Pet care experience

Affordable dog care Tunbridge Wells

I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always loved them. We have Arthur, a 2 year old cockapoo, who’s super friendly and gets on really well with the variety of dogs we’ve cared for. We’ve looked after many different dog breeds, ranging from whippets to sausage dogs, and are happy to help with doggy day care or longer stays. We’ve also got additional insurance and can send details upon request. I do try and only look after one dog at a time, just as I work from home and with more than two I can't provide them level of attention they deserve.

Francesca looked after my little Pomeranian for 2 weeks while I was away and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with. She kept me updated with messages and photos the whole time, which made such a difference and put my mind at ease. It was really clear he was happy, relaxed and getting loads of love and attention. When I got back, he was calm, healthy and clearly had a great tim, I don’t think he even missed me that much 😂 Would 100% book with Francesca again and definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.

First time with Francesca and first time with a sitter through Rover. Albie is an elderly chap and so needed a lovely comfy home. He was so well looked after and clearly became part of the family very quickly. I was kept updated on progress and was sent lovely photos. Couldn’t be happier. Thank you to Francesca and Jamie!

Francesca is a wonderful pet-sitter! Milo loved her and I think was a bit disappointed when it was time to come home. She clearly loves dogs and the work she does. Goes on long walks with the pooches, extending treats along the way. All fun and games with Francesca! Highly recommend!

Francesca was amazing with Otis. Sent updates and Otis had the best day with Arthur.

Great sitter - I had a number of family issues and Fran could not have been nicer and more accommodating for me or my dog. We set up and easy going play date and I was kept up to speed on how the sit was going. Lovely home ideal for dogs and easy drop off and pick up. Thank you!

Schedule

I work from home full time Monday to Friday, so pet care slots into my routine really naturally. Most of my day is spent at my desk with a couple of meetings through the week, so your dog will always have company. I usually take Arthur for a one hour walk in the nearby St. John’s Meadow, or if it’s a muddy for a road walk around Boyne Park.

Safety, trust & environment

Me, my husband and Arthur live in a cosy ground floor flat in central Tunbridge Wells. While we don’t have a private garden, there’s a secure communal space just outside for quick toilet breaks. There’s also St. John’s park and meadow just across the road for a quick run. It’s a relaxed and friendly home, perfect for small to medium dogs who enjoy a peaceful weekday routine.

Pets

A typical day

I like to keep things relaxed and enjoyable, whether that’s a walk, a bit of playtime, or just some company while I work. I tailor everything to each dog’s personality and energy levels, so whether they’re up for a little adventure or just want to potter about and relax, they’ll be in good hands.

Arthur gets fed three times a day, but we feed everyone separately. Arthur is really friendly, a little excited at the beginning but settles down quickly and makes fast friends with anyone.
