About: We live in a clean, modern house next door to a large country park where we walk our Sprocker Willow twice a day. When we aren’t at the local park, we use AllTrails to explore walks across the region or you might catch us at our cricket club! James works in Education and holds an Enhanced DBS check for piece of mind. We want to use Rover as an opportunity to trial life with two dogs, during their stay your pooch will very much become part of our little pack. Making sure to send Paw-rents pictures and updates on our day! James has recently completed Pet First Aid Training. James is a Teacher and Samantha works from home in finance. Whilst looking after your doggo we will keep time alone to a absolute minimum but Willow will be around for company! Owners can see our walks on AllTrails if requested! We have a fenced back garden with a soil, decking and stones. We usually leave the door open during the day for Willow and friends to come and go as they please. We are quite happy for visiting pups to sleep wherever they like but will always follow the instructions of their parents! We’d like to think that you are getting a quality service where your dog is treated as ours and will be taken on quality nature walks whilst in our care.

“Cooper really enjoyed his day at doggy daycare and although an anxious dog at times he was made to feel relaxed and settled in very well. Excellent communication and images of Cooper were sent throughout the day giving updates on his play and what mischief he was getting up. Would definitely recommend Sima.”

About: I’ve had family dogs since I was 3 years old, looking after other family members and friends’ dogs and I have my own cocker spaniel puppy, so am more than happy to look after puppies! 😊 I work full time, but mainly from home. It isn’t a very demanding job, so I get a lot of time to spend with my dog. I have a fully fenced, secure, big back garden that my puppy runs and plays in constantly, lots of dog toys and tennis balls. There are 2 fields I go to regularly just round the corner from me, which is perfect walking distance in the hot weather especially as it’s not too far. My cocker is massively friendly and thrives off playing with others, more so the same age as him. He is also amazing with kids, I have a 5 year old daughter, so any dogs for daytime will need to be okay with young children.

About: I’ve two chihuahuas and have a perfect mini dog set up at home 🩷 safe and secure indoor and outdoor space with woodland walks in the grounds of Lambton Castle I work from home and have my two chihuahuas with me so I can provide care for another small dog for day care or holidays. We’ve a secure garden and walks in the grounds of Lambton Castle. The dogs have access to a soft bed on sofa with steps to get up and a secure pen for bedtime. Patio doors open out onto a fenced and walled garden.

“My spaniel Winnie can be a little shy when she first meets new people, but she loved Charlotte from the moment she met her! She’s always so excited to visit and runs straight out of the car and up to Charlotte’s front door which is such a great sign. I trust Charlotte with Winnie and she’s very reliable too so I would highly recommend.”


“Our two cockerpoo brothers, over 11yrs old have stayed in lots of homes and locations with us but never been left until the wonderful Carole! The meet & greet went well previously so they were overjoyed to visit again! We were happy to leave them so we could meet family south for the day! However,it looked so much fun and care, we feared they would love it there more! A party versus home routine! ?♂️We loved that C sent texts, videos & pics throughout the day so we were totally reassured that our boys were happy! We will continue to have C to help us with our fur kids and recommend her highly. ?Thank you Carole xx”

“We were absolutely over the moon with how David looked after Echo for us. Echo has separation anxiety and does not get on with other dogs so finding a sitter for him has been very hard until we came across David, we were sent photos and videos throughout Echos stay which gave us peace of mind, Echo enjoyed his stay and we will definitely be using David again.”


“2nd time for Benji with Pip just for a few hours while we went to a family party. Benji dragged us into Pips house obviously happy to see him again. Picked him up, one contented little dog. I know it was only for 4 hours but honestly he is not a dog that can be left alone really suffers from separation anxiety, apparently common in Cavapoos. Nice to know when we need him looking after we can count on Uncle Pip.”

“Ana & family have looked after my Cockapoo on 3 occasions of 1 week over the last year and we have another week scheduled…. I won’t use anybody else despite Ana living 45 minutes from my home. My doggo Indie loves spending time with the family, they’re all clearly dog lovers who keep her enriched with attention & play which means she always comes back happy.

I’d highly recommend Ana as a dog sitter.”
