🐾 About Me: I've been a dog lover my whole life, sharing my home with furry friends who are treated like family. I have experience with small - medium dogs and have grown up with Golden Retrievers! I work from home and have my Cockerpoo, Ralph, for company and he can't wait to meet new friends! If your dog prefers to be the only dog in the house, that’s not a problem!! We can accommodate - just let me know 🤗

We left Henry with Sam again after a great experience back in April and it was the same again. I can not recommend her enough, she gave us updates on how he was and sent pictures too and she’s so lovely about it all and so accommodating. Will be booking in with her again in future!

Very glad I chose Samantha for Reggie for his week away, Samantha was very re assuring as it was Reggie’s first time away. Throughout the week Samantha was always sending over photos and videos of Reggie and letting me know how he was, any time I had a question it was answered quite swiftly.

Left my dog Henry with Sam whilst we went away for a few days and she was so lovely and friendly. Sent updates each morning on how he was and how he’d been through the night as it was his first time with someone else who wasn’t us and he got on so well with her and Ralph. She was so accommodating too and so lovely about everything. Would definitely rebook with her if we were going away again!

Safety, trust & environment

🐶 Your Pup's Routine: I'm keen to know all about your dog's routine – their favourite treats, toys, and any special preferences. The more I understand, the happier and more at ease your furry family member will be! 🌳 Playtime Galore: My home is equipped with a fully large secure garden, providing ample space for play and fun. 🌙 Overnight Stays: Overnight stays are no issue, and your pups are welcome to sleep with me if they prefer. If your fur babies are crate-trained, please bring your own, as I don't typically use them. I know how nerve wrecking it can be so plenty of pup-dates will be sent to you so you know how they are getting on! Rest assured, your dogs are in loving, capable hands, and I make sure they're as content as can be. They become part of our family for the time they are here 💖
