Availability

I work two days a week from home, starting at 9am so can do pick up anytime before. I’m an early riser so morning walks before 9am are no problem. I have an hour for lunch break where I love to get out of the house, and from 5.30pm free as a bird! Boarding over the weekend is no problem and for all day care I’d be taking your pooch of 2-3 walks a day if that suits the dog. Of course if elderly and needs shorter/less walks that’s not a problem!

Pet care experience

Myself and my fiancé, Elliot, have grown up with pets all our lives and miss having dogs around so much! We live in St Albans with both Clarence Park and Verulamium Park in super easy reach and we feel at a loss going for walks without a pooch in tow. We’re super active and love to be outside (no matter the weather). We’re a relatively low key, responsible and chilled couple. Both of us have experience looking after our family dogs as puppies, right through to old age. We also appreciate how much of a family member they are and that it’s scary leaving your dog with someone else who you hardly know - we’d of course be open to meeting anyone and their dog before needing to commit to us taking care of them - trust is so important! We promise to care for and love your pooch just as you would :)

Willow had a lovely stay with Holly. She couldn’t wait to go in, and obviously felt right at home. Holly sent regular updates and was a really great dog carer! Willow hopes to return soon!

Holly was amazing looking after Betsy for a few nights. She sent regular updates putting my mind at rest and nothing was too much trouble (as Betsy is a fussy eater!). I think she didn’t want to come home as she was so quiet in the car home looking out of the window 😂 thank you so much!

We recently left our dog with Holly for the day and we were so happy with the communication and photos throughout the day - it is always nice to see them relaxed and being well looked after. Holly took our energetic dog on a few long walks and managed to tire him out! Our dog can be quite anxious but Holly was great at welcoming him and letting him sniff around and get used to her bourse before we left. Thanks again Holly!

Mila had a wonderful time with Holly. Great walks, great cuddles and plenty of fuss!
