“Charlotte looked after my nervous boy Ozzy, I couldn’t have been happier with how he was looked after. Charlotte made sure he had plenty of toilet breaks and play time. Ozzy settled eventually and I couldn’t be more grateful for how he was looked after. Thankyou Charlotte ❤️”

About: I own and run Molly’s Dachshund Club: specialist home-from-home day care and overnight boarding, exclusively for dachshunds. This is not generic dog boarding, it is breed-specific care designed around the unique needs, quirks and wellbeing of miniature and standard sausage dogs. We are fully licensed, fully insured, trained in canine first aid, and operate to professional standards with documented care procedures, emergency protocols and welfare-focused policies in place, so you can feel confident your dog is in safe, capable hands. I run Molly Walks Club, a free dachshund walking community, and host The Dachshund Clinic podcast, where I share insights around dachshund health, behaviour and wellbeing. My background in behavioural training means I understand how to work with nervous, excitable, stubborn, sensitive and strong-willed dachshunds in a calm, confident and supportive way. Because I run my businesses from home, your dog is never left in a busy kennel environment or with minimal supervision. They enjoy constant companionship, structured care and a calm, cosy home environment designed with dachshunds in mind, including ramps for little legs, quiet rest spaces and plenty of comfort. Our resident dachshund, Molly, is the self-appointed CEO of the household and an excellent hostess. She is incredibly social and particularly brilliant at helping nervous or unsure dogs settle in, often gently guiding them into the pack and helping them feel safe. Every stay includes tailored countryside walks designed for dachshunds. We focus on safe exploration, enrichment, confidence building and appropriate exercise rather than exhausting long-distance walks. Quiet woodland trails, countryside routes and plenty of sniffing opportunities are all part of the experience. Animals have always been part of my life, with over thirty years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I volunteered at a veterinary practice when I was young for six years, giving me additional practical grounding in animal care and welfare. For dachshunds with IVDD or additional support needs, I also offer respite care where appropriate. If your dog needs extra care, just let me know so we can make sure the right support is in place. Safe care. Specialist understanding. Happy dachshunds. Peace of mind for owners. 🐾 Key Business Details 4-Star Council Licensed Home Boarding & Day Care Fully Insured Canine First Aid Qualified I work from home and my own dachshund, Molly, is the centre of my world. My day is already structured around her needs, so caring for other daxies simply becomes part of that same rhythm. Mornings usually start with breakfast and a 30-min walk where the little legs can explore, sniff and move at a relaxed pace. The rest of the day is a mix of companionship, playtime, enrichment, naps and garden breaks, with the dogs always nearby while I work. Because I am home throughout the day, the dogs are never left alone and get plenty of attention, reassurance and supervision. The routine is calm and predictable, which dachshunds tend to respond to really well. Late afternoons and evenings are relaxed with a longer walk, usually at a woodlands, and garden time, followed by cosy downtime in the house. It is very much a home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family rather than being kept in a kennel style setting. Dogs staying with me are cared for as part of the household. They stay inside the home with plenty of cosy spaces to rest, relax and feel safe, and I keep the number of dogs small so everyone gets proper attention and supervision. Because I work from home, the dogs are not left alone and are always nearby throughout the day. I pay close attention to each dog's temperament, energy level and comfort so they settle in at their own pace. Some dachshunds are confident straight away, while others need a little more time, and that is completely fine. My own dachshund Molly plays a big role in helping visiting dogs feel comfortable. She is very social and particularly good with nervous dogs, often helping them settle into the pack naturally. Walks are done in quiet woodland or countryside areas where the environment is calm and safe for dachshunds. I always prioritise slow paced walks suitable for little legs and make sure dogs are secure and supervised at all times. We will work up to off-lead walks, and I will keep your babies on-lead until we are both comfortable with being off-lead. Once they are off lead, they naturally move in a pack, which means that they stick together. Molly's recall is great, so if I need them back close to me, they will all come together. Having grown up with animals and spent time volunteering in a veterinary clinic when I was younger, I am also comfortable recognising when a dog may be stressed, uncomfortable or unwell. I have a good understanding of basic dog first aid and always prioritise the wellbeing, safety and happiness of every dog in my care.

