I cannot recommend Ginger and Tails highly enough! We have used Holly for both sits and walks for our cocker spaniels. She always provides a professional, reliable and friendly service. The girls look forward to their walks with her and I know they are in good hands.

We had the pleasure of having Holly at Ginger and Tails look after our cat, Dragon, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Her genuine love for animals shines through – she’s not just a pet sitter, she truly is a dog (and cat!) whisperer.

I can’t recommend Holly enough! I instantly felt comfortable, and I felt at ease knowing Bear was is such good hands. I returned home, and Bear was calm, happy, and had clearly had plenty of stimulation. Holly is trustworthy, communicative, and was great with Bear, I’ll definitely be booking again.

– Bear

Excellent is not enough to describe our experience with Holly. From our first meeting, we could tell this is a passion job for her and her care in taking care of Simba was evident in the communication held throughout our trip.

– Simba

Holly is a great dog walker she is very professional and cares greatly for your dogs. I would highly recommend Holly to anyone that needs a great, kind, caring and professional dog walker.

Holly is fantastic – she has looked after my two cats a number of times and I would recommend her wholeheartedly as a trustworthy, responsible and reliable person.

– Atticus & Scout

We felt completely safe leaving our beloved pets in her care, knowing they were not just being watched, but truly cared for. We will wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, professional caregiver for their furry companions.

Holly has looked after Betty, our quite demanding dachshund, many times and leaves us with complete peace of mind when we are away. She is 100% reliable, trustworthy and loves Betty like we do.
