Dog Sitters in South Gloucestershire

Our 4 year old female black lab boarded for a week with Meryl at The Pet's Friend. She was very much at ease with Meryl and had a great time meeting the other dogs and going for walks with her new pals. Meryl is very kind, friendly and attentive to your dog's needs, and kept us updated with photos and messages. Our girl would have been quite happy to stay another week! I felt very much at ease leaving her with Meryl and I wouldn't hesitate to leave her in the care of The Pet's Friend again. Highly recommended. Thanks Meryl.

Meryl had my dog for me for a week when I went on holiday and he had a lush time! I was kept updated with pictures daily and was reassured that he was nice and settled. When I came home he greeted me when I went to collect him and then proceeded to walk back into Meryl’s house and sit behind her as he didn’t want to leave!! Meryl is very calm and you can tell that she has a lot of affection for the animals she cares for, I am so glad I’ve found her service and I will absolutely love to use her again in the future!! 🩷

Meryl is very patient with our cat, Coconut. Coconut's very needy (loves getting affection) and doesn't like being by herself. Meryl comes over to our house twice a day to check up on her and gives her food, affection, a bit of play, etc. Our cat seems happier when I leave her in Meryl's care than when I put her up in a cattery where she's locked away in a small area and where there are several other cats that are looked after by just 1-2 cattery staff. I'd highly recommend Meryl to anyone who's looking for a patient and caring cat sitter. She sends us photos every time she comes over to keep us updated on Coconut which is a really nice gesture for us.

Meryl takes great care of our dog. She has a genuine love of dogs and we feel very reassured when he is with her for walks or longer stays. Meryl has looked after our cat and guinea pigs too which is a great help.

I have used Meryl the pets friend since she was recommended by a friend who sends her dog to Meryl. I use Meryl for short and long stays and my 2 year old border collie loves going there. While she's with Meryl I get regular updates and photos of my dog including playing with other dogs in Meryl's care. The pets friend combines the warmth, comfort and relationship of domestic care with professional skills. I recommend Meryl the pets friend unreservedly Helen, Frenchay

Our dog, Harvey gets so excited when he sees Meryl. He loves his daily walks with her and enjoys his holidays with Meryl when we go away. Meryl is so accommodating and will always try to arrange her commitments to fit in with our needs. I would definitely recommend The Pets Friend for walks or overnight stays

Home from home for our dog. We've used The Pet's Friend 4 times now for holiday stays and he loves it there. Daily update photos are sent through and Meryl is fabulous with him. He loves the company of his fellow boarders too. Highly recommended

Meryl makes it easy to leave your dog with her knowing it will be safe and looked after. We have used her for a number of years and Cookie gets excited as we get nearer to her ‘holiday home’. Love the photo updates. Thank you for making it easy for us to go away.

Charlie has loved staying with Meryl and meeting new fur-friends. I love seeing photos of him chilling with new friends. He’s happy and settled in Meryl’s care. Thanks Meryl ⭐️

Our dog loves a stay with Meryl. Great to go away knowing she's happy and well looked after.

Vicky and Rob have been pet sitting for us for many years now and it's a great feeling going away on holiday knowing our fur babies will be well looked after. Martin was also wonderful walking our dog. Great service from people who really care about animals

We've had Vicky and Rob walk and look after our spaniels for over 11 years. They're wonderful and care so much about the dogs. Highly reliable and fully recommend. Our dogs love their walks and love Vicky and Rob too!

Would definitely recommend them, very trustworthy and caring. Have used them for years to walk our Cocker Spaniel.

It's the third year we've had Martin looking after our 3 cats while we are away. It's been such a relief knowing they are in safe hands and well taken care of. He is very friendly and sends updates everytime he visits so we don't have to worry. It is so much better for out cats as well as they don't have to go through the trauma of being relocated while we are away and they always seem very happy in the pictures we are sent of them.

Pet Sitters have recently cared for our two cats for 7 days and the service was fantastic. Our cats are very young and this was the first time we had left them for such a long period. Martin who cared for our cats clearly understands how all animals have different personalities and really listened to our details of their different behaviours. I would highly recommend this service. Martin visited twice a day to check on our cats, feed them and provided some companionship.

My border collie Sam has been walking with Yate pet sitters for 2 years. He loves both his walkers and I go to work knowing he will have a great energetic hour. They have never let me down and I would highly recommend them.

Jane is fab with our pup Flo. They both adore each other. Jane has always been good at sending me texts and pictures keeping me updated. We trust Jane in our home and are happy to have her at our house.

