Pet care experience

Dog loving family

Hi I'm Ben, I live on my own with my two children Sophie (9) and Jack (7) who absolutely adore dogs and are very sensible around them. Soph and Jack are with me for a week at a time - week on week off so sometimes it will just be me looking after your dog. We consider dogs to be a part of the family.

Once again Milo has had a great time with Ben and has been well looked after. Great photos from his weekend away too. Ben makes us feel very comfortable that Milo is in good hands.

Coco had a lovely time with Ben and his children. They looked after her really well. We were very grateful that they took Coco at quite short notice and would be very happy for Coco to stay with Ben again.

Ben and his family always take such good care of Ron. He was a little poorly on this occasion and Ben kept us informed and cared for Ron until we could pick him up.

Schedule

I'm a marketing manager for a charity based in Birmingham and can work from my home or we have an office dog policy so can take them into work with me. Long story short, your dog won't be left alone for any long period of time when they are staying with us.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 3 bedroom house with a nice fully enclosed garden and plenty of parks and beautiful countryside on our doorstep. We haven't taken the plunge and got a dog of our own (yet) but we love dogs and live vicariously through our friends and their pets. We're always out walking (with or without a mutt in tow) and often have dogs to stay when friends or family are away on holiday. I always had dogs growing up and both my sisters have dogs too so we visit them whenever we can. I'll be the one looking after the dogs day to day, but the kids won't be far away and ready for endless fuss and play. We'd be so happy to have your dog come and stay so you can rest assured that they will be very well looked after.

A typical day

Your dog will be loved and fussed and walked and played with as much or as little as they want and need. There are parks and walks and beautiful countryside right on our doorstep.
