WFH couple +2 pups welcome your dog
Hi, we’re James and Alice! We understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires a massive amount of trust. As experienced dog owners, our goal is to provide a safe, loving, and reliable "home away from home" where your dog can seamlessly slot into a healthy, happy routine. We share our home with two friendly resident dogs: Albus (a playful 5-year-old Shih Tzu) and Houdini (a sweet, 7-year-old rescue Kokoni who is an absolute lap dog). We are a predominantly adult-only household, meaning our home environment remains calm, predictable, and focused on the dogs. When we first adopted Houdini, he was a bit of a rescue escape artist (hence the name!). Because of this, we took no chances: our secure garden is now completely enclosed and 100% escape-proof. You can rest easy knowing your dog can explore the grass safely and securely. We generally prefer more chilled-out dogs who enjoy a mix of structured walks and relaxing while we work, but we are absolutely happy to welcome higher-energy dogs as long as they are friendly with other pups. Albus loves a good play session, and Houdini is always happy to share the space. Whether your dog wants to fetch a ball, enjoy a structured neighbourhood stroll, or just curl up next to our desks during a meeting, we can't wait to welcome them into the pack!

I haven known this couple for quite some time now and they are absolutely wonderful with their dogs. They are reliable and trustworthy, their great dog walkers
Cookie and Muffin had a lovely day with James and his wife. They clearly enjoyed their walks from the photos sent - with lots of fussing - and running around the garden. They got on well with James’ two dogs who were very friendly and will have been good company. It felt like a perfect home from home for them. Very pleased and will definitely be booking again.
My first experience leaving my dog with this wonderful couple. Can't recommend them more! They looked after my dog beautifully. She obviously has the time of her life with cuddles, playing with her new doggy friends and even a sausage! She seemed so chilled and very happy when I collected her. I was also sent reassuring photos of her having a great day. A fantastic choice of dogsitters. Cannot recommend them enough. Lovely couple. Fantastic service. Thank you 😊🐕
I can't recommend James highly enough. He and his lovely family have looked after my two fur babies on several occasions, and I have always had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. They are reliable, kind, friendly, and genuinely adore dogs, treating every pet as if they were part of their own family. My dogs are always happy, well cared for, and excited to see them again, which says everything. James is trustworthy, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable and reassured. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a loving and dependable pet sitter.

Because we both work from home full-time, your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. We have a wonderfully structured daily rhythm that keeps our dogs content, relaxed, and well-behaved: 7:00 AM: First walk of the day (30 minutes). If the weather permits, we head to the field to throw the ball for Albus. (Houdini remains on an extended lead - for obvious reasons 😂) 7:30 AM: Breakfast time, followed by a morning nap in the kitchen while we log on for work. 11:00 AM: A second 30-minute leg-stretcher walk around the local streets. Afternoon: Plenty of garden breaks for toilet trips and fresh air. 5:30 PM onward: Evening wind-down, dinner, a post-dinner snack, and plenty of sofa cuddles in the front room. Weekends: We love taking advantage of our free time with longer, scenic weekend walks.

Seguridad, confianza y entorno
Because we have our own two dogs, Albus and Houdini, safety and harmony are our top priorities. All introductions start with a mandatory "Meet & Greet" in the days / weeks beforehand to ensure a great fit. Once a guest arrives, initial interactions are strictly supervised. Because we work from home full-time, guest dogs are under our watchful eye throughout the day, ensuring everyone plays nice and respects each other's space. Our home features a fully enclosed garden that we have made 100% escape-proof—a project we took very seriously after adopting our rescue, Houdini, who liked to "wander" early on. Dogs can enjoy the fresh air and toilet breaks safely without any risk of slipping away. We maintain a highly structured routine around food, walks, and rest, which inherently keeps dogs calm and secure. To prevent any resource guarding, dogs are always fed separately and given their treats in designated spaces. While we work, the kitchen serves as a secure, cosy hub for downtime, and we use separate rooms if any pup ever needs a quiet, undisturbed rest or a time-out to decompress. Our upstairs area is a pet-free zone, so we don't have guest dogs sleeping upstairs. Instead, bedtime is fully downstairs: our boys, Albus and Houdini, sleep comfortably in the kitchen in their baskets (or on the sofa), and guest dogs will join them in this secure, cosy downstairs setup for a peaceful night's rest.