It doesn't matter which member of the team you get at Yate Pet Sitters they all have the same ethos. To treat you and your pet as if you were family. Every one of them goes above and beyond when looking after your pet.

Excellent care aleays given to my 2 dogs both walking and sleepovers! Home from home. Vicky treated them so well they never wanted to come home!

Great pet sitters they always do a great job

Paula and her team have been walking our dog and providing visits to our cat when we go away for over 5 years now. They really are the best around. They have taken the time to get to know our dog, understanding her body language, matching her with other dogs perfectly for walks. They are reliable and communicate regularly. I would highly recommend if you are looking for someone who you'll trust 100%!

Retro & Friends is the only place we'll take our old Jack Russell. We have used them for 5 years and I'm sure our dog prefers being there than at our house! It's a home away from home. Paula is trustworthy, hard-working and well-liked, which shows in how busy they are and their waiting lists. Other dog walking/boarding businesses come and go as people think it's an easy job. Retro & Friends will outlast them all for their professionalism, safety and kindness. They have a waiting list for a reason, so don't settle for a chancer who has lots of availability - there is a reason for that too!

Really grateful to Paula for being incredibly flexible and friendly, offering pet visits for my two dogs at late notice during a difficult time. My dogs love her and my younger dog is a big Retro fan! Highly recommend for your dog sitting / dog walker needs in Chipping Sodbury area.

An amazing place to leave your furry friend.. care and knowledge and time spent over and above what they need to do ..

Fantastic place to leave your dog, either for day care or holiday, it's home from home for the dogs!

Friendly, professional and mad about dogs!

Thank you so much for the 5 star review. We do love a happy client!

Thank you so much for leaving us a 5 star review. It really does mean alot x

Thank for your kind review. It means so much to us!x

As usual Enzo came back healthy and happy..and Mike's amazing collection and return service takes such a strain off of getting to the airport etc...Will be booking again soon...

We highly recommend Rock House Boarding Kennels. Our dog, Benny, has been staying there during our holidays for the past 4 years. There have never been any issues and he seems happy to be looked after by Mike.

Picked happy dog up after our holidays. She was a rescue dog originally and not used to kennels but was relatively well behaved during her stay and has come back very fit, well and happy. Clearly the owners have a great understanding of dogs and would recommend using them.

I left Dora, my highly reactive Border Collie, in Mikes care. I was extremely nervous knowing her behavioural issues. Mike called me later in the afternoon to assure me that she had settled in fine and that he had gradually introduced her to the other dogs and she had been out with them without any problems!! I would certainly recommend this establishment. Thank you Mike. I had a great relaxing holiday.

Picked up our 2 yesterday after 10 days and they were clearly very well looked after. Both seemed happy and didn't smell which is a bonus! The owners are lovely people and listen to any concerns, also love the fact that the dogs are allowed to socialise together.

Thank you for taking care of Willow for us. It's great she had the opportunity to socialise with other dogs up to 5 times a day when she wanted to. It's reassuring to know she has a safe place to stay when we are away.

Great place and Mike really gets to know the dogs and you can tell he has their best interests at heart. Second time Molly has been there and was in great shape and happy when we picked her up. Already have booked her in for our next holiday. Thank you Mike

Mike is so nice. He knows all the dogs by name and he treats them all as individuals. The kennels are very clean. The dogs have plenty of space to run. Have used for years and my dogs always come home happy.

Bobby loved his recent stay at Rock House and enjoys playing with other dogs. Would thoroughly recommend. Will be looking him in for next year most definitely.

A great place to leave you dogs whilst away The owner and his team really welcome your dogs and continues to care for them when there in his place Nice place to exersize and good size sleeping areas.. Our ridgbacks Lucy max and flo. always enjoy staying there.

I would like to say how pleased I am with Pippa's Patch dog walking service. Biscuit loves her walks and is much calmer and happier when we get home from work. Becky (Biscuit, Bichon Frise)

Rosemarie and Guy have gone above and beyond to look after our elderly cat while we've been away. She became poorly the day we left for holiday, and they kept a close eye on her, kept in touch and took her to the vet, then the hospital. We came home but, once she had been given the all clear from the vet, we were able to continue our holiday, knowing she was in very safe and caring hands. I can highly recommend Rosie Posie Pet Services!

