Dog's best friend in Winchester

Looking after dogs (and learning from them) has been my main focus for the past 7 years so I've been able to gain vast experience with different personalities, behavioural issues and getting to know their little quirks :) I have a level 4 diploma in Advanced Dog Behaviour at the British College of Canine Studies, Winchester City Council Dog care/boarding Licence No 22/01548/LICBOM, DBS checked and First aid and CPR accredited. DROP OFF AND PICK UP REQUIRED. There's nothing more rewarding than a waggy tail at the end of the day. I'll take so much care of your pooch as if they were my own. Take them for adventures in the park, enjoy puddle fun on rainy days or cuddle up and make them feel loved and secure. I can also provide light basic training whilst on our walks, structured socialisation and enrichment games to keep your pup stimulated, after all 20 min of mental stimulation is equivalent to an hour's walk in terms of enrichment.

Sara once again looked after our Saffy with such great care and love Saffy always comes away happy, and we come away knowing she has been looked after like one of the family. We can’t thank Sara enough as we wouldn’t have been able to enjoy our daughter’s wedding if we weren’t so confident in her care. Saffy suffers from allergies and Sara done everything we asked to ensure these didn’t flare up and we really appreciate her attention to detail. Thanks again Sara and we look forward to the next time if you are happy to have our sick note princess back. Caroline, Chris & Saffy

Once again Saffy has had the best time with Sara. The moment she dragged us through the front door we knew she was happy to be back. Sara has a very calm way about her and Saffy loves her and doesn't stress while we are away. We were able to have a great weekend away knowing Saffy was happy and safe. Thanks again Sara we really appreciate having you there to look after our baby.

Sara is outstandingly good at caring for dogs and enriching their lives whilst in her care. Our dog loves going to Sara’s home and is clearly very happy spending time with her.

Sara is so good with Milo, he really enjoys being part of her family. He has some lovely walks with her and Sara always matches “new buddy’s” together well, so both dogs have fun. It’s great to know he is so well looked after. Thanks Sara

My love and passion for animals especially dogs has grown so much over the years that I've decided to turn it into my full time job and keep on learning about animal welfare.
