Our carer
Our carer , Mike, has been outstanding in his standard of care , and has clearly formed a strong bond of affection and friendship with Milo, looking after him multiple times over the past 18months.
My only criticism is that Holidays 4 Dogs are rarely at the end of the phone, and call backs need to improve without having to resort going through the carer to get a response.

Xolo and Cinnamon's fabulous holiday
A huge thank you to Jackie and Mike for taking excellent care of our canines for 5 days. We had regular updates and lovey photos. Plus points for us are the amount of time that Jackie and Mike can give to Xolo and Cinnamon. The wonderful countryside walks right on their doorstep and a good sized, secure garden for fun and games. We wouldn't hesitate to ask them to look after our dogs again.

Holiday4dogs gave such a great experience as always, unfortunately a carer was unable to look after our dog due to other commitments, however holidays4dogs were very quick to find an alternative carer. Ian and Julie were brilliant! They loved Buzz like their own and sent us so many pictures and videos and we knew he was being very well looked after. We will absolutely use Ian and Julie again to look after Buzz and I already know he will be excited to see them.

Thanks so much for your review. We know how important it is to have the correct carer for your dogs and will always work very hard to find alternative care should you need this. Ian & Julie are wonderful carers and we know they loved having Buzz stay for his holiday 🐾
Great carer
Holidays4Dogs worked hard to find a replacement carer when our original carer had an accident. We couldn't have been happier with Caroline as our new carer. Finn is quite a nervous dog but he was so welcomed by Caroline and family (including Ralph their dog) that he settled really quickly. Caroline sent plenty of updates and we could see how happy Finn was from day 1. We will certainly be using Caroline again in the future.

Susan looked after our dog Woody for the day while we attended a wedding, and she was absolutely wonderful. Her location was perfect, and her facilities were ideal for Woody. We met Susan and her dogs beforehand to make sure everyone got along, and they did perfectly. Susan was confident, kind, and always easy to contact. Woody was clearly very well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommended!

Puppy's first stay away from home
It was the first time leaving our 8 month old puppy but the whole experience was great. Our carers Steve and Lucy were fantastic and we can highly recommend them. Our dog had a fabulous few days and we would definitely book Steve and Lucy again.

Peace of mind
We both feel Archie our 3 year old Border Collie is well cared for, we felt confident in the care he received whilst in Ian&Julies care. They obviously love what they do caring for dogs and it is reassuring to know that your dog is made to feel welcome and now enjoys going back again.

Summer holiday stay.
Our dog soon settled in as he knew the carers from previous stays. I knew he would be well cared for and his medication needs catered for.

Peace of Mind .
Process was easy to follow . Supported in finding a carer that suited my doggy .
Good correspondence.
Caroline was a fabulous carer . She took great care of Nigel . She was happy to oblige with Nigel's little issues such as stealing food and rummaging in handbags , though he did manage to steal a bagel 😆 .
She kept in touch with photos and messages .
I knew he was in good hands .
Nigel bonded well with her daughter's and even slept with her dog Ralph when Nigel took a liking to his bed .(Sorry Ralph )
I felt peace if mind being away knowing he was in good care .
