Let me know if your dog has any special requirements. I can't look after dogs with high behavioural needs, but if you have a senior dog who is very clingy I'm very used to that! To make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while they're with me, I’d love to know a few things before any booking: Do they have any medical needs, behavioural quirks, or special routines I should be aware of? What do they like and dislike? Any favourite toys or games? What are their feeding and toileting habits? Are they comfortable with other dogs, cats, children, or strangers? Do they know any commands or have a reliable recall? Are there any triggers I should watch out for (e.g. loud noises, postmen, other dogs)? Are there any dos or don’ts you'd like me to follow—whether it's house rules, training goals, or just things they love or hate? A short checklist of their typical daily routine would also be really helpful. I always like to meet dogs in advance so we can all feel confident and relaxed. For house sitting, I'll come to you, for daycare I prefer the dog comes to my house to make sure it's suitable.

There's a park at the top of the road near my house which we'll visit- it's a great walk and usually they'll have the chance to meet other dogs if they are friendly. I don't do off-lead walks unless we book a private field (which is great fun!). Dogs are allowed on the furniture so we can cuddle up. I can do daycare for 2-3 dogs from the same household. When I receive a booking, I mark myself as unavailable for other dogs, so it's ok to book only one space. If it's in your house you can show me your favourite walks. I can also do snuffle mats or other food stimulation toys. I can also do daytime/evening sits in your home without staying overnight- I know how important it is to have a night out while your dog stays in a familiar environment.
