Safety, trust & environment

Because I share my home with Odin, we strictly accept dogs who are friendly and comfortable with other dogs. Our home is rarely empty. I work a brief shift Monday to Friday from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. However, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, someone is always at home, ensuring your dog is never left alone during those times. On Mondays and Thursdays, dogs should be comfortable being left for a maximum of 3 hours in the evening alongside Odin. We live in a flat ideally located directly across the road from Bournemouth Gardens, meaning fantastic, green, and expansive walks are right on our doorstep!

Bournemouth Dog Care by Lab Owner

Pet care experience

As a Rover client myself since 2021, I know exactly what it takes to provide peace of mind when you trust someone with your four-legged family member. Having used drop-ins, daycare, walks, and boarding from the owner's side, I know how reassuring a quick photo update is, how vital it is to stick to a precise feeding schedule, and how important transparency is. I treat your dog’s routine as absolute law and deliver the exact high standard of care that I expect for my own dog, Odin. Raising my own 5-year-old Black Labrador through the high-energy puppy stages means I am well-versed in positive reinforcement, maintaining house-training schedules, managing teething, and ensuring safe, controlled socialization. Equally, I understand that older dogs have vastly different needs. Whether it's managing a slower pace on our walks, administering oral medications, recognizing signs of joint discomfort, or simply ensuring they have a quiet, comfortable space to rest, senior dogs receive gentle, attentive care here. I am entirely comfortable handling larger, high-energy breeds, managing leash pulling, and ensuring that play sessions remain safe, balanced, and fun.

If you want your dog to have a fun, active, and safe stay, Norbert is the perfect person. He’s fantastic with larger, energetic breeds and knows exactly how to keep dogs engaged, well-exercised, and happy. He is kind, highly responsible, and incredibly attentive to a dog's individual needs. Your pet will be in the absolute best hands with him! We’ve just joined him on one of his evening walks recently with Odin and were surprised how well thought and behaved Odin was and how attentive Norbert was

I highly recommend Norbert for any pet care needs. He is one of the most reliable and organized people I know, (first hand as I lived with him) He’s attentive, strictly follows routines, and treats every animal with the highest level of respect. No matter sun or rain, cold or heat early or late he always followed his dogs routine. I do not have a pet here locally but if I did I’d definitely leave him with Norbert and Odin without a second thought

Norbert is an absolute natural with dogs. I’ve seen firsthand how incredibly well-loved and structured life is for his own Labrador, Odin. He is patient, incredibly reliable, and truly understands dog behavior. Living right by the park, he has the perfect setup for active, happy pups. I would trust him with my own pets without a single hesitation!
