Our second sitting from Marie and Carey…

Our second sitting from Marie and Carey at Dexter and Mee. We have a miniature dachshund with diabetes. He’s also had cataract surgery and requires eye drops daily. He’s also suffered from Pancreatitis and has to follow a strict diet. We also have an elderly dog who is deaf. Both dogs are so happy and settled with Marie and Carey. They are kept to our routine so the dogs don’t get stressed or confused. There has been no problems with the injections or eye drops. The daily updates and photos are extremely reassuring and Marie will proactively contact you if she has any questions or concerns. She noticed one of our dogs had a lump on the side of her mouth and messaged to see if we wanted her to take the dog to the vet. We know our dogs are in safe, professional hands. This is a very different experience to leaving your dog with a friend as your dog is their sole focus whilst you are away. I wouldn’t leave our dogs with anyone else.

Carey is absolutely amazing

Carey is absolutely amazing, she took the best care our of three doggies while we recently went away for 6 days. They can bark when they are nervous but Carey took it in her stride and reassured them and gave them the time and care they needed. The updates were so informative, funny and reassuring and I looked forward to them each day, finding out what my boys were up to. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and have already booked in lots more dates. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Carey and Dexter and Mee. The behind the scenes work of Marie should also be mentioned. The process was slick and easy and she runs the business like a well oiled machine.
Thank you so much, I am so happy to have found this company.

Marie was amazing with my dog

Marie was amazing with my dog , who is very anxious. I couldn’t believe how quickly she put him at ease. She was so patient with him, giving him lots of attention , playing with his toys and fussing him. He was soon relaxed and happy.
My dog has serious eye problems and needs eye medication three times a day . He gets very stressed about this resulting in him becoming incredibly difficult to handle. The last few years has been so difficult because of this. Marie was fantastic. She managed to administer his medications without any upset at all. A moment I never thought would happen. He was golden. I was so emotional. By the end of the afternoon he was kissing Marie and snuggling up to her. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I feel that I can now ( for the first time in years)make some plans knowing that my precious boys needs will be met and that he will be cared for and loved so much by Marie.
Truly amazing!

Carey Halliday met with me when I was needing a sitter for my boy Duke who is very anxious about meeting new people. She manged to gain his trust really quickly and he really trusted her. I would highly recommend her and I would definitely be using her again and Duke would agree with me

Five Star Home sitting for dogs with medical needs ……..

I can’t recommend Marie highly enough- especially if you have a dog with diabetes. My border terrier has multiple health issues including diabetes and this requires careful management. This is the first time I have left him since being diagnosed. From the start, Marie completely put my mind at ease. Her knowledge and confidence was so reassuring and it was clear to see Pepe was in safe hands. Marie was fantastic with his insulin routine, feeding schedule and administering his other meds. What really stood out were the pupdates and photos - they honestly made such a difference. Seeing Pepe happy and relaxed meant the world to me and allowed me to properly switch off. It’s such a relief to have found someone who truly understands diabetic care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Marie again and can wholeheartedly recommend ❤️

We had Marie again for a weeks holiday…

We had Marie again for a weeks holiday abroad, she looked after our Ronnie with such love and care and also our home too, to find someone you can trust is so important and we have certainly found that in Marie, she gives regular updates with lots of photos, she's so confident in giving him his injections and eye drops and he had some lovely walks, we can then relax knowing his in safe hands.... Highly recommend

Expert care for our diabetic dog

We can’t thank Marie enough for stepping in last minute and taking such wonderful care of our newly diagnosed diabetic dog (Blossom).

Marie was incredibly attentive, calm, and confident in managing Blossoms needs, which gave us complete peace of mind. Marie provided frequent updates and lots of photos whilst we were away.

Marie stayed at our house which we were nervous about initially, but there was no need. Marie treated our house with respect and arrived fully self sufficient, and even put our bins out!

When we returned Marie also gave us lots of information and advice about managing diabetes, which really helped.

It’s clear Marie truly cares, and we felt so comforted knowing Blossom was in such loving and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marie, especially for dogs who need extra medical care.

Total reassurance

We had Marie to look after our boys for 2 nights and they had the best time! Marie came over to meet Jez who is a nervous dog before hand and we have never seen him respond so quickly to someone he didn’t know, this gave us total reassurance in Marie. We got regular updates from the boys (Marie helped them with their spelling!) and they just had a chiller time with her. Would highly recommend and use again

Marie is an incredible dog sitter for extra needs dogs!

Marie recently dog sat for our dog Axle who was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease which affected his spinal cord and caused him to lose use of his back legs. Luckily he’s regained some use of his legs through strong medication, physio and lots of love!

Let me tell you, Marie is absolutely AMAZING! She made us feel so at ease and absolutely nothing is too much for her! We cannot recommend her enough! If you ever need a dog sitter, look no further than Marie! She clearly knows her stuff and is so experienced with dogs with extra needs!

We’ve just booked her again for November and we already know Axle can’t wait to spend time with her again!

We’ve had our first stress free holiday in years.

We have used Marie (Dexter and Mee) twice and have booked her in for a third time. She is brilliant with our dog, Sid, who has several health issues including Diabetes and she manages them all expertly and with great empathy. Sid really is at ease with her. Our daily text/video updates are informative and fun.
We would highly recommend Marie if you want a stress free break.
