My veterinarian recommended Brian at Poochy Paws when my dog needed intense post-surgical care…read morewhile I was traveling. Brian took very good care of my dog after his knee surgery, and my dog is now healing well. We've used Poochy Paws since then for daycare, and they are always on time with the pickup/dropoff. My dog saw Brian across the park recently and started wagging his tail and seemed very happy to see him, definitely a positive review!

This place was a godsend for me and my partner when over the May break a few years ago we couldn't…read morefind anyone staying in London who could sit our flat cats while we were on holiday. I think the idea of kennels is fine for dogs, but cats are more lone wolf than the actual ancestor of the wolf... so this was the perfect solution. The first time we booked with them Louise the founder came round to meet us and the cats, answer any questions we had, and allay any fears. You then choose the number of visits and what sort of time (morning/evening) you have your pet 'sat', or dog walked, fed etc. They spend a good amount of time with your pet, playing with it, feeding it, making sure there are no problems. They even water your plants and leave a little diary so you know how your cat/dog/a.n.other has been while you've been away. We even came home to a pint of milk. I honestly can't praise this company enough, I really can't. Absolutely trustworthy and worth every single penny!!!

We were very reluctant to have someone coming into our home to feed our cat but had no choice as…read moreshe gets too distressed in cattery. We were concerned about the house security (we had just been burgled!) and worried that Lucy our cat would be really lonely and not want to leave the house as mostly likes to go in the garden when we are around. How impressed we were upon our return. Far from being upset and hiding in the house, Lucy wasn't even home! It was 1am but we had to wait over an hour before she came trotting home from her jaunts! She was overjoyed to see us but she was as plump as ever (unlike her return from the cattery) and showed no signs of stress. The notes left by the visitors were detailed and reassuring and showed the level of care that we had hoped for. It also showed the security measures that had been taken on the house. And, the pint of fresh milk in the fridge was a wonderful touch!! Thank you

Doug rocks! He is pet sitting my rather highly strung, difficult little angel, Jason. He's been…read moresending us regular pictures and updates. Jason appears to be happy and relaxed. We were nervous about finding someone to take care of the little man because our previous pet sitter returned Jason to us looking very thin indeed and with scars on his face which looked like bite marks. Doug heard what we said and has been sending photos of Jason actually eating and without bite marks! We're not using Doug's walking service on a regular basis because we don't live in his pick up area, but Jason is going out with his groups while he's staying with them. From what I've seen in the photos and when I did a trial walk with him and his groups it all seems to be going very smoothly. I don't want to tempt fate by writing a review too early, but what else can I do on sleepless night?

From the second we met Doug we knew we were happy to trust him with our baby and also the keys to our home. Since day one Doug has been beyond patient and a credit to Martins development. Since Doug has looked after him, Martin is no longer car sick, LOVES other dogs, and most importantly has the support he needs as a little puppy. We honestly couldn't recommend Doug highly enough for anybody looking for a reliable dog walking and dog care service. Thanks Doug!

My dog likes to look fresh…read more Haha, not really. If it were up to her she'd let herself resemble Pigpen, would roll around in dirt and feces, and would generally look like she'd just been through a forage in the forest. However, as an apartment dog...this is not acceptable. She is a shorthaired lady, so she doesn't need the particular cut, but every few months she does need a deep down brushing, scrub and nail trim (something about trimming another beings nails terrifies me)...and thus we search for her spa. Easier said than done in East London! But I finally found Groom Dog City and I am quite pleased with the output. It's in a little shop near Haggerston/Columbia Market, they took my appointment quickly, the staff was very nice (both the owner and the assistant), and 45 minutes later I returned and was gifted back a dog that looked to be much cleaner and about 4 bales of hair lighter. Win. Reasonably priced too! For the works on my type of dog (again, no cutting/trimming required) for bath, eyes, ears, nails, brushdown -- about £25. I also left a tip because I have to believe this is thankless work giving spa treatments to animals who do not wish to be pampered. If they only knew! They even returned her to me with a little bow. I'll be visiting again next time she starts to resemble a vagabond... *appointments easily made online (he called me back right away). *there are a few shop dogs, word to the wise. I mentioned my dog wasn't so nice with other dogs she doesn't know, and they easily blocked them off. I'm sure my dog was still a nervous wreck, but there is a price to beauty and to coexisting with humans, Tillie.
