“Thank you David for looking after my dog so well. Rodney came home happy and relaxed… like he had had a day at the spa! David was kind and a good communicator - so even though my booking was a little last minute - as a first booking time with David he was reassuring and welcomed my dog gladly. We hope to see you again soon! 🤗”

About: ENHANCED DBS CHECK As a widow and the owner of Brigit and Nelly, where Brigit attends weekly training classes. I deeply understand dog behavior and the importance of individualized attention. I only board one dog at a time, ensuring a peaceful environment tailored to their needs, complete with a daily one-hour walk to keep them happy and healthy. Your pet will feel truly cherished and cared for in my hands. I can offer holistic animal treatments while your dog is present in my home. Pet care is naturally integrated into my daily routine, ensuring a seamless and attentive experience for the animals in my care. Since I am home every day, I have the flexibility to provide constant supervision, companionship, and care tailored to each pet's unique needs. **Daily Routine:** - Early Morning: I begin the day with feeding and a one-hour walk for the boarded dog. This ensures they start the day with fresh air, exercise, and mental stimulation. - Midday: Time is dedicated to play time to rest or relaxation depending on their energy levels. - Evening: Another round of interaction, such as a light walk, or holistic care practices (e.g., Reiki. Bach Flowers or crystal therapy), is included if needed. - **Evening:** A relaxed environment with attention, affection, and any additional care the dog may require before settling in for the night. Weekly Routine: My dog Brigit's training classes are part of the weekly schedule, enriching my understanding of dog behavior and training techniques. These insights are often beneficial for the boarded dog, as I can incorporate similar practices and enrichment activities tailored to them. Because I board only one dog at a time, I can adapt my schedule as necessary to accommodate any specific needs or routines the pet may have, ensuring they feel at home and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is equipped with a secure garden, allowing dogs to enjoy outdoor time in a safe and controlled environment. Whether it's for play, relaxation, or exploration, the garden provides a perfect space for pets to feel at ease. For added security and comfort, I have a crate available if needed, which can be used as a cozy, familiar retreat for rest or downtime. I am attentive to each pet's preferences and needs, ensuring they feel secure and supported during their stay. With over 40 years of experience in pet care and a commitment to personalized attention, I strive to create an environment where trust and relaxation come naturally. Your pet will always feel safe, loved, and at home.

“Thank you Alys and Dan for looking after Poppy. They were able to accommodate at relatively short notice and kept me updated throughout the day with how Poppy was getting on.”

“It was my first time leaving Rolo with someone and I couldn’t be more comfortable doing it 🩷 Montana was super nice sending me extra updates while he was having fun with Bailey. We’re definitely doing it again! I can tell that my puppy had so much fun over there that he came exhausted 😂 and slept right after we arrived at home. 🏠 Thank you very much, Montana and Bailey! Xx”

“Rachael was great with our dog Leo! She is very accommodating and was able to fit Leo in last minute which was much appreciated. She took very good care of him and he was a happy boy coming home afterwards. She kept us updated and put our minds at ease whilst we were out at work. Would definitely book her in again!”

About: I have had pets myself from hamsters to dogs. I love lots of dog cuddles and going on walks. I have also spent some time pet and house sitting for family members. I work in the week per week. However, my partner is a vet and can do home visits throughout the day and help also! We have lots of flexibility :) We have a locked front and back door. Our garden is also fenced all the way around and has a locked gate at all times.

About: Me and my husband Mustafa Bozkaya spent 12 years of our lives with our adorable dog Bonibon. She was a member of our family. Unfortunately she passed away 1 year ago and we miss her very much. My 8 year-old son is crazy about dogs. We are very keen on taking care the other dogs to ease our grief, make them happy and feel at home when you are away. I and Mustafa are highly experienced on taking care dogs, understanding their requirements and feelings. Also we have taken care our friends’ dogs many times. I work from 8.00 am to 5.00pm on weekdays. My husband Mustafa Bozkaya is at home during the day till 5.00 pm. Therefore we have no issues with taking care pets all day. We are usually available on weekends. We have fenced garden and our house has 3 bedrooms. So we have enough space for your dog to run around. We do not have own pet currently. We have 2 kids (8 years old and 1 year old baby) who love playing with dogs. We as a family would be very happy to take care and enjoy your pet when you are away.

About: I have had my own dogs since 2004 and have also dog sat for family and friends. I enjoy walking dogs and giving many cuddles. I work from home and go out to work but my partner can be at home when I have to go out to the office. I have a fenced garden. My own dog is walked daily on a lead. We live in a semi rural area. So lots of fresh air when out on walks.

