Your dog's home away from home

Hi there! I'm Somah (also known as Nick) and I have lived with dogs since I was 10 years old. Since moving to the UK from South Africa nine years ago, I have really missed my furry friends (I grew up with four of them)! My fiance Lucy and I are experienced dog sitters and have looked after a broad range of breeds including labradors, daschunds, spaniels and terriers. We love being outside and live within short walking distance from Farncombe Woods and Broadwater Park - perfect for daily walks! We both work from home and offer a safe, loving and fun environment for your dog whilst you are away. The happiness of your dog is our priority! Happy to answer any questions, so do get in touch.

Trudy had a lovely day with Somah! It was a super hot day and they took such care to keep Trudy cool, and comfortable. Love getting little updates throughout the day! Trudy will be back to visit soon!

We couldn't be happier with how Nick and Lucy looked after our sprocker Alvie. It is clear how much they adore dogs and they went above and beyond to make sure he felt right at home. They kept us updated throughout the stay with messages on how Alvie was settling in and sent lots of pictures, which we absolutely loved. As a spaniel owner, finding someone who truly understands the breed's energy and needs isn't easy, so it was such a relief to find sitters we could trust completely. Seeing Alvie come back happy, relaxed, and well cared for said it all. We will definitely book again! Thanks both

Lucy and Steve are a lovely caring couple and Q, our Irish Terrier, took to them immediately. She was very happy in their home and they sent lots of lovely photos of Q having a great time with them over the weekend! They were also very helpful and kind when we were stuck in traffic and late to pick her up. We'll definitely be asking them to look after Q again - thanks so much, we enjoyed our little holiday so much more knowing she was in good hands!

Nick and Lucy were amazing! They were quick in communicating and sending updates for us to see how Toto was doing! Toto came back as a happy as ever and we had piece of mind while on holiday! I also met Nick before through a meet and greet, so it shows the commitment for great care and experience!

We live in a three bedroom, semi-detached house with a small front and back garden on a quiet cul-de-sac. We can look after your dog for a single day or multiple days depending on your needs. We are both very active with daily running and walking. We commit to exercising your dog as frequently as required to ensure their happiness. We always ensure to follow any care instructions and training rules that are provided by owners, and will keep you informed throughout your pet's stay with daily photos and updates.

We can provide anything from gentle walks, to long runs. From playing fetch to lots of cuddles on the sofa, you can be sure that your dog will be loved like it is our own.
