Country-Raised, City-Based Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Ben! I live in central Manchester and offer dog boarding, walks, and drop-in visits, with plenty of love and tail wags guaranteed. I grew up in the countryside with two springer spaniels and a westie, so I’m no stranger to energetic dogs and long walkies. I’m now based in the heart of Manchester and I’ve carried that love for animals with me, regularly carimg for friends’ pets here in the city, as well as my furry family back home when I visit. Whether it’s a quick pop-in or overnight care, I treat every pet like my own. I’ve got a car, so I’m happy to travel around Greater Manchester. This is a fun side hustle for me. I have a genuine love for animals and always look forward to meeting a new furry friend!

It was our first time using Rover. Ben did great job while looking after our 2 cats and chinchilla. Communication was great, updated us with photos of our pets each time he came to feed them. 💯 recommend Ben, very polite and did everything even better then we expected. Thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I trust Ben with my two boys and it that means a lot because I don’t trust anyone with them! Ben is so kind, especially to dogs, treating all of them like his own. He has also grown up with dogs and you can tell that with his knowledge and care surrounding them. Highly recommend.

Ben is kind, caring and very responsible. He’s reliable, conscientious and works hard. He loves animals and grew up with lots of them around so he has a natural knack for caring for them.

I have had Ben house/dogsit for our Springer who is quite a handful. He is very capable with a lovely calm nature and our dog took to him right away. He clearly has grown up around dogs as he seems to know a lot about dog behavior. He also left our house tidier than when he arrived! We will certainly use Ben again and have told our friends about him.

I have a fenced back garden, with Albert Park just a balls throw away from my house, meaning giving your dog ample exercise is easy peasy. My car means that the world is your dogs oyster: I love hiking, frequently travelling into the Peak District for a walk, and often used to go for runs with my dogs growing up around the countryside of Clitheroe!

I work flexibly, so I can often accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays especially during evenings and weekends. My work changes week to week, so let me know what you need and I’ll adjust my schedule accordingly!
