Safety, trust & environment

We are very sensitive to each of the individual needs of the pets that we look after. Before sitting we will ask you about your pets likes and dislikes, routines and what their favourite toys are. We will keep to a feeding and walking schedule similar to your own so that there is not too much change for your pet. We enjoy playing games with the pets that we sit to keep them busy and stimulated. For dogs specifically, we will ask you about your dogs recall ability and are experienced at using a long lead if that is the safest option.

Information Lucy & Dominic B. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if your pet has any specific health / dietary requirements. We would also like to know about your dog's behaviours. For example: are they anxious; how are they with other dogs; how is their recall; how secure is your garden; what are their general likes/ dislikes; is there anything else that we should be made aware of. For cats we like to know: are they allowed outside; do they take medication; how do they get on with the other cats in the home / area; are there any health concerns; what are their general likes/ dislikes; is there any thing else we should be made aware of.

A typical day

We enjoy taking the dogs we sit on long walks, giving them lots of opportunity for stimulation through fun games and interaction. For cats that we sit, we enjoy playing games with them and curling up together on the sofa.

Pet care experience

Hello! Lucy and Dom here, we are experienced pet sitters that you can trust. With practise of handling a variety of dogs and cats, we are sensitive to each pets needs. We have been looking after dogs and cats for many years. This includes 7 months of recent back-to-back sits. For dogs, we provide highly quality, long walks full of fun, games, and interaction (at least two walks a day). We have a form to double check key infomation so that our care can be tailored. We are brilliantly able to adapt to your dogs needs, providing them lots of attention throughout the day and continuing with any training that you may be working on. If the pet leans on the anxious side, we trust our skillset. We sat for a cockerpoo for 5 weeks - she didn't want to be stroked for the first two days but that immediately changed on the third day. So it's clear: - BOARDING: We sadly cannot take on any large (25kg+) dogs. Some of our garden fences are 4ft and therefore our policies are to only take on small & medium sized dogs. - Within a typical week, we may pop out for up to 3 hours one evening (providing the pet can be left alone for 3+ hours). Otherwise, we are around. We only take one pet owner on at a time (up to two dogs from one owner). For cats, we make sure to give them lots of love care and attention. Playing games and curling up on the sofa together. We are sure that your pet will enjoy our company - with the two of us staying in their home or boarding in our home. We provide daily photo updates. We have 20 + references. Please be in touch for references or for a chat to see if we may be the sitter for you and your pet. Thank you, Lucy and Dominic

Lucy & Dom were really accommodating with our last minute weekend booking for our two dogs, both lovely, genuine and kind people with a clear love and care for animals! Rory and Toby loved their time and their walks and would definitely trust them both to watch our doggies again!

Majo enjoyed his time with Lucy and Dominic. They sent me photos of Majo out on a beautiful local wooded walk. They were thorough with their pre-stay assessment of Majo’s needs during his stay which gave me confidence Lucy and Dominic could adapt to his little foibles!!!! I am happy to have already booked Majo a second stay with them.

Barney had a wonderful time with Lucy and Dominic. He had several long walks and lots of attention and I picked up a happy, relaxed dog! Highly recommended.
