Dedicated dog carer - dachshund experienced

Pet care experience

I have owned dogs of various breeds and sizes for over 30 years and now am the owner of a miniature dachshund - I have trained them all from puppies and am also familiar with senior care. As I now work only part time , my days off and weekend are spent with my dog. Having struggled with finding people to look after my own dog , I have decided to use my spare time to provide a safe, stimulating environment for others. Being a dachshund owner , I am used to the traits of the breed and am very conscious of protecting their back. I live near to a park and often go to Trentham gardens for walks . As I have my own miniature dachshund - who loves other Daxies- I would be looking to care for similar in my own home. Home visits to any breed , both large and small are fine.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours that I need to be aware of. I am happy to assist in potty training puppies but adult dogs must be toilet trained.

Lots of play in the garden with a variety of toys, play hide and seek with treats. I provide mental stimulation toys. If you dog likes to snuggle on the sofa or bask in the sunshine then that’s what they’ll do .. we walk in the local park and I regularly go to Trentham gardens for lovely walks and socialisation.. let me know the needs of your dog and I will do my best to accommodate them.
