Highlights
Pet care experience
Very Responsible dog loving couple!
Myself and my husband Chris have both grown up with dogs. Chris had two Jack Russels and I had a brown Labrador and a Springer Spaniel. After years of dog sitting we decided to get a dog of our own, a lurcher/lab/poodle cross. Our pup is very social and so we’d still like to dog sit but will be quite particular about which dogs we accept. They need to be neutered and fine with other dogs. I work from home a few days a week so it’s good to have more furry friends around for some company. We would love to look after your dogs, we will walk them as required and make sure they are pampered and never alone throughout their stay. Every dog is unique and we can't wait to see what personalities we meet.

Ratings and reviews
Samantha was great! I contacted her a quite short notice to arrange for my cockapoo to stay with her for the day whilst we were on holiday. She was very accommodating and really friendly. Great location too! Would definitely book again. 🙂
Samantha was a brilliant dog sitter, sending me updates and videos of Poppi out on her walks (runs). Very attentive to Poppi’s needs. Recommended!
Sam & Chris are brilliant - sent regular pupdates through and Frankie had clearly had a great weekend when we picked her up on Sunday. Will definitely be contacting them again if we’re in the area, thanks guys ☺️
Titch was bright eyed, relaxed and happy upon her return from her one night stay. We would happily ask Sam to look after her again.
Our occasionally quite nervous cockapoo Harley was obviously very happy with Sam and other members of the family. He came back very chilled with several backward glances as if to say 'aren't my new friends coming too?' Sam even texted us occasional photos of H running in the park etc and crashed out happily at the end of the day.
Sam did such an incredible job looking after my dog Archer! He is an energetic collie but they got on perfectly. She sent me updates and photos, always reassuring me that he was okay. She even took him out for a run, something I have never been brave enough to do myself so well done. Highly recommend. Archer will be going back on our next trip.

Schedule
I work from home some days so they will be with me. I take them out for walks at lunch time and around 4pm in the afternoon.

We make every effort to make sure they walk,play and eat enough, and feel at ease with us during their stay. They will have some fun playing with our dog too.

A typical day
Lots of walks on trails and local parks and the beach, lengths of walks will depend on the dogs ability. If requested I can also take the dog for runs.
