We’re a couple of dog lovers living in Balham, and this is a joint profile for both of us. I work from home three days a week, and my boyfriend is home full-time, so your dog will always have company. We’ve both grown up with dogs and still have a family dog we adore. We have access to outdoor space and are surrounded by lovely parks for walks. While we’re not quite ready to get a dog of our own, we’d love to care for yours and are reliable, attentive, and full of love for all dogs.

Katie and Nathan were fantastic, as always! Kevin has such a great time whenever he stays with them. He always looks so happy in all the photos Katie sends, and he comes home as the most content little pup. They take such amazing care of him, making sure he gets plenty of walks and adventures. I couldn’t recommend them more, it’s so reassuring knowing Kevin is in such caring and capable hands!

Katie and Nathan are fantastic! Kevin always has such a great time when he stays with them. They took amazing care of him, especially during the hot weather in London, making sure he stayed cool and comfortable. In every photo, Kevin looked relaxed, happy, and completely at home. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy sitters. Kevin can’t wait to hang out with them again! 🐾❤️

Doggy Day Care • Apr 02, 2026

Katie was fantastic and took such great care of Kevin. She was really communicative and flexible with pick-up and drop-off, which made everything so easy. Kevin was happy and relaxed when I collected him, which says it all. Highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Dog Walking • Nov 07, 2025

Thank you soooo much for walking Mark Noble! I'm glad he was in such good care and had entertainment breaks in the day while he adjusts to me going back into the office.

Schedule

Dog care fits really well into our routine! I work from home three days a week, and my boyfriend is home full-time, so there’s plenty of flexibility and someone is almost always around. We love getting out for walks in the local parks, and having a dog with us just makes it even better. We’re both active and organised, so we’re able to fit feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles seamlessly into our day

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a one-bedroom ground floor flat in Balham with direct access to a shared garden—perfect for fresh air and quick outdoor breaks. The flat is clean, safe, and dog-friendly, with plenty of space for your dog to relax. We’re very mindful of safety, making sure dogs are never left unattended. You can trust that your dog will be in a calm, caring environment where they’re treated like part of the family.

A typical day

Our typical day starts with a morning walk, run, or gym session, followed by working from home—we are usually in the house most of the day 9 to 6, We always take a break at lunch, which is a great time for a longer walk or something If the weather’s nice. We love getting out again after work for some fresh air. It’s a calm, consistent routine with plenty of time and flexibility to give your dog attention, exercise, and company throughout the day

Before looking after your dog, we’d love to know as much as possible to make sure you/they feel comfortable and happy. Things like their daily routine, feeding times, walking habits, any medical needs or allergies, and how they are around other dogs or people are really helpful. We’d also want to know about any behavioural quirks, training cues you use, and what makes them feel relaxed or anxious. The more detail, the better—it helps us provide the best possible care tailored to your dog’s needs.
