Nala stayed with Vicky and Ian while we went away on holiday and it’s safe to say she’s had the best time. It’s very clear that Vicky and Ian are very passionate about the dogs and I would 100 % recommend. She will definitely be coming back Thankyou so much 😍

"Opal absolutely LOVED her stay with Wyllows walkies! We were nervous to leave her even though Opal had her trial night and a couple of day care visits, but as soon as we dropped her off we were put at ease as Opal was dying to get inside and play! We absolutely loved all of the updates and pictures posted that showed how much fun Opal was having! We found ourselves looking at the page all the time for the next update, and to see what they were up to which helped us not worry about her whilst we were away! Opal loved all of the walks and play times with the dogs and we honestly couldn’t recommend Wyllows walkies enough! The end of stay report and certificate is also a really lovely touch. We have already booked her in for another stay! Thankyou Vicky (and family)!"

"We got our first family pet dog a couple of years ago and he is our absolute pride and joy. So naturally when it comes to holiday time we wanted the very best to look after Dennis in the comfort of a home that treats him like we do in ours. After messaging Vicky we came for an introduction to her lovely home and to meet the famous Wyllow. Dennis came for some daycare and an overnight trial stay and we was instantly relieved we had made the right decision that this was perfect for Dennis's holiday. Dennis had a wonderful time on his holiday at Wyllows and the fantastic action photos of him and updates made us smile and reasurred us he was having the best time. Now he's home with us he's a little quiet.... definitely missing all his friends at Wyllow’s and of course Vicky and her family. We would highly recommend this professional and friendly business and Dennis is booked in for next year's holiday."

"Vicky and Ian have looked after Betsy twice now for about a week each time plus an overnight stay. Betsy loves staying with them and loves playing with Wyllow and other friends, she gets excited whenever we have dropped her off. Its like she gets to go on holiday too x It’s a big leap to leave your beloved furry baby but was the best decision as they are amazing, lots of walks, playing, cuddles and she always has a great time. Lots of updates and pics so you know they’re settled and happy . We completely trust that she’s completely safe, taken care of and loved 💕".

"We left our pug molly with Vicky and her family for the first time whilst we went abroad to a family wedding. We are very fussy who we trust looking after molly has she means so much to us. We are very happy with the care she received and felt reassured due to the photos and communication we received whilst we were away. Vicky is very professional and obviously cares a lot about the dogs in her care. Molly loved her little holiday away from us and we would highly recommend Wyllows walkies and will not hesitate to leave Molly with Vicky and her family again. Thank you again for looking after her so well. We loved her certificate and end of stay report!!"

"We absolutely love our little pooch Bertie and spend many weekends away with him. However once a year we like to go abroad on a 2 week pup free holiday, so we wanted Bertie to go on his own vacation too. We started looking into home boarding and Vicky at Wyllow's Walkies came highly recommended. From the minute Bertie was dropped off we received regular pupdates, videos & photos. We could see that he was being looked after as part of Vicky's own family. We felt so reassured that Bertie was happy. Our doggy is quite anxious around people, more so men. However Vicky and her husband helped Bertie come out of his shell! We have no hesitation in booking Wyllow's Walkies for Bertie's next doogy vacation and would highly recommend Wyllow's Walkies to others looking for a home from home boarding service!"

"Ted stayed for his first week stay while I was away. I was worried at first as he is a little nervous with new people but after a tester sleep over, I was put at ease. The updates and general posts where I could see how he was doing was fantastic and to see him come out of his shell and be running round and loving being there was so nice to see. He absolutely loved it in the end and couldn't recommend them high enough. Very professional, high-level service and will be using again and again. The added touch of the Stay Report and the Certificate of Stay was a fantastic touch and nice to receive."

"Bobby our Bichon has just spent his holidays with Wyllow’s walkies. He was very well looked after. He had 2 walks a day and plenty of exercise running about with his new pals. He was really settled when he came home which is really nice. We had lots of updates off what Bobby was doing. He settled well. Eating and sleeping.The House and garden were really dog friendly. The preparation for his holiday was very good . We even received a certificate and end of stay report. I would highly recommend and Bobby will be staying in the future 🐶xx"
Jackie/Bobby, February 2024
"Our pooch had the best time with Vicky and Wyllow earlier this year. As soon as her and Wyllow met they were thick as thieves playing none stop. Vicky is amazing at keeping you updated so you can really relax knowing your dog is in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a home from home for their dogs."

"Harry had a wonderful first holiday with Vicky and Wyllow. Harry enjoyed his lovely walks each day, he had other dogs to play with and he was treated like one of the family."

"Our Lhasalier, Beau has just had a holiday with Vicky and Ian and we couldn't be more delighted with the service they provided. With updates throughout the day and two daily walks, the care provided is like a home from home. We were chuffed to get a "report" and certificate after his stay and pleased to hear that Beau had been a good boy. We wouldn't hesitate to book again and will gladly recommend Wyllow's Walkies to family and friends."
Ben & Joanne & Beau, Leigh, November 2023
"Mabel has attend day care as well as 5 nights home boarding and she had a brilliant time. Vicky was kind and patient with Mabel who can be nervous around new people. She settled so well very quickly and the social media updates are great and really reassuring. Thank you. She will see you again soon!"

