Dog-lovers with a welcoming home for your pooch!
Pet care experience
Hello! Sarah-Louise and Niall here. We absolutely adore having furry friends to share our days with! We have always had dogs in our homes (puppy through to mature aged) and since being in London (from Ireland) we occasionally look after friends pets while they are away. We are now home again, based in Belfast. My (Sarah-Louise) uncle is an experienced pedigree dog breeder so I have lots of experience with puppies and older dogs too. We are well used to feeding, bathing, cleaning up after and snuggling pooches! We love all dogs, big and small and it would bring us great joy to look after your pets.
Reviews
Sarah-Louise was an absolute delight to deal with - and was so accommodating when we asked to extend the day care times and most importantly looked after Rua so well. Rua is an energetic dog but Sarah-Louise had no problems keeping him entertained for the day. I got pictures and updates which is always reassuring which showed Rua very content. Thanks a million, Sarah-Louise. Rua is already looking forward to his next BBQ with you!!
Sarah-Louise and Niall were great with Rex, he settled in so quick and we can tell he had such a good day with them! He came home so happy and settled after having a great walk and cuddles 🥰
I can’t speak highly enough of Sarah-Louise and Niall who looked after Peggy at theirs for a week! They sent loads of updates and photos and took Peggy out on some really fun adventures. I’ll definitely be using them again!!
I highly recommend using Sarah-Louise and Niall to look after your dog. They took Luna on plenty of walks and Luna had a great time with them. They are also very flexible with pick up/ drop off times and communicate very well :)

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a safe ground floor flat in a leafy street. We have plenty of parks and green spaces around our home plus a safe, enclosed front yard so your furry friend can get some air between walks and toilet breaks. Your pet will receive lots of love, cuddles, and walks. We like to take dogs on at least 2 walks a day. Pups are allowed on furniture and beds (or not if that isn’t part of your training). When boarding over the weekend we like to take dogs with us whatever our plans - a lovely walk for a coffee in a local cafe or an evening pint in a pub garden (if your dog is happy in these environments of course).
Home
Information Sarah-Louise D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or needs to be given medication - happy to do both! Likewise with any training - allowed on furniture, recall, treats etc. It would also be good to know what their recall is like so I know if I can let them off the lead or not. I am always down for a meet and greet first to make sure the two of us get on well and to put you at ease.
A typical day
Lots of play time, snuggles and walks! Happy to follow your dogs normal routine or take them on an adventure. Happy to walk on a long line/lead for the first few times to build confidence together before letting off lead, and will only do so in safe areas away from road. Also if the walk is particularly muddy/dirty then I’m happy to wash/towel them off afterwards to make sure they’re clean and comfortable.
