I am retired and I'm home most of the day. I have 2 Toy poodles and a 10 yr old son who loves animals and is always supervised with them. Our girls are our world and the day is filled with fun balls cuddles treats training and the odd bath much to their dismay.

A typical day

The hot dogs love the paddle pool and the sprinkler. They have 10000 ft2 to run up and down in. We have all the balls you could imagine including an automatic ball thrower that my Milly and work herself clever girl. We treats and tunnels and in the winter we love snowy walks and running in the leaves.

The Perfect Place

Pet care experience

When I was born our family dog was 6 months old so U can really say I've grown up with dogs. Milly my Toy poodle has had pups and I just love caring for and training little ones. Just the perfect place for you doggies while parents are away. We have paddling pools and sprinklers and lots of space and shade for summer days relaxing by the pool and ball play. All kinds of balls footballs tennis balls rubber balls bouncy balls. Toys to chew and cuddle. Walks in the snow or patterning in the puddles. Our home from home consists of two toy poodle girlies my son and I have lots of space and love to spend time with animals we are very welcoming and trustworthy. Knowing that I could only trust my girls to be happy in a home board not a kennels I provide the Perfect Place for your dog to feel loved and safe until your return. I will be able to offer boarding for small to medium dogs females and males. I look forward to meeting your pet and spending some wonderful time with them. Thanks for your interest.

Tessa and her two pooches were amazing! Tessa had a beautiful long garden for the dogs to play in, along with a paddling pool in the summer and lots of toys. Minnie doesn’t do well in kennels and knowing that she had her home comforts while we were away allowed us to fully relax on holiday. Tessa also sent me daily videos and pictures which was lovely to see as a little check in. We will be back 😊

Charlie had a great bank holiday weekend with Tessa - drop off and pick up was easy, I got updates and photos with how he was doing and he was super happy when I picked him up. Tessa was responsive to messages quickly. Thanks again!!
