Helen is a wonderful, thoughtful host. The beautiful house was immaculate when I arrived with everything I needed for my stay and Helen was in regular contact throughout. Nancy, Toffee and Smudge are all adorable, affectionate pets and I enjoyed all the endless cuddles from them. Nancy and Toffee were very good on the lead and the area is stunning with lots of lovely country walks. I would love to go and stay again and highly recommend it.
This was our very first pet sit and we would have to say it is still our best to date. The hosts were very obliging and lovely. They picked us up at the airport, cooked meals and invited us to dinner before they left on their holiday. Their home is beautiful and the gite for guests perfect. What can say here re the pets. So much fun. 6 dogs and 4 cats each with a great personality. So much so we wrote a song for the hosts about the pets on their return. Would definitely do this sit again….
We had an awesome time looking after Sambo and Fnuller. They are very shy cats but quite delightful and easy to look after. The flat is situated perfectly to discover Copenhagen. If possible, bring bicycles as that's the most convenient mode of transport to get around this fantastic city. The flat is lovely and very comfortable. Communication with Gaya was great. She showed us around her flat using Google meet and that was very informative. She also left notes and instructions and the welcome guide was perfect. We can recommend this sit and would love to return. Thanks, Gaya.
It was an absolute pleasure to meet Delia and Max. Delia was so welcoming and has a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood. She was a great communicator and explained everything about Max’s care and personality. We enjoyed our time getting to know her. Max was a joy. Often it takes a few days for a cat to warm up to someone new but not Max. He loves people and he was ready to play and snuggle from the time we got there. If you have a chance to sit for Delia and Max, take it! We would love to sit for them again
This was my first Pet sit with Trustedhousesitters and I would thoroughly recommend it. I looked after an Adorable Cat called Smokey. He was easy too look after and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Kate and her partner are a lovely couple. The apartment is welcoming and cosy. Thank you Kate for an awesome first housesit, and indeed thank you for giving me a chance, being new to the site, when you could have chosen someone else. Highly commendable!
Really beautiful home and incredible pets. Cooper is so loving and really easy to care for. Leon doesn’t come around too much but when he does he is looking for some love. Delray is a really fun and cute town. I highly recommend the Silverball Arcade. We loved our time with Cooper and Leon and would definitely return.

Alison is a terrific groomer! She is really patient with my little baby, despite my dogs difficult behaviour when having her claws cut and teeth brushed. I can't thank her enough for how attentive she's been towards my dogs needs. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Also, my dog has become so much more confident and settled since I've been taking her to Alison. She's worked wonders!
Alison was extremely organised and professional, which gave me the reassurance i needed to trust her in looking after my rabbit. Great facilities for boarding as well as a friendly atmosphere. I will definitely use her again in the future when i am going away.
Alison also provides bunny boarding, something very hard to find! Both bundles of fluff were well looked after, safe, well fed. In fact this was their bunny holiday! Will be using her services again.
Alison does an amazing job but the best bit is the super relaxed atmosphere for the dogs - no cages just lots of love and care.
Our dog loves going to Alison's
Fantastic
Thank you xx
We contacted Agnes when we were looking for someone to home board our Jack Russell, Poppy. We arranged to meet Agnes with her own dogs so that she could see how Poppy was with them. As Poppy is a rescue dog and had become very attached to us we were concerned that she wouldn't settle if we left her for a week. We needn't have worried though as she was very happy with Agnes and her family, and we received regular updates and photos showing us what she was up to. In fact when we went to pick her up she didn't seem too bothered and I think she would have been happy to stay longer. I would highly recommend Agnes Pet Sitting Services.
Highly recommend Agnes, who looked after our dog whilst we visited the RSC theatre. Agnes was very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times and responded to correspondence very quickly when booking. We were able to relax and enjoy the show knowing he was in safe hands. Our little dog very much enjoyed his country walk with Agnes and playing with the others who were visiting Agnes that day. Can’t wait to visit again soon! Thanks Agnes.
We asked Agnes to care for my son's Greyhound whilst he got married at a hotel in Stratford. Agnes collected him from the venue, brought him back to have pictures taken with the bride and groom and returned him the next day. We could not have asked for better service and Diego was settled and happy with Agnes. Would definitely recommend her. Thank you for the care and attention you gave Diego
Agnes cares for our four legged friend as if he was her own. She’s friendly, dependable, incredibly caring, and kind to the animals she looks after and walks. I’m so pleased we found her, she has helped us out for 3 years now, from early puppy visits to walks and occasional overnight stays.
