Safety, trust & environment

Our dogs have their own dedicated room, and on sunny days they can freely access a secure garden. We believe in working collaboratively to create a plan that best suits your dog’s needs. If your dog is sociable, they are welcome to make friends in the dog room, but if they prefer their own space, we’re happy to accommodate that too. For walks, safety is our top priority, so leads are a must. Together, we can discuss your dogs behaviour on walks to ensure they have the best possible outing.

Information Alexander H. would like to know about your pet

The more details you can provide us, the better Experience your dog will have. Equally you as owners can rest easy. For example, one customer preferred their dog not to ride in the van due to travel sickness, so we adjusted our approach and tailored the walks to start and finish from the front door - eradicating any van travel.

A typical day

We’re just 5 minutes from a peaceful three mile walk that has something for every dog - whether they love trails, fields, water or woods. Plus, we’re only ten minutes from a beautiful three - mile beach. If your dog prefers retrieval stimulation, I always bring a tennis ball or an aerobie frisbee, which my dogs absolutely love.

Pets

Dogs treated better than our children 😉

Pet care experience

My wife and I are passionate Spaniel enthusiasts, having had dogs in our family all our lives. We currently share our home with two Springer Spaniels and have cared for many friends’ dogs, including Vizslas, Belgian Malinois, Boarder Collies, and Jack Russell’s - to name a few. Truth is we love all dogs. Our teenage children tend to keep to themselves. We are very active and enjoy walking or running the trails or beach walks with the spaniels if that’s what your dog prefers, we are equally as happy relaxing on the sofa with them for a good cuddle.

Alex and Lucy did a wonderful job looking after Michael our greyhound, he came home relaxed and happy. We were provided with photo updates and messages. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for quality dog care.

What a lovely home and family for your dogs to stay with. We would definitely ask them to look after our dogs again. This is the first time we had left them with anyone apart from close family. We felt reassured throughout their stay they were having a blast! Thank you.
