Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced family home
While our house isn’t huge, we have a secure fenced garden and are very close to a lovely park, so dogs will still get lots of exercise and outdoor time. We know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and we’d treat your dog as one of our own — with love, patience, and plenty of attention.

Ratings and reviews
Bear had a wonderful stay with Michelle and her family. He was given all the love and attention a dog could dream of. From initial booking to photos during the stay and collection her communication was excellent. We would definitely rebook again. Thank you x
We’re do I begin? Honestly from the first message I sent Michelle, her, Paul & the girls have been amazing. Made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby in her capable hands. She listened to everything my dog needed from personal care, medication, etc. nothing was too much trouble for them. Got sent constant updates, photos& videos of her looking so happy in her new home. They have been fantastic & wouldn’t go to anybody else now. My only problem was when we picked Winnie up, Winnie looked so sad to leave & wanted to stay 🤣🤣when we got home we could tell she was missing them especially the girls & the fun they had with her, they gave her a little teddy which she has constantly walked around the house with for the last 2 days she will not part eith it. Thank u all so much for the best care I could ever have asked for with my baby Winnie xx
Lovely family! Michelle really went the extra mile in caring for my little Cookie! You can clearly tell my dog was very happy with them! Thanks for such wonderful care!
Michelle and Family were the perfect host for Stan. Communication prior to and during my holiday was 1st Class. When I dropped Stan off Michelle and Family made a fuss of Stan and helped him feel comfortable. I will definitely be using this lovely Family again Thank You
Michelle and her family were amazing with my Saffy & really looked after her during her 3 night stay and gave reassurance by sending pictures of her having a nice time

Schedule
We’re a loving family of four who genuinely miss having a dog in our home after sadly losing our beloved dog TJ last year at the age of 15½. TJ was part of our family from puppyhood through to his senior years, so we understand the patience, care, and attention dogs need at every stage of life — especially older dogs who may need extra support and gentleness. In his later years, TJ was blind and unsteady on his feet, so we became very experienced in creating a calm, safe, and comforting environment for him. Caring for him taught our daughters kindness, patience, and how important pets are as family members. Our cat Stanley absolutely adored TJ — they were best friends — and since TJ passed away, Stanley has definitely missed having a dog around the house. Both myself and my partner (Paul) work from home full time, meaning your dog will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of attention, company, cuddles, and toilet breaks throughout the day. We also have two caring daughters aged 10 and 8 who love animals and enjoy helping with walks, playtime, and giving lots of affection.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced back garden that is accessible throughout the day and also live close to Victoria Park which is perfect for walking dogs! For dogs that don't mind car rides, we love taking trips to the beach and will make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise. We will always follow your routine for feeding.
