Matlock Home - Dog Boarding & Day Care for all

Pet care experience

I have been brought up around dogs and have never lived without one. I currently have a Labrador and Border Collie (Bumble and Gus) who are great characters and well trained (both neutered). They are amenable, but it is important that your dog is friendly with people and other dogs for them to board at my home. Naturally, myself and partner, Ro, are comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels! I currently work from home so it is rare I leave the dogs unattended and am able to let them out at regular intervals throughout the day. I walk my two dogs early in the morning, and for an hour or so after work. However, I am happy to adjust my habits to suit a dog's routine if you would prefer! At weekends, my partner and I tend to walk longer distances in and around the Peak District with our dogs. However, we're more than happy to go steady if you have a older dog, puppy, or dog with health issues etc. I have a garden at the front and rear of the house, as well as access to huge areas of green space within a two minute walk of my home. The nearby river provides great entertainment for the dogs throughout the summer. I am happy to walk your dog on or off the lead (when safe to do so), and sleep them with my other two dogs downstairs, either in or out of a crate.

Really happy to leave my dog with James, he & his partner are very caring people, taking their own and guest dog for lovely long walks. Already have future bookings with James.

Information James H. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know if you have any special requirements for your dog, or if you dog has any behavioural or medical issues that I need to be aware of.

A typical day

On a normal day I would work from home between 8am and 4pm letting the dogs out at regular intervals. Typically, I would take the dogs a short walk before I start work, and go for a longer walk in the evening. My partner Ro works in community nursing so normally has more of an input at weekends. I enjoy walking on the riverside and letting my dogs splash in the water when the weather is warm enough.