Agnes is kind and thoughtful. She is loved my pooch and us hoomans. She has been a big presence in our dogs life since we bought him home and he's always extremely excited to see her. Can't rate her highly enough
Great service! Confident leaving Agnes in charge of Pru... Pru far more settled being looked after at home than in a cattery. Also great Agnes will look after plants and garden when needed... And looks after the bin too if needed! Thanks
Vickie has looked after Mabel - my cockapoo - several times now. Spots and Tails is like a luxury holiday camp for dogs! Mabel has an amazing time and Vickie is caring and thoughtful and sends me lots of updates. Mabel knows when we are getting close to Spots and Tails in the car and gets very excited. She ran in and didn’t even look back last time I dropped her. That for me is brilliant because I know she’s happy and safe.
Teddy didn't like going anywhere without me but after being introduced to Spots and Tails Day care service Teddy he became more confident. He really looks forward to his day out with Vickie and his friends and I know he is safe. Vickie always sends videos of their day which is lovely to watch.
My dog always has the best time here , Vickie is so caring always keeps him busy, he is always excited to see her. She gives me regular updates and always accommodates last minute. The farm has so much land they can run around and its fenced to protect little ones, its a like a retreat for my dog
Loki has loved boarding and being there for daytimes too. So much so that he doesn’t want to come home. Get sent plenty of pictures and videos playing and hogging the doggy pool! Vickie and the team have really shown they care about my dog and his well being.
Our dog is always very happy to spend time at Spots and Tails. She runs to Vicki when we drop her off. There is a very caring feel to the place that gives you the confidence to leave your dog there.
Vickie has looked after my Labrador, Luna, from 6 months old, and she loves her time there, including boarding over summer holidays. She is always excited when I drop her off and Vickie has always been incredibly accommodating.
Vickie looked after our miniature schnauzer for 10 days while we were on holiday. Her updates were great and he clearly had a brilliant time with her. I would really recommend to any pet owners.
I have been using Spots and Tails for over a year now for my dog Zuke. After spending months looking for a daycare service that would cater to Zukes needs. Unfortunately Zuke has separation issues and most places I contacted could not guarantee he would not be left unattended. Until I found Spots and Tails, they listened to all my concerns and offered a few short sessions to see how Zuke was. Zuke is not an easy dog, as well as his separation issues he is muzzled due to eating things he shouldn't and he can get very excited and noisy. Spots and Tails have been very accommodating, nothing seems too much for them. They often send pictures of how he is settling and him playing with other dogs. Zuke is my world and I feel confident and reassured that Zuke is safe in Spots and Tails hands.
My two dogs absolutely love going to Spots and Tails .The excitement builds when they get to the end of the drive and they can’t wait to get out . I have used Spots and Tails many times and my dogs always have fantastic care and it’s a really excellent service .
I would recommend Spots and Tails for anyone looking for dog boarding. I have two dogs, including a really nervous rescue dog. Vickie has been so kind and patient. Infact my rescue dog Elon ran up to her excitedly after a couple of play dates, which is testament to Vickie as Elon virtually never does this. Holly also loves it, with plenty of space to run around. It was such a relief for me when we went on holiday knowing that Vickie would be taking care of them. Thanks Vickie!
Highly recommended. Willow is a superb home from home establishment . I can’t thank Sandra enough for Time & patience in giving my reactive dog a chance to board . Molly now trusts Sandra & has met many of the boarders on many occasions. The secure garden, the beautiful on lead walks , the peaceful home environment, the love & knowledge provided is outstanding. Thanks x
The Willows is nothing short of amazing. My dog Henry is notorious for being reluctant to be anywhere other than with me…..we’ve been through a lot together. However, nowadays if we pull up at the gates he can’t wait to get in. He’s treated like part of a family, no outside kennels, just, simply a true home from home. Safe secure and loved. 200% recommended Thank you Sandra and Dan😁
What a wonderful find !! Outstanding!! The Willows Dog boarding is everything every Caring dog owner should want to use if they value their pet dog. Our little Cavapoo Alfie has spent his first day out there today and it was obvious he enjoyed his stay from his smile and now notorious waggy tail. Beautiful home and facilities and surroundings. From the moment we met Sandra at a previous meet and greet we and Alfie were made most welcome. We were instantly reassured to know that Alfie would be lovingly cared for in a future planned overnight stay. The application form and registration on- line required by the council may initially seem daunting and unnecessary to some. But to us it meant that Sandra wants to provide a 5 Star stay for our precious pet and was more than willing to help us to complete it. We have never left Alfie anywhere before, but now have complete confidence to give him a holiday or day out again in the future. Thank you Sandra for the lovely photos you sent us during his stay.
