Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional dog handler available for pet sitting
Fran is a qualified dog handler with animal first aid qualifications. She has experience with a number of different dogs and has trained rescues from puppy so has puppy experience. Fran works from home and is able to fit in walks and cuddles during breaks. At the weekends we are both normally out walking on Dartmoor or another nearby wood. When staying with us, we will treat your pet like our own. They will have full access to house and can sleep where they do at home to help them feel comfortable. We will send lots of updates for peace of mind. They will need to be dog friendly as we have a dog of our own. We can meet before we confirm to check they get along okay.

Ratings and reviews
Frances and Mike were fab dog sitters - I received daily updates and my dogs were spoilt - TWO walks a day, would you believe it! Highly recommend Frances and Mike!
Fran & Mike were fabulous. Mac has come home happy, chill & exhausted- exactly what we like after leaving him. Felt totally confident in their ability to care for a (slightly energetic!) spaniel and they sent great photos to keep us updated. Will definitely use again. Thank you
I left my 5month old puppy Louie with Frances to attend a family funeral. She took excellent care of Louie and communication before the booking and throughout the booking was great! He was a very happy puppy spending time with Frances, and she provided the best care for him during the heatwave. She even had a toy for him waiting and he seemed to prefer it from his toys! That was such a nice touch to know that my puppy was in good hands. She was also very respectful of our puppy rule: our puppy is a dachshund breed and is forbidden to go up/down the stairs and has to be picked up in a certain way. Frances was happy to accommodate our needs. I will definitely make another book with her in the future!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced garden. Fran has working dogs and we currently have one We have lots of interactive dog toys and games and know many local areas for walks with large areas to run and rivers to play in. If you have any specific requests with regards to walks, let us know and we’d be happy to facilitate any special requests.
A typical day
We love to stimulate dogs both physically and mentally and have a good understanding of different dogs needs. The care we provide will be on a case by case basis as we understand no dog is the same. We will discuss what will be best for your dog with you.
