Pet care experience

Life long dog owner.

I have had dogs throughout my childhood and adult life. I come from a family of dog lovers! I have experience of both puppies and senior dogs and I am at home everyday. I have two lovely dogs myself, Percy and Marshall, who are extremely chilled and friendly with other dogs. I live 15 minutes from Gatwick and live up a driveway off the road so your drop off and pick ups will be safe and hassle free.

Vanessa is a great and ovely dog carer, the drop off went really well, she sorted Milo sleeping bed next to her two lovely dogs and made Milo feel welcomed straight away and totallyat home! She kept us informed every day of Milo’s days with cute photos and videos and reassured us he was doing great. We will definitely use Vanessa again thank you for taking care of our little rascal and making him one of the family!

Ness has cared for our two dogs a number of times. She has built a marvellous rapport with them and always cares for them wonderfully. Providing regular walks and lots of love so they always come home happy and relaxed. Her two dogs: Percy and Marshall, have been great with ours, helping our puppies social skills. I can’t recommend Ness highly enough!

Vanessa has looked after our dog, Basil on several occasions. He is always looked after as if he was one of the family and all his individual needs are catered to perfectly. With a lovely big, secure garden, easy access to woodland walks and friendly human and canine companions, Basil enjoys his stays immensely. I trust Vanessa 100% with our doggy baby and would absolutely recommend.

Schedule

I share my home with my partner Howard. I am at home every day and can offer your dog at least one walk across fields and in woodland, directly from my garden. Your dog will be able to come and go as they please, spending as much time in the garden as they like. I let the dogs out for a toilet break at about 6am, and they have a morning walk at about 9am. I will sometimes be able to walk again mid afternoon but will also offer regular time in the garden enabling your dogs to play and explore to their hearts content.

Safety, trust & environment

My large garden is fully and securely fenced. My own two dogs are very friendly and calm and are used to sharing their home with other dogs- I have lots of dogs within my extended family. Your dog can be crated at night, if preferred, using their own bedding. But above all, I will treat your dog as if they were part of the family. I will send you regular photo updates.

Pets

A typical day

My garden is big so I have plenty of space for games and fun. My two boys love to have a regular trip to the beach, so we may be sending you some seaside photos!

Please let me know if your dog needs any special requirements in terms of exercise or just those special things to make them feel at home. Please bring their own bedding and food, in my experience, this helps them to settle and feel at ease.
