About: I have cared for animals from the age of 11, when my parents set up boarding kennels, I lived and breathed the company of the dogs we cared for. As well as many years experience working at the kennels, I am always first choice for friends and family who need pet care or walks whether they are at work, going on holiday or just too busy that particular day. They all know I prefer animals over humans and don’t take it personally! I’m currently taking a break from work and can look after your fur babies every day and overnight if required, either at my home or theirs. I am available for walks every day or even just company and belly rubs if that’s all your baby needs. I have a private fenced garden and your pets will be in the safest hands. I have a 3 year old Labrador who could be great company for your fur baby, Willow loves to swim at any opportunity and run in the fields, rain or shine, day or night and sometimes all day!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old, and have cared for them from puppies to elderly! I now have my own place and waiting to get our own pooch when the time is right! I have had border terriers and cockerpoos for 24 years since growing up but have now moved into my own place with my partner who also has had his own pets! I have experience of taking care of a range of different breeds and temperaments of dogs that my friends and family own so happy to discuss your dogs needs in more detail! I’m available to provide your 4 legged friend with the love and attention when you might be busy with work or holidays or any other responsibilities! I currently work full time for the NHS but do a lot of flexible working from home or local visits, I am available flexibly week days depending on work and on long weekends! I have a very flexible job Monday- Friday 9-5 and I can work from home when needed, allowing to balance time for your pooch very easily! My garden is fully enclosed and fenced with no public access and we are close to lots of different types of walks. I have a secure enclosed garden and 3 bedroom home that is surrounded by fences and have a car so I am able to travel when required :)

Experienced with crating if necessary, happy to cuddle as much as possible, but also know when to give space.

About: Growing up I have always had pets, dogs and cats. Breeds we have had include springer spaniels, jack russell terriers, border collies, german shepherds and yorkshire terriers. As an adult I have had 2 hungarian vizslas with a previous partner so I am well versed in active breeds. I had my vizslas from puppies so I have experience of those demands and training them. I now only have one of those vizslas, nearly 2 year old Finn so any requests will need to bear this in mind. He is friendly with dogs and people but he is active and loves to play. I have a flexible job, it is 9-5 monday to friday but I can work from home when I want to, subject to appointments. I don't have fixed days or times at home but I can balance the care of my dog easily. I can return home after appointments which are normally only an hour or two so your pets won't be left long. I have a fully enclosed back garden with no public access to the back- I have a side passage with two locked doors leading to the back garden and the fences are 5ft and in good condition so your pets will be safe and secure. I can shut off access to different areas of the house as well if your pets need to be contained whilst alone. I am happy to use a crate if that's what you prefer.

About: I used to take care of family members dogs when away and for the past 6 years I’ve worked as a dog groomer so I’ve had plenty experience with a variety of different breeds and temperaments. I only work 7 hour days 4 days a week so I’ll have 3 days to look after your dogs as well as any time I have free after my work. Unfortunately I cannot care for a dog at my own home as my dog isn’t great with others, but I’ll ensure to follow any rules you have at your home with your dog to keep you and your dog happy.

About: I have had a rescue dog for 13 years and another dog from a puppy for 2 years. They are both loved and cherished, and your pet would be treated exactly the same. I also have experience working with animals at animal charities for the last 11 years and looking after friends' dogs frequently too. I work part time 3 days a week so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am happy to have them in my home as long as they fit in with my pets and kids, or I can come to your home if preferred. I have a fully fenced back garden and a very easygoing labradoodle who would like to play if your dog wants to, but is happy to give space if your dog prefers. The other dog and cat are very old and sleep a lot! I am fit and active so happy to give long walks if wanted.

About: I have loved dogs since day one, growing up we had two Labradors, one of which was a rescue. My mum also added a little Westie to the gang, so along with 3 cats, it was quite a busy household! I developed a deep love and understanding of their unique personalities and needs. Now, as the proud owner with my wife of three wonderful dogs, two of which are rescue Thai street dogs and my mums Bedlington Terrier following her passing last year. One of the rescue dogs is reactive to other dogs so I bring a hands-on experience in handling a variety of temperaments with patience and care. Whether it’s providing a calming presence for anxious pups or ensuring playful companions get the exercise they need, I’m committed to creating a safe, happy environment for every dog I care for. I would be delighted to care for your dog, if you're happy for me to help, please pop me a message! I currently work part time, mostly in the afternoons so I'm free most weekday mornings up until 1pm. There might be occasions where I can commit to afternoons so it's always worth sending me a message and I'll come back to you with my availability. Due to one of our dogs being reactive, we wouldn't be able to accommodate dogs at our house at the moment, which is a shame as we would love to as we have a fenced garden where they can run around! I'm very careful and attentive when walking our dogs and very mindful of other dogs. As mentioned above, as one of our dogs is reactive, we make sure that both our dog and any other dogs we encounter are safe.

Rececca D is a wonderful person who is really good friends with my wife. She often comes to ours, bringing her beautiful black labrador, Willow. Rebecca D thinks the absolute world of Willow, and I would trust her completely to look after any pet of mine. You can tell that Willow is devoted to Rebecca and this is because of the way Rebecca has treated her since she was a puppy. She will be fantastic at caring for your pet.

Alice is my cocker spaniels favourite person! She is always happy to see him and always gives him the best attention and snuggles! She is so caring and loving with all dogs and I would trust her with my dog any day! She takes him on the best walks and makes sure he's enjoying it at all times. Cody also says she gives the best belly scratches! She is very reliable and I could not think of anyone better to trust with your pets.
