Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Richard looked after our little Arnold for a week and he was absolutely fantastic!! Arnold was walked and care for and properly loved every minute with Richard!! I would recommend him to anyone he is truly a fantastic individual with a kind heart and a passion for dogs.
I’ve known Richard and Jo for years, and I can say without hesitation that they’re exactly the kind of people you want caring for your pets. They have a natural, calm, intuitive way with animals that you simply can’t teach. Their own dog, Bojack, is the perfect example — a happy, friendly, well‑behaved puppy who clearly thrives under their care. It shows how responsible and attentive they are, and how good the conditions they create truly are. As a pet sitter myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. With them, that trust is genuinely safe. They’re reliable, kind, and absolutely worth recommending.

Schedule
We walk our dogs early in the morning before breakfast and after work, we work from home so can check on them regularly. Typically leave the back door open so the dogs can mooch in and out at their leisure. Gardens safe and full of toys for the little ones to enjoy.
