Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Boarding, Walking & Visits
I’ve looked after dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities, including puppies and older dogs. I’ve learnt that every dog is different, and experience is about understanding their behaviour, giving them the right amount of space and attention, and making sure they’re comfortable in the home.

Ratings and reviews
Excellent care was taken with my dog Lola. Lots of pictures and videos. Very good household with a lovely dog of their own and 3 teenage children for my Shih Tzu to boss about, she puts herself very high up in any pecking order. All tolerated with good humour.

Harvey had the best time! Sam kept us updated all day with photos and notes, so we never worried once. Harvey came home happy and clearly well cared for. You can tell he really love dogs. Booking again for sure, highly recommend!

Sam and family were wonderful. Great care and great comms! Their home is a lovely, safe space, perfectly suited to dogs of any temperament. Teddy had a really lovely time: she was walked, fed, entertained and she made herself at home very quickly! That’s all down to Sam and I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook in the future!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Sam was really nice, attentive, and went above and beyond taking care of Cherry, sending updates throughout the whole day so we never had to wonder how she was doing. He was so patient and sweet with her, and it really showed how much he cared. Highly recommend!

San and his family were great from initial contact to picking up Phoenix. We met before Phoenix boarded to ensure that he would get on with Sams dog which he did and also it was an opportunity to see whether Phoenix would be happy staying with the family. I was very impressed with the level of contact through his stay as Sam would send pictures and let us know how Phoenix was getting on. I would definitely recommend Sam to other people as he is friendly, kind and also is good value for money .
Our dog Monty had the best weekend with Sam - lots of walks, cuddles and updates! He was so relaxed as soon as he got to Sam’s place and clearly had the best time! Thanks Sam so much for taking such good care of Monty and for all the photos and videos keeping us updated!

Schedule
Schedule: Dogs become part of my day, but I still carry on with my own routine. They get their walks, food and attention, while I also get on with my own things.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety, trust & environment: I have Oscar, my nine-year-old Cocker Spaniel, so it’s important to me that dogs are comfortable around each other and that everyone gets on.
