Pet care experience

Home from home

I’ve taken care of dogs for 20 years, since my first family dog at the age of 10. I work from home full time and have plenty of space for your dog to come and stay. I’m very active, so if your dog requires long walks then that’s great! Equally fine to snuggle on the sofa!

House Sitting • Apr 04, 2026

What can I say about the wonderful Craig. Absolutely rescued us by looking after our two dogs during our wedding. One dog is particularly difficult as he has epilepsy, so there’s always the fear of seizures and vet’s trip. Craig accepted to help us when others wouldn’t and we’re so grateful he did. The boys were so well looked after and so happy when we seen them. Craig knew we wanted them to be at the wedding so tried to get some pics in bow ties for us, bought us a wedding card and even helped us to carry some stuff in when we returned. Honestly I can’t praise or thank him enough. Definitely he using Craig again ❤️❤️

Had a trial night with Craig house sitting at our home overnight with our cocker spaniel before he does a longer stay later this year while we go abroad to get married! It has put me at so much ease knowing my boy will be left in good hands without any change to his regular routine. Thank you for helping take that stress away x

Craig cannot be faulted. Responded promptly to my request. Always on time. Always gave Tommy an excellent walk and Tommy always pleased to see him. Top notch.

Doggy Day Care • Dec 23, 2025

Craig has been absolutely amazing with our pup Mochi! Lots of cute pics, updates on how he's doing, and not a single issue! Even when the day started at 6am and Mochi had a bad leg, Craig was nothing short of brilliant. Would absolutely book with him again in a heartbeat!

I have a house with a fenced garden. I live near lots of nature trails and parks. I have lots of toys for your dog to play with.
