Ratings and reviews
Maddie and Joe looked after our 10 year old rescue greyhound, first time he'd been away from home without us, they kept in touch , and we're very caring and helpful to make sure Buddy was ok. We would certainly recommend them . Thanks again.👍
Peaches loves going here! She’s well looked after and I feel safe leaving her. Really appreciate the last minute booking too ☺️
Our British bulldog Peggy had an amazing weekend stay with Madeline and Joe, they kept us sufficiently updated with pictures and messages and we felt confident she was in good hands! We highly recommend them for dog sitting, they took time to understand Peggy’s routine and care needs and provided the reassurance we needed to enable us to relax on our short break away. Thank you both!
Our puppy had a lovely time and came back extremely satisfied, and was very well looked after. Great communication and feel very comfortable at the idea of leaving her there again
Maggie enjoyed her day today with Madeleine, she was settled on her first stay and was taken for a good walk, we received great pictures of her and communication was fantastic, thank you again. X
Very anxious leaving our new puppy at home alone. Madeline was great, made us feel at ease, sat with our puppy and kept her very calm and happy. Would recommend ☺️

Schedule
Hey, we're Joe and Maddie! Maddie is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Manchester Metropolitan University, and Joe is a Physiotherapist. We both predominantly work from home and ensure at least 1 of us is home at all times when caring for pets in our home. We have a huge love of the outdoors and an appreciation for nature. We have grown up around animals our whole lives: dogs, cats, budgies, fish, chickens, you name it! We love going for long walks and just wholeheartedly enjoy being around pets. Reach out if you'd like to know anything else about us, we'd love to have a chat!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Growing up with animals has taught us the importance of maintaining a stable and comfortable environment for animals. We take pride in being responsible and trustworthy people who will ensure that both your house and pets are in safe hands. The joy of forming connections with new animal companions alongside helping pet owners have peace of mind is truly rewarding to us.
A typical day
We love taking dogs on long walks through the nearby woods and up on the Pennines, where there's always something new to sniff and explore. Back at home, we're always happy to play games and make sure every pet feels spoilt with love, attention and all the care they deserve.
