I have always had dogs for most of my life, i believe dogs are part of your family and should be treated and looked after as you would treat and look after your kids.

Ratings and reviews
Jim did a cracking job of looking after Jim, our Parso Russell Terrier, Jim came home tired and happy, both signs of an enjoyable day. Thanks again Ian, hope we’ll see you soon.

Ian was an incredible host. He and his family welcomed Nala with open arms. Nala also seemed very relaxed on all the photos that he sent me through whilst we were apart. I would absolutely recommend Ian as a host and would definitely use him again.

Ian and family literally treat Pepper as part of their family xx

Dotty stayed with Ian and his family for 4 nights . We received regular updates with photos which reassured us dotty was settled as I was a little worried but there was no need to , as Dotty appeared to have a lovely stay . She loves attention which she had and so wouldn’t hesitate to leave her again with Ian and his family

Lovely family. Safe walks for my reactive dog. Great comms.

Ian and his family looked after our 12 year old staffy cross Bobbi. This is the first time Bobbi's stayed with anyone other than family since we've had her. Ian's easy communication and clear love of dogs eased our anxiety. He provided regular updates when were away and she's come home her usual happy self. We'd recommend Ian and would definitely let him take care of Bobbi again.

Schedule
I have been working from home now for 5 years so i am always here i don't work long hours either so there will be plenty of time time for interaction. I go for walks daily before or after work depending on shift time and i am also a football referee so not worried about long walks for dogs that need extra excersize. I have looked after dogs for friends quite often and have had dogs of my own too.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced nice sized back garden, so plenty of space for play, secure gate so no way of escaping. I live opposite a farm which you can happily walk through which comes out onto the transpennine trail, so lots of nice walking routes.
A typical day
I have dog toys already from looking after friends dogs, my back garden is big enough for play time to keep your dogs entertained and happy.
