Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I have a secure / fenced back garden with double patio doors leading out to the garden so dogs can have full reign in the house & in the garden. My front garden is large but not as secure as the back so any front garden time is supervised / on a lead if necessary. I do have 2 rabbits living at home, they are in their own room with a stair gate so will be completely secured during any visits. Besides the rabbits, it’s me & my partner George living at home (we own our home), George is also at home full time so any dogs coming will have plenty of love to go around between us. Any dogs staying over won’t be on their own for long (if we pop to a shop for example) & if anyone prefers to have their dog boarding solo without any other bookings, I’m more than happy to do so.

Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements or if there’s anything I should be aware of - I’m eager to follow any routines you have already in place!

A typical day

There’s lots of lovely places to go near where I live, there’s also enclosed dog parks so we can let dogs run free but safely with security. We also love a beach trip! We spend time in our garden making use of the sunny days & getting our hands dirty.

Pet care experience

I was the neighbourhood dog sitter when I was younger & I’ve had lots of experience with a range of breeds (staffys, Rottweilers, springer & cocker spaniels, vizlas, Weimaraners, chihuahuas etc) - I’ve had experiences with puppies & senior care. I am attentive to detail and will follow any instructions to the T!

Emily looked after our Golden Retriever, Ralph, whilst we were away getting married. Ralph clearly had THE best time and was looked after incredibly well. Emily sent such thoughtful (p)updates throughout his stay with them. Would definitely recommend booking Emily to look after your dog! Ralph says he is looking forward to his next stay, especially if the cheese taxes are so high again! J&H x

Emily took the best care simba. She was great at communicating prior and during the stay. Simba went on all sorts of adventures and Emily went the extra mile to protect Simba during the heatwave! When I picked him up I could tell he didn’t want to leave. I would recommended Emily as a dog sitter to anyone, and will be asking for her services again in the future. Thank you so much!

Emily has looked after my crazy dog Maya for a few weeks when she was a puppy, I couldn’t have trusted anyone else as much as I do em with her. She was looked after so well and had such a great time and had lots of updates and pictures of the adventures they had. Highly recommend to anyone who needs a sitter.
