a long weekend. 1st time they have been left before, and I think they enjoyed it. Excellent pics and videos sent to us, throughout the weekend so we didn't miss them to much. Thank you.
Professional and friendly service, Mandy and the team really do care about your dogs.
I have every confidence in Mandy. My dogs love her
Amazing service, great customer and dog care
They make a week in advance appointments, then leave voice messages stating cancelled . . very unethical !
Thanks Brenda!
Can't recommend Elle enough! 😍 …
