BUDDY
Buddy is such a happy boy when with Kate and Milo.
At 9 years of age I was concerned as he is a little older than Kate’s other dogs, however Buddy and I couldn’t be happier with regards to time, love and care whilst in Kate’s care and he now can’t wait to get out of the car on arrival....
Thank you Kate for taking such great care of my Buddy!
“He loves being with the dogs and always comes home with a smile on his face ”
GATSBY
I could not recommend Milo & Co. enough! Kate is amazing and I feel really safe leaving my puppy Gatsby in her care. I also love the social interaction that my puppy receives when at Kate's, he loves being with the dogs and always comes home with a smile on his face! Milo & Co. has helped my family massively with helping us and our work schedules, and we could not be more grateful for Kate and her business.
WOODY
Woody loves going on his playdates. Eager to arrive and tired on his return. Well cared for throughout his visits.
“Nothing was too much trouble and she was happy and well cared for.”
KIZZY
Our border collie went to stay with Milo & Co for two different days when we were holidaying in Whitstable, this enabled us to make the most of our short break and visit a couple of non dog friendly places. Kizzy loved her play dates with the other dogs and adored Kate, who clearly equally adores the dogs in her care. Nothing was too much trouble and she was happy and well cared for. When we are down this way again, Kizzy will definitely be booked in again. Highly recommended to anyone.
Thank you Kate!
ZIGGY
Ziggy really loves his Mondays with Milo & Co. Always very excited to go in the morning and exhausted when he comes back - just how we like him. Is very good value for a whole day of walks and play!
“We would recommend Milo & Co without hesitation.”
MAGGIE
“We were so worried about sending Maggie off to day care, but we really had no reason to be. From the minute Maggie met Kate and Milo, she was immediately comfortable. She's with Kate twice a week and has made some truly lovely doggy friends as well as a friend for life in Kate. Even hearing Kate's name at home has Maggie pricking up her ears and running towards the front door - she can't wait to see her! We love seeing pictures of Maggie and her friends on Instagram and knowing she is having such a lovely time gives us genuine peace of mind. We would recommend Milo & Co without hesitation.
“I recommend Milo & Co. to anyone looking for loving care for their precious pooch!”
MIA
“Our lively Cocker Spaniel, Mia, joined Milo & Co. about 5 months ago. Since the first day she happily jumps from the car and races up to the front door so she seems to look forward to seeing Kate and the gang. She’s also knackered at the end of the day after enjoying walks and rumbling with her friends. Mia also stayed for a weekend and it was lovely to see her sleeping peacefully next to Milo on her first night. I recommend Milo & Co. to anyone looking for loving care of their precious pooch!”
“We couldn’t recommend Milo & Co. more highly.”
PEPPER
“Having switched to Milo & Co. for our daycare, we have been so pleased. Kate is friendly, professional, communicative, caring and accommodating. Even better is the fact that our puppy absolutely loves going to stay and obviously gets lots of love while she’s there. We couldn’t recommend Milo & Co. more highly.”
ALFIE
“Alfie (our little Shihtzu) loves going to see Kate. Kate is kind, caring and really looks after Alfie.”
“I couldn’t recommend Kate/ Milo & Co. enough. ”
FRANK
“Kate has been looking after our dog Frank since November, he loves going to day care. Kate is great with him and I could tell from the beginning he really liked Kate and all of the other dogs. I like the updates throughout the day of him hanging out with the whole pack making new friends and having a great time. I couldn't recommend Kate / Milo & Co. enough.”
MISSY
“Our 8 month old Labrador loves going to Milo & Co. You can tell that they really care and look after the dogs and they’re really flexible on timings etc. Highly recommended.”
LOLA
“Kate and Chris are lovely, making your dog feel so much at home, I have recommended them to lots of people - our little Lola fits in beautifully there. Well done.”
“Kate has an instant affinity with dogs.”
LOUIE
“Kate, and her company Milo & Co. have been a delightful addition to Louie's day-to-day life. Kate has an instant affinity with dogs, and Louie is thrilled to spend time with her and Milo and his other chums. We love the flexibility that Kate employs, so an occasional late running train or heavy traffic isn't the white knuckle ride it has been in the past. With a maximum of five dogs at a time, we know that Louie receives plenty of personal attention, and he is returned to us played out and exhausted!”
Buzz
“Our Buzz loves his walks & stay overs with Milo & Kate.
Kate is reliable, trustworthy and very accommodating.
Thank you Kate for always looking after Buzz as well as we do.”
