About: We have over 30 years of experience in having and loving dogs. We have an older dog of our own who is very friendly and loves company on his walks. I am semi retired and have plenty of time to walk and exercise your dog. Our home backs on to a lovely lake and open spaces. Our older dog Ozzie is very laid back and usually curls himself around me on our sofa. Your dog will be treated had part of our family and given a lot of love and attention. If they want to snuggle on the sofa that is absolutely fine with me. My husband will also give your dog an early morning walk if they are partial to that. We have a garden which is fenced off and we also have a dog flap so if I have popped out your dog will not have to wait to be let out for his or her toilet breaks. Our dog is very friendly with other dogs and we will make them feel safe and comfortable in our home from home.

“Georgia looked after our two family dogs over the weekend and was so helpful, friendly, flexible and responsive! She sent us photos of our dogs having a lovely time whilst she was with them so I know they were well looked after. Would definitely recommend and wouldn't hesitate to ask her to mind them again in the future!”

About: I have had dogs now for almost 10 years and have trained and walked multiple dogs of friends and family. I am certified dog trainer and know all basic training techniques. I have a small home but plenty of walking trails and fields. Me and my partner work opposite shifts so we would be able to take care of your pets through the whole day. Overnight or weekends are always welcome. I have a fenced yard with plenty of comfy spots. We have a 7am breakfast time and 7pm dinner time but can be flexible to the needs of your dog.
About: I offer a safe, reliable pet transport and care service using my own secure car. Because I work from home most of the time, I am perfect for busy owners who need help getting their pets to late vet appointments, grooming sessions, or evening feeding visits. I treat every animal with total patience and care. My schedule is highly flexible during the week, which is exactly when many pet owners are busy or at work. I can easily accommodate late-day pet transport, emergency vet runs, grooming drop-offs, or evening home visits. Because my routine is consistent, you can rely on me for punctual, dependable care when you need it most. Safety is my absolute priority when transporting and caring for your pets. When using my pet taxi service, your animal will be securely fastened using specialised pet seatbelts, harnesses, or secure travel crates to ensure a smooth and safe journey. If I am visiting your home, I strictly follow your specific routines, double-check that all gates and doors are locked, and maintain a calm, stress-free environment. I will also send you quick text and photo updates after every trip or visit so you always have total peace of mind.
“This was my first booking with Charlotte ( and Rover) and it was a great start. Charlotte connected quickly and easily with Spook who responded well to her quiet calm style. He obviously had a good time. He was really relaxed when I got home. Thank you”

All of our therapy and holiday property lettings work has moved online now so we can work remotely from anywhere.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since a very young age. Had them always around me and was responsible for both family and neighbours pets. Able to keep them calm and content.

I’m home most of the time and can easily adapt my schedule to suit your pet’s routine, making me very flexible and reliable for ongoing care. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained building. There’s a large private terrace, a communal garden ideal for short walks, and a large park just outside—perfect for exercise, play, and fresh air.

I’m very reliable and dependable, passionate about animals, nature, the beautiful earth we live upon and creating a more loving and peaceful experience for all beings. I have many years experience with a variety of animals of all shapes and sizes. I enjoy long and short walks of slow and fast paces as I can adjust to suit your pets needs and requirements. I offer a bespoke service, have an innerstanding of dog behaviour anbd body language and simple dog training skills, including verbal and hand signalling.

I also offer discounts for 60 minute visits/ walks, 2 or more pets in the same household and also 5 or more days per week, however this particular app doesn't have an option to offer those, so give me a message regarding your requests and we can go from there.

I live on a rural piece of land which has plenty of space for your pets, however I always suggest your fur babies will always prefer their own home.
About: We have had animals in our past homes for 20 years me and my husband been together 22 years and also handled puppies whilst one of mine was in labour so I had a lot of experience with dogs of all different breeds.Before Dog boarding I used to look after friends and family’s dogs whilst they were away and took the leap to join officially through rover. I have a papillon now called Harvey and he likes to play has lots of fun to play with other dogs big or small , dogs seem to love coming to mine has its going from home to home without the upset or pining for there owners while they are away , they have way too much fun with toys and walks around the woods that’s backed onto me. Start the day by letting the dogs out, feeding them, and having breakfast. After that, take them for a good morning walk so they can get some exercise and explore. Once you're home, spend some time playing with them, whether it's fetch, tug, training, or games in the garden. While they rest, you can do your household jobs, relax, or enjoy a hobby. Later in the day, have lunch and enjoy some quiet time together. In the afternoon, give the dogs another play session or some enrichment, such as puzzle toys or scent games, followed by a shorter walk. In the evening, feed the dogs, have your dinner, and spend time relaxing together before taking them out for one final toilet break before bed. This keeps them active, happy, and settled throughout the day. I have quite a big garden. Patio and artificial grass which is fenced off. Very Secure Garden lots of room to play around there and squeaky toys and balls and beds to sunbathe 😜

About: I have grown up around animals and have owned a variety. I’ve had the likes of dogs, hamsters and guinea pigs just to name a few. Most recently I have owned a pug and currently live with a golden retriever. I have a lot of knowledge about flat faced breeds and know how to best care for them. Equally I have a lot of knowledge around other breeds particularly smaller ones. I have looked after friends and my families dogs when they have gone away. I have the ability to go to their houses so that their dogs stay in their own environment that’s familiar. I have also had dogs come and stay with me too. I regularly look after my friends dog when she goes to work making sure that her dog is well looked after. I have a lot of free time at the moment being in between jobs so am very flexible with my availability. I will work around what’s best for you and your pet. I will care for your pet as if it was my own. At my house dogs are allowed on the furniture and on the beds so they can have a proper cuddle. I have three beds in the house with room for their own bed if required. I have a fully enclosed garden with a 7ft fence. I also have an open field across the road and a woodlands the other side with running water. I will make sure to feed your dog as many times as needed throughout the time they are with me. There are two fresh water bowls throughout the house and one in the back garden as well so that there is always access to water. I usually keep my back door open throughout the summer time so that Olive (my friends dog) can go in and out when she pleases, as well as her swimming pool under the shade of a giant canopy. If you would like me to sit in your own home I will treat it with the upmost respect. I like to keep things clean and tidy and will leave your home as I came into it. Leave no trace.

I work full time mostly from home with the occasional in person meeting and off on weekends so am free around these times for anything needed. I am not normally gone for more than 4 hours however if it is longer my partner also sometimes works from home so with enough notice he can be there If your dog is house trained I can care for them at my home however I can also care for your loved pets in their own home and am able to collect from their home and take them for walks or drop in to feed and play with them for a few hours where needed. I am also able to stay overnight if required.
