About: Loving Family Dog Care – Where Your Pup Feels at Home Hi there! We're a warm, dog-loving family offering personalized and attentive care for your furry friend. We’re not just dog sitters — we provide a safe, loving home where every dog becomes part of our little pack. We have a young daughter who absolutely adores dogs. She’s gentle, playful, and full of love — pups big and small enjoy her company and energy! We create a friendly, calm, and family-like atmosphere where your dog will feel secure and truly cared for. What sets us apart? 🐾 Individual attention – We care for a small number of dogs at a time, so your pup will never feel like “just another guest.” 🐾 Playtime & cuddles – We engage with your dog on their terms — whether that means fetch in the garden or quiet snuggles on the couch. 🐾 Puppy care – We’re experienced with basic puppy routines like house training, crate naps, and gentle socialization. 🐾 Senior support – We’re attentive to older dogs’ slower pace, special diets, and medication schedules. 🐾 Administering meds – Pills, drops, or special treatments? We follow instructions closely and with care. 🐾 Routine-focused – We stick to your pup’s home routine to help them feel relaxed and comfortable. We treat every dog as if they were our own — with patience, love, and lots of tail-wagging fun. Whether you're going away for a day or a week, you can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands, receiving genuine, family-style care. Let us know about your dog’s needs — we’re happy to accommodate and always ready to meet a new furry friend! There’s almost always someone at home, so we’re very flexible and able to adjust to your dog’s specific routine and needs with love, patience and play. We only offer care in our home, where safety, trust, and comfort come first. Our house is fully dog-friendly and thoughtfully arranged to keep your pet safe and happy. The stairs are secured, our garden is fully fenced and locked, and there are no dangerous objects or small items around that a curious pup could swallow. Food and water bowls are placed in a quiet, designated spot — away from foot traffic and distractions. If needed, we can create a calm, separate space for your dog to rest or feel secure, especially during adjustment periods. We’re happy to follow any specific rules or routines your dog is used to, including crate use, feeding schedules, or quiet time. We provide a clean, supervised, and loving environment where your dog can feel at home — with lots of attention, structure, and affection.
