Pet care experience

Laura and I have had dogs all our lives. We routinely dog sit for friends and family. We understand how challenging it can be to have a reliable carer for your dog that you can trust, allowing you to make the most of your time away. Having 3 dogs of varying ages (Axl (15), Chess (12) and Louie (4)), we know how important it is to be flexible in catering to your dog's specific requirements, whether that be medications, toilet routine, exercise or training. Although Chris doesn't hold formal qualification, he is something of a dog whisperer and can use some of the time with your dog to work on specific aspects of obedience with prior agreement. Our baby, TJ, was a 2025 addition to the family and has grown up around our dogs. Naturally, we could not board dogs with a history of agression towards other pets or humans/children.

Chris & Laura were excellent with Teddy. We felt he was in very good hands and had a blast with them. We have never left Teddy with anyone but family members so we were a bit nervous but we could tell he had a fantastic time and was very well looked after. Thanks again.

Where do I begin, I honestly can't recommend Chris and Laura enough! Leaving Willow (my 10 month old sprocker) was a big thing for me, but they made me feel completely at ease from the very beginning. She had the best time and came home so happy. Before her stay, we'd already agreed to add one of Chris's training packages alongside the boarding for an additional cost. I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I've made. The difference in Willow has been incredible. Before, she never really settled outside of her crate, she jumped all over everyone and would run off at every opportunity if something caught her attention. Since coming home she's so much calmer, settles around the house on her own, happily lies at my feet while I'm doing things, and is so much better with the kids and other distractions around her. She's learnt so many new skills and commands, but more importantly she's learnt how to relax. I'm genuinely so grateful. Willow is such a big part of our little family and Chris has made such a positive difference to our day-to-day life. The training has given us the confidence to carry on what he's started, and I honestly can't thank him enough. Thank you both so much for looking after our girl. She'll definitely be back! ❤️
