Loads of nice local walking areas, the main one is old town rec, where they'll get to play with other locals I'm a dog lover who works from home, so one more dog (I'll only have 1 more at a time), will be fine. It might get a bit spoilt. No unneurered dogs as it upsets my dog if they're not done. No dogs which are even slightly aggressive. Small and medium dogs only. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds, they'll be treated like our own.

About: We have always had dogs in the family so grew up up taking care of our family pets which continues to do this day looking after any of the family dogs, walking them, dog sitting etc. I always try my best to keep dogs entertained, active and with plenty of company (if they want it ofcourse!) I work Monday - Friday but spend a few of these days working from home. I am always off on the weekends so am always happy to lend a hand then! I have a spacious and cozy flat with space for the dog to feel at home and have a shared garden for the building. We have plenty of great spots nearby for walks!

We will definitely book Fletch into Sarahs care again. Thank you Sarah😍”
