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.

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!

Katherine and Sam were absolutely brilliant with my dog Basil. They treated him as their own, took him on lots of walks and sent frequent photos and updates of Basil living his best life with their lovely dog Rudy. We had some issues with our return train journey and they were completely understanding and flexible. Basil even came home smelling amazing after being treated to a post muddy walk bath. I wholeheartedly recommend Katherine and Sam, Basil will be back!

Katherine and Sam helped look after my Cocker Spaniel Astro for several years during the pandemic. They are both natural dog lovers & Astro adored staying with them - he would always pull with excitement when I would drop him off! It brought me peace of mind to know I could go to work or go on holiday without any worries and know he was in good hands.

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!
