Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Excellent as always - Clementine always seems really settled and Gemma is great at adapting to Clem’s needs (e.g. Gemma did a fab job of keeping Clem cooling in the recent heatwave)
Very professional and capable dog sitter! Gemma's property is well suited to overnight stays, and she provides updates to reassure anxious pet parents. She's very reliable, and clearly very experienced. We would look to Gemma in the future for overnight care.
My two dogs had a great time with Gemma for a trial sleepover and they will be staying with her again. Gemma was welcoming, put us at ease about leaving our pets with her, and kept us updated. Would not hesitate to recommend Gemma.
Gemma is always so helpful. Thank you
Gemma cared for Oggy with attentive love. She came home and settled very well into her normal routine. Excellent service. Thank you
Gemma has seen to my cat Freddie a few times now and sometimes last minute visits as well. Always does a great job of seeing to Freddie and gives me peace of mind he's in good hands. Thanks Gemma 😊

Schedule
Working with dogs is my full-time job, so their needs always come first! We head out on daily group walks, exploring different locations each time to keep things exciting and enriching for your pup. For dogs who are new to boarding with me, or those still working on their recall, I use long lines, giving them the freedom to exercise, play and explore in a way that’s both safe and fulfilling.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am licensed by calderdale council to provide boarding in my home, with a 4 star rating. Privately insured and fully DBS checked, giving you complete peace of mind. My garden is securely enclosed with a 6ft fence to keep everyone safe, and inside the house dogs have free roam and are always welcome on the sofa for cuddles! I also have space for crates if your dog uses one, so their routine can feel just like home.
Pets
A typical day
Alongside our daily walks, I love playing games that suit each dog’s breed and natural instincts. It’s all about breed fulfilment — giving them the chance to use their brains as well as their bodies, which keeps them happy, balanced and mentally stimulated. We’ve got plenty to choose from: balls, tug toys, cuddly toys, water toys, snuffle mats, snuffle balls, scent balls and even flirt poles! With so many enrichment activities on hand, there’s always something fun to keep tails wagging and minds busy.