I wanted to share my experience as I wouldn't like any other pet owners to go through thus but I appreciate everyone's experience is different. I asked them to look after my cat for a few days over Easter. I was asked to fill out a form which she clearly didn't check as she got the dates wrong. No communication on the first day I expected her to visit my cat which caused me a lot of anxiety. For the visits they spent 4 minutes (not exaggerated, exactly 4 minutes) for each visit. My cat is very playful and when I got home she was dying for attention. Communication was very poor I addressed this issues with them by email expecting at least an apology and no response as of yet, 3 weeks later. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Rosie Posie are brilliant! We’ve used them for many years for regular lunchtime dog walks with our labradoodle. Guy has great patience - our doodle gets very excited to see him and isn’t the calmest pooch! Really reliable, caring and just generally really lovely people who have shown extra care and support for our family when we’ve needed it. Thank you.

We sadly had exactly the same experience as the review below. Visits lasted between 2 and 4 minutes (thanks Ring doorbell) and all of the forms we filled in with instructions weren’t followed. Picked this up via email after our holiday and have never had a response. Very sad when it’s the first time we’ve left our cats with someone else.

Have used rosieposie pets a number of times now with different cats we have been fostering. They have been so amazing each time; very quick with communication, happy to administer medications and have a play and cuddle with all our different animals after their feed. Would highly recommend!

Great service. Allowed us to travel internationally without worry the dogs, tortoise and chickens would be well looked after. With Rosie Posie Pet’s there’s no need to fret... about your pet.

My pets love being looked after by Rosie and im so pleased when I come back to see my pets relaxed and happy,great value and service. I'm a repeat customer.

Had Rosie look after my cats for the 1st time fabulous service two happy cats well looked after excellent service and will definitely be using Rosie again 😁

Have used Rosie Posie several times now to take care of our duckies and fish and all seem very happy 🐠🐠🐠🦆🦆🦆 …

Looked after my nervous anti social psycho cat! Really lovely lady,would recommend

Highly recommend Caroline. Our cockapoo Milo goes once a week and is always really happy to go in. Caroline has also had him for a odd weekend, which has been fantastic.

Our toy poodle Arlo has stayed with Caroline several times now when we go on holiday. He is always very happy to see her and very settled when we return to pick him up. It is so reassuring to us to know that he is happy when we are away and is being so well looked after. Thank you Caroline!

would totally recommend Caroline to anyone looking for Home Boarding. Maisy my 18 month old Cavapoo is very nervous with people and doesn't go to anyone. I was worried she wouldn't be able to stay with anyone else. I needn't have worried Caroline was amazing and so patient and good with her and she was fine and really enjoyed her stay. She has now stayed twice and is now her best friend and follows her everywhere and sits on her lap. I can go away knowing that she is very happy there and well looked after.

We have been taking our 12month old dog to Happy Home Dog Boarding Bristol since the end of last year. She loves it and can’t wait to arrive dragging me to the front door in the mornings! Caroline had been brilliant, the dogs clearly love her and she has been so flexible helping us out at short notice on several occasions.

Have used Happy Home 3 times now, all at very short notice due to work commitments. Caroline made the process really easy and welcomed Wally wth open arms. Each time when I returned he has been calm and healthy, not the neurotic hyper Ive been left for months reaction you get when using a kennels. Definitely my go-to home for Wally when I need somewhere for him to stay. Excellent.

My lively springer spaniel has been going to Happy Home Dog Boarding for over three years now. Regularly twice a week and multiple stay overs whilst I go on holiday. My dog can't wait to get inside, tail wagging and absolutely loves it. Caroline is so accommodating to my ever changing schedule. Highly recommend.

My chocolate labrador Bruno has been very well looked after by Caroline for a few years now. He loves going to stay with her, and trots in happily, tail wagging excitedly! Caroline replies promptly to messages, and has always been really helpful.

Our dog loves going to see Caroline at Happy Home. Such a nice set up, very friendly and accommodating ands great piece of mind if we need to leave our dog overnight with her knowing she is well cared for

Louie loves going to Carolines, he pulls us towards her house! She comes highly recommended and very accomodating to our needs. Louie loves boarding too and spending time with his mates!

Really Amazing place to leave your dog. They couldn’t be in better hands. A lovely big space with super close access to great woodland walks.

Grace looked after our cat while we went away for a long weekend. We were nervous leaving him for the 1st time but we needn't have worried. We had regular updates and we returned to a very happy boy. Grace came to visit us 2 times before we went away to meet him which was lovely. We already had Grace booked in for a 2 week holiday in the summer so 3 nights away was a perfect little trial. We won't use anybody else. We are so thankful we found someone we can trust. Thank-you Grace, looks like he really enjoyed his playtimes with you!! 🙂

I was looking for a Dog Walker for a while due to work and not being able to walk my dog as much as I could and I came across Pet Care Four paws and the reviews are amazing. Grace was very kind and gave me all the information I needed on the type of walks she offers and the time slots she has available and it was all I needed to know and ever since I’ve been using Grace. She’s very caring and my dog has great fun with her and I can promise anyone that your dogs will be in safe hands.

