Daily routine – mealtimes, walk times, sleeping habits, and any rituals that help them feel settled Medical needs – allergies, medications, or anything we should watch out for Behavioural quirks – are they nervous around new people or dogs? Do they guard toys or food? How do they react to being left alone, even briefly? Social preferences – how they get along with other dogs (especially our small resident dog) Commands and training – what words or signals they know, and what you’d like us to reinforce Comfort items – do they have a favourite toy, blanket, or sleeping arrangement?

We love getting to know each dog’s personality and finding the activities they enjoy most. For some, that means long walks and exploring new scents in the surrounding neighbourhood and local woods; for others, it’s a game of fetch in the park, a tug of war to keep their brain busy, or simply some cuddle time on the sofa. We have a fully fenced garden where dogs can safely run around and play, and we build in lots of interaction throughout the day- whether that’s practicing a few tricks, slow strolls for the older generation, or belly rubs and a good ear scratch. We also stick closely to their usual play style and energy level, so they feel safe, seen, and happy while they’re with us.
