Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced family happy to host your pooch
Following the very sad passing of our dog earlier this year, I'm not quite ready to replace him but wanted to help others with any dog sitting needs as that was always difficult for me to find someone reliable! We had a 45kg Boxer dog (called Winston) so my family are used to big lovable dogs. Would be great to have some company as I'm all geared up for it before maybe finding a new companion. We have a good sized, enclosed garden, and right next to a load of nice parks and walks. Would be great to fill our Winston sized hole from time to time. If you need any more info please just ask

Thanks Richard and family for taking such good care of Chino whilst we were away. The weather was very hot, but you took longer walks in the morning. He seems to be very happy during his stay, so he looks forward to come back.
Stirling lived his best life with Richard and his family! I am super grateful that you were able to provide Stirling a home away from home whilst my family and I travelled. Excellent communication, great updates and Stirling seemed so happy to be with you. Since coming home I am certain he has a case of the post holiday blues - a definite sign of a great time. Thank you, again!
Richard has taken good care of Marley. He understood his needs, sent regular updates and Marley seemed to have a fun stay. I'm sure we will see you again soon! Many thanks
Thank you Richard and family for taking care of Oscar while we were away. He had a great stay and came home very happy 😀
Our Schnauzer had the best time staying with Richard and his family. Its such a relief to find such lovely people to look after our fur baby, which means we can go away without any worries and know he is being treated like one of the family.
Teddy was well looked after and we were given plenty of updates.

Schedule
I work from home so always keen to get out for a walk during the day. My daughters love playing with dogs so they will get a lot of attention after school and at weekends. We tend to do a family walk to one of the nice parks/commons near us at the weekend
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have had dogs for years so quite used to making the house dog friendly. I have a garden and quite large house which they are free to roam but typicaly, I put their bed in my office during the day so we both have some company
A typical day
I have 2 young daughters who love nothing more than playing with a dog in our garden, or taking them for a walk around the square we live in, or the park next door. I work from home so always keen to get out for a walk/trip into the village where we bump into many of our friends and neighbours who also have their own dogs. Its a sociable, safe environment for your dog
