“Excellent service, thanks Jamie.”


About: Your precious pet/s will be loved and cared for by me as I appreciate how special our pets are to us. I have been around dogs and other pets (inc. cats) for most of my life and love their companionship. I have recently relocated to the UK after residing in New Zealand for 20+ years (working as a teacher and running a dog home boarding service in the school holidays). I am in the lucky position to be able to offer my services as a dog homestay host or as a sitter in your home, dog walker and/or home pet visits. I have cared for many different breeds, ages and sizes of dogs. I love all the doggy cuddles; indeed, taking a dog for a walk, you could say, is one of my 'happy places.' I have included in my photos some of the reviews I received from many of my previous happy dog owners. The last dog I owned was a Cavoodle and he developed epilepsy at 5 years of age. I had to manage his condition for 6 years before he passed away. I am therefore used to administering medicine and adhering to a strict medicine regime (my dog had to have his meds at specific times throughout the day), and I have experience caring for dogs with specific needs. Importantly, I am qualified in dog psychology and training and used to take part in, and on several occasions ran, a dog agility class. I hold a level 3 Ofqual recognized certificate in canine behaviour and care in a home boarding environment. I am also trained in canine first aid. I offer a high standard of care and am happy to ensure that your pet remains calm and happy while I am responsible for them. A meet and greet is required before I accept a booking. If staying in my home your dog must be fully vaccinated and upto date with flea/worm treatments. I live in a smoke free home. For new clients- Before a stay of more than 2 nights a 1 night trial stay is required. When booking please be as accurate as possible with your drop off and pick up time. Home boarding/house sitting includes 2x daily walks (weather permitting). Daycare also includes a daily walk. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I am free to care for your pet throughout the day, 7 days a week. When boarding overnight your dog will follow its normal routines with regards to walks, play (enrichment activities) and feeding. I have a house with a fenced garden and your dog would be cared for as if it was at home. I would follow any instructions given with regard to the care of your pet.

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, my family always had a dog in the house. I would always help to feed or bathe and occasionally help on the vet visits. No job is too big or too small when it comes to caring for your pet or someone else's. I would treat all dogs as if they were my own as I know from personal experience that my dogs mean so much to me as they are my fur babies!! I'm currently a stay at home Mum, so I have plenty of free time to go on lots of long dog walks or just chill in the park. Occasionally, we may even meet up with some furry friends in the park or chase away the squirrels. Whichever the dog prefers! My 2 dogs are my fur babies and my absolute world, other than my daughter they are the most important things in my life. It's also important to build that trust and bond with other people's pets in order to provide a safe and calm environment for all, because a calm dog is a happy dog.

About: I have always had pets around myself and family I’ve even had chickens for several years. I often look after my family’s pets while they are on holiday. I am retired now and very active. As I am now retired I have plenty of time for pets I enjoy being active dog walking I live very close to a dog friendly beach and plenty of countryside walks I have a large house with 3 gardens. I am available to look after any of your pets. I enjoy dog walking your pets will be very safe in my care.

“I’m so happy with the care and skill with which Jane looked after my 2 cats during twice-daily drop-ins at home in Layton. She is experienced and thorough and I really felt that the cats were in good hands whilst I was away. I returned to happy, contented (and properly medicated) kitties and the whole process was seamless for them and me. Jane followed all my instructions and has a keen eye to notice if anything is wrong or needs any attention. Getting daily photos of the cats and updates from her was a delight! Thank you Jane, from Mel”

Sharnie M.
“This is the first time I have had to leave my Peanut and was a bit wary on getting someone he was not used to, to walk him. Sharnie assures me every step of the way that he was in safe hands and I couldn't have been happier. He was very smiley in the pictures and it looked like they had so much fun on their walk. Already scheduled a few walks over the next few weeks. Couldn't have asked for a more reliable and lovely person.”
