Doggy Day Care Monk Bretton

About: I used to work on a farm looking after sheep goats sheepdogs and much more. I am a foster carer and my husband is a lorry driver and we are fully DBS checked. We have our birth child and a foster child. I am home pretty much most of the time. We have a nice safe enclosed garden that is perfect for the dogs to run around in. We have a good size house. I recently lost my dog that I have had for 15 years. She lived a good long life travelling different countries and going on all of my adventures. My family and I are very big animal lovers In our free time we will go to the animal shelter and take the dogs out for walks. We have cared for friend and family members animals in the past. As a foster carer I'm home most of the day. Our dog age 4 will go on 2 to 3 walks a day depending on weather. Our pets sleep on the sofa or in our bedroom. We treat our pets like our children. There will be safe guarding in place. Our children are pet friendly At 1am pinko goes the the toilet. At 630 the garden door is opened and it stays opened all day when we are home so the dogs can come and go as they please. First walk 9.30 for an hour. Around 14.00 ten minutes walk on the Fields across the road from me. Then evening 18.00 a 30 minutes walk. Bedtime so last toilet break about 22.00. I have a fenced garden. I have a medium-sized dog; she doesn't use a crate, but if you have a crate and wish your pup to use it, we can accommodate.

“Great communication and plenty of updates shelby was relaxed and happy.”

About: I have always had or lived with a dog since living at home with my parents through to having one which my children grew up with and have had three dogs since then up until March 2025. I love the outdoors and miss not having a doggy companion on my walks. I am very flexible with availability as I work from home on a part time basis . I am confident with dogs and happy to follow any ongoing training and routines that may be in place for your dog. I currently work from home on a part time basis with flexible hours Monday -Friday So can work pet care around my work to suit most needs . I have an enclosed fenced back garden for your dogs playing time and toileting needs I have a conservatory which looks onto the garden for your dogs bed / basket and resting time between play time and walks. Your dog would have access to all areas of the house apart from the bedrooms .

About: I regularly care for a friendly cocker spaniel, so it's important that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. I've been informally dog sitting for around two years now and I really enjoy it. I work an office job during the week, so I am available to help from Friday at 3pm until Sunday evening. I'm an active sitter and love a long outdoor adventure in all weathers. I'm just as happy to take a stroll on lead down my nearby lanes, engage in a game of fetch or have a cheeky snuggle on the sofa for the afternoon - sometimes its hard to tell who's having more fun :) Your dogs will be free to roam around the bungalow, which is based in a quiet cul de sac in Great Houghton. There are no rules to where they can go, they are free to enjoy beds, sofas and the small enclosed garden we have out the back of the bungalow. I will try to stick to your normal routines where possible and will of course send updates and photos as many times as you need, I want you to feel just as relaxed as your pet. I work Monday to Friday so I'm only available on weekends. I usually have a cocker spaniel on a Saturday so please only get in touch if your dog is comfortable around other dogs I'm in a quiet cul de sac with an enclosed garden. There are lots of fun walks near me in varying length. Animals that stay here are treated as members of the family and will be loved and cared for as you would your own :)

“I honestly can’t thank Stacey enough for the amazing care she gave Ozzy while I was at work. Leaving your dog with someone else can be worrying, but she made me feel completely at ease from day one. Stacey kept me updated with lots of lovely photos and messages throughout the day, so I always knew Ozzy was happy and having the best time. It was obvious she cared for him as if he were her own, giving him so much love, attention, and care. The biggest sign of all was on the second day—Ozzy couldn’t wait to get back and actually ran straight to her house with his tail wagging! That told me everything I needed to know about how comfortable and happy he was with her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stacey to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy, Ozzy.”

“Rollo loved his stay with Janet, I couldn't recommend her highly enough. She was quick to respond, really welcoming and friendly. Rollo loved playing in her garden with Luna and he had two good walks too. We had one sleepy content doggy when we picked him up after his stay.”

“brilliant personalised care for my beautiful boy. 100% understanding of him and his needs. Lots of lovely pics of him having the time of his life. Very compassionate and caring people who clearly love their charges as much as we owners do. He can't wait to go back!”

About: I have been rescuing and caring for dogs since I was a young child, so animal care is second nature to me. Currently, our home is shared with our well-trained dog, Bonnie, and our sweet cat, Luna. Because I’ve raised my children to respect and properly care for animals from an early age, our entire household is calm, attentive, and welcoming. We keep an active schedule with 2 to 3 walks a day for Bonnie, ensuring any guest dog gets plenty of exercise, structure, and love. Whether your pet needs high energy outdoor time or gentle daily care, they’ll be treated like part of our family. As a school teacher currently on school holidays, my schedule is completely open and dedicated full time to pet care! I am at home all day, which allows me to offer round the clock supervision, flexible walk times, and constant companionship. During term time, I am available outside school hours and on weekends for walks, drop ins, and boarding. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home features a secure garden, and I share it with my well trained, friendly dog, Bonnie, and our cat, Luna. Having raised my children to be respectful and gentle with animals, our home provides a calm, safe environment for guest pets. We stick closely to your pet's routine, ensure secure leash walks, and can easily accommodate crating or specific care needs.

