We were very satisfied with the lovely service provided by Melanie whilst looking after our pooch Otis. We met up before our holidays and she took to Otis straight away and him to her. She looked after him for 8 nights and I think it was almost home from home for him. Melanie provided us with updates and photos which really put our minds at ease. We would certainly use Melanie again without a doubt. Thank you very much Melanie

I was super anxious as we have bever had to use dog care before but melanie was really understanding nad had excellent communication throughout. To ease my worries we met for a walk before hand and our dog loved her straight away. She asked lots of questions about his care and routines so she could replicate that for him at her house. He had a great holiday! Lots of photos were shared of him chilling or out on adventures. He was so well cared for and loved.

Schedule

I work four days during the week however that time is split between the office and working from home. On the days when I am in the office I have a brilliant dog walker that I use their service is called Petslovecuddles - I have used them for over 4 years for my own dog and other dogs I have looked after. They can go on a group walk in the middle of the day with other dogs off lead for £10 per walk

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced garden that they can go for a little run around or to the toilet and I live opposite lovely semi rural countryside with lots of big fields, this is where I would walk your dog and they can be off lead safely (if this is something you are happy with). I walk them morning and evening and if it’s on an office day they would also get walked in the middle of the day by the dog walker. They would be left for four hours max at a time on work days. I am happy for snuggles on the sofa and they can sleep upstairs either on the landing in their own bed (with my bedroom door open) or if they want to sleep on my bed they can😊

A typical day

I will take them for lots of walks and fields to play fetch in the area where I live, I also go to the beach a lot so if they like the beach then I can take them there with me for a good run around
