Information Sophie M. would like to know about your pet

Its important to me that your dog settles well in new environments - please let me know how they usually are with new people, surroundings and dogs and how relaxed they are in the house. Let me know if your dog has any specific behavioural requirements I need to look out for - or if they arent great at walking on a lead etc, I am happy to accommodate all but it would be great to have a heads up so I know what to expect or if theres anything I can do in preparation for their stay

A typical day

I live super close to enclosed fields where I would often walk your dog along with my own, so they can play and go as crazy and they would like too in a safe space. I also have numerous cycle paths / forest parks around me for walks away from busy areas which are sure to keep your dog well entertained. With me working from home, I am always with your dog and will be sure to schedule lots of play time breaks and a run in my fenced garden outside, so I can assure you they’d never be bored and will come back to you worn out (in the best way!)

Pet care experience

I absolutely LOVE dogs and will always make sure I provide the best services tailored to meet the unique needs of each pup. 🐾 With a lifelong love for animals and years of experience, your pets are in safe and loving hands under my care. 💗 I work hybrid with a few days in the office & my partner is fully remote (who is equally as dog mad as me!) so there will never be a time your dog would be on its own in the house - along with my super friendly Golden Retriever, Otis 🐶 I have a fully fenced garden with plenty room for playtime & space for your pets to roam and enjoy the outdoors 🌤️ I also provide grooming services like brushing, dry baths (& full baths if its been super muddy) so your pup can feel fresh and clean during their stay. Why me? Reliability: You can count on me to be punctual and dependable, providing consistent care for your pets. Passion: I genuinely love what I do and treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the utmost attention and affection. Communication: I prioritize open communication, providing regular updates along with daily photos of your pup so you can have peace of mind while you're away 🫶🏼

Sophie was brilliant with our 5 year old Vizsla, Frank. He stayed for one night, we got constant updates from the moment he arrived and lovely pictures of him with Otis. We will definitely be booking in more holidays for Frank!

Sophie looked after Toto for 2 nights and he seemed very happy in the picture/video updates sent. I was worried with Toto being a senior dog, but Sophie took great care and ensured he was comfortable and happy!
