Loving Dog Care
I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up in South Africa, we always had both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently have a friendly and energetic 5-year-old Jack Russell called Frank, who loves walks, playtime and making new doggy friends. Looking after Frank has given me plenty of experience with active dogs and, most importantly, an understanding that every dog has their own personality, routine and individual needs. I have plenty of time to give your dog attention, exercise, cuddles and companionship throughout their stay. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable and settled when they're away from home, so I'll do my best to keep their normal routine and follow any instructions you provide. I'm available at weekends and would love to care for your dog while you're away. I have a beautiful woodland area right behind my home, which is perfect for exciting walks and adventures, as well as a fully secure, enclosed garden where dogs can safely play, explore or simply relax. I'm also happy to administer medication if needed and will always follow your dog's usual routine and any special instructions to make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for. I know how difficult it can be to leave your dog with someone else, and I want you to have complete peace of mind while you're away. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise and companionship. I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 🐾

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My dog, Frank, is a much-loved member of my family and lives indoors with me, so any dog staying with me will be treated just like one of my own. My home has a secure, fully enclosed back garden where dogs can safely play and explore. I understand how important routine is, so I'll do my best to follow your dog's usual schedule, including feeding times, walks, medication, and any special care instructions. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.
