Genuine love of animals

Pet care experience

I grew up around dogs, having one ourselves and also my grandparents 4 dogs. When I left home I had a cat and after sadly losing him I decided to have an indoor cat who I sadly lost last year after having her for 16.5 years. Myself and my husband adopted a 7 year old Jack Russel cross Yorkshire terrier 8 years ago and sadly lost her the beginning of last year at 14.5years so as you can imagine last year was a sad year for me for losing my beloved babies. However we did decide to have another dog last year and welcomed Taylor to our home. She is a 2yrs 8 month old Shorkie (Shitzu cross Yorkshire Terrier). She is a real character, also a typical noisy small dog, but we wouldn’t change her. We have 2 children as well, 1 teenager and also an 11 year old, so would need to be child friendly pets.

Coco seemed to settle in really well with Sara and her family. She was treated very well, with lots of sweeties! Sara sent us regular pictures and updates on how Coco was doing, which was really lovely and put us at ease knowing she was being well looked after.

Sara and her family have looked after Doug several times now. He absolutely loves spending time with them and is always excited to get to the door. Thank you so much for the fantastic care you give Doug.

Information Sara R. would like to know about your pet

Our dog is a typical Yorkshire terrier so very yappy, she’s harmless just very loud, she can get quite anxious with new faces, so please don’t be put off with her when you meet her, she just likes to talk and be heard.

A typical day

We have plenty of dog friendly places to walk near me and just let them run free and play fetch. I love going for walks with 2 of my friends who have dogs as well.
