WFH - 1 Dog At a Time

Pet care experience

Dogs have been part of our family for over 20 years. We no longer have a pet of our own, having said goodbye to our beautiful 14-year-old cocker spaniel Maddie. That means we can focus on yours. We prefer a minimum of two nights.

Julie and Peter took good care of our senior dog. They gave her medication as prescribed and kept her company while we were away.

Julie and Peter were very kind and thorough! I received pictures and updates without having to ask, which helps ease my mind while I’m away from Henry! They treated him like their own dog and we’ll definitely be booking with them again!

Julie and Peter were great. They sent pictures everyday and Roxy made herself at home. She loved sunbathing. We will definitely use them again.

Julie and Peter are wonderful, and my dog clearly agrees! From the start, they were warm, reliable, and easy to trust, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was genuinely happy and well cared for. Finding sitters you feel 100% confident about is rare, and I’m so glad I found them here. I will absolutely be booking with them again!
