Peace of mind is priceless when you are leaving your pets. When you're going on holiday but don't like the thought of leaving your pets in kennels or catteries. I offer a live in service, which means your pet won't get the stress of leaving their home. They have the exact same routine as if you were at home. I know how stressful it can be when leaving your beloved pets to go on holiday or for a da
y out. So my aim is to make sure you and your pets are happy and relaxed. Please email or call for quotes, as rates are based on how many/what type of pets you have that need to be cared for. [email protected]

I have 10+ years of experience in looking after and caring for animals, fully insured and can offer references. I also have a Certificate in Canine First Aid. I'm very patient and caring. Nothing is too much trouble. Whether it's administering medicine, being there for the farrier, regular vet trips etc. I also have experience with nervous and wary animals. I am more than happy to carry out numerous pre visits so your pet/s get to know me before carrying out a booking, if they are really nervous or wary of new people. So anything I can do, before/during a booking, to help our clients enjoy their time away without worrying over their pets, I will do! For clients with horses, I have over 9 years of experience with horses: I've owned my own horse for the past 8 years and have experience looking after and caring for all shapes and sizes. I am more than happy to also exercise horses for clients while they are away, such as lunging, long reining or even riding if need be. Reviews:
''Jemma has looked after our house and dogs twice now and we have been very satisfied with the service that she provides. She is understanding of the vagaries of our dogs daily routine with nothing being too much of an effort. On our return the dogs were happy, settled and clearly hadn’t missed us. We are very happy to recommend Jemma’s services.''
"When Jemma looked after our horses and cats for a weekend they were looked after just perfectly. She went the extra mile to make sure they were all kept happy and nothing was too much. It was so reassuring to come home to a happy bunch and they can’t wait till she comes back in September to spoil them all again!!" - Lynsey
"We received a recommendation for Jemma at Hoofs Hounds and Claws after we found ourselves desperate for care for our greyhound Smoky for the first time since we adopted him 7 years ago. Jemma was everything we could have hoped for for our Smoky (and more says Smoky) - came to see us beforehand, replied immediately to our texts when we were away, sent us a lovely piccie of Smoky upside down asleep and clearly not missing us at all! Nothing was too much trouble and Jemma did not bat an eyelid at all our instructions for our spoiled boy!! We came home to a beautifully tidy house and Smoky was totally relaxed and happy. Smoky is smitten with Jemma, his new best friend. Like many others, we simply would not have entrusted our boy to anyone but we knew from the moment we met Jemma that she was completely genuine. She ought to be charging twice the amount.
5 stars Jemma! (From Louise, Derek and Smoky)"
"I would highly recommend hoofs, hounds & claws. I have used Jemma to look after our greyhound, Elf on a few occasions now. I have total peace of mind when I know Jemma is looking after him & don't have to worry, it's great! I am just so thankful to now have someone so reliable, flexible & trustworthy to care for our boy when we can't be at home with him. Elf is thoroughly happy when we return & he has been with Jemma, whether it be for a few hours or days. Thanks so much for supplying the service you do, a real saviour!" - Leisha
"Just wanted to give my thanks for a great pet sitting service from Hoofs, Hounds & Claws recently. This was our first time with Jemma looking after our pets whilst we were away on holiday. We have a mixed family of pets with cat, rabbit, ducks & chickens all to be looked after. Jemma did a great job & we came home to a stress free family! Everything was very tidy & just as we wanted it. I was especially pleased that Jemma kept in touch with me to let me know all was well & therefore put my mind at rest that my pets were in good hands. Would definitely use this service again & recommend to others too." - Tracey
"We had Kirsty come take care of our older staffie dog Bruce for the weekend while we were away. Bruce instantly loved her! I felt confident that Kirsty would provide him with the best of care. She doted on him all weekend, giving him lots of cuddles and plenty of exercise. When we got back Bruce was relaxed and happy and didn't want her to leave! I would recommend Kirsty or Jemma to anyone looking for a pet sitter. They are professional, caring and lovely people. Thanks again for your help!" - Desiree and Bob
"Having someone to look after our animals when we go away is vital to us - we have to know that they are well and safe otherwise we couldn't leave them so when our last animal sitter retired we were worried. We saw the Hoof, Hounds and Claws ad online and our hopes rose! Jemma came and visited and we immediately felt that she was knowledgeable about animal care, able to manage our horses, concerned and caring and very organised. She has looked after our horses and sometimes dog several times this year and has done an excellent job - keeping us up to date with our animals well being, sending us great photos of them and leaving the place s***k and span! We have no hesitation in recommending her services.