“Obie has been to Millie’s twice now and really loves it there. When we pull up outside Obie scrambles as the car window in excitement. Millie looks after Obie well and is attentive to her needs and the situation on the day. I am disabled and would struggle to get out of the car to a front door so Millie has been really accommodating by coming out and taking Obie from the car. Will carry on using and recommend!”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a friendly Labrador who is well socialised and used to being around both dogs and cats. Outside of pet care, I organise an annual dog show with the charity Friends of Middleton Park and, this year, I'm also organising a free community dog show for the Belle Isle Gala in partnership with Belle Isle Tenant Management Organisation. I have animal first aid experience and access to veterinary advice and emergency support 24 hours a day, giving you added peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I have my own transport and, at weekends, weather permitting, your dog may enjoy trips to local parks and beauty spots for extra enrichment and exercise. Of course, you'll receive plenty of photos, updates, and messages throughout their stay so you can see just how much fun they're having. When your pet stays with me, they will be treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment where your pet's wellbeing is my top priority. I work from home, which means your pet will have plenty of company, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for more than two hours, and in most cases are with me almost all of the time. Before the booking, we'll discuss your pet's routine, preferences, dietary requirements, and any special needs to help them settle in as comfortably as possible. During their stay, your pet will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I will stick as closely as possible to their normal routine to help them feel at home. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your pet is getting on and enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I also have animal first aid experience and access to 24/7 veterinary support should any concerns arise. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. I have a fully fenced garden, giving dogs a secure outdoor space for exercise, play, and toilet breaks. Inside the home, pets are never left without companionship, as I have other friendly pets to keep them company when I’m out. I also use multiple water fountains and automatic feeders, which are monitored and will alert me when levels are low. This means fresh water is always available and feeding routines are followed on schedule, even when I’m not at home for short periods. When out on walks, dogs are always kept on a lead for safety. If appropriate and with owner permission, I also use extendable leads so they can enjoy extra freedom to explore while still remaining secure and under control. As I work from home, pets are supervised for most of the day and are never left alone for more than 2 hours. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow each pet’s usual routine closely to help them feel settled and secure. Regular updates and photos are provided so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay.

“I had to go into the office today & Ellie had Buster for me. My boy has come home very, very happy & tired from a lovely long walk & lots of love & fusses. Thank you, Ellie, you are a total star! And I will absolutely call on you again ????⭐?⭐?”

“Jennifer was amazing! She took my dog out for a swim, which he absolutely loved, and spent lots of time playing with him. I really appreciated all the pictures and video she sent, they were wonderful to receive and showed how much fun he was having. I couldn't be happier with the care she provided especially since it was so last minute!”

About: Pets have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My family has a lovable 11-year-old Labrador whom I helped train from puppyhood — from basic commands to good leash manners. We also shared 18 wonderful years with a gentle British Shorthair cat, so I understand the unique needs of both dogs and cats at every life stage. Whether it’s energetic playtime, patient training, or quiet cuddles, I treat every pet like my own. Your furry family member will get the same love, attention, and care I’ve given my own for decades. Because I work from home, your pet gets my full attention all day. I can easily fit in frequent potty breaks, play sessions, and walks, and I’m always around for company and cuddles. My flexible schedule means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine — whether that’s early morning walks, midday training, or late-night check-ins. Having pets around while I work makes my day better, and I love giving them the same care, patience, and companionship I’ve given my own over the years Whether your pet is staying at my place or I’m visiting yours, they’ll get the same love, attention, and comfort they’re used to. In my home, I make sure there’s plenty of space to play, cozy spots for naps, and a safe, calm environment. I stick to your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel secure and happy. When I care for pets in their own home, I keep things consistent — from their favorite walk routes to the way they like their food prepared. My goal is to make every visit or stay feel like home, so your furry friend stays relaxed, loved, and well-cared for.

About: I had a miniature poodle named Jack Sparrow who very sadly passed away earlier this year from old age. He was 16. I have also taken care of friends dogs in my home whilst they have been away. Regular walks are guaranteed. Your dogs will be loved and well looked after whilst in my care. My cat can easily be taken to my parents house while I am caring for your dog x I work from home so would be able to be with your dogs continuously. If I am caring for your dog, they would be my sole focus while they were with me so I could follow their usual routines. I have an enclosed fenced garden with grass, decking and stone. Dogs would be kept downstairs unless fully house trained in which case would have free rein.

“Tasha has just come back from her first visit to Sarah. I can tell she has been very well looked after and had lots of attention because she is relaxed as if she has never been away. Sarah sent texts and messages which was very reassuring as you never know if your dog is going to settle to a new place. Can recommend Sarah will look after your pet very well.”
