The dog whisperer

I have a Westie and a Gordon Setter. Both love other dogs. Everything I do revolves around them. I have had much experience having other dogs in my home. Our little family is welcoming, quiet and happy. We have hosted larger and smaller breeds. I have a fenced backyard which also offers some freedom to our furry friends. My own dogs are very well behaved and friendly. They love other dogs and even some people ;-)

The best experience. Will definitely be using Steve going forward. He sent photos and kept in contact during our time away and treated Angus as his own. He had full access to his home and was super comfortable and happy there.. He’s already looking forward to his next stay. Thank you!

Steve was fantastic. It was our first time having our dog at a sitter and it could not have been better.

This was our first time using this service. We went and interviewed with Steve. He was very kind and and polite when we met. We decided to book with him. And he treated our girl like his own. She was so very well looked after. We can not say enough about it. When we checked in on her. We were given pics to show how happy she was. As well as any news. What a great experience we have had and moving forward as long as he is free we will be booking with Steve again. If you need someone. Meet with Steve and his care for your pet will be amazing.

Schedule

I currently work from home so my schedule offers me a lot of free time. I always make our guests part of the family. They have full run of the house. I always say this is like going to Grandmas, the rules are very flexible and cuddles are a must!

Safety, trust & environment

Pets are my priority. Most people who know me know that my life revolves around them. My usual excuse is “I can’t, I have dogs to get home to”. And I’m perfectly happy with that. I believe that their lives are so short already, they deserve to have as much of our attention and love as possible.

Pets

A typical day

Our days revolve around what they like to do. Somedays we are all lazy and just relax with lots of cuddles and rubs. Other days we hit the road and take in all the sights and smells.

Knowing a dogs individual personality is a must. Knowing their likes and dislikes. I try to cater to every dogs needs and how they interact best. They must like other dogs, as I have two. I believe the more we know, the better the experience.
