Let us know where your pet prefers to sleep – we have a spare room with a double bed and laminate flooring, our kitchen is available and there is always our bed for those pampered pets! Tess is crate trained and stays in her crate most nights so she won’t be free roaming around your pet. We do have a petcam in case your pooch would prefer to sleep elsewhere, which notifies us of any sound or movement so we can keep a close eye. In terms of feline friends, we know it can be extremely stressful for cats to be away from home. We have a designated room for our cats with everything they could possibly need, and your cat won’t be treated any differently. The spare room has plenty of hiding places, and we do also have a petcam so we can check they are eating and toileting. There’s also a windowsill with some lovely views of birds, this also offers some lovely sunbathing spots! We do use wood pellet litter for our cats, if your cat would prefer something else, please provide this when dropping off. We ask that you provide us with your pet’s food and confirm what kind of treats they like, as well as any allergies or intolerances. It would also help if you could let us know of any training your dog has so we can keep their brains entertained! We have plenty of puzzle feeders, snuffle mats and other enrichment toys to keep them ticking over. We do ask your confirm if your dog is recall trained and knows any basic commands too. When dropping your pets off, we would ask you bring - Their food and any treats (we will supply treats too) - Any toys they absolutely love - Blanket with the smell of home on - Bed if your pet prefers their own bed - Litter for cats who will not use wood pellets - Litter for small furries - Change of bedding for small furries (we have straw and hay available) - Collars/harnesses - Collar with a legal tag on - Lead - Any specialist shampoo if your dog isn’t ok with Bugalugs - Home for small furries – rats, hamsters etc - Any medication, including flea or worming treatment if needed during stay You don’t need to provide - Poo bags – we have plenty! - Wipes/towels - A huge amount of toys. A few is ok!

Our dog walks depend on the dog. We can do as little or as long as they require, please make sure you let us know in advance what your dog’s capabilities are with walking. We can offer up to an hour in the morning, half an hour at lunch and over an hour in the evenings, weekends and bank holidays sometimes feature trips to the beach or Lake District if your pooch is ok in the car. We live close to both open and secure fields. We visit secure fields at least once a week with Tess, so even if your dog isn’t able to be off lead whilst on their everyday walks, they get the opportunity to have a big run around without the worry of them getting loose. We do also attend a ‘small dogs’ group on a Sunday, and a spaniel meet on a Saturday which is in a 2.5 acre field. Let us know if your dog would be happy coming along too! We live near a few parks and there are many walking routes in our local area that are dog friendly. Let us know how your dog is in the car for weekend trips to the beach.
