A typical day with me is full of love, attention, and plenty of walks. I do morning, lunchtime, and evening walks, so your dog gets lots of fresh air and chances to stretch their legs. During the day, I’m always around giving fuss, playtime, and just keeping them company—whether that’s playing, exploring, or just chilling together. In the evening, we wind down with some cosy time and cuddles (if they’re into that!). I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel happy, safe, and right at home. I’m also really happy to send updates and photos as often as you’d like 😊

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very loving, kind very gentle whippet who loves the company of other dogs. I’ve got a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can safely run around and play, as well as a spacious home they’re free to explore and settle into. My main priority is always to create a calm, safe, and really comfortable environment where every dog feels relaxed and at home. I take the time to get to know each dog and what they need, whether that’s playtime, routine, or just a bit of quiet space. They’ll be cared for like one of my own, in a space that’s secure, loving, and stress-free

Information Francine-Marie W. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know what your dogs recall is like, character traits, quirks, anything you feel you would want to know if you were looking after someone’s beloved dog 🥰

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs through training whilst either on a walk or playing ball in the park. Everyday, every activity can be used to solidify a bond and stimulate the mind. I think it’s super important to allow dogs to sniff, explore and have exercise. After walks and stimulation I give pooches time to calm down, settle and relax in a safe environment.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m currently serving in the military and bring a calm, patient, and caring approach to looking after dogs. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, and I understand that each one has their own personality and needs. I’m very loving and have plenty of time to give them the attention, walks, and care they deserve. I also have a gentle whippet of my own and aim to create calm and comfortable environment for dogs to feel safe and relaxed. Happy to communicate daily over with updates , walk pictures and general funny photos of your pooch.

OUTSTANDING experience from start to finish! Frankie is just lovely and looked after my two sighthounds quite beautifully. I was kept informed with lots of video's, there is plenty of space and Frankie's dog Huntress is just beautiful and SO well behaved - particularly with my lunatic Italian Greyhound! I had clips of plenty of walks, and the fussy eater ate everything put in front of her - so clearly relaxed and happy. I couldn't be more thrilled and will definitely book again in the future. THANK YOU FRANKIE!

Frankie is a kind loving woman who absolutely adores animals. Huntress (her dog) is continuously spoilt with love and affection! She is very active and enjoys taking her dog on adventures and playing around with other dogs. If I ever needed a home away from home for my dogs, she would be my go-to.
