Doggy Day Care in North Devon

“We had a great experience with Tina! The whole process was uncomplicated and she responded very quickly, which was a huge relief as we were looking for a dog sitter on very short notice. Our dog came back happy, well-cared for, and clearly had a great time – it was obvious she hadn’t been missing anything and was in good hands. Tina truly saved our day, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and loving dog care.”

“Karlie was great with the whole process. I plan my end kept changing and she was super accommodating and helped us out massively. Daisy (who can be a little anxious) seemed super happy and chilled when we got her back. Karlie listened to all my pointers about Daisy and really showed that she was going to give her all the care and attention she needed. Definitely recommend!”

“Very happy. Nicky has a wonderful dog friendly setting with lots of walks and places to explore, including the beach. Pinot met her dog, horses and even a barn owl. Nicky kept me updated all day with lovely pictures and video of Pinots day out, including some of my Pinot being a turncoat and showing someone more love than I get at home… getting cuddles and strokes in chair… Happy recommend Nicky and we will be seeing her again when I am back in the area on business.”

About: As a professional and caring animal lover, looking after pets of all kinds is top of my list of favourite things to do, so to turn my passion into a business made perfect sense. All pets in my care receive plenty of one-to-one attention, play and walkies to stimulate and keep them happy. I've always had dogs so caring for all age groups comes as second nature to me. There is a large park right across from my house and your pet will get 2 to 3 walks a day, depending on their needs, together with access to my fully enclosed rear garden. Trips to the beach or woods are with owners consent, of course. I am Enhanced DBS checked and Fully Insured for your peace of mind. I almost always like to have a meet and greet (free of charge) in the first instance as it gives both the dog, the owner and me a chance to get to know each other a little to begin with. If it's a last minute booking it's fine as people get let down all the time, so I totally understand situations like that. If you can't make a meet and greet (usually takes around 20mins) I'm happy to do a video or phone call. I'm always around to offer playtime and cuddles for your pets. I believe pets are part of the family, they love our company so being there for them is very important to me. My back garden is fully dog-proof. I have a dog flap plus the back door is open all day on nice days so they may come and go at leisure. I have a pet ramp on my steps to ensure older/injured/disabled dogs can access the rear garden too. Your pet can roam around in complete safety. I have a very chilled and friendly little Cavapoo who loves making new friends. You'll receive photos of your pet so that you can relax in the knowledge they're having lots of fun whilst they're with me.

“We booked Olivia while we were on holiday to take Max out for a few hours and she was perfect. She clearly cared for Max and he came back a happy, tired out pup, just what we needed”

About: I have had experience with lots of different types of animals dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, hamsters and mice. I love all animals and thrive at their love and enjoyment. I currently work during the week days from home and am happy to pop into see your animal during the day for toilet breaks. I am also available for night time sitting within your home and dog walking in the mornings, evenings and at weekends. I am also available during the days. When caring for an animal within your own home I would arrange to come and meet the animal before hand to build up a relationship with your animal. I would also discuss a care plan with you around what your animals likes and dislikes and if there are any additional needs that I need to know.

About: I have grown up with lots of different types of dogs and only recently lost our little 18year old terrier who I trained as a puppy. I also have experience dog sitting and walking for my neighbours I have recently left my job and moved back home to my mums. I have a free schedule for the summer whilst I decide what I want to do next and look for new work I live with my mum and our little dog recently passed away, I would love to have another dog around to give endless cuddles to. The house is secure and garden is fenced. I am used to having a dog around to look after.

“Kit had a wonderful day with Caitlin and Hugh - he came home and slept and slept! Thanks for keeping him entertained and for sending me pictures of fun in the park. Much appreciated that you were able to come and drop Kit off as well. We'll see you again soon!”

About: I ran our own dog walking business and cared for people's pets with love and respect always. Allowed pets to make our home theirs everything. I love walking and getting out so pets will do the same. Our own dog was always with us wherever we went, never left alone. I have a secure home and although only a small yard we allow pets to be on our sofa and beds at night. They are protected when out and about always.

“Sophie helped us out at the last minute request to watch our dog whilst we went on a day trip to Lundy island. We would highly recommend Sophie to watch your pet.”

