Pet care experience

I've grown up with pets and had animals in my house for the majority of my life. Until recently I had a wonderful Labrador who unfortunately passed away in 2024, and I miss having a canine companion in the house whilst working from home and getting my daily walks in. I live with my wife and two children (aged 8 and 10), so any dogs I look after must be Ok with children. We also have a cat, but she will most likely be out and about during the day. I live in a development with plenty of walks and woodland to explore where we can keep well away from traffic and busy roads. Find more here: instagram.com/a_dogs_best_friend_menston

Harley looked like she had the best stay with Carl and his family. It made me feel so much better seeing the photos of her enjoying herself during the stay. Thank you so much, I will definitely be booking again.

Carl is the definition of a dog lover! He is continuously looking for ways of making the dog’s life better, whether it be offering a treat, scratching an ear or taking the dog for a fabulous walk! Carl thinks that dogs thrive on new scents so he is always looking for a new area to explore together. His attention to detail is unsurpassed, he can anticipate what the dog needs and will quickly act to provide it. Should you choose Carl to look after your pet, you can rest assured they’ll be in the very best of hands.
