Safe, Loved & Happy: Care by Sara
Hi there — I’m Sara! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is what I truly love. Whether you’ve got a playful pup who thrives on activity, a chilled companion who prefers gentle company, or a senior dog who needs a slower pace and extra care, I make sure every guest feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Dog Daycare - Supervised playgroups matched by size, age, and temperament - Enrichment, walks, and structured rest breaks - Photo/video updates so you can follow the fun Dog Boarding - Comfortable, home-from-home stays with cosy sleep setups - Routine kept consistent (your dog’s own food, schedule, and comforts) - Medication administered and special diets supported Safety & Standards - Temperament meet-and-greet before the first visit - Vaccination and health requirements in place - Clean and secure environment My aim is simple: you relax, knowing your dog is getting plenty of love, enrichment, and cuddles — and will come home content and happily tired.

Ratings and reviews
Our Dog had the most amazing stay with Sara whilst we were on holiday. Sara took excellent care of him, sending us lots of updates of him walking in the woods and playing with other dogs in her secure garden. He came home very relaxed and content. Would definitely recommend Sara for anyone looking for dog care in a home from home setting with a kind and attentive host.
Our Staffie, Belle, has just returned from a very successful stay with Sara, Belle had a great time! Sara was very helpful and professional. She quickly formed a good relationship with Belle and sent us several videos and photos throughout the stay. Thank you, Sara!
Poppy had a wonderful stay with Sara. Sara was very friendly, professional and responsive and kept us updated during the stay. Would definitely re book.
Sara was more than brilliant with our flat coated retriever. The multiple updates throughout the visit from photos to videos was so reassuring! Sara made Basil (our dog) feel so part of her family! He was very spoilt with lots of hugs, walks and playtime. The attention to detail was brilliant. Any small concern or question was put to me straight away instead of just being assumed. It really shows that Sara knows our dog and his routine / mannerisms. Only the level of detail and understanding you can discover by spending real time and investing love and care. Thank you for providing us the best ever dog boarding experience. We will be sending Basil to Sara for every small weekend away to every longer holiday from now on! Knowing with 100% confidence that our loved dog is in very good hands!
VERY UNPROFESSIONAL, SHE BY FAR THE WORST DOG SITTER EVER! Your dog sitter Sara asked to meet my two caucasian shepherd dogs in May before accepting the responsibilty of looking after them. She met the dogs and noticed how loving and gentle they are. we dicussed that only on the following condition that i will allow her to look after the dogs 1. I do not want my dogs mixing with any other dogs or children including hers during their stay, Also i would rather her not take them out daily, she agreed to put a fence between my dogs and hers and also not walk them dailyand keep them away feom her kids, that was our agreement before i signed on the doted line. I dropped off my dogs on the 31st of July at around 10am and flew to morocco with my family that same evening on our holiday from 31st of july and to return on the 5th of august and paid in advance for this service. From the 1st of August i started receiving whatsapp messages from Sara, saying my dogs are barking too much. This are natural guard dogs and reacts to certain noise and thats the only time they bark. If she had done her home work as a professional dog sitter before accepting this responsibility, she would have known that caucasian shepherds are guard dogs even though they are lovely and gentle giants, they have their protective instincts. She started complaining that she has 2 children and a job and cannot handle looking after my dogs as her neigbours were complaining and this lovley dogs are growling at her kid. She kept sending me whats app messages all night through to early morning threatning that i need to pick up my dogs asap even though she knows i was out of the country. Just Imagine, we have just arrived on holiday and bearly spent a day in morocco and i had to cancel our holiday and find away to change our flights from 05/08/26 to 03/08/26 costing additional £700 to get my family of 6 home and pick our two dogs up by 4pm on 3/8/26. She caused alot of stress and anxiety for me and my family of 6 on our 1st full family holiday in years. Now i need my refund as she could not uphold her agreement to look after my dogs for the full term agreed. I will not recommend her to my worst enemy.
Excellent communication, message and videos. Leia enjoyed it, would recommend.

Schedule
Because I work from home, pet care is woven into my day. I already have a dog, so regular walks and toilet breaks are part of my routine and easily extended to guests. A typical day looks like: - Morning: Up to 1 hour walk, then breakfast. - Lunchtime: neighbourhood walk to stretch legs and reset. - Evening: walk, dinner, and a final let-out before bed. If not cold, my garden door is always open so your pups can go in and out as he/she wants. If not, regular toilet breaks are provided. I tailor frequency for puppies or seniors, can administer meds, and keep your dog’s schedule consistent. With supervised introductions, friendly dogs can socialise with mine; if needed, I’m also set up to keep dogs separate and calm. You’ll get updates throughout the day so you can relax knowing their needs are covered.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Secure setup: I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Friendly resident dog: Introductions are slow and supervised, and I can keep dogs separate if they prefer solo time. Flexible spaces: I use baby gates to manage zones. I can crate your dog on request to match training or provide a cosy den. Clean & hazard-free: I keep a tidy home, store food/chemicals out of reach, use pet-safe cleaning products, most of them are plant-based. Constant supervision: I work from home, so dogs get regular toilet breaks, walks, and check-ins throughout the day, plus structured rest. Health & wellbeing: I follow your dog’s routine (diet, meds, cues). I ask for up-to-date vaccinations and your vet’s contact for peace of mind. Comfortable sleep: Quiet, comfy sleeping areas—happy to use your dog’s own bed/blanket to keep things familiar. Clear communication: You’ll receive photo/video updates and honest feedback. I do a meet-and-greet before the first stay to align on needs and temperament. Out & about: Walks are on-lead unless you’ve approved off-lead time in a secure area. ID tags and safety checks are standard.
