Doggy Play Days for small dogs

I have always loved dogs, and since rescuing my dog Bruce, I have embraced all things canine. I have a 4 star Animal Welfare Licence, and have taken dog related courses, to improve my knowledge, a Dog behavior and training course and a Dog First Aid and emergency canine care course. I am DBS checked and situated in the Lee on the Solent area, near various beautiful walks. I live near a country Park, with lots of lovely walks,and when using my car its fitted with seat belts to keep your dog safe. I look forward to meeting and welcoming your small dog to my home and garden ready for a fun packed day with love care and commitment. I offer full time care for your small dog with good walks, love, care and attention. My schedule is walk in the morning play time in the afternoon or another walk. I have a fenced garden, separate area for receiving dogs, and safety harnesses in car in case of travel, trained in first aid for dogs. Fenced front garden to prevent your dog from running off. Please keep on lead and keep the gate closed.

Our two chihuahuas boarded with Sandy for 2 days. They had a fabulous time and were well looked after by Sandy who provided updates and photos throughout their stay. They loved their walks twice a day and enjoyed the company of Sandy's two small dogs. We would definitely recommend Sandy and would board our dogs with her again in the future. Well worth a 5 Star review!

Sandy is a wonderful sitter and we feel totally reassured when we leave Margo and Dottie with her. She gives us daily updates and they go on some lovely walks, even in the heavy rain ! We are so pleased to have found her ! It’s so nice going on holiday knowing that your dogs are being well cared for. Thankyou xx

We have used Sandy for over two years now and wouldn't leave Dotty with anyone else! Dotty can be quite nervous but we always feel reassured that she is happy and having the best time with Sandy and the boys. The photos and updates we receive are just wonderful, and always quick to respond. Thank you for everything you do for Dotty!

Thank you so much Sandy for having Roxie for the weekend. I can't believe she rolled in something nasty and you even showered her for me!!! The updates from you were very much appreciated and reassuring and I would highly recommend you to other owners of small dogs. First class care. Thanks Sandy xx

Our dogs had a great stay! They went on some lovely walks and had a great time with Sandy's dogs too. Sandy was kind, confident and experienced and we wouldn't hesitate to book again with her.
