Highlights
Pet care experience
Staffy owning dog lovers!
My partner Alex and I have both had dogs since we were young. We got our own Staffy, Leeloo, 2 years ago and so understand the importance of routine, boundaries, training and unconditional love for your pet. Leeloo is very well socialised and loves being around other dogs. She currently isn’t spayed so we unfortunately can’t take the risk on un-neutered males. However we’re really happy to take females in heat and un-neutered as we understand how difficult it can be to find a sitter who doesn’t mind this. All three of us are very active and so we love walks through the forest just as much as cuddles on the couch. We also have a garden so your pup has some space to play and toilet whenever they need to. We’re happy to administer medication and also deal with dogs who are a little anxious (provided they’re not aggressive with other dogs).

Ratings and reviews
My 14 yrs old JRT Steve loved his stay with Michelle, Alex and LeeLou. Such lovely calm people, and the most heavenly meadow doggy walks. He is still snoozing!! Diolch!!
Michelle and Alex were so welcoming to our 6 month old puppy Meg. They met us a few weeks before and we met their lovely dog Leeloo, and went to their house. I had no reservations leaving Meg with them. They were very accommodating - Meg is a puppy so still learning the ropes and learning commands. I highly recommend Alex and Michelle and hope they are available next time I want a safe, secure, friendly space to leave my puppy.
Michelle and Alex are lovely! They took great care of our male staffy for the day and he came home a tired and happy dog! He was taken for a couple of beach walks throughout the day. Michelle and Alex were quick with comms and sent photos and a video of their dog and ours playing together. If only they lived closer to us!!!
I went for a walk with Michelle and their dog a couple of days before plus going to their home Baxter was very much a happy dog staying with them and they sent me updates as it was the first time I had left him over night They were fantastic and Baxter was a very happy boy I really hope that they will have him again for short stays. Thank you Michelle and Alex
Michelle and Alex were wonderful with my 3yr old who hadn't experienced anything like this before. I felt comfortable leaving her with them for the morning. When I picked her up she was very relaxed and looked as though she had thoroughly enjoyed herself. Would definitely recommend them and would use again if in the area!
Would highly recommend Alex and Michelle. Communication was fantastic. They went above and beyond with our dog Moli. Thank you so much for looking after her while we were away. Would definitely book again ☺️.

Schedule
We’re musicians, so our schedule is incredibly flexible. We work from our own studio the majority of the time, and we very much welcome dogs to the studios with us. We sometimes have gigs in the evening, but it’s best to just drop us a message to ask about availability as it’s not fixed or regular.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a little cottage in the beautiful Welsh countryside. We sit on around 6 acres of land, so lots of space for doggy’s to play. However, we also have an enclosed cottage garden, so they won’t be getting lost. We do have sheep in the neighbouring fields, but we are fenced in. So, do let us know if your doggy is a bit of an escape artists and we will make the correct arrangements for them. We allow pets on the furniture, but only on our command. We’re happy to let your pet sleep either in the room with us, or in a separate room to Leeloo if you think they will struggle to settle. As we say Leeloo is very well socialised, and likes to play, however we will always promote some alone time for both dogs so they can get some rest.
Pets
A typical day
We often go for a morning walk before starting work, then break at mid day often for another short walk or just for some playtime depending on the dog. Evening we will spend cuddled up in the living room or socialising with friends, again depending on the dog and how confident they are around others.
