About: Having lived on a farm, and owning various breeds of dogs from a small boy. I have plenty of experience to care for your furry family member Pet care is my full time passion, so I am available 7 days a week for boarding, and i have plenty of time for walks, play and sofa chills. I have a fenced secure back yard, with ample fields surrounding for countryside walks and river swimming. Your Pet will be accompanied by my 2 dogs Bonnie (Springer Spaniel) & Eric (Old Tyme Dorest Bulldog), both very loving and friendly. Available for home drop ins too.

About: I am a huge animal lover and have cared for various pets since childhood including dogs. I am well versed in obedience training, leash training, bathing, general safety, and puppy care. I am a freelance home worker so I'm very flexible throughout the week. I walk my own dog in the morning and late evening but I am available throughout the day at times to suit. I have two fenced and secure gardens, front and rear, with security cameras. Pets are NEVER left unattended. Toys and games aplenty for stimulation. I use compostable poop bags and grain free, hypoallergenic treats at your discretion :)

“Emma was amazing, sent us updates and photos and took great care of my nervous cat, I felt like I could enjoy my weekend away knowing she was taking good care of him! Would definitely recommend her!”


“Absolutely top notch. Matthew has been amazing. He's done drop off visits for my cat Chester while we were on holiday and I couldn't believe how comfortable Chester was with him. Chester is very suspicious of strangers and he gets stressed easily. After just a couple of days he started waiting for Matthew to arrive, greeting him at the door, letting him pet him, and even playing with him. He gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn't recommend him more.”


About: Since I’ve been born I’ve always been around animals, that being dog and cats.

Whether it’s cat cuddles, feeding routines, fish tank care or peaceful dog walks, I care for every animal as if they were my own. I work part-time a couple of nights a week, so I’m always available during the mornings and daytime for calm dog walks, pet sitting, or drop-in visits.
