“Bella had a fabulous time with Gary and his partner Anita.during her stay. Bella was taken for very long walks by Gary, which being a highly energetic Patterdale , was perfect as she absolutely loves her walks! Gary kept me updated everyday with how Bella was and sent me photos with updates, which kept me completely reassured that she was ok and was having great fun! She loved playing with lots of toys and also received lots of cuddles, which she loved and Gary & Anita treated her as if she was part of the family and she really loved being there with them both. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gary and will definitely be booking Bella in to stay there again in the future!”
“Thank you Hannah and Patrick for taking such good care of my baby Sky. She came home tired but happy and had obviously had a wonderful time 😊 thank you too for the pictures which always keep my mind at rest. I will definitely be booking with you guys again xx”
“The Rover process was easy from start to finish with the ease of the app and communication. It was our first use of Rover and with our boy staying with Sean. It was a fairly last minute booking but Sean made the process smooth from the initial meet and greet right up to collecting Chester. I absolutely loved the photos and feedback that I received regularly and felt most at ease when I collected Chester, in seeing just how comfortable he was there. Our boy has quite a strict routine around food and walks and Sean was brilliant at keeping him in his routine and making him feel that home from home comfort. I would definitely use the service again and want to thank Sean and his family for accommodating Chester into his home and caring for him so well.”
“Ayan was a very reliable sitter. He kept me updated regularly throughout Milo’s stay. Milo seemed to have had such a good time with his family & dog, Romeo. I will definitely be using his services again”
“Danielle is great and really communicative in the lead up to tigger’s stay and during his stay, I received regular picture updates. Tigger had a great time and was at ease from the moment he arrived!”
About: Hi, I’m Lesley! I’ve been an animal lover all my life and have over 18 years of hands-on experience looking after cats, dogs, and small furry animals.

Because I work remotely, I have total flexibility from Monday to Sunday. I'm always around to give your pets the attention they deserve, and I'm very reliable.

