Hi there! My name is Gayle and I've been around dogs since I was two years old. My furbabies have ranged from terriers to rottweilers, from border collies to three-legged rescues, and I cherished every moment spent with them. Both my husband, Simon, and I work from home, so your pup will never have to wait very long for chin scritches or a belly rub!

Gayle & Simon did a wonderful job looking after our Ollie dog during our holiday. Prior to the sitting they responded quickly to messages, were very thoughtful and warm hearted regarding us leaving him for the first time and sent lovely picture updates etc whilst we were away. We felt like he was in a loving home and couldn’t have asked for anything more. Excellent and we will definitely be rebooking with them again. If they will have him! Ha ha! Thank you

Gayle and Simon are the perfect hosts, my boy fell in love with them on his 2 week stay. I was worried about leaving him for so long, but he completely settled in like it was his own home and by the end of his was having belly rubs on their bed. I updated all the time of his daily routine with lots of photos, and his smiling face, and I’m sure he will definitely be visiting again soon. Thankyou so much for loving my boy as much as we do ❤️

Our dog Daisy had a great time with Gayle and Simon, staying with them over a few days. They updated us whenever we asked with lots of pictures and took great care of her! She stayed with them during the heatwave and they went above and beyond to make sure she was kept cool in the heat. Including having frozen treats ready for her and playing with water to keep her cool. Thank you!!

My dog Dante had a sleepover with Gayle & Simon in a run up to a 2week stay in July. They were the perfect hosts and kept me updated on how he was getting on with messages and photos. I feel so more relaxed now knowing he’ll be well looked after while I’m away. Great hosts, would recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

Our south-facing garden is securely fenced and your pup can happily sprawl out on the grass in the sunshine, or take a break under the trees and relax where it's nice and cool. Our local area has plenty of parks and green spaces which are perfect for short walks, chasing tennis balls, or a full afternoon exploring the surrounding countryside.

A typical day

We're lucky enough to live next to plenty of green open space, so depending on what your pup prefers we can definitely head out into the local countryside and find plenty of things to sniff and explore. We can stop at one of the small tearooms on the way for rest and refreshment, and maybe even go and say hello to the local lions. Yes, lions..!

Please let me know if there's anything you or your pet require for your own peace of mind. Our last pup was a three-legged rescue with both physical and behavioural issues, so we have over ten years experience dealing with dogs which might require some extra special attention. We're here to make sure you and your dog have the most stress-free break we can offer.
