Availability
Dogs are already a big part of our lifestyle. We live in a home with a fully enclosed garden, plus woods and fields right behind us—perfect for walks and off-lead play (when safe and allowed). Natalie is a regular runner and happy to take high-energy pups along, while Marco loves slower strolls and plenty of playtime.

About Natalie B.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
In our home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They’ll have space to roam, plenty of attention, and lots of exercise. We keep to your pup’s normal schedule with feeding, walks, and routines so they feel comfortable and settled. In your home, we bring the same level of care and consistency, making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

Information Natalie B. would like to know about your pet
It really helps us to know: • How much exercise your dog typically needs (beyond garden playtime). • Whether they’re comfortable around other dogs (for walks or meet-ups). • If they have a particular feeding, walk, or bedtime routine. • Any mobility considerations—such as if they’re senior and may need help with steps or a ramp to the garden. • If your dog is crate trained, please bring their crate along so they have a familiar, safe space. • We don’t allow dogs upstairs overnight, so it’s important to know if your dog is happy sleeping downstairs. That said, we can make exceptions if required to help them settle.
A typical day
During the week, Natalie works from home one day, while on the other weekdays we're out at work. We normally accept bookings for long weekends, as that's when we're both home and can give dogs our full attention, with longer walks, extra adventures, plenty of playtime, and lots of one-on-one care On weekends, we have more flexibility—dogs can enjoy running around our fully enclosed garden, a trip to the nearby field, or even join Natalie on a run if they’re up for something more active. We love to keep things varied depending on each dog’s energy level. That could be long woodland walks, field runs, games of fetch in the garden, or a jog alongside Natalie. For pups who prefer a calmer pace, we’re just as happy with cuddles, gentle strolls, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

Your Dog’s Second Home with Natalie & Marco
Pet care experience
We’re a dog-loving duo who have both grown up surrounded by pups of all sizes—from German Shepherds and Collies to a Maremma Sheepdog. That means we’re confident and comfortable caring for everything from bouncy puppies to gentle giants. We regularly dog-sit our family Collie, plus friends’ Collie and Irish Wolfhound, so large, active breeds are no problem. With Marco working from home and Natalie based in the office, your dog will always have company and attention throughout the day. Whether your dog loves a cuddle on the sofa, an energetic run, or a long woodland adventure, we can adapt to their needs.
Reviews
Marco and Natalie were absolutely brilliant with Lulu. They sent lots of sweet photos and updates, which was really reassuring, and she clearly had a great time with them. She looked completely relaxed and happy throughout, and came back super chilled. Thank you both so much — I’d happily book with you again.
Ralph had a lovely one night stay with Natalie and Marco. They sent tonnes of pictures and updates while he was there. He had some lovely walks and lots of love and attention. We would definitely book to stay again!
Absolutely happy with Marco and Natalie, looked after my Simba very well. Went for walks and was active . Kept us up to date with pics and activities. Well done guys 🙏
Wixi loves staying with Natalie and Marco, they keep you updated with lots of pictures and messages. Will definitely use again.
