Pet care experience

Your pets home from home 🐶

Alex and I have been caring for dogs for over 15 years, mostly for family and friends. We have done everything from daily walks to sitting and boarding. We love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved—whether we’re out for a walk or just hanging out at home. Dogs are like family to us, and we treat them that way.

Helen and Alex were fantastic with Lando, he was very settled in their care and was well looked after, I couldn't have asked for better sitters. Helen gave regular updates with photos which was lovely, and gave up reassurance everything was fine. I would highly recommend Helen and Alex, and would definitely use them again.

Helen and Alex are lovely people, who both love dogs. They looked after Joey so well- he was reluctant to come back home!! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Helen kept us updated throughout the day and I'm sure Joey is looking forward to his next stay.

Just want to say a big thank you to Helen and Alex for Oscar’s most recent stay. It was so nice being away knowing that Oscar was being well looked after and being spoilt. Helen and Alex made Oscar feel part of the family and we had lots of great photos keeping us updated. Oscar can’t wait to come and stay again some time ♥️

A big thank you to Helen and Alex for looking after our mini labradoodle Oscar on Sunday! It was Oscar’s first stay and he was made to feel so welcome and had a lovely day! Communication was great during the day, Oscar can’t wait to come back and stay in a couple of weeks!

Schedule

Myself and my partner work from home 3/4 days per week alternate days so someone is always at home. We currently don’t have a dog but have grown up with dogs and miss the company of a dog in our home/to walk. We do 9-5 desk jobs so we’re available to walk in the mornings, lunch hours and evenings as well as let the dogs out for frequent toilet and sniff breaks.
