Loving, cosy home
Pet care experience
As well as our own crazy spaniel, Koda, we've both spent lots of time supporting care of family dogs through our lives. Koda had bad separation anxiety when younger, and still needs lots of human attention now, so we can understand the stress and anxiety that leaving your dog with others can cause. Your pal will get lots of love and attention and we're also happy to update you on how they're getting on throughout their visit.
Reviews
Caroline and Dave were thorough in assessing the needs and peculiarities of our 2 dogs before their stay. We received pictures and had updates of them and returned to find two happy dogs who had obviously been well looked after. Thank you J
Thanks for looking after him so well he had a great time
Laika absolutely loved her stay, and she was so well looked after. We were so reassured by the thorough notes that Dave took to ensure that they were fully prepared to cope with our little live wire, and by the photos and updates during the day. She can’t wait for next weekend when she can meet her new best friends Koda for a WHOLE WEEKEND!! Thank you both.
Thank you for looking after Mike. Thoroughly recommend Dave and Caroline and of course Koda.
About Dave B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced garden and a happy, active Sprocker to give your dogs the entertainment they need. We have a medium size house with plenty of room. We check where your dog is allowed at home and apply the same rules here (e.g. Sofa, bed, upstairs). We can also crate dogs who find that comforting and are crate trained. We lead an active lifestyle ourselves so there will be plenty of opportunities for walks and exercise if needed. We'll ask a lot of questions at the meet and greet to understand your best pal and be honest if we can meet their needs. We also always ask for a trial overnight stay, so we can all be certain it's a good match.

Information Dave B. would like to know about your pet
Let us know what your dog needs and we'll be honest about whether we can accommodate them. Our dog can get very barky when other dogs don't have an 'off' switch and keep intiaiting play when he's had enough, so we'd want to understand how to support your dog to settle when needed.
A typical day
With a young spaniel we provide a lot of different stimulation - both physical and mental. We love to do a 'sniff'ari. On a busy work day we've got a dog park up the road for exercise where we go twice a day, but when we've more time we'll be running or walking in the forest.
