Highlights
Pet care experience
All good dogs welcomed with love and belly rubs!
We have looked after dogs (as well as cats, rabbits, gerbils, fish and chickens) since we were children. This has included raising excitable puppies, caring for elderly dogs with medical needs, and everything in between. We regularly look after dogs for our friends and family, so have experience of looking after all kinds of dogs with all kinds of personalities. A day with us would include playing in our dog-safe garden, walks in the local park, naps, and lots of attention.

Ratings and reviews
Olivia is lovely and I think Aubrey had a great time! He was in a very jolly mood when we picked him up :)
I would absolutely book Olivia again. She met up with me the day before to get to know Tobi and his needs. Tobi also got acquainted with her dog too. Whilst Tobi stayed with Olivia, she sent me regular updates with photos and videos. She also stuck to his schedule and needs. Tobi seemed very comfortable when I went to pick him up too! Thanks so much Olivia for taking care of Tobi for me - at short notice too! :)
Styx had a fantastic time with Olivia and her partner (and little Babka!). I got plenty of updates about what she was up to, and am really confident that my care instructions were followed and that Styx had a safe, comfortable and fun time during her week away. Highly recommended and I'd definitely ask Olivia again next time I need dogsitting.
Olivia is very well-placed to be a pet caregiver. She has dutifully raised cats and dogs throughout her life and has an extremely kind, patient and forgiving personality. She currently owns a miniature dachshund from puppy and lives in a safe home (with an enclosed garden). Her professional life allows the flexibility to ensure any pets she works with have the time they deserve.
Would highly recommend Olivia! She’s looked after our Labrador on multiple occasions, we feel very comfortable leaving our beloved pet in her very capable hands.

We have a dog friendly garden and lots of nap spots inside our flat. Your dog would be welcomed by our miniature dachshund, Babka, who is particularly excited to make new friends.

A typical day
We go for big walks in the park everyday, with lots of opportunities for your dog to run around and for their favourite games. At home, there is space for your dog to play, with supervision.
