Adventure walks & boarding - 2000m2 garden
Pet care experience
My love of animals and experience has been lifelong, starting as a Kennel Girl at the local vet aged 15, taking cats and dogs to local shows and having a multitude of my own pets. I focused on biology and studied animal behaviour at Bristol University and after a ‘pet career break’ I have returned to my original love and started working dogs in and around Farnham. Currently studying dog grooming at Merrist Wood I hope to offer this as an additional service, alongside doggie daycare and sitting, in the near future. Watch this space! Experienced and relaxed with a wide variety of dogs, including those with high anxiety and young dogs who need their training reinforced. All walks include an element of play and foraging to allow dogs to use their senses in a natural way.
Reviews
Caroline took care to make sure Jonty settled in and it was lovely to receive pictures and videos showing him having a great time.
Caroline was great and sent photos of Minnie throughout the day. Minnie seemed happy and content when we picked her up. We would definitely use her again.
Woody absolutely loves going to Caroline’s! Always seems to be having fun. Caroline will always keep you posted on what your pet is up to and has been accommodating with us if we have been running late etc to pick Woody up. I’d highly recommend her.
Caroline has been great looking after our dog whilst we were away. I was reassured throughout the week that she was settling in and all was ok. Photos and messages really made a difference. She clearly had a busy, fun time but also time for fuss, snoozing and watching the T.V !! We really feel she was looked after and cared for. Thank you ! Would be happy to recommend and rebook.

Safety, trust & environment
For boarders, we have a large (25x50m) secure garden with trees, grass and plants, places to dig, play and hide and lots of exciting smells from the local squirrels, hedgehogs and other wildlife. Lots of space to play, run, fetch and snuffle. The dogs have fairly constant access to the outside and plenty of company all day, with a couple of outings per day and lots of cuddles in the evening. The focus is that they are very much part of the family, whilst they are here and have as much wild roving time as possible in their day. Happy to cater to your dogs personal needs and preferences such as crating, special diets etc. I will also keep to your rules/training for instance, the dogs are allowed on the sofa etc, if this is behaviour they exhibit at their homes. We have our own playful cockapoo who is happy to keep your doggie company. I will also make sure your dog is well brushed and clean, should they stay over.
Home
Information Caroline W. would like to know about your pet
Do they have any special needs or diet needs? Are they comfortable with children (if staying) and other dogs (walks/daycare/boarding)? What do they enjoy doing re play or walks e.g. swimming/fetch etc? Age and any health conditions
A typical day
They'll have a wild walk in the local Farnham woods, ponds or heathland every day, plus plenty of play and cuddles. There is constant garden access with trees, grass, digging and water play available depending on the time of year. I like to stimulate all their senses with additional games such as seeking, fetch, foraging and agility.
