Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog staycations made easy! Belly rubs are free
I have grown up with Labradors so am very used to dogs (of all personalities, including the highly strung ones!) I have had Labradors from puppies so am very used to rearing dogs from a young age. I regularly care for a Staffordshire bull terrier, a cocker spaniel and a couple of other Labradors to name just a few. I work from home almost full time so am very flexible and can be on hand to meet all needs :) I have a 2 year old black Labrador called Sasha who loves all dogs and thrives with a little play mate or someone to cuddle. I am usually on hand to respond to requests at late notice and I aim to respond to all enquiries within 30 minutes.

Sophie W. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Sophie had our 2 year old working cocker spaniel for the day and we are so thankful!! She had no issues taking care of Nala and gave her a lovely walk. Nala came back very happy and we are so grateful to Sophie for looking after her for the day especially at short notice.
This was Mickey’s second stay with Sophie having stayed for 2-and-a-bit weeks in August. He loved going back, went straight in and made himself at home. Unfortunately Mickey was taken ill while we were away but Sophie was amazing, taking him and picking him up from the vet, giving us regular updates - nothing was too much trouble. Thank you again for looking after our boy so well!
Sophie is absolutely wonderful! She and her gorgeous pooch looked after our Luna (black lab) for the day today and Luna has been so happy since picking her up, she was very well looked after! Sophie’s communication was great through the day, and we shall certainly rely on her again going forward. Thanks so much!
Elektra had her own mini holiday, while we were away. Was made to feel welcome, and our girl made herself at home, and had her raw food accommodated. Sophie (and Sasha) were smashing start to finish, regular up dates and mind put my at rest that she was settled. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again, many thanks.
Sampson stayed with Sophie and Sasha for 8 nights whilst we were on holiday and the service was great, with regular photos and updates of his own little holiday. Would easily recommend Sophie to anyone. Thanks again for looking after our pooch!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I work from home almost full time so am very flexible to fit most doggies’ routines. I live on the edge of a walking trail and a large common so there are plenty of opportunities for daily walks / runs on or off the lead multiple times a day if necessary. My own dog has 2 x long walks a day and doggies that stay with us simply come along.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a large bungalow with a large garden, inside a gated community so there is lots of safe space but no stairs to manage, and doggies can have free roam.

A typical day
There’s always at least one long walk to include some fun on the local common. We love all kinds of dog toys and squeaky balls in this house so those usually come on the walks too!
