Reviews for Short Legs Dog Care




Calm, Paw-fessional and Kind
From our initial call with Chris it's so clear she's so kind, gentle, professional and cares deepening about your dogs needs.
Chris handled Amber on the day with such care and ease, making sure she was comfortable and happy - as well as perfectly on schedule for her ring bearer duties. She got Amber prepped, calm and fed - before adding her flower collar and rings for her ring bearing duties. Thanks for making her look amazing!
She was flexible on the day, helping with photos and taking Amber around to our guests and accommodating when we wanted Amber to be with us too. Spotting when she needed water and a quick toilet.
What truly stood out was how personable and warm Chris was with us, our dog and our guests too.
Our guests commented how great she was and they assumed she was a family/friend because of how well she handled Amber and how Amber settled with her through the whole day.
Chris had even messaged beforehand to ask what our bridal party were wearing so she'd fit in - she was dressed impeccably as well as having a stash of her own treats for Amber (which she had checked on our initial call about any dietary needs).
Chris took Amber back to our Airbnb and stayed there into the evening with Amber-pup and a few days later sent us pics of Amber enjoying their time together (Amber of course snoozing!). Chris closed blinds in our Airbnb for us ahead of us returning, left notes and was just fab - so thoughtful and respectful!
With thanks to her help, we were able to fully enjoy her day knowing that our furry family member was in the best hands.
We really recommend Chris and her kind nature - she's fantastic!
Amazing dog sitting service!!
Our dog seemed really happy and content in Chris’ care - highly recommend:)
Chris was Amazing
Chris was extremely attentive, squeaking a toy so Lola looked up at the camera, bringing her to see me while I was getting ready and making sure to take her for plenty of breaks so she didn’t get overwhelmed.
I genuinely cannot recommend Chris enough. Thank you for making our wedding day even more special!

Best Stress Free Dog Care
Amazing service to make your special day stress free!
Ralph’s new best friend
No fuss - Chris was on time and quickly took control of looking after Ralph meaning no one else needed to worry about him.
Love of dogs - Chris got on amazingly with Ralph and he was very happy in her company. He snuggled up to her for warmth and seemed calm with her even in the big crowds of people.
Photo opportunities - having Chris there made Ralph bringing the rings down the aisle so easy. She kept him quiet during the ceremony and worked brilliantly with the venue to keep him hidden until the big entrance. Whilst we were having our photos taken she was also always on hand to pass him over when we needed him and keep him busy for the other photos. She also had some great tricks up her sleeve to make sure he was looking in the right direction for the pictures.
After care - I was a little worried about Ralph going to the kennels afterwards but Chris sorted everything. Making sure he was settled before leaving him for the night. We didn’t have any issues and I didn’t need to worry at all.
We would definitely recommend booking Chris if you are considering her for your wedding!
The best thing we did for our big day

Chris is outstanding. We cannot recommend her enough.
Chris brought Teddie and Winnie to the ceremony, and they behaved impeccably—all thanks to her gentle guidance and expert care. Our guests absolutely adored her, and her professionalism shone through in every detail. She was impeccably dressed, adding even more elegance to the day, and her warm presence made everything feel seamless. She truly went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
Chris played such a special role in our wedding, and we will always be grateful for her kindness and dedication. If you’re looking for someone to care for your dogs on your big day, look no further—Chris is simply amazing!
Thanks Chris love Nicki , Duds, Teddie and Winnie xx
