About: With years of hands on experience caring for pets of all kinds, I know how important it is to leave your furry family members somewhere they’ll feel safe, happy, and loved. My pet boarding service is more than just a place to stay — it’s a home away from home. I provide personalised care based on each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s extra playtime, medication, special diets, or just lots of cuddles. Having worked with dogs, cats and a variety of small animals, I’m confident in handling pets with different temperaments and routines. When you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets are treated like family — because they are. 🐾 Because I work from home, pet care is naturally part of my daily life. I’m around throughout the day to give pets regular attention, outdoor breaks, playtime, and snuggles — not just at set times. This allows me to keep a close eye on their well-being, follow their usual routines, and give them the comfort of companionship rather than long stretches alone. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily adjust to each pet’s feeding times, walk schedule, or special needs. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or quiet evening cuddle time, I make sure every pet feels cared for and included in my daily routine. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, which is why I care for them right in their own home — surrounded by the sights, smells, and routines they already love. I do my best to keep things as normal as possible, from mealtimes and walks to playtime and snuggles, so they feel secure while you’re away. Since I work from home, I get to spend lots of time with your pets during the day, giving them attention, companionship, and plenty of love. I’m also happy to handle any special needs, like medication, special diets, or just extra cuddle breaks. I treat your pets like my own and your home with respect, so you can relax knowing everything (and everyone!) is well cared for until you’re back. 🐾

“Naomi was incredible with our nervous little dachshund. She took the time to calm and get to know her and clearly has a good affinity with dogs. Naomi also had really clear good communication! She was brilliant, we’d book her again instantly.”

“We needed someone to look after our dog whilst we attended a funeral in Stroud, 3 hours from home. Liz was wonderful in her communication with us beforehand. She was early to meet us on the day and took great care of Ruby. Highly recommend. Thank you Liz 😊”

“Savannah has been amazing! She clearly loves dogs which is nice and has been super flexible and understanding of my nervousness leaving Alfie with someone I don’t know. Alfie really likes her and was really happy when she arrived for his walk today 🥰”

“Annie is so lovely and professional. She went out of her way to understand my dog's needs and I think we both felt so comfortable with her from the get-go. Thanks Annie!”

About: I have looked after and owned dogs and cats for over 3 years. I know exactly what is needed to provide the best care for your pets. Whether its a spaniel that needs exercise and brain engagement or a labrador that will do anything for treats, I can adapt to your pet and their needs.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs my whole life. We got our first family dog when I was 15 and she became the best friend I needed at that time to get me out the house, play and lift me out of the teenage depression I was in at the time. Since then I have further cared for pooches for family and friends and in the past 5 years have completed house sits across the country for both dogs and cats as well as lived with a few more of them myself. Everywhere I go they keep appearing! People would describe me as gentle, sensitive and dedicated in my work. I am receptive to all of your pets needs and will take care of them wholeheartedly. When you hire me to look after your pet you can rest assured that they will be loved. I'm currently working part-time and flexibly so simply let me know your requirements and I'll get back to you ASAP. I charge a lot more for house sits due to consistent level of care and attention I provide. I ask the owner to provide clear instructions regarding any health and medical needs and anything out the usual. Unless indicated otherwise, I will always keep your dog on the lead, especially to begin with. If trust is developing well and recall is already in place then we can talk about offering more freedom on walks if that is what you would like.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life so have lots of love and experience with them. As soon as I was old enough I started walking dogs for my neighbours and since then have expanded out. I have lots of experience working with adolescent dogs (especially collies) and have handled many different sized breads including Irish wolf hounds. I’ve learnt how to handle them safely on and off lead in many different environments. I studied at Hartpury College for my A-Levels doing an animal management course. I’ve also worked at the RSPCA rescue centre for a couple of years. I love going for long walks and having the company of a four legged friend is an extra bonus! I always want to create a safe and happy environment where your dog can thrive. Flexible working hours. Mainly work week days but can work weekends if needed. I am happy to work around your schedule and help out whenever I can. I have a private field at the back of the house for your dogs to have lots of outside time, with an agility course set up if that's how your doggos like to spend there time! I’m fully insured, dbs checked and canine first aid trained.
