Dog Boarding, Walkies & Doggy entertainment!

Pet care experience

I love dogs and have grown up with a variety of breeds each with their own personality & temperament. I'm extremely energetic so rest assured that we will be going on long walks (1.5 hours minimum/ walk 2 shorter) to the local heath extension (20 min walk away). This walk can be extended to the sprawling Hampstead heath and miles of woodland. Walks are shorter if the breed requires less exercise. The beautiful heath extension has vast open spaces with lots of dogs giving your pooch time to socialise as well. I hope to give dogs as much exercise they can get with long walks and energetic activities, at the end of the day they say a tired dog is a happy dog! I'm very relaxed with dogs in my room and sitting on my bed, and as I work from home they will always be near me as well as access to a large safely fenced garden . They can choose to sleep in my room or another space in house. The house has two floors which they’ll be able to move around throughout. Dog bathing, washing and general up-keep are all included in the prices listed. I am flexible with time and recognize the importance of routine in a dogs day whether they are with me for short or long stay. I can provide cuddles, belly rubs and walks throughout the day. I aim for consistency and routine to provide dogs with a sense of security and comfort.

Our Rottweiler had a great stay with Viv and he came back happy and tired out. Viv is super friendly and helpful and will take the time to learn about your dogs needs/ quirks. I would highly recommend Viv to anyone looking for a sitter, especially if you have a larger dog that needs someone confident and assertive.

Viv was wonderful, looking after our little Peanut (a labrador puppy) over the Christmas break and making sure he got lots of exercise, ate well and had a great time. He was sad to leave, bless him! Would recommend Viv to anyone looking for a friendly, reliable dog boarder.

An absolute godsend ! Viv walked our dogs so well, was very friendly and was someone very trustworthy. She had a calm yet assertive manner with our dog and he loved her from the first day.

Kindle & Limbic had a 4 night stay with Viv. Viv’s attention to detail and highly intuitive approach was impressive and reassuring from our first meeting. Both dogs were thoroughly exercised and stimulated with both human and doggy company. We returned to find 2 very content dogs who didn’t seem to be in a hurry to return home. We would highly recommend Viv and she will be our future “goto” dog sitter. Tks Viv - excellent service.

Information Viv G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours that I can account for, so I can meet them feel at home.

A typical day

Playtime is split across the day, after a walk and rest, with fetch in the garden, chews and toys in the front room. Walking and meeting other dogs is important, and am open to new areas/parks/walks for new sniffs and adventures.
