Highlights
Pet care experience
A dog loving house with a large fenced garden
My husband, Sam, and I are both experienced with pets and have a genuine love for animals. We both grew up with dogs and have lots of experience with both nervous and excitable dogs and puppies. We have our own dog, Rudy, who is a well-trained working cocker spaniel. Rudy is very friendly and sociable. Over the years, we have cared for animals for friends, family and neighbours. We’ve looked after everything from high energy puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler approach. We’re confident with energetic breeds and understand how to tailor walks and play to their needs. We’re lucky to have a large fenced garden and lots of local walks near by. We can provide plenty of walks, play and of course lots of cuddles! We understand that every dog is unique, with their own routines and needs, and we’ll always work closely with you to make sure your dog feels safe, happy and right at home.

Ratings and reviews
We couldn’t have asked for better care for our spaniel, Angus. From the moment we left him, it was clear he was going to be well looked after. He was treated like one of the family, with lots of lovely walks, treats, fuss and attention throughout the week. We were also kept updated with regular photos and messages, which was fantastic and gave us real peace of mind knowing he was happy and having a great time. It was obvious how much care and affection they gave him, and Angus came home happy, relaxed and very well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam and Katherine and would definitely use them again. Thank you so much for looking after our boy so brilliantly! 🐾❤️
Katherine, Sam and their cocker Rudy looked after our sprocker Delia while we went on holiday. From meeting them early on to dropping Delia off they were so lovely, explained everything, took lots of info about our dog and what she does/doesn't like. They sent plenty of updates with picture so we knew she was having a great time and being looked after very well, which gave us peace of mind while away. (We hadn't left her before this, and she's 8, so wanted to be sure she'd be looked after!) She had plenty of cuddles, and we know she was very well cared for! Their large garden is great for burning off steam safely, and plenty of longer walks were had. Thank you to Sam and Katherine, we won't hesitate to use them again!
Ginny had a fab time with Katherine and Sam. Would highly recommend!!
Katherine & Sam were the perfect fit for our dog Ruby. They have a lovely house with a large back garden so Ruby could run around and play...especially with their dog Rudy! We were sent photos and videos all the time so we new she was safe and being well looked after. I think Ruby had as good a holiday as we did. We will definitely use Sam & Katherine again and would 100% recommend them to anyone else
We had an amazing experience – they were kind, attentive, and reliable. We received regular updates and felt completely at ease knowing our dog was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!
Katherine and Sam looked after Barley so well - he seemed very at home and looked like he had a great time on lots of walks. Would highly recommend! Thanks Katherine and Sam for having him and taking food care of him!

Schedule
Our routine can change depending on the week, so we cannot offer a regular day every week but we are around every weekend so can certainly offer weekend walks. We are always available in the evenings and have plenty of room if your pup needs to stay the night. Between us, we are available most of the time so please just ask!
