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).

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

On weekdays, Marco works from home, so your dog will have company throughout the day, with plenty of garden breaks and attention. Natalie heads out to the office, but lets them out before and after work for extra playtime. 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.

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!

Natalie and Marco were fantastic looking after Groot. He came back happy and well cared for. He had lots of walks and even on the last night, when Groot was feeling a little off, Marco slept near him to help him settle. Thank you so much for looking after him!
