“Would recommend Christine to everyone! Left my two boys, Oscar and Monty, with Christine for the first time, all day, at short notice. They were well looked after and on pick up they were so settled they almost didn't want to come home! Will be using Christine again in the future”

About: What sets me apart is availability and consistency. I work from home full-time, so dogs are never left alone and always have consistent supervision and company. I live in a calm, spacious two-bedroom house that’s ideal for in-home boarding. I’ve looked after dogs for several years through social platforms as well as for friends and family, and I’m comfortable following different routines and needs. I enjoy regular walks and providing attentive, reliable care. I’m especially well suited to puppies who need structure and senior dogs who benefit from a quieter, closely monitored environment. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m always available for supervision, regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs are never left alone for long periods and are part of my day rather than worked around. I provide a safe and clean home environment where dogs are well attended. Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended and their routines are followed carefully. My home is well suited for boarding, with plenty of space for dogs to settle comfortably, and I make sure walks, feeding, and rest are structured and consistent. I always prioritise a dog’s comfort, safety, and wellbeing while they’re in my care.

“Foxy was very excited to go back to Vera's after her first visit. We received plenty of photo updates and Vera was very flexible with our drop off / pick up times.”

About: I am QLS Level 3 Animal Care, Pet First Aid & Pet CPR qualified, and carry a pet first aid kit with me at all times.   I am a passionate animal lover; I volunteered for Sheffield Retired Greyhound Trust until I moved to the North East in 2024, spending my Saturday mornings caring for and walking rescue greyhounds. I grew up with two of my own dogs. I have been providing dog walking services since 2017, and daycare and boarding since 2019, meaning I have over 15 years of experience taking care of dogs. 🐶   I have a calm and quiet home, and can provide enrichment and plenty of attention, especially if your dog loves a sofa cuddle! I pride myself in being reliable and communicative, so you know your dog is in the best hands. I live near Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve, and hold a Durham Wildlife Trust membership to walk dogs in a variety of different places so they don't get bored. 🌳   I organise a pre-meet before all boarding bookings to check that you and your dog feel comfortable with me, my partner Cal, and our home, to make sure we're a good fit for your dog and vice versa. We don't have any of our own pets, and I only care for one family's pets at a time, to ensure I can provide the best one to one love and care; a real home away from home. 🥰    When your dog is in my care, I treat them as if they were my own. I will provide you with regular photo 'pupdates' on how they are and what they're getting up to. 🐾 I work from home, so I can offer boarding and daycare for dogs and small furries (separately, or together if from the same famiy). I can only cater for dogs with separation anxiety for daycare, but not for boarding. I live in a calm and quiet detached house with a decent sized fenced-in garden, with my partner Cal. We don’t have any of our own pets, and I only care for one family’s pets at a time, to ensure I can provide the best one to one love and care.

“Diane was wonderful with my dog Milo. I could tell he was in great hands, as Diane is lovely and kept me updated throughout the day with lots of photos and videos. Milo looked like he was having a great time, and came home happy and relaxed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Diane again.”

“Marley had the best time with Sophie today. Sophie sent us lots of updates and photos of Marley throughout the day to let us know how he had settled. Marley is such a high energy dog but Sophie was brilliant with him and meeting his needs. Her communication is brilliant and is very responsive to messages. Marley also loved meeting and playing with his new doggy friend Riley. We would happily use Sophie again for dog sitting in the future. Thank you!”

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs and seen them through lots of different life stages including senior dog care and puppy training. I love animals and am home all the time so can provide very attentive care. Your pet would be a part of our family and we can adapt to their routine so they are as comfortable as possible. I work entirely from home so happy to fit around your pets schedule. I can spend up to 4 hours each day providing play or exercise. Other than attending the gym once a day for up to an hour I can ensure your pet has company all day and for around your regular schedule. I have a fenced garden and live on the river path where I can walk your dog to the beach. I have a dog loving fur baby of my own to keep your pet company and ensure they never feel alone

“Abigail looked after my baby fur was she was her own, she kept updating with pics and video about how Daphne was doing. Super recommend and we will use Abigail services again.”

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.
