Pet care experience

I have been around dogs all my life, owned them and cared for other peoples. I have walked and boarded dogs from 'Borrow my Doggy' for the last 5 year but am now retired so more time to indulge in my favourite pastime. I will be led by your instruction re aspects of care to ensure continuity as believe your dog needs that. I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe and get exercise and cuddles

Thank you so much for looking after our little Teddy. He had such a lovely stay and was clearly very well cared for. He enjoyed lots of walks, cuddles, and attention, and it was so reassuring to know he was in such good hands. We really appreciated it and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you.

Margaret looked after Pippa for the day with a view to us booking more dates for later in the year. Pippa had a great time and seemed very happy and settled. Margaret was really accommodating and kept us updated with photos and videos even though Pippa was only there for the day. We really appreciated those! Safe to say we’ve booked our next dates in!!

Fudge had a great time with Margaret, and settled well considering it was her first visit. Margaret is a natural with dogs and Fudge will definitely be visiting again soon. I would recommend anyone to let their dog stay. Thank you!

Margaret looked after our cockapoo for 3 days and gave us regular updates with pictures. She was great and we would definitely recommend her.
