A home away from home for your furbaby❤️

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Abigail! I’m a passionate pet sitter and carer for animals. I’m a trustworthy, reliable person with a genuine love for animals, especially dogs! I have several years of experience, both as a dog owner and walking/ pet sitting for friends and family members. I understand the importance and need to provide an environment that’s safe, nurturing, and comfortable for your furry companions when you’re away! Therefore, I am committed to make sure that your pets are happy and well looked after in my home- whether that’s feeding, playing, walking or giving lots of love and attention. Your pets well-being is my No.1 priority and I strive to bond with and treat your furbaby like my very own! A little about staying with us: your furbaby will be able to sleep wherever they please, if that’s in our bed or somewhere else! We have a near to 100ft garden with lots of space for playtime (6ft fences and no areas to escape), a huge selection of dog toys for the furbabies to play with and of course if they bring anything of their own. Benji is the friendliest of dogs and he’s very well socialised to both small and big breeds! He does get very excited initially on meeting both dogs and humans lol but settles within the first 10 minutes (he gets zoomies over the fact he has a new friend to play with)🐶. I know how anxious dogs can get in new environments so I do my best to stick to their routine and provide lots of love and affection but also allow them time alone and a safe space to be in! I will ensure that they have a designated area or safe space where they can feel secure and comfortable with their bedding, toys, and any other belongings they bring along with them. I am dedicated to maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners. I will provide regular pupdates, including photos and videos of what we’ve been up to, in order to keep them informed about their pet's well-being, activities, and anything else important they may need to know! Overall, myself, Jake and Benji are dedicated to establish a strong bond with the animals we care for, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay with us. We look forward to meeting your furry companions🐶🐾❤️.

Abby is so lovely and caring with Billy, Billy feels safe and at home with her. He loves playing with Benji in their garden. He has odd eating habits which Abby monitors and takes care of. Abby is a truly wonderful human x

Just wanted to say a very big thank you to Abigail for the outstanding care she provided to our 5 year old standard dachshund Bibi. Bibi was excited to return to see Benji after the trial, and ran in to play with him. Abigail made sure that Bibi got lots of cuddles when she was upset the first night and Bibi quickly settled in. She sent regular updates and although Bibi can be very stubborn on walks Abigail made sure she got out and had lots of playtime opportunities. The kids commented how nicely Bibi smelt on her return! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abigail her care and attention to detail was outstanding.

I have a dog of my own that they will get to know, his name is Benji and he is a 5 year old Cavapoo- he gets along with any dog and has a soft, playful nature. I usually walk morning and evening, but am happy to increase/ decrease for your pets need. I will keep to your furry companions routine as advised to make sure there’s not stress or anxiety for them. PLEASE READ: Dog Boarding - We always insist that we host a day trial for your furbabies. This is to see how they get on for a day with us - to make sure they get along with Benji and to make sure you’re happy with us and the environment as well! It sometimes eases the anxiety for the dogs to meet us before boarding with us, so at least they’re coming somewhere familiar🤍. Doggy Daycare - Doggy daycare includes up to two walks a day (depending on hours), feeding if required and lots of love and attention! Please let me know whether you’re happy for us to have other dogs for daycare/ boarding in advance so we can tailor bookings to suitability🥰. Drop-in visits - Now offering drop in visits for both dogs and cats🐶🐱. Walking - We will arrange a meet and greet beforehand and set a route that will be used when walking your furry friend!

Information Abigail K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any routines, special requirements and a little bit about your dog. For eg. Dietary requirements, amount/ length of walks, their feeding routines, medication. We will also arrange a meet and greet daycare trial to make sure your furbaby gets along with ours! PLEASE LET ME KNOW- if your furbaby is a rescue and how long they’ve been with you, it’s important that I provide the right environment for them during their stay❤️.

A typical day

I aim to enrich your dogs both physically and mentally throughout the day! They will be greeted by Benji, then settled in establishing their safe space for the duration of their stay. Then we’ll head out checking out the sights and smells in the local neighbourhood, sniffing to their hearts content. Followed by lots of play time and cuddles throughout the day then a comfortable bed to sleep in at bedtime. We also like to explore new places for walkies at the weekends, so your furry companion will get a day out and about whilst staying with us!