COOPER
“Our dog is called Cooper and is a Labrador. He stays 3 days a week all day at Milo & Co. When I get home and see Cooper he seems totally exhausted from his fun day in doggy care. I can totally trust that he is being cared for and kept safe. I can see and receive lots of photos of Cooper and his friends. When I’m out with Cooper I do tell lots of other dog parents how good Milo & Co. is and 100 percent recommend it for their dogs.”
“They definitely provided that home-from-home feel and cared for our dog as they do their own.”
ELSIE
“Our puppy came to stay with Kate for an overnight stay. During our initial booking Kate was very keen to understand our little dog, her likes / dislikes and routine etc. During her stay Kate kept us updated with how she was. I can’t recommend Kate and Chris highly enough, they definitely provided that home- from-home feel and cared for our dog as they do their own. Highly recommended, we will definitely be returning our dog when needed to Milo & Co.!”
DORRIE
“Dorrie has only been coming to Milo and Co. for a couple of weeks, but already I feel completely comfortable with Kate caring for her and Dorrie herself clearly has a fab time as she gets so excited when we arrive. She loves her walks and being around the other dogs, especially Milo! Kate is so patient with Dorrie too, who is a particularly excitable and chatty pup! Kate is super flexible and has essentially been our back up plan for when we need ad hoc help, but I think Dorrie will most certainly become a Thursday regular.
Thank you Kate (and Milo of course!)”
“We couldn’t have asked for more.”
PABLO
“We are really pleased with the service from Milo & Co. and would highly recommend them. Our young puppy Pablo has never been away from home so we were very nervous about leaving him for the first time. However he absolutely loved it and settled in straight away. He made new friends and enjoyed every minute he was there. We were updated frequently and really couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks very much.”
“I cannot recommend them enough.”
BILLIE
“Our lovely bouncy 3 year old, cocker spaniel, Billie has been to stay with Kate & Chris twice and I cannot recommend them enough. Very knowledgeable about dogs, professional & they show real care & love for the dogs in their care. Billie needed medication & a special diet last time she stayed & this didn’t phase Kate & Chris at all. We felt completely confident leaving Billie with them. She had a great time, lots of walks & games & lots of cuddles, which she loves. Kate & Chris provide regular updates & kept in touch throughout our time away, which meant we could enjoy our holiday without worry. Highly recommended.”
“It’s lovely to know we have found someone we know will be as kind and as loving to our Doris as we are.”
DORIS
“Our mini golden doodle Doris (7 months) has been going to Kate at Milo & Co. for one or two days a week for over 6 weeks now. Kate picks her up at 7.30 am and she normally comes back to us around 6.00 pm. She is so excited to go in the mornings and comes home happily exhausted. She has a great time playing with the other dogs in Kate’s care and loves her daily walks. I have every confidence in Kate and will happily leave Doris with her when we go away for a week’s holiday. It's lovely to know we have found someone we know will be as kind and as loving to our Doris as we are.”
“Booking more play dates soon!!”
ELI
“We can't thank Kate enough.
You really are an absolute STAR!!
Eli, our Black Russian Terrier pup, has been to Milo & Co. twice now and came home both times all smiles. We have been constantly updated by gorgeous vids and pics throughout the day, which were greatly appreciated. Booking more play dates soon!!”
“I would recommend Kate in a heartbeat. ”
BARLEY
“Our Goldendoodle Barley loves spending the day with Kate and her other pups! We use Milo & Co. a couple of times a week and Kate is always super flexible on pick up times, which is really helpful when you’re not sure what time you’ll finish work! Barley was injured recently (*the dreaded seed pod in the paw) and Kate was so helpful in nursing her back to health. I would recommend Kate in a heartbeat- she loves being around dogs and is a pleasure to work with.”
“It’s perfect, home from home. ”
COOKIE
“Our puppy Cookie has had a day a week here ever since we’ve had him and it’s perfect, home from home. Kate is sooooo passionate about dogs and they all love her. She’s super flexible and very accommodating when fitting in doggy dates and also very aware of the dynamics of each of her guests with each other. The Instagram stories she posts are a great way to see what he’s been up to all day. I would highly recommend Milo & Co.”
“Most of all, lots of love and attention.”
ned
“Dear Kate and Chris,
I would like to woof a big thank you for my lovely holiday at Milo & Co.! I had the most fantastic three weeks staying in your super doggie home. Meals on time, loads of walks to the fields and the beach, lots of opportunities to play ball and time just to chill out in the garden with my new friends! Most of all lots of love and attention, which for a big old softie like me is so important. I can’t wait to see you again for another stay in September.
