Pet care experience

Caring animal lover

Ive been brought up with dogs which were labradors and have had dogs of my own for the last 20 years. My own dogs were rescued and had behavioural issues when they arrived however with a lot of love and attention this improved with all 3 of my dogs. Unfortunately 2 of my precious shih tzus passed away and have one special lady who is getting on in years but still very happy being taken for walks in her pet stroller.

Our old boy Bill was well looked after by Denise who catered for his needs. Denise has a lovely big garden which he enjoyed using. Can highly recommend.

Molly stayed with Denise while we were away and had the most wonderful time. It was such a relief knowing she was being so well looked after, loved and cared for. Denise kept us updated and we could see that Molly was completely happy and comfortable with her. Denise also groomed Molly during her stay and did an absolutely amazing job, she looked beautiful when we collected her! You can really tell how much Denise loves dogs and how experienced and caring she is with them. We came home to a very happy, beautifully groomed Molly! 🐾❤️ We will definitely be booking with Denise again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their dog. Thank you so much, Denise!

Denise offered a lovely home to our Florence with a big garden in a quiet village on a near car-free lane during a heatwave! We got a happy and very tired dog back, which is always a good sign! ☺️

We couldn’t have asked for better carers for Apple. Denise and her partner showed such genuine compassion, patience, and attentiveness, especially knowing Apple is blind and needs that extra layer of care and reassurance. Their home is a beautiful, calm environment, and it was clear from the moment we arrived that Apple was in the very best hands. We came away feeling completely at ease, and Apple clearly did too. We would recommend them wholeheartedly and won’t hesitate to book again. Thank you both so much

A very successful stay for Dill. He greatly enjoyed himself and had some wonderful walks in the lovely countryside surrounding the house. I thoroughly recommend Denise.

Denise was really helpful, responsive and flexible when we made our booking. She has a lovely home and a great garden. Our dog came back very happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again.

Schedule

I decided to give up working full time as a social worker last summer to concentrate on training to be a dog groomer as well as looking after dogs so I'm at home all day every day.
