About Us

Our aim is to help you find the best possible personal care for your dog. Meeting one of our Carers before you go away, we want you to fully relax while you are away leaving your dog with us. Whether on holiday or for work our Carers will look after your dog just as you do within the Carers own home. Holidays4Dogs Northern Ireland hopes to be able to offer you a range of fabulous local Dog Carers soon. Carers joining our team may have a sociable dog of their own looking for a holiday playmate or no longer own a dog of their own but enjoy the company of visiting dogs.

All our carers are interviewed, fully audited and insured by us in their own home to operate to our high standards. They come from all walks of life and have experience with a great variety of different breeds of dog.

Please do not hesitate to call us or register your interest online.

 Individual one to one holiday for your dog!

Whether your dog gets along with other dogs & would enjoy the company of the carers own dog or prefer to be the only dog in the home; we have approved carers to suit all. We only accept dogs from one household at a time per carer and never split same family dogs. Register your interest today & come & meet one of our local carers to see for yourself.

Northern Ireland Carers, a glorious place to stay!

All our carers are required to have a safe, dog friendly enclosed garden. They also provide a minimum of two good walks per day (or whatever your dog requires). We hand pick carers who have great walks right from the property without having to get in the car and with your permission most are willing to let your dog with good re-call off the lead in a safe place.

Part of the family and all home comforts

Every guest in our care is welcomed into the carers home and live with the carers family just as they would at home. All our approved carers are very experienced dog lovers and have time at home to look after your pet. Some carers no longer own a dog of their own, others own a sociable dog whom you’ll get to meet. All just love having regular guest dogs to stay and will welcome you and your dog with open arms!

New Carers always welcome

  • A big slurp from Rowan and a big thank you from me for looking after her so well, she gets spoiled at yours I think!

    S. PICKARD - WAKEFIELD Dog Owner
  • Dolly spent 2 weeks with Sally and Jeff. They kept us informed by text whilst we were away which eased our minds as we've not left her before. On our return, it was obvious Dolly had felt completely at home and had been well looked after. It was also clear that Sally and Jeff had enjoyed having her. Thank you Sally and Jeff and Holidays4Dogs.  

    KEVIN TAYLOR - BARNSLEY Dog Owner
  • Duke had a wonderful time and it was such a relief to know that he was happy and well cared for while we were away. Your service was so helpful and I appreciate the effort you all went to to find Duke a suitable match for his holiday.

    C. BAINES - RUTLAND Dog Owner
  • Marley was so well looked after and cared for which was a big relief for us. Linda also kept in touch with us with regular messages and photos which we found comforting and greatly received showing that Marley was safe, well and also enjoying his holiday. Can't recommend and thank enough!

    MOISER FAMILY - COUNTY DURHAM Dog Owner
  • This was our first experience of Holidays4dogs and we are so impressed! Very happy for Betsy to stay again. You are a real find and I will not hesitate to recommend you to other dog people.

    J. GRIERSON - CHELTENHAM Dog Owner
  • I don't have words to describe, Hilary was just absolutely a wonderful lady who kept us informed sending pictures and texts. I look forward to booking  with Hilary again as can't speak highly enough of her. Thank you Holidays4Dogs.

    GILLESPIE FAMILY - LEEDS Dog Owners
  • I can definitely recommend Holidays4Dogs who went out of their way to arrange a carer for my dog Alfie a lively springer spaniel at short notice allowing me to take my granddaughter on holiday. Alfie stayed with Ian and his family near Doncaster who took wonderful care of him. They had a lovely garden and nearby walks and I would be more than happy to leave Alfie with them again.

    J . HARPER - NOTTINGHAM Dog Owner
  • You were simply great  the way you went about finding the best carer for Tess, Juliet, and the care and attention to all the subsequent details in arranging this was second to none.

    S. MURIEL - SURREY Dog Owner
  • I placed my much loved Labrador with Zoe who immediately put me at ease and whilst on our holiday sent me photographs via e mail to show how well she had settled. If you want to see your dog actually physically smile a trip to Zoe's lovely home is what is needed. Worth every penny and more.

    S. JACKSON - MANSFIELD Dog Owner
  • I was very impressed with the service from the beginning when I phoned for a carer to be found, it proved very difficult but the staff did not give up and found Millie my 13 year old Staffie who is suffering from cancer a lovely holiday home with John and Angela.

    M. GUEST - WAKEFIELD Dog Owner
  • Very highly recommended! We were nervous at first as Diesel didn’t fare well in kennels for our last holiday. Was matched with a few carers, chose Sally and Jeff who welcomed Diesel with so much love. Would really love to thank them for their kindness and love to Diesel who had a holiday of his own. Diesel settled in and made himself at home from the start. If needed would definitely book Sally and Jeff again. A big thank you from the Redfern family and lots of licks from Diesel.  

    REDFERN FAMILY - NOTTINGHAM Dog Owner
  • “It’s such a lovely job. We Carers get to have such lovely dogs to live in with us and the lucky owners get to have their holiday without the stress of putting their dog in kennels. A win-win situation! New Carers are always welcome and are vetted to see their home and garden are suitable, there’s always support and you get pocket money too! How good is that?! So if you work from home or are retired and can help an owner by looking after their dog safely, give Holidays 4 Dogs a call. Simply the best!”

    RACHAEL - GLOUCESTERSHIRE Dog Carer
  • Skip our Border Collie (aged 9) went to stay with Susan for 10 days as we had to Scotland. We were a little anxious about leaving him but decided that this was the better option than kennels as he had been a rescue. Susan was an excellent carer to him, he was walked and fed and loved and had a marvellous time. Pictures were sent of him out for walks which was nice touch. He certainly enjoyed himself and will be booked again at a later date. Thank you very much for this service.

    S. HINCHCLIFFE - DIDCOT Dog Owner
  • We just returned from a lovely week in the sun, whilst we were away we left our precious pooch Archie with Noreen in Darlington. We received texts and a picture of Archie chilling out after a lovely long walk, it’s great to find someone who we can leave Archie with and feel completely happy that he is being well cared for. We will have no hesitation in using Noreen and Holidays 4 Dogs next time we go away.

    J. DAWSON - STOCKTON ON TEESSIDE Dog Owner
  • This was the first time I have used Holidays 4 Dogs and I was so pleased. I was very anxious leaving my puppy but Mark and Janice made me feel very at ease, I could tell by the first meet that Raffy would love his stay and he did. I will definitely be using Holidays 4 dogs again in the future and I would love for Raffy to stay with the same people as they were so friendly and welcoming. He well and truly loved his stay.

    K. PARK – YARM Dog Owner
  • As an elderly dog Sasha used to get very stressed in kennels. Having picked her up today I have never seen her so happy and relaxed after we’ve been away. I will definitely be using Holidays 4 Dogs again. Thanks Jane and George.

    J. CRISP – GUISBOROUGH Dog Owner
  • Wow what can I say?! Highly recommended and matched to a carer that met my needs (even though they probably thought I was crazy). The carer took my dog into her home and he loved it, the walks and the company! Loved getting daily emails and photos so we weren’t worrying! 10/10

    KELLY ADAMS – GUISBOROUGH Dog Owner
  • We couldn’t have asked for a better family to have Luna. Sue and Paul were absolutely lovely from day one when we took Luna to meet them. We went on holiday feeling totally happy and confident in leaving Luna knowing how well she was going to be cared for, and it didn’t disappoint. Sue sent us photos when we were away showing Luna having a fab time with them and their 2 dogs Dudley and Stanley who were fantastic. When we collected Luna it was clear she had bonded with Sue and Paul and was really happy in their company. We will definitely be using them again and I can’t praise them enough.

    KAREN FERGUSON - WESTON SUPER MARE
  • Lovely people! Welcomed me and my dog warmly. Nothing was too much trouble. Lots of walks, plus a text to let me know dog settled well the first evening. Also very flexible about pick up time. We would thoroughly recommend and certainly hope to board with them again. 5* service.

    N. CALVERT - YARM Dog owner
  • Thank you so much to Gary for looking after Lola for us while we went on holiday. We didn’t have any worries and knew she would be happy and have fun! We will definitely be recommending to friends and family, will also use again.  Fantastic Holidays4Dogs!

    R. PURSEY - MIDDLESBROUGH Dog owner
  • Pea has just returned from her second fabulous holiday with Mark and Jan and their two dogs Beauty and Dina. She didn’t want to come home! I wish I’d known about this service when I had my Cocker spaniel Max. Pea thoroughly enjoyed herself with Mark and Jan and has a special friendship with Beauty that needs to be seen to be believed. It was two months since they’d since each other but they were instantly all ‘loved up’!

    Z. CANNING - SUNDERLAND Dog owner
  • My dog Boots has just spent a week with Jane and George whilst I went on holiday. This was the first time I'd used a pet minding service as family had always stayed with him in the past. I felt immediately at ease with both Jane and George when Boots and I went for the initial meeting prior to confirming his reservation. It was clearly obvious that Jane and George were dog lovers, they asked lots of questions on his likes and dislikes and generally wanted to get to know him. 

    GILL NICHOLSON - MIDDLESBROUGH Dog Owner
  • This was the first time I had left Mac with other than friends, but he has made friends. The organisation was smooth, I was kept fully involved and Carol obviously did a great job looking after him. He seemed reluctant to leave! I will happily leave him with her again, and would recommend the service to others.

    VALERIE - WHITBY Dog Owner
  • We can't fault Holidays4Dogs in anyway, great service. Our carers Elaine/Dawn were totally professional and very caring from the word go. Having a look at the carers home before the stays put our minds at rest. We had complete peace of mind while we where away knowing that our elderly dog Bella would be cared for like one of the family. On both pick ups, she was happy and healthy. Would highly recommend Holidays4Dogs and will be booking again soon

    CHRIS AND PAM - HULL Dog Owners
  • It was Pongo's third visit to Debbie's and as usual as soon as we got down her street he was up and ready to see her. I opened the car door and he ran straight in tail wagging. I am so happy that he loves going it puts our minds at rest knowing he is being well looked after. Wonderful service.

