Doggy Day Care Buckland

“Shane is fantastic, I would have no hesitation leaving Hendrix in his care again. His gorgeous dog Moose is so friendly, relaxed and tolerant. Shane provided me with updates throughout the day and was flexible with pickup when I was running a little early. Hendrix came home knackered which I always think is a great sign of a fulfilling time. Thanks Shane, appreciate you!”

“Can’t recommend Victoria & family enough. We were visiting the area for a couple of nights & needed dog care for one of the days so we could explore without worrying about leaving Noodle alone all day. Victoria looked after Noodle very well, kept us updated & looks like he had a great time. Thank you ☺️”

“Hugo’s second stay, now building up to his first overnight stay to build his confidence away from us even further. Steve is a very knowledgeable dog minder and Hugo is obviously comfortable around Steve.”

“Helen and her husband looked after our 4-month-old cocker spaniel, Arlo. I couldn’t recommend them enough, Arlo had a great time and came home well-exercised and happy! They provided us with updates throughout the day to ease our worries about leaving him with someone for the first time. Arlo will certainly be visiting again soon! Thank you very much ??”

About: I offer a highly versatile, confident, and reliable approach to pet care. My experience spans the entire spectrum of the canine world, meaning your dog—no matter their size or personality—will be in expert hands. ❄️ Arctic Sled Dog & Pack Experience I have unique, hands-on experience managing a pack of working Huskies during a sledding expedition in the Arctic Circle of Sweden. This involved looking after my own team and assisting with the wider pack in extreme conditions—handling everything from feeding and harness management to understanding complex pack dynamics and high-energy behavior. 🏡 Gentle Care for Smaller Breeds While I'm entirely confident with large, high-energy breeds, I am equally experienced in providing the gentle, attentive care required for smaller dogs. I have extensive experience looking after two small dogs, meaning I completely understand the finer details of small-dog care—from keeping a watchful eye on them around bigger dogs to managing their specific exercise routines and making sure they feel safe, cozy, and thoroughly pampered. Whether your dog needs a high-energy handler who can match their stamina, or a calm, comforting companion for cuddles and structured routines, I adapt perfectly to what they need. As a part-time personal trainer, my schedule is incredibly flexible, leaving me with plenty of free time throughout the week to dedicate to your pets. Because fitness is my job, I have the stamina and energy for long, active walks, making me the perfect fit for high-energy dogs who love to explore and burn off energy! I can easily structure my day around your dog's specific routine, feeding times, and exercise needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I treat their property and their routine with the utmost respect, ensuring doors are locked, feeding schedules are met precisely, and the environment remains calm. On walks, my background as a fitness professional means I am alert, physically strong enough to handle large or pulling dogs safely on a lead, and fully focused on keeping your dog secure and happy at all times.

“We were a little anxious as our German Shepherd / Border Collie as he can be reactive and picky with the people he likes. He either loves you or wants to eat you. Mark suggested a pre meet and from the moment we stepped into his house we needn't of worried. Dexter instantly made new friends. On the day, Mark sent us pictures to keep us updated and showed us that he was not stressed or miss behaving and looking very chilled and relaxed. Thank you Mark”

About: I have been fostering dogs, old, young, and sick for 5 years. We adopted our lurcher 2 years ago. He is a playful 2 year old, so I need to use treats/ and discipline quite a lot. I have had dogs growing up, and just love to be around all types of dog. I’m at home most of the time. Not currently back at work after maternity leave. I take my dog out at least once a day. So can fit something in most days! I have a fully fenced garden and gate. The house is open plan, however if you need your dog cornered off or my dog cornered off we have baby gates everywhere to help with that.

“Allegra had a wonderful time! Great updates and communication from Sophie. Will definitely rebook in the future.”

“Alfie instantly warmed to Isabelle and she took great care of him for the day! When we picked him up he was happy and relaxed after a day of nice long walks and lots of attention. Isabelle was a pleasure to meet and we would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter in the area.”

About: Hello my name is Anna, look forward to meeting you I love animals and have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages, sizes and care needs. Have been around and looked after family pets from a young age and know what it takes to care for your pet. I grew up with dogs, hamsters and guinea pigs and regulary visited my auntie and grandparents who had cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. Ive looked after many neighbours and friends pets over the years. And was devoted to my nans miniture schnauzer, walking and caring for her on a regular basis. Happy to do both cat and dog sitting. I live close to a local park, which is dog friendly and great for them to stretch their legs and take in the smells. I am very active and love a good walk. Please feel free to message me for a chat, and get too know each other. I will do my best to accomidate you and your pets and happy to meet up beforehand to see if its a good fit.

I am very kind and caring and would love to look after your pets

“Holly had the best time with Olivia. Olivia gave her a great day outside and plenty of fun activities. Holly is a shy dog, but by the end of the day, Olivia won her trust to the point of getting some cuddles!”

About: Both Tom and I have been around dogs all our lives and absolutely adore them. We live with our 2 lurchers, Lionel and Bodhi in Folkestone. I have a qualification in Pet First Aid and Dog CPR, and experienced in administering injectable medications. I am fully insured by Protectivity. We have extensive experience with senior dog care, sighthounds, and are used to looking after dogs of all sizes and personalities. We are fortunate to live in close proximity to the Kent Downs, and the beautiful Kent countryside, near lots of woods and walking distance to the coast. We love to get out in the fresh air as much as possible and would welcome your furry friends to come with us. There are also plenty of dog parks near our house, and we have booked private fields for dogs in our care, so they can really have a good run and play off lead. We only take up to two dogs at a time, as long to ensure they get sufficient supervision and snuggles. Walks can be solo or with our boys (who walk very well on lead). Lionel and Bodhi are very loving, friendly boys, with very different characters! Lionel loves everyone and wants to play. Bodhi is more laidback and is happy to watch playtime from the sofa! Both are good at sharing toys and snuggling. As with most sighthounds, after a short burst of energy, they love to snuggle up for the next few hours! Caring for animals is my priority, dog sitting and walking is my full-time focus. I live with my husband, who mostly works from home and has a flexible schedule. Depending on your preference, we can either go out together on group walks with our dogs (2 adults, plus one or two of our dogs, with your dog), or I can take your dog(s) on a solo walk. Whatever works best for your dog. Your dog will be with humans the majority of the time they are here, receiving love, care and attention. A typical day for us, We usually wake around 6am, have cuddles with our dogs and feed them their breakfast. Then we head out for our early morning walk (usually 1 - 2 hours). After that our boys tend to sleep til lunch time. We usually have then playtime, followed by more napping. We then take a second walk before or after their tea. Then toy time and tucked in bed around 9pm. As we have 2 lurchers our garden is very secure with high fences. There are comfy sofas in both rooms on the ground floor, plus dog beds, plenty of room to relax. If you like your dogs to be crated at night, there is room to add these. Our dogs sleep in one room, your dogs would have their own doggy bedroom (ground floor). We also have a room on the first floor for dogs that need a snug quiet space of their own.

“Very caring and flexible - thank you”

“I was very lucky to find Christine and that she was available to look after Lollie. It was short notice and really helped me out whilst I attended a funeral & family gathering. Lollie can be sensitive but I knew immediately Christine and her husband would be kind and gentle with her. Lollie was as happy as I’ve seen her going to someone she doesn’t know. Photos of Lollie were sent to reassure she was absolutely fine. Thank you so much.”
