Our Jack Russell is so happy here.. I cannot recommend Happy at Woof's enough. We are so lucky to be able to bring Smithy here and know he is getting all the cuddles and attention he is used to (and then some). Thanks Ruth!

Ruth says:
Thanks for your lovely feedback Manous, we love having Smithy to stay!

Millie Bowie says:
We are delighted with the care Tommy receives at Happy at Woof’s. He’s always so pleased to see Ruth and has a great holiday with her. We go on holiday with the peace of mind that Tommy is being loved and cared for.

Jane says:
Our little poodle Mitsy loves going to Ruth's for her holidays! We can go away safe in the knowledge that Mitsy is loved and well cared for. Friends in Fareham use Ruth for walking and boarding which is great continuity for their dogs. Unfortunately we're just a little too for away for walks. We cannot recommend Happy at Woof's enough, truly a hone from home. Thank you Ruth!

Ruth says:
Dear Jane, Thank you for your lovely feedback. Mitsy is a dream, such a character and loved by all! I wish I could walk her as well as boarding but unfortunately Lee's a wee bit too far. See you soon. Best wishes, Ruth

Toby says:
Ruth is fantastic with our 3 year old lab Ozzy, he has such a good time with her! We particularly like the care Ruth takes to ensure that the dogs that board with her all get along very well. If you want a home from home for your dog Happy at Ruth's is where it's at!

Liz Blacklock says:
We have known Ruth for a long time and our dogs have always been great pals playing at footie matches. Absolutely thrilled that Ruth has started ' Happy at Woofs'.Alfie has now been to board with Ruth several times and has an absolute ball staying with Ruth and her family. Ruth treats all her boarders as if they are her own pets. They get all the love, attention and care that they would if they were home with you. Ruth also walks Alfie for me on a daily basis. he has an absolute blast. Really fantastic exercise and socialization. Highly recommended... ***** 5 stars. Please though don't get too busy so we cant get Alfie in!! xxx

Natalie says:
Highly recommend Ruth. Our big puppy Dalton is very happy going to stay with Ruth and the family for the day or overnight. Very welcoming and well set up. Like the pictures sent through as reassurance during his times on his "hols".

Ruth Johnson says:
Natalie, thanks so much for your lovely review! Dalton's an absolute pleasure, we love having him to stay! Best wishes Ruth

Sarah says:
Happy at woofs really helped us out when we needed someone to look after our two dogs during and after the birth of our child. Ruth was absolutely fantastic from receiving the initial enquiry, meeting the dogs, to taking the dogs at short notice and recieving a call in the middle of the night when labour began. All of this whilst working within the limits of the Covid lockdown. The dogs absolutely loved it there which made our special time absolutely worry free. In fact by the looks of the great pictures Ruth sent every day updating on what the boys had been upto it was just a great little holiday for them! My labrador Toby loved it so much when I went to pick him up, he strolled out with a toy to say hi then went back inside. You can't ask for much more reassurance than that, it certainly is 'Happy at woofs'. I'm thrilled we have found someone we can trust and somewhere where the dogs are so happy. Thank you!

Ruth Johnson says:
Hi Sarah, such a pleasure to have the boys, they were an absolute delight! Best wishes, Ruth

Becki & Ryan says:
We found Happy At Woofs from the posters along the deviation line in Fareham during lockdown. Our dog, Barry, had never been left someone outside of the family so this was a big step for us (probably more than Barry). He has been to Ruth’s a few times now, and as soon as he know’s where he is he is chomping at the bit to get into Ruth’s house. He has a great time playing with Ruth’s family and it’s great for us to feel comfortable to leave him with Ruth for the day/night. We have no hesitation in recommending Ruth, she is very professional and friendly. And it’s also lovely to get little updates from Ruth throughout Barry’s stay.

Ruth Johnson says:
Hi Becky, thanks for your lovely review! Barry's a wee cracker, we love having him :) Best wishes, Ruth

Liz says:
Hi Ruth. Thank you so much for looking after Luna which meant we could relax and enjoy our daughters wedding knowing Luna was having a great time with you. I loved receiving the photos of Luna clearly enjoying her walks and time with you and your family. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

Ruth says:
Hi Liz, So sorry I missed your lovely review! Thank you very much :) It was an absolute pleasure having Luna, she's a real sweetie :) So glad you had a fab day! Very best wishes, Ruth

Ursula says:
Ruth was recommended to me by a friend. Our dog is a rescue who we took ownership of in September 2020 & we had never left her with anyone before. On meeting Ruth I knew she was the right person to look after Perla! Ruth has such a gentle manner & the perfect home set up for pup-sitting. She was spoiled rotten by Ruth & her family and I wouldn't hesitate to ask her to look after Perla again. X
REPLY
Ruth Johnson says:
Thanks very much for your kind review Ursula. An absolute pleasure having Perla to stay, what a wee beauty she is : ) xxx

Thank you so much Ruth for giving Sheldon the love and attention as always during his “holiday” with you, and peace of mind you certainly give us knowing how lovely you are with the anime you care for. X

Always a pleasure Irene! xxx

Irene Tayler says:
Our dog Sheldon is very happy to go to Happy ???? at Woofs. A lovely family home and atmosphere. Ruth takes the dogs out for plenty of walks and goes beyond expectations. The occasional photo is always welcome. We would go as far as only having a holiday if Sheldon can have his holiday at Ruth’s Happy at Woofs. Highly recommended.
REPLY
Ruth says:
Aww bless you Irene. Thanks for another kind review. We love Sheldon xxx
