"Once again, many thanks for looking after our cat (Peaches) during our recent holiday. I have no hesitation in recommending your service to all of my friends. Your service was extremely professional and on our return we could tell our cat had been looked after very well. We will be in contact very soon regarding our holiday in late September."

Mr & Mrs Bills, Wardley

 

"We were so pleased with the service we received from Rob when Barnie our Lhasa Apso recently boarded with Rob whilst we were on holiday for 3 weeks. He was so happy and settled he was in no rush to leave!! Enjoying walks to the beach and even staking a claim on Rob's bed!! We have no hesitation in recommending Rob for any of his pet services and intend to book for next Summer."

The Scott Family, Boldon

 

"We have a seven and a half month old Springer Spaniel who was basicaly nervous, destructive and "clingy", with our holiday abroad approaching, boarding was paramount. We decided on Rob because it was home boarding and I have to say we couldn't have made a better choice. When we collected Harriet she was completely at home, in fact she looked like she wanted to stay. She was with Rob for twenty nights and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. I would strongly recommend him to anyone needing their dog to be placed in a loving, caring environment. Harriets photos were great Rob, many thanks.

Best regards, Dave and Norma Wilson, South Shields

 

"I have two rescue dogs (Megan and Molly) one of which came from a background of ill treatment. Both are now used to a life of comfort and have swapped cages and starvation for a sofa and a life of luxury.

It's important for me that my dogs are looked after and receive the same level of care and attention as I give them, that's difficult to achieve I think because I really do spoil them. I didn't want to leave my dogs in kennels, nor was I keen leaving them with someone I didn't know, but after meeting up with Rob I knew instantly he was a genuine animal lover and wouldn't mind giving up his sofa so my dogs could stretch out on it.

Megan is a bit reserved and can sometimes need a bit coaxing, badly treated by a male owner before she came to me, she can still be a bit nervous around males she doesn't know, but not so with Rob, she wags her tail when she sees him.

Rob has walked my dogs a couple of times now and also boarded them, with more dates in his diary for them to stay over, that would not have happened if I had even the slightest question over the care he provided.

A professional, caring and responsible pet lover who treats other peoples pets as part of his own family, I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob to anyone needing their pets looking after.

Check out the portraits on Robs website.....a bunch of happy, contented pooches, the camera doesn't lie remember."

Maria, Megan and Mollys mum, South Shields

 

"This is the first time I've used Rob to look after my girls, Molly and Tess, but we will definitely be using his services again. The last time we went away they were in kennels and they were so withdrawn when we picked them up. Not this time, they were with your family and well looked after, just like being at home. Thank you so much, well worth the money for peace of mind."

Shelly Cleugh, South Shields

 

"Thanks for helping with my dads dog Rob, your help was very much appreciated and I won't hesitate to recommend your services to anyone".

Shaun Smith, South Shields

 

"Thank you for looking after me. I had a great time playing with the other dogs and your family. Sorry about the mess on the floor! Skippy".

Ian Prince, South Shields

 

"Just to say thank you for looking after my two Cavaliers while I was away for a few days. It was a relief to know they were in familiar surroundings and still having their walks. Thanks once again".

Angela Romero, South Shields

 

"Thank you for looking after Suki and Prince, both were very well cared for and came home happy dogs. I would recommend Rob to everyone to look after their dogs, I will definately leave them in Robs care again".

Georgina Rayner, North Shields

 

"It is always hard leaving your pets to go on holiday, especially with someone you don't know, but for anyone thinking about booking with Rob, from walking through the door and meeting him and his family and other furry guests, I felt comfortable that Rory would be taken good care of. Rory must have had lots of fun because he is 'zonked' out on the sofa beside me!"

Janet Jackson, South Shields

 

"Dear Rob, many thanks for taking such good care of Hazel. Clearly she was happy to be kept at home instead of a cattery. We got home early Monday evening and guess who turned up at the back door at feeding time? Our stray! He too looked fit and healthy so double thanks.

Going to the tip was not part of your job description. I much appreciate your thoughtfulness, but be careful as some people will take advantage of your good nature! I've enclosed a small cheque as a token of my gratitude. I'll recommend you any time. Thanks again".

Maureen Stokes, South Shields

 

"Thank you again for taking wonderful care of Bailey. She has slept since she got home, she obviously had a ball! We will be sure to use your services again and strongly recommend you".

Samantha Levy, Hebburn

 

"Many thanks to Rob and his lovely family for caring for our Doberman Max while we went on holiday.

Max has many physical health problems and requires daily medication; he also likes his home comforts and this certainly was not a problem. Max was welcomed into their home and cared for in a professional and caring manner, like he was a member of their own family.

Rob has the patience of a SAINT. Having previously placed Max in boarding kennels which he did not like and we hated leaving him, he would always return home very distressed and it would take us a while to calm him down. However, after we collected Max from Rob he was so relaxed he nearly fell over which was a joy for us to see.

I would recommend Rob to any pet owner who wants a professional, high standard of care in a home from home environment and who knows how to make your pet feel loved and welcome. Thank you so much, we will definately see you again next year."

Thanks for taking good care of me Rob, big paw hugs from Max xxxxx

Kind regards,

Paul and Cath Edmed, South Shields

 

Hi Rob,

Just a quick email to say how grateful we both were for taking such good care of Coco at such short notice last week. She slept all day on Thursday she was exhausted! Would it be possible to book her in again sometime within the next few weeks for a couple of nights as it's a bit stressful with me being on nightshift. It would make my life somewhat easier knowing you were caring her for whilst we face up to a daunting few weeks.

Mr and Mrs Brown, Gateshead

 

Hi Rob,

Bandit and Billy love stopping with you and your family and I have peace of mind knowing my dogs are well looked after. Might see you soon.

Joan Gilmore, Jarrow

Yet another wonderful holiday for my girls this year. Thanks to Rob and family the dogs are truly shattered!!

Clair Seago, South Shields

 

Theo loves daycare and boarding with Rob and his family - time to socialise and also chillax - both the physical and mental stimulation he needs to be a well rounded pooch x x

Anna Porter, South Shields

 

Thank you for looking after my boy for 2 weeks. I felt at ease and got updates when I needed and got one happy boy back. Will be using again soon.

Lucy Parkinson, Hebburn

 

A huge thank you to Rob and his family for taking such good care of our little pug, Louie. He's come home absolutely shattered from playing with the other dogs, he loves his holidays with Rob! 5 star service - thank you!
