I prefer to meet up with you before booking so we can talk through some the below. It also gives us chance to introduce our dog to yours (although we’ve yet to meet any dog he hasn’t gotten along with!) Here's a list of important information I'd like to know about your pet ahead of time: 1. Details about your pet's daily routine, preferred walking times, feeding schedule, and any specific dietary preferences or restrictions so we can do our best to accommodate. 2. Any medical conditions, allergies, or medications your pet requires. It's also essential to have your vets contact information in case of emergencies - we should be able to get this off Rover so just check it’s up to date! 3. Insights into your pet's temperament, socialisation level, and any behavioural quirks or triggers to be aware of. This helps me tailor their care and ensure a comfortable environment. 4. Information about any obedience training or commands your pet knows, as well as any ongoing training goals or techniques you'd like me to reinforce. 5. Details about your pet's energy level, favourite activities, and preferred toys or games. This helps me plan engaging and enjoyable activities for them throughout the day. 6. Any specific comforts or routines that help soothe your pet, as well as any anxiety triggers or strategies to help them feel safe and secure in my care - especially important around firework season! 7. In addition to your veterinarian's information, it's helpful to have emergency contact numbers for you or a trusted individual who can make decisions on your pet's behalf if needed - again we can usually get this from Rover, so just make sure it’s up to date! By providing this information ahead of time, I can ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for both you and your beloved pet during their stay with me.

Here's a typical day in the life of your doggo under my care: Your doggo will start their day with a morning walk with my husband, me & our dog George, usually in our local fields or forest, followed by breakfast. Afterward, we usually engage in a play or training session. Then, while I settle in for a couple of hours of work, your doggo can enjoy some downtime, continue with light play with George or enjoy chewing the (many!) safe chews we have on hand. Come lunchtime, they'll have the option to play in our fenced backyard or join me for another walk. In the afternoon, I usually introduce them to an enrichment toy, like a frozen Kong, to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained whilst I get a bit more work done. In the evening, your doggo can embark on another leisurely stroll with my husband and me, before enjoying their dinner. Sometimes we skip the evening walking if it looks like everyone’s too tired and instead we’ll relax on the sofa together - especially if it’s been a busy day! On some evenings, they might even have the opportunity to socialise with my friends and their furry companions over dinner. Throughout the day, their well-being and happiness will remain my top priority, ensuring they have a tail-wagging good time under my care.
