We're home all day. Experienced & caring 🐾

Pet care experience

Hey, we're Steph (32) & Harry (29): a couple of caring, loving dog owners that work from home Mon-Fri! 🐾 Benefit from two sitters with us, guaranteeing your pup will get the love & attention they need. We will send you lots of messages, photos and videos so you can relax that they're safe and happy when they're with us! Our home is animal friendly - clean, tidy, no carpet downstairs, no toxic plants, secure large garden with high fences, no children. With the two of us looking after your pet during their stay, you can rest assured that they will get plenty of love, fuss and attention! We are also now experienced beagle owners, (so we are well-versed in dealing with active pups - beagle parents, you know what we mean!) Our dog has been poorly (hemorrhagic gastroenteritis when she was 5 months old, stomach issues, and allergies) so we are knowledgeable on how to care for dogs - we would do anything to ensure ours is safe, comfortable and happy, and will treat yours just the same. We've also become the go-to dog expert of family and friends - they trust our opinions and knowledge. Our girl is friendly and gets on with all pets; dogs, cats. She's the go-to playmate amongst my family's pets. She's gentle with puppies - knows how to adapt her play perfectly to suit dogs of all ages and sizes and will be the perfect companion to keep yours company whilst they stay with us. She is also 100% up-to-date on flea, worming and vaccinations. It's important to complete a meet & greet in a neutral location first so we can make sure everyone, especially our pets, will be happy! Thanks for considering us - and we hope to see you soon! Dogs we have cared for: - Beaglier (ours! with 100% beagle personality) - Cavapoo - Yorkshire Terrier - Pug - Bull Mastiff - Cavapoochon - French Bulldog - Chihuahua - Collie x Labrador - Pomeranian - Labrador - Cockapoo - Springer Spaniel - Schnauzer - & cats!

This was the first time we had left our Pup with non family , Steph and Harry put our minds at ease by arranging a meet up prior and then keeping us informed throughout the day via photos and messages . We would definitely use them again as Fred came home happy and very tired after all his fun .

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a detached house with a large, secure garden and live on a quiet road in the corner. Traffic, people, noises etc aren't an issue. Our house & garden is completely pet safe. We would do anything for ours, and will treat yours the same. You set the rules and we promise to follow them. It would be devastating if someone fed ours something they shouldn't with her allergies, so we know exactly how it would feel if we didn't respect your wishes.

Information Steph L. would like to know about your pet

Of course you know your pets best - so anything you think you should tell us. But let us know if: - They've got any particular anxieties, worries or triggers, and what comforts them? - Details on their personality/temperament - Any allergies or medical conditions to care for (ours has food allergies - so there's never anything they can get to that they shouldn't) - Are they up-to-date with flea, worming and vaccinations? - Any particular behavioural issues - resource guarding, destructive tendencies etc - Are they crate trained? What's their usual sleeping routine? - How much and how often do they eat? - What commands are they familiar with? - How do you reward good behaviour, or deal with bad? - What boundaries do they have at home that you'd like us to be consistent with? - Anything we should know when taking them for a walk? Ideally, they would be friendly and comfortable with other dogs. If they're not, we can see if we can accommodate your pup - we do have plenty of space to keep them separate from ours if we need to. Meets and greets first are compulsory; it's important to make sure everyone is comfortable.

A typical day

Our dog is friendly and playful. We can play with toys, they can run around in the garden, use enrichment toys like a snuffle mat or puzzle feeder, or snuggle on the couch. We have a large, secure grassed garden with high fences, and there is a big secure stretch of land on our estate too, plus plenty of lovely green areas perfect for a walk like the Dream.
