Genuine Animal Lovers with Time & Energy to Give
My partner, Carmen, and I have cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments over the years—from energetic puppies needing structure and patience, to senior dogs who just want a gentle walk and some company. We understand that every pet is different, so we adapt our approach to suit their pace, personality, and needs. We are confident in handling large breeds, administering basic medication, and managing pets with anxiety or special routines. What sets us apart is the balance we offer: calm, consistent care with plenty of affection and attention, backed by a responsible and safety-first mindset. We are not just here to ‘watch’ pets—we aim to make them feel settled, stimulated, and looked after while you’re away.

Notes et avis
Missy’s second time with Daniel and family and she loves it! She’s always so excited to see them, really enjoys the company and her stays. Great communication and Missy returns a happy girl. She is treated very well there!
I could tell Missy was going to love her time here from the first meet and greet. Daniel was kind and attentive and let Missy find her own way in her own time. She has just returned home after nearly a week’s stay and it seems as though she had the best holiday! Loads of attention, play, walks, cuddles from all the family, and I was so pleased at how well she got on with the other dogs who stayed. I couldn’t fault the stay, and the updates and videos were really nice to get and great quality - some amazing pictures! I wouldn’t hesitate to use Daniel and Carmen again and I bet Missy can’t wait!
Thank you so much to Daniel for taking Marley at such late notice for the weekend. His whole family was absolutely lovely and so sweet with Marley. He enjoyed some lovely walks with them and another dog they had staying, who Marley quickly became best friends and they were inseparable. I was completely confident in their care of Marley as they are very diligent and safety focussed as well as being fun and showing him a great time. He came home completely exhausted, which was a sign of a great weekend! On top of the great care they provided they also bathed Marley so he was all sweet smelling and clean when I collected him, as well as washing his blanket. Thank you so much; I wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future!
Tilly has just returned from her third - almost two week stay with Daniel, Carmen and girls.. As always, Tilly had a wonderful time, she’s so well loved and cared for. Tilly is a nervous dog by nature, but not with Daniel and Carmen who make her feel so relaxed, comfortable and safe. They really have become her extended family. We are provided with daily updates and lovely photos and videos which we appreciate very much. We would not want to leave Tilly with anyone else, she is looking forward to staying with them again very soon.
This is the second time we’ve left Harvey, our cocker spaniel, with Carmen and Daniel, and once again they’ve been absolutely amazing. Harvey absolutely loves staying with them and is so spoilt, cared for, and loved while he’s there. Knowing he’s so happy and well looked after has made going away so much easier for us. We honestly couldn’t recommend Carmen and Daniel enough — they treat Harvey like one of their own, and we’re so grateful to have found them!
Daniel, Carmen and their two wonderful girls took the best care of my dog Joyce! She had an amazing time with the whole family and is already missing them lots. Everything including the communication to attention to detail regarding Joyce’s routine with them was faultless. They really made a lot of effort to make Joyce feel at home and loved and for that I am very grateful! Look forward to book her next stay asap!

Dates de la garde
Pet care fits naturally into our routine. We enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and having a bit of structure to our days—whether that’s heading out for a morning walk, playing in the garden, or unwinding in the evening with a pet by our side. I work from home most days, so I’m able to give animals the attention and consistency they need throughout the day—whether that’s feeding, exercise, or just good company. We live with our two children (aged 10 and 14), and we’re all animal lovers. Carmen is a former veterinary nurse with lots of hands-on experience, and our children have grown up around pets. They’re always excited to meet new animals, but they also understand the importance of being calm, respectful, and letting each pet settle in at their own pace. Looking after animals is something that we genuinely enjoy—it’s part of everyday life for us, and we do our best to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Caractéristiques du logement
Sécurité, confiance et environnement
Whether we are welcoming a pet into my own home or looking after them in theirs, we prioritise creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that suits their routine. We take time to understand each pet’s individual needs—from feeding schedules and exercise habits to any medical or behavioural requirements. In our home, pets have access to secure outdoor space, a quiet spot to rest, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their usual routine as closely as possible, keeping their environment familiar and stress-free. I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and respect I’d want for my own.
Une journée type
A typical day starts with a morning walk to get us both moving—whether it’s a quick stroll around the block or a longer outing in the park, depending on the dog’s needs and energy levels. After breakfast and a bit of downtime, I’ll mix in some light play, training reinforcement, or puzzle toys to keep them mentally engaged. If I’m working from home, they’ll be nearby with regular check-ins, cuddles, and comfort breaks. My partner Carmen is around during the day as well, which adds an extra layer of reassurance—especially for pets with specific needs. Our two children (aged 10 and 14) are also part of daily life and have grown up knowing how to behave calmly and respectfully around animals. They love helping out when appropriate, whether it’s some supervised playtime or joining us on walks. In the afternoon, we might go out again or have some garden time for fresh air and a sniff around. Evenings are all about winding down—maybe a short walk, some gentle play, and plenty of time to relax. I adapt everything to suit the pet’s age, temperament, and routine, but the goal is always the same: exercise, stimulation, and plenty of positive attention.