“Brilliant all round, we were confident our two dogs were left in safe hands with lots of love and cuddles. Stuart was able to accommodate our last minute request, we will definitely be using him again in the future.”
About: Based in the Gillingham (Kent). I have taken care of many types of dogs and cats since I was a child. Many of my neighbours and family have pets and have relied on me to walk and feed them whilst they have been at work, away on holiday or in hospital. I work full time and will be mostly available on weekends. I work from home wed- friday so I will be able to house sit wed- sun 😊. I will take care of your pet any way you would like me to. Everyone is different and has different needs or expectations. Always best to allow the owner to take lead.
About: I’ve always lived with dogs - childhood pets, dog sitting when studying and now having my own dogs. Currently we have a young setter whom we trained from a puppy. I have experience in looking after a range of dogs but the majority of my experience is with spaniels (my previous dog was a springer spaniel), retrievers and Labrador’s and their needs. I’m used to high energy dogs who need lots of walking and game playing. I have experienced first hand the transformation in a dog once it has sufficient exercise and stimulation, so will always look to ensure that your dog has enough walking and play. Our setter has suffered from separation anxiety, so I very aware of the challenges of this & the resulting behaviour. We have worked hard to overcome this & with the right routine in place can now leave him for a couple of hours. We are also working very hard with his recall & making progress, I have honestly found training a ongoing personal achievement and has strengthened our bond hugely. With active dogs, in and out of puddles etc. I am very aware regular brushing is essential to keep their coat untangled and clean. Personally I think this is a lovely way to spent sometime with your dog when they are calm in the evening and happy to spend time with your dog in this way. I’m work from home part time supporting my partners carpentry business. I have two children (4&7) so have school runs twice a day. I’m around the majority of the day otherwise. I walk our dog after school drop off for at least an hour, we go to local open spaces or drive to the country parks. I will take him for another shorter walk either before pick up or later in the day once my partner is home. I'm happy to take additional walks if this is needed for your dog or play scent games in the house & when I'm home they are always free to go in the garden. I have a two year old friendly neutered male English Setter in my home. He likes all dogs and if they are energetic he will play with them. If they are senior he respects this and is gentle. I walk with him for over an hour a day and often go for runs. I can walk other dogs with or without him. If your dog was in our home, they would be in the same space as him on the ground floor and in the garden. Dogs are not allowed upstairs in the bedrooms but provide beds in each room, so they are able to to be with me throughout the day & are not left alone. Whilst the dog will never be left alone around the children (and my children have been around dogs all their lives), it will need to be happy to be in a family environment. Our setter (like a Labrador) is happy to try and eat anything! During mealtimes, our dog and any visiting dogs will be put in a different room. He is a counter surfer and so surfaces and tables are clear of food aside from mealtimes, so they do not get anything that might upset their tummies. I'm very vigilant on keeping any non dog friendly foods well away (raisins, chocolate etc.)
“Ivy had a wonderful time staying with Ian and Alice. Communication was excellent throughout, and we really appreciated the regular updates and beautiful photos. We’d happily recommend them.”
About: I have loved and looked after dogs of all shapes and sizes my whole life. My house will be a home from home for your best friend. I am a trained Dog Mentor (previously working with dogs in schools). I’m a teacher so can only provide boarding and care on set weekends and some school holidays. I would love my own dog but my work demands mean that it wouldn’t be practical. I am really missing the companionship of animals and I’m not in it for the money though the money insures me and keeps us safe. I live on an estate with a closed in area ideal for dog exercise, a large green and I’m very close to riverside pathways for lovely walkies. I have an enclosed fenced garden and a dog savvy cat who will stay out of the way. My son has also been around dogs all of his life and has a gentle nature with animals.
About: I have experience caring for cats and providing dog walking services, and I truly enjoy working with animals.I am a patient and gentle sitter who takes the time to build trust with each pet. I’m especially good with shy or nervous cats, giving them space while helping them feel comfortable.I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, whether they are energetic or more shy, and adapt my approach to suit them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I am available in the early mornings for feeding and dog walking, as well as in the afternoons. I am reliable and make sure to stick to each pet’s routine. I also have more flexibility on weekends, so I can spend extra time with pets and adapt to their needs I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by following their usual routine as closely as possible. When visiting a pet owner’s home, I am respectful, keep everything clean and tidy, and carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and care. I do not offer overnight stays in the owner’s home, but I can provide boarding in my own home for cats and small dogs. My home is a calm, safe, and secure environment, suitable for smaller pets where they will receive plenty of attention and care. I always prioritise safety by keeping pets secure indoors, using leads on walks, and making sure doors and gates are properly closed. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they are away
“Tracey is a lovely lady who was absolutely amazing with Lunar, Tracey and I had daily contact and lots of photos and videos sent to me which was lovely and comforting to see. Lunar had all of her needs taken care of, Lunar was happy and looked after with great care and love which I am so greatfull for. I would 100% recommend Tracey and would definitely book again if Lunar needs looking after in the future.”
“As our dog has some behavioural issues, so we were worried no one would be willing to look after him for 5 days, but Dorota was more than willing to try. We got constant updates including photos and videos which helped since we missed him. She was very sweet and Teddy seemed to love her!”
“Ace spent 8 nights with Natalie. She sent through regular photos and updates. We could see how well Ace was doing and how happy he was. It meant we could enjoy our holiday without worrying about the dog!”

