This retreat is the perfect fit for curious dogs who love having a dedicated human, and owners who want absolute peace of mind knowing their dog is living their best life. ------ For the adventurous dog, a standard kennel or busy pet-sitter won't do. This could be your ideal alternative. I offer an exclusive retreat designed specifically for spirited dogs who love to explore, discover, and enjoy life to the absolute fullest. ----- I offer exclusivity by hosting only one dog at a time, or two from the same family. Your dog receives my dedicated time and companionship, with no need to compete for attention. ----- Relaxing, secure indoor spaces for curling up and resting. Calm, patient interactions that prioritize emotional safety and low-stress communication. ----- Sprinting and roaming through expansive fields. Water activities and splashing in the local river. Freestyle wandering across picturesque landscapes. ----- Pacing guided by the dog's personal choices and physical needs. Balanced transitions between high-energy adventure and quiet downtime.

About Helen D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a garden, which they are free to use. I enjoy going for walks which are plentiful in the surrounding area. I live near a river and don't mind a muddy walk, or the clean up after but if you prefer that your dog doesnt go in water or around mud do let me know.
Home
Information Helen D. would like to know about your pet
I welcome plenty of information on commands, communication and care for each dog, it's good to be aware of any essential 'do's and don'ts' when out in public socializing or at home. As always, once we get to know each other, I'm sure I'll pick up quickly on what your dog's needs are.
A typical day
Our days would be a mix of chilling at home and taking walks in the countryside, I tend to judge the day depending on the weather, if it's to hot it's better to stop inside and keep cool. I'm not afraid of a bit of mud and dirt, so, if it's a wetter day we will likely go for a walk. It all depends on the dog, their stamina and respecting the wishes of the dog owners too. When at home I like to keep them entertained with toys or games as well to keep their minds occupied.

Hidden Gem: Peaceful Retreat
Pet care experience
I offer the dogs that stay with me a personalised approach to care that respects how they think and what they need. I love balancing fun outdoor adventures like running in fields and splashing in rivers with cozy, stress-free indoor rest. Most importantly, I create a safe, welcoming space where dogs can clearly tell me what they want and feel completely happy at their own pace.
Reviews
Helen cared for Lenny whilst we were on holiday. Her communication was great throughout the holiday and booming process. She dealt with an emergency that came up very well and we came home to a happy dog who had clearly enjoyed his stay
Helen's communication was great beforehand and during the booking. Lenny looked very happy in all of the photos and videos she sent. We have rebooked!
Leo had a fab stay with Helen. He was instantly relaxed in her company and loved all the countryside walks!
Bella had a great time with Helen. Excellent communication and lots of photos and videos sent during her stay. Would definitely book again 🙂
