“Couldn’t be happier with the care provided from Dean! He was so easy to work with and we received lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Can’t recommend him enough!!!”


“Three very happy greyhounds , Laura fed and spent an hour with them whilst we were out all day. Sent us some pics of very relaxed and happy dogs . We came home to some chilled hounds . Will definitely book Laura again”


“Another brilliant pet sitting from Nat! We always receive detailed feedback from each visit from Nat with lots of pictures. Her anecdotes are brilliant and really put my mind at ease that the cats are happy while we're away! Charlie & Nova absolutely love her and it's such a weight off our minds that they're safe and well looked after with someone we trust. Thank you again, would highly recommend Nat to anyone (and already have done so!)”


About: Please note a change in location. Now based in CF41 and not CF5. Humans are responsible for getting their dogs to the new venue for all new bookings. Upcoming and pending bookings made before 14/04/25 are exempt. Arrangements as well as alternative options are available and will be discussed when the pending bookings are about to become firm. I’ve always had dogs in my life and after the death of my old lab in 2017, I took a break from canines, only to be lured by my Cane Corso Hugo. Understanding canine behaviour and their need to be part of a pack with strong boundaries allowing them to become amazing family members that are well behaved and loved. I work from home mostly, 2 days per week. If I have to go to work, then I am able to take my dog to work with me. When I am in work, there will always be another human in the house to ensure that no dogs are ever left alone. They are registered to provide a service through Rover. Although my profile says I accept multiple dogs, this is not accurate. I have set it up this way to ensure that I show available while I am dealing with many pending requests which the don’t book. To counter this, all meet and greets are now chargeable at a rate of £15 a visit. This cost is refunded when a booking is made and paid for. Trial nights can also be arranged at the standard nightly rate and like meet and greets will be set against the main booking. For boarding, All dogs receive a GPS tracker and a QR code tag attached to their collar on arrival. The QR code will have their temporary details attached as well as our contact details . It will be removed at the end of their stay. In the unlikely event of an escape, they can quickly be found and returned to the house. If requested, this can also be supplied for house sitting . I have a fenced garden. Within that garden is a gated yard, all gates have locks. All external doors have smart sensors which let us know if a door has been opened through push notifications and an audible alarm. There is CCTV front of house and in the back yard. We also use video recording when walking, your dog is with us at all times. Hugo is allowed on one sofa in the house and is not allowed upstairs, so no beds. He’s far too heavy. The dogs will have the run of the whole downstairs during the day. At night, your dog will either sleep on the sofa, large dog mat or even crated (if trained). There is plenty of water available and is fed through an automatic system so is replenished after each visit. We are trailing WIFI smart feeding with Hugo. If this proves positive, we can introduce this to boarding dogs with the times programmed as per your dogs usual schedule. Routines and exercise are vital to your dog, so we will do our best to follow through your requests. However, this isn’t always possible and if this impacts on Hugo, we may need to discuss any amendments. I have access to plenty of parks in my area as well as secure transport to take the dogs to the beach or lakes further afield. It is important to me and your dog , that we initially meet with a meet and greet on neutral ground in a public place during daylight hours. This can be done during the weekends and now that the days are getting longer, I am able to visit during the day into the evening. This way safety and security is maintained for all of us you. I encourage all of those involved in the care of your dog to come along to the meet and greet. Children are especially encouraged to come along, as they can also give insights to the pet that adults sometimes forget. I am happy to decline a booking if a meet and great cannot be agreed. I will only accept 1 boarding booking at a time. Where there is more than 1 dog, they must live or be well socialised together already. I have a doggy day room with TV, Music, Sofa and soft lighting. The day room is secure and outside noise is minimised. After recently working with some dogs with anxiety, we decided to use plug in pheromones help to reduce this. I don’t like seeing dogs in a stressed state. If you don’t want the pheromones switched on, please let me know. You will expect the room to be deep cleaned before you arrive and cleaned every day. Most areas downstairs have a smart underfloor heating system and are coated in a protective layer which means if your boy has an accident. It can quickly be mopped up with no long lasting damage. If required, you can receive a daily update of your dogs adventures. These are lighthearted and positive updates which focus on how your dog is getting on. If possible, photos and videos will be taken and will be sent to you along with the updates. These are usually sent at 2200, and I find that this can help with managing any worries you may have. In some cases, the update will be sent first thing in the morning. Although, this is not a guarantee and as the holiday progresses, you may find that the written updates slow. If this is the case, it will be due to your dog settling in really well. My partner is involved in the care with me. We do this as a whole unit along with Hugo. A dog will naturally warm to one of us quicker and this is encouraged. That person will be the main carer and will look out for that dog throughout their stay.

“Alex was really understanding of Freddie's needs and gave me peace of mind that Freddie was doing well whilst I was at work. Freddie loved his drop-in sessions, and was understandably excited for them. It was great to see how confident Alex was around Freddie who is a large dog and can be very playful.”


“Connor was great, turned up on time and gave my dog Rory a full hour of attention! Left the place looking better than how I left it and Rory slept until my partner got home so must of been a great hour with Conor! Lots of photos and messages throughout the drop in visit too!”


“Amy came to look after my dog whilst we were at a wedding. She came for meet & greet the day before & it was clear our dog took a shine to her straight away. Amy stayed at our house for few hours she kept us updated with pictures & updates. She took her for walk,played ball & gave lots belly rubs to our dog. I have never left our dog before & would definitely be using Amy again . She was friendly & I felt as ease knowing our dog was being so well looked after. Thanks so much Amy from us & Stella Dog ?”


About: When i was born, my parents also got a Golden retriever! I grew up with him and we have had English Pointers ever since! And musn't forget about our Black labrador. I have also been doing dog sitting for a few years across my schooling life, and now im at university i thought id continue the trend... I am currently at university (Studying chiropractic) and have between 2-8 hours a day to provide drop ins, walks, or overnight stays! I am also free on weekends if needed. I like the outdoors and nature (I climb and surf) so i am happy to spend as long as it takes to provide the dog enough exercise and company! I unfortunately cant provide care for your dog in my home! Sorry, this may change soon but my availability is good enough to come over when ever the dog needs!!

About: I absolutely adore all animals! I am patient, kind and caring. I would love to take care, walk and feed your fur babies for you when needed. I have had experience house sitting for family pets as well as friends and I know some great spots for dog walks! I currently work Monday-Friday from 1pm-7:30pm as a swimming teacher. However if I do not have any lessons until 4pm then I am not needed to be in at 1pm, so I can be available late afternoons on some days. I always have the mornings free for walks or check ins. And I am also willing to do sleep ins after work. I live with parents so I’m unable to have pets at home. I am more than willing to stay at the owners home! I drive so I can easily commute, I am fully trustworthy and am simply only in this for some companionship.

“Highly recommend Helen, if you need someone reliable & very trustworthy, Helen is the one. She stepped in at short notice, and did a fabulous job at looking after the 2 cats. A very satisfied customer”


“Sasha is really professional and kept me updated throughout her visit to my boy. She sent me vids and pics, and he seemed to really like her! I can't recommend Sasha enough, and I will definitely be using her services again. 10 out of 10 xx”