“From our first meeting, we felt completely reassured that our two cats would be in excellent hands. Mandy is very thorough and organised, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. She kept us updated daily while we were away, which gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend Mandy and will book her again for future trips.”
“Hazel was truly amazing!!! Our cat was pregnant and unfortunately we had already got a holiday booked. We left our pregnant kitty safe in Hazel’s care. She gave us twice daily video updates, she was knowledgeable, intuitive and paid great attention to detail, knowing our cat was going to give birth any day soon whilst we were away! The kittens were so well looked after as was mum, all their needs were met. It’s fair to say Hazel went above and beyond, doing lots of other little jobs such as turning lights on, washing blankets, charging batteries etc. She helped make sure our ‘kitty camera’ was always in the right place & that the kittens had fresh bedding, mummy was given lots of special time and rewards/treats. It made us feel so happy and reassured. We never had to worry once. If anything I would look forward to the next update, it made us feel like home wasn’t far away and that our Cat and her kittens were being looked after exactly the same as we would have looked after them! Hazel made it such a great inclusive experience. Her communication is fantastic. Also a massive thank you to her partner, as he supported Hazel in looking after our little brood. What an amazing team, thank you. We look forward to having you look after our cats again. Couldn’t ask for more”
“Terry was informative and kept me up to date with daily rover cards. He respected my property and my cat Lily with her unsettled behaviour, giving affection when wanted and discipline when needed, the way I would do myself. All her feeding and toileting needs were met, and as I live in a flat he disposed of litter as I asked. I was worried about leaving lily for 2 wks, she hasn't experienced that before, but she was soon settled and content on my return which shows she was not overly stressed when I was away.”
“Really liked Faith from the moment she turned up for meet and greet. She gave us so much confidence that she is a real animal lover and passionate about her job . Highly recommend her . Thank you”
“I was really pleased with the care my cats received while I was away. Heidi was excellent — always on time, sent regular updates after every visit, and left lovely, thoughtful messages. The cats looked relaxed and comfortable with her, which gave me real peace of mind. I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and car”
“Angela is an amazing Cat sitter! So patient and trustworthy, always reassured that our baby is in safe hands with her! Got 2 more bookings with Angela and would recommend to anyone looking for a cat sitter 🥰”
“I'm very happy I found Lesley to look after my Princess Jazz when I'm away. Jazzy lost her brother and she's grieving, she doesn't like visitors much but Lesley was able to feed her from her hand the first time they met. I was amazed.”

About: Over the years I've adopted many rescue cats, my 10 year old tabby was rescued from the side of a road at approximately 6 weeks old. He has never left my side since. I've also looked after friends cats whilst they are away, often timid and needing reassurance and calmness which leads on to them trusting me and enjoying cuddles.
“It's been great having Jason look after my boy, they get on very well and Jason was good at sending updates after each visit. He took care of everything my cat needed and my cat loved his play time as well. I would definitely have Jason look after him again”
“Hannah was brilliant yet again ensuring our cats were taken care of whilst we were away for a week. We can't thank Hannah enough and we'd definitely book with her again! ”

I work part time at Lloyds bank 3 days a week where the rest of the time I’m at home or out with my doggies!

By afternoon I usually like to take my girls to leyborne lakes, shorne country park and venture somewhere new! No requirements at all- all doggies are allowed on furniture and can make noise, making sure they’re as comfy as can be! I can be fully flexible to your babies needs and their schedules as I want them to feel as at home as can be ❤️
About: I've had a strong connection with animals since childhood, and over time this has grown into a genuine focus on calm, reliable cat care. I specialise in cats, offering both drop-in visits and house sitting, and I always prioritise keeping each cat's normal routine and environment as consistent as possible to help reduce stress while their owner is away. I've cared for a wide range of personalities, from independent and reserved cats to affectionate and social ones, and I adapt my approach to suit each one. Care typically includes feeding, fresh water, litter tray maintenance, enrichment or quiet companionship where appropriate and regular updates for owners. Your cat's wellbeing, safety and routine are always my priority. My focus is simple: consistent, calm in-home care that keeps cats comfortable and owners reassured while they're away.