    JULIE WOOD - EAST YORKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Great East Yorkshire dog care service, very thorough and we immediately felt at ease leaving Coco with Kendra after the 'meet & greet' that had been arranged. When we picked up Coco she was a picture of health and looked to have had a wonderful time which was why it was so difficult to cajole her home to us! Really impressed with both Holidays4Dogs Hull East Yorkshire but uber impressed with how Kendra & family looked after our little princess we will definitely be using you in the future.

    J. VERNOUM - EAST YORKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • We would like to thank Steve and Kruae so much for looking after Oscar, a great indication that he enjoyed his stay was that when he came home he just slotted back into his normal routine, it was as if we hadn't been away. Oscar is much loved and is one of the family and it is such a massive thing to have peace of mind that he will be looked after so well. When Steve said that he would be happy to look after Oscar in the future, it was just the icing on the cake. The whole experience with Holidays4Dogs from first speaking to Andy to picking up Oscar yesterday was first class and we will definitely be using them again without hesitation. Once again thanks to Steve and Kruae for taking such lovely care of Oscar.

    J. HORN - EAST YORKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Our dog Macy has been to see Linda several times and absolutely loves her time there. Linda is so sweet with her and even sends me pictures while we are gone to show us that Macy is doing just fine. We are so happy to have found this service and will continue to use Holidays4Dogs each time we travel on holiday.

    A. YARBROUGH - WEYBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • As a new Carer this year, I very much enjoying having different dogs to stay.  All my dogs that have come are having repeat bookings for next year and everything is made so easy to manage. My grandchildren love having dogs to walk! Highly recommended.

    RUTH - MILTON KEYNES Dog Carer
  • I love every bit of it every dog is different but I love them all.  They all have their own personality.

    SONIA - NORTHAMPTONSHIRE Dog carer
  • This was our first holiday away from our dogs, and I was very anxious to leave them with people we didn't really know, but my fears were un-grounded, on our return  they appeared very happy  and had been well cared for. Judy and Andrew did a splendid job, and I would not hesitate to book them in again.

    P. MANNERS - BURNHAM ON SEA Dog Owner
  • My little dog Chips went to stay with Patricia while I went on holiday. I was so worried would he be crying all the time etc. Well chips had a better holiday than I had. He was so well looked after and I don't think that he missed me once. I think that he missed Patsy and Pete when he came back to me. They are worth more than a 5* they are excellent. Chips is hoping to go back to them in October.

    P. PEACE - BRISTOL Dog Owner
  • Ollie and Daisy had a fantastic holiday, a true home from home! I will recommend this service to all my friends will definitely use again, absolutely brilliant.

    C. WHITE - CREWKERNE Dog Owner
  • Thank you for looking after our Westie, Poppy whilst we were on holiday. Poppy obviously had a lovely time, and we were very happy to leave her in Paul's care. We particularly liked receiving emails from "Poppy" with photos showing her having fun, which made our holiday more relaxing knowing that she was not missing us too much! I thoroughly recommend using this service and we will definitely be using it again.

    J. PHYLOSOFOU - Dog Owner
  • We've used Holidays4Dogs twice now and couldn't recommend the service more highly. Our dog Brecon was made very welcome at both carers homes and settled in really well. We were very nervous leaving her but we were reassured with photos and messages of how she was getting on. Having peace of mind that Brecon is enjoying her holiday allows us to enjoy ours - it may not be often that we holiday without her but knowing she has a wider family who take her in and give her the love and attention she needs makes a real difference.

    MANDI AND SIMON - AVONMOUTH Dog Owners
  • Prince had a lovely time with his sitter Paul. Paul is very caring and looked after Prince very well. This is the first time I have used Holidays4Dogs and will happily do so in the future

    JENNY - BOURNEMOUTH Dog Owner
  • Our little dog Frankie has always stayed with friends or family but at times it can be too much to ask, so we found Holidays4Dogs! Cindy took Frankie for a weekend and I'm not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up. Frankie was spoilt rotten, with lots of attention and games during her stay, she came home exhausted but happy. We would highly recommend this service to anyone who worries about leaving their dog behind. We had no concerns leaving Frankie, Cindy was clearly a dog lover herself and enjoyed having our Frankie to stay. Thank you Cindy! Frankie is looking forward to her next stay with you hopefully soon.

    R. THOMAS - PORTISHEAD Dog Owner
  • The best kennel alternative out there. Charlie had a lovely time and we would be more than happy to send him again. The constant picture updates really helped put our minds at ease

    L. BECKER - REDCAR Dog Owner
  • It was with some trepidation that we left our much loved Schnauzer with strangers. He is just two, very excitable but intelligent and great fun. In the event all went very well and we all seem to be delighted with the result. That includes Holidays4Dogs, the sitters, ourselves and of course, Louis. So a big thank you all round!

    P. CALLER - CAMBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • We have dealt with Louise our local holidays 4 dogs business owner for the Cambridgeshire and Suffolk area since she started in July 2015. Her help and assistance in matching us to Jackie and her lovely family, her sooo laid back greyhound vixen and her very happy home. We have left a very nervous Lucky now on four occasions with another date booked for august 2016, we were happily amazed at Jackie's thoughtfulness and reassurance on the first and subsequent stays. Lucky now gets excited when we turn into Jackie's road!! It really is just like being at home for Lucky and relaxing for us. The service is really special, Lucky gets so spoilt when he stays, having a cuddle on the sofas, sleeping on the bed with vixen, lots of extra attention, playtime, walks and very special treats.

    MR & MRS ADAMS - IPSWICH Dog Owner
  • Louise Radcliffe in Bury St Edmunds organised a home from home stay for my Jack Russell Badger, with the lovely Lynn. Badger had a magic 3 weeks, being walked in the forest, chasing squirrels sleeping on the couch and generally lording it up! I cannot speak highly enough of the kindness and care lavished on my little dog and would not hesitate to use this company again.

    E. CLARKE - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Carer
  • My elderly Maltese dog was cared for perfectly during his stay with Lynn in Suffolk. She was immensely caring and kind to him as well as very welcoming during our introductory visit to her immaculate home. He clearly was very happy and had enjoyed his stay in a 'home from home' environment. Lynn also took great care to keep us informed that he had settled in and his activities during his stay. I would be delighted to book again with Lynn and Holidays 4 Dogs if the need arose.

    CLAIRE WALKER - THRETFORD Dog Owner
  • Very friendly, efficient and reliable service from the Cambridgeshire branch. Very easy and convenient online carer availability checker and booking service. Very happy with the carer we were allocated. A real dog lover who looked after our precious pooch really well. Already booked the next holidays in. Very satisfied with service and would highly recommend.

    JOHN CRIPWELL - CAMBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • Left my precious parsons terrier Tia with Kate through Holidays4Dogs. What a brilliant experience. The whole process from the start of contacting Louise to the pre stay visit with Kate through to Dropping Tia off and collecting her after a worry free holiday was wonderful. Kate even set photos of Tia playing ball. I can't recommend Holidays4Dogs enough.

    MRS L. GLEESON - STOWMARKET Dog Owner
  • Louise contacted me straight away by phone who gave me the lady's name and details of where my beloved Buster would most likely stay. Kate contacted me and we made a time to meet. She was a lovely lady and at once I felt assured it was gonna be a home from home stay for Buster. Kate was so in love with buster and he made himself very much at home with her and her family and her dog Alfie.

    L. FLOWERS - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Huge thanks to Janet who looked after our ten-year old Lowchen as if he was hers. She took him for regular walks and got to know him really well after five days. Thanks to Holidays4Dogs, we were able to relax and enjoy our break to France, safe in the knowledge that Cookie was happy, as we stayed in contact with Janet. Would definitely use the service again.

    G. CUBBIT - IPSWICH Dog Owner
  • The service is friendly helpful and really efficient. And most importantly our dog was happy and very well cared for, with a lovely big garden and another dog to play with … he was tired but happy! I would not hesitate to recommend Holidays4Dogs.

    M. COURTEEN - WOODBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • I can not heap enough praise on Louise and Holidays4Dogs in Suffolk. This was the first time we had left our 14 y/o Labrador with any one as we have always taken him away with us so we were a bit worried but after contacting Louise and going through a thorough registration process and then meeting Isobel and viewing his holiday home we knew we had nothing to worry about. Leo was spoilt rotten he was with people who treated him like their own and with regular updates from Isobel we could relax knowing that he was enjoying his holiday as much as we were enjoying ours. I will certainly be using them again and would be happy to recommend them to anyone.

    PAUL - BURY ST EDMUNDS & RETIRED SERVICE DOG 'LEO' Dog Owner
  • Our 15 month old German Shepherd/Husky, Logan, stayed with Sharon and Stuart this weekend. It's the first time we have been away without him and I was anxious about putting him in Kennels as he requires a lot of exercise, luckily Holidays 4 Dogs had the perfect carers for him so we avoided kennels! He had a fantastic time and is actually a bit sad to be home again without his new best friend, their dog Kizzy! They have experience looking after larger dogs and their dog Kizzy was brilliant with Logan. Sharon sent me pictures of his time with them throughout the weekend so that we knew how he was getting on. We ended up delayed in coming to pick him up but they were really flexible. Lovely couple who clearly love dogs and are very capable at looking after them. Will definitely be happy to leave Logan with them again next time we are away.

    CAMILLA MOORE - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • WONDERFUL! Just got back from visiting the lovely Bev who will be looking after our Border Collie pup for us for a couple of days - I can't say enough good things! Chayse didn't want to come home and I am safe in the knowledge that he will be happy and well looked after when we are away.

    B. STILES - YORK Dog Owner
  • Digby had a wonderful time with Ian & Kate in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside whilst we had a night in the town, happy he was in very good and capable hands - thank you for making our night away as stress free as it could be! Highly recommended 

    ADRIENNE POWELL - CAMBRIDGE (VISITING YORK) Dog Owner
  • 5* Absolutely perfect first dog sit for our 14 week old pup. We won't hesitate to ask for the same sitters again.

