Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible, friendly and experienced dog carer
I am a reliable, caring dog person with personal experience raising my own dog from a puppy to her very old age. Friends always come to me when they need their dogs looked after, big or small, and I can be active in walkies or active in cuddling - whichever suits your dog best. Living by the sea allows for great exercise for your special pet, and if they're tired I have a car that means I can get them to a location and off or on the lead to stretch their legs and get home safely. I also live by a large field for those easy to access grassy walks. I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday), can be available on weekends, and generally have availability for overnight boarding. Pets are welcome on furniture in our house, unless you would like me to enforce any rules - which of course I can! There's a fenced garden for safe outdoor play as well. Please don't hesitate to get in touch about care for your dog - whatever size, age or personality. If you have several dogs, I have experience with allowing three dogs to board at one time so the options are certainly open. I look forward to hearing from you :)

Ratings and reviews
Olly our cocker spaniel has had the best time with Maeve so many thanks for looking after him this weekend! Will definitely be using you again 💕. He has been very well looked after and made to feel like one of the family which is exactly what we wanted for him. Definitely recommend
Roxy had the best time. Lots of photos and updates and Roxy’s needs were catered for thoroughly. She came absolutely zonked from having plenty of exercise and fun. Will 100% be booking again.
Maeve and Gary cared for my little dog Pip so well. I was sent photos and videos daily of her time spent with them and I could tell that Pip was having the best time and was so happy to be with them! Pip settled with them instantly and I could see they genuinely cared for her. I would recommend without hesitation. Thank you both
Such lovely people! They were willing to cater to all of Novas needs and sent lots of pictures and updates! Nova had the best time, went on lots of walks and adventures and has done nothing but sleep since she got home! The house has never been so quiet! Definitely recommend!
Used maeve for the very 1st time for my staffy Rueben, absolutely brilliant pet sitter I felt very comfortable leaving Rueben with maeve we got updates throughout the 2 days Rueben was there. Maeve husband was really good with Rueben they enjoy snuggles on sofa. So thankyou so much both of yous. I will definitely be using them again. I would definitely highly recommend them.
Maeve and Gary were fantastic with our dog George. Kept in regular contact with pictures and letting us know what he'd been up to. Really happy, they were great.

Schedule
I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday) with minimal meetings so can be active during the day with walks and care. For boarding, I can do a whole week if your dog would be happy being left to roam the house while I’m out. Please just ask. I am generally available on weekends, and have availability for overnight boarding.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden to keep your pets safe, and quite a spacious interior for them to be comfortable when in the house. I do allow pets on the furniture but if you would like to keep your own rules for that I can absolutely honour and enforce those.
A typical day
I can plan my day around the needs of your dog, if they need a long walk or several short walks, and can either play in the garden, the nearby field, or beautiful Longsands Beach!
