What a wonderful experience it was to have Bobbie-Jo, Troy and their sons stay in our home with Lucy. We had a chance to get to know them briefly and they were very organized and friendly. We appreciated their willingness to get us to and from the airport. Lucy loved all the hikes with this active family. Bobbie-Jo sent pictures and communicated with us several times throughout the week. We came home to a spotless house and a freshly baked fruit cobbler from Bobbie-Jo. Yum! We highly recommend this family for your next house sit!
Bonnie and Max were great. The cats were happy when we returned.

Vicky is a wonderful dog walker. From the moment I met her she was amazing with Bayley, gave him so much attention and listened to all his needs and took everything on board. Started walking him that same week and he was such a happy boy. He now sits every week waiting for Vicky to take him out! There is always pictures to see what he gets up to which is always lovely to see. He comes back clean every time and enjoys being able to socialise with the other furry friends he goes on the walks with. Couldn’t recommend enough!
Vicky has been an amazing find! She has done visits and walks with my two labradors for the last few months when I’ve had long work days. She is flexible and accommodating of my last minute requests and 100% an animal lover. Ludo and Shadow love their walks and visits from Vicky.
Victoria has started walking our 8 year old Labradoodle and 6 month old Cockapoo. They adore her and get some really great walks. Very reliable and flexible. Highly recommend!
We travelled from Shropshire with our very loved dog Barley as we didn't want her not to enjoy our holiday too, but knew there would be days not so dog friendly ie the safari. We'd never done this before where we had someone look after her whilst we were away with her, but Vicky squashed all our worries; Barley loved spending time at Muddy Paws. Vicky really helped us all enjoy our holidays and was flexible where she could be and can't recommend enough to anyone who wants a secure place that they can leave their fur baby. Thank you once again and will 100% be keeping your number stored for when we are down on holiday again 🥰
Vicky is a wonderful person and dog walker! Super accommodating, flexible and reliable. Her communication is spot on too. I really trust her to look after our dog and have no concerns leaving him in her care. Bertie comes back very happy, tired and well looked after!
Vicky has started walking my labrador. He seems to throughly enjoy his walks and I love getting little picture updates from Vicky to put my mind at ease that he is being properly looked after. Vicky has taken him on some lovely walks and he's always so happy when I come home after Vicky has visited him. Highly recommend Vicky!
Our dog Sonic had a amazing little holiday with Vicky!! We were nervous about leaving him however Vicky put our minds at rest and sent us daily updates, photos and videos 😍, amazing service from start to finish, highly recommend!! …
Vicky has been looking after Daisy since May. We liked her instantly and could tell that she liked animals. Daisy enjoys her visits and walks. Vicky has been very reliable and flexible when our needs have changed and responds quickly to our messages. I love seeing a photo of Daisy after Vicky’s visit: We are very happy to recommend Vicky to anyone needing their animal looked after.
Vicky is an absolute gem when it comes to pet sitting! She took care of my beloved Dolly with such warmth and attention that I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From regular walks to playtime and cuddles, Vicky ensured that Dolly felt right at home. What sets Vicky apart is her genuine love for animals, evident in the way she treated Dolly as if she were her own. Not only was she reliable and professional, but she also went above and beyond to accommodate Dolly's needs and quirks. I felt completely at ease knowing that Dolly was in Vicky's capable hands. I highly recommend Vicky to anyone in need of a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!
Very friendly and professional! I would highly recommend Vicky as our dog was very happy and comfortable with her 😊 …
I cannot recommend The Small Pet Inn highly enough. Gemma (and Josh) have looked after my giant continental rabbit a couple of times now and from the moment I met Gemma, I knew my bunny was in very safe hands. Her love for animals is so amazing to see, she treats her furry guests like her own and gives them so much attention and love, sending regular updates to reassure you they are fine. I feel truly blessed to have found The Small Pet Inn, and would not leave my bunny anywhere else. Thank you Gemma, Derek loves you xx
Gemma at The Small Pet Inn is absolutely amazing! We send our bunny to stay with her when we go away and even from the first drop off we haven't had to worry as we know our bunny is in good hands. The set up is brilliant as she offers indoor hutches for indoor bunnies and she spends time with your bunny so your bun has that interaction and isn’t just stuck in a hutch for the duration of its stay. Gemma is such an animal lover will treat your pet like it’s her own. So if you need a small pet sitter and want your pet to be in safe hands I would highly recommend The Small Pet Inn!
Amazing service! Never used a pet boarding before so was apprehensive when leaving my guinea pigs. I could not have asked for a better service from Gemma. Regular updates throughout their stay. You can tell they are well cared for alongside her own animals - they are treated as if they are her own! I cannot recommend The Small Pet Inn and Gemma highly enough! Will definitely use again when I go away!
We left our bunnies Stormy and Perry with Gemma for the weekend and they had a great time. She gave them excellent care and provided us with updates all thew way through. You can crearly see Gemma is very passionate and absolutely loves pets. Defeinetly recommended!
Gemma is so lovely and welcoming, and super passionate about small animal welfare. We sent our 2 bunnies to stay with her whilst we were away and they were so well looked after, and I even received regular photo updates so we were super reassured that all was well :) Will definitely be lodging with her again next holiday! Thanks so much again.
