Availability
▫️I work full time from home, so the dogs are rarely left alone 😊 We usually start the day with a walk around the local park or river, followed by a longer evening walk ☀️ ▫️If I have more than 3 dogs at a time (including my own), I’ll split walks to keep things calm and make sure everyone gets equal attention. I also occasionally book enclosed dog fields for safe off-lead/free-run time 🐶 ▫️I believe rest is just as important as exercise in a multi-dog home, so the dogs all get time to relax and properly switch off during the day. 🤍 Dogs are a huge part of my life, so your dog will be treated like part of the family while they’re here 💛

Safety, trust & environment
▪️I’m happy to accommodate anything you need for your pet, every foster comes with their own set of needs and accommodations so I’m used to putting different things in place, to keep them comfortable and happy 💛 ▪️My garden is fenced with a grass and patio section. We can exercise with on lead and off lead walks or enclosed fields if you’d prefer! Whatever makes your dog happy!
Home
Information Briony B. would like to know about your pet
▪️Let me know if your dog isn’t crate trained, isn’t house trained or has any reactivity, resource guarding or nervousness. If there’s any training you’re working on and want me to be consistent with, also let me know that too 😊
A typical day
▫️Depending on your pets needs, I love a slow sniffy walk along the river or the higher energy dogs can go for a big run around. ▫️We play lots in the house and I have a huge collection of lickimats and enrichment toys to entertain them too!

Pet care experience
▪️I provide a calm, safe, home-from-home environment for your dog while you’re away -whether that’s for daycare or longer stays 🤍 Dogs are given space to settle, play, and relax at their own pace in a quiet, low-pressure home. ▪️I regularly foster behavioural dogs for rehabilitation, so I’m very comfortable working with nervous, quirky, or reactive dogs and always happy to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. ▪️At home I have two friendly sporting dogs - a collie and a whippet - who are both used to having visiting dogs stay with us 🌟 To keep things calm and safe, I only take a small number of dogs at a time. ▪️Meet & greets are always welcome, you’re very welcome to come inside and let your dog have a sniff around, however initial dog introductions will take place outside first - either in the garden on lead or preferably on a walk at our local park 🐶 I’ve found this helps keep everyone calm, relaxed, and set up for the best possible stay together - don’t hesitate to let me know if a different approach would work better for your dog though. ▪️I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away 💛
Reviews
Nelly really enjoyed her first day with Briony. It was immediately apparent that Briony has a natural way with dogs. Thank you Briony
Briony has been so helpful with our reactive dog. The updates were great and showed him having a great time. Would fullly recommend.
I honestly couldn’t imagine leaving Reggie with anybody else, the care, time and effort Briony clearly puts in to ensure he’s content and happy is priceless 🥹 another great stay for Reggie Roo 🐾🐕🦺🦴
Last minute drop in was no problem at all. Amazing to find a sitter/walker that understands cocos quirks! Very greatful ☺️
