Highlights
Pet care experience
Family-friendly, loving environment
Mia grew up in an animal-loving household with a border terrier, a border collie, black and white moggie, rabbits, fish & guinea pigs! She also owns a cat sitting business, providing home visits in Cheltenham. Marcus grew up with lots of pets in his wider family, and has always had a soft spot for dogs. He couldn’t wait to get his own. We are now very proud owners of our beautiful Labrador, Bonnie, and black & white moggie, Loki. We have been boarding dogs for many years and started on Rover in 2025, it’s lovely meeting so many different dogs!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Excellent hosts. Good communication and Rosie our young labrador was obviously very happy there
Marcus and Mia were such a lovely couple - I really appreciated the daily updates, and I know Luna had a wonderful time because she came back absolutely pooped! I was also very grateful for their flexibility on timings as we were travelling quite a distance and had traffic to consider, etc. Overall a great experience. 🐾
Marcus was a hero and a great communicator. Fig had a cracking time. 10/10 - would recommend 🕺
A good amount of pictures and updates, and Tywin came home all happy and tired out. Really nice people and happy to make Tywin comfortable away from home :) thanks!
This was our second time using Marcus and nothing but good things to say. It was evident my dog was treated like family while there. Communication was clear and frequent. Marcus was even very accommodating when our flight back home was 4 hours late. There is no doubt I will be using him in the future.
Our pup had a great time with Marcus and his family, and she is looking forward to her holiday with them in the summer! Thank you for looking after Ember 😊

Schedule
I work from home 2 days a week and my wife works part-time, so each day of the week one of us are home. We are available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. We are an active couple and your pups will get a range of walks including fields, woods, rivers (depending on the weather).
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced garden with grass and a friendly dog and cat to keep your dog(s) company. We also have a daughter under, but we are careful with her around all dogs, we do only accept dogs who are friendly with children. Our pets are our family and we will treat yours like our own. We allow our dogs on sofas, if they are allowed at home.

A typical day
Your dog will have our dog to play and chill with each day. We have lots of fields and hills by our house that we like to explore. We do 1x 30-60 minute walk per day either morning or evening (we don’t have a set schedule).
