Highlights
Pet care experience
Epsom Pet Retreat - A Caring and Trusted home...
My husband has always loved and cared for dogs ever since he was a child. At one point of time, they had 9 dogs. When I got married to him several years back, I automatically fell in love with these adorable creatures and since then have had dogs of our own. We are a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 teenagers. All of us love dogs and each of us has a special bond with our own dog Fudge. We completely understand the importance of finding a caring, safe environment for your fur baby and you can rest assured that your pet would be happy and comfortable in our home getting affection from all of us, going for walks in the neighbouring nature reserve and playing with our dog in our large fenced garden.

Ratings and reviews
Kobi stayed with Abby and her family for his longest visit yet. He was very well looked after and we were kept well updated. He got on particularly well with another visiting dog and we had some lovely videos of them playing together! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abby.
Abby and her husband were excellent hosts. They were attentive but relaxed and took everything in their stride. I would definitely book them again!
Our boy had a wonderful time with Abby and her family. They looked after him so well - he went on wonderful walks and was very happy there - not sure he wanted to come home and is certainly missing his new fur pals he made during his stay. Great communication before and during his stay. Can't thank you enough and would not hesitate to recommend.
Togo had a great time with Abby and her lovely family. My mind was at ease with regular updates, and Abby went out of her way to understand his needs. He was so well cared for, I don’t think he wanted to go home! Thank you Abby, we couldn’t be happier and will be reaching out to you again in the future with no hesitation!
Second time I have used Abby and she is absolutely fantastic - my dog is so happy there. Happily recommend
Coco had a lovely time with Abby and family. It seems she made herself completely at home! Abby sent updates so I knew all ok throughout our trip. Will book again.

Schedule
I work part time and only work for a few hours in the evening when my children and husband are at home. My husband also works from home so your dog would always have a companion during the day. I take the dogs for a long walk in the morning in the nature reserve and my husband or my children take them in the evenings. One of us is always around to let your pet out every 2-4 hours for toilet breaks. Our dog loves to play in our garden and would love the company. He's a very calm and relaxed dog.
