Highlights
Pet care experience
Mans Best Friend :)
I’ve spent many years caring for all kinds of animals and have always had dogs in my life. Now I have my own two boys, Tomas and Archie, who are well behaved, friendly, and a joy to be around. As an early riser working from home, I make sure they enjoy a good morning walk, another in the evening, and plenty of breaks and attention throughout the day. I love creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment for pets in my care.

Ratings and reviews
Ricky looked after my 5 year old dog for 5 days. I was a bit anxious but Ricky did everything to put my mind and rest and prepare Saffy for her stay. He is so calm around dogs and his dogs are very calm and happy. I can tell Saffy had a great time and was settled, as she has returned home happy and relaxed. I couldn’t recommend Ricky more highly, to keep your pet happy and keep you happy too.
Excellent friendly service from Ricky Happy doggie
Ricky was very flexible and accommodating. Pepper hasn’t stayed with anyone he doesn’t know before so I wasn’t sure how it would go. Ricky wasn’t phased and Pepper ended up having a lovely time. His two gorgeous dogs really helped to make Pepper feel at home.
My two dogs had a lovely time boarding with Ricky and his two dogs. We had through introductions involving both an on lead park walk and an off lead wood walk so we were confident all the dogs would get along and they did! Highly recommend his services.
Our dog, Neo, had a great stay with Ricky and his 2 dogs. Very easy to deal with and his 2 dogs are the friendliest. Recommended. Thank You
Ricky and gang looked after Emmy (small blue Staffy) this week. Ricky was great with communication and both his dogs were great with our’s. Emmy likes to play and can also be very chilled and Ricky’s dogs were perfect energy and also not too much as it was a new environment for our’s. We were wanting someone that had other dogs so our’s had some company when we were away and they got on like a house on fire. Emmy was sad to leave so looking forward to the next booking / hangout time. Massive thanks you to Ricky and the gang.

Schedule
I work full time from home, four days a week, with Wednesdays off and weekends free. I enjoy taking regular walks with my dogs, whether it’s along the beach or through the local woods, giving them plenty of fresh air and exercise.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My boys are on a raw food diet and are well-trained, friendly, and easy going. They get along well with other dogs, cats, and children, making for a calm and happy environment. I’m also happy to care for your pet in a crate if needed or preferred, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after.

A typical day
I’m an early riser, starting the day with a long 45–60 minute walk, with regular breaks throughout the day. In the evening, the dogs enjoy another long walk. On my days off, they typically get two to three walks, depending on the weather, making sure they stay happy, active, and well exercised.
