Active Family with a Fox Red Lab!
Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based between Leeds and Manchester, sharing my home with my fox red Labrador, Callie, who is 2.5 years old and genuinely the perfect companion. Callie is incredibly friendly, well-socialised, and great with other dogs. She’s very intuitive—happy to play when others want to, but equally respectful of dogs who prefer their own space. Because of her calm and balanced nature, visiting dogs tend to settle in quickly and feel at home. I work from home full-time in an open-plan house, so your dog will always have company, supervision, and plenty of attention throughout the day—no long periods left alone. Our home is a relaxed, dog-friendly space where dogs are treated like part of the family. We’re lucky to have a fully enclosed garden with a secure double-gate system, so dogs can safely enjoy being outside whenever they like (weather permitting!). When it’s dry, they’re free to roam in and out as they please. Exercise is a big part of our routine. Callie gets three walks a day, usually up on the local moors and hills or along the canal—plenty of variety, fresh air, and stimulation. My wife, Lydia, is also a huge dog lover and often joins in, which means we can walk dogs separately if needed to suit their pace, personality, or training requirements. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos, messages, and reassurance while you’re away. If you’re looking for a safe, active, and loving home-from-home environment for your dog, I’d love to help. Feel free to get in touch with any questions!

Schedule
I work from home full time so am available for sitting any time. I’m out with our dog on walks twice a day so have no problem with walking responsibilities, and love a longer explore with the dog at the weekend.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully enclosed garden, and I work looking on to it, so am always paying attention to the dogs. Our home is very pet friendly, with laminate flooring and an open plan downstairs, so dogs can have space but also always be seen.

A typical day
I work from home, so I get up early for an hour walk (can be adjusted to be shorted or longer). I then start work, before doing a quick run around the block with the dog at lunchtime. I then do another walk after work (or sometimes my wife does), maybe for 45-60 mins. We then relax at home with the dog.
