"Our dog had a wonderful time at Laura's. I don't think he wanted to come home! Laura's communication with me was excellent throughout. We were able to introduce our dog to Laura before he stayed with her which was useful. Laura also sent photos of our dog so we knew he was in safe hands and having a lovely time. Luckily, he did behave well. He is a lab and is very well socialised, loves children and is easy to please but he is young still and strong. However, I had no worries at all about leaving our dog with Laura and would do so again without hesitation."

"Laura looked after Joy so well and sent us lots of pictures of our pup and her activities/ walks during her stay at Laura’s place. We were very happy and relaxed knowing that Joy is in good hands and would book Laura as a pet sitter again in a heartbeat."

"Laura and her family took incredible care of our beagle Jay while we were on holiday. Laura was very communicative, flexible, and sent lots of updates and pictures. She took Jay on lots of adventures, hikes, and set up a very cozy spots for her to nap afterwards. Will absolutely look to book Laura again and would recommend her to any one!"

"Laura & Gray have looked after my 3 yr old Lab many times. They take him for several walks a day and I get to see cute pictures and videos of them having a great time while I’m away. I never think twice about him as I feel like he is having a holiday himself. I highly recommend them!"

"Billy has been going to Laura for a year now and is treated like one of her family. He has some special requirements with food and medication and this has been no problem, which we really appreciate. Laura has taken all Billy’s quirks and worked with them so he has a great stay. He loves to go there and has a great time, we feel relaxed going away knowing he is being extremely well cared for ❤️"

Laura has been an absolute life saver for us! Sunflower loves her so much and we know that she is not only getting a great walk but lots of love and cuddles. Sunflower recently enjoyed a wonderful week being looked after by Laura and her family, she’s never been to so many places and was truly spoilt. Highly recommend. Thanks again for everything you do to support us.

“Just picked up Alan, our Welsh Terrier from Laura & Gray Doggums home from home Premium Stays.
He’s had another fabulous stay in Laura's home where he’s had plenty of fresh air out walking and socialisation with canine pals. Whenever I leave Alan with Laura I know he’s safe and well looked after, and that he’s going to get the love and attention that a home from home stay can provide. Alan has enjoyed overnights, weekends and extended stays, and we are always kept updated with photos of his activities - and his relaxation times with the family. Thank you to Laura & Gray”

Laura has been looking after our boy for a few weeks now.
She’s so fantastic, is so flexible around us and gives us updates all day.
Snickers has the best time with the other dogs and is always so worn out when she’s home.
Highly recommended!

"Laura and Gray are the best!! They took our special needs dog, Hank, in without hesitation. She understood Hank's limitations (due to his blindness) and treated him like a king. Hank got to enjoy lovely walks and had plenty of snuggles on the couch. Laura and Gray also do a fabulous job of giving daily updates; so we were able to fully relax on our holiday because Hank was in great hands. In fact, we were nervous that Hank wouldn't want to come home (just kidding of course). Hank had such a good time, that we have already rebooked him for our next trip. Can't say enough about how wonderful Doggums Premium Home is"

Best friends for life
I love how the doggies we look after become lifelong friends, pretty much all our dogs can mix with each other so we sometimes have more than one staying together – maximum 2 for my own sanity……. It’s so much fun watching them play, they have their best day ever!

Laura has been looking after our 'Bear' for some time now - we will not use anyone else. Fantastic care, he loves staying there and gets all the walks and care he needs. She and her family are totally trustworthy and really do care about the dogs they have in their care. As Bear has got older, Laura has adjusted his exercise time and intensity - he always comes home healthy and happy.

"I highly recommend Laura! Charlie stayed earlier this year for a weekend, he was so at home.
I felt so at ease with regular pictures and videos, so much so I have already booked in for a long holiday next year as I know she gets busy! 5***"

"Luna goes to Laura and Grays regularly and she always has the best time. I never need to worry as she's in wonderful hands and gets lots of exercise and attention. Being a bouncy 2 year old pup it's so great to hear about how she is when out and about and I get regular updates and photos of her adventures. She's so comfortable staying overnight and both Laura and Gray really go the extra mile to work around dropoff and pickup times.
I couldn't ask for a better place to take care of Luna whilst I'm away."

Laura and family have cared for our whippet brilliantly on a few occasions. We really would recommend their services. He’s returned a happy boy each time and they make him part of the family. We really appreciate Laura’s can do attitude, brilliant communication, and authenticity. The best review we can say is that we’ll continue to use Laura for our dog care needs!

We’d recommend Laura to anyone looking for an experienced carer for their dogs. Our dog had a great stay with lots of interesting & varied walks and Laura sent us plenty of updates & photos to let us know how she was doing. We’d have no hesitation in bringing our dog to Laura again.

Roo has stayed with Laura several times now and always been very happy with the attention Roo has gotten and Laura’s knowledge of dogs.
It’s nice knowing Roo is getting a lot of attention all day rather than being put in to kennels with people and dogs he doesn’t know.

We have just left our dog for the first time with Laura. We will definitely be coming back. We received regular updates all reassuring that Winnie was having a lovely time. There was so much variety and stimulation for her. I don’t think she was happy to be back home! Thank you and see you again.

Laura had my dog Winnie to stay for a week. I have never left Winnie before, so I was a little apprehensive, but as soon as I dropped Winnie off that faded, as I knew she would have a lovely time with Laura. Winnie had lovely walks, playtime with other dogs and got her sofa cuddles all week! We also received lots of updates and photos which
my two children especially loved receiving. Thank you again and Winnie will look forward to her next holiday with Laura!

Our Holly has just spent her 1st week with Laura. I can't recommend it more as a place to leave your dog! We were given daily updates with photos. She was taken everywhere and had so much fun, with people and other dogs. She was loved as though their own dog. We will definitely return

Lovely home from home care from Laura at Doggums. My dog had great fun walks each day with other dogs and Laura updated me with photos so I wouldn’t worry about him while I was away. Wouldn’t hesitate to send him to her again! 🐕🐶

Our little poochon had a lovely week with Laura! She was given lots of attention, lots of interesting walks and made some new doggy friends. The daily photos of their adventures were so lovely to receive! I'd highly recommend!

Laura was brilliant from start to end with our Roxy, she managed to fit us in at pretty short notice, super friendly and kept us updated with what Roxy had been up to during her stay, she sent lots of pictures and we could see how happy Roxy was, she clearly had lots of walks and exercise and fuss by the looks of it! Highly recommend!! Wouldn’t hesitate to book Roxy in again as I know she would be well looked after!

Our to Labs always have an amazing stay with Laura and Gray. It really is a home from home for them, they settle quickly and are very soon completely relaxed and content. As owners it’s so important to have the peace of mind that your dogs are being well cared for while you are away. They go on some fabulous walks, trips to the beach, the woods and the pub ! In fact they have such great time that the next booking we have I am staying with Doggums and hubby can take a trip away with the dogs !