I struggled to find a suitable dog boarder for my Cockapoo as she isn’t used to being left with anyone and doesn’t like being alone even for short periods of time. I was delighted to discover The Willows, which seems perfect for her, she has had two short stays so far and has been happy and relaxed both times. Every effort is made to create a home from home experience for your dog, with lots of love, attention, playtime and walks. I now have peace of mind that my dog will be well cared for and content while we enjoy our holiday.
Our dog stayed with Sandra and Dan at the Willows for 3 weeks in August 2023. It was the first time she'd stayed at a 'boarding' place. But really this was more like staying at a lovely hotel for her. The house and gardens are immaculate. It seems like she was very well looked after with regular walks in the countryside. We got regular updates (and photos). They don't take lots of dogs at the same time and made sure that she was going to be ok staying there by organising a day visit and an overnight visit beforehand. I will happily take Rose there again and would definitely recommend the Willows.
I’m so pleased I came across The Willows when I was looking for home boarding for my two dogs, one of whom is a rescue. It really is a home from home and Sandra and Dan clearly love what they do. From my initial enquiry, to the meet and greet and then the actual stay, it’s all been brilliant. It’s a fabulous place and I feel 100% happy and reassured that my dogs are being loved and looked after. They both enjoy going and love Sandra and Dan. Great communication throughout, it’s so nice to get messages and photos while they’re away.
Sandra and Dan provide such a lovely home from home for our sproodle Loki. We wanted to find somewhere that took the time to understand each dogs requirements and make each stay relaxing and fun - which they do with such care and attention. They provide peace of mind with regular updates and photos and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to leave their furry family member in the best possible care. We have Loki booked in for a number of stays over the next 7 months whilst we are away and its lovely to know shes in safe hands :-)
We have struggled to find somewhere to take our 7 year old Cockapoo when we go away. We work from home so he is used to being with us but after an initial stay at The Willows he came back relaxed and happy. Superb setting and a real home from home.
We are so happy we found Sandra and her husband at The Willows. Our dog, Molly has special needs due to being beaten and because of this, we are extremely protective of her but we are 110% confident and comfortable leaving Molly in their capable and loving care. Molly instantly took to them and also gets on very well with their dog, Charlie who is a little sweetheart. My husband and I highly recommend The Willows and it's the only place we'll take our Molly.
Not only Sandra and Dan love dogs but they do such a professional, amazing job. Monroe (9 months) had the best time of his life with friends, long walks, care and love at The Willows. We had a fantastic time too, knowing how happy and well cared for he was. Some (mis-)behaviours were even left behind when he came back home. Loved it all; next holiday for dog and humans is already booked. Thank you.
Jess our border collie went off to Katie, one of mollycoddles sitter's. Jess made herself right at home having lots of human snuggles with Katie and her children. I was able to enjoy my weekend knowing that Jess was having as much fun as I, and being well cared for. Can't recommend highly enough.
Mollycoddles looked after our two cats while we were away. We hadn’t had the cats long and were worried about leaving them but Fin put our minds at rest completely. The company were completely professional at all times and were also very caring. Absolutely recommend!
I have been using Mollycoddles for a couple of years now. This is a very professional business that took time to match our dog with a sitter who had the perfect environment for her. Jessie now goes regularly to Karen and has a great time. She seems as happy with Karen and her family in their home as she is with us. She just walks in like she owns the place and doesn’t bat an eye when I go to leave. The process to book stays whether they are for a day or weeks is very straight forward via the website and billing and payment are just as simple.
Mollycoddles regularly looks after our collie Monty. He is well looked after and cared for. Not only is the service an extremely high standard its flexible and has helped us out at difficult times.I can't recommend highly enough.
