Huge animal lover & 12 years of animal experience!

Pet care experience

Every booking will get a digital drawing of their dog! 🐶 I’ve trained and looked after mainly dog for 12 years from Chihuahua X Pappilons, Cockerpoos, Jack Russell X Border Terrier and currently my Golden Retriever! Each of these dogs I’ve had from a puppy and have trained them and brought them up alongside college and full time work. I’ve also looked after dogs of an older age with issues such as blindness, arthritis and incontinence which I grew knowledgeable on through vet visits and personal research.

Tom was great with Lenny. Very accommodating especially as we booked last minute. Tom asked questions beforehand to make sure that he was prepared to care for Lenny. Tom sent us pictures and a video of how Lenny’s day was which offered reassurance that Lenny was in good hands. We will definitely use Tom again :)

There aren't enough stars for Luke! He is truly the most phenomenally caring and trustworthy sitter we've ever had for Ziggy (our very bouncy, 2.5yr Golden Retriever). Luke took Ziggy under his wings for a week at his beautiful home which is clean, tidy & cosy; he went ABOVE & BEYOND to ensure our boy was safe, well stimulated, cleaned, loved & entertained with his own Golden Retriever, Cody. (who is SUCH a lovely natured & playful GR). My mother in law popped by to say hello mid week and she absolutely loved Luke & his GF too - they were so accommodating & clearly genuinely lovely, kind people. Daily photos & videos were in full swing which I found very reassuring that our GR was really happy & in such good hands - it's honestly a shame we had to bring him home as he was clearly having THE BEST time with Luke, his GF & Cody. I joked about our dog having a GR retreat for a week and he certainly did. He occupied him with snuffle mats, licky mats, plenty of playful & even bough him a very cute golden retriever teddy which melted our hearts when we saw our boy with it when he returned. Luke not only took him on what looked to be the most wonderful woodland walks but he also managed to get Ziggy in his bathtub - which we have never been able to achieve! Mega chuffed with that! He cleaned him everyday after the muddiest of walks and Ziggy looked so comfortable and happy in his care as I could see huge smiles on Ziggys face in every single photo. The photos he sent were also brilliant, Luke captured the most intimate & playful moments of our dogs together, I can imagine Luke raking in the cash as a candid dog photographer. He really did everything and more that I could have wished for to ensure Ziggy was happy & healthy and for that, I am so grateful. To commend Luke further - he gave us a digital and hard copy of an illustration of Ziggy which is flipping fantastic, another string to add to his bow. Really, if you're looking at booking, do it immediately because I don't think there is anyone better suited. We 100% trust Luke & his GF & will absolutely use them again in the future and know Ziggy will lose his mind when he sees them all again :D Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! XXX!

Luke was really helpful and easy to deal with. Helped us out at very short notice and Duke was very happy when I got home.

Please update me on any special requirements your pets may need so I am able to prepare for them as best I can. I’m happy with all types of breeds and all sizes!

A typical day

I love exercising my dog in many different ways from walks in different locations to keep smells and playtime fresh. I do sniffaris for treats in long grass/around the house so he has to sniff out the hidden treats along side things like licky mats, snuffle mats and puzzles to keep his brain constantly engaged.
