Pet care experience

25 years experience as a professional home boarder

I have a lifetime of dog care experience. I have been brought up with various different breeds, including Jack Russel Terrier’s, Boarder Terriers and Golden Retrievers. The Schnauzer is my specialty and I have bred several litters and enjoy grooming them. I have been working as a dog groomer, home boarder and walker for more than 25 years. I recently moved my business from London to Stroud. Fortunately many of my fabulous dogs and their owners from London still come and board with me or come for grooming. (6 hour round trip) There are not many carers out there with my extensive experience. My priority is the welfare of your animals, I have never had a dog that is not enthusiastic to return to stay with us. Dogs are my passion and i love caring for them, they receive lots of love and individual attention, as if they were my own dogs. I love my job! I have had much success with nervous dogs that do not socialise with other dogs well. I will regularly update you with pictures/videos of your dog and information on how their day is going. Dogs are walked according to their needs once/twice a day. They have access to the garden most of the time when at home. I offer a collection and delivery service for an additional cost. We are fully insured for walking, boarding and grooming. I have completed a canine First Aid course. All dogs receive 24 hours a day care. they are never left alone. I also have lots of experience with elderly dogs or dogs that have special health care needs. Puppies and juvenile dogs do very well in a small pack situation. I have bred several litters of puppies myself. We have 2 very social dogs of our own. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies.

Doggy Day Care • Jan 27, 2026

First stay with Louise, who was very welcoming. He had a great day, a walk in the woods, company from other dogs and home comforts. Louise really understood Harry and we wouldn’t hesitate to leave Harry in her care again.

A second visit by Zebedee - clearly had a great time and came home a happy pug. I know he was being well looked after so a stress free long weekend away.

Louise was amazing from start to finish. We felt very at ease leaving Rolo with such a lovely trusted pair of hands.
