Highlights
Pet care experience
Active and experienced dog lovers
My partner and I also live directly opposite a huge park within fields and meadows by Lea Valley park. This is such a beautiful place to live and has loads of incredible walking spots and vast fields. We also have our own private land consisting of 15 acres so if your dog isn’t sociable, we can bring them there and let them run and sniff all day long! We are encouraging, caring and thoughtful and always pride ourselves on doing the best for the clients and dogs we look after. We’re committed to creating strong bonds with the dogs in our care and strive to keep their daily routines as active or as relaxed as you’d want! We have our own Dalmatian x Rough Collie dog named Edie - taking her home at 12 weeks means we understand puppy, adolescent and adult dog behaviours. We have trained her extensively and she has great recall and can do some fun tricks! (Our dog won’t be present during the sits so don’t worry if your dog isn’t too keen!) Alongside our own dog, we frequently house sit at a clients home, sorting out house duties and looking after their 15 year old Cockapoo, Coco. We administer her medication orally twice a day and take her on short walks. We have strong experience caring for the needs of senior dogs - knowing when to give them space or time to rest/recover. We also frequently dog sit Bridie’s sisters dog Bambi, a Dachshund x Springer Spaniel. She is exceptionally energetic so we take time training her, taking her on long runs and improving her recall. We’ve got a 30m long lead so we can practice recall safely with your furry friend :) Overall, we have varied experience working with dogs of all ages and sizes. We enjoy being active and training dogs so they’ll always be well looked after in my care. I’ve (Bridie) had dogs all my life, it’s second nature to me now! Our first family dog was Poppy, a beautiful mixed breed (Alsatian x collie) from our local rescue centre. She lived a long and fruitful life, going on regular walks through the forest and was soon joined by another furry friend, Spike. Her boisterous and loving sidekick — a staffy!! Our family then decided to get a brother, sister duo called Lunar and Rambo. They were puppies when we got them. They’re super relaxed dogs, who LOOOVEE food!

Ratings and reviews
Laura and Bridie were brilliant with Simba, thank you girls!! I recieved updates and photos each day and it was clear he settled in with them v quickly, and was being pampered. Simba loved his little holiday so much he didn’t want to come home! They put my mind at ease. completely and I highly recommend them. God bless you both xxx

Schedule
Laura-Mae is currently working part-time meaning I have extra time to look after your dog and their needs. Bridie works full time but is completely remote so can always come along on morning walkies! We’re both very communicative and can’t wait to look after your fur baby to ensure they are fully comfortable. We are always up for a morning walk so your dog can easily join us ! We are strict on feeding and medication times so will always be prepared for this. Laura-Mae is very organised so have set routines that I like to follow so am happy to implement routines with your pets and be as relaxed or as regimented as you’d like. We also have a car with a dog seatbelt so can easily take them further afield to the nearby forests and go on a hike or take them to get a new toy or treat!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced medium garden/patio area in the front of our flat so they can be supervised in the front if they need some fresh air or a quick wee! We have space for crates of any size so can crate your pets if needed or do crate training. There will be no other pets staying with us so your fur baby will have our 100% love and attention. We’d always send photos and videos of your pets enjoying the lovely fields around us. We have been trusted with house keys, security systems, medication, cleaning, plant watering, etc so if we come round and supervise your dog/cat from your home - We can also help around the house! (Laura-Mae loves cleaning!)
Pets
A typical day
As we’re used to having high energy dogs around us, we tend to go on a long walk in the morning. But if that’s not your dogs style, we use lick mats and enrichment toys to ensure they get the stimulation they need - the sofa is always an option if they want to cosy up with us! We live right by some lovely meadows and fields with access to 15 acres of private land so your dog, no matter what the temperament or energy level, can enjoy the outdoor space all to themselves. We also like to make use of the resources around us. We have toys including balls, soft toys, and usually give our dog a cheese bone after a long hike!
