Pet care experience

Experienced dog family with garden

I am a neuroscientist living with an extremely friendly and well trained golden retriever and Labrador cross boy in a house with garden in headington. I’d be happy to take on one more dog with me and Louis’ schedule during this Christmas and new year. We have lived here for 5 years - meaning I know all the secret footpaths for dog walking in and around Oxford! Experienced with large, energetic dogs.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 07, 2026

Lin was very pleasant to deal with and responded promptly to all messages. My dog was very well looked after after and Lin posted photos throughout her stay with her. Very satisfied.

Boarding • Sep 07, 2026

Bulma had the loveliest time with Lin and Louis! We had a little pup pre-meet in the park and it's safe to say that Bulma made a new best friend in Louis - I think she was sad to leave when we picked her up! Lin was so kind and accommodating, especially because we had completely forgotten Bulma's food and bowls when we dropped her off 🤦🏻‍♀️. Lin sent us some adorable picture updates of Bulma throughout her stay which was so lovely to receive. We would be very very happy to have Lin care for Bulma again! Thank you, Lin and Louis!

Lin was amazing with my dog chocho. She’s really gentle and patient, and you can tell straight away she genuinely loves dogs. My dog warmed to her quickly and was so comfortable with her, she clearly adored Lin by the end of the stay. Lin has a lovely house with a lovely garden. I felt totally at ease leaving my dog with her and I’d 100% book Lin again :)

Schedule

Your dog, along with mine, will share the same schedule: Two big walks a day (to a park) during noon and evening time. Two - four potty breaks in the back garden, especially first thing in the morning and one before bed. During holidays (and weekend), I usually take the dog(s) for a bigger walk in the shotover or the university park, depending on the weather.

Safety, trust & environment

My garden is fenced. In fact it is cat proofed so not even a jumper like a cat can get out. Dogs sleep downstairs with ample amount of space.
