Availability

I work from home full-time, which allows me to integrate pet care consistently into my day. I’m available for regular toilet breaks, feeding and supervision, with time for short walks and a longer lunchtime walk. My routine is stable and home-based, so dogs in my care are very rarely left alone.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm, structured home environment with a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor time. Dogs are supervised and not left unattended in the garden. I follow each owner’s routine closely, feeding schedules, walk frequency, sleeping arrangements and any specific boundaries. I only take on bookings I can properly commit to, so your dog will have my full attention rather than being one of many. I’m comfortable managing different temperaments and energy levels and will keep communication clear with regular updates if wanted. For house sitting, I work remotely and can maintain your dog’s normal routine in their own home where appropriate. I respect your space and keep things clean, organised and consistent while you’re away

Pet care experience

I had my own dog for over five years, so I understand the responsibility and consistency dogs need day to day. I’m comfortable with different breeds, temperaments and energy levels, and I adapt to each dog’s routine rather than forcing my own. I work from home full-time, which means your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m available for regular toilet breaks, short walks throughout the day and longer walks at lunchtime or evenings if needed. I’m relaxed but attentive. I pay attention to behaviour, mood and routine. I’ve looked after dogs in my own home, walked them alongside my own and independently, and I’m confident managing different personalities. My home environment is calm and structured, which suits most dogs well. If you’re looking for someone steady, responsible and present, not distracted or juggling multiple commitments, your dog will get consistent, attentive care here. I've developed a dog portrait photography hobby and if time allows during your dog's stay, an online folder with their best shots will be provided free of charge.

I was very nervous leaving my senior dog for the first time with a sitter but Ben was brilliant with him and put my mind at ease. My dog has quite a regime with medication which didn’t phase Ben. I received regular photos/videos which helped reassure me that my dog was ok and meant I enjoyed my break away without worrying. Will definitely book with Ben again as my dog was really happy and well looked after.

We left our flat coat with Ben for 5 days. We felt very relaxed leaving him. Ben and his partner cared for Moto - they are very good at observing the character and needs of the dogs. On top of everything, we were sent the best photos of Moto we have - after me thinking his big black coat made him unphotogenic!

Milo absolutely loved Ben and Rebeca. He’s a very high energy dog and loves to play. Ben and Rebeca accommodated this and he genuinely had the best time. I’d highly recommend to anyone wanting to leave their dogs with a home away from home! :)

Ben and Rebecca were absolutely wonderful. My pup Penny has a nervous temperament and separation anxiety, but they looked after her so well, helping her calm down, comforting her and integrating her with the other dogs in a calm, easy way. Thank you both so much! We will be returning <3
