Pet care experience
A home away from home for your dogs
We share our home with Lemmy, our 3-year-old German Shepherd–Rottweiler cross. He has a fantastic temperament and an excellent ability to read other dogs. If a dog wants to play, he’ll happily join in for hours; if they prefer space, he’ll respect that and leave them alone. He’s calm, well-balanced, walks reliably off-lead, and often has a soothing influence on more nervous or excitable dogs. We have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including reactive dogs. Over the years, we’ve boarded more than 100 different dogs and have experience both walking dogs individually and managing pack walks. This means we’re confident assessing behaviour, managing group dynamics, and tailoring care to each dog’s individual needs. Our home is a welcoming, relaxed, and safe space where dogs are treated as part of the family. Dogs are welcome on the sofa, can bring their own bed, or are more than welcome to use Lemmy’s. We aim to provide a calm, loving environment so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

Ratings and reviews
Rosie wos always so well taken care of! She loves playing and running around with Lemmy. Always feel so comfortable leaving her with George. Thanks again.
George was a fantastic pet sitter for Douglas and Dexter. My dogs took to him as soon as they saw him and he was very reliable and helpful throughout the booking process. I would highly recommend George as a dog sitter.
Amazing sitter as always! Rosie always has a great time and we can enjoy our holiday knowing she is in good hands! Thanks again!

Schedule
Currently I can take bookings any time and any day. I walk my dog for between 5 and 10 miles per day across Sheffield and the peak district. I can tailor walks and exercise to suit your dog. Lemmy is left alone for no more than one hour per day on most days as both my wife and I work from home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a three bedroom house with two spare rooms. Dogs are allowed upstairs and on furniture. I have a large garden and live a 10 minute walk from a park and two sets of woods. I also have a car with a dog guard and harness points in the boot and often visit farther afield places to walk the dogs. I will be at home for the vast majority of the time during the day and evening. I can cater for all needs.
Pets
A typical day
I get up early, feed the dog and prepare for the day. I usually take the dog on a walk first thing, 3-5 miles then a shorter afternoon walk if required. I have know of many walks to suit all types of dogs.
