Doggy Day Care Peterlee

About: I have looked after animals since I was a child. Growing up with rabbits, dogs, hamsters and working in a doggy day care in my early twenties, has made me the go to person for family friends and neighbours to go to when they need help with they fur babies! I currently work full time in the NHS which is why I am only able to board on the weekends. If I had a pet, I wouldn’t allow them to be left more than 3 hours alone so I would never do that to yours. Please note, that for Friday evenings, I will be available only from 6pm due to my work. I have a 7ft fenced back garden and I am fortunate enough to be living near some nice country parks and the beach. I do not have a dog but do see Roxy, a miniature schnauzer often as she is my parents dog. If your dog is friendly and happy to meet others, she would happily play and show them around the neighbour hood! I am more than happy for you to come to my home to do a meet and greet should you wanted to board them for a night or two!

“Woody seemed very happy with Bethany - immediately running into her house without looking back XD. Was nice getting photos and updates throughout the day. Bethany was super flexible which made everything much easier for us. Thanks again!”

About: I love dogs and have 4 years of experience caring for my Cockapoo, as well as 1 year of experience looking after a friend’s puppy. I also work in a charity that helps dogs, which has given me even more experience and a strong understanding of how important it is to provide dogs with kindness, patience and care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and keeping them happy and active. I can play fetch with them indoors or in the garden, take them for walks on a lead, brush their coats, and clean their paws after walks or when they’ve been outside. I’m also happy to clean them up after they’ve done their business. I’m a caring, responsible and patient person, and I will treat every dog as if they were my own. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved and well looked after. 🐶❤️ I’m currently working from home and I will walk my dog at 10 am on weekdays. If I have work to do offline such as at schools or store, I will walk him at 7 am. I have plenty of time for afternoon or evening when I finish work or have a break from work to look after pets who need toilet breaks or feeding. I have a fenced garden in a semi-detached house and a park within 5 minutes walk from the house. I love walking dogs in the park and playing balls with them for a bit. I also like playing hide and seek games with them in the house and let them use their energy for a bit after their treats and naps.

“Rossi and Phantom love their time with Charlene and Forrest, they always come back exhausted and are excited when they get in the car and realise where we are going”

About: I grew up with pets and own 2 golden retrievers who I adore! they’re the most friendly dogs I have ever met in my life, I wfh and have the flexibility for play time, toilet breaks, multiple walks a day and have lots of love to give. I’m an easy going person and very honest. I understand the struggles of not being able to go on holiday or not trust someone to have my pet, or kennels not accepting not neutered/unspayed/in season pets as as such I am here to make a difference, regardless. Happy to have you check my home and garden, and meet in public too ☺️ I work from home and have a dog, I’m very happy to accommodate other pets if that helps their owners. I will accept over night care too if needed Pets have no restrictions in my home, should they wish to sleep on any bed or sofa they will be able to ☺️They will have access to a fenced and secure garden and lots of love and cuddles

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and grew up on a farm with many dogs. I have also brought my children up around animals and have had both cats and dogs for them to grow up with. I am well versed in feeding, washing and walking dogs and love dogs of all kinds. I have most of my days free but enjoy going on morning and evening walks in the summer as well as spending time outside in the sun. My house has a large back yard and has plenty of space for dogs to roam and play. There are also many public foot paths near my house that I enjoy taking dogs for walks on.

“As this was willows first time away from myself I was quite nervous on how she would be however Ella-Marie was fantastic, kept me updated throughout and willow was a really happy pooch 10/10 and will definitely be using Ella’s services again!”

