Dogfriend

Pet care experience

I've been a dog lover for a long time, having had small dogs as a kid. But my partner and I have had two labradors over the last 21+ years, the last of which passed away in 2021 at the age of 12. We are not looking for a new pet at the moment but love to take care of other dogs when we can. We love walks and all around pampering them. We've also taken puppy training courses.

Christopher took care of my senior dog super well. He sent me multiple updates and photos each day. He made sure my dog get his daily walks multiple times. I will definitely bring Momo back and highly recommend!

Christopher's love for dogs is very evident. He took Tango's care very seriously from the beginning and we found him very reliable and felt we left our elderly dog in good hands. Communication very efficient, we received photos all the time. Thank you Christopher, we would definitely choose you again and again🤗.

Christopher took care of our senior Jack Russell, Marley, this weekend. We are super happy with Christopher and hope to book his services again the next time we go out of town and cannot bring Marley. He texted us and shared photos of Marley, which gave us peace of mind knowing that she was in good hands. We highly recommend Christopher!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small house with a fenced backyard, and normally I let dogs roam free around the house. I can crate them if needed, but usually enjoy letting the dog have access to the house. I usually encourage dogs to sleep in their own dog bed but they are more than welcome to relax on the sofa. The neighbourhood is very walkable. I only feed dogs appropriate treats and their own dog food, and like to have safe toys for them to play with
