Plenty of love & time to care for your family pet

Pet care experience

Having recently lost our 15 year old much loved rescue cat, Dolly we have a very deep hole & emptiness in our home so made the easy decision to open it up to caring for pets that need a safe and loving place to be while their owners are away. We have always had pets and have experience of many different types and ages. Mum has had a Kairn Terrior, a Westie and 2 Labradors and my Sister has a lovely chocolate Lab that we see regularly so we are used to different sizes of dogs however, living in an apartment now we have decided it is better to care for small to medium sized pets. Potty breaks will be frequent as we are very close to grassy areas and also happy to go for long walks in nearby parks and wooded areas. I myself am a very caring doctor who understands the needs of others, including animals and Mum is a super animal lover who is home full time, so between us we will always do our best to accommodate your requirements to make sure your pets needs are met and will be happy & relaxed while in our care. We have many friends & family members with pets so are around them frequently and both of us have done voluntary care for a dog rescue centre in Cyprus. We have a lot of love to give all types of pets and will take exceptionally good care of your fury family member as if they were our own. As an animal loving family we have experience with many types of dogs, cats, rabbits & guinea pigs. Please message for further information or enquiries of how we can help you & your precious family pet.

Paolo came back very happy and exhausted. We got lots of updates from Carol so felt happy that Paolo was well cared for. He had a lovely long walk too. Thank you both

Carol is amazing with Rolo, makes him feel so welcome & loved. Like a home away from home. This Rolos second time staying and always come home so happy and content. Carol provides a warm, safe & very loving environment for any pet staying there. Thank you so much for putting our minds at rest & being the perfect dog sitter for us. Carols communication is perfect & we enjoy seeing all the photos & hearing all about Rolos day.

Carol and Simon could not have taken better care of Echo - they fully embraced every part of his quirky personality and sent me such lovely updates so I could fully relax and enjoy my hols. At home, he sleeps on my bed but at other sitters he has slept downstairs. Here he slept on Carol's bed and I think that proves that for Echo, this truly was home from home. Thank you both - he'll be back with you soon!

brilliant personalised care for my beautiful boy. 100% understanding of him and his needs. Lots of lovely pics of him having the time of his life. Very compassionate and caring people who clearly love their charges as much as we owners do. He can't wait to go back!