    B. A PEPPER - YORK Dog Owner
  • It's the first time the dogs have been left whilst we go on holiday, I was introduced to Trish who lives local to us, we have been away for 10 days and they have we're so happy and healthy when I returned. I would recommend using them to anyone.

    MICHELLE HARTLEY - LEEDS Dog Owner
  • Carol and Barry were so nice from our initial meeting in their immaculate home they reassured us that Rex our 9 year old Border Collie would be cared for with Love and Attention. Rex had never been away from us before but we came home to a relaxed and Happy dog. We would happily recommend this lovely couple to everyone. Louise and Shaun.

    SHAUN HOBSON - ROTHERHAM Dog Owner
  • We contacted the company, the response was lovely, the visit with our dogs carer, Helga instantly made us feel at ease and able to look forward to our visit away! So last weekend we went away, left Tilly for 4 days with Helga and she had a lovely time, she'd been walked regularly and off the lead and even went to the beach plus more importantly she'd been cuddled and fussed!

    MR DOE - DRIFFIELD Dog Carer
  • Dolly has just spent 2 weeks with Sally and Jeff. They kept us informed by text whilst we were away which eased our minds as we've not left her before. On our return, it was obvious Dolly had felt completely at home and had been well looked after. It was also clear that Sally and Jeff had enjoyed having her. Thank you Sally and Jeff and Holidays 4 Dogs.

    KEVIN TAYLOR - BARNSLEY Dog Carer
  • I have used Holidays4Dogs since the early days, when Claire set the business up. I have had a few carers over the years and they have all been exceptional. I have never worried about going away on holiday as I know my dogs are in really good and capable hands.

    KATHRYN HANKS - YORK Dog Owner
  • Any worries I had about leaving my two dogs were totally dismissed after meeting Ann her family. They are such loving people I knew they were in safe hands. I would not hesitate to use them again.

    CAROLYN FALLON - DONCASTER Dog Owner
  • Sheila looked after my little dog Stella for a long weekend. Stella got on very well with Sheila and her 2 little dogs. I also left Stella with peace of mine that she would be well looked after as Sheila is a true dog lover, and had a great set up at her home and in the garden for the dogs to play.

    H. BERRIDGE-BURLEY - LEEDS Dog Owner
  • Excellent service, first time I have used Holidays4dogs while I was on holiday, the lady who looked after my dog was lovely, so caring and trustworthy, which meant I could relax and not worry.

    SANDRA HUGHES - BROMSGROVE Dog Owner
  • Bentley clearly loved his stay with Dot. He came back much calmer and more playful. How fortunate to find such an excellent home from home for him.

    CHRISTINE MULLEN - LEDBURY Dog Owner
  • It was the first time our dog Finn had been away we had a meeting with Barbara and John at their home first. The service they provided was excellent from booking to collection where we took home a very happy contented dog. Would highly recommend Holiday4dogs to anyone

    MRS S. KENT - WORCESTER PARK Dog Owner
  • I would highly recommend using Holidays4Dogs to anyone looking for boarding their dog. John and Barbara have been exceptional hosts to our Buckley on a number of occasions. I can leave on holiday or work trips confident my dog is in great hands and well tended to. I receive updates and even pictures of him enjoying his holiday whilst I enjoy mine. Great service provided, they treat Buckley as though he's part of their family.

    ERIC WEBB - LONDON Dog Owner
  • Our dog Macy has been to see Linda several times and absolutely loves her time there. Linda is so sweet with her and even sends me pictures while we are gone to show us that Macy is doing just fine. We are so happy to have found this service and will continue to use Holidays4Dogs each time we travel on holiday.

    AMY YAR - WEYBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • The first time I have ever left my 15 year old Springer anywhere and he absolutely thrived. The match with his carers was perfect and they obviously loved and understood older dogs. They were also charming and reassuring to me too. I cannot recommend H4D more highly.  

    ALISON DODD - LONDON Dog Owner
  • Our dog, Maggie, has stayed with Barbara and John on several occasions and every time the service has been very personal and excellent. They take such wonderful care of Maggie that provides us real peace of mind. I have no hesitation in recommending Holidays 4 Dogs for carers that you can really trust.

    KYRA M - SUTTON Dog Owner
  • Excellent service - our pet sitter Diana is very friendly and has proven to be very flexible in drop off and collection for our dog Cookie.  

    SANDRA POLHILL - BAGSHOT Dog Owner
  • Many thanks for arranging our 15 month old puppy Baxter's two week holiday, we were all a little anxious about leaving him for so long but with the great care from the lovely Isabel we need not have worried. I would highly recommend Holiday4Dogs efficient services to anyone.

    ANN MCGONIGLE - EPSOM Dog Owner
  • Our friend recommended Barbara and John Keenan to look after our shin tzu Beau when we had two weeks holiday, we were apprehensive as we hadn't left her before , our fears were completely unfounded. While we were away we received pictures and updates which showed a very happy and contented dog. We can't praise Barbara and John enough such a lovely caring couple and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Beau has made two new friends as have we.

    GLORIA TURNBULL - WORCESTER PARK Dog Owner
  • We used Holidays4Dogs after our regular dog carer moved and were so impressed. Our dog carer, Linda, was so accommodating and we know our dog was comfortable staying with her. The online form was very lengthy but anyone owning a pet would rather their potential carers knew every detail about their pet than very little - that way I knew our Hudson was going to be left in capable hands.

    ANGELA B - TWICKENHAM Dog Owner
  • Annie is a rescue dog and scared of most things so we were very anxious about leaving her. She stayed with Jim and Lesley and what lovely people they are. They looked after her so well they sent pictures to us. She was looked after like their own. Couldn't have asked for better people will definitely recommend them. Annie has a new holiday home and we know she liked being with them.   Thank you Lesley and Jim for taking care of our Annie.

    CAROLINE BERNES - CARSHALTON Dog Owner
  • Amazing care for our nervous rescue dog, Sophie, while we were away for two weeks. I was anxious to leave her as she is so utterly dependent on me and is my shadow all day long. I needn't have worried as when we were away she just took to being John's shadow instead! Thank you John and Barbara for such excellent care and all the photo/email updates while we were away.

    JACKIE BOURNE - SURBITON Dog Owner
  • We booked our dog for a 10 day stay, and then discovered we had to go away again for a couple of days 2 days after we came back. Barbara and John went out of their way to accommodate our request and even looked after our dog themselves for a day! We knew that she was with a living couple who spoiled her whilst we were away. Thank you.

    TRACEY GRAHAM - TADWORTH Dog Owner
  • This was the first time we had left our one year old whippet with other people overnight (this was for a one week holiday break). We were very pleased with the service - before, during and after. The chosen carer was a perfect match for our dog. We were kept informed of progress during the stay which was reassuring. We would be very happy to use the service again and won't hesitate to recommend it to other dog owners. We had a good holiday but am sure the dog had an even better one !!

    IAN DOWNES - WORCESTER PARK Dog Owner
  • Very pleased with everything. My sitters were fantastic.

    NICKY BUCKLER Dog Owner
  • I received one on one, tailored help and advice from the area director who was hugely helpful and communicative. The person she paired me with made a fantastic relationship with the dog who now sees him as a dead friend. Would recommend the service to anyone.

    EMILY SUMMERS - PLYMOUTH Dog Owner
  • Our 2 flat coated retrievers have just had the most wonderful week away, whilst we could enjoy our holiday, knowing they were well cared for in a proper home. They met the couple, Alison and Paul, before we went. Seemed to settle in and looked great when we picked them up. We were sent messages on how they were and were emailed some photos which was a very nice touch. We shall definitely use Holidays 4 Dogs in the future

    GINA SALMON - PENZANCE Dog Owner
  • Carol was a very enthusiastic hostess to our rescue dog; she obviously has plenty of experience with dogs and we felt completely happy to leave Nuala with her for a w/e. We have already booked a holiday for her over the Christmas week with Carol, and now that we know things have gone so well we will make a lot more use of Carol's services in the future. I couldn't bear to think of putting Nuala into a noisy kennel, and with her very shaky start in life I know she would hate it - she would think that she had been abandoned all over again. So thank you Carol for giving her a "home away from home" stay!  

    JACKIE LOCKETT - PLYMOUTH Dog Owner
  • This is the first time we have used Holidays4Dogs and we found the process very easy. We couldn't have picked a better carer than Trish and her family. Barney is a very spoilt dog at home and we were concerned how he would settle, but we needn't have worried at all. Trish made him very welcome and he loved running with her dogs. She kept us up to date with texts how Barney was doing and when we picked him up he was running in and out as if he had been there for months. I would have no hesitation in recommending Trish as a carer.

    DAVID AND SHEILA - BARNSTAPLE Dog Owner
  • Thrilled with the care my 2 dogs received. More than happy to recommend this service to other people. I was only surprised that they wanted to come home because they had had such a wonderful time.

    KATE ELSTON - BEAWORTHY Dog Owner
  • We were really pleased with the service we received from Holidays 4 Dogs. The care our dog received was exceptional and we would definitely use them again.

    N. BARTON - CREDITON Dog Owner
  • We have an adored 12 year old blind diabetic polish lowland sheepdog who has only stayed with parents if we had to be away. Because we have moved to Cornwall we realised it was critical we found a carer for the odd night and how lucky we were to find Alison at Holidays4Dogs. She was so kind and understanding of our concerns and found the perfect match in a wonderful Polish lady called Ewa. Lara has stayed twice now and has clearly been loved and adored. No mean feat looking after a blind diabetic dog and Ewa did it perfectly !

    MARIA - FALMOUTH Dog Owner
  • So glad we have found this service cannot rate it highly enough, dogs were thoroughly spoilt a true home from home.

    CARYL WHITE - CREWKERNE Dog Owner
  • Sandra looked after our Cocker Spaniel for the weekend recently and she absolutely loved it. Sandra and her family are clearly dog lovers and went out of their way to make Lily part of the family. Lily enjoyed lots of nice walks and we received regular photographs of the wonderful time that she was having. We would definitely recommend Sandra to others.

