Responsibe and Loving Dog Sitter Home from Home
Hi. My name is Carole and I am a dedicated and trustworthy dog sitter with a lifelong passion for dogs. I can't remember a life without dogs. My parents always owned dogs and would occasionally breed them so I would always get involved with their training and looking after them. I went on to owning my own dogs and trained them and competed in Agility with them. I would love to look after your furry friend. I will provide them with love and affection and plenty of cuddles as if they were my own pet. I have used Rover in the past to care for my dogs, but I would now like to offer the service to others needing a loving, home-from-home experience. I can cater to your dogs' routines and will only have dogs from one family at a time. I know communication is key to a worry-free trip so I am happy to send as many photos and updates as you like. I like to meet up ahead of any major stay to put you at ease and to get to know your dog. I have a lovely 3-bed house, with a secure and fenced garden. Dogs are not allowed upstairs but they can roam around the rest of the house and garden and are allowed on the sofa. I would prefer bookings of 3 days or more but can accommodate shorter stays at short notice.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Dexter really enjoyed being with Carole. Carole was very confident with our dog . She gave us regular updates which we appreciated. We would definitely like Carole to look after Dexter again. I would recommend Carole for sure
Carole looked after our pup for 3 days 2 nights. We highly recommend. She shared photos and updates throughout and to ensure he had a comfortable stay she asked lots of right questions about his routine/commands/do's and dont's before hand, which was reassuring. Thank you Carole for caring for him.
Carole was a great sitter and extremely accommodating. Reuben required modified food whilst he stayed which Carole did without a problem. Reuben was very happy at drop off and pick up and looked very much at home. Carole gave regular updates with photos whilst we were away. Thanks again. Highly recommend and would use again.
Murphy had a great time with Carole and Cassie, he can be a bit nervous but Carole gave him lots of cuddles and reassurance and kept us updated with photos and information. He came home shattered from the lovely walks! Would definitely recommend Carole.
Carole was a fantastic dog boarder and we couldn’t be more grateful. We made quite a last minute booking and thankfully she was free to look after Sylvester. We met and I knew instantly she was going to take great care after him. He’s a large poodle with a lot of energy and Carole was able to give him all the walks he needed and she followed the instructions on his food and other care perfectly. She also sent us plenty of updates with photos whilst we were away. I would definitely ask Carole to look after Sylvester again - he loved her and Cassie 😊
Carole looked after my dog Frank for a couple of days and was wonderful. I was a bit worried as Frank can be quite anxious but he was surprisingly relaxed and enjoyed his stay. Communication was efficient. Will be using Carole again

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure fenced garden and can accommodate your fur baby's routines. I have a few parks close by but also enjoy jumping in the car and exploring the nearby countryside.
A typical day
If your dog likes plenty of exercise I can take them on lovely long walks in the countryside. Playtime is essential for a dog's well-being so I will spend time during the day playing with them.
