Dog Boarding Freshwater

“Our dog Poppy has found her 2nd home! She had an absolutely wonderful stay with Ronald and wants to go back for tummy tickles. We were kept informed of how she had settled in and never had any doubts or concerns. Thanks so much! Lynne”

“Henry had a wonderful time with Lesley! Between trips to the beach and zoomies in her garden he was happily exhausted by the time I picked him up! Lesley was great about sending updates and photos during his stay and I would highly recommend her”

“The best sitter Henry has ever had. He loved being there and was very well looked after. Local to me so I will be returning quite often I think! Thank you Stephanie for looking after me so well. Loved Henry x”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and share my home with my friendly 5 year old, medium size Cockapoo, Ralph, who loves having canine companions to play with 🐶🐶. Based in Burton, Christchurch, we're perfectly located near beautiful fields, farms, the forest, and the beach, providing plenty of variety for fun, enriching walks to suit every dog. Whist at home, your pet will also have access to a fully enclosed, secure rear garden where they can safely relax and play between adventures. I provide a caring, home from home environment where your dog will receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. If your pet prefers a single pet environment, we’ve got you covered. I keep my own dog Ralph, with me every other week, which leaves plenty of space for animals that prefer no other pets around. Please ensure to include this in your enquiry and i will be able to advise the weeks this is possible. I work fully from home during the week, offering flexibility with both drop off and collection times. During the week I typically walk my dog in the morning and afternoon, but flexible to cater to your pets needs equally. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home offers a spacious downstairs area where dogs are free to relax and feel at home, along with a fully enclosed, secure rear garden for safe outdoor play and toilet breaks. I only care for a small number of dogs at a time, allowing me to give each one plenty of attention, supervision, and care. My own friendly Cockapoo, Ralph, also provides a calm and sociable companion for dogs who enjoy the company of others.

“We had a pre-visit and Dillon took to Karen straightaway. Great communication from the start and throughout Dillon's stay. We knew Dillon would be well looked after, and we highly recommend Karen. If we can, we would look to book Karen again, if there's availability 😊.”

“This was our first time using petsitters through Rover and we had a fantastic experience with Mitch and Lizzie. Toffee absolutely loved her stay and had several walks and a bit of training too ! They kept me fully updated over the weekend which was lovely to see how genuinely they enjoyed having a dog to stay too. It frees us up a bit to have an extra bit of help with our dog. Highly recommend.”

“Monica was excellent with communication and sent plenty of videos so we could see Chester was getting plenty of love and attention. He was certainly tired when he got home.”

Becky M.

“Maria and her partner have looked after benny for a second time whilst we went away for a few days to wales. Again highly recommend great communication kept up to date about any updates being sent photos and videos to show what Benny gets up to he has made a few new friends since being with Maria. 100% top care and top service. Wouldnt have any doubts leaving benny with the lovely family.”

“Coco came home happy, relaxed, and probably wondering when he gets to visit Hanna again! 😄 Great communication, plenty of updates, and fantastic care throughout. Highly recommend!”

Oliwia B.

“We are always happy to leave Mabel with Rachael and know that she will be really well cared for. This time we asked for her help with barely any notice and Rachael was so helpful. We absolutely recommend her and will continue to trust Mabel with her.”

Sarah M.

“Rio enjoyed her first stay with Amy and Poppy. Communication was quick and Amy was very flexible and accommodating with timings. Amy sent me updates and photos throughout the week which put my mind at ease. Couldn’t be happier and already planning the next stay ☺️ Thankyou Amy.”

Louise M.

“Lisa and Nicola are great. They both welcomed my dog Jasper as if he was their own. They had him for 3 nights, took him for amazing walks and lavished him with attention alongside their own dog Lochi. He’s been pining for the whole family since he came home!! Would 100% recommend, thank you both 🐾”

About: I work from home on flexible part time hours and my partner has a workshop in our garden meaning your dog will always have great company. We had a family dog whilst our kids were growing up and we both had dogs when growing up. We have experience of both male and female dogs of all ages. We are comfortable with training , administering any medication, grooming routines and love a good walk to either forest or beach. I work part time most of which is spent working from home. My job is very flexible and I can fit around the needs of the pets in my care. I have a 3 bed bungalow with fenced garden all around. I live here with my wife and our daughters visit from London occasionally. We are walking distance from the beach and have a pet friendly car to get out onto the New Forest. We love a good long walk on the beach or forest and for shorter jaunts we are close to Fawcetts field.

“Sammy provided a loving home for my rescue dog whilst we away. She sent updates every day, and in the pictures my dog looked very happy! Next time we need dog sitting, we will definitely be using Sammy!”

Steph W.

“Katiuzca was amazing with Poppy. She instantly made Poppy part of her family and I had lots of lovely photos of her 'holiday'. I wouldn't hesitate to use again. I had plenty of feedback and Poppy was happy to be with Katiuzca”

“Absolutely great! Gayle understands long dogs and I think my rescue girlie loves her as much as Gayle loves her. My dog has separation anxiety and behavioural problems from her previous home, so it's a great result as it's the first time she has needed to stay overnight and the following day away from home. She got lots of cuddles and walks in the local woods and Gayle sent lots of pictures during the stay. Everybody happy, and I'll have no hesitation about taking my dog to Gayle again.”

Ed M.

“Be. Stepped in last minute to have my mums dog Buddy while she had a stint in hospital. Buddy loves cuddles I know Ben made sure he felt safe and secure and made sure he got a decent walk once it had cooled down. Thanks Ben. 🙏”

“Isabella and her family took great care of our elderly dog, Freddy. She catered for his needs and he seemed very happy. Also, communication throughout the booking was very good. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again.”

Lisa M.

“Loki had a great weekend with Annabelle. She took him out for walks despite not feeling very well and was always kind and responsive. He came home happy and healthy.”
