Looking for dog cuddles in Peterborough!
Pet care experience
I had a golden retriever growing up so I shared walking and feeding duties with my other family members. Now I live independently, I often have my friends and family members’ dogs stay in my home or I go to their house to dogsit so I have experience with a variety of dogs and their different characters. I also have my own pets - an indoor rabbit, a bearded dragon, a snake and a gecko. I often have my mum’s tortoise staying as well while she’s on holiday! I worked in a pet shop for three years where I completed training on dog nutrition and behaviour, and spoke with a wide range of customers about their pets’ quirks. I do have a house rabbit, he is kept in one of the bedrooms upstairs so the dog will be able to smell him but won’t have access to him.
Reviews
Marrakesh had her fifth (or sixth?) stay with Lucy this past week and she had a great stay as always.
Lucy has been brilliant! Starting from communication, flexibility in terms of dates, through day care to overnight stay. Our pooch seems to be very happy and gets excited every time when we pull up to Lucy's house. She is always very polite and friendly. We are definitely going to be booking more dates with Lucy soon ☺️
Our Retriever, Marrakesh, just finished her third stay with Lucy and she had a wonderful time again. She gets lots of good attention from Lucy. Lucy also really helped us out by doing a pickup the night before our trip.
Very happy with Lucy. Perfect communication, we had messages every day. My dog seems to be over the moon, she definitely had lovely time. We use Lucy again with no doubt. Thank you.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a medium sized garden with secure 6-foot fencing. I’m happy to crate the dog/s if you can provide their crate, but otherwise they will be free to roam the house.
Home
Information Lucy D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has a high prey drive as I do have a rabbit living indoors. The rabbit is kept in one room upstairs but if the dog can smell the rabbit and not see him, it could be too stressful for the dog. I have quite a high sofa as well so if your dog has mobility issues do let me know so I can help them on/off.
A typical day
There is a dog park just a 2 minute walk from my house so if your dog wants to go and play I’d be happy to take them. Or there is a quiet woodland area along the railway tracks where I enjoy walking and seems to be a bit hit with dogs too! I love to play with dogs so they’ll get lots of cuddles and play time, but of course I understand some dogs like their space and older dogs might not want to play as much.
