We both work from home, so your dog will have company all day long — no long hours alone. Our flexible schedules mean we can offer frequent walks, playtime, regular potty breaks, and constant supervision.

Safety, trust & environment
We have an enclosed rear patio plus fenced garden. We also live beside a beautiful forest and old railway path for perfect for long, peaceful walks and plenty of exercise. Your dog will enjoy a calm, safe environment with two attentive carers who genuinely love animals. Because we’ve cared for senior and medically delicate dogs, we’re confident following routines, giving medication if needed, and keeping pets comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and follow your instructions closely to keep them happy and secure

We're flexible with most dogs and their needs. Just let us know what your little friend needs and we'll do our best to accommodate them.
A typical day
My wife and I are very active and love walking, hiking, and running so we love high energy dogs. We also had an old Pomeranian with a great condition, so we're great with something more mellow, too.

Work-from-home couple with 30+ yrs dog experience
Pet care experience
We’re a dog-loving couple with over 30 years of combined experience. I grew up with beagles and a rottweiler, and together we cared for our Pomeranian with serious heart problems for 15 years. Dogs have always been part of our lives, and our friends, neighbours and families rely on us to walk, feed, comfort and care for their pets as if they were our own.
Reviews
James was amazing with our little Holly i was very anxious about leaving her as ive never done before but James and his partner put my mind at rest with plenty of photos and updates on how Holly was doing. Holly was very well cared for and I am so happy with the care she received and as a nervous owner I can 100% say I will be using James from now on should we need to leave Holly and i would recomend him to anyone looking for a doggy sitter
Testimonial from James’s Dad I’m happy to recommend James for pet sitting — he’s been fantastic with our Springer Spaniel for years. James has always had a natural connection with dogs, and I’ve watched him calmly handle everything from energetic puppy behaviour to caring for his own Pomeranian with serious heart problems. He’s reliable, patient, and genuinely cares about the wellbeing of every dog he meets. I trust him completely with my own dog, and any pet parent would be lucky to have him looking after theirs.
