Doggy Day Care Fairlop

About: Hi there! I’m a postgraduate student in psychology with a deep passion for animal care and behavior. Having cared for my own Golden Retriever, Nacho, for over seven years, I am very experienced in the day-to-day routines of dog care. Beyond caring for my own dog, I regularly pet-sit and walk dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, handling dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I work flexibly at the moment, which allows me to give your dog my full attention. I typically do 30 to 60-minute walks, taking full advantage of a great park just 10 minutes from my place, and I’ll happily send photo updates if you wish to know how your pup is doing! (Note: Since Nacho lives with me, any dogs coming to my home for care or visits must be comfortable living alongside another dog!) I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog the care and companionship they deserve. My own dog is among the highlights of my daily life, so I always ensure she’s had her fill of fun each day. I’m currently in the process of finishing up my dissertation, so I have a very free and flexible schedule that allows me to easily house and give proper care to our fuzzy friends. I have a fenced garden, and a perfect golden retriever therapy dog to accompany your pet. Chances are, we already have a lot of tools and toys for your dog to enjoy, and my family are also present and happy to spend time with them.

“I couldn't be happier with the care my 4-month-old Frenchie received! Leaving a young puppy can be stressful, but I was kept reassured with regular, lovely updates throughout the day. They were incredibly understanding of a puppy's specific needs and routines. Highly recommend, and will definitely be booking again! Thank you Danielle and Andrew”

“My pup is a mummy's boy and can make a fuss when I leave, but Madalina is a so patient and is able to distracts him that he soon stops fussing. Sonney wagging tail is a true indicator that he is content in Madalina company and enjoys his time with her :-)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and rabbits of every kind since I was 3. I loved my pets so much. I had a kitty with diabetes so I am experienced in managing diabetes and doing insulin injections if needed. I can also measure your pet's blood glucose level. I am free in the evenings and during weekends. I can also consider looking after your pet during the day as I work from home. I have a fenced garden and two parks nearby where I will be taking your dogs for a walk. We live in a nice area with lovely neighbours. I work mainly from home so I will have plenty of time to look after and play with your fur babies. I love keeping active myself so can guarantee walks twice a day minimum :) I have a fenced garden and toys to keep your fur baby entertained. I can easily crate your your dog if needed. I will treat your pet like my own. I feed pets as instructed by their owners, ensure daily exercise and attention, and handle cleaning and grooming regularly. Weekly, I do deeper cleaning and check-ups to keep them healthy. I provide attentive pet care based on the service offered. My priority is to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for in any setting.

“First of all, I am very grateful that she accepted my request at short notice. She and her daughter are wonderful to Toffee. She ask questions to clarify instructions and updates often for a day care service. Thank you very much!”

Diana A.

“Many thanks to Maria and family to look after Magui!”

About: I have grew up with dogs and animals since I was very young so for me taking care of them just comes naturally… i am also owning some cats in Romania currently, sadly due to living in a flat I had to leave them with parents they are 5 as well. I have had my first dog when I was 7 and I currently still taking care of my friends dogs and cats when needed. Planning to move to a house next year and get a cat for myself i think animals are offering the purest form of love and for me that created addiction❤️ I am a software engineer and work remotely so I am home all day which is nice as I can offer the proper care for your dog/cat I live in a two bedroom flat but I have loads of green areas around me including a huge natural park literally across the street so we can keep active during the day and after work

“Lauren looked after my miniature dachshund Woody for a couple of days and was great. Woody had a fantastic time and she was super easy to arrange our booking with.”

“Lara was amazing! First time I met her with Milo, she welcomed us with open arms. She loves pets so much, and that's maybe why Milo got so comfortable around her in an instant. Milo had a blast with her! She sent pictures of the little doggo and gives constant updates, as well as a complimetary walk! I can't recommend her enough. We are looking forwars to trusting her again with Milo.”

About: Lifelong pet owners and experienced dog walker/sitter. I have two sausage dogs, Dorris & Poppy, trained them myself, and I’m confident with stubborn breeds, routines, and gentle handling. Available for overnight stays, day care, drop-ins and walks. I’m working from home Monday, Wednesday and Friday and I’m also available most weekends! I’m in a ground-floor flat right by Epping Forest (no garden, but easy access to plenty of green space and regular outdoor breaks). I have two friendly sausage dogs, so visiting dogs need to be comfortable around other dogs. For overnight stays, I have a spare room that can be used for sleeping arrangements and for crates. If your dog isn’t crate trained, please let me know in advance so we can agree a setup that keeps them settled and safe.

