Pet care experience

Evie and I have always had family dogs. We have a 4 year old Beagle boy together and have gone through the puppy stage and came out with a well socialised dog. We have completed puppy training hoopers and beginners agility with Barney and really enjoy the companionship. Barney loves having other dogs to stay sharing his beds, toys and humans. We both work full time from home with flexibility to take breaks and do walks when needed. Barney has a walk when he wakes up and early evening. We have a semi detached 5 bed house with a medium sized patioed and decked garden which is secure. We forde park and decoy park are a short stroll away. Barney sleeps in his cage and isnt disturbed easily by other dogs at night wherever they may be. We have had a short break whilst we welcomed our first baby who is turning 2 soon so we feel ready to offer hosting again

Great sitter. Persevered with my nervous dog, took her on a pack walk and settled her in nicely. Gave us pup dates with pictures while we were away Will be using again.

Guilly had a great time staying with Matthew. We were sent regular photos and videos of her so we were reassured that she was ok. She made friends with their dog Barney. They even took her to a dog park so she could have a run around off lead. We will definitely book again!

I’m so grateful to Matt and his wife for making Lottie feel so welcome at their home. I received daily photos from Matt and Lottie was doing all the things she does at our home!! I will definitely be booking my dog in for another stay later in the year! Thank you Matt!!
