Caring & Reliable Dog Lover

I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals, but dogs are my absolute favourite. I have taken care of my own dogs, but friends and neighbours also rely on me to take care of their pets. I always make sure to account for the needs of the pets in my care, whether they need a walk, a bathroom break, or a tummy rub. I also have a supportive family that also loves dogs. The dogs in my care have a totally supportive environment.

Another fab day for Stanley with Colin. Loads of walks and he’s come home happy and tired, thank you Colin!

Excellent! Super caring and supportive of what Archie needs, and we only need to look at how excited Archie is to see Colin and the lovely pictures we receive to know how much he enjoys it!

Stanley had a great time with Colin and his family! Stanley is quite high energy, but they kept him super busy and occupied. Super flexible and understanding with arrangements which was really appreciated for a last minute work trip. Lots of lovely photos and updates. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced garden and a supportive family. Dogs will have access to most of the house - wherever they feel most comfortable. It is a non-smoking house. The stairs can be dog-proofed if required.

A typical day

Activities type and frequency will be owner and pet dependant. This can be cuddles, walks, runs, and games. Games can be chasing balls or sticks, or searching for hidden toys or food.
