We’re a fun couple who love looking after dogs

Pet care experience

Having grown up surrounded by the companionship of dogs, my wife and I have a good understanding and genuine love for our four-legged friends. Our experience extends to caring for older dogs, where patience and attentiveness are crucial. Additionally, our relocation from South Africa to the UK involved seamlessly bringing two beloved dogs with us, demonstrating adaptability and a commitment to ensuring their well-being. Our lives have been enriched by the constant presence of canine companions, fostering a natural ability to connect with them on both a practical and emotional level. We’re confident in our capacity to provide a safe, loving, and enjoyable environment for any dog entrusted to our care.

Bear had such a great time with Calvin and Abby. They were so kind, patient and made every effort to keep us up to date about her adventures. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you both!

Cosmo clearly enjoyed his time with Calvin and Abby. We had regular updates while we were away and we were delighted to see that he had settled in and was clearly very comfortable and getting lots of attention. We would not hesitate to have Cosmo stay with Calvin and Abby again. Thank you!

Calvin and his wife are the nicest couple who treated Zaha 🐕 like part of their family. I received photos every day and great feedback about the whereabouts of my little dachshund. They took Zaha for walks at Richmond Park, set her a doggie bed near Calvin’s home office, offered her toys and I can tell she received cuddles and attention. I felt very relaxed leaving Zaha with them. I would highly recommend them and book them again in the future!

Calvin and his wife are simply the nicest people. Our small working cocker approaches all new experiences with a great deal of enthusiasm and they were perfectly relaxed while she did so before settling into her weekend away. They sent pictures, took her for good long walks and on discovering her penchant for smelly water bathed her on her return to their house - spa treatment she doesn’t get at home! Their house and garden are secure and we were able to relax knowing that she was in capable and experienced hands. We will definitely be asking for future dates and can highly recommend.
