We loved looked after these two rescue dogs that the owners had bought home from Cyprus, we can only imagine the abuse these two went through, they had such sad little faces and some medical issues. ...

Brighton

We looked after Terry for a week who had recently lost his partner June so he was very quiet and subdued. He loved the company and the knowing we were there and stayed near us in the house, sleeping under our bed each night. He was a funny thing, he had his own chipped cat flap with steps in and out of the house but when we were in the kitchen hewould insist on being let in/out, he would not use the cat flap he just sat at the patio door to be let in and out :)...

Cassie was such a mischeivous fun loving puppy we had to have eyes in the back of our heads keeping an eye on her. Missing shoes, socks etc., She was just so adorable.She loved her walks over the meadow and park and any water she saw (puddles, ditches, clean or dirty) was instantly jumped into - playtime!We had great fun looking after her....

Basil was a docile character, full of love. He was such a good boy, very well behaved on the lead walking around his neighbourhood.He loved the car ride and once in the park he was a different dog he never stopped chasing the ball, he loved it....Ged's arm was aching from constantly throwing the ball for him :)...

Wolvercote, Oxford

We had such a chilled time with this lovely lady, Seki, she was so affectionate and just loved sitting on our laps or around our necks....and she never stopped talking, just chatted to us all the time. She was a joy to look after....

We were lucky to look after Stu and Teresa's beautiful home in a lovely part of London, the location was great, the front door opened up onto Tooting Common. We had some great walks over the common and surrounding areas with Nelson and we met lots of dogs and their owners. There was quite a gathering every morning and afternoon for chats and playtime. ...

Trelawny Jamaica

We had a great time in this Jamacian village, with Max in Penny's home. We took great care of Max and enjoyed our walks in the village and our drives out to the beach, he was a bit of a celebrity with the local children, although that cant' be said for the goats and pigs that roamed freely - they stayed clear of him!!  We were really made to feel welcome by the locals and spent a few evenings sat outside Elaine's shop with friends enjoying a beer listening to some great  reggae music&n...
