Information Abby J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any specific requests. If you could give me a basic rundown of what they like and don’t like and any behavioural issues I need to watch out for that would be great!

A typical day

I love to take the time to cater each dogs experience to their needs and enjoyment. Whether it’s long walks with new smells, some games in the garden or just having a cuddle on the sofa. I’ll make sure your dog is as loved in my home as he is in yours.

Pet care experience

I offer a fun loving, playful doggy hotel where I can provide 2 30 min walks a day and 1 long walk in a country park at weekends. This will be accompanied by lots of active play throughout your dogs stay with me. I have grown up with a dog in the house since I was born and moved out of my parents home a few years ago. While living at home, we have taken care of a variety of dogs ranging from Chihuahua to boxer. I have attended many doggy training classes and am happy to cater to all of your dogs needs. I have experience with timid/nervous dogs and also reactive dogs. Your dog will be at a home away from home. I provide regular updates to calm any nerves and reassure you of what a wonderful time your furry friend is having. I have a large 6 foot fenced garden with a locked gate, plenty of space for your pup to roam and play. I have an open plan living room/dining room area where your dog is allowed on the furniture. I am a bit of an hermit, so your dog will not be left alone for long periods of time while in my care. I am flexible with specific requests that you may have, just give me the heads up and I’ll make it happen. Feel free to contact me at any point regarding questions or arrangements regarding the needs of your pooch.

This was a repeat booking with Abby. As well as being flexible with the timing she took great care of Lucy while she was with her. I would definitely book with Abby again and thoroughly recommend her to others.

I left my Labrador for the first time and was really nervous about it. But everything turned out absolutely amazing! I received daily updates and photos and videos showing how he was doing and what he was up to. Abby truly loved him and took such great care of him, which made me feel so much calmer. When we picked him up, he was so relaxed – clearly well-walked and happily tired from all the playtime (he’s a big dog, over 40 kg, and without good exercise he gets way too active at home). This honestly exceeded all my expectations. I’m beyond happy I chose Abby – I don’t think I could have found better care for my dog. Thank you so, so much!

From the start Abby came across as an experienced dog boarder. Answered all my questions and I felt confident about leaving my little darlings with her. Offered to meet up prior…which we did and she is very much a dog lover….the pups took to her immediately. Abby collected and brought them back from our home. Whilst I was away Abby sent me pics, I relaxed knowing they were being cared for well. Happy to use again and recommend! Thanks Abby ;)

My two dogs had a great holiday stay with Abby for nearly two weeks. She obviously took good care of them and they came home happy and in good shape. Abby regularly sent pics and videos of the dogs who were very at home in her house - having lots of cuddles!
