Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, fun & loving dog care!
Myself and my partner, Kayleigh, both have extensive experience with dogs. I’ve had my own wee border collie since I was young, and was responsible for every aspect of her care, including puppy training and grooming. I have taken care of countless friends/neighbours dogs over the years, they have trusted me to feed, walk, play with and bathe their pets. As a teen I volunteered at the dogs trust as a dog walker so have experience walking a variety of dogs from different backgrounds with different needs.

Ratings and reviews
As always our wee man was absolutely delighted to see Kayleigh & had lots of cuddles! Thank you!
Kayleigh & Nicola are always so wonderful with our anxious rescue dog. He absolutely loves to see them & we know he is 100% in safe hands. Thank you!
Nicola is really friendly and Bailey had a great sleepover! Even had an hour and a half walk in the morning ready for pick up the following day.
Thank you so much, Millie loves staying with you. Love the photos too and thank you for being so flexible x

As always 5 stars! Nicola and Kayleigh are so kind and caring towards our nervous rescue dog, he is always so excited to see them, relaxed with them & it is so clear he has such a great time with them. Thank you!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced garden which the dogs can get out in anytime whether it is for play or for needing the toilet. Dogs are allowed on the couch for those all important doggy cuddles, if your dog is crate trained and you wish to use one I have experience in using crates. I have plenty of areas nearby for excellent walks, there is a lovely waterfront walk and several wooded areas/ fields. I have a car with a dog harness for adventuring further out or for dogs who are capable to do some hill walks. I have a pet free and child free home so my full attention would be given to my dog boarder!
A typical day
I like to keep the dogs stimulated, if they’re a keen walker I like to take them on long walks along the shore path where they can sniff away at a variety of smells! If they’re older or more laid back I tend to take them to the park for a gentle stroll or play with them in the house/garden.
