Doggy Day Care Portishead

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the majority of my life! I greatly miss my old English sheepdogs - Alfie and Digby, who I was lucky to have for 15 years. From training, to dog sitting, to being with them in their final days, I will never forget the memories I have with them. Aside from Alfie and Digby, I have looked after many breeds including: Poodle mixes, Labradors, Spaniels, Sharpeis, Staffies, Terriers, Dachshunds and Weimaraners I lived with Betsy the cocker spaniel for 9 months in shared accommodation and did everything from feeding, walking and taking her to the vets. I’m looking to either be in your home for safety and calm, or be the friendly face that visits them, plays with them and takes them for walks! Having looked after so many dogs, I understand the care, love and commitment they need. I live in a cottage with a third of an acre garden, perfect for dogs. The top of the garden is secure, whilst the bottom end has much lower boundaries. If your dog needs quieter stimuli, I am on very quiet road which has little traffic. I like the pups to have blankets and toys with smells from home to increase their comfort staying with me. In your home, knowing where essentials are, understanding any underlying signs of discomfort and, what to do if a situation arises are really important to me. I want your pets to feel as loved as they are by you!

About: I have had dogs since I was a child and have always had a special bond with them. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful young pups and senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. I provide loving, reliable care and treat every dog as part of my family. I currently work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and provide attentive care throughout the day. I can accommodate dog boarding during weekdays and weekends, ensuring pets receive plenty of companionship, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for pets in my spacious home with a large garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I also have my own friendly 3-year-old Cavapoo, Poppy, who loves having canine company and can help your dog feel happy and relaxed. I always treat every pet with care, patience, and attention, making sure they feel secure and part of the family while they are staying with me.

About: !!!IMPORTANT: I’ll have bathroom renovations in July. If your dog(s) is sensitive to noises, please do not book! Thank you!:) Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 7 years old, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I moved from Hungary to the UK in October 2025, and after our dog left in December, the house has felt very empty without a pet around. Although I became an engineer, I always loved spending time with animals, and back home friends often trusted me to look after their cats while they were away. I’m calm, reliable, patient, and currently have plenty of free time for walks, visits, playtime, and giving your pets lots of attention and care. I work from home full-time, so I’m available for pet care all day long. I can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule for walks, playtime, meals, and cuddles. I’m also happy to do overnight boarding or weekend stays whenever needed. I have a fully fenced yard and a safe, pet-friendly home where your dog would spend most of the time inside with me. The house is calm and secure, and I can crate your dog if needed. Playtime is always supervised in the fenced garden.

“Coco stayed with Donna and family for two days of day care this week. She was very quick to respond to messages and told me all I needed to know beforehand. Coco literally pulled us to Donna’s door when we arrived for the second day! After collecting Coco she is relaxed and happy so has clearly had just the right amount of exercise and must have felt secure and comfortable during her stay. I would definitely recommend Donna and hope that she and the children will have Coco to stay again in the near future!”

“Frances is a star. Trixie had an incredible stay with her and was absolutely elated throughout the day - I can tell from the photos and how happy she was when I picked her up. Since Trixie is getting older and currently has some back issues, Frances was accommodating with shorter walks and delivering meds. And still made my girl feel like she was having the best day ever. I couldn't have asked for more!”

About: 📍 Currently actively booking for mid August to mid September 2026 with very flexible availability 📍 Hey there, my name is Rebecca! I'm a 27 year old vet student and pet sitter. I have lots of great experience with a variety of species through my vet training and life in general! I have been involved in both the cattery and dog shelter of the Galway SPCA. I also worked closely with small mammals, and rescued my colleagues from a loose ferret once! I discovered a love of sighthounds in particular and always really enjoy working with them. I have been casually pet sitting for the past five years, until last year when I began using another app that was popular in my area. I had several regular dog visit/ walk clients - new puppies to the more mature. I am happy to do on and off-lead walking, where appropriate and safe. I will follow instructions on whatever training you are working on with your pet. I am confident administering medication. Unfortunately, I cannot accept very strong or difficult to handle dogs due to chronic back pain. I would be keen to build a trusting relationship with any pet I care for and strive for respectful and honest communication with pet owners. I give pets my full attention and aim to leave them tuckered out but happy! I send a detailed update after my visit including some photos. I'm always careful to include any concerns. ✅ Please Note: House Sitting: I am not currently staying overnight in client’s houses. This option is suitable if you would like to have me sit with your pet during the day/evening, while at work or socialising. Please get in touch to discuss! 😊 Boarding/Day Care: I live in an apartment which has a small balcony and unfenced patio space - suitable for quick potty breaks. There are lots of easily accessible nice walks in the area for longer exercise. Walks: Available to pick up/drop off and supervise visits to local secure dog paddocks. My Uni schedule varies each week but I will aim to keep my calendar as updated as possible. I am keen to build a base of regular/semi-regular clients, having recently moved back to North Somerset. There are times when I am required on-campus 9am-5pm but I do my best to be flexible. Do get in touch if there's anything you'd like to discuss - I'm more than happy to answer any queries 😁 I am always careful entering and exiting the house to prevent any escapes. I diligently use any equipment or restraint advised by owners to keep everyone safe. I always do my best to read an animals behaviour so as not to cross their boundaries and ensure everyone is as safe and happy as possible during the visit. I welcome owner advice about individual pets as they usually know their animal best!

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs, currently have 2 British bulldogs. They are both 3 years old and one was a rescue. We will treat your dogs like our own, they can sit and cuddle us on the sofas no where is out of bounds. There is always someone home so your dogs will never be left. We walk twice a day with our dogs and the back door is always open to the garden. We have lovely walks around us with huge fields opposite and woods. I walk the dogs once in the morning and once in the evening. I have woods and fields opposite my house. I have the back door open all day so garden is always available. I have a large fenced garden. There are also gated fields opposite my house. Dogs are welcome in any part of the house. I have a big kitchen/ lounge where they can sleep with sofas.

About: Over 20 years dog and cat experience, I'm reliable, loving and fit. Nurturing and playful with lots of time and attention to give to your dog. I'm a writer so have plenty of time to walk and care for pets. I find they curl up under my desk or on my lap while I work. In the summer they garden with me. I have a big home close to the coastal path with secure gates and CCTV. I provide a safe, loving, home from home stay. Dogs that I walk tend to want to stay with me! I only look after dogs exclusively from one family so the environment is peaceful and calm.

“We were a bit unsure about leaving our puppy Wilbur with someone, as he’s only 11 months and very full of energy! But Tasha was super friendly, calm, and did an amazing job with him. She sent us photos and a video, and it was clear he was having the best time. Wilbur came back happy, relaxed, and properly chilled, he even went to bed early after such an exciting day! Definitely worth the 25-minute drive, and we’d love for him to stay with Tasha again. 🐾”

“Another great stay with Noey for Dash. She really is a life saver, agreeing to have Dash just the night before when I realised I would be gone for too long for him to stay home alone. He always has a great time and she socialises him for me with other dogs in a safe and caring way. I thoroughly recommend!”
