Pet care experience

I am a huge dog lover I have grown up with dogs in my family and later in life have owned my own dogs.I love the bonding between my pets and myself and my family a dog makes a home! I will care for your dog as per any instructions you give me and will tailor make your dogs stay with me and my family. Im sure your dog will find there stay with me like I his/hers holidays and will look forward to coming back again. I have a Labradoodle who is excellent with other dogs, loves to play and is as friendly as can be. When I take him out for walks he is known by the whole community and people will come for strokes and pats etc. I live in a rural area next to fantastic dog walking territory right on my doorstep(please see pictures) the area is full of public foot paths, roaming fields and valleys and excellent woodland. I feel it is a dog walkers paradise. I live in a terraced house in Shotley Bridge I have a rear yard which can be used for those other toilet emergencies. I am outgoing, friendly,caring and respectful person that im sure you will get on with. It is important to me that I have a great relationship with dog and owners. For a stay to remember and to come back time and time again please contact me you are more than welcome to visit my home etc to get the feel of the place and see if this is your next dogs holiday!

Walter stayed for 6 nights with Stephen. We had regular updates and he settled extremely well with his routine being followed. No issues whatsoever.

I had already booked Stephen previously as a trial day for this longer 4 night stay, and as before they took great care of Missy and kept me updated with messages and photos. She was very relaxed from dropping her off to picking her up. Highly recommended
