I usually take the dog out for a walk for an hour before work and then another hour between 4-6pm. I work from home in an open plan space so they can go between the house and garden all day as they please. I like to move around a lot so can play with them at intervals between working. At weekends I do longer dog walks and meet with friends with dogs too if they’re ok with other dogs. In the evenings we have cuddles on the sofa and they sleep in the kitchen with space or often on the sofa!

Information Michelle S. would like to know about your pet

How they get on with other dogs , do they have good recall. Do they need to be kept on a lead, eating habits, are they allowed treats? are they allowed on furniture or upstairs, I want to mirror your rules at home.

A typical day

Typical day will be a morning walk first thing , breakfast and then regular play intervals. If they’re a dog that needs a lot of exercise I can also do a lunchtime walk. Lots of affection and attention throughout the day as required with stroking and reassurance to make them feel safe and loved

Pet care experience

I trained my dog as a puppy to gold level obedience and also he won lots of agility rosettes. I’ve looked after dogs of all ages and with a big garden dogs love running around and having so much space. Surrounded by beach and country walks, it’s always a different walk to stimulate the dog with new sights, sounds and smells.

Thank you so much for looking after our Ron. We couldn’t be more reassured and happy that he was not just looked after was cared and had fun with. We got lots of photos and updates. He came home very happy and contented. We will definitely we reusing in the future! Thank you again Michelle x

Trevor is a typical terrier with a big attitude and strong opinions and as a result can be a bit tricky so I’m very careful about who I leave him with. Michelle followed my guidance to the letter, stuck to his routines and it sounds like they both had a wonderful time as a result. She provided daily updates dates with photos. I wouldn’t hesitate to book boarding for Trevor with Michelle again, she genuinely cares and wants to do the best for your dog.

Gaston had a lovely day with Michelle. She is an excellent communicator and I left Gaston feeling confident he was going to be happy. A - Star Dog Aunty

Michelle looked after my 3 year old fur baby Hendrix for a week whilst I was away earlier this year and I couldn't recommend her more. She sent regular updates and even prescribed treatment for some sores he'd developed a few days before we went away which was a worry for us. He had the best time with Michelle, a new walk every day with lots of new sniffs and smells. She's so well placed for walks in the woods, across fields as well as beach trips, so he really was having the time of his life. When we picked Hendrix back up he was reluctant to leave and so Michelle is now my go to for Hendrix if we're away.
