The Pawrents Have Spoken

★★★★★

“Susan was so friendly and really made the dogs feel at home, if there was something they didn't want to do, she moved on to the next thing, and just generally got the best poses and variation out of them. One of my dogs is particularly hyper, and Susan was able to capture her chaotic energy perfectly in the resulting photos. The service was easy to use, and I only had to wait a few days for the photos. Would definitely recommend if you want photos that make you smile, and you want a session that's just a bit different, and more creative.”

“We had a wonderful experience at Scruffy Pawtraits. Susan captured our crazy Staffie's personality perfectly and somehow managed to produce amazing photographs despite him not sitting still for a second!! Loads of props and treats available for the pup to have a great time. Would highly recommend giving this small business a go.”

Sue is a wonderful person who is really passionate about this new venture. I made a mistake with the booking but Sue amended the issue and was helpful from start to finish. My pup is very energetic and loving and Sue has captured her personality perfectly! There was plenty of stimulation and activity to keep her busy and it was fun getting involved with the activities to help get the best angles and poses. We all had a wonderful time and the results where more beautiful than I could have hoped for. Communication was brilliant and I had the photos to download the next day. The whole experience was great fun! I would definitely recommend Sue.
