Pet care experience
Your dog’s home away from home 🐶💛
I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. From the age of 12, I was walking our family dog before and after school, learning early on how much joy and responsibility comes with having a canine companion. [If our calendar appears full, please still reach out! Sometimes we’re able to adjust things or fit in additional bookings depending on our schedule.] Over the years, I’ve looked after a variety of breeds, from a gentle Lurcher to an energetic Malamute and a loyal Jindo, and loved every minute spent with them. For the past two years, my wife and I have had the pleasure of rescuing and raising our own dog, helping him come out of his shell and truly flourish. Your dog will be played with, loved, and cared for throughout the day, with walks as often as needed or requested. We’re lucky to live near parks, the canal, and some lovely woodland walks, and our garden offers plenty of space for dogs to play, complete with a growing “stick library” that’s already a hit with visiting pups! We understand that every dog is unique, with their own routines and needs, and we’ll always work closely with you to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and right at home.

Ratings and reviews
Hunnee really enjoyed her stay. Daniel was lovely to communicate with; nothing too much trouble and really wanted to ensure that Hunnee settled and was happy. We had lots of updates throughout the stay and felt very reassured that she was being well cared for. Thank you Daniel
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Buddy! Daniel was absolutely fantastic from start to finish so caring, attentive, and clearly someone who genuinely loves dogs. While we were away on holiday, he sent daily updates with pictures of Buddy, which meant so much to us. It was incredibly reassuring to see how happy, relaxed, and well cared for Buddy was, and those updates really helped us enjoy our time away without worry. It was clear Buddy was getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and when we returned, he was calm, content, and had clearly formed a lovely bond with Daniel. We would highly recommend Daniel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Buddy. We will definitely be booking again!
Daniel and his partner took such good care of our dog, Allie. She had such a wonderful time and we really appreciated all the photos and speedy communication. Would heartedly recommend!

Schedule
My wife and I both work from home with very flexible schedules, which means we’re around all day to give dogs plenty of attention, walks, and company. Our own dog enjoys multiple walks throughout the day, from strolls by the canal for fresh air to longer park or woodland walks. Between walks, we make sure dogs have a mix of playtime, enrichment, and relaxation. We love to engage with them through games, training, or cuddles, but we also respect when they need quiet time to rest and recharge in a calm, comfortable environment. Because we’re home all day, dogs are never left alone for long and always have someone nearby to keep them happy, safe, and cared for.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We care for every dog as if they were our own. Our home is calm, comfortable, and dog-friendly, with plenty of space for play and relaxation. We have a secure garden where dogs can explore safely, and we’re close to parks, woods, and the canal for regular walks and outdoor fun. We make sure each dog feels welcome and settled, following their usual routines as closely as possible, from feeding times to favourite toys or sleeping spots. Whether your dog loves lots of attention and play or prefers a quiet nap nearby, we adapt to their needs so they feel happy, safe, and at home.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day includes plenty of walks, adjusted to each dog’s needs, plus lots of playtime with tennis balls, sticks, and toys throughout the day. Between activities, dogs can relax on our comfy sofa or their own bed for some quiet time. They’ll get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles from us all day long.
