Pet care experience

Next to a park and we love walking

We have had Springer Spaniels and a cockapoo from puppy. Our Springers lived until 16. We still have our cockapoo. We love walking and finding swimming holes on the Itchen. We have a park right next door and a big garden for the dogs to explore. We take our Charlie everywhere with us. We have also had our daughter’s miniature dachshund live with us for a year with our Springers. Both my husband and I work full time from home. We take lots of breaks to walk our own dog and do a lunchtime walk to get exercise. On the weekends we go for longer excursions on the South Downs and the beach. We have a fenced large garden and our own 9 year old cockapoo who is very well behaved and active. We can accommodate a crate or have the dog sleep in our bedroom with Charlie on their dog bed. We only accept fully vaccinated dogs so please provide a copy of your vaccination card when booking.

Sandra is great, best doggie care Ella has ever had. She always comes back happy and calm from her stay with Sandra. And when I drop her off at hers she can’t wait to get in!! Thanks Sandra for being so wonderful with Ella. I absolutely recommend her

Very positive first experience using Sandra to care for our dog. She provided prompt and helpful response to enquiries and our dog had a great time playing with Charlie, the family dog, as evidenced by the video she sent to me. I would highly recommend Sandra.

Doggy Day Care • Jan 20, 2026

We recently had the pleasure of using Sandra's services to look after our older Jack Russell for a day. She is a very kind, caring and professional dog boarder, and I would not hesitate in recommending her.

Schedule

I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to take play breaks and a long lunchtime walk. Weekends are for real excursions as we love to explore the local countryside and markets.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large fully fenced garden and are adjacent to the park. We will follow your guidance on walking in or off lead. Charlie loves to share his space and play if others want to. We supervise feeding time. Everyone sleeps in our room at night on their own bed. The day starts around 7am and we tend to do a last outdoor break around 11pm.

Pets

A typical day

We start off with an early morning walk and play in the park next door. We go out again at lunch time and in the afternoon. We go for a long evening walk and play. We have fun breaks in the garden playing fetch or chase. If the weather is hot we can take them swimming in the Itchen.
