Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly and Professional dog care.
Hi, we're Ellie & Adrian, and we would love to look after your fluffy friend(s)! We both have plenty of time to dedicate to the care of your dog. We both have a years of experience dog sitting and have an extensive positive reviews gained through Rover. Ellie studied Bioveterinary Science at university, which included modules in animal behaviour and handling, and she also spent some extracurricular time volunteering at the dog training centre. Additionally, she undertook a dog first aid course, including CPR training. We live on a 5 acre smallholding, with chickens and sheep. We have a large enclosed garden for dogs to run around and play in. The area has plenty of popular dog walks. We have a car available for pick ups and drop offs, and can offer a range of services for dogs and other small pets. We are more than happy to meet you and your dog's needs, including training, medication, and any other requirements. We support positive reinforcement training, and will look after your pet with a warm and patient attitude, as if they were our own.

Ratings and reviews
Ralph had a fantastic time staying with Adrian. He was exhausted by the time we got him home as he'd had so much fun playing with Midge. We got updates on how he was which was great as it put our minds at rest to know he was ok.
First time of leaving my besties Copper and Poppy with anyone to look after them, I was really nervous as Copper also has epilepsy, Ellie, Adrian and Midge were amazing with them, from the initial meet to us then leaving them for a week we could not have asked for more. Daily updates, they settled really quickly and had such a great time, would have no reservations in leaving them again or recommending to others, setting is amazing, this really is the ideal holiday home for your furry besties. Thank you for everything, we will see you again. Regards Martin, Copper and Poppy x
Fantastic and looking forward to next time. Loved the photos of what our boy got up to, he seems to have had a great time and well looked after. Thank you!
Our dog Dudley was very happy with Ellie and Adrian and we will definitely use them again! Thank you
Fern & Gus had another super stay with Ellie and Adrian! Love the daily updates and pictures and feel totally at ease leaving them knowing they’re in such good hands. Thanks again!
My Springer Spaniel Millie stayed with Ellie and Adrian for the weekend and she seems to have had a really good time and looks as though she was very relaxed in their company. I think E and A are very skilled in they way they manage dogs with little foibles or anxieties and they’re very good in dealing with owners too! I will definitely be rebooking soon.

A typical day
We often take walks on in the local area, which have proven very popular with our furry clients. We also like to take longer walks to Boswell Coach House and Dumfries House (if appropriate for the energy level of your dog). Lots of mental stimulation will be provided during their stay, and all dogs are sent home happy and well exercised.

However, in your initial message, it would be helpful, but not necessary, to know the following details: - Size of dog (a photo is helpful to judge if your pet is a good fit) - Personality and behaviour, at home, on walks, and with other animals - Health requirements (i.e. medication, allergies) - Training requirements