Rufus and Wilbur stayed with Gemma at the small pet inn in November and they told us they had the most wonderful time. She gave such excellent care to them, all the treats and nibbles they could ask for! We recommend the small pet inn without hesitation and the boys will visit there again next month!
I took my 4 Guinea pigs here for 9 days when I was on holiday. Dropped them off on a Sunday morning and alot of places do not allow Sunday drop offs so that was handy. Gemma was amazing so welcoming and I got regular updates and photos. I felt so comfortable them being there as I new they were in good hands. I have had some past bad experince with boarding but The Small pet Inn is amazing .They will certainly be going back when I have my next trip. I would reccomend to everyone !
I can't thank Gemma enough for looking after our bunny Oreo!! He was well looked after. Clean and well fed! Had lots of cuddles and plenty of outdoor play. I highly recommend (Gemma)the small pet inn,for your little companions⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Gemma is clearly devoted to all the animals in her care. The boarding hutches and runs are scrupulously clean and very well organised. Such a lovely place for our pets to stay.
I have boarded my guinaepigs at the Small Pet Inn. They were very well looked after. We got regular updates and videos of them while we were away which were so lovely to receive. I will definitely be boarding them here again.
Having recently moved to the area with a 5 month old GSP puppy, we knew finding the right care was going to be important for us & our pup. Jacqui & the team have been fabulous in accommodating our ever changing needs. They have been fabulous at taking things slowly with our pup, introducing her gradually to new places & new friends. They have been consistent with re-enforcing whatever training we have been working on & she is always happily shattered when she gets home. We couldn't be happier with Sallie & Tilly for her daycare play dates & Aliyah for fun walks. We are so grateful our pup is in kind & experienced hands with Jacqui & the team.
My dog is basically my child so I’m very fussy about leaving her with people. I am therefore so happy to have found We Love Pets. Jacqui has introduced me to some truly lovely people who have made my dog so happy and put my mind at ease. I have no qualms leaving her now as I know I can completely trust that she will be well looked after. Highly recommended - five stars plus!
Our whole experience with We Love Pets has been fantastic. The initial consultation in our home was so reassuring. Jacqui is so thorough, sensible and understanding. Then our first daycare session went so well, our dogs were so calm when I collected them and had really bonded with the person taking care of them. I feel I can really trust this company and will definitely be using them again, as I have total peace of mind about our dogs' wellbeing.
Having We Love Pets with Jacqui, Denise and the team in our lives is amazing and we couldn’t ask for better dog care. They have been incredibly caring and loving with our excitable dog Buster. He goes out and has the best adventures and comes home to a cozy, cuddly home, where we always know he’s looked after with the best care. Denise and Jacqui are both amazing and knowing your dog is going to safe and loving hands makes going away that much better. Can’t recommend We Love Pets Wantage enough!
Jacqui and the team at We Love Pets are so much more than dog walkers/sitters. I feel so reassured when I need to leave our dog, knowing they care as much as we do. It’s not just a job for them, they genuinely care & I can’t recommend them enough. Recently I had arranged for our Jack Russell to be walked and I was a bit worried as she hadn’t been herself that morning. I just emailed to let them know & Jacqui called me & arranged to spilt the walk and check on her twice so I could be reassured. Our dog was absolutely fine but it was so nice to know she was being kept an eye on.
Jacqui and the team have been absolutely amazing and I would happily recommend them to anyone. My dog is slightly nervous when meeting new people and it takes him a little time to build trust. They were gentle, kind and patient with him and now have a great bond. I've never used dog walkers in all my years of dog ownership (over 15 years) so it was a big thing for me to trust someone else with my dog, to take care of him and to not reinforce and negative behaviour. I only wish I could take these ladies with me to where I'm relocating! Special mention goes to India, who does most of the walks, I love and appreciate the little notes and I'm so grateful for your caring attitude towards my boy.
Jacqui, her team and family were the perfect minders for our little puppy Mia. She felt at home immediately and we knew instantly that she was in good, safe, caring, professional and trustworthy hands. Mia was so happy at the end of her first day. Jacqui is excellent at communicating and has all the skills needed to work with dogs. I would give Jacqui a highest recommendation.
We used We Love Pets Wantage for the first time recently. Having experienced the most awful pet sitter previously we were super cautious about booking another one. Needless to say we didn't need to worry. From start to finish the service was faultless. Jacqui put us at ease and carefully selected the most suitable person for us and Rosa worked out just perfectly. We had regular updates and photos sent and came back to very happy animals in great shape who'd obviously had a very enjoyable week. Our house had also been very well looked after too which was an added bonus. We will certainly use them again when we need pet sitters. Thank you Jacqui
Fantastic service. Thoughtful, caring dog walks tailored for each dog. Professionally run by consistent, flexible and transparent staff who genuinely care about our pets. Highly recommend this service, it’s the best I’ve ever used.
We contacted the Wantage branch of We Love Pets when we unexpectedly and suddenly needed care for a family dog, because his owner ended up in hospital. What a fantastic service they gave - finding a last-minute ‘holiday home’ for him, collecting him, taking him to a vet appointment, and generally welcoming him to the family. And Jacqui, who arranged all this, was so nice and helpful, and made things so easy in a stressful situation. And she kept us posted with photos to show how well he had settled in. We would highly recommend this company and, if future care is needed, would go back there immediately. A big ‘thank you’ to the We Love Pets team.