    KAREN GILSON - ST AUSTELL Dog Owner
  • We have used Holidays4dogs twice now and both times have been thoroughly enjoyed by Peaches.I can't recommend Sandra enough and will not hesitate to book again.She has 2 King Charles spaniels who were absolutely superb with our miniature dachshund who had been a breeding girl for most of her life before we rescued her. I even received holiday photo's!  

    SHARMAN GOWING - FALMOUTH Dog Owner
  • Rocky`s stay with Su went really well we had a couple of bad experiences with kennels so this was brilliant for us and Rocky it took all the stress of leaving my boy knowing he was going to be looked after by a very caring lady. He came home happy I would gladly leave him again.

    J. TODD - WALLINGFORD Dog Owner
  • I have been reluctant to use kennels of any variety after the grief I experienced having my dog in quarantine for 6 months. Finding Holidays 4 Dogs has been my saviour. Now I have 2 dogs and I have never seen them so happy, settled, loved, and most of all given me peace of mind going on my own holiday. Professional, kind, caring, animal loving families to love your pets as much as you. My dogs didn't want to leave. Very impressed and will use them again.  

    CAROLINE DUFFY - OXFORD Dog Owner
  • Bane and Bella thoroughly enjoyed their stay with Sarah. We always liked the idea of the dogs being able to have a holiday themselves and be well looked after with no stress. We loved that she sent us pictures of them out enjoying their walks and playing in the garden. They were both very happy to see us but don't think they wanted to leave! We will definitely be asking to use Sarah again.

    N. WALLIS - WALLINGFORD Dog Owner
  • We were searching for somewhere to board our Dalmatian 'Poppy' when we had a weekend break. Holidays 4 dogs put us in touch with Samantha and Harvey. Poppy soon settled into their lovely house and Samantha sent us regular texts to let us know how she was getting on. We are booking her in for 3 weeks when we go on our summer holiday and highly recommend using Holidays 4 Dogs to anybody worried about leaving their pets whist holidaying.

    PHILIP CARTER - WITNEY Dog Owner
  • As a dog owner, one of the hardest things in life is placing your pampered pooch in the hands of someone else, to go on holiday. I can honestly say that the moment I met both Jo and Sue, I felt at ease and fully trusted them to care for my 'boy'. He was happy and bright when I picked him up and he will be returning to them in the near future. I can go on holiday and relax in the knowledge that my dog will be loved and cared for like he is at home.

    A. McDOWELL - HENLEY-ON-THAMES Dog Owner
  • This is an excellent service. We boarded our Golden Retriever with two different carers over the last year. Both were clearly dog lovers and had been clearly vetted by the service. Our dog was happy, as were we. .

    MICHAEL GOLLOGLY - ASCOT Dog Owner
  • We have used the service twice with two different dog sitters. Both times we were really happy with the care our dog received. We will certainly be using the service again and would recommend Holidays4Dogs to anyone. So much better than kennels!

    SAM FRENCH - OXFORD Dog Owner
  • I was very happy with the care my dog Sable received. Sophie and her family are very lovely people and I would definitely recommend them and would use their service again as they are caring, considerate and dog loving. Sable came back a happy dog and it's great to know she was well looked after. Thank you!

    KATRINA - WITNEY Dog Owner
  • My 12 year old dog Belle stayed with Sarah for a week in July. She had such a lovely time that she was reluctant to come home again. I was really impressed on the first full day when I received a text message and photos showing that Belle had really settled down and was happy. I have already booked another weeks holiday for Belle and have no problem recommending both Sarah and Holidays4Dogs to others. So much nicer for the dog to be in a home than kennels.

    K. WISDELL - WALLINGFORD Dog Owner
  • Thank you! At really short notice found us a holiday home for our doggy locally. Roxy had a lovely time with Joy and Mick, really lovely people and total peace of mind ... see you for her next holiday ! thank you so much 🙂

    ALAN BENT - WARWICK Dog Owner
  • This must be about the sixth time we've used H4D for Stella, but the first time with Alan and Cath. H4D went to great trouble to find a carer who could accommodate us in peak season, and struck gold with Alan and Cath, who were new to the H4D family. They looked after Stella extremely well so that she was in great form when we picked her up after a week's stay. We will definitely use them again.  

    JOHN GRANT - WARWICK Dog Owner
  • I have left my 2 dogs Molly an 8 yr old Labradoodle and Soulby an 18 month French Bulldog with various carers in the Coventry and Warwickshire area and all have without exception been absolutely brilliant each time keeping me in touch and ensuring I had a very worry free holiday each and every time.

    A. THOMSON - NUNEATON Dog Owner
  • Beth and her family were fantastic with Minnie during her 'getting to know you' weekend. It has completely put our mind at rest that she will be well cared for when we go on a longer holiday in the summer.

    LEESA PAINE - BEDWORTH Dog Owner
  • We used Holidays 4 Dogs in December 2012 and were very satisfied with the service provided. The company responded very quickly, found the perfect carer for our German Shepherd within a day and all the documentation was sent out to us promptly. The whole process was hassle-free and quick. The carer, Veronica, who looked after our dog for a week during Christmas was amazing and sent us regular updates and photos throughout our dog's stay with her. She looked after our dog as if it were her own and this made our holiday away so much more enjoyable, knowing our pet was looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Holidays4Dogs to anyone as an alternative to the kennels. Our dog hates staying in a kennel and always used to come back distressed. Having stayed with Veronica from Holidays4Dogs for a week she nearly didn't want to come back home! I think that says a lot about the company and its carers. We will definitely use Holidays 4 Dogs from now on instead of the kennels.

    KATRI - GLOUCESTER Dog Owner
  • We met our carer Roxy a couple of weeks before hand to ensure that she and Doug got on. The night before we were due to fly, Doug had two fits, Roxy was more than happy to have Doug rather than send him into the vets so that he did not get 'further stressed'. That was the last fit he had and settled into several walks a day. When we collected Doug, although he was ecstatic to see us, he then went to cuddle up to Roxy, I'm not entirely sure he wanted to leave :-). I will certainly be leaving Doug with Roxy again, this was our first holiday together in 5 years as we didn't want to put him into a kennel again. This is well worth the extra money for a much loved pet.

    SUE COSKER - LEOMINSTER Dog Owner
  • We found Holiday4Dogs on Google search and enquired about availability for our two Labradors "Poppy and Theo" whilst we were on holiday.We were immediately contacted and reassured about your Services. Sue from the Forest of Dean was recommended to us and having visited here we were suitably impressed. We knew that "Poppy and Theo" would be well looked after. When we picked them up after our holiday we knew that they had a brilliant time with Sue and would recommend using Holidays4Dogs and Sue again in the future.

    MR & MRS YOUNG - STROUD Dog Owner
  • Thank you Jason for looking after Jasper so well. He has had a lovely time and we have been able to relax knowing that he has been in a home from home. Jasper is definitely missing his girls Bella and Holly so we will be back!!

    CATHY BLACKLER - WORCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Jason was incredibly patient, allaying all my qualms and concerns about finding the perfect 5* holiday home for my new puppy, Inca. I know I can go on holiday now knowing that she will be in a safe, happy and loving environment. Thank you, Holidays4Dogs. My only worry now is that she won't want to come home!!

    ROSIE MURTON - GLOUCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • We have just returned from a few days away and left our beloved Frenchie, Freddie for the first time. We were a bit anxious about it all but we couldn't of been happier with the whole experience. Holidays4Dogs were wonderful at helping us with everything beforehand and Freddie spent a few days with fabulous carers who looked after and loved him like their own dog. We were kept up to date with how he was and sent photographs. In fact we aren't entirely convinced he wanted to come this morning when we collected him! We would not hesitate again to leave him in their capable hands.

    JULIE VALLENDER - GLOUCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Just wanted to let you know that I was very very happy with the care, attention and love that Alfie obviously received from Julie while we were away. She was lovely, I left feeling very confident that Alfie would be OK. He loved his stay so much he didn't want to come home!! Thank you again, I will definitely be using Julie again.

    D. VIVEASH Dog Owner
  • Charlie had his first ever overnight stay with Fran and her husband. Holidays4Dogs were great and helped me as I was running out of time trying to organise Charlie's care. I was travelling from Essex for my sisters wedding and was really worried to leave Charlie. I didn't have to worry as he appeared to have an excellent time and enjoyed being with two other dogs! Thanks to Holidays4Dogs for taking such great care of him and enabling me not worry and instead enjoy myself!

    D. SWINDELL - CLACTON ON SEA Dog Owner
  • First experience of using Holiday4Dogs and would definitely recommend. The service was first class - our dog's holiday family ensured we were kept up to date with how he was doing the whole time. Very much a home from home experience and arranged at fairly short notice. The support and help was fantastic, very professional with everything to ensure the right carer was found. Thank you all - we'll be back!

    RUTH WONG Dog Owner
  • Holidays4Dogs really cares about what's best for your dog, it's not just about the business. They go out of their way to meet yours and your dogs needs. Very professional service. Communication was prompt and helpful. Would not hesitate to recommend to others.

    COLLEEN BRADLEY Dog Owner
  • Absolutely brilliant service! Attention to detail ensured our dog Alfie had a wonderful stay- thank you very much.

    KATE RIPPINGTON Dog Owner
  • It's great to have a reason to go for a walk on the Westwood on a beautiful morning and to have a lovely welcome when I come in. Also great to know we can choose when to have a dog, so we can go away ourselves whenever we want. It's nice to have 'regulars' now - in fact our current 'guest' jumped out of her owner's car and ran to the door, barking to be let in!

    KAY COATES - BEVERLEY Dog Carer
  • I have been a carer with Holidays4Dogs for about 18 months and have to say it's one of the best things I have ever done. It can be a lonely existence being retired and living on your own and being a lifelong dog lover having owned Golden Retrievers,this was the perfect solution. I can have dogs of my choice to stay and at times to suit and have all sorts of breeds. All have been an absolute pleasure to have, and many are now repeat bookings. Everything is provided for their stay by their owners, and you have the piece of mind of H4D backup. I would not hesitate to recommend this to any dog lover. Special mention to Louise Radcliffe, Holidays4Dogs Cambridge and Suffolk who has been superb throughout.

