Customer's reviews
We fully recommend Joe and his team! We left our 6-month-old Golden Retriever, Milo, with them and couldn’t be happier with the experience.
We started gradually with short walks, then half-day and full-day care, followed by a trial nights before leaving Milo with Joe for a whole week while we were on holiday.
From the beginning, Joe was informative, honest, helpful and reassuring. We received regular texts, photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Milo always came home happy, relaxed and full of energy.
When Jack and Luke picked him up, he was so excited to see them that he didn’t even look back at us! That really showed us how comfortable and happy he was with them.
We’re so grateful to the whole team for taking such great care of our boy. We’ll definitely be using them again! ❤️

My pup and I recently moved to London from the United States and I had a lot of anxiety about starting work as I would now have to be in the office all 5 days each week. Joe and the 4 Paw team really helped alleviate that stress - my dog has the absolute BEST time running around and playing with his friends, walking, enrichment activities, and when I travel overnight for work I know he’s in great hands. The team absolutely adores my pup as if he was one of theirs - when they come to collect him my dog goes absolutely mad with excitement and happiness and doesn’t look back. He’s calm and secure and happy when I get home, showing me how fulfilling his days are while I work long hours. As an added bonus, they have been great with also helping my young dog work on recall and walking better. In summary I can’t recommend 4Paw enough!

I’ve used 4 Paw Friend for both day care and walks and it’s safe to say both Bailey (my pup) and I are more than satisfied with the service. Joe & Rich have been amazing. As a single dog mum, with a very active pup, it’s nice to have support with walks and day care when I have a busy day or just want to go to the gym. Bailey always comes back tired, and dare I say better behaved, which is great. Pick up is always prompt, they have a great gps tracking system with live updates of her walks including pictures and videos. Even after all of that, they still take the time to give me direct feedback when dropping her home. Such care is taken in ensuring both myself and Bailey are happy. Couldn’t ask for me. Thank you both so much.
