Pet care experience

Reliable sitter with large garden & woodland walks

Animals have always been apart of our family and our growing up. I've been around and cared for them my whole life - from dogs, cats to horses. Love them all! My partner and I have many years experience dog boarding. It is important that the dogs that visit are good with children as our children help with looking after the animals where by they play, cuddle and help feed them. My partner and I both work from home. We have a small dog, she's lovely and used to other doggy friends. Hopefully if you feel comfortable leaving your pet with me, we'll both have a lovely time while you're away 😊

Craig looked after Barney while we were away and we were really pleased with the care he provided. Communication was excellent throughout and we received regular updates, photos and videos which was really reassuring and helped us feel relaxed while we were away. Barney looked very happy and settled, and it was clear he had been well looked after. Thank you, Craig, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you and would happily book again in the future.

Craig was very communicative and Toby got on with the family dog. He was very happy when we picked him up, as well as tired!

Our puppy Willow stayed with Craig and Lucy for a week. She was really happy there and they kept us up to date with photos and videos. Brilliant, caring sitters who looked after her really well.

Craig was a star, our longstanding booking was cancelled approximately a week before the holiday was due to start, Craig kindly said yes to taking Frankie. After a couple of unsettled days Frankie relaxed and I am happy to say he had a lovely time with the other dogs, Craig and his family. I received photos and updates regularly, when I collected him he was wagging his tail and he slept like a baby last night.

Schedule

I work from home all week with the rare meeting in the office 20mins from home. I need to drop the kids to school on a Monday, Tues and Weds morning but back by 08:50am. I don't mind having a pet dropped off while I'm out for that short period.
