Pet care experience

Hey... I'm Ellie and I can't wait to welcome your special doggy to our home. We have a lovely pet friendly house for our 2 small doggies, Minnie and Daisy who are very welcoming when we have doggies come and visit our home. We have all grown up with dogs and we have lots of experience with large and small dogs plus elderly dog care and giving daily medication. We enjoy going on lovely walks with our girls, we are very lucky to have lots of local park and county parks within easy walking distance or a short car ride away. We are very keen on keeping you up to date with how your special doggy is doing in our care and will send lots of pictures and let you know how they are doing each day. Our main priority is your dogs comfort and safety whilst staying with us. Before each stay we ask everyone to complete a questionnaire which will outline their doggies daily routine, likes and dislikes and any other information which will make their stay more comfortable and enjoyable. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me and I will be happy to help.

Ellen looked after our Cavapoo while we got married and we couldn’t have chosen a better pet sitter! We were updated with pictures throughout and Mila was very sad to leave!! Thanks so much x

Information Ellen D. would like to know about your pet

Important information before your stay!!! How many walks a day? What time do they eat? How much do they eat? Can they have treats and if so what type of treats? Where do they sleep? How often do they need toilet breaks? Do they travel well in a car? Are they friendly with other dog? 🐶Before your doggies first stay we always like to do a meet and greet, to ensure all dogs are happy with each other🐶

A typical day

We start our day with morning cuddles, then it’s toilet break, followed by breakfast. After breakfast is time to get ready for a walk, after the walk it time to say goodbye with a little biscuit or carrot and I go to work. Whilst at work I have doggy camera’s and can check in on them to see how they are doing. After lunch I come home and we cuddle on the sofa whilst I continue to work. During the summer months the patio doors will be open for fresh air and the doggies can enjoy sunbathing outside. After 4pm it’s tea time or walk time this all depends on weather and where we go for a walk. At weekends we enjoy going to the beach or country parks.

My work is flexible where I'm able to work from home plus I only work part time. Our teenage son attends college part time and my husband works 5 minutes from home and pops home when the dog are alone, so the dogs are never home alone for more than 2 hours a day.
