I've had dogs and loved them all my life. I have trained and cared for many dogs, most recently a collie cross to be a helper dog for a person that uses a wheelchair. My house is cozy and ideally set up for dogs, with a secure garden, utility room (with separate entrance for those muddy walks) and a large park & walks just across the road. I also have access to a secure field (10 minute drive away) for lots of free running & playing. You can expect the best care for your dog or any other animals that stay with me. I do not currently have a dog of my own but do have a hamster that is kept in a separate room so that neither the hamster or dog are stressed/over excited by one another. For first time dog stays I would like to meet beforehand to make sure your dog will be happy with me, this is of course free of charge. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your dogs into their new holiday home!
