Pet care experience
Looking for a kahu?
What on earth is a kahu I hear you ask - a kahu is a Hawaiian word for someone who acts as a guardian and protector of precious things, including furry souls. I have 35 years of experience caring for and loving all kinds of furry friends (including some unexpected rescues) dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, a squirrel, a cockerel, cockatiel and budgies and horses. Some of them all at once!

One very happy, tired little dog. Thank you!
Great care, Nyx had a lovely time, thank you.
Our dogs absolutely love going to Lorraine. Their tails start wagging at the very mention of ‘going to see Lorraine, Libby and Blue’ 😊 Lorraine does an amazing job and loves our dogs like her own - thank you Lorraine!

Schedule
I work from home mostly, (set office day once a week), and so I have the capacity and time to take care of other furry friends alongside Blue and Libs (my two rescues adopted as puppies, now almost 8 and 5 years old).

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and a home-from-home approach to caring for guests. Blue and Libs are both spayed and vaccinated and are used to meeting new friends, although an intro beforehand is always a good plan to make sure everyone is happy. Unfortunately, we can't help with cats as Blue and Libby are unsure how they feel about feline friends and it's important that everyone feels safe here.

A typical day
There are lots of great walks around in the area within a few minutes of the house. Typically, I walk Blue, Libby and any other friends for an hour early morning, then do a shorter walk later in the day, avoiding times when it may be too hot for paws. I have a good-sized garden too for games and playtime.
