Pet care experience

Experienced, fit active pet lovers

We’re a married couple who’ve both grown up with animals and are very active, spending lots of time outdoors, so long walks in any weather are no problem. We’re confident with puppies needing consistency, senior dogs who prefer a slower pace, and everything in between. We also have experience with cats, rabbits, hamsters, mice, tortoises, sheep and donkeys. We’re comfortable with medication, special diets and specific routines. If your dog has a bedtime biscuit, we’ll keep that going. If you use commands in another language, we’re happy to learn them. We’re also open to longer stays and advance bookings, and can step in to keep things running smoothly so you can head away feeling confident everything at home is in safe hands.

Safety, trust & environment

We’re careful and consistent with routines, especially at night. We always make sure pets go out before bed and are safely settled wherever they usually sleep — whether that’s the boot room, a crate, or in the bedroom with us. We keep an eye on things without fuss and follow your normal setup so everything stays familiar and secure.

House Sitting • Apr 12, 2026

Sarah and John were so lovely. I had no hesitation in leaving Ted and Cato with them. They treated the house with great respect and our animals clearly warmed to them immediately. I would recommend them to anyone, but want to keep them just for us!

As written by Caroline..Sarah & her husband were absolutely delightful, the house was immaculate & when I returned the dogs well and happy. They kept me well informed about everything and all in all a delight to have here. As written by Ann…Sarah and John looked after my boys. From our initial conversation on FaceTime I knew F he would be a perfect fit for my boys. They are a lovely couple, very thorough. At my request they arrived the evening before I left so we could discuss the boys requirements. Ren can sometimes be reactive with other dogs and I need to be sure they were ok with everything. They looked after the boys really well. They sent me updates and photos on a regular basis. They looked after my home and garden for me and watered all my plants through a particularly hot period. When I got home the garden looked beautiful and my house was exactly how I left it

We’re an experienced, outdoorsy couple who genuinely love all dogs — from tiny puppies finding their feet to senior dogs who need a gentler pace. We’ve cared for pups going through training, dogs on medication, and older ones in the early stages of doggie dementia, so nothing phases us. Toileting accidents? Absolutely no problem — we handle it calmly and without fuss. Because we’ve had pets of our own, we also understand how hard it is to leave them. That’s why we focus on keeping their routines familiar, giving them plenty of affection, and making sure you feel fully at ease while you’re away. Your dog gets a safe, settled, loving stay… and you get peace of mind.
