Loving Boarding with Pup Playmate & Secure Garden
Hi, I’m Kirsty – a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet parent offering a safe, loving home for your dog while you’re away! I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have been a proud dog mum for the past 7 years. I understand how important it is to know your pup is happy, secure, and well-loved while you’re apart – and that’s exactly what I offer. I live in a dog-friendly home with a large, secure garden where dogs can safely play and explore. I also share my home with my playful and friendly 2-year-old female dog Daphne, who loves making new friends. Whether your pup enjoys a game of chase, lounging in the sun, or just some quiet companionship, we’re here to make them feel at home.

Ratings and reviews
Kirsty was great looking after our dog Kevin. She was really welcoming and communicative with us. Kevin has a few extra needs which she was really understanding of and accommodating for. We will be using Kirsty to look after him again!
Kirsty is paws down the best dog mommy around! She’s caring, kind, and treats all dogs like the top dog she is—every pup’s dream sitter, fur-tastic!

Schedule
As a teacher I will be off work during school holidays. During this time I’m home full-time—so your dog will have lots of company, attention, and care throughout the day. Our day typically includes morning walks, garden playtime, rest breaks, enrichment games, and lots of cuddles. I keep feeding times and routines consistent with what your dog is used to, and I’m happy to accommodate any special needs or preferences.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer a secure, dog-friendly environment with a fully enclosed garden for safe outdoor play. Dogs are never left unattended outside, and I supervise all play to ensure everyone gets along happily. Inside, dogs have free access to cozy, clean spaces and are treated like part of the family. I follow your dog’s usual routine—whether that’s crate use, feeding schedule, medication, or preferred sleeping arrangements—to help them feel settled and secure. With 7+ years of experience caring for dogs, and a friendly resident pup to keep them company, I provide a calm, structured, and loving home-from-home where your dog will be safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

A typical day
With my own friendly dog as a built-in playmate, your pup will enjoy plenty of social interaction and stimulation while feeling relaxed in a calm, home-from-home setting.
