Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog First Aid Trained, Insured with PetPlan.
Hi, I have grown up with Dogs from Cocker Spaniels at the age of 13 to volunteering with Guide Dogs and becoming a Dog Owner in 2019. I spend every moment with lots of different dogs and helping out friends with their fur babies. I guarantee your fur baby will love their time with me, with a safe, calm environment with our resident non-intact Labrador, Alfie who you would think is 14 with the amount of time he spends sleeping but is instead 6. A lovely walk that will leave them sleeping most the afternoon away and toys, beds and water on the plenty. I can accommodate any specific instructions such as no treats, not on the sofa, no upstairs etc just let me know the rules in your house and they will be implemented here.

Ratings and reviews
Ozzy had a lovely time. He had a very nice walk, looks like he ate his lunch, and has been snoozing happily since!
Ozzy tells us he has a great time!! He came home happy and snoozed most of the next day! Alistair kept us in the loop about how his day was going with messages and photos/videos. Ozzy would happily visit again.
Alistair has been a pleasure to deal with and Mylo didn’t want to go home 😆 Mylo had fun during his stay and is a tired pup after the day! No complaints from me (or Mylo!) Would happily recommend a stay with Alistair 🙂
Alistair and Alfie have been amazing with Shadow. We will not hesitate to book him again!
Fabulous care for Woody, as always. Alistair is so accommodating and provides excellent care.
As always, Alistair provides exceptional care for Woody. Fantastic information each week. Really supportive in continuing to train Woody as he navigates adolescence. Can't fault the care and attention Woody receives. Thanks, as always.

Schedule
I work from home so your fur baby will be walked in the morning and again around 16:30, they will also be let out during the day as needed but I have a general rule of every 2 hours so theres no stressed out pups. Drop off and pick up doesn’t really matter to us as its all part of our routine however I will keep weekends free on the majority of cases.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced and tiered garden, with an extra set of gates to avoid any accidents. If you would like your fur baby to be crated then I would ask that you bring your own crate. Your pet will be joined by our resident Labrador Alfie who is very calm and sleeps most the day, he is well socialised and used to lots of other dogs, he was a trainee Guide Dog and helps us when we volunteer.

A typical day
A typical day will start with a walk if dropped off prior to 09:00. It will then involve some play time in the garden at 12:30 with a natural treat, and another walk around 16:30. Toilet breaks throughout the day although I find they tend to sleep.
