Information Fernando N. would like to know about your pet

👉 The most important thing is that your dog is comfortable and sociable with other dogs, as they will be sharing our home with our two friendly dogs 🐾 It’s also really helpful to know: 🐕 How your dog behaves around other dogs in the home (especially with toys, food, or attention) 🐕 Whether your dog has any reactivity, fears, or triggers we should be aware of 🐕 Your dog’s daily routine (walks, feeding times, sleeping arrangements) 🐕 Any medical needs, medications, allergies, or mobility issues 🐕 Any behaviours you’re currently working on (jumping up, barking, etc.) The more we know, the better care we can provide — helping ensure a calm, happy, and safe stay for everyone!

A typical day

🐾 Your dog’s day will include: Morning walk in Poplar Park. Regular supervised garden playtime. Naps indoors or in the sunshine. Attention and cuddles throughout the day. Evening calm time with the family.

Family Home with a Garden

Pet care experience

🐾 My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and we’ve spent many years caring for our own pups as well as looking after neighbours' and friends' dogs. 🏠 In our home, shared by me, my husband, and our teenage son, your dog will be welcomed as part of the family. Because I work from home every day, your dog will never be left alone and will receive constant love and attention. 🐶 Your dog will have free roam of our three-bedroom house and a safe, fully fenced garden, perfect for play or lounging in the sun. We also enjoy daily walks in nearby Poplar Park and off-leash time in the secure dog park just across the street. 🐕 Your dog will be staying with our two friendly, gentle resident dogs: Bailey (a playful 2-year-old Australian Labradoodle) and Kiki (an easygoing 9-year-old Shih Tzu). 📸 You'll receive daily photo or video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. 🚗 Pick-up & drop-off may be available depending on your location - just ask when you message!

This was our second boarding experience with Fernando and Morne and we couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters! They took exceptional care of our Shih Tzu and truly treated him like one of their own. It’s clear they are genuine dog lovers—their own dogs, Kiki and Bailey, are incredibly friendly, and our dog absolutely loved spending time with them, especially in their garden. Communication throughout was spotless and highly organised. We received regular updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so reassuring to know he was happy, comfortable, and being so well looked after in our absence. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitters!

Fernando and Morne are the absolute best! They go so far above and beyond to ensure Mia has a wonderful time. Bailey and Kiki are also such good playmates. Their house has a private garden that Mia loves exploring, along with the surrounding parks. We were slightly worried before leaving Mia for her first boarding but they took such good care of her, literally caring for her like she was one of their own.

Barney had the most wonderful stay with Fernando and Morné for just over a week. From the very beginning they made us feel confident that he was in safe, caring hands. They were communicative throughout the stay, sending multiple photo and video updates every day along with thoughtful written messages about how Barney was getting on, which we really appreciated. It was clear from the updates that Barney was having an absolute blast. He spent lots of time on walks and enjoyed running around their safe local dog area, enthusiastically chasing and playing with their lovely young dog Bailey. It was also very sweet to see Kiki patiently tolerating the chaos! The photos they sent were fantastic — some of the best pictures we’ve ever had of Barney — and really showed how happy and relaxed he was. Fernando and Morné were also wonderfully thoughtful and accommodating with routines, feeding, and logistics around drop-off and pick-up, which made the whole experience completely stress-free for us. It’s not easy leaving your dog for over a week, but thanks to their constant updates and the obvious care they gave Barney, we never once worried. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and feel very lucky to have found such kind, attentive sitters. Barney came home happy, tired, and clearly missing his new best friend Bailey — which probably tells you everything you need to know!