“Felicity went above and beyond to care for my Molly at short notice. Molly was so well looked after. Felicity and her family were wonderful and clearly gave her lots of love, along with lovely Ash. Molly came home absolutely knackered, which says it all! Super appreciate the photos too ✨ Thank you so much and would love for Molly to return again 🥰”

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for taking such great care of Manika. From the very start, you were so kind and reassuring letting me meet you beforehand really helped settle my nerves as a new puppy mum. Manika has been so calm and happy after each visit, and it’s clear she feels safe . Thank you again for making this transition such a positive experience for both of us”

“Oreo has had the best day today,he gets very well looked after,I can’t thank Ian and Alice enough,they always go above and beyond for Oreo,perfect hosts,can’t thank them enough,”
About: I've grown up with dogs, my dog as a teen was my best friend. We went everywhere together and she was always by my side, so I truly know how much a dog becomes part of a family and how much they mean to you. I've also had multiple rescue cats over 20 years, my current cat i found at 6 weeks old and hes now 10. Im always nervous to leave him so completely understand if you are too. 4 years ago I started looking after other people's dogs and soon gained regular dog sitting. I also took on 2 dogs as a temporary foster care while the owner was unwell. Taking care of dogs isn't just a job, it's a passion. At the moment im at home so can provide care for your pets majority of the day. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat i can't accommodate any animals in my own home, but im more than happy to pet sit in the pets own home. I also have 2 children who loves animals just as much as i do, they've been taught how to take care of animals and know how to respect an animals boundaries. I currently have availability between 9 and 2 on weekdays without my children but if your pets are good with kids then these hours can be extended later and during weekends. My children absolutely adore animals and know how to care for them. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat, I can't accept dogs into my home. I will follow any routine that your pet needs in your home, follow any guidance on how your dog is walked, personalities, etc. And I will take care of them just like I would my own.

About: Hello, I am Tracey and I have had dogs all my life and can’t imagine a home without one! I have lots of years of experience caring for them and my main aim is to make them feel like what I offer is a home from home experience when you can’t be with them. I offer a calm, loving home where your dog is treated as family and as one of our own pets. With my 3 grown up daughters and partner living at home this can be a busy household especially at weekends but there are enough rooms for quiet zones if your pet needs some time alone and there is certainly the opportunity for lots of attention and those all important walks, playtime and cuddles. Your pet will have the company of our family dog Winnie who is a 3 year old Lhasa Apso – she looks like a teddy bear – who will love the company and companionship of a new friend to visit every now and then! If you did want to consider us, then I would suggest a meet and greet to see if our furry friends are comfortable with each other. I only host one household at a time so your furry friend will enjoy a safe and exclusive stay with the use of a safe enclosed garden. I work from home everyday so I am always around to give them my attention. They will never be fully left alone without prior arrangement with yourself. Where we live is full of green fields and places to explore on walks. There is plenty of space downstairs in our house for your dog to be kept at night either with their own bedding or crated and off course before booking with us we would go through all of your dogs requirements and routine. I offer one offs and regular day care and overnight boarding. Please just get in touch to discuss what it is you are looking for… I currently work full time at home so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs and adjust to their needs when needed. I have a big fenced garden and my friendly dog to keep your fur baby company, I can easily crate your dog if needed/suit to their needs.
“Alison has been amazing with our puppy Issy. From the moment Issy starts to walk towards her house she is excited and can't wait to spend the day with Alison, her family, also Mabel and Edie her 2 beautiful dogs. Alison provides good feedback and photos of Issy's fun day. I can go to work know that our little sausage is well cared for like she is one of their own. Thank you Alison”

“Our first 2 training walks with faith have been amazing. She has so much patience and I. Can highly recommend her. Training a reactive dog is so lonely and hard and faith is giving us hope for the future”
About: Ever since I was little, I’ve had a connection and deep love for dogs. Although I’ve never owned a dog personally, I have grew up in a life that has constantly been surrounded by animals. I had a cat which I cherished and took great care of. And I have spent weeks at people’s houses helping them take care of their pets, mainly being dogs. Nothing makes me happier than seeing the faces of each dog I meet light up and jump for joy once they’re fully acquainted with me. I’m currently working part-time at the weekends but am fully flexible throughout the week for pet care. Monday to Friday from 9am to 7pm. I service dog walking but nevertheless, the safety of the pet is of the utmost priority. Without ensuring the safety of our animals, we cannot guarantee the safety of ourselves and those around us.

