Dog lovers in 500 acre ancient common
Pet care experience
We are proud dog parents in the middle of what we call a dog's paradise, 500 acres of ancient expanse of woodland, grassland, lakes and natural spring water. The common has an abundance of wildlife and is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) by Natural England. Our property is the last along the lane so we have no passing traffic. It's ideal for dogs and nature lovers alike, a truly subversive sensory experience on or off lead. My husband, our Labraspoodle dog Buddy and I, all love it here, we are really hands on and enjoy training as well as enrichment play, lengthy walks and cuddling on the sofa. We have always had pets around, loved and cared for animals. We have knowledge in obedience training and trained Buddy from 6 weeks old, so we will happily reinforce any training practice your dog is learning. Our garden is securely fenced and always accessible for roaming, toilet breaks, ball fetching or basking in the sun. We have toys, beds, treats and chews as well as lots of games for brain stimulation and enrichment. Your dog will be looked after like one of our own. We can provide short or lengthy walks depending on your dog's needs, plenty of exercise and play, lots of cuddles and restful naps, treats and rewards.
Reviews
We were a bit nervous as we rarely leave our dog with anyone but family, Georgie and her husband were amazing from start to finish, sending detailed daily updates with photos and videos and treating our dog like he was their own. He had an amazing time in their care and we couldn’t have asked for more.
We left our dog with Georgie for a week and he had the best time ever! Georgie is very kind and they looked after him very well, we had daily updates and he went on lovely walks and swims which he loves. We think he probably didn’t want to come home! We wouldn’t hesitate to ask Georgie to look after him again, and would highly recommend her to anyone else.
We was very nervous about leaving our girl with strangers but Georgie and Steve have been absolutely amazing. They sent pictures, videos and kept us updated throughout her stay which put our minds at ease. We would Definitely recommend them to other dog owners. Vera well and truly enjoyed her time with them , thank you
We really couldn’t be any happier with the care received by our 7mth old retriever puppy. Georgie is exceptional and really understands dogs. She sends us lovely little video clips, so that we know that our dog is safe and is having a fabulous time. When we arrive, Monty wags his tail in sheer excitement and when we pick him up he is happily exhausted. Simply excellent- thank you so much Jim Gorecki

Safety, trust & environment
Our garden is vast and fenced off. Whether out in the garden or inside, our dog is our shadow and follows our tempo, as trained. Always with us, always by our side so keeping him safe is paramount. We are in the middle of a self build, with my husband being the designer, project manager and most likely doing some activities too, so exciting times ahead. Our old bungalow has been demolished and the the our build is progressing slowly but surely. I attached pictures of our current abode, of which we are really proud and which we built ourselves. Back garden is safe and plenty big enough to explore.

Information Georgie F. would like to know about your pet
Please let us know more about your dog's temperament around other dogs, animals as well as any dietary requirements, treatments, allergies, any fears or dislikes, sleeping arrangements and any training you would like us to reinforce. Please make us aware of any quirks, fears or worries in order to preempt any future situations. We want your dog to be home from home and really enjoy his/her time away also. We would also like to know whether their walks are on/off lead with reliable recall. Please ensure that their vaccines, deworming, flea and tick treatments are up to date at the point of booking.
A typical day
The 500 acre common we live in is like an extension to our garden and we love exploring it daily with Buddy and other dogs. The lakes are good for doggie swimming, the woods offer plenty of smells to sniff and playing fetch or find it are the preferred game on our daily walks.

Availability
We are fortunate enough to be at home all day, free to make our own schedules. Our dog is never left on his own, so yours won't be either. We will be more than happy to provide regular photos /videos and updates each day. I walk our dog in the common daily, usually 5 to 7 km, come rain or shine. The walks are a mix of free sniffing and roaming around the woods, obedience commands, find it games and off lead control. We sometimes come across horse riders, cyclists, children, deer, squirrels, wild birds, so please make me aware if your dog is not good with any of the above. These are good events to reinforce obedience training.
