Pet care experience
Flexible, reliable dog sitting & boarding services
Hi I’m Jess! I’m excited to be able to offer dog boarding, sitting, drop in and walking services. I’m an animal lover and have 15+ years of experience looking after/living with dogs, cats and smaller animals like guinea pigs. I live in a terraced house with a secure garden, so I have space for 2 medium or 3 smaller dogs at a time. Bruce, my springer spaniel, is a friendly boy who will happily share his home with other dogs. Bruce has access to all rooms in the house and is allowed on furniture and beds, so I have no qualms with doing that for any dogs spending time with me. I have experience with reactivity, resource guarding and separation anxiety/anxious dogs, as well as young dogs and puppies, and welcome both balls of energy and chilled quiet doggos! Every dog is different and I welcome each and every one of them! As an owner of an anxious dog, I know how nerve-racking it is having to leave them with someone else. My promise to you is that I’ll treat any doggo I look after with the same level of care as I would expect for someone looking after Bruce! I’m also very flexible with walking times, sleep routines and so on and can work this around your dog’s needs. Please note: Bruce has not been neutered yet - he can be a bit grumbly with intact males (though usually gets over it quickly) so I would suggest meeting on a walk beforehand if your male dog hasn’t been neutered and you are interested in services at my home. The other dog mentioned in my profile is my mum and dad’s dog, he does not live with me - he’s on my profile incase I need to book boarding myself. I would ideally like to meet you and your dog before confirming boarding or daycare services to ensure I am the right fit for you but can accept last minute bookings most of the time. Any questions, just ask 🐶🐾

Ratings and reviews
Our dog, Milo, had a fabulous stay with Jess for two weeks while we were away cruising on the Med. It was wonderful to leave him in her very capable hands and know he was being well looked after. We had great peace of mind knowing he was being cared for so well. Thank you Jess.
This is the 2nd time we’ve left our cocker spaniel with Jessica and he has been well looked after both times. We get regular updates and numerous photos. He always looks happy and cared for like he was one of the family. Thank you again, we would definitely use you again to take care of our dog if you’ll have him.
Biscuit’s 4th stay with Jess and once again he loved every second! Jess is amazing and Biscuit always has the best time, and we feel so reassured knowing he’s with someone who puts so much time and effort into looking after him. We
I left my dog Sadie for three nights with Jess. Jess has been absolutley amazing. She kept me updated throughout the entire 4 days, which gave me a great peace of mind so I could enjoy my travels. Sadie was very well looked after. I could see in the pictures and videos how happy she was and what a great time she had during her stay. 10/10 *. Definitely recommend Jess looking after your pup!
Milo has had the best week staying with Jess and her lovely dog Bruce. Jess was so welcoming and we met before he was due to stay which helped put me at ease. Jess asked lots of questions about Milo so that she could make his stay comfortable for him and stress free as possible. I didn't have to worry leaving him with her as he had the time of his life going on long walks, playing ball with Bruce and having plenty of cuddles with the humans too! He's still exhausted now from all the fun he's had! Jess sent me lots of photos of Milo whilst I was away and kept me updated with what he had been up to. I honestly got so lucky finding Jess and I wouldn't hesitate in using her boarding services for Milo again - infact I think Milo is waiting for me to book another holiday so he can go and visit again!!
I cannot recommend Jess highly enough. Hugo was 8 months old when he stayed with Jess (mon - Friday) so he is full of energy and loves getting into mischief. He’s blissfully snoring away next to me as I write this after holiday. It was our first time leaving him for more than one night and I think he was a bit disappointed to come home. I got lots of updates, whether that was pictures of him on muddy walks or just funny stories and Jess enjoying learning Hugo’s quirks. I also got really quick responses when I just felt the need to know he was okay. We met first at a local park so Hugo could meet resident dog Bruce and we could discuss routines / Hugo’s needs. We got a checklist of what we needed to leave when we dropped him off. He was super excited to empty the toy box when we dropped him off. Hugo absolutely loved staying with Jess and she put us at ease so quickly. Thanks so so much for looking after my gorgeous boy, we look forward to seeing you again soon!!

Schedule
I predominantly work from home so am around to keep your doggo/s entertained throughout the day, and work flexible hours so I can work around walks and playtime! I have blocked out Mondays and Wednesdays as my set days in the office to make it less confusing but if you do require a Wednesday, please let me know and I’ll see if I can figure it out! I have no strict routine at the weekend and so can mould this to accommodate an individual dog’s needs.

A typical day
There is nearby fields, parks, secure fields and woods that are all great for dog walks so there are lots of options to suit all needs. Along with playtime with Bruce, doggos can expect enrichment activities - I play sniffing games with my dog regularly for example! Playtime, garden time and cuddles will also all be included where wanted!