About: 🐾 A Home Away From Home for Your Best Friend! 🐾 Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of every age, breed, and personality. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, so I understand that every pup is unique and deserves plenty of love, patience, and individual attention. From energetic puppies learning the ropes to gentle senior dogs needing a little extra care, I'm experienced with it all. I've helped with puppy training, supported older dogs with arthritis and mobility issues, and cared for every stage in between. Whether your dog is full of zoomies or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy during their stay. I've looked after dogs of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Jack Russells right up to gentle giants like Dogues de Bordeaux—so no matter how big or small your four-legged family member is, they'll be welcomed with open arms. Your dog will have plenty of room to make themselves at home in our spacious house, with lots of cosy spots to relax, nap, or simply potter about. Outside, we have a large, secure garden where they can stretch their legs, play, sniff, and soak up the fresh air. We're also surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it the perfect place for exciting adventures, leisurely strolls, and plenty of sniff-filled walkies. Sharing our home is our lovely spayed female Golden Retriever, who absolutely adores other dogs. She's friendly, gentle, and always happy to make new friends—whether that's a game of chase in the garden or simply lounging together after a long walk. I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, and I'll care for them as if they were one of my own. Whether they're staying for a day, a weekend, or a longer holiday, you can relax knowing they'll receive lots of love, attention, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them!), and updates so you can see what they've been getting up to. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I work from home full-time, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule already revolves around my own Golden Retriever, meaning your dog will always have company, attention, and plenty of opportunities for exercise and relaxation throughout the day. Our mornings start with breakfast (our Goldie would never let us forget it!), followed by a long walk through the beautiful nearby woods and countryside. If anyone comes home a little muddy after their adventure, they're more than welcome to enjoy a quick rinse before settling in. While I work, the dogs can relax wherever they're most comfortable, with free access to our spacious, secure garden whenever they fancy a sniff or a potter outside. I take regular breaks throughout the day for playtime, cuddles, toilet breaks, and, of course, the occasional well-earned treat! In the afternoon, we head out for another walk before winding down for the evening. Whether your dog loves exploring, playing, snoozing, or simply being close to people, they'll enjoy a relaxed, home-from-home environment with lots of love, attention, and companionship. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We have a large, fully secure garden with high fencing, giving dogs plenty of space to run, play, explore, or simply relax in the fresh air whenever they like. I also make sure that any plants within their reach are dog-safe, so you can have complete peace of mind. Sharing our home is our friendly, spayed Golden Retriever, who absolutely loves the company of other dogs. Whether it's a game of zoomies around the garden, exploring together on walks, or curling up for a well-earned nap, she's always delighted to welcome a new furry friend. Inside, our home is spacious, calm, and relaxed, and dogs can settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or prefers a peaceful snooze after a walk, they'll have plenty of space to feel safe, loved, and right at home.

About: I’ve had a dog as part of my life since I was 12, my Labrador Ben who I cared for throughout his 13 years. This gave me lots of experience with day-to-day dog care, exercise, feeding, routines and understanding a dog’s individual needs. I’m caring, responsible and patient, and I’ll treat every dog I look after as if they were my own. I’ve recently graduated from university as a dietitian and currently have flexible availability while I start my career. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your dog, including weekday walks, drop-in visits and weekends. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and will always agree timings with you in advance. I’ll always follow your dog’s usual routine and your instructions, including their walking, feeding and care needs. I’ll make sure they’re safe and comfortable throughout my visit, provide plenty of attention and companionship, and give them time to exercise and play. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how they’re doing.

“Sam looked after Angus at very short notice and was really flexible to what we needed. Angus had s as great time at home with her family and also had a proper walk each day. Highly recommended.”

About: Hi there, I’m a 24 year-old mum to one. I have recently started my own dog walking business. I have grown up with dogs all of my life currently in the property that I’m in I cannot have a dog of my own so I found myself coming up with the idea of being able to spend time with dogs. I own a two-year-old female Cat called Luffy! My little boy is almost 7 and extremely respectful of all animals! I’m hoping to build a bond with pet owners who can always trust me with their four like family members🩷 I currently don’t work as I’ve opened my dog walking business so I’m hoping to work towards that I am free the whole day from 8 am up until 4:30 pm due to the School run. I’m also free all weekends from early morning till 6 pm as long as the animal is okay with children. I have a fenced off garden that is full of grass, unfortunately I do not offer House sitting in other peoples homes due to the fact that I do have a child so I will need to be in my own home but I can rest assured that all animals will be safe here. I’m happy to provide constant updates whenever requested any animal is welcome on my furniture. again, I do have a cat at home so hopefully they will get along. I will always stick to your feeding schedule and never go off it. I am very respectful for how people train and take care of their pets and I will treat them as if they are my own. Personally I do not have a crate at home obviously due to not having a dog but I wouldn’t really want to get one. I am happy for the pet to roam free in my home as long as the owner is okay with that.

About: Owned dogs from chihuahua, spaniels to a fox‑red lab, my fav, still miss him, not ready to replace. Any dog here gets proper care, company, and calm attention. I’m home all day, so they’re never left alone, always walked, and always looked after. I regularly walk and care for friends’ dogs too, so I’m used to different breeds and personalities. Hoping to build a few regulars and enjoy seeing familiar faces again. Reach out and contact me. I work from home full‑time, with my office in a bright sunroom that opens directly into a secure garden. Dogs can relax on the couch or in their own bed beside my desk — I adjust to each owner’s preferences. The patio door stays open into the fenced garden, giving them safe freedom and fresh air. They get constant attention, company, and reassurance throughout the day, never left alone. For new dogs, I stick to leaded walks in familiar, safe locations until we build a regular routine. Play is based on each dog’s age and ability — fetch for the energetic ones, or gentler games like hide‑and‑seek with treats for older joints. With solid fencing, gates, and a secure layout, your dog stays protected, calm, and cared for every moment they’re with me.
