About: Both me and my partner have grown up with dogs all our lives but since our family puppy, Rex, passed away last Christmas we haven’t had the chance to adopt another dog of our own but we miss having a little fur baby around the house. We have 4 young children who both equally love dogs just as much as we do, our eldest loves to play with dogs and loves going to his grandparents to play with their new puppy. I’m fully flexible due to being a stay at home mum and my partner is available some days throughout the week to help out when he’s not working. We live quite close to a big park so we can provide the sufficient amount of exercise your dog requires I’m currently a stay at home mum so rest assured your fur baby will be in great hands and will always have someone around for a cuddle and to give him/her the care they need throughout the day. We have a fully fenced in garden so your little pup will be safe at all times. We also are able to crate train if needed as this is something we’re fully knowledgable about as we used to do this with our own puppy.

“Really lovely lady!!! So happy to have my dog Betty when she can be unpredictable in new situations. Marissa constantly updated me while I was away with reports and photos and made me feel very certain I had left my dog with such a caring person and family while I was away. I was told when my blog Betty was dropped off every morning she was so eager to run to Marissa and so eager to get inside and play!! Would definitely recommend and definitely be booking again xx”

About: I have a little pet care experience, watching over my friends cats Nelson and Dorito for a couple times. My family also had a German shepherd I used to look after. Fury friends always make me smile whenever I see them on the walk, and I dream about the day we’re going to welcome a dog to our home as well. I’m currently taking some time off work, so available most of the time during week and weekends as well, so gladly spend some quality time looking after your loved ones. I don’t have any pets, but your dog is going to be very loved by my family who adore pets as much as I do, if you need an over night stay.


7. Savannah C.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my family and had the responsibility of caring for them. More recently I have owned my 1 year old Moose for nearly a year. I regularly look after my friend’s dogs if they go away and I really do care for them like they’re my own. I currently work from home most days allowing me freedom and flexibility to work around your pups. Having a dog of my own already gives me the ability to care and provide for pups whilst working. I have a large secure garden with grass for pups to play. My house is three stories and pups are allowed to venture wherever they wish.


8. Laura M.

“Laura was so lovely and really took amazing care of Mowgli. I got lots of updates from his day at Laura's and he was shattered when he got home, so I know that means he had a great time. I will definitely be using Laura again soon ?”


9. Alannah B.
About: From a family of dog lovers - I am the designated dog sitter! From small to large breeds, I have experience and am very comfortable in caring for all. I currently work flexibly so can be available to care for your loved ones at home whilst I’m working at home - or on weekends for complete devotion! My job is very relaxed so walks and breaks will be a plenty during the day. I have a private and gated garden, based on a quiet cul-de-sac. Dogs are welcome to roam my house and garden freely - a home away from home!


10. Hannah W.

“Hector spent a happy morning with Hannah. All messages received a quick response. I would be pleased to leave Hector at Hannah's house in the future.”


11. Millie H.

“Obie has been to Millie’s twice now and really loves it there. When we pull up outside Obie scrambles as the car window in excitement. Millie looks after Obie well and is attentive to her needs and the situation on the day. I am disabled and would struggle to get out of the car to a front door so Millie has been really accommodating by coming out and taking Obie from the car. Will carry on using and recommend!”


12. Jane H.
“My puppy Albus the cockapoo loved Tails and trails so much he ended up never leaving. He loved going on adventures to new places like the beach and different mountains. He loves playing with other dogs and is Jane’s little shadow. Jane makes any dog feel comfortable and she will treat them like her own. Couldn’t recommend anyone more capable of looking after your four legged family members.”

17. Ebony R.
About: We currently have our beautiful girl Lucy and have taken care of dogs for as long as we can remember. There has always been a dog in our lives growing up. We am often relied on to walk, feed and look after pets of neighbours, friends and family members. We are responsible, hardworking and active people. So if a pet was to stay with us it would be given lots of walks, plenty of love and would be one of the family. We also have experience in caring for puppies so I am more than happy to cater to their needs. If your pet isn’t pet friendly it is possible Lucy is able to stay with my parents temporarily so isn’t an issue. I currently work 6 on 4 off so on my days off I would have plenty of time to care for and walk dogs. In addition to that my partner also works from home which can be flexible depending on the animals needs so we can work around you. I have a fenced back yard and a big field next to our house. We also have a baby gate if the pet needed to be restricted to downstairs area only. I have a car which would allow us to take the pet on a walk further away from home and there is the option of pet collection if required and not too far.

“Jade has looked after our old dog Gunner, a Staffordshire bull terrier countless times when I was at work and also Harry the cat. She is very good with animals and sticks with their schedule. Also over the years of her owning her own dog solemnly, I’ve seen how great of a dog trainer she is too! She took Yura her dog to a puppy foundation course for 1 day a week for a few months and then she did the same with the rookie dog course by best behaviour K9.”
