Dog sitter in the country side

Hello, I have plenty of experience with dogs and I know Bran has a great life here. There's no badness in him at all. If the dogs don't get along I can separate them but that probably won't happen as he's delighted to have someone to play with.

Second time staying with Brendan and Bran and Hopkins was very excited to go back, ran in the door, which is the best review I could possibly give. Thanks so much for minding our strange little man. :-)

Brendan really looked after Hopkins, sent lots of pictures and videos and was very kind to him, took him for walks, gave him lots of cuddles, and was very understanding of him. Hopkins arrived back in great form, and was very happy to see Brendan the second time he stayed :-) Thank you so much :-)

Excellent service. Brendan was brilliant with bubbles. Bubbles is a rescue dog and can be very nervous but bubbles loved his time with Brendan. I would highly recommend Brendan and will certainly be using this service again.

Poppy had an amazing time and has been flat out asleep since I collected her. I got lovely videos of Poppy playing with resident dog Bran updating me during the day. Definitely recommend!

Schedule

My name is Brendan and I live in a nice little house in the country side. My back yard is about 10m x. 20m and is fully enclosed with a 5ft fence. I bring Bran for walks down my landlords 100 acre farm, twice a day for his walks. I also go to Mooghaun. Your dog will be kept on a lead at all times. Bran likes to do his own thing and I have a tracker on him. I'm self employed at the moment so I'm at jome a lot. I'm trying to get a Wedding Car Hire and a Sauna Hire Business up and running so I have a lot of spare time on my hands. I also have a Ford Ranger with an enclosed back for transporting dogs. My dog Bran loves to play and run around the garden with his friends when they call. They get on great. He gets on with most dogs of his size. Can be guilty of small dog syndrome when meeting a large male dog. So I prefer not to sit large male dogs. Only medium and small. But I would mind large female dogs as he is in his element there.

Brendan can host up to 3 pets per night
I prefer dogs that are not too rough when playing. Bran isn't a big dog and larger dogs that are full of energy can be tough on him. He enjoys it but I think it can be a bit unfair to him.
