Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs have always been my passion
I have had dogs in my life for over 30 years now. I started off with a part time job as a kennel maid and have now progressed to having 3 golden retrievers of my own, Indi, Orla and Samphire who is the tearaway!. I often look after their friends when the dog parents go awa on holiday. I have a nursing background and I have trained as a canine holistic therapist, pet first aid instructor and I have a particular interest in senior arthritic dogs because Indi suffers with this. I live with my husband in a bungalow in a village called Pott Row near Kings Lynn and we have a huge variety of dog walks around us. We love going to the beach and Sandringham which is just round the corner. I gun dog train Orla and Samphire and Indi has done a lot of obedience work but now enjoying retirement.

Ratings and reviews
We were so nervous about leaving Betty as this was the first time we’d ever left her. She’s a rescue dog and we normally take her away with us on holiday, so leaving her behind was a really big step for us. I was honestly quite apprehensive about how she would settle. From our first visit with Kim, though, we felt so much more reassured. Betty seemed really comfortable and quickly got involved with the other dogs — playing, having a drink, eating, pooping and tiddling… all those little things that told us she was happy and settling in! 😂 When we dropped her off, she was just as relaxed as she had been on our first visit, which was such a relief. Kim kept us updated with photos and messages while we were away, and that made such a difference. It meant we could actually relax and enjoy our weekend knowing Betty was happy and being well looked after. Kim, her family and dogs are absolutely lovely, and they completely understood how nervous we were about leaving Betty for the first time. We really couldn’t have asked for more positive experience. It’s given us such confidence knowing that Betty is happy, safe and so well cared for, and we’re now more than happy to leave her again. Betty will definitely be coming back to stay! ❤️🐾 thank you so much!
We left our Coco for the day with Kim. I couldn't ask for more from her. Very warm welcoming, full of passion and care , constant updates throughout the day. I strongly recommend her and her services.
Kim was lovely with Freya and Freya looked very relaxed and happy in her care. Kim was very helpful with pick ups and drops off which was certainly over and above what was expected. We would Definately recommend snd use Kim again Thankyou

Schedule
I have recently retired from the NHS but will be working a flexible part time role that fits in around the dogs. We walk twice daily and vary where we go. It can be travelling in the car or nearby across the fields. I often use secure dog paddocks so that I can train at the same time as having fun.
