"Ursula is a fabulous lady and I trust her completely to care for my dog Yummy when I'm away. I can recommend her entirely.

Yummy is very happy when staying with Ursula and he is groomed and cared for to perfection. More importantly than my satisfaction - Yummy likes staying with her.

P.S. I'll look forward to meeting your dog next time I stay with Ursula - woof!"

"I have been using 'Love Your Pet Minding' for the past 10 months. I have found Ursula to be extremely professional, loving, and caring with my cat Bella. I would highly recommend this company to all my clients and friends

What impressed me the most was the atrium space where Bella could safely play and enjoy the sunny space outdoors within the security of a high walled enclosure."

Having just picked up my puppy (Ziggy) after a two week stay with you, I just had to put pen to paper to thank you for the rather amazing personal care your organisation had taken to ensure his stay was as comfortable as it would have been at home.

Having explained to you at the outset that my puppy and I shared most things, eg bed, food, daytime hours, imagine my delight in finding a minding organisation that treated him the same way.

Over the years of placing several pets with several minding services, kennels etc, I had found that on all occasions the pet came home a little the worse for wear, either physically or mentally. Not so with your Love Your Pet Minding Co.

Again, thank you, I will most cetainly use your organisation again and quite possibly soon. I will not hesitate to recommend your service to my colleagues and friends.

"Our boy Buster's a fussy fellow, and we worried about him fretting if we left him with somebody else, but he loved staying with Ursula and her gang. His affection for them was obvious when he licked the whole family goodbye (even the cat).

He was particularly fond of sleeping on the bed (because now he insists on it at home). We never thought it possible, but now believe somebody spoiled Buster more than us. We'll happily send him on holidays with Ursula again. It's a much better option for little canine people than a boarding kennel. Buster was obviously well loved and cared for - even got a beard trim!"

" Hi, my name is ‘Benny’. Recently my mum went away and brought me to Ursula’s place. At first I wasn’t happy being left on my own but, boy, what a weekend I had. I made a whole new gang of friends, like ‘Bliss’, ‘Sugar’ and ‘Harry’, and was even reunited with one dog friend I knew from the park. Sure beats being at home on your own! My new gang and I hung out and played all day then Ursula would take us for lots of walks in the park and treat us all the time. Sorry mum, if you’re reading this, but you’re up for some stiff competition when it comes to fun and hanging out. Luckily I’ve been back to Ursula’s a few times since. Sometimes mum takes me walking in the park across from Ursula’s and I run to her gate and look longingly in. Anyway, I recommend Ursula’s place to all you pooches out there. It gets more than five stars from me! "

" Miss Porscha was 14 and suffering from early stages of doggie dementia, and Dougal was a very cute 14 weeks when we had to go away . I was loathe to leave either dog as they are both so special. Luckily we found “Ursula” and after meeting both dogs at her home she said of course she would have them for a week. It was with some trepidation that I dropped them off at Ursula’s house. Porscha is timid and silly with other dogs, I have never seen her so calm in a strange environment, almost immediately. And Dougal well he thought he had gone to puppy heaven. 2 dogs and a great cat, who acts like a dog to play with! In fact I think Dougal bonded with Misty instantly! Poor misty! Porscha was treated in a beautiful calm manner with great consideration for her age, and Dougal was loved and trained to walk on the lead properly, even though he had so much excitement at Ursula’s that he forgot his Toilet training! (much to my dismay!) Nothing was a bother for Ursula and I felt so at ease by the time I left them and only rang once to check on them such was my confidence. Dougal and Porscha have been back since that first visit, and I know look forward to catching up with Ursula, Bliss and Sugar and especially Misty in the future. "

" We have used the services of Ursula many times of the course of the past 18 months. We have total confidence in trusting our most treasured family members, Ella and Sophie, into her care and going away with peace of mind knowing that they'll be treated with the same special attention as they are used to at home. We particularly appreciate the personalised care they receive from Ursula. For the period of time they stay with her, they become an extension of her own family and enjoy going out to tennis, walks in the park, etc. We feel like we're dropping Ella and Sophie off at a friend's place. After a horrible experience with one of the "better" boarding kennels around Melbourne, we are so grateful to have found Ursula and highly recommend her services. "

" I think it’s always a little weird knowing that there is a stranger staying in your house. There’s also the worry of your animals and hoping everything will be ok. I have to say that it was incredibly comforting knowing that Emma was staying at our home and our dogs were being cared for by a “doggy” person, which meant they would get the little extra’s that only a dog lover can give. We returned from our holiday to find our home as if there had never been anyone staying there. It was exactly how we left it, and our dogs welcomed us back looking and behaving exactly as we had left them. I would have no hesitation in using Emma again to mind our home and recommending Love Your Pets as a service. Ursula, I just wanted to say thank you. We were able to enjoy our holiday and relax that much more knowing that everything was taken care of here. Please pass on our thanks to Emma as well. I look forward to our next holiday, and the opportunity to use your services again. "
