Information Samantha F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog is okay with travelling in the car (in the back of a 4x4) as sometimes I might take them for a walk into neighbouring Calke Abbey or the local reservoir which are both a 5 minute drive away.

A typical day

A typical week day involves a walk first thing in the morning over nearby fields in the village, throwing a ball in the garden for extra fun/exercise and evening walk in the village (in the winter months) or nearby Calke Abbey or local reservoir in the lighter nights.

Pet care experience

We provide a relaxed, caring and safe environment for your dog(s). Our home is a farmhouse in Stanton-by-Bridge, in the countryside with lovely walks on the doorstep over fields and in woods. We have an adorable miniature labradoodle called Eddie who is 12 years old. Eddie has a lovely temperament and would welcome some new furry friends with open paws! 🐾. We encourage arranging a ‘meet and greet’ opportunity before you confirm the booking to ensure your dog is happy and comfortable. Please contact us to arrange a mutually convenient date and time.

A day spent in someone else’s home can be a big deal for a dog, but Winnie clearly landed in the right place. Samantha and her family gave her such warm, thoughtful care, and it really showed. The videos and photos they sent throughout the stay were genuinely lovely — reassuring, personal, and full of Winnie looking relaxed, happy, and very much at home. She clearly enjoyed herself , and it’s easy to see why. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Thank you - highly recommend 🐾🐶🤩

We couldn’t be happier with the care, regular updates and reassurance we received from Samantha and Campbell during Reg’s stay. This was the first time we’d ever left our 18 month old, high energy patterdale terrier overnight, so we were unsure how he would be for four nights. He was absolutely fine and was 100% treated as part of the family, he also got on so well with their beautiful and chilled dog Eddie. Reg definitely had a great holiday and we will without doubt board him with Samantha and Campbell again. A huge thank you from us!