    T. MACKENDER - CAMBRIDGE Dog Carer
  • As a new Carer this year, I very much enjoy having different dogs to stay. All my dogs that have come are having repeat bookings for next year which is great. My grandchildren love having dogs to walk and Nikki at Holidays4Dogs keeps me up to date. I find the online calendar easy to manage.

    RUTH EDWARDS - MILTON KEYNES Dog Carer
  • I love every bit of it! Every dog is different but I love them all. They all have their own personality.

    SONIA - NORTHAMPTONSHIRE Dog Carer
  • I have had a good lot of dogs ,and enjoyed them all. It gets me out and they are good company as I'm on my own.

    LILY OLIVER - TYNE AND WEAR Dog Carer
  • I really enjoy being a carer with Holidays4Dogs and find it very reassuring that there is always someone at the end of the phone at H4D who are able to put my mind at rest that I am doing the right thing. Everyone I have been in touch with at Holidays4Dogs have always been most kind and helpful. I am happy and proud to be part of H4D.

    K. ARTON - EAST YORKSHIRE Dog Carer
  • Holidays4Dogs are an absolutely first class organisation setting very high professional standards covering care of the dogs, consideration of owners' needs, keeping carers informed and well supported.  So thorough and it all makes me feel proud to be a Holidays4Dogs carer.

    DIANA SAMUEL - SURREY Dog Carer
  • Dog caring makes me very happy. I wouldn't like to have a dog full time so this is perfect from my point of view. The owners are lovely people and are always so happy to see that their dogs have been happy here.

    JENNY EVANS - WEST YORKSHIRE Dog Carer
  • It seems some time ago now since I saw that Holidays4Dogs had reached my area and I plucked up the courage to ring. You kindly came out to visit and the rest is history as they say! It did not take long before I had a few bookings, all enjoyable, and since then it has grown so much that I can hardly fit a holiday in for myself!! All "my dogs" are special in their own way and the only sad times for me are on the day that they are leaving.  It is such a rewarding job and I love every minute of it. The owners always tell me that they are pulled all the way to my front door, eager to get here, which is nice to hear. My own dog will be 14 on her next birthday and could not cope with a dog who was wanting her to play all the time so now I accept quiet sociable dogs which suits us both best. It is a lovely experience and I wouldn't change any of it. I am 72 now and I am sure my guest dogs keep me young so I  hope that I can carry on for some time yet, I would so miss them all.  

    M. GARFORTH - NORFOLK Dog Carer
  • l love having these dogs to stay. I have always had dogs of my own so looking after dogs for other people gives me great pleasure, taking them walks and getting to know there little ways.

    BRENDA - WORCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • It's ideal being able to enjoy the dogs but without the full time commitment. I love each and everyone we've had and thankfully they have all come back to us or are doing in the future.

    JACI BARNES - LANCASHIRE
  • Our dog absolutely adores going on her holiday and can't wait to get rid of us at the door so she can get on with her stay! They give her fantastic long walks, play lots of ball and have taken her to the beach and even camping. She comes back so happy and very tired! We sometimes worry she enjoys being there more than at home but then I suppose that is the definition of a 'holiday' 😉 We feel very confident that they know her really well and care loads about her - she is a young rescue dog who has had a few rocky experiences but a great temperament so this is very important to us.

    J. TOWERS - GLASTONBURY Dog Owner
  • Our little dog Frankie has always stayed with friends or family but at times it can be too much to ask, so we found Holidays4Dogs! Cindy took Frankie for a weekend and I'm not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up. Frankie was spoilt rotten, with lots of attention and games during her stay, she came home exhausted but happy. We would highly recommend this service to anyone who worries about leaving their dog behind. We had no concerns leaving Frankie, Cindy was clearly a dog lover herself and enjoyed having our Frankie to stay. Thank you Cindy and thank you Holidays4Dogs! Frankie is looking forward to her next stay with you hopefully soon.

    REBECCA THOMAS - BRISTOL Dog Owner
  • We have used Holidays4dogs twice now and both times have been fantastic holidays for us and Brecon (our dog)! Having someone to give her the love and attention we would give her gives so much peace of mind on those few occasions she can't come with us! Our latest visit with Sue was amazing, Sue sent us photo updates which showed Brecon being completely at home and comfortable with her personality coming through. Be warned both times even though she was excited to see us she thought twice about coming home and leaving her new found family behind!

    M. CARTWRIGHT - BRISTOL Dog Owner
  • We used Holidays4Dogs for the first time very recently. A family member at the last minute was unable to look after our little dog for us which left us with a couple of weeks before going away to find somewhere else for him. We didn't want kennels, instead we wanted something as homely and nice as possible. It was the very first time we have left our little dog and he is like our baby! We came across Holidays4Dogs while doing a google search late in the evening and after looking at the website and the reviews from other people, we decided to give this company a go. First thing the next morning Holidays4Dogs were in contact to talk us through our booking and to help us find the right place and person for our little dog. That seemed such good service. The Carer suggested had a dog of their own and was local to us. After a visit so we could see where our little dog would be staying, so we could decide if it was right for him, we confirmed our booking. We left our little dog for the week while we went away on holiday and it was like he had a little holiday too, in the good company of another dog which we think was a good experience for him and we knew that he would be well looked after. We can't thank Holidays4Dogs enough for this and thank you also Cindy. If you're unsure about giving this company a go, I would say definitely give them a try.

    ADRIENNE - BRISTOL Dog Owner
  • We left our dogs a Great Dane and a Spaniel with William and Christine in Bristol, they enjoyed looking after them both and were comfortable with them in their home and confident with the Great Dane, when we picked them up they were both very happy and we could see they were well cared for. They enjoyed lots of walks and cuddles, Holiday4Dogs were excellent at finding this placement at the last minute, as we were finding it difficult to place the Great Dane, we highly recommend them.

    THERESA NEWMAN - SOMERSET Dog Owner
  • Going on holiday is stressful enough but when it comes to finding the right people to look after your dogs is such a main worry. I searched online for someone who would love my dogs like I do, I found Holidays4Dogs and met a carer who absolutely loved my dogs as if they were his own. It really made me happy to know my dogs were going to have a good holiday. My first experience with Holidays4Dogs was so good, I will definitely use them again.  Thank you so much, hope to see you again soon.

    S. BARGE - CHARD Dog Owner
  • Fabulous service for anyone who is reluctant to use kennels - A really personal, professional service for your dog just like you treat your own dog at home. From a quick chat to assess your dogs needs, likes and dislikes the company then pair you with suitable carers. You then get to visit them and check you are happy with the placement and your dog is happy and also the carers who will be responsible for your dog are happy. Our Labrador was extremely well looked after and I would definitely use this service again 10 out of 10. .

    K. BARTLETT - BEAMINSTER Dog Owner
  • Our Cocker Spaniel, Olly, spent two weeks with Bill, a Holiday4Dogs carer, who looked after Olly as if he were his own. We could tell Olly had a fantastic time with Bill. We would recommend Holidays4Dogs to anyone who wants a home from home for their dog.

    S. BECK - NEWCASTLE ON TYNE Dog Carer
  • We contacted the company, the response was lovely, the visit with our dog’s carer, Helga instantly made us feel at ease and able to look forward to our visit away! So last weekend we went away, left Tilly for 4 days with Helga and she had a lovely time, she'd been walked regularly and off the lead and even went to the beach plus more importantly she'd been cuddled and fussed!

    Mr DOE - DRIFFIELD Dog Owner
  • We would definitely recommend Holidays4Dogs to anyone who has worries about leaving their dog/s at boarding kennels. Holidays4Dogs were very helpful in finding us a holiday home for our dogs at very short notice. The couple who looked after our dogs were clearly dog-lovers, who treated our dogs very well, and I'm pretty sure the dogs enjoyed their trip too!

    ANDY JAMES - DUNSTABLE Dog Owner
  • Left our 1 yo Labrador with Linda from Holidays4Dogs for three days. She was fantastic with him and provided a friendly professional service which we will be using again.  

    NEALE THOMPSON - SUNDERLAND Dog Owner
  • We were stuck at quite short notice to find somewhere for our dog to stay while we were away. Holidays4Dogs were extremely helpful and couldn't do enough to help us. They listened to everything I wanted and found us some lovely carers for our dog. It was a big relief to know that he was happy and well looked after while we were away.

    CLAIRE BAINES - OAKHAM Dog Owner
  • Our Wire Fox Terrier had a fantastic time staying with Paula and Fred. He was made to feel at home from the moment he entered their home. Such a caring, loving friendly couple who are an absolute credit to Holidays4Dogs. .

    MRS LEAD - STEVENAGE Dog Owner
  • My Husband and I really enjoy looking after and caring for the dogs that are on their holidays with us. We have had a number of different types of dogs from Dachshunds to Labradors to Heinz 57, all lovely characters. When we lost our two Shih Tzu's (Mercedes & Jules) I didn't want another dog yet, but this gives us the opportunity to have a dog again by to look after and give their owners peace of mind when they go on holiday. A home environment is so much better than kennels. I know my 2 bubbles would not have survived kennels. I think it is a great idea.

    LIZ - KINGS LYNN Dog Carer
  • We have used Holidays4Dogs for several years for our Cocker Spaniel. We have a small number of regular carers who the Holidays4Dogs team matched us to, who we use for various length stays (weekend breaks through to 6 week holidays). We have complete confidence in the carers who treat our dog with the love they would their own. The professionalism and quality of customer service and support of the business was recently demonstrated when one of our carers sadly fell ill the morning of a booked stay. Within an hour the Holidays4Dogs team had made alternative arrangements with a nearby couple (Ann and Brian) who we had not used previously but were absolutely perfect - our dog had a fabulous stay and formed a lovely bond with the them. I have no hesitation in recommending Holidays4Dogs… they have been a god-send for us as our dog is unable to cope with stays at kennels.

