Information Mike B. would like to know about your pet

Please let us me know ahead of time if your dog needs any special considerations. I can let you know ASAP if we'll be able to cater for those. We can't accept any dogs that continually bark - sorry :/

A typical day

Sometimes I'm up early and I'll take the dogs for a run. If one of them isn't up for that - I'll take them for a stroll around our local playing fields and park. On weekends or the longer evenings we'll go on a nice long walk from our house to the sea and back :)

Location

Hythe, United Kingdom

Mike B.'s Neighborhood

Active couple who love medium-large dogs

Pet care experience

Dog-loving family home with a safe enclosed garden. Next to a park, 2mins from a forest walk, 30mins walk from the beach. We absolutely love dogs and are looking to fill our home with wagging tails again after recently losing our beloved German Shorthaired Pointer. We miss the joy and companionship dogs bring, and we’d love to welcome your dog into our home. **Why We Might Be a Great Fit:** - **Loving Home:** Your dog will be treated like part of our family, with plenty of cuddles and attention. Our kids are older (16 and above) so very unlikely to be annoying to your pooch! - **Active Lifestyle:** We love to walk and run, and we’d be thrilled to a companion join us on our adventures. - **Personal Touch:** We’re all about making sure your dog feels comfortable and happy, sticking to their usual routines and preferences. - **Stay Connected:** We can send you photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is having a great time. We know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, and we’d be happy to meet your doggy and say hello… if only for another doggy-fix!

Mike and Sara were absolutely fantastic looking after Orla. Orla was living her best life on her holiday and Mike sent photos to prove that she was, plus updates. I would totally recommend them and 100% would love Orla to stay with them again. Thank you 😊

Mike and his family were brilliant, whilst they had Shadow they sent messages as to how he was settling in, photos and videos of what he was up to, Mike came across as very relaxed which helped Shadow fit in at no point were we worried that he would not be 100% looked after. If dates and availability were suitable we would not hesitate to use Mike again in the future. Again brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!

Mike and Sarah are wonderful and wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of Molly! We had a meet and greet and we trusted Molly to let’s us know how she fit in and after zoomies round their garden and a good investigation she was right at home!! She loved her stay and had plenty of updates from Mike which is always reassuring. 100% recommend to anyone who may need a trustworthy sitter.
