Pet care experience

Country retreat for your best friend.

We live in a home set in 10 acres of securely fenced paddocks and parkland. We have 3 horses, and a stable cat, who does keep himself to himself, but I would prefer to avoid dogs who knowingly chase cats. We have two of dogs, a Weimerarnar and a Jack Russel. They are extremely welcoming of other dogs and we have a lot of space to roam in safety. We can go for walks around our own land on or off the lead. Your dog will sleep in the same room as my own dogs but they will have their own independent space, whilst still having company. I do not accept dogs the require to sleep on the sofa or upstairs on the bed! I do not leave my dogs for more than 3 hours at any time, so I am pretty much always at home. I understand how difficult it is to go away if you are not sure your pet is going to be happy and well cared for. I offer your pet a loving environment to ensure you can relax in the knowledge that your best friend will be looked after carefully and loved like one of the family. I will only ever accept 2 dogs from the same family. I will never mix dogs from another family during any stay, so you can be assured that your dog is my priority. I do not let dogs upstairs but they do sit with us as one of the family in the evenings. I find dogs are happier if they have some of their own belongings with them like their own bed/blanket etc. I prefer female speyed dogs but will consider small male neutered dogs. I always request a meet and greet before accepting a booking to ensure we are all happy. It is also beneficial to have a trial visit and ideally an overnight stay before embarking on multiple night stays. This ensures the dog is comfortable and stress free during its stay. For the avoidance of doubt, an overnight stay is 24 hours from the time of drop off to the time of collection. Anything over an hour additional time, will be charged at my standard day rate. I am not the cheapest sitter, (but the Ritz isn't the cheapest hotel). I do however offer an amazing service in a safe environment where your pet can have freedom, fun and become part of the family.

This was Poppy’s first visit with Lesley and what a wonderful day she had and came home tired and contented. We will certainly use Lesley again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a 5 star B&B for their beloved ? thank you Lesley.

This was a trial overnight stay with Lesley, after last week's day care booking, and it was absolutely perfect. Both dogs were relaxed, happy, and well looked after. They slept without a peep and came home tired and happy.

Doggy Day Care • Jan 08, 2020

From the moment we got in touch with Lesley, to picking our dogs up after their first 'away day' yesterday, it has been fantastic. Lesley picked up on the fact that we (like most other owners) adore our dogs and just want the best for them. Well, it was the best that they got - they spent time out with her on the farm playing and walking, had down-time in her beautiful cottage and were looked after as if they were her own. We have been looking for a very long time for someone like her to care for our pets so we can have some freedom and we have finally found her. Thank you, Lesley and from Harry and Mabel too!
