Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Code of Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.

We were looking for kennels for our lab for the weekend while it was our wedding, we had looked at recomendations and reviews and choose based on that

"Brilliant to find such good kennels that keep you update on what they are up to, Luna has had an absolute ball lots of running around and playing, being sent regular updates have been fab knowing what she has been up to. If she needs to go to kennels again she will definitly be back"

I have weekly dog walking service

"I have used the dog walking services provided by girls weekly for the past 2 years. They provide an excellent service and very obliging and accommodating when I have requested extra services. Both my dogs are cared for to the highest of standard during their time with the girls. I would not hesitate to recommend their pet services."

I was looking for somewhere secure and a home from home for my dog for the weekend whilst I went away up Scotland. I would be thr first time he was away from home and not with a friend of the family. Looking through Facebook and Google I saw Purrfect paws boarding kennels. So co tasted Ellie asking g if there was availability for when I wanted to go away and also to go have a look prior and introduce her to power. I had the choice of kennels or a pod which had been adapted for dogs, which included a secure garden area which was astro turfed, a sofa for the dogs to lie on in the sun and there very own ball pit.

"From the minute I dropped power off for his stay he was pampered, Ellie and her sister went out of their way to ensure he was happy, playing with him, taking him for walks in the field and of course plenty of belly tickles. I was constantly kept up to date on how he was through messages, and pictures. I would highly recommend Purrfect paws boarding kennels and I have already booked him back in."

We were looking for a dog walker 2x per week & kennels too for our 2 pups Willow & Phoebe! Upon meeting both Elle & Bree on a home visit, they fitted the criteria we were looking for & we could tell how passionate & dedicated they both are to their business!

"Our 2 pups Willow & Phoebe have been with Purrfect paws for over a year now & I can honestly say I wouldn’t have anyone else have our pups! Both Elle & Bree are such lovely girls & you can definitely see their passion & dedication to their business! Willow & Phoebe have 2 1 hour walks per week & sometimes day care & also stay for their hollibobs at Purrfect paws retreat, it’s a lovely small 4 kennels & a pod option too, our girls get all the care & attention needed & spoiled rotten! There is so much outdoors as it’s based on their farm, both Elle & Bree keep us updated when we go on our holidays! The activities they do with our girls is 5⭐️ and more!! Keep up your amazing hard work girls!! Highly recommend anyone looking for doggy care 🐾🐾"

We were let down with the company we had booked, quite last minute so we had to look further away from where we live. We now would choose to travel here to get the care Elvis got while we were away.

"It was such a worry leaving our dog for the first time but he absolutely had a blast. He had lots of walks & we had lots of happy photos sent to us during our holiday. Would definitely recommend & we have booked him in again for the summer."

I was looking for a homely service for my dog. I chose this because my dog came for a trial and absolutely loved it here with the girls

"The girls were very helpful and kept me updated. I regularly got sent photos of my dog and it was clear she was having a great time! I have been back twice now and my girl loves going!"
