Study at writtle college Veterinary care assistant 3 years Animal care course 1 year. Grown up with my dad who is a breeder of working labs and a trainer.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Our 1 year old Cockapoo and my daughter's 3 year old French Bulldog had never been in boarding before so we were naturally a bit worried. There was no need though as Carla cared for them as if they were her own. Carla kept us updated with videos and messages. We would highly recommend Carla.
Lola had an amazing time with Carla and even felt comfortable to go in the river which she would usually avoid at all costs! She was well cared for and came home happy and worn out. Carla communicated with us throughout Lola’s stay through messages and photos, keeping us up to date on what they were up to.
Pippin had a great time at Carla’s. He was clearly made to feel part of the family, and he even overcame his previous nervousness about cats! Helpful updates each day with pictures. Would definitely use again.
We were so happy to leave our dog with Carla and her family. She’s very friendly and welcoming and made Winnie feel right at home. We would definitely recommend her to look after your dogs!
Bean boarded with Carle for 10 nights. He had such a great time. Carle was super with him being very patient and gentle while he settled in. It didn’t take long for him to make himself at home. He was thoroughly loved and while he was pleased to see us was reluctant to leave. He would love to stay with Carle when we next go away. I’d highly recommend Carle
Great service from start to finish with Carla. All questions answered quickly and lots of info about the service and how it works from Carla as I found corresponding on the website but difficult at times. Remy had a taster sleep over before with Carla which she really enjoyed and then her week while we were on holiday. Both times Carla sent us lots of pics and updates with Remy playing and walking with either Masie, Carla's own lovely dog or with others too. She looked like she was having so much fun she wouldn't want to come home to us!! We felt very reassured that Remy was being well looked after and safe and would not hesitate to recommend Carla or book her again ourselves. 5 stars all round.

Schedule
I'm currently working from home, which allows me to provide care all day as well as walks and play. I do school runs so the only times they are left alone is when I do these morning and afternoon. On weekend we love to go for nice long farm/ forest walks. They fit in as apart.of the family, the snuggle on the sofas or bed with us the same way my dogs would.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
They have free roam of my home and garden, fence is 6ft. I've had years of experience with dog walking and caring for all animals. It truly is a great passion. I have plenty of dog beds, bowls and treats. We have 2x walks a day and weekends take trips out. I ask that you bring your pets food and lead. This is all thats required. We would complete a house visit before hand to make sure your happy with my home and make sure they are able to get along with my spaniel and child friendly.
