Pet care experience

Local to Chorleywood Common, fully-fenced garden

Hi, my family and I have been dog owners for the last 30 years. We very recently lost our beautiful giant schnauzer and would love the opportunity to care for other people's dog's. As a family, we have previously boarded a mixture of dogs including schnauzer's, a range of terrier’s, golden retriever’s and loved looking after them all. My parents would be the primary care providers as I now work full time but they are both retired and are very active. We have a large fully fenced garden, perfect for even the most mischievous dog! (it's been tested). Walking distance from Chorleywood Common, making for great dog walks. Look forward to hearing from you and meeting your dogs!

It's always such a pleasure leaving Cuba with Peter, Atsuko and Alissa. They are just wonderful and Cuba has the best time with them, he really is on great hands. I'm sure he's looking forward to his next booking with them!

This is the second time we have left Bruno in Alissa's care,secure in the knowledge that he's being well looked after. Each time he has come back happy and relaxed. I thoroughly recommend using to look after your pet.

Nothing but good things to say about Frank’s 3 night stay with Peter & his family! Frank can be quite anxious when left without us in new surroundings but Peter was fantastic at providing regular updates, letting us know all was well & that Frank had settled in quickly.

I would not hesitate to leave Monty in Peter's care again. It's clear he had a great time with Peter and family. I also really appreciated the regular photo updates!

Couldn't have asked for better dog sitters! Alissa and her parents were fantastic. Lots of communication and pictures. We truly felt that our dog was in great hands - he looked like he had great fun with them. I'm sure he will be really happy to go back there and see them again!

Schedule

As long term dog owners who only recently lost our dog, we're already very used to moulding our day around caring for a dog and lot's of dog walks. My parents are both retired and I am there most evenings so your dog will aways be very well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

We would very much treat your dog like we would our own. From letting them explore the fully fenced garden, to letting them curl up with us in the living room in the evening.

A typical day

A lot of walks to Chorleywood Common and around local fields/wood's for variation. Then belly rub's and playtime at home! Hoping yours is as good at catch as our pepper was.