    P. WILSON - YORK Dog Owner
  • Holidays4Dogs went out of their way to find us a suitable dog carer at very short notice when we had to go abroad for a funeral. The carer was clearly a kind dog person and our dogs settled down very quickly. Home from home for our pets. Will definitely use again.

    MR S BOUNDS - NORWICH Dog Owner
  • We felt totally relaxed about leaving our dog with Joan and Holidays4Dogs. We knew instantly that she would be well loved and looked after. We would have no hesitation in recommending her.

    CHRIS HEWETT - BRIDGWATER Dog Owner
  • Leaving my 6 month old puppy for the first time was a huge worry. All my fears were needless after discovering this well run outfit. They understand our concerns and the care he received for nearly 5 days was exceptionally good, so much so that I intend to keep in touch with his carers as Murphy the schnoodle has made friends for life

    SAM GRAHAM - SHEPHERDS BUSH Dog Owner
  • Our Bruno stayed with Ann and her family in lovely surroundings in the countryside. He settled in right away and got loads of cuddles and exercise. We could not be more pleased and if we're going away again we would definitely let Bruno stay with Ann again. Thank you for a great service that comes highly recommended!

    H. KVITVICK - WATFORD Dog Owner
  • My labrador was very happy when I picked her up. I could tell she had been well looked after and enjoyed her holiday in Cathy's lovely home and garden. I was sent messages about what Iris was up to while I was away which was much appreciated. Thank you so much Cathy and Holidays4Dogs. Hopefully Iris can stay with you again next year.

    T. FEATHER - GUNNISLAKE (STAYING IN SCOTLAND) Dog Owner
  • We were going on a family holiday but didn't have anyone to look after our dog, Alfie. We don't trust Kennels and wanted the dog to have the best care when we were on holiday. Holiday4Dogs paired me with a fantastic lady who took care of Alfie and really made us feel that he was loved just the same way as he is at home when we were on holiday. The whole process was very easy and pain free. I will definitely use again.

    MARK CONNOLLY - GLASGOW Dog Owner
  • Everything was so professional and went swimmingly well from the first call to Holiday4Dogs right thru to us collecting Hector after his first stay. Everyone was so helpful/understanding in finding/matching us to the perfect carer in Jo and her special family. Judging from Hector's wagging tail, we were both encouraged and happy that we made the right decision as Jo and her family seemed so caring, so approachable and that gave immediate assurance that Hector was in good hands. We received texts and pics whilst we were away during Hector's second stay and that really made it for us - sooo happy you found Jo for us !! Lovely family and that comes from Hector too!

    MR & MRS REEVE-LEWIS - LONDON Dog Owner
  • Wilma our Miniature Schnauzer has just enjoyed her very first 4 day break away with Jane and George from Holidays4Dogs. Being able to see lots of photos of her having a brilliant time on her numerous walks during her stay with them, we could tell she was loving every minute of it and was obviously very well cared for and loved during our absence. This was really reassuring for us as it's the first time she's been left with people she didn't really know. We wouldn't hesitate to use this fantastic facility again and would definitely recommend it as an alternative to kennels.

    SHIRLEY - RICHMOND Dog Owner
  • Using Holidays4Dogs could not have been easier, becoming a member and the booking process was effortless. It was so refreshing to speak to a company who obviously enjoy what they do and are dog lovers themselves. Being able to meet your prospective carer is a must and not all companies allow this, it’s important not only for you but that your animal feels comfortable and the carer will look after your pet as you would, this allows you to leave them and enjoy peace of mind, which you do not get with a kennel. Our Carers Ann and Les are wonderful, they treat Louie like family and really love having him even if it’s just a weekend. It’s great to know while we are away he is being looked after so well and gets to have different experiences to enjoy.

    SHEILA COULTHARD - HARROW Dog Owner
  • I have always been happy with the service from Holidays4Dogs. Our dog carers Ann and Les take great care of Barney when he visits and I would highly recommend them.

    N. ROWAN - RADLETT Dog Owner
  • It was just so easy to make the booking and payments. Holidays4Dogs were always just a phone call away if I had any questions and our pet sitter was fantastic. I will highly recommended this company.

    L . BAUER - LONDON Dog Owner
  • We can't fault Holidays4Dogs in anyway, great service. Our carers Elaine/Dawn were totally professional and very caring from the word go. Having a look at the carers home before the stays put our minds at rest. We had complete peace of mind while we were away knowing that our elderly dog Bella would be cared for like one of the family. On both pickups, she was happy and healthy. Would highly recommend Holidays4Dogs and will be booking again soon.

    MRS & MRS MELTON - HULL Dog Owner
  • I am not very keen normally to write reviews but felt that on this occasion I would make an exception! As a family we decided we were going to holiday abroad and without having a family member able to look after our 1 year old dog we searched for a suitable temporary home for our beloved Coco. We came across Holidays Dogs and after an impressive initial conversation with Andy we immediately felt confident that Coco would have a suitable home found for her. Andy notified us of Kendra and a 'meet and greet' appointment was made to see whether Coco and Kendra were happy with each other. Once agreed that we could move forward we confirmed details of arrival and departure. Kendra was great from start to finish, she kindly asked whether we wanted progress reports of Coco's stay which we did and always delivered that sought after text message that put a smile on my son's face and allowed him to enjoy his holiday. We collected Coco as agreed and she was in fine fettle, her coat was gleaming, she was happy and whilst excited to see us she was still fussing around Kendra which confirmed to me and my family that we had left her in very capable caring hands. I would without doubt recommend H4D and also Kendra, we have now found a great carer for our beloved Coco and so we will be using H4D and Kendra again.

    J. VERNOUM - HULL Dog Owner
  • Many thanks to Anne and her family for looking after Louie for the weekend. Your text on the first evening was a lovely touch confirming that he had settled in OK. He was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I look forward to seeing you again when we next go away.  

    CHRIS REDFERN - HULL Dog Owner
  • I have an older and sometimes timid small dog She is very much my companion and has always been with me everywhere I go and never been in a kennels. Now I have to make frequent trips to London and I was worried about finding someone to care for her when I am away. I found Holidays4Dogs on the internet and now she goes to a wonderful home where she is loved and cared for as part of the family. She loves going and gets wildly excited as we arrive (like a child going to play with friends). As I leave she hardly looks back and takes pride of place on her own special chair. I have no hesitation in recommending Holidays4Dogs not only for the wonderful caring second home they have provided for my dog but for the efficient and professional way in which they manage their business.

    BROUGH - EAST YORKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Thank you Andy, first class service by your company and thank you Roger for taking great care of Alfie our border collie. He certainly had a great holiday staying with you we know he was well looked after and settled in without any problems. We know Roger enjoyed looking after him and I think he wanted to stay. Highly recommended.

    STEWART SEWELL - DONCASTER Dog Owner
  • Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Holidays4Dogs and in particular Carol and Barry near Scunthorpe, like most people our dogs mean everything to us so having someone that we know will love them and care for them in the same way we do is priceless. We have three dogs and although well behaved it is a lot for anyone but for Carol and Barry nothing is too much trouble, one of ours is a particularly nervous little girl but they give her so much confidence when she is with them and this could only be from the amount of love she is shown in our absence.

    MICHELE CLAY - DONCASTER Dog Owner
  • We used this service recently when we went on holiday. I was a little apprehensive at first, but after listening to us and the type of dog our Cockapoo is we were matched suitably to a lovely carer. Everything was straight forward and easy. We met up with Sheila and get dog beforehand and had lots of opportunities to have any questions and concerns answered. We missed our dog while away but was reassured and happy he was really well looked after by a loving caring person. We had frequent communication, photos etc. while away which was so lovely. I was more than happy with the service and the care given was fantastic. I would recommend to anyone and will certainly be using Holidays4Dogs again.

    LISA LIMON - HULL Dog Owner
  • Needing to arrange some care for my two year old Labrador at quite short notice Andy could not have been more helpful suggesting careers. At our first meeting with Barry and Carol we were made to feel very welcome but it was clear that Juno would be loved and cared for in their home in just the same way as she is at home with us. Juno was pleased to see us when we collected her earlier today but I know for certain where I will want her to stay when we have to be away without her.

    ROSEMARY MCDONACH - BRIGG Dog Owner
  • Excellent…At first I was quite apprehensive as my dog is quite bouncy and excitable so didn't know how another would take to that especially with having an older dog. I would definitely recommend the service especially the carer that we had as she was excellent and will be requesting her again when we go away. We spent time to introduce the dogs over a period of visits (approx.3-4) which I would recommend this to ensure it will be a positive experience to the carer and the dog(s). It was important to us to have someone that we trusted as we wanted to build a relationship with a carer that we trusted and could use on a ongoing basis for both our piece of mind but also so that our dog (Paddy) could build that relationship too so that he felt at ease and comfortable in going to stay there. All round very happy with the service and quality of care provided by the carer was excellent and will definitely be using this again. A BIG Thank you!

    EMMA TOZER - HULL Dog Owner
  • We would like to thank Steve and Kruae so much for looking after Oscar, a great indication that he enjoyed his stay was that when he came home he just slotted back into his normal routine, it was as if we hadn't been away. Oscar is much loved and is one of the family and it is such a massive thing to have peace of mind that he will be looked after so well. When Steve said that he would be happy to look after Oscar in the future, it was just the icing on the cake. The whole experience with Holidays4Dogs from first speaking to Andy to picking up Oscar was first class and we will definitely be using them again without hesitation. Once again thanks to Steve and Kruae for taking such lovely care of Oscar.

    J. HORN - BROUGH Dog Owner
  • The best place for my dog when I am away - Strongly recommended. Faro comes back from his holiday happy, smiley and tired 🙂 This is more than just home boarding for dogs. This is HOLIDAYS 4 DOGS!  Thank you Nicci and Holidays4Dogs.

    RENATA - HULL Dog Owner
  • My dogs were really happy staying with Ann and she treated them as if they were her own. She text me the first evening to let me know they had settled in!

