Pet care experience

Your pet will be part of our family

I grew up with dogs, from a Cavalier King Charles to a mixed breed rescue dog and genuinely love all dogs and breeds. In 2023 we welcomed a gorgeous and cheeky border terrier puppy Digsy to our family. I have used Rover myself to find sitters for Digs so I understand how important it is to know you are leaving your pet in safe hands. With us, your dog will have a cosy and fun time so you can enjoy your time away without any concerns. Either myself or my husband Tom are at home during the day and your pet will get plenty of attention from our 10-year-old son too. Digsy is super friendly with other dogs and we have a secure, enclosed garden for them to run around in. I am happy to consider looking after any dog that is well behaved and as long as they are sociable and safe around other dogs/children.

Doggy Day Care • Nov 23, 2025

This is the first time we have used doggy daycare in someone's home. Frances filled us full of confidence with entrusting Mochi in her care. We were given updates throughout the day showing us how much fun Michi was having and how relaxed he was! We will certainly be using Frances again

Fran and her family took amazing care of our dog, Clover. We received regular updates and could see how happy Clover was - she loved playing with Digsy. We would definitely book again and recommend Fran to other owners. Thanks Fran!

Duke was so well looked after by Frances, we had regular photos and updates so we knew what he was up to and that he was happy. We would definitely book again and recommend Frances to anyone!

Thank you Fran and Tom for looking after Howie! Fran and Tom looked after our rough collie Howie for 3 days while we were on holiday. They are both very friendly and have a great home with a big garden which was great for our dog. Perfect communication and some lovely photos of days out with Howard including a trip to the food festival. We won't hesitate to using Fran and Tom again, we're very happy and confident that they will look after Howie with great care and attention!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 13, 2025

Fran is always wonderful and Nobu had a great time! They were very considerate of the heatwave temperatures outside and planned the whole day around it so Nobu had a great day despite everything! Will definitely keep going back!

Myself or my husband Tom work from home most of the week and at weekends we always spend time out and about with our own dog so your pet will get plenty of attention and exercise.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a secure, fenced garden. At nighttime, my dog sleeps downstairs in the kitchen/hallway and is not allowed upstairs at all - please let me know your preferences for your own dog and we will look to accommodate them. Pets are allowed on the sofa and we enjoy nothing more than cuddling up with them in the evening.

A typical day

I love playing with dogs and making sure they are stimulated - playing lots of games and doing plenty of exercise. We walk our own dog at least twice a day and he also loves playing with doggy pals.
