Thanks for having us Zoe! Merry was a breeze to look after and was really fun to play with. Your apartment is super comfy and the surrounding area was great to explore. Would jump at the chance to sit again!
Nala and Simba were great to hang out with and the views of Broomfield and the flatirons from the house are really great. Definitely recommend.
What a great housesit this was! Two adorable working cockers which were clean,affectionate, well-trained ,responsive and cuddly and obviously the love of their owner’s life. Good to have had a park close by to walk Finegin and Buttons also. Barbara , a kind,warm woman made me so welcome with a delicious hot meal on my arrival. She made time to drive me into Cambridge to show me the city and to the local plant nursery. A comfortable warm home with everything you would need. Thank you Barbara.
What a wonderful time with Joanna's 3 gorgeous cocker spaniels. I was made really welcome and made a new friend in the area, introduced by Joanna, as well as being introduced to the National Trust cafe owner with warmth and welcome. I would definitely recommend this sit for the beautiful surroundings, peace and calm of the farmhouse and the luxury of hot baths and a woodbutning stove. Joanna was in contact regularly ensuring I was ok and her family close by did the same...a really positive experience.
This was a great sit in Cologne, Germany. The cats were great. Poppy was playful and affectionate. Peanut was happy by herself, but she came around to us occasionally. There are several grocery stores and metro stops within walking distance. Be sure to see the church downtown, you can't miss it. Communication with Judy was always fast and easy, and we even met up with them while we were in Bangkok a few months before our sit.
Had a wonderful time at Giada's place. Giada is an amazing host, warm, welcoming, funny and a great communicator! I loved spending time with both Perla and Kira who are very different but very entertaining in their own way! Perla is a Queen and she definitely rules the house and Kira is very playful - a big ball of fun! I will miss them both! Giada has a lovely apartment very close to everything, shops, train stations, shopping malls you name it. She lives in a beautiful and ideal location in Barcelona. Thank you so much Giada for choosing me to look after your beautiful babies. I feel very honoured and blessed!

Have used Mooches for Pooches for years and would highly recommend them. Very professional and caring team of ladies. Our two little ‘pups’ love their walks with the team. They are well looked after and a note is always left by whoever walks them letting us know how they have been whilst they have been out.
My family have been traveling for 7 months and our dear old dog stayed behind with my elderly parents. I needed to make sure he was given enough exercise and received plenty of mental stimulation so we hired Mooches for Pooches and the gorgeous dog walker Lottie took excellent care of him. I couldn’t be happier with the service and recommend them and Lottie highly. Thank you.
Mooches with Pooches were able to find me a dog walker at about 24 hours notice and the lovely Dawn came and took my dogs out. I felt immediately that she connected with my dogs and she sent a lovely photo of them in our local Meadows.
Fiona house sat our cat and her five kittens for a long weekend and we could not be happier. We had regular updates while we were away and it was obvious that she not only took great care of them but she enjoyed it too. Thank you again from the humans and felines 😻 …
Wonderful company, great communication. Helped me out when my dog care fell through last minute. 2 walks and over night. Lottie looked after my cat and dog beautifully and gave them lots of love and cuddles. House left clean and tidy. Would recommend! I will definitely use them again.
Caroline & The Mooches team have been fantastic with our energetic dog who loves visits from his regular Moocher. We have also used their services for our elderly cat when we go on holiday which has been great to know we don't need to worry while on holiday. Always reliable and love the 1 on 1 attention our dog gets.
Just wanted to pass on my thanks to Caroline and Dawn!! Communication has been outstanding, Caroline managed to fit us in at short notice, excellent service. I’m so grateful, it’s been a pleasure getting to know Dawn this week. Both dogs love her, such an amazing lady. Love the photos, updates and notes left on each visit. And walking our little french bulldog Boris in this treacherous weather today, what a star!!! Couldn’t ask for a better service, thank you so much!!! I highly recommend Mooches with Pooches!!!
We have been using Mooches with Pooches for nearly a year now and they have never let us down. They are always accomodating and friendly. Dawn is fantastic and so caring. Our pup adores her and we are so lucky to have her. We are so grateful to know our pup is in such good hands. Thank you Dawn & Caroline !
Caroline and her team offer a fantastic service: excellent communication, 100% reliable and they genuinely care about the dogs. They have come to the rescue at short notice on many occasions. My two dogs go wild with excitement when our lovely Mooches walker arrives!
Mooches with Pooches have been brilliant. Karen walks my dog Fergus every day and he adores her. He can be quite an anxious dog but whenever Karen turns up his whole body language changes and he comes home from his walks very excited and happy. I’m disabled so it’s a huge relief to me to have a reliable dog walker and Karen generates a lovely enthusiastic energy. Thank you!!
Jess has been incredible with socks (rescued German shepherd). He was nervous and challenging to walk but Jess took him on and he's improved hugely thanks to her hard work and patience. Before Jess, he would collapse at the sight of a lead and run into his bed. He now walks happily, with behavioural issues controlled and improving with every walk! Thankyou Jess!
Jess and Daria have been fantastic with our two springers. I have one very reactive dog that I know is in good hands. They are flexible and happy to help. My dogs love their walks!
Daria is absolutely fantastic with my little dog Bailey. She’s so caring, kind and completely reliable. Bailey has some health issues and Daria has been great; helping to put my mind at rest when I’m worried how he is, giving helpful suggestions that have really helped him; as he isn’t used to be being left. I’m so happy that I found Daria and Jess. Highly recommend.
Wow! A perfect mix of professionalism and a caring, personal approach. I cannot recommend Jess highly enough. She has been amazing with our kitten and it is obvious that she cares enormously about the animals in her care. She is approachable and friendly and a pleasure to work with.
Took my GSD on many walks, very kind and professional
Brilliant service..Thank you girls !
Fair priced understandingnof individual needs
