Dawn Sorby
I left my furkids in the charge of the lovely Dawn. I usually ask family to have the kids but thought I would give Little Tiddlers a go this time. She visited me a few days before we were due to fly out and all my apprehensions and worries were soon dissolved as she is personalable, friendly and professional and I was sure after her visit to meet Kev n Patsy that they would be fine, especially Kevin as he can be quite a fearful boy and not the most sociable of chaps with strangers. A day or so into my holiday I got texts and wats app pictures and updates my babies were fine.. she even sent us little videos being fussed and it was lovely. My Kevvy actually came out to her and let her stroke him and sit next to him. We had a fab holiday and can honestly say that with the updates, Videos and pictures we didnt worry once well maybe a tinsy bit but they were safe in Dawns care. x We returned home late last night to happy relaxed cats. Dawn Laver thank you for looking after our kids. We are so happy with the service and would recommend you 100% to family and friends. Thank you love Dawn and David. and of course Patsy n Kevvy xxxxx ❤ More...

Having two old and very particular cats that are normally very nervous and scatty upon our return from holiday- daily visits from dawn whilst away has completely changed this! Came home to very chilled out cats . Excellent communication and a very friendly service you will receive when using dawn. Thank you once again More...

Absolutely fabulous care and attention to our 'Tigger' while we were away. Highly recommended. Before we left, Dawn checked the needs and welfare of cat, updated us, and confirmed that we were home as planned in case any 'last minute vidit' needed

Couldn't recommend Dawn enough! She's very professional but so so personable. We can now go away knowing that our cat is in good hands with such a friendly lady, and her love for the animals is pretty evident! I love this. Thank you so much Dawn! x More...

Highly recommend. I’ve always put my kitty in a cattery whenever I’ve gone away and on return always found my puddy cat to by stressed and upset. Dawn is lovey and did a great job looking after my shy cat. When I came home my cat was relaxed, happy, watered and fed. I don’t think she even noticed I hadn’t been there. Definitely recommend, what an excellent service thank you! More...

Dawn is a lovely person who is mad about dogs! She loves them and it shows in the love and care her 'doggie house guests' receive and the way they are treated as part of the family.
My dog, Ronny, made himself at home as soon as he got there and didn't really want to leave when it was time to come home! He adores Dawn and I wouldn't leave him with anyone else.
Her home is spacious and dog friendly with a secure garden for the dogs to enjoy and her own dog, Barney, seems to love his furry house guests as much as Dawn and her husband do.
I can't recommend Dawn highly enough and Ronny can't wait to see you again in September.

I was recommended to Dawn after asking a local "spotted" Facebook page. From the moment I met her I knew Marley would be safe with her. She is very friendly, welcoming and loving towards any animal. Marley is a big part of my family and we do like to take him places we can all go as a family however, with family visiting we planned to go places we couldn't take dogs. I didn't want to cut the days short by thinking we have to get back for Marley or he's been left too long. Dawn was the perfect answer to my worries. She looked after Marley at her house with just her dog. I liked the fact there was only one other dog. Barney is a very friendly dog and they got on really well. She did everything we asked when looking after Marley and kept his routine the same. I cannot recommend Dawn enough. I will definitely be using this service again and will recommend to all my friends who have pets. Thank you for giving us peace of mind and letting us enjoy our days out xx More...

Dawn is flexible to meet my needs all the time. Efficient, reliable, honest and friendly. Caspar loves her and looks forward to her arriving. She either provides a pop in service or takes Caspar out for his fun. It must be nearly a year now since your brochure landed on our door mat and I look forward to seeing you again in 2018 as does, Caspar. A great service provided, thank you. Highly recommended.

Our Billy the Border has recently spent over 2 weeks with Dawn of 'Little Tiddlers'. I say we've never felt so reassured that our little man was being taken good care of. Dawn sent regular messages to us with pictures of Billy, he looked so happy and content. Although we missed Billy, as we always do when we're away we knew he was in good hands and well cared for. From the moment we met Dawn in her own home with Billy, we knew that Billy would be fine. A great professional service that we would highly recommend for any pet lover who's pet is one of the family.

Thoroughly recommend Dawn's pet sitting service! She gave me regular updates about my cats whilst away which really put my mind at ease. It was lovely to come back home knowing my cats were safe and relaxed in their own surroundings. After using a cattery for years, I wanted something less stressful for myself and more so for the cats. I will be using Dawn's services again!! More...

Dawn visits our two rescue pups every weekday. The dogs love her (which is not easy as they’re very timid and nervous) and she makes life 100% easier knowing the pups have some company and a toilet break during the day. Would 100% recommend her services.

Thank you Dawn for all your help and patience with my enquiries and hundreds of questions. Although you were not free on the date I was enquiring about, you could not have done anymore to help me out , including giving me excellent recommendations (for the lady you use to look after your own Barney).
What really was genuinely caring was the fact you also followed up to check that I was sorted and everything was ok, that really was above and beyond.
I will certainly be in touch again in the future as I know that Jasper would receive 5* treatment with you and Barney & that piece on mind is priceless.
Thank you again Dawn, will be in touch x

dog walking/Cat visits
I offer 1 to 1 visits for dogs that a group walk is just to much for them .
Older dogs that just want a slower pace or dogs that just love a good walk in the countryside without being part of a pack.
I also offer home cat visits for when you are away,letting your cat stay in the comfort of their own home.
