Pet care experience
Dedicated to Exceptional Dog Care: With a deep-rooted love for dogs, I have dedicated significant time to understanding and catering to their unique needs. My experience includes: Puppy Training: I'm skilled in nurturing and training puppies, focusing on basic obedience and socialization. I understand the patience and consistency needed to help young dogs grow into well-behaved adults. Senior Dog Care: Compassionate care for senior dogs is a priority. I'm attentive to their health requirements, gentle exercise needs, and comfort, ensuring they feel loved and secure. Active Lifestyle: Being fitness-oriented, I ensure each dog enjoys plenty of exercise and outdoor time, tailored to their energy levels and health. Safety First: My home is a safe haven, equipped to prevent any mishaps and ensure a secure environment for all canine guests. Attention to Individual Needs: I pride myself on recognizing and adapting to the unique personality and requirements of each dog, ensuring a personalized care experience. Through my service, I aim to provide not just a boarding space, but a loving and enriching environment for your beloved pet.
Reviews
David looked after my greyhound Miley for a few days. She came back happy and he sent videos during her stay and she was definitely smiling! I have no hesitation in recommending him. He even picked her up and dropped her off again. An excellent service, thank you David!
I had the pleasure of having David look after my beloved dog Skip for a week when he was based in Matlock. David's dedication and responsible nature truly shone during this time. He not only ensured that Skip was well-fed and exercised but also gave him the love and attention he needed.

A Perfect Blend of Routine and Flexibility: My daily and weekly routines are thoughtfully designed to integrate pet care seamlessly, ensuring that each dog receives the attention and care they deserve. Regular Weekdays: My days start with an early morning walk, a great way for dogs to start their day with fresh air and exercise. During the day, I work from home, allowing me to provide constant companionship and supervision. Breaks are spent playing in the garden or having short walks, keeping the dogs engaged and happy. Evenings: Evenings are for longer walks, playtime, and relaxation, ensuring dogs have a well-rounded day with a mix of activity and rest. Weekends: Weekends are special! They're often reserved for longer outdoor adventures like hikes or trips to the dog park, perfect for dogs who love a bit more excitement and exploration. Flexibility for Special Needs: I'm committed to accommodating the unique schedules and needs of each dog, whether it's adhering to specific feeding times, medication routines, or additional walks. In essence, my schedule is designed to ensure that your dog will have a balanced mix of exercise, play, and relaxation, making their time with me as enjoyable and comforting as possible.
