Sean was incredibly helpful and attentive when visiting Bakkie and Trek. He communicated promptly during his visits and both the cats seemed very comfortable with him. The meet and greet was a smooth process and definitely worth it. I will be booking again with Sean. 5⭐️

Bowie had an amazing day at Sean and Ida’s today. He played with his new puppy friend all day. I was sent videos which reassured me he was happy as it was his first time away from home. He was picked up and dropped off to me which made it so convenient for me to go to work. They are lovely people and I trusted them implicitly. Would highly recommend!

Sean was really comforting at the meet and greet especially with it being our first time using rover app. On drop off Sean was very reassuring that phoenix would enjoy his overnight stay and did update us with photos which was amazing to see phoenix enjoy himself. Phoenix enjoyed his stay and was happy playing with darcy we will definitely be using Sean and darcy service again! Thank you ever so much again for having him and giving us both reassurance

Sean was great. Quick comms. Friendly. Flexible with our pick-up/drop off times. Did his proper due diligence before taking in my dog for the day. Pictures and updates throughout the day. Returned me a happy and tired collie (not an easy feat!)

Safety, trust & environment

One of us will be at home with your dog, they will never be left alone or unattended for a substantial length of time (I may have to pop out to the shop). I know this is important to you when your choosing a sitter, especially for those mischievous puppies who like to get into everything at the blink of a eye! We are lucky to have a large fenced garden, plenty of natural grass and shaded spaces with lots of safe toys for play time! There is plenty of space to roam around the ground floor of our home. During the visit we supply all dogs with an Apple Air tag, although we hope to never have to use them, your pets safety is our number one concern, and this enables us to track the location should the worse ever happen, our home is also covered with CCTV cameras. We are able to provide luxury dog beds, food bowls and julius K9 harnesses. We ask that you can provide the following. * Enough Food and treats for the duration of the stay. * Leads, harnesses. * Medication with instructions. * Puppy pads if required. * Dog poo bags (Please) * Proof of vaccination status 
for first booking. ** Please Note the following** This isn’t our full time job, and we both work, but we do our upmost to make ourselves available for bookings, meet and greets, and general contact. But please be patient if we can’t always respond quickly and understanding if we aren’t available. All bookings require payment via Rover.com. No bookings can be confirmed until payment has been made. Rover.com cancellation policy applies. Thank you!!

A typical day

Your pet will visit all the great nature walks/forests around our home for a scenic walk and then your dog will get play ball games and play with Darcy. We are lucky to live very close to the Brecon Beacons national park, Cwmcarn Forrest and have countryside all around. Upon returning home your dog will have the choice to take a quick nap in our luxury dog beds or continue to play with Darcy in the garden.

We love all types of dogs and want to create a home from home environment for them where they will also have the opportunity to socialise with our 6 year old Labrador, Darcy. He is very much the heart of our home! We firmly believe every dog should be treated like a member of the family! 🥰
