Experienced dog-owner to look after your pet

Pet care experience

I have loads of experience with dogs. Growing up, we had a much-loved labrador, and I spent several years fostering rescue dogs with my wife Cathy. We have primary school aged children who also have lots of dog experience. Most recntly, as a family we fostered and rehomed a beautiful staffy around the pandemic. We would love to provide a welcome and loving home if your dog needs looking after.

Our 5 year old GSD, Teddy recently stayed with Mat & his lovely family. We met them a couple of weeks beforehand and felt very reassured that Teddy would be well looked after in their care & he definitely was! The whole family looked after him like their own and we couldn’t have asked for a more caring, attentive family home for him. (Teddy is used to a busy family home with children around & it was really reassuring for us to know that he would be in a very similar environment, where he would feel more familiar.) Mat sent us regular updates & photos which really helped us feel reassured whilst we were away. Communication throughout has been brilliant. We know Teddy misses us a lot when we are away, hence it is hard for us to leave him with others, but having found Mat & his wonderful family we can go away feeling happy that Teddy will be in the best of care & with a lovely family who all look after him & treat him like part of their family! So happy we have found Mat & have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him! Teddy is already booked in to stay with him again later on in the year! Thank you all so much ☺️

Luther had a brilliant weekend away with Mat, Kathy and the family. Communication was perfect from start to finish and the photos were a nice touch. Thank you.

Couldn't ask for better care for our dog. A very friendly family home.

Mat and his family cared for Breagh overnight and kindly kept me updated with photos and messages to reassure me she was fine. We will definitely use Mat again

A typical day

I work from home but am always happy for an exuse to get out and stretch my legs - and going for a walk with a dog is always more fun... We're semi-rural so can easily get out into the fields. Between me and my wife your dog won't be short of willing dog-walkers througout the day. Alternatively, if your dog's happy to take it easy and just go outside into the yard when needed - no problem!