Love from,
Ned.”
Kate and Chris, if Ned could speak we know this is exactly what he would say. Thank you so much for caring for him so well and we look forward to seeing you again in September.
“I would use them again without hesitation.”
Peggy
“I can’t recommend Milo & Co. highly enough - entirely reliable, they love dogs, loads of walks on open fields and on the beach and they sent pictures every day of Peggy having fun. I would use them again without hesitation.”
RILEY
“Riley went to stay with Kate and Chris for a long weekend and he had a great time. They clearly love all dogs and walking so a perfect combination! We will definitely be very happy leaving Riley with them again and have already made our next booking.”
TREACLE
“Before Treacle went to stay with Kate and Chris we visited them at their home and Treacle felt immediately at home. She then went for an overnight stay and had a fabulous time - she loved the paddling pool and was totally relaxed and had a wonderful stay. I would have no problems in recommending them to other people who love their dogs as much as we love Treacle!”
“Goose has the best time...”
GOOSE
“Goose has the best time! He loves to go along and play all day. I don’t have any worries when he is left with Kate and Chris as I know he is being well looked after. Unfortunately you are stuck with Goose on a regular basis now!”
“He reserves a special voice just for when he sees them.”
DASH
“Dash - our four year old miniature daschund - has a few favourite people. Kate and Chris are top of the list. They have been firm favourites since he was 12 weeks old. He reserves a special noise just for when he sees them - get your ear plugs at the ready! We've had Dash with them for short stays and long and the only problem is convincing the dog to come back home with us. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough.”
“She knows when they’re coming and waits excitedly at the door ready for whatever adventure lies ahead!”
maggie
“Maggie, our little 5 year old Parsons/Poodle cross just loves Chris and Kate. We can always be sure that after her day with them, she’ll come back absolutely spent having run around and played and been totally spoiled! She knows when they’re coming and waits excitedly at the door ready for whatever adventures lie ahead! We would absolutely recommend Chris and Kate to anyone looking for dog walkers/sitters. 5 ⭐”
PIG
“Our pug Pig is precious to us, and thus we are wary of letting him out
of our sight for too long, but when he's off to stay with Chris and
Kate, we have no worries whatsoever.
As soon as he sees them, he bolts straight for them and wiggles his
bum so hard it looks like it's going to fall off! He always comes back
super happy and content, and has this tired and glazed look on his
face that says to me "I'm happy, why did I have to leave?!"
I'd say my only concern is Pig loving being with Chris and Kate so
much that he might end up asking to stay with them permanently.
Luckily, he doesn't speak English so I think we can probably swerve
that potentially awkward situation for the time being.I asked Kate to draw a picture of our pug, Pig, for my wife's
birthday, and couldn't have been happier with what she produced. Pig
has a very distinct personality and look, and Kate captured this
perfectly with her illustration - my wife initially thought it was a
photograph and asked how I managed to get him to sit still and pose for
it! She delivered it on time, and in a lovely frame and it now has
pride of place on the wall in our hallway. I'd highly recommend getting
Kate to draw a picture of your pet if you want a classy and unique
present. I'm trying to convince her to do a portrait of our 18 month
old human, but to no avail yet!”
“We cannot recommend them highly enough.”
WALTER
“Chris and Kate looked after our cheeky little whippet, Walter, for his first weekend away from us and we cannot recommend them enough! Absolutely brilliant.
He was taken on numerous walks and met plenty of four-legged friends on his way! We felt very confident that Wally was in extremely safe hands and we didn’t have to worry about him all weekend... it felt like a proper break! They always made sure to let us know what he was up to and shared plenty of photos during his stay. He'll no doubt be making plenty more trips back to stay with Kate and Chris... and he can’t wait! Highly recommended.”
“She always returns a very happy pup. ”
margot
“Margot absolutely loves Kate and Chris, and she is very well looked after when she goes for her overnight stays at their lovely home, which is the perfect set up for doggy day care. Margot is treated to many wonderful walks and has free reign in Kate and Chris’s garden, which she absolutely loves. We trust Kate and Chris implicitly when looking after Margot and she always returns a very happy pup.”
beth and Kikki
“Beth and Kikki are two dogs who have A LOT of energy to burn. When they go to Chris and Kate I can rest assured that they will have a brilliant time, burning off all that energy on some lovely big walks and relaxing afterwards in the garden or by the fire. Despite their need for lots of exercise, they love their home comforts and these are a plenty at Milo & Co. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone needing both daytime and overnight care.”
