Helen has looked after our labradoodle  puppy Lola for 2 days a week since September 2018.  As first time dog owners it has been wonderful for us to know Lola is in such good hands.  Helen has been a fantastic support in training Lola and socialising her with other dogs and humans.  She always returns home a clean, happy and exhausted dog.  Helen always gives constant updates on how she's getting on and to see her frolicking around with other dogs is such a joy when I'm at work.  We feel very lucky to have found Helen!

Helen at Adored Paws is just wonderful, my pup always has a blast in her care and gets the opportunity to have fun and exercise with her furry four legged friends.  Helen is a fantastic, responsible, caring and passionate dog walker who I don't hesitate to recommend.

Our 2 pugs recently boarded with Adored Paws for a week while we went abroad. Even after the settling in visit, it became clear how much Helen treats the dogs as part of the family. She was very thorough making sure we packed everything (including my older dog's medication) in advance of their visit. We received regular updates and photos while we were away, and didn't worry about them once! I think the dogs were quite disappointed to come home after they'd had such a lovely time with Helen + family. They received lots of love, attention and regular exercise. I would have no reservation in recommending Helen and Adored Paws to anyone looking for their dogs to be kept in the style to which they've become accustomed. I very much look forward to booking the pugs in for their next stay!

Thank you Helen for making Max feel like part of the family during his stay. He certainly didn’t want to leave! Your care and attention to detail is obvious and we wouldn’t hesitate to use your services again or to recommend you. Thank you!

​The most fantastic home from home Doggy day care and boarding!  Kiki fitted in straight away and loved every moment!

Our Labrador recently boarded for 4 days and I am delighted with the care that he received. It’s obvious that Helen loves dogs and is passionate about what she does, and our pup clearly had the best time. Helen was kind enough to send detailed and regular updates along with photos of our puppy on his adventures. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Helen and Adored Paws!

I have absolutely no problem strongly recommending Helen at Adored Paws.  My puppy adores going there and Helen ensures she has great walks and fabulous fun in the garden!  I would not let my dog go to anyone else - she has even stepped up to the mark and cared for Purdey when I was rushed into hospital.  Five star care and five star service!

​The lovely Helen stepped in at the very last minute to look after our two cats last weekend and I can't recommend her highly enough. She was very professional and made the time to come over and meet the cats before we left.  Our cats were not only well fed and watered, but she took time to play with them and bond with them too - they both seemed very happy when we got home & don't appear to have missed us - judging by the photos we got sent too, they seemed to have had a lovely time!  It was lovely to go away and feel completely relaxed about leaving the cats - poor Helen even had to clear up after a hunting spree they both had, but there was never a word of complaint and you can tell she genuinely likes being around the animals - she has such a calm manner with them and is interested in getting to know them. We will definitely be using 'Adored Paws' again!  Thank you Helen!

I can highly recommend Helen. Adored Paws is our to go to pet services. Our dogs settle in and have a blast on their walks and Helen takes plenty of photos/videos for us to see.
Helen has stepped in to save the day on a few occasions with last minute bookings etc and she will do everything she can to accommodate your needs.
I have no hesitation in recommending Adored Paws.

My 10 month old puppy stayed with Adored Paws for 10 days and I was delighted with the care she received. It was the first time we’d left her so we were understandably a little nervous but we had absolutely no reason to be. We loved receiving regular updates, photos and videos of the fun she was having and I genuinely think she was a little disappointed when we returned to collect her! She’d enjoyed lots of exciting walks with other dogs and had thoroughly her stay. She’d made friends with several dogs and even the family cat. I have no hesitation in recommending Adored Paws.

I simply can’t praise Adored Paws enough. Our rescue cat is elderly, sickly, grumpy and suspicious, and her early experiences have made her almost feral. Most people would give her a wide berth, but Helen won her trust in minutes, and for the first time ever we’ve returned from a break to find the cat happier than we left! Not only that, but Helen went the extra mile in ensuring our house was secure, our bins went in and out at the right times, and she even fed our late-to-hibernate hedgehog. She clearly genuinely loves animals, and we consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have found her!
