Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm, Loving Dog Care 🐾
My husband and I live in a detached house with our sweet Westie. We have a spacious, fully fenced private garden, lovely neighbours, and peaceful woods just a minute’s walk away — perfect for walks and little adventures any time of the day. I treat every dog like part of the family — safe, happy, and completely at home. I’ve got experience with puppy training and always take the time to help each dog settle in, relax, and enjoy their stay, whether it’s for a weekend or a longer holiday.

Ratings and reviews
Book Lin!! We love our dog so much and do not like having to leave her, but i cannot recommend Lin enough. Maple was so happy with her - you can tell when you pick them up if they are happy or not, we've used sitters in the past and Maple has come back sad. We had so many updates and photographs, Maple had lots of walks and if the weather was hot, Lin would walk her late at night. She was so well looked after - a home from home. We will definitely always use Lin now when we go away.
From the moment I dropped off the dogs, it was clear they were is safe and caring hands! We received regular updates and lots of lovely photos throughout their stay, which gave complete peace of mind! The dogs were very happy and well cared for and they were treated very well! Thanks so much for taking such good care of them and I wouldn't hesitate to book again and highly recommend you to anyone!
It was lovely to meet Lin and her husband and her own dog prior to Marnie staying. Lin was very receptive to messages and replied promptly, she asked specific questions about Marnie prior to the visit - so I knew she was keen to know her routine and how to best care of her. She sent lots of pictures and updates I could see she had lots of sniffy lovely walks and play in gorgeous surroundings. I would recommend Lin without reservation.
Lin and her partner were great looking after our Miniature Dachshund at the start of the month for 12 days! They updated us with lots of photos of what Bean was up to and made sure to check with us before offering her any food that we hadn’t provided. We would happily rebook, especially for longer periods! Thank you again x
Our 10 year old cockapoo had excellent care when he stayed with Lin and her husband for 16 nights during a heatwave. Lin gave him daily medication and successfully managed his daily ear spray with patience and kindness. Communication was great and I could see from the photos and videos that Oslo was happy and loved playing with their little dog, Cherry, and walking in the nearby woods. He had the best holiday and I would definitely recommend Lin to others looking for 5 star care.
Thank you Lin for taking superb care our little puppies Sherlock and Lily. They seemed to have settled in so well and you even convinced my fussy eater to eat a full meal 🙂. Also thank you for sharing photos throughout the day. Sherlock and Lily would love to come back.

Schedule
We have plenty of time to spend with the dogs throughout the day and usually walk my Westie three to four times daily — around 7–8 a.m. (30 minutes), 12–1 p.m. (20 minutes), 3–4 p.m. (20 minutes), and 7–8 p.m. (30 minutes), mostly in the nearby woods. On weekends, we also enjoy one or two longer walks to explore the area.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large, secure back garden and peaceful woods just a minute’s walk away — perfect for dogs to play and enjoy nature. It’s a calm and loving environment where every pet can feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. At home, I keep the space clean and pet-friendly, with separate areas for resting, eating, and playing.

A typical day
I love keeping dogs active and happy, both physically and mentally. We’ll enjoy fun walks through the nearby woods, explore new smells in the big park, and play interactive games in my spacious garden. I always make sure each dog feels relaxed, safe, and loved throughout the day.
