Pet care experience
I am an active retired 61 year old.My wife and I were devoted dog owners for 16 years and for the past 18 months have been looking after friends dogs on an occasional basis and have realised that we miss the company a dog can offer.We live in a smoke free, adult-only bungalow with a large secure garden and would only board one dog at a time but would consider two small/medium dogs from the same family.If your dog is used to relaxing on the sofa or sleeping on the bed we are happy to allow this. We are happy to provide a pick up and or drop off service if required for a small charge depending on distance and length of booking I have crates and dog seat belts for safety
Reviews

Another great holiday in Portobello with his favourites. As ever, zero worries knowing he’s being looked after like a king by Derek and Angela. Waffle always comes back a super happy dog that’s just had a brilliant holiday (which he has).


Another successful daycare for our two dogs. They were happy and relaxed and we are booked in again for an overnight stay.

Couldn't have gone better - Dolly clearly thinks the world of them both. It was a safe, calm environment for her, with lots of walks and interactions.

Another great stay with Derek and Angela, I’m sure Waffle thinks they’re family. He’s treated like a king when with them. I have zero worries when I leave him, they love him like he’s their own. Thanks again :)
