The Perfect Place

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.

Our 2 dogs spent a week with Tessa and they were looked after with care and kindness. We received several photos and videos showing they were happy which made us feel much better as this was the first time we had left them. Thank you Tessa.

My usual dog sitter let me down even though I'd been booked in for months. Didn't think I was going to find anyone in the summer holidays, but found Tessa on rover From the meet and greet to picking up Cabbage after our break went great. She has two of her own small dogs who are excitable but they are total sweethearts and I could see that when I collected my dog, she was settled right in with the family. Tessa home is set up perfect, welcoming for the dogs and a secure garden that is massive for them all to play in. Thank you so much for taking Cabbage in at a few weeks notice in the summer holidays, it is very much appreciated

Not long got home to my Jasper after his little Holiday with Tessa. Tessa is a lovely person with a real care for dogs not only her own but the furry visitors. I was kept updated with not only pictures but communication. I cannot recommend Tessa enough and would fully recommend her, your dog is in more than safe and capable hands Thank you

Tessa did a great job of looking after Eadie, great coms and super flexible when I needed to change timings at short notice. Will be booking with her again for sure.

Schedule

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.
