Home away from home dog boarding
I provide home away from home dog boarding holidays for your best friend/fur baby :) Boarding and pet care services offered by experienced trusted professional and animal lover who really cares. Please see my extensive feedback. I have a lifetime of dog ownership and 12 years experience of running a professional pet services business, giving me the experience and skills required to provide the care and attention that your dog requires. I have a detailed understanding of all of the best dog walking routes and locations and like to vary these where possible to keep your dog enriched and happy. I love to take the time to meet and get to know you and thoroughly understand your dogs needs, whether they require any specific care or if you would like me to use my experience in helping address behaviourial issues I am fully insured
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
This was our first stay with Steve, and he was absolutely first class. Max was extremely well looked after, and really happy to be there. Steve clearly understands dogs (and their owners!) and was great with updates, and all communication was straightforward and really easy. We'll definitely be going back.
Penny had a great time on her weeks holiday with Steve and little Logan. This was the first time Penny had been looked after since she has been on medication. Steve made sure he followed the routine which was reassuring. She came back well balanced and in good health. We will definitely use Steve again.
Steve looked after my German shepherd for just over a week. She was relaxed and happy when I returned and had obviously had a lovely time. Steve is professional and has a genuine love of animals. He kept me updated with texts and pictures while I was away and generally put me at ease. Would 100% recommend to anyone wishing to leave their pet.
Steve was absolutely amazing with Leo and Kobe, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Both dogs have different temperaments and needs and he was able to adapt to them straight away. Both dogs came back very happy and relaxed after a great week. Really appreciated Steve’s communication and reassurance throughout, thank you, Steve!!
Steve was brilliant with Leo. We were half expecting at least a tiny bit of “please don’t leave me”, but judging by the updates he was clearly having the time of his life. He looked really happy, settled in straight away, and seems to have found a new best mate in Logan, so I suspect coming home may actually have been a disappointment. Steve kept us updated and it was obvious Leo was very well looked after. Would definitely use again.
Steve was brilliant! He has certainly done his homework on dog behaviour creating a safe and secure environment, not only for Coco but also for us! We will look forward to bringing Coco back whenever we need. Thoroughly recommended! Thanks Steve

Schedule
I run another small business and tend to work evenings, so I am home all day and able to give your fur baby my full attention and walk them or play whenever they want
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced/walled garden annd also have a very friendly jrt called logan who will keep your doggy company. My house is a dog friendly house, so they are allowed everywhere other than my bedroom and allowed in sofas (if that is ok with you)
Pets
A typical day
My service is home away from home and a holiday for them too. So I love to stimulate your pets with lots of varied walks, as well as games with logan. I also have far too many toys that they can choose from too
