Safety, trust & environment

We usually have the dogs with us at all times, so if we are working they will be near us in the office area or with us watching tv. I am sorry but we can’t look after any house that has had a cat living in it as Cris is very allergic to them.

Information Colin S. would like to know about your pet

Are they ok with other dogs we may meet on a walk. Are they good off lead or do we keep them on a lead. How far can they walk. Do they take any medication.

A typical day

We love to go to a nearby reservoir/nature reserve. Also a walk around the canals a nearby napton on the hill has some great walks.

Location

A couple that love looking after dogs!

Pet care experience

Hi we are Colin and Cris, British and Spanish. We love to travel and love dogs. We have been living on our 63ft narrowboat on the canals of the UK for the last 5 years and love it. Both of us are graphic designers and work from home so we are 24/7 with the pets. We love to walk and see the countryside as well as being very interested in the history of places. We both have had dogs all our life’s, from Chow Chows to rescue dogs. Our last dog was a french bulldogs, we have had them in the family for over 10 years and have a lot of experience with them. Cris has had all sorts of pets from geckos to miniature rabbits. We live in a marina and are often asked to look after someone’s dog for a day, as well as this we can pack up out office and take it with us, which means that if you need to go away for months we have no problem with that.

Very straight forward and worry free experience. His wife and Colin coped with four dogs two of which were dobbies,one of which Bruno very big boy with no trouble.They allowed me to go away with no concerns regarding the care of my dogs which is such a relief for me. I would differently recommend his care and down to earth manner.👍

As previously, Buddy has been so well looked after! You can tell Colin and Cris are really fond of him and his quirky ways and nothing seems to phase them! I was sent photos and videos while I was away which helped me when I was missing him. I would totally recommend Colin and Cris and I am thankful I found them on Rover!

Colin and Chris are amazing ! Our pooches are relaxed and happy while we are away and we never worry about how they are doing. Colin and Chris look after them and love them as if they are their own and we couldn't be happier, thankyou ❤️

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
