Information Matilda Z. would like to know about your pet

I am currently not able to take reactive dogs, as I have doggy day care clients most days. If you need your dog to be the sole dog in the home, I am afraid I may not be the best carer at this time.

A typical day

I want to cater each day to each individual pet. For high energy pets I would take them on a big hike or be happy to spend a long time with them in the park throwing a ball! For low energy pets, an easy day at the local dog parks or at our local coffee shops would allow them to get out of the house and seeing and smelling new things!

Location

I have had dogs since I was very young, and have frequently had boarders and doggy day care clients. No matter the age or breed of dog, I can promise love an affection will be in abundance. Your pet will be a member of our family during their stay.

Matilda and their partner were so friendly and lovely to deal with, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout. Birdy was so settled with them. They took really great care of her and it was reassuring knowing she was in such good hands. I’d definitely recommend Matilda and will happily book again!

I would 100% book with Matilda again if I was back in Edinburgh. She sent me lots of pupdates, was really friendly and great communication. She made it easy to trust that your dog would be safe and well loved whilst you are away :).

Custard was very well looked after, I could tell from the photos and pupdates while I was on holiday that he was relaxed and treated like one of the family while you looked after him. Would happy book again in future and highly recommend. Thank you so much!
