Mal took such good care of our best friend whilst we were away, which was always something which made us so nervous - we never wanted to leave him in a kennel or a dog hotel. We had regular updates from Mal and he looked so happy. I would definitely recommend Mal and we are already looking ahead to more holidays knowing our best friend will be safe, sound and happy.
Mal looked after our two dogs and two cats for two weeks. They come with lots of instructions for various reasons and I felt completely confident that they were in good hands. He is extremely experienced and keeps you up to date with photos through the week. We will definitely be using him again.
Mal has come to look after our dogs a number of times. He's wonderful with them, friendly and trustworthy. We feel very safe leaving our dogs and home in his hands.
Mal is fabulous! He looked after our house, and more importantly, our dogs perfectly while we were away.
He is extremely trustworthy and the house was very clean and tidy on our return.
We have three dogs and one of them is still sulking that Mal isn't here.
We have already booked our next two trips and booked Mal. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
We were nervous about leaving our increasingly creaky 17 yr old lab with anyone but friends or family (just in case!). However, Mal did such a fantastic job that Ella hardly noticed our absence. He dealt stoically with disturbed nights and Ella's constant demands for her next meal! It's just a shame that Mal is unavailable for our next trip away as we wouldn't hesitate to use him again.
Mal was very respectful of our home and everything was clean and tidy on our return.
Regular WhatsApp updates put out minds to rest about Ella's wellbeing. Thanks again Mal.
Mal has looked after our home and 2 elderly chocolate lab boys on a few occasions now. Our doggies love having him around and they were probably disappointed when we got back haha.
We received regular updates and our mind were at complete ease with Mal looking after the house and the boys.
I do highly recommend him, we would only go away from now on if we can book Mal in again!
Mal did a great job house and dog sitting for us whilst we were away for a week. Our cocker spaniel Kobi loved Mal and had an action packed week while we were away. Mal gave us great peace of mind knowing that there was somebody we knew was trustworthy was looking after him. It made a big difference to know that Kobi was settled in his home whilst we were away rather than staying with other dogs in an unfamiliar environment.
Mal looked after our home and dog, Atticus, over the weekend of our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. He is a genuinely lovely person, and Atticus instantly took to him. Mal proved to be extremely trustworthy, ensuring our home was well cared for and Atticus was happy and well looked after. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a reliable and caring house sitter or dog sitter.
Would 100 % recommend Mal. We felt so reassured when we were on holiday during the summer that our house and dog was being so well looked after.
Very pleased with the service provided by Mal. Looked after our house and 2 dogs while we enjoyed our holiday. We received regular updates and knowing he was there made our holiday more enjoyable. Would highly recommend and we will be using him again.
Mal was fantastic from start to finish. He was very reliable from organising the start date and time to even getting us some milk in for when we returned from a long flight. He sent pictures of the dogs whilst we were away keeping me regularly updated which gave us peace of mind and Teddy our little chocolate dachshund who can be weary of new people, fell in love with him and is looking forward to his next visit! I would highly recommend Mal and we will be looking to book him in again in 2025!
Excellent service from Mal! Super easy and clear communications to organize, updates on request whilst we were overseas. Happy animals when we returned. We will be using Mal plenty of times going forward…knowing our animals are happy and safe in their own environment helps us to completely relax when abroad.
