Highlights
Pet care experience
Walks Available, Award Winning, First-Aid & DBS
We now have limited availability for dog-walking. Dog First Aid Emergency Canine Care qualified, DBS checked and Insured. My partner and I are Golden Retriever breeders who enjoy walking other people's dog. We are competitive dog trainers and handlers and have won a number of awards. I currently train all my dogs to completion level in rural pursuits. We love looking after and training retrievers and will do our utmost to accommodate you and your dogs' needs. We provide the extra care young dogs and puppies require, focusing on socialisation and nurturing their development while maintaining good boundaries for a healthy and well behaved dog. We are happy to train your puppies in basic commands, obedience and socialisation. We are both fully trained in canine CPR and canine first aid. What sets us apart is our genuine love for every pet we care for, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. Trust me to provide exceptional care that goes beyond the ordinary. My family and I have had pets all our lives. We are experienced with a wide range of breeds. Our family has owned German Shepherds, Collies and cross-breeds. We have 3 Golden retrievers and a Black Labrador Retriever and love spending our time at dog shows, obedience training, and gundog training with them. We rent out a privately owned, enclosed field every weekend that we use for off-lead activities and training. We send photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing.

Safety, trust & environment
Our garden is fenced on all 3 sides and surrounded by gardens in all directions. We crate our family dogs, but are able to take care of dogs who are not crate trained. We do not allow dogs upstairs unless necessary, due to concerns over their joints.
Ratings and reviews
It was only a short stay Mabel had such a great time, regular walks and a nice time socialising with the resident dogs.
Daniel looked after our 18 week old retriever which great personalized care. His four dogs were friendly and welcoming, showing our pup how the big dogs behave. Would definitely recommend. Thank you
My Weimerana is a typical weim, but can also be very nervous and reactive around strangers, barks and is tricky to control. She needs a firm hand, and is nippy in play at only 9m old, which needs firm professional but kind and loving support. Sparkle got all of this during her stay, including a trip to the moors. Thank you for all your help, we will be in touch again when we are going away. 🙏
Thank you, Daniel, for taking such great care of Lucy once again, even outside of your regular hours. It's wonderful to have someone reliable and trustworthy to look after her when I can't be there.
What a gem! Daniel couldn’t have looked after our Molly any better. He collected her and returned her on time and sent us photos during her stay with him. First class service. Thanks Daniel
Absolutely amazing, our poppy felt safe and comfortable all through her visit and never felt like they were a stranger.
