Pet care experience

Professional, experienced and caring boarder

I’ve looked after dogs of every kind for many years and had my own dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with large and small dogs of every breed, so I’m very hands on and experienced. I’ve bred my own dogs to a high health standard following strict regulations in order to protect the breed. I previously was the manager for a daycare centre for dogs and this consisted of me looking after various owners dogs on a daily basis for the full day. The dogs that came to our daycare were all of different breeds, different sizes and different ages. I also had many of these dogs board with me in my own home when owners required overnight stays. Nowadays I work from home and my partner also assists with dog boarding. We love to be out walking and doing anything outdoors. We live in a 3 bedroom house and have a secure back garden. We have no children. We can cater for any individual needs that your dog may have. When your pets are staying with us we want to make the environment as loving and cosy as possible. They will get plenty of attention, exercise and cuddles! Any normally routines that your dog has we’re more than to stick to. I have 10 acres of land near my home and these fields provide a safe, private environment for me to walk dogs, either on lead or off lead away from the distractions of other people and other dogs should your dog require a solo walk.

Tom was great with Lola. He gave us regular updates, pictures and videos during her stay and she made a new friend in Millie! Highly recommend and would use again

Tom is a very good host. Communicated well throughout the process. Coco was very comfortable during her stay at Tom's home. Tom kept sending me updates and her pictures. I will be using his service next time I am on a long holiday. Thank you Tom

Tom made our 7 month deerhound puppy very welcome and he settled very well. We appreciated the pics & videos, we could see our puppy enjoyed his walks and playing with the other dogs in the garden.

Our dog Willow absolutely loved her long weekend with Tom, so much so I don't think she wanted to come home! Tom updated us on her stay with pictures and video and safe to say she definitely made herself at home. I would definitely recommend Tom and we will certainly use him again if we need somewhere for her to stay

The 2 nights with Tom were the first time our puppy had stayed away from home. It was a very positive experience for Harris, Tom is very experienced, looking after dogs of different breeds and ages and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