Grace is such a great dog sitter. Me and wife having been getting her to look after our dog Bella for a few months now and always does a great job. She is trustworthy, always turns up and really cares about animals. Can't recommend her enough!

Grace currently does 2 visits a day for our pup and sometimes I need her fairly last minute and she's always flexible! She's reliable, passionate and cares about the dogs wellbeing, not much more you could ask for!

Grace (unrelated) provides excellent care for my two elderly cats when I go on holiday. Grace also looks after the house and keeps everything neat and tidy. I return from holidays to two relaxed and contented cats.

Excellent service from Kate who looked after our 2 cats by visited twice per day. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants a good, professional cat sitter in the Stoke Gifford area.

Grace is fantastic with Ace. He looks forward to his walks and always comes back happy. Thouroughly recommend Grace

Grace is so good with our puppy Rupert, she is friendly and reliable and our household couldnt function without her help!

Fantastic care for our pooch every week ..you certainly can't go wrong if you leave your pup with Sami

My 4yr Ruby was new to doggy day care & we chose Tania because of her professionalism & obvious love for the dogs in her care. Ruby absolutely LOVES it, she can't wait get in & see Tania & to play with all the other dogs. We were very lucky to find Willsbridge Walkies & look forward every week to receiving photos of their adventures. 10/10 from us 🐾

Tania has looked after my dog since a young puppy. I really feel that she loves my dog just like I do. I can't recommend her highly enough. I'm sure that in the current situation, places at doggy daycare are very sought after and anyone whose dog goes to Willsbridge Walkies is very lucky to have such a professional and caring provider.

Our dog loves to visit Tania every week, starting the day off excited and full of beans at being dropped off, and returning on an evening very happy and tired after enjoying his day with his regular crew of pals. We have always found Tania to be professional and courteous and hope to be using Willsbridge Walkies for years to come. Highly recommended to anyone looking for doggy daycare and boarding in the area.

Our dog loves Tania and has been attending doggy daycare for a couple of years now. Tania is reliable and trustworthy. We know our dog is safe in her capable hands. He always comes back tired out after a busy fun filled day! Would highly recommend Willsbridge Walkies to anyone

Being able to call on Tania whilst I am away to walk Rocky has been such a relief. She has looked after Rocky like her own dog and sent me lots of updates. I would highly recommend Willsbridge Walkies. Rocky is looking forward to her next holiday at my Dads knowing she will have fun walks with Tania 😊 …

We are first time dog owners and Skye has thrived through attending doggy day care weekly. The care and attention she gets is fantastic and I love the regular updates seeing her having fun with the other dogs. Holidays have always been important to us and was nervous leaving Skye overnight. I had no need to worry, the luxury boarding service is amazing, tailored to our needs for Skye providing us with reassurance that Skye is happy and well looked after whilst we are away. I cannot recommend Willsbridge Walkies enough for the brilliant service and care provided for the dogs.

Willsbridge Walkies has been fantastic for us in the bringing up of our pup. At first we thought the doggy day care was for us to have a day off each week. However, we have come to realise that Mabel has thrived and is so well socialised now with other dogs. She is always so excited when we pull up on the drive and is always welcomed in with such love. It is a lovely location and they have a great setup there. The regular photos sent throughout the day are brilliant and we especially like the team photo of all the dogs together that are there each day. Really can’t rate the family and business highly enough. Paul & Kate x

Willsbridge Walkies have been looking after our spaniel for nearly 2 years now. Tania and her family care for the dogs as if they were their own and our dog loves them. He is always happy when we drop him off and can’t wait to get to see the other dogs and play with all the lovely toys / do enrichment activities which Tania organises. Thank you Willsbridge Walkies

I am so glad I was recommended by my friend to use Willsbridge Walkies! My collie Pip absolutely loves it there and runs in when I drop her off! Tania is very professional and organised and sends me pics throughout the day with updates of how much fun Pip is having with her friends. It gives me huge peace of mind when I’m at work, knowing she’s being well looked after. Highly recommend WW for top doggy daycare 🐾

Tania and her family are fabulous dog sitters. They are totally trustworthy, care for the dogs like they are their own and go out of their way to help. No wonder they are always busy and well supported by their clients. They have been great during the pandemic when we have had to change dates and holidays have been cancelled - nothing is too much trouble for them. Lovely family who provide a fabulous service