“Tony and Archie were so nice with my little Rio. He sent me updates throughout the day and asked questions as it was the first time. I was so happy with him that I booked straight away another day next week. We feel lucky we found them ;)”

“Jasmine was very communicative and great with my dog. One thing to note is that her doggy day care doesn't include any walks - these must be booked in separately.”

Donna P.

“May was so friendly from the get go and Luna immediately took to her. We’re super grateful for May’s flexibility for a late pick up and would be more than happy to have Luna be looked after again!”

About: We’re a friendly and caring couple who have both grown up with dogs and cats, so being around animals has always been a big part of our lives. We genuinely love spending time with pets and understand that every animal has its own personality, routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping them company, we’re happy to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the people caring for your pets, and we’ll treat them as if they were our own. We’re reliable, responsible and happy to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My partner and I work different shifts, which gives us plenty of flexibility when caring for pets. I usually work afternoons and evenings (typically 3pm–11pm), while my partner works 10am–6pm and spends two days a week working from home. As our schedules are rota-based and change weekly, we’re often able to accommodate different requests and routines. We enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and relaxing at home, and everything is a bit more fun when there’s a furry (or bald!) friend joining us. We understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and we do our best to make them feel comfortable and secure. We follow any instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or simply giving them space when they need it. Our home is calm, pet-friendly, and full of attention and affection. We love spending quality time with animals, whether that’s playing, exploring outside, or curling up on the sofa for a quiet evening together. We treat every pet as if they were our own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while in our care.

About: We are an active, dog-loving family of five with a large garden, perfectly located right opposite a forest for endless walks and adventures. Our household includes three children (ages 16, 13, and 8) who have grown up knowing exactly how to respect, handle, and love dogs. We have a deep understanding of canine care, having owned our beloved Staffy, Zeus, for 15 years, and more recently, our XL Bully, Axel. ​While I recently had to make the difficult decision to rehome Axel due to my daughter’s severe eczema, her doctor has recommended frequent, short-term exposure to dogs to help her build up a natural resistance. Dog sitting is the absolute perfect balance for us—it allows us to open our home to furry guests, gives the kids their dog-fix, and ensures your pup gets constant attention, play, and love. For now, I am looking to host smaller dogs as I transition into pet sitting. ​Important Note: Your dog must be entirely comfortable and safe around cats as we have a cat (lives outside 90% of the time) ​What I offer: ​Decades of Experience: Confident and experienced with powerful breeds, energetic puppies, and senior dogs alike. ​Prime Location: A spacious, secure garden and direct access to forest trails right across the road for perfect daily walks. ​Constant Company: With a bustling family, there is almost always someone around to play, cuddle, or keep your dog company. ​Tailored Care: I will strictly follow your feeding, exercise, and training routines to make your dog feel right at home. ​Your dog won't just be looked after; they will be treated like a cherished member of our family during their stay! There's usually always someone at home, although there may be times when we have to leave for an hour or so. It would be a bonus if your dog is comfortable being alone for short periods Our garden is fully secured with grass and tiled areas. We keep a tidy, pet-safe indoor environment, though we do have a policy of keeping pets off the sofas. We provide plenty of comfortable dedicated pet beds so they still have a cozy place to relax.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments for years, mostly for friends and family who trust me with their pets while they’re away. Animals seem to connect naturally with me; they sense calmness and genuine care, which helps them settle quickly. I focus on making every pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I’m patient, attentive to routines, and adapt easily to each pet’s personality, whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy rescue, or an older companion needing a gentler touch. My schedule is very flexible. I work remotely, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day, from morning walks to evening cuddles. I plan my day around each pet’s needs and routine to keep them relaxed and happy while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and maintain open communication with regular photo and message updates. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space respectfully and ensure routines are followed exactly as requested. My goal is always the same, safety, trust, and peace of mind for both you and your pet.