Our setter (like a Labrador) is happy to try and eat anything! During mealtimes, our dog and any visiting dogs will be put in a different room. He is a counter surfer and so surfaces and tables are clear of food aside from mealtimes, so they do not get anything that might upset their tummies. I'm very vigilant on keeping any non dog friendly foods well away (raisins, chocolate etc.)
“Terry is consistent, kind and very professional. His timekeeping is excellent and Terry is very reliable. Loki loves his walks with Terry and knows when he arrives just by the car door closing now! Thank you so much Terry - we appreciate all that you do for our Loki!”

About: I've grown up with dogs, my dog as a teen was my best friend. We went everywhere together and she was always by my side, so I truly know how much a dog becomes part of a family and how much they mean to you. I've also had multiple rescue cats over 20 years, my current cat i found at 6 weeks old and hes now 10. Im always nervous to leave him so completely understand if you are too. 4 years ago I started looking after other people's dogs and soon gained regular dog sitting. I also took on 2 dogs as a temporary foster care while the owner was unwell. Taking care of dogs isn't just a job, it's a passion. At the moment im at home so can provide care for your pets majority of the day. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat i can't accommodate any animals in my own home, but im more than happy to pet sit in the pets own home. I also have 2 children who loves animals just as much as i do, they've been taught how to take care of animals and know how to respect an animals boundaries. I currently have availability between 9 and 2 on weekdays without my children but if your pets are good with kids then these hours can be extended later and during weekends. My children absolutely adore animals and know how to care for them. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat, I can't accept dogs into my home. I will follow any routine that your pet needs in your home, follow any guidance on how your dog is walked, personalities, etc. And I will take care of them just like I would my own.
About: For the past 6 years I lived with my partners family who included 10 dogs, 20+ guinea pigs, 3 chickens, a hamster and a pig. Safe to say I love animals! I now live with my partner and our little corgi Liz. The 10 dogs were dachshunds, chihuahuas, Pomeranian, pekingese, French bulldog and an Afghan hound. I worked from home so was one of the primary carers for the dogs and I absolutely loved it. I have cared for them through all the good times and the bad. I have experience with a range of their healthcare issues including slipped discs, seizures, administering medications and partial paralysis. This has made me learn a lot about the dogs and given me insight into how to manage the unexpected. I’m currently on maternity leave until April 2027 so have great availability. Once back at work I work 3 days in an office and the rest from home so would be able to easily fit in your besties around my schedule. I have a securely fenced garden and the friendliest corgi to keep any friends company. She gets along with every dog she meets and loves to play. I have separation gates so if needed I can keep your furry friend separated from my dog, if they prefer to be alone for any reason. Pet safety and happiness is my priority, so I always have lots of water bowls, cool mats and stimulating toys for them available. I also have crates available if this is what makes you and your furry friend feel safe and happy.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I cannot imagine my life without them. Growing up, my family had cats, hamsters, and guinea pigs before I finally convinced my parents to let me have my beautiful Labrador, Reuben. Since then, my love for animals has only grown. I’ve been trusted by friends, family and neighbours to care for their pets since I was around 11 years old, and I love spending time with animals. Whether it’s a puppy bursting with energy or an older dog who prefers a slower pace. I am happy to adapt to their personalities and routines. I am experienced in caring for dogs from 8-week old puppies through to frail senior dogs, including administering medication when needed. I know that every pet is different, so I will always take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well looked after. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal with the same kindness, patience and attention that I’d want for my own. I have a flexible routine that allows me to offer daytime pet visits and dog walks throughout the week. I carefully schedule bookings around my own dogs needs to ensure that I can give every pet my full attention and provide reliable, unhurried care. As I’m currently only offering pet visits and dog walks, I will be caring for your pet in the environment they know and feel most comfortable in- their own home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. I will always follow your instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding routines, administering medication, refreshing water or making sure your pet gets the exercise, playtime or quiet company they need. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always come first. I’ll make sure doors, gates and windows are secure, keep walks safe and suited to your dogs needs, and treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos after each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe and well looked after.
About: SPECIALIZING IN SOLO DOG WALKING ONLY I offer one to one walking, so each and every dog gets the attention they deserve! Hi, I’m Marilyn, and after going through the menopause I realized life’s too short. So I decided to follow my passion: dogs! I would love to meet your pups. Thank you :) Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I dedicate my time to providing reliable, personalised care and training for pets across Medway. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise and companionship they need, while keeping owners updated with photos, videos and regular communication. Caring for animals isn't just part of my job, it's something I genuinely love doing every day. I believe pets are happiest when their routine remains as normal as possible, which is why I provide care tailored to each individual animal's needs. In a pet owner's home, I follow their established routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, toilet breaks and companionship, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. For dog walking services, I provide engaging walks suited to your dog's age, breed and energy levels, with fresh water, paw cleaning and plenty of attention afterwards. During drop-in visits and pet sitting, I make sure pets receive not only practical care but also affection, interaction and reassurance. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own, giving owners complete peace of mind that their beloved companion is in safe and caring hands.