About: I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Jack Russell's to border Collies. In recent years I've looked after dogs for friends and family. I have experience with puppies, dogs with arthritis (requiring pushing in a pram), dogs on restricted diets, administering medication and of course lots of cuddles and walks if welcomed! I work from home full time so my schedule is completely free and flexible for regular walks and toilets breaks. It's unlikely your pet will be left on their own. I live with my parents who are also dog friendly, they aren't home during the day but are around in the evening, so plenty of company if your pet wants it! Equally, the house is big enough that they can have some alone time if thats their preference. I have a medium sized enclosed and secure garden. In the summer the door can be left open for pets to come and go as they please. For boarding requests, I live with my own dog (Otis) who is a 10-year old French basset cross. He's friendly (if uninterested) in other dogs. We can introduce your pet to Otis at the meet and greet and ensure they get on. Otis is used to having other dogs stay and is very chill. He is neutered.

“Looked after Rosie well, plenty of updates and photos”

“Jane was absolutely fantastic with our dogs. She is a very kind and caring person, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. Our dogs stayed with her for two days, and the best proof of how happy they were is that on the second day they were excited to go back to her again. They looked relaxed, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay. I would highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. The happiness and excitement of our dogs says it all. Thank you, Jane!”

“First doggie daycare for Dickie with Annabel and we couldn’t be happier. Looking forward to making many more bookings. Thanks for a great experience, Annabel 😊”

“It was obvious Miguel had an amazing time with Becky from the way he has been so chill coming home but also the way he was leaning against her and wanting a fuss when we were leaving! Becky was excellent at communicating on Miguel and we felt totally at ease to leave him to have a doggy daycare. Thanks so much again Becky and we will all look forward to seeing you again 🥰”

About: I have grown up with and always loved animals. I regularly look after dogs of varying breeds (and personalities) for friends and family which I absolutely love. My experience varies from stubborn Huskies to yappy Jack Russel's to needy Siamese cats while also loving my own boisterous Labrador. This also varies in age, from my own 1 year old Labrador who we have had since a puppy, to more senior dogs who prefer a slower pace of life. I am understanding of the fact that different breeds and ages have different needs and requirements when it comes to daily care and I am always happy to incorporate this into their daily routine. Please feel free to message me for anymore information or any questions you may have. I currently work from home on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so will be around all day. I have a Labrador of my own, so we are in the routine of letting the dog out regularly, providing two walks a day and doing regular check ins to make sure there is plenty of water and all needs are met. Our garden is fully enclosed so the dogs are able to venture in and out as they please. My Labrador is still crated at night, however if your dog does not require crating this is fine. During the day, you dog will never be left for more than two hours. They layout of our house is slightly different, with the living area being on the first floor. This may not always be the best for more senior dogs. If there is any issues with this then please let me know.

“After a meet and greet with our dog Murphy and Caroline's dogs we were happy to have her look after him. We were kept updated with photos and it was good to see him playing with her dogs and enjoying himself. We wouldn't hesitate to have Caroline look after him again.”

“Simon was great with Molly. His place has great space for dogs and she was very happy there. Has returned suitably tired, always the sign of a good day. He definitely loves dogs. Molly will be back. Would recommend. It was lovely to get photos through the day of what she was up to. Thanks Simon!”

“Couldn’t be happier with the care Evelina provided to my 4 month old pup Ziggy! I was a bit nervous as this would be the first time Ziggy was away from home but Evelina was very accommodating and made me feel at ease straight away - meeting us before looking after him and taking the time to ask about and understand his specific needs. I’ve since left my puppy with Evelina a number of times and continue to do so. I really appreciate the regular updates throughout the day and pictures/videos of how Ziggy is getting on. Hacker is a wonderful dog and is also sooo great with Ziggy. I would highly recommend Evelina :)”

“Pog was so happy to spend the day with Hayley. She always looks after him really well and took him out on 2 walks during the day.”

About: My aim is to make sure your dog is happy, loved, entertained, walked and fed in the same way as if they were at home. I work from home so am here all day to look after your dog as I do my own gorgeous golden retriever, Stan. I wake up early (06:30) to say hi, provide breakfast, and let Stan and your lovely dog out in our safe garden followed by a cuddle. Then we’re out for a walk in the lovely open spaces on our doorstep. If it’s the weekend - and your dog is keen - we’ll go to the beach for a swim or paddle! Otherwise happy to stick to our lovely countryside walks :) Chill time then playtime in the garden followed by another walk later. Then dinner and an evening play and chill whilst we cook dinner and relax at home with Stan and his pal :) I have my own 7 year old golden retriever, Stan who is very chilled and gets on with all dogs and humans! We have a spacious home with a fenced garden. There are lots of lovely walks on our doorstep and we like to go to the beach for a swim or paddle too! Stan is my third child! I have two grown up kids at uni. Freddie, 22 and Poppy 20. I will look after your dog as if he were part of our family.