I cannot recommend Mollycoddles Pet Care enough. A real home from home where my dogs were spoilt and had lots of attention while we were away. We can relax knowing our dogs are happy.
Ted had the best time with Katie.. it was so lovely and reassuring to receive the photos and the updates whilst we were away. Ted made two new friends with Bella and Bonnie ... he clearly had so much fun. Katie and her family were so kind and it was clear to see Ted had the best time.
It’s a late review as our dog was cared for by Jayne and Mike in December for 2 nights. We were so lucky that our dog had the best care and we would have no hesitation in recommending mollycoddles and Jayne and Mike, we will definitely be using them again
My dog brandi has been going to mollycoddles for years and years.. Id never take her anywhere else... just fab,
Mollycoddles helped us in an hour of need under emergency boarding. Very pleased with the service.Thank you!
Kind, caring people who truly love animals. Would highly recommend.
We have been taking our dog, Bobby, to Kay for a couple of years now and although we’re now about a 45 minutes drive away, we still choose Meadow Kennels as the first choice for a Bobby sitter. Kay is lovely and always makes me feel comfortable when dropping Bobby off and even though I can be an anxious mess when dropping him off sometimes, I do feel at ease that he will be well looked after. Meadow Kennels is popular in demand so its best to book in advance for your doggies holiday (boarding), to save disappointment! Not long picked Bobby up today and he’s a picture of him chilling on his spot 😊 Thank you Meadow Kennels x
As always, our 3 beagles are looked after with care, compassion and understanding. Kay is a highly skilled kennel owner with many years experience. Always our first choice in kenneling and the dogs love going as can be heard as we drive down the lane and the dogs start barking in anticipation, then pulling eagerly to go in.
I've just collected my old dog from Meadow Kennels and I'm so happy with the way Kay and her team have looked after him. They have such a deep and empathetic knowledge of dogs - I wouldn't hesitate to take Harper there again. Highly recommended!
Brilliant facilities and even better staff. Kay and Amy have made our little pup so happy to be dropped off for daycare that her early separation anxiety is a thing of the past. It’s been a great way to socialise a pup while getting much needed time in the office for me. Thanks team for being so brilliant and for looking after our little monkey! Recommended them to our puppy class as we know how hard it can be to find somewhere that has it all and we’re so grateful to have found it with Meadow Kennels!
We left our big dog in Meadow Kennels for a month, due to personal circumstances, and it was not easy to feel ok about it but Kay made sure we knew our dog was happy there, sending us pictures, some news. She was resposive and reliable. I highly recommend the place.
Kay is great! My dog is happy to arrive at her kennel/day care and clearly loves her, possibly more than he loves me! She has a deep understanding of dogs' behavior. I've been using Meadow Kennels for more than 18 months and will continue for many years to come.
We have been using meadow kennels for the past 9 years for our first dog Bruno and now for our little dog Fred. He loves it there and always comes home happy and relaxed. It’s good value for money and I know when I drop Fred off he will be lovingly cared for. Highly recommend.
Our mini schnauzer Digby goes to daycare here on weekdays whilst I'm at work and he loves it. He gets so excited to go and see all his friends when we arrive and he loves Kay the owner. So nice to be able to leave him somewhere where I know he's happy and well looked after - highly recommend
Merlin has stayed here many times. He really likes going, which makes me happy. I certainly recommend the kennels (aka dog hotel!) and also the dog grooming facility, which I was really pleased with.
Kay always takes superb care of our flatcoated retriever and is lovely to work with.
Our young Labardor loves her time at Bow Wow, they are a great well organised team. Thanks
Love sending our fur baby here. She always comes home knackered. Staff are great.
Excellent care. Fantastic exercise paddock. Brilliant staff.
Have been sending our labradoodle to Al for about 6 years now . The whole team are fantastic .
Friendly, animal loving team. My golden retriever loves her visits.
Great place - lovely guys working there
Fantastic place for our 4 legged friends.
We have used Dave twice now , he comes and feeds our cats and it is very comforting knowing he makes sure they are there and safe and will look for them if they are missing , he contacts me to let me know all is ok and sends photos also knowing his wife is a vet so if one of ours cats seemed unwell they are in the best hands , it also very reasonable price wise and the cats seems very chilled about it and are super friendly with him
