About: I have been around dogs all my life, from big to small. I’ve looked after families dogs plenty of times, one which requires diabetic medication and care. In october 2024, I took on a dog that required extra care and attention due to anxiety and being abused as a pup. I work as a TA with flexible hours. Due to the nature of my job, I only work 1-3 days a week which means I can be readily available when needed. I have a large fenced garden with double doors that open onto it, and I am happy to leave the doors open for air flow and to allow the dog freedom of being inside or outside. I can crate if required.

“sian was lovely, welcoming and very communicative, she clearly cares deeply about dogs, but also customer experience and I'm very happy to have had my special little guy in her capable and experienced hands. She sent pictures across and cared for him like her own, and even had 2 bowls of water down when I came to pick him up, despite me only providing one water bowl. Thank you for a seamless and caring approach.”


“Bonnie and Blu had an amazing day! I loved the regular updates and photos – it gave me so much peace of mind. They looked so happy and well cared for the whole time. I can tell they were truly loved. Highly recommend!”


About: I treat my dogs like babies, I attended lots of training classes with my dogs and have had dogs from being a baby, if your dog is boarding with me it will be like their own little holiday and they will be taken lots of places Pet care is my priority in my daily and weekly routine, I dedicate everything into my 'the dog house' business and looking forward to this new venture I have a large back garden that has a dog swimming pool, sand pit, I will take them on plenty of walks and home routine can be adhered too

“Andrew (and Sian) took lovely care of my two border collies. My dogs can be quite reactive but Andrew reassured me with his experience of dogs with quirks! They came home nicely tired and calm and they'll be back to see Andrew soon ☺️”


About: Hi, we are Pete & Emma. Having had pets throughout child and adulthood, we are both well versed in the thoughts that go through your mind when looking to find someone just like you to look after your furry loved ones. We share our lives with 'Sirius' a Dalmation we adopted at the age of 1 and it was important for us to know we had someone we could build a relationship with, if we ever needed a service! That's why we joined - for you hopefully! We walk our own dog a minimum of twice a day, once in the morning by Emma and once in the evening by Pete. Walks generally last a minimum of 30minutes. Pete works from home so there is always someone around, on weekends we usually get out for a longer walk together on a Sunday. So pet care fits nicely into the routine we are able to maintain! We have a fenced garden and a door to the garden is left open throughout the day in summer, during colder months toilet breaks are as often as needed. We are in close proximity to large fields for regular exercise. Pets within our home are welcome In all rooms where they will find a comfy spot to snooze.

“Vicky helped us out really short notice Very professional polite and provided us with lots of gorgeous pictures through out the day wouldn’t hesitate to book Vicky again in the future”


“Beth is great and so caring, Kobe suffers from severe anxiety, but Beth was very patient with him and he was well looked after. Beth is happy to go the extra mile and has offered to help work on Kobe's anxiety, I would highly recommend her, thanks again.”


About: I had fogs when I lived at home with my parents and when I moved out I lived in a small house so adopted 2 brother cats. We have now moved to a bigger home and our children and us have a cat and a dog who are great friends. I am a stay at home parent so other than fitting around the school run i am free to walk/visit/feed your four legged friend at any time. I have a large garden with a patio, deck and grassy areas. The fences are high and sturdy so your fur baby will be safe and have fun to run around with my best friend Frankie.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for our own dogs, my wife and I will bring both passion and practical know-how to every dog we look after. We have both always had family dogs and before relocating to the area, we ran a dog-sitting side business, providing trusted and reliable care to dogs of all sizes and ages. We now both work from home together, which means your dog will never be alone. With flexible structure to our day to day we can accommodate your dogs routine and requirements. Your dog will have access to a large, secure garden and the entire ground floor to relax and play. We're committed to offering a safe, loving environment—and peace of mind for you—whenever your dog needs a home away from home.

Please don't hesitate in contacting me. I will treat your home with upmost respect, – I’m naturally clean and tidy! I’ll make sure to stay out of any rooms or areas you’d prefer to keep private.