    CATHERINE WALKER - BROUGH Dog Owner
  • Absolutely brilliant holiday for my staffie Rosie. She enjoyed it so much! Chantal is wonderful! Bit afraid to say this as I might lose my holidays cos she's overbooked! The office couldn't be more helpful, bless you all! You've made my holidays guilt free and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

    CHRIS WILLIAMS - ROCHESTER Dog Owner
  • My very first holiday away! I had a brilliant time. Thank you to Polly's carer Carol. I'm truly looking forward to my next holiday can't wait. Also a big big thank you to Jane at Holidays4Dogs Teesside and Darlington who made it all possible . Even with the short notice Carol was able to accommodate my beautiful princess Polly THANK YOU.

    C. PAINTER - GUISBOROUGH Dog Owner
  • We needed to find someone to look after our lovely Shi-poo puppy Poppet for three days during my daughter's wedding. I can't rate both the organisation and the people who looked after Poppet (Graham and Helen) highly enough. The signing up process was simple and the whole booking efficiently managed, and it was lovely to be able to meet Graham and see where and who Poppet would be staying with - this gave us both real peace of mind! I also liked that Poppet stayed with them on a one-one basis, no kennel, no cages and a home from home. Thank you!

    KAREN HOPKINS - ST LEONARDS ON SEA Dog Owner
  • Holidays4Dogs found us a home for the weekend for our dog at short notice. The lady who took him was very caring and flexible - Great service!

    ZAHED IKRAM - HORSHAM Dog Owner
  • Holidays4Dogs provides good homes where friendly, animal loving carers look after your dogs in their own homes.

    FRANCES SMITH - SHEWSBURY Dog Owner
  • Our dog's carer Carole was absolutely fantastic!! She sent me nightly photos of my dog Lucie to me over my phone to show me how she was doing. Giving me complete piece of mind thank you so much Holidayfordogs.

    DAVID PERKINS - WORCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • I recently joined up with Holidays4Dogs as my older dog (10 years old) has never stayed in a kennels and I also have a six month old dachshund so I was keen for them both to be looked after in someone's home. I am delighted to say that Jed and Charlie enjoyed a two day break at Rita and Robert's home and I know they had a lovely time, a large garden to run around in, a lovely home to explore and the bonus of two other dogs (their own) to play with. Happy dogs - happy me!

    P. MELTON - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • We used Holidays4Dogs for our 2 dogs when we went away for a week in January. I would not hesitate to recommend the service and in particular Robert and Rita who I could not fault. They were perfect carers for our two dogs and I particularly appreciated their updates while we were away, allowing us to relax knowing the dogs were happy. I look forward to using them again in the future.

    C. STRICKLAND - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Jackie looked after our Boxer Henry when we were on holiday for a week and also a couple of overnight stays. Henry was whining to get in to see Jackie and her family when we drove up as he has great fun there and is so well looked after. It makes such a difference to us to go on holiday and know we don't have to worry about leaving Henry. Jackie and her family are so good to Henry and he gets on with their greyhound Vixen. We would definitely recommend Jackie as a carer as she was able to look after a lively boxer who is raw fed as well, and take it all in her stride.

    M. CUTHERBERTSON - WOODBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • From start to finish dealing with Holidays4Dogs was really good. Louise was really helpful and friendly on the phone and understood how soppy I am about my dogs. I was found the perfect match for a carer in Stephanie, who along with her family welcomed my two into their home, and cared for them exceptionally. They even kept me up to date with photos whilst I was away. I couldn't recommend them more.

    LAURA HUDSON - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Was very happy with both my dogs being looked after at Lesley's home. She looked after them both very well. I will definitely use this site again. I wouldn't put my dogs in kennels again after Lesley looking after them. Thanks again.

    J. FARRELL - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • I will never use kennels again, my first experience with Holidays4Dogs has been very good. Our dog Sophie is with us all day, every day on the farm but thanks to Lesley who looked after her for a week she was not so lonely when we went away. I would highly recommend the service, or did I get lucky with a lady who has a love for dogs.

    BRIAN SUTTON - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Carole was absolutely fantastic!! She sent me nightly photos of my dog Lucie to me over my phone to show me how she was doing. Giving me complete piece of mind thank you so much Holidays4Dogs.

    MR. D. PERKINS - WORCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Excellent company to deal with, put me at ease every step of the way and produced a 5* service! Joan is an impeccable carer and wonderful person. Would highly recommend her and Holidays4Dogs to anyone!

    JESSICA - ANN GOUGH - BROMSGROVE Dog Owner
  • I was apprehensive as it was the first time in nearly 9 years we had left Tommy with anyone except immediate family (kids that had lived at home previously when Tommy was a pup), in fact it was the first time I had used anybody other than family to look after any dog. Although I had texts to confirm he was alright, which was really helpful., when I went to collect him - I knew he was very happy. Would take him again no issues whatsoever, he had a fantastic 5* home while we were away and he was allowed to sleep on the settee too.

    LESLEY REES - WORCESTER Dog Owner
  • Replied to my enquiry quickly and were able to find a carer at short notice. The lady was lovely and looked after my dogs extremely well. Would use this service again.

    SALLY KNIGHT - REDDITCH Dog Owner
  • Reliable company with a pleasant and friendly service. You can feel confident that your pet will be looked after well as all sitters are vetted and periodically reviewed .  

    MRS M POLLER - EVESHAM Dog Owner
  • Highly recommend Max had a lovely time.

    A. HUMPHRIS - WORCESTERSHIRE Dog Owner
  • I had previously used kennels occasionally when having to go away without my canine companion. The experience was 'ok' but lacking the personal touch and knowing that my dog would be receiving walks, cuddles and a home-from-home stay. This I have found in Holidays4Dogs! Nikki in north Oxon & Bucks has been so helpful and the carers first class.

    RACHEL WARD - OXFORDSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Perfectly matched, obvious that Bonny is very happy, have booked twice more. We can enjoy our time knowing the dog is well cared for.

    JEANETTE ROFFEY - MILTON KEYNES Dog Owner
  • So very happy with the staff for their efficiency and helpfulness and their compassion when one of my best friends passed away. Thank you.

    MR & MRS VERDEE - BERWICKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • Wonderful carer, very down to earth and looked after our dog brilliantly. Very easy to organise. Will definitely use Holidays4Dogs again!

    LISA FASS - ABINGDON Dog Owner
  • We were really impressed with both Holidays4Dogs and Roz’s care for Ruskin. He obviously had a lovely time with Sasha and Roz and it was very reassuring to get a couple of photos early on in the week as it was the first time we had left him with a stranger. We’ll be hoping to use Roz again if possible and have already recommended the company to several friends with dogs.

    HELEN RAWSTRON - WANTAGE Dog Owner
  • Genius service! Total peace of mind for that special furbaby in your family, being cared for in a safe home from home.

    LEE WATSON - WINDSOR Dog Owner
  • My dogs jump out of the car and run into Roger's house with excited every time we take them there. I have no hesitation that they are well cared for and I wouldn't leave them anywhere else.

    DEANNE WHITE - OXFORDSHIRE Dog Owner
  • I needed a carer at the last minute for my little dog Bentley and I couldn't fault the help that Holidays4Dogs gave me. Friendly, helpful, polite and very efficient. I would highly recommend them and will most definitely be using them again in the future!

    REBECCA HOWARD - WOKINGHAM Dog Owner
  • Our dog carer Gloria was fantastic with our little dog Rocky. He was extremely well looked after and clearly had a great holiday! Gloria sent us pictures and updates everyday and you could see how well he was being looked after. It is so much better and more personal than a kennel. I had to drop Rocky off extremely early (around 6 a.m.) as well, and Gloria was nothing but accommodating. Would highly recommend Holidays4Dogs and I would highly recommend Gloria!

    S. MCLOUGHLIN - THAMES VALLEY Dog Owner
  • Very happy with the care they provide for my dog would definitely recommend Holidays4Dogs to family and friends thanks.

    KAREN GODBOLD - LONDON Dog Owner
  • I received a first class service, and am happy to use Holidays4Dogs in future.

    M. ALVINO - WEMBLEY Dog Owner
  • Easy to use, reliable boarder - very happy.

    A. GEORGAKAKOS - SURREY Dog Owner
  • My dog Phoebe has stayed twice with a very caring family. They enjoyed having her and she came home in excellent condition. I like the idea if an interview first so that Carer and owner can make sure both parties can get on. Phoebe is already booked in again for another stay with Holidays4Dogs.

    JUDITH CHARLES - LONDON Dog Owner
  • We have used Holidays4Dogs twice and can go on holiday knowing that our dog is happy with her carers, Joy and Mike. We recommended the company to our daughter for her dog and she was happy with the care that her dog received.

    J. HITCHCO - COVENTRY Dog Owner
  • Diesel is a rescue dog and is very anxious around other dogs. Holidays4Dogs has found the perfect place for him to go whilst we travel. It's well worth taking the time to fill out the forms in detail. Diesy's carer is fabulous and we can now go on our hols with no reservations or worries. We have recommended this company to many friends and will continue to do so. Many thanks to all and especially to Diesy's Auntie M.

    MRS B. CRAIG - WARWICKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • We feel as if our mini schnauzer was treated as one of the family. The booking process was easy and we were kept fully informed all the way through the process, easy to use website.  

    M. WARNER - NUNEATON Dog Owner
  • We've used Holidays4Dogs three times now since moving into Warwickshire. Each time our 13 year old golden retriever has been happy with her carers.

    S . RACK - WARWICK Dog Owner
  • We left Minnie with Beth and her family for 12 days in the summer. It was hard to leave Minnie as she is such a big part of our family but I know she was loved just as much by Beth. She was so reassuring and listened to all my silly worries. She text regularly to let us know what Minnie was up to and I felt completely at ease knowing Minnie was being so well cared for. The 'matching 'process was extremely thorough and I knew that we had found the right place for Minnie. I have recommended Holidays4Dogs to other friends already, one of whom has used it's services and has also enjoyed a relaxing break knowing her four legged friend was being so well cared for.

    L. PAINE - WARWICKSHIRE Dog Owner
  • It is due to the trust and confidence that I can leave my Chica in the hands of Holidays4Dogs carers that I have had worry free holidays since 3 years. The carers are committed, experienced dog lovers. Couldn't be happier.

