Pet care experience

🐾 About Us Animals have always been a huge part of our lives, and caring for them has never felt like work. We actually met 14 years ago while working together at a boarding kennels and cattery, and we’ve been surrounded by animals ever since. Matthew’s Experience: Matthew has spent his entire working career as a military working dog handler, working with highly trained dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. He’s calm, confident, and experienced with everything from strong working breeds to sensitive, anxious dogs. His background means he understands structure, trust, patience, and how to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. Laura’s Experience: Laura spent many years working in kennels and catteries, caring for animals from all backgrounds — nervous rescues, energetic working breeds, elderly pets needing extra support, and shy animals who simply need time and reassurance. What We Offer: We’re confident with all personalities and comfortable administering medications when needed. We understand how important routines, feeding schedules, and one‑to‑one attention are while owners are away, and we always follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel settled. Our Home Our home is calm, loving, and relaxed — a place where pets can feel safe and part of the family. Whether your dog is playful, anxious, shy, elderly, full of energy, or happiest curled up for cuddles, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for like one of our own 🐾

Riley had an absolutely amazing time and was so well cared for. There was great communication which really put me at ease and I can’t thank these guys enough for his day spent with them !

Teddy had a great time with Matthew and his partner during his daycare session - they were communicative, flexible around our drop off/ pick up needs, and kept us up to date with how Teddy was getting on. Teddy loved all the fuss he got, and the big secure garden to cool off in during the warm weather!

We needed a sitter at short notice and Matthew and Laura were only too pleased to host Ruby. Their communication was excellent and provided us the reassurance we needed. On meeting Laura, it was clear she (and Matthew) had a lot of experience and Ruby immediately seemed at home. The actual visit could not have been better with regular updates and photos of Ruby sleeping and playing with Matthew. It was clear to us she was being well cared for and was happy. We have already booked again with Matthew and Laura and I'm sure Ruby will be excited to visit and make herself at home again. Thank you both

Laura and Matt took such great care of Zola during the 2 days she stayed with them. A few days before the boarding, we scheduled a meet and greet so they could get to know Zola’s daily routine and habits, and so Zola could become familiar with her surroundings. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura and Matt again. You can tell they genuinely love working with dogs and treat them with so much love, care, and attention. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girl 😊
