TOPDOGS Home from Home Boarding Service

Client Testimonials

"We were very happy with Top Dogs, even though we made a fairly late booking at a busy time, everything was very thorough and friendly. That meant we could go away and enjoy our break with no worries!"
Kathy H

"Mel [our Top Dogs carer] was excellent with Snowy. She took on board all her little ”quirks” and Snowy settled extremely well into her home. I felt reassured that, while we were away, Snowy would be happy and I gather from Mel that she was top dog over Mel’s dog Bruno who was about 20 times bigger!!
Very happy with the service and would certainly use it again."
Mrs M V R

"Having met Debbie and Karen [our Top Dogs carer] I was certain that Ben was in good hands. When I picked Ben up after our holiday he was totally happy and content."
Stuart M

"We have been extremely satisfied with the service received from Top Dogs. Debbie efficiently matched us with a carer and swiftly organised an introductory meeting. We were nervous about leaving our dog for the first time but we need not have worried. Our carer made our dog very welcome and we were able to go on holiday knowing that he would be well looked after and cared for.
On our return, it was clear that our dog had settled well and we will therefore use Top Dogs again in the future."
Suzanne P

"It was reassuring going on holiday for 2 weeks to know that Merlin was with such a lovely family – it really put our mind at rest. When we dropped Merlin off they were so pleased to see him and he had a great time with their own dog, who was similar in nature and temperament. Ally sent me a couple of texts whilst on holiday to let me know that Merlin had settled in well and was having a great time."
Andrea G

"Byrne had a fantastic time at Rob and Rita’s – he had far more one-to-one attention than he gets at home, and formed a strong bond with Rob. In actual fact he was very hesitant when he had to come back home!! He will be returning when we have our next holiday. Thank you for your very conscientious service."
Sue H

"I was really pleased with the experience Flora and I had with Top Dogs. The whole thing was very professional and efficient, but also very focussed on Flora and what she needed. I felt very confident leaving here with her carer, and it is a load of my mind to know that I now have a much better alternative to kennels for Flora when I go away."
Pat S

"We have never left our dog before with anyone who is not family and therefore we were quite wary about leaving Biscuit. However having used Top Dogs I would not hesitate to leave Biscuit again, for us Top Dogs is the perfect solution. I think he enjoyed his holiday almost as much as we did!"
Alison G

"All of our apprehensions about leaving Phoenix were put to rest when we met Debbie, her daughter and their family dog. They seemed to love Phoenix as their own pet. It will make future holidays a little easier knowing that she’s happy and well cared for. We’re very pleased with the service."
Barry and Paige

"I was impressed by the speed and efficiency in response to my request for a carer at quite short notice. I felt you went out of your way to help. Thank you."

"I am so delighted with the fantastic service, what a great idea, so glad to have found you.
I shall spread the word."

"Having had a comprehensive chat about my dog’s requirements, Debbie from Top Dogs placed Poppy with a lovely lady where she stayed for four days. Just seeing Poppy so at home when I picked her up makes it so worthwhile finding the right carer. I highly recommend using Top Dogs"
Helen de M

"The service from Top Dogs has been excellent. The organisation of Poppy’s stay was extremely efficient and the quality of carers was first class and they were obviously very experienced in looking after dogs."
Pat and Clive

"We enjoyed our holiday all the more knowing that Dillan, our 9 month old puppy, was being cared for in a family home with great walks every day. Thank you for such a good service, we would highly recommend it"
The Sykes family

"We have never left our dog with anyone other than family, and were nervous at the thought of home boarding - but Top Dogs were extremely professional and friendly and put our minds to rest. Judging by the amount of licks given when we left Pickle adored staying with her family. The carer even took the time to take some pictures of her on the sofa asleep on her daughters lap! Really great service and we will definitely use again, thanks to you all"
Mrs Greenhalgh

"Top Dogs has helped me organise safe and reliable local day-care for my well-loved dog 'Herman the Large Munsterlander'. Over recent months I have had to increase my working hours and been faced with the dilemma of spending less time at home or out walking with my beloved pet. Debbie at Top Dogs has put me in touch with local pet lovers with whom I can entrust my pet. He always returns to me happy and relaxed having felt cared for whilst I am out at work. I would thoroughly recommend this service to anyone who feels torn by the necessity of work and the responsibilities of pet care"
