My husband Daniel and I are professionals and both work full time. 80% of our time is working from home. One of us is always home as we both manage the family routine and children. We have experience with dogs with separation anxiety and are well equipped with dogs who haven't quite mastered toilet training. We have 2 dachshunds, mother and son, and have 2 cats. We offer daily walks and support in a family home with two boys aged 9 and 14.

Pet care experience

We are a family of four with two children aged 9 and 14, along with two dachshunds and two cats. We provide a true “home-from-home” experience for small breeds, with a secure garden and plenty of local walking routes. As we both work from home, your pet will receive constant care and attention. We have extensive experience in animal behaviour and have been fostering dogs and cats for over 10 years. We’re passionate about helping others and are particularly well-equipped to support families with dogs who experience separation anxiety. When you book our services through Rover, your pet is covered by the Rover Guarantee. In addition, we hold our own pet business public liability insurance for extra peace of mind. We do ask that all owners have appropriate pet insurance in place to cover any unexpected health issues or veterinary care.

Bella had the best time with Annabel and her gorgeous daxies... the pics were incredible and she clearly was very happy there. Looking forward to her next visit already. Thank you so much for minding our girl so well.
