Licensed, loving home for your dog
Pet care experience
We are a husband and wife team with a shared love for dogs. As a family of four there is always someone going for a walk and on hand to play and care for your pet, as if it were our own. Living directly opposite the park makes this our “go to” regular walk, although we are always adding new venues and activities with lots to smell and places to run and exercise. At home we have a securely enclosed garden with several mature trees and lots of bushes providing a never-ending supply of squirrels to chase. There are deliberately no flower beds or no-go areas to ruin the fun. Our current pet is the fourth dog we have owned and totals just under 50 years of experience with loving and caring for them. We understand what a beloved member of the family your pet is and why it is essential to find the right care service for them. Fully licensed and insured. Licence Number 114088/25

Home from Home! When you just know your pet dog is going to be more than looked after, you get that sense & to be honest, we've boarded 'Humphrey' over the years at a select few homes, but having just picked him up this morning from Emma & Julian's we could not have picked a more lovely welcoming, warm (despite the heat) and loving family for H to spend a couple of days with. He's had a fantastic time, mixed well with all, looks like he's been more than pampered and spoilt & looks as though he's slotted in perfectly.... what more could you ask for!? (No they don't do B&B yet lol) but thank you Emma and Julian, perfect hosts, kept us informed, plenty of walks, food/meal-times absolutely spot on, and now back home, he probably, in a dogs world had a great time. We cannot recommend enough, lovely warm genuine people a pleasure to have met! Looking forward to the next stay! it will be home from home without doubt. Thank you both.

A big thank you to Emma and Julian for having Dylan to stay at short notice. Emma and Julian were very welcoming and thorough in finding out about Dylan’s daily routine and little quirks and needs. I was most reassured by this and knew Dylan was going to very well looked after. Their dog, Millie, was very patient with Dylan too as he was very excited to have her company. When I collected Dylan he was clearly a very happy boy and very comfortable with Emma and Julian - I know he had a good time being with them even though it was during the June heatwave! Dylan is looking forward to going back one day soon I just hope Emma and Julian will have space for him and not be too busy with other dogs staying!!

Julian & Emma were amazing! Chive loved his stay so much and they were both so lovely and professional. They made sure they knew everything before we left, and he didn’t want to come back when we picked him up! It was a lovely little holiday for him. Thank you so much to you both! Our boisterous border collie is eagerly awaiting his next visit!

Julian and Emma were absolutely brilliant looking after my greyhound Tricky. Very quick to respond, very flexible with availability and times when booking. Really helpful when communicating, and were clearly brilliant with dogs when we did a meet and greet. I had updates of how Tricky was getting on and they were very accommodating and recognising the hot weather and adapting to his needs! Booked in again!
