Couple who love paws of all sizes and traits

Myself and my husband Rajesh used to be foster parents for a rescue based at Southampton and we have adopted a partial deaf rescue dog so we understand the special needs of rescue dog as well. We have fostered 10 plus rescue dogs of all sizes and breeds and now looked after 20 plus dogs through Rover. We will take it slow with the dogs so that they can be on their own timeline to warm up to us. Also DBS checked

Safety, trust & environment

We would be happy to look after the dogs at the owners home or at my place. Our dog is like a family member to me, therefore we know how it feels to leave your dog, so we will be posting you updates so that you can be at peace.

Rajesh did a wonderful job of taking care of dolly! She was super relaxed when we came home and obviously enjoyed her walkies, thanks again!

House Sitting • Sep 19, 2024

Hema and Rajesh watched Maisy in their home, and Maisy loved it! They're a great team and took wonderful care of our pooch. They were very communicative, accommodated our scheduling needs, and overall did a wonderful job. We're very happy and will definitely use them again for future overnight sitting.

Doggy Day Care • Jan 05, 2024

Hemalatha and her husband gave us a helping hand when we needed an emergency day care. Lovely, flexible couple, clean house. We felt that our greyhound was safe and lovingly cared for.

Schedule

I (Hema) am a researcher and my work is flexible and Rajesh works from home most of the days. But there are days when we both have to be physically at work. So we would like the pet parents to inform us in advance so that we can schedule accordingly. We can then coordinate between ourselves to take care of the dogs and ensuring they have company all the time If you need last minute bookings, I will try my best to see if it is possible.