“Lalaine kindly arranged to meet me for a walk before our booking, so she could get to know my dog beforehand. My dog took to Lalaine straight away and happily settled with her straight away. Lalaine gave me updates during the day and was really prompt returning messages to confirm arrangements. I would be very happy for Lalaine to look after my dog again.”

“Elka has been regularly sitting for our Boston terrier Flynn. She’s been amazing with him, taking care to adapt things for his sometimes tricky behaviour. He comes home a very tired and happy dog. Thank you Elka!”

About: I have grown up with dogs (My first word was my dog- Rolley!) and I see them as a essential part of my life and routine. I am now our lucky enough to have my own ; little Nellie. Therefore I am confident with both younger dogs to older dogs with more complex needs. I am familiar with cockapoos and cocker spaniels, but love all breeds. I have a medium sized enclosed garden, but are lucky enough to live in walking distance to two woods and a 20 minute drive to local dog friendly beaches! I am lucky enough to work from home, After work my favourite thing is to walk Nellie, meaning that dogs are rarely left. (Only if it is too hot for her on the beach!) I have a my own 1 1/2 year old cocker spaniel called nellie, she is very happy and loving with other dogs and loves evening cuddles My garden is enclosed. I would walk your dog on the lead at all times, unless superficially instructed. I am are also very happy to leave your dog in a different room to nellie, if/when we popped out. I have a crate if required, and am used to crate trained dogs. (Nellie is crate trained.) All dogs if travelling a car will be put a in their own car crate or on a doggy seatbelt. (As per the the law.) All dogs will be walked twice a day for at least 30 minutes*( unless you request otherwise, or there is extreme weather.)

About: Our dog Mia (Sprocker) is at the heart of our family. We have trained her from a puppy and we love walking and being outdoors. My husband and I work from home, taking our dog for a walk three times a day, we have access to public footpaths and several beaches only 10 minutes' drive away. We have an enclosed courtyard and also access to over an acre of land for the dogs to run more freely and a dog crate if required.

About: I've had lots of experience caring for lots of dogs for families I've provided childcare for in the last few years. Mostly smaller dogs aged 1-10 but I have experience with older dogs and larger breeds also! I have cared for more reactive puppies and also calmer personalities. I adore dogs and have a calming energy that I utilise to try and make all dogs comfortable, safe and secure even when they're away from home. I can be very flexible. I’m currently not employed and have a very open schedule. I can drive for drop in visits and walks anywhere within a 30 min radius of Morchard Bishop There are various fenced areas for secure play at home. My parents have two cats but there is plenty of space surrounding the house to keep any dogs away from them if necessary.

“Perfect. Koda was very happy. Reliable, great communication. Would recommend”

About: I have always had pets in my house whitest growing up. I was always there for them and loved the company and looking after them I’m always available, currently working from home so I’m available weekdays and weekends anytime and I am available for them to stay the night any day. I have a big fenced garden for them to play and a lot of room in the house as well. I do have a cat of my own but she is and outdoor cat so she is outside 80% of the time. But she is very friendly and loves dogs.

About: Always had dogs in my life, 2 collies I used to look after everyday when I was young and now have a very silly 3 year old golden retriever that I help to look after everyday. I work for myself online from home, so can look after fluffy friends from wherever if there’s internet or if I take time away from the laptop as there’s no major commitments. I can come to your home to look after your dog as to keep them in their preferred environment that they are used to. Will take for great walks exploring the coastline and more. If unable to come to your house or if I need to be at home for a little while then I have a large fenced garden with a bouncy golden retriever to keep them company.

“Hector was a superb find on Rover! My daughter and I spent a week in Cornwall and wanted a couple of days Dog free on the beach. Hector was very flexible with drop-off and pick up times and Bertie had a wonderful time with him. I received pictures and details of the walk at Bertie went on thank you so much Hector.!”

“This was a one off booking whilst we were on holiday and we really appreciated Nikita taking our booking at late notice. Archie had a great time and she sent some lovely videos of him loving life on the beach! I would recommend her with no hesitation and use her services again if we return in the future. Thank you Nikita!”
