Information maxine t. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know how your dog is on and off the lead and with other dogs out and about (do they mind being approached etc). Sleeping and eating arrangements and anything else you think we should know.

A typical day

There is a huge amount of woodland near our house and lots of fields so plenty of exercise opportunity. We always use a tracker for extra peace of mind and it also counts steps so we would update you on their daily steps and activity. Previously we had a high energy dog so we know all the tricks to tire them out. We are used to all different breeds and sizes of dogs.

Friendly family and local walks

Pet care experience

We have both always had dogs, growing up I lived on lots of land and always had 4 dogs which I loved to train and walk. We live in an area with immediate access to lots of walks and woodland (short and long) and love to go on long walks in our spare time. We have lots of dogs who visit us part time and are treat like family.

Brilliant experience! Daisy definitely loved her stay and was well cared for. We had lots of updates and photos which was so reassuring. We will definitely use them again in the future, Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Maxine. She took our dog at short notice following a break down in his previous placement. Maxine was brilliant and helped sort the whole situation while we were overseas. She provided exceptional care for our dog with plenty of long walks and lots of updates, photos, videos. Made us feel totally at ease and Charlie had s great time there. Would definitely use again.

I couldn’t recommend them more highly. They kindly agreed to take Barney at very short notice because my other dog had come into season. I received regular updates throughout, which was so reassuring, and Barney was treated like one of their own. I honestly think he was sad to leave!