About: I have grown up with dogs and got to know many different dog breeds. I love all dogs great and small. I have had Pomeranian’s Japanese Shiba Inu and currently have a Rottweiler. I am flexible for your dog’s needs and will make sure they get the love attention they deserve. Lots of cuddles and exercise. I am currently looking to do a dog training course as that is another thing I am passionate about doing. I am currently a stay at home mum with a one year old, so I have enough time to give your furry pets the attention they need. Plenty of walks and play time, we have a secured garden. My one year old has been been bought up around dogs so he is very gentle and gives all dogs space. I have a fenced garden to keep your dog safe and I have a Rottweiler that can give your dog friend company or can be separated if you would prefer. Very easy going all dogs will get cuddles and love. Crates can be used if this is what you would like. We are really flexible as each dog is different. We have some nice nature walks around here as well so don’t worry your dog will get there exercise.

About: I have a very calm, kind, relaxed nature that helps me to bond really well with all animals. Animals are unique individuals and have their own personalities, I feel it's so important to let them get to know you as it is you to get to know them. I love to keep them company and build trust and a bond with them within their environment. I can be very flexible around my other job, I keep my availability up to date and am very reliable. My other work - I support individuals with learning difficulties to go away on holiday. Around the working holidays I can be very flexible, as I am self employed. I am also training to become a counsellor. Pet sits and short term/ one off dog walks are likely more practical due to my other work. I love to dog walk, pet sit at owners homes and am open to drop ins. I live in a flat which may or may not suit many pets and owners.

About: Hello! We are Mother and son (Deb and James) We are fairly new to this site but have previous experience caring and sitting. For the past 19 years ' Bobby' was our family cat, he was elderly and liked to be the only pet in the house ,but he passed away in 2024 and before we adopt our own dog we wanted to take some time looking after other dogs. And so far we've really enjoyed it! From tiny to large, from bouncy to reserved, each dog in our care has been unique and we've loved getting to know them. Whilst James is at home in the evenings and weekend, Mum is at home most days. We have a long fully fenced garden for your pet to play in and they will never be left alone. We will give you regular updates of the fun they are having whilst at our home. We are able to give them long regular walks and ensure they are happy, safe and comfortable. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine as I work from home which allows me to give your dogs lots of attention, cuddles, playtime, and long walks. We have a long fully fenced garden for your pet to play in and they will never be left alone. I will also give you regular updates of the fun they are having whilst at our home.

About: Both myself and my husband love animals! We both grew up with animals, and now are the pawrents of Betty (cat) and Mr Pickles (dachshund). We both work from home, so able to offer home boarding, house sitting, walks and drop ins (along with walks if home boarding/sitting). Your pet will have access to the whole house, and fenced of garden (for dogs), and happy to bath and brush/pamper all as part of the stay. A home visit is needed before, just so your furbaby can meet ours, and get the sniffs done around our house :) Both myself and husband work from home (I sometimes have to go out for work), but someone will be home all the time to give your pet the cuddles and pets all the time. Also, due to having our own, we never leave them alone. Our garden is fenced off, and we take our sausage to fenced in fields, which your dog is welcome too (if your happy for that). We walk our dog at least once daily, but will make sure your furbaby gets the walks they needs, along with treats, cuddles and pets. Our dog is crate trained, but happy if yours sleeps on the bed, that is of course no problem.

“Our first time leaving Marley with someone, really happy we chose Paul. Marley had a fab day and I'm sure would love to return 🐕🩵”

About: As a huge dog lover I’ve had dogs for most of my life and they have always become part of the family! As well as this I have a huge amount of dog sitting experience for friends, family and neighbours. I have walked and looked after a wide range of dogs including older dogs, puppies, dogs with different challenges and always take exceptional care of them! I treat all animals with love, care and attention. I love the outdoors and walking with the dogs makes it so much more enjoyable. I’m kind natured and always happy to provide photos and videos from walks and cuddles when owners prefer. I have completed lots of puppy training, dog walking groups and classes as well as socialisation groups. For sitting I provide the option to collect and return your dog at an additional fee for convenience if preferred. Please note that during some sirs my girlfriend may come and stay too. I work from home therefore I am around majority of the time to keep them company. I often walk the dogs either before work in the morning, during my lunch hour or after work. I have a fenced garden which is fully enclosed. The dogs are part of the family and allowed in all areas of the house. They have access to water at all times. The house is clean, tidy and all dangers kept out of dogs access.