About: I have had at least one dog in my life ever year since I was born due to being raised in a family of dog owners. Only up until recently when my jack russell, Molly passed away, have I been without a dog. Unfortunately my role as manager within the civil service means my work schedule does not allow me the time to care for a dog of my own full time. However I have two-three work from home days a week and often spend my weekends reading, writing or going for walks in the local area so I thought it be a good opportunity to offer my services to those who may need short term dog sitting. I have often dog and cat sat for family members and friends over the years, making it a little side hussle from the age of 18. My friends would often joke saying I prefer the company of a pet over humans, and I can say they are probably correct. I would welcome each pet into my home with love and care, ensuring they feel safe and have the best sleepovers they could possibly wish for. Also always happy to update with lots of pictures! I work at least 2 days from home a week but can be more on occasion and also have most weekends free. These dates do change depending on work schedule. I live in a spacious two bed flat, that has a shared fenced garden. However, I love going on walks so I will walk your dogs as often as you require them too. I will keep them stimulated with toys and provide them with a comfortable place to sleep. I wish to provide a space for your dogs to feel safe, happy and cared for.
About: I have been caring for doggies since the age of 10, from small chihuahuas to big staffies and retrievers! I have my own two extremely sweet, loving and playful girls - Judy, and Ava that I’ve had since a pup. They are my babies, have been socialised plenty growing up and are amazing around other animals! I have a huge garden for high energy furry ones, and a comfy sofa for the cuddlers, so if you have a preference in separating your fur baby please let me know! Having looked after many different doggies, I’ve had the amazing experience to meet so many dogs with different personalities! I’m fully flexible, ready to meet the needs of you and your doggies, whenever you need it 😊 I am a full time university student studying law, that works from home. I work part time at Lloyds bank 3 days a week where the rest of the time I’m at home or out with my doggies! My garden is all fenced around at almost 6ft high and big enough for large dogs to have a good run! I always let me girls out for a morning toilet and play around 7am followed by a walk to the park 2 mins away and breakfast when home and then some rest and cuddles on the sofa. By afternoon I usually like to take my girls to leyborne lakes, shorne country park and venture somewhere new! No requirements at all- all doggies are allowed on furniture and can make noise, making sure they’re as comfy as can be! I can be fully flexible to your babies needs and their schedules as I want them to feel as at home as can be ❤️
About: From feeding and playing with animals filling busy homes to caring for older individual cats or dogs, every animal deserves the best treatment and compassion.

I am available 7 days a week. I have a fenced garden with no other animals at the property ensuring a safe environment for your best friend.

