Highlights
Pet care experience
A couple who treats your dog like ours :)
Me and my husband (Sam) have grown up with dogs for the majority of our lives and since 2021 have looked after dogs of our own. We first looked after a senior terrier mix until he was 17 years old and have also fostered a reactive medium/large sized rescue for up to 6 months before she was adopted. We love having dogs around. We now have a staffy whippet mix 2 year old who’s a friendly girl with people and dogs who enjoys running around and then sleeping the majority of the day. Working in healthcare means I get random days off and my husband works from home so your pet would always have people around. We are a non smoking, pet allowed on furniture home

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We own our house with a fenced garden. We live near a dog friendly park we often go to and also have mousehold at a short walk away. We allow pets on furniture and can work around most routines on what your pets needs
Pets
A typical day
We are used to taking our pup around the multiple parks we have nearby and letting her enjoy all the smells. Within the home we usually play with toys and do enrichment tasks such as lick mats, hiding treats in things and general trick training.
