Experienced Dog owner and pet sitter

Pet care experience

I love dogs; I grew up with dogs and then have owned dogs for the last 30 years. My last beloved Labradoodle, Oscar, passed away at over 15 at the end of last year. At the moment I don’t feel able to have another dog of my own, but love looking after friends dogs, and would like to extend this to others who need help. I am within easy access of the Downs, Seaford Head or Friston woods, but also near some secure fields where dogs can play. I grew up with Boxers. My first dog as an adult was a rejected border collie, which we had from 3 weeks old and had to bottle feed. He was, of course very special to us. He was followed by a very lively Labradoodle. I also have experience of Border, Welsh, Beddlington and Norfolk Terriers as well as Vizslas and Spaniels. I also have house sitting experience (references available)

We are pleased with how well Scrappys stay was with Dorinda. Dorinda was friendly and approachable and we received updates during visit so could see how happy scrappy was. Definitely recommend and will rebook for future stays.

I have a very secure garden, with a locked side gate so there is no risk of your dog escaping. In good weather the doors to the garden can stay open so that the dogs can come and go as they please. I am happy for your dog to sleep wherever they feel comfortable; their own bed or crate, or my sofa!