“Thank you Hannah and Patrick for taking such good care of my baby Sky. She came home tired but happy and had obviously had a wonderful time 😊 thank you too for the pictures which always keep my mind at rest. I will definitely be booking with you guys again xx”
“The Rover process was easy from start to finish with the ease of the app and communication. It was our first use of Rover and with our boy staying with Sean. It was a fairly last minute booking but Sean made the process smooth from the initial meet and greet right up to collecting Chester. I absolutely loved the photos and feedback that I received regularly and felt most at ease when I collected Chester, in seeing just how comfortable he was there. Our boy has quite a strict routine around food and walks and Sean was brilliant at keeping him in his routine and making him feel that home from home comfort. I would definitely use the service again and want to thank Sean and his family for accommodating Chester into his home and caring for him so well.”
About: I’ve always lived with dogs - childhood pets, dog sitting when studying and now having my own dogs. Currently we have a young setter whom we trained from a puppy. I have experience in looking after a range of dogs but the majority of my experience is with spaniels (my previous dog was a springer spaniel), retrievers and Labrador’s and their needs. I’m used to high energy dogs who need lots of walking and game playing. I have experienced first hand the transformation in a dog once it has sufficient exercise and stimulation, so will always look to ensure that your dog has enough walking and play. Our setter has suffered from separation anxiety, so I very aware of the challenges of this & the resulting behaviour. We have worked hard to overcome this & with the right routine in place can now leave him for a couple of hours. We are also working very hard with his recall & making progress, I have honestly found training a ongoing personal achievement and has strengthened our bond hugely. With active dogs, in and out of puddles etc. I am very aware regular brushing is essential to keep their coat untangled and clean. Personally I think this is a lovely way to spent sometime with your dog when they are calm in the evening and happy to spend time with your dog in this way. I’m work from home part time supporting my partners carpentry business. I have two children (4&7) so have school runs twice a day. I’m around the majority of the day otherwise. I walk our dog after school drop off for at least an hour, we go to local open spaces or drive to the country parks. I will take him for another shorter walk either before pick up or later in the day once my partner is home. I'm happy to take additional walks if this is needed for your dog or play scent games in the house & when I'm home they are always free to go in the garden. I have a two year old friendly neutered male English Setter in my home. He likes all dogs and if they are energetic he will play with them. If they are senior he respects this and is gentle. I walk with him for over an hour a day and often go for runs. I can walk other dogs with or without him. If your dog was in our home, they would be in the same space as him on the ground floor and in the garden. Dogs are not allowed upstairs in the bedrooms but provide beds in each room, so they are able to to be with me throughout the day & are not left alone. Whilst the dog will never be left alone around the children (and my children have been around dogs all their lives), it will need to be happy to be in a family environment. Our setter (like a Labrador) is happy to try and eat anything! During mealtimes, our dog and any visiting dogs will be put in a different room. He is a counter surfer and so surfaces and tables are clear of food aside from mealtimes, so they do not get anything that might upset their tummies. I'm very vigilant on keeping any non dog friendly foods well away (raisins, chocolate etc.)
“As our dog has some behavioural issues, so we were worried no one would be willing to look after him for 5 days, but Dorota was more than willing to try. We got constant updates including photos and videos which helped since we missed him. She was very sweet and Teddy seemed to love her!”
“Ace spent 8 nights with Natalie. She sent through regular photos and updates. We could see how well Ace was doing and how happy he was. It meant we could enjoy our holiday without worrying about the dog!”
“Phenomenal service. Harry became instant friends with Bonny’s family and has never had a better holiday. From twice daily walks at the Lakes to travels in the car. To all afternoon cuddles and naps in the cosy. As you can see from his picture, he was well worn out. Already booking our next trip. Cannot recommend highly enough”

“My girls had the best time with Sophie! Such a lovely lady, with a lovely little doggy herself. Can’t wait for my girls to go back for another play date. Highly HIGHLY recommend Sophie!”
“Kinga was the best host for our dog missy. She kept us updated and informed. You could tell that she really did love looming after her. We will be booking again with her”