    E. MANNION - LEAMINGTON SPA Dog Owner
  • Left our two Labradors with Deana for 8 days and couldn't be happier, they loved it and Deana was great with them. Caring and living and treated them the same as if they were at home. Highly recommend.

    HESTER SELBY - RETFORD Dog Owner
  • We would like to Thank Roz and Colin and Henley for looking after our little Frank over Christmas and New Year . Home from home and they even let him sleep on their bed ..truly spoilt!

    J. WILSON - RICHMOND Dog Owner
  • Poppy had never stayed away from home before with strangers. From the moment I subscribed to the service and provided the details of my dog's desires to the moment she visited her holiday home, the service was exceptional. She stayed for four days between Christmas and New Year and totally enjoyed herself. She was well looked after, had plenty of walks, enjoyed the company of the Carers dog Vixen and much fuss from the family. I cannot fault the whole process and will always use this option in the future.

    D. PURVES - STOWMARKET Dog owner
  • Pat and Alan and their 2 dogs made my dog very welcome over Christmas and the New Year. They have a great home, perfect for dogs with a lovely garden, conservatory where the dogs can chill on the sofas, and a large utility room where they dry off after walks and sleep. We did two short stays prior to my holiday and now when my dog recognizes where she is, she gets so excited. Pat and Alan really treat my dog as part of their family. I am so glad I found them.

    S. JOHN - HAVERHILL Dog Owner
  • Have used Holidays4Dogs on a couple of occasions now and my dog has always received the best care, which means I can go away with peace of mind! Fantastic service and will use again when required!

    S. HOWELL - PLYMOUTH Dog Owner
  • We were very pleased that our little Bijon Frieze, 'Mitzi' was placed with a nice gentleman Jeremy who lived only half a mile away. She immediately settled down in her temporary home and according to Jeremy was a delight. Very pleased with the service with Alison Harper at the helm, will be happy to use the service in the future. Thankyou.

    JOHN CHATWIN - PLYMOUTH Dog Owner
  • Freddy stayed with Lynda and John Terry and was spoilt rotten on his holiday, going on daily, lengthy walks exploring new places. Freddy was loved and cared for as if he was their own. I received regular updates and photos, which was lovely for us to see him happy. Freddy will be returning soon and we know that he will immediately settle with Lynda and John, we couldn't have asked for better 'temporary parents'.

    P. ULYETT - STALYBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • We left our 2 year old dog for just over a week, his first experience of being cared for out of his own home. He received fantastic care. The carer went above and beyond expectation. He came home happy, and with a clean bed! Would definitely recommend and use again.

    N. PINK - CIRENCESTER Dog Owner
  • First class service. Two dogs one of which is a puppy not always easy to place, Sitter was very experienced and helpful. Will definitely use again.

    MRS P. RUTTY - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Absolutely delighted with the care, love and attention that my dog received whilst staying with Mike and Jean. My dog is an older rescue dog and I admit I was nervous about leaving him but Jean completely reassured me and sent me texts whilst we were away. When we collected him I could tell he was happy and would happily have stayed longer. We will definitely be using them again.

    A. CLAGUE - PONTYPOOL Dog Owner
  • My two dogs (Sprout and Nelly) recently holidayed with Melanie in North Yorkshire.  They had a wonderful time and Melanie was fabulous - sending me updates and photos and generally spoiling them rotten with walks along the riverbank!  I have told many people about your brilliant service which not only looks after my dogs but gives me peace of mind as well. Thank you very much and I would have no hesitation using you and Melanie's doggysitting talents again!

    MRS V. MARSDEN - PICKERING Dog Owner
  • Thank you so much for all your help and information. You run a great service and we are very happy to have found you!  

    EMMA - SUDBURY Dog Owner
  • My husband and I were delighted at the care our dog Amber received whist staying with Lynne. We would rate her as 10 out of 10!  She was especially thoughtful at letting us know how Amber was settling in as she knew we were anxious about leaving her for such a long period (almost 3 weeks).  I would definitely have no reservations about Amber returning to Lynne for future stays. Being able to access carers calendars direct is very useful

    MRS. J. HIGGIT - STOCKTON Dog Owner
  • We couldn't fault anything. Both visits have been stress free for all with Marley settling very well (in fact he sulks when he returns home!). Trish has been very welcoming on each occasion and has never minded keeping us updated through a quick text message to say Marley is having fun. Nothing to fault and finding Trish through you and your website truly has been a blessing in that we can go away knowing Marley is being well cared for. Thank you. Great service all round!

    DEBBIE RICHARDS - CREDITON Dog Owner
  • How thrilled we are that Rachel is looking after Fudge! She jumped out of the car today so excited to be back there again I had no qualms about leaving her at all. Rachel sent us numerous pictures whilst we were away  last week and we could see how happy she was. In fact Rachel said to bring her as early as possible today as they loved having her. Thank you for finding such a good match.

    SUE HARTLEY - NORTHANTS Dog Owner
  • Jane Dunn has been absolutely fantastic supporting our family find appropriate accommodation for our Pip. He was always spoilt and never seemed unsettled when returned from holiday.

    JULIE ROE - STOCKTON ON TEES Dog Owner
  • Jane and George were absolutely wonderful looking after Emily for the week. She was so happy with them that she wasn't in any rush to go home. Definitely a good sign of how well they have treated her. 100% recommendation from me!

    J. STURMAN - COULBY NEWHAM Dog Owner
  • Lynn is an absolutely lovely dog sitter, I trust her 100% with my two dogs. They are both terriers with lots of personality quirks but Lynn loves them both and brings out the best in them. She sends us lovely pictures and videos so we don't miss them too much on holiday and they always look happy and contented and are playing together in the videos so we can rest assured they are having a nice holiday themselves.

    KELLY BAKER - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Toffee was made very welcome and looked after well. Ann and Robert looked after him extremely well so that he can have an enjoyable holiday at the same time as us. They are a very approachable and friendly family. Louise of Holidays4dogs is also very helpful and answered our questions immediately and helped ensure Toffee was able to go to the same boarders as before.

    K. LEISER - CAMBRIDGE Dog Owner
  • I was a bit worried about leaving my somewhat highly strung Border Collie, Ted, but I needn't have been as he had a wonderful time with the lovely Ann, her family and dog, Misty. Ann says he behaved himself (despite peeing in the house the moment we arrived!) and would happily have him again. I have no hesitation in recommending Ann as a carer and also Louise who did a fantastic job pairing us up. This is a great company as they actually do care about dogs.

    MRS L. CASSIDY - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • My experience was great and the dog carer Pat is wonderful, she and her husband are very nice people and took great care of my pup.

    A ELIZARDO - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Sandra was amazing! I left my dog with her full of trepidation as I wondered how he would be in a strange home. He normally stays with friends but I should not have worried. When we came back Robbie was so relaxed and happy he was very well groomed which showed that he had been groomed every day (more than I am able to do leading a busy life) He was even given a new toy which he proudly presented to us. Sandra let him sleep on the couch and said he had been a very good boy enjoyed his walks. I would happily recommend Sandra she is a lovely caring lady.

    S. CLARE - BURY ST EDMUNDS Dog Owner
  • Used this service for the first time over the Christmas period for my 3 dogs. I can honestly say I was very happy to leave my girls with Ann & her family, my 3 dogs where happy when I left them & just as happy when I picked them up. I wouldn’t hesitate to use this service again & would highly recommend to all my friends looking for a holiday for their fur babies.

    VICKY MURRELL Dog Owner
  • Gill & Russ cared for our lovely but bit bonkers Cockapoo Ken for two weeks. A lovely couple who cared for Ken like their very own. They kept us informed frequently how he was doing & regular pictures which is so reassuring. Would hesitate in sending Ken back....in fact we may have to as he's missing them!!

    L. LIMON Dog Owner
  • Lilly stayed with Caz and John and absolutely loved it! We didn't have any worries about if she was okay as it was her first time away from us. The family looked after Lilly as if she were their one of their own and all said how much of a lovely weekend they had with her. I will definitely be taking Lilly to have some more sleepovers at her new holiday home in the near future!

    E. DICKINSON - KNOTTINGLEY Dog Owner
  • We needed care for 2 puppies at short notice and they couldn't have been more helpful definitely would recommend this service and I will be using again.

    MRS HOLMES - PONTEFRACT Dog Owner
  • A fantastic service couldn't recommend them enough. Its not easy finding holiday accommodation for 3 dogs but they were looked after perfectly especially our old lady. We are planning a longer break away already. We were kept up to date via text message to let us know they had settled in well.

    D. RICHMOND - RETFORD Dog Owner
  • 5* Ian and Julia Are lovely people, we have no problems when we leave our dogs, when we get at of our car they drag us to the door!

    B. OAKLEY - BARNSLEY Dog Owner
  • Our 2 Cockerpoo's went to stay with Ian and Julie and I felt really happy leaving them in their care. They loved it there, lovely big garden for them to run around in, they were so chilled when they got home. Would definitely recommend them and Holidays4Dogs.

    MRS J. HOLMES - PONTEFRACT Dog Owner
  • We love our dogs and didn't want to put them in kennels as we felt it would stress them and not get enough exercise. Holiday Dogs found us the perfect family where they don't want to come home with us. They get spoilt with lots of exercise, love, fuss and company. We can go away knowing the dogs are well cared for and safe.

    SUE JONES - SHEFFIELD Dog Owner
  • Charlie was very well looked after and had an absolute ball with his new doggy friends!!

    ALISON WESTON - ROTHERHAM Dog Owner
  • Topics were broken down so that even those with no education in this field can understand it. I feel more equipped to deal with any emergency that arises with my own dogs and I enjoyed the relaxed way I was able to complete this course without any pressure or deadlines. Thank you Caroline!

    Layla Canine First Aid Course
  • I found the course covers a nice range of topics, with lots of information without being too wordy so it doesn’t get dull. I liked that it was broken up by videos and plenty of self assessments. Useful links to other websites as well, I learnt some new things which would be beneficial for my own dog!
