Ratings and reviews
Ruby had a lovely time with Therese once they got used to one another. Ruby is a young and busy (typical!) spaniel and I think Therese found her a bit challenging to start with, but they settled into a routine over the 3 days and Therese appeared to really warm to Ruby. Therese took Ruby on lots of lovely long walks and gave her plenty of fuss and cuddles. All in all things worked out really well from my point of view and I was really happy with the care that Therese gave Ruby. Thank you Therese!
Wow! What can I say about Logan’s new pal Therese. We are all so grateful for having a mini break without worrying about my baby boy 💙🐶 Logan was so happy when I collected him and I could see the bond he had made with Therese - he had so many cuddles, lots of walks, playing with his football, kept cool in the hot weather and was spoilt with salmon and duck pate ☺️ This was my first time leaving Logan but Therese put my mind at ease with regular updates and pictures - I can honestly say we will be booking Therese again! Logan has made a real good pal 💙🐶 Thank you Therese - see you soon xx
Leaving Stella with anyone is a big deal for me – she really is my third child! From the moment Stella stayed with Therese, I knew she was in the very best hands. Therese is one of the kindest and gentlest people I have met, and her previous experience of owning a Maltipoo means she understands Stella’s little quirks and personality almost as well as I do. So often, she instinctively knows exactly what Stella needs without me even having to explain. Stella absolutely adores Therese, and it’s easy to see why. Her beautiful home and surroundings provide the perfect setting for a doggy holiday, with plenty of lovely walks and adventures. I also have complete confidence in Therese’s ability to handle Stella off the lead, knowing she’ll be safely enjoying one of her favourite activities – chasing and catching a ball. Like many Maltipoos, Stella can be quite particular when it comes to food, but Therese always caters to her needs, whether through careful instructions or simply her natural understanding of her. I even love that Stella is allowed to choose where she’d like to sleep – just as she does at home. The greatest compliment I can give Therese is that staying with her feels like a true home from home for Stella. She is loved, cared for, understood and completely spoiled. Knowing Stella is with someone who loves her almost as much as I do gives me total peace of mind whenever I’m away. I couldn’t recommend Therese highly enough. Anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable and trustworthy home-from-home experience for their dog would be incredibly lucky to find her.
Therese took wonderful care of my dog, Clemmie, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Clemmie enjoyed some lovely walks, and it was clear she was happy, comfortable, and well looked after throughout her stay. I received regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to see how much fun she was having. I was so pleased to know that Clemmie had been taken such good care of, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Therese to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
I have no hesitation in recommending Therese as someone who would provide exceptionally safe, loving care to any pet. I have personally seen the wonderful care she gave to her own dog, Snowy, as well as to my dog, Bob. Both absolutely adored her. Therese treats pets with affection and responsibility. She brings kindness to everything she does, and I would trust her completely with any beloved pet.

Schedule
I have decades of experience looking after and owning dogs. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to look after your dog if you're away for a weekend or need help during the day and in the evening. I also care for dogs if you are off on holiday. They will be looked after by me in a calm, loving home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden with lots of space for your dog to roam. Walks with your dog are in the fields opposite our house.
A typical day
I'll feed your dog first thing, and then we'll pop out into the fields in front of my house and walk through the apple orchards and by the brook. Alternatively, we might go up the Malvern Hills. Your dog will get lots of opportunities to play, whether it's throwing a ball or a tummy tickle! At the end of the day, we will head out for a walk, play, get some food and then might snuggle up and watch a movie :-)

- Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medical requirements, or particular behaviours I should be aware of. I also tend to prefer breeds that are generally well behaved, have good recall, and walk well on a lead.