Our holidays can be enjoyed completely knowing that Charlie is happy and safe in a lovely home. Thank you Vicky xx"

"We left Lola with Vicki and her family at short notice, Vicki having a cancellation and us having second thoughts on our first choice. Lola met with Vicki and her dog Willow as an introductory, and we were told she would be accepted for a ten day stay while our daughter got married in Cyprus. This is the first time Lola had been left in anyone's care and we were put at ease by Vicki Throughout the stay there were constant Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp pupdates. She was absolutely spoilt rotten and seemed to enjoy every minute of her holibobs. We cannot thank Vicki and her family enough. We will definitely be booking Lola for further holidays....she said she cant wait lol.xx"

"Vicky and Wyllow are amazing. We have 2 high energy medium sized dogs that absolutely love both of them to bits. We can’t walk past their house without being dragged to their door (not to mention when they escaped and just came to yours). After a terrible experience at a large daycare facility I was very nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care not to mention that they are pretty crazy dogs so many dog walkers prefer the small easy to handle type of dogs. As soon as Vicky walked in, one of the dogs who was suffering with a touch of anxiety to strangers was totally at ease. We changed our normal boarders to Vicky as we know that it’s home from home for them."

"Our dog is extremely complex, and we searched lots of different dog walkers for someone suitable. We are so happy to have found Wyllow's Walkies, as I know we will get exceptional service, and a really professional approach. Vicki listens to what Dana's needs are and has built up a fantastic bond with her, which can be difficult. Most importantly I know that I can rely on Wyllow's, Vicki is always on time, gives Dana the love and security she needs when we're not there. It also means I panic a lot less than I used to when I have to go to work. 100% recommend!!"

"Poppy went to stay for a few days, we had been for a meet and greet previously, and I was very impressed with how much Vicky loved and cared. Poppy has had the best little holiday and enjoyed playing with Wyllow and going for walks. She has been really well cared for, and we have even received a little school report and certificate for being a good girl plus little messages and photos. I have no hesitation in recommending Wyllows Walkies, absolutely brilliant."

"From our initial enquiry Vicky was responsive, informative, friendly and helpful. We arranged the familiarisation session and everyone was so welcoming including the lovely little Wyllow and after this we didn't hesitate to book Murphy in. Of course we had apprehensions when it came to taking him for his little holiday but this is natural when your fur baby is leaving you for the first time. We needn't have worried he ran off and played with Wyllow and shortly after we were updated with lovely pictures of the two of them having fun in the garden and on a walk, followed by chill time pictures and an update of what he been up to etc.. After his stay Vicky also sent us a little report card by email detailing his stay which was lovely. Murphy is booked in again in the New year and we are so happy to have found such a good home away from home for him. I know he won't look back when we next drop him off and having this peace of mind is priceless. Thanks again - till next time." – Cheryl/Mur

"I’d like to say a very big thanks to Vicky and wyllow for making Ernie feel happy and settled in his first home boarding experience. Ernie is a very active pooch who loves attention, which was more than accommodated for when he stayed for 4 days. As this was his first time staying away from family members I was a little anxious as to how he may behave or settle. Each dog has their own unique characteristics, Ernie is no exception, he’s spoiled rotten at home so I needed somewhere I felt comfortable leaving him and kennels weren’t for us. This experience has been excellent. Vicky answered my questions and put my mind at ease, I viewed posts of him playing with Wyllow and enjoying his walks which was lovely to see. He’s fussy with eating and Vicky accommodated him with his needs. I would definitely recommend this home boarding service and Ernie is booked in again for later in the year. Thank you very much for looking after my boy. "

"We used Vicky for the first time to board our little girl this weekend…..can not wait for her to go back again! She was very well looked after and enjoyed playing with Vickys dog Wyllow. We loved the updates we got through out her stay and felt very relaxed knowing she was having so much fun and lots of cuddles 🐶💕 We already have her next stay booked 😃."

"Couldn’t recommend Wyllow's Walkies enough! Vicky is so lovely and you can tell how much she loves what she does! Our pup went for his first weekend holiday and they looked after him like he was their own, he was so happy and content being there and loved the unlimited amount of cuddles and play time/long walks with Wyllow and Ruby! He had that much fun i don’t think he wanted to come home 😄 thank you again for everything! He is looking forward to his next sleepover! 🐶"

"I left my 2 shih tzus Dotty (9) and Teddy (1) with Wyllow's Walkies for a short break of 4 days. My babies are my world and I was a little anxious as it was their first time with this boarder. Vicky, Ian and Wyllow are all fantastic. The house is really well set up and Vicky really understands how to read and manage dogs and was so accommodating of my dogs individual characters and preferences. Teddy and Wyllow instantly hit it off and Dotty settled well and soon had them wrapped around her little paw. We had lots of social media updates and could see how happy and relaxed they were enjoying Wyllows company. We received an end of stay report and certificate which were such a fab touch. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wyllows Walkies to anyone. Thanks you so much for taking such good care of our babies."
