About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. A few years ago, I spent a couple of years dog sitting, looking after dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which helped me build confidence and understanding in their individual needs. Alongside this, I’ve had family dogs for over 12 years, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my everyday life. From feeding routines and walks to playtime, companionship, and understanding their behaviour, I’m experienced in providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment for every dog in my care. At Lisa’s Dog Care, I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Lisa’s Dog Care is my full-time commitment, allowing me to provide dedicated, hands-on care throughout the entire day. My routine is fully centred around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive constant attention, supervision, and companionship. Each day begins with morning routines including feeding, walks, and playtime, setting a calm and happy tone. Throughout the day, I am always present, providing one-to-one attention, regular exercise, and plenty of interaction, adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. Afternoons and evenings continue with walks, feeding, and relaxation time, making sure every dog feels comfortable and settled. For overnight stays, I am on hand at all times to ensure dogs feel safe, secure, and truly at home. As this is my full-time role, dogs are never left unattended, and their wellbeing, happiness, and safety are always my top priority. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities at Lisa’s Dog Care. I provide a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air safely at all times. Inside, dogs are cared for in a calm, home-from-home setting where they can relax and feel comfortable. I carefully manage introductions and interactions to ensure all dogs get along happily. I also have my friendly Chow Chow, BooBooBear, who loves the company of other dogs and helps create a welcoming, social environment for your fur baby. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or prefers a quieter companion, I make sure every dog feels safe, settled, and cared for like part of the family.

About: *** Day Care spaces available on Wednesday and Friday from 1st September - please contact me for further information £25 per day (up to 12 hours), either regular slots or just one off days *** I offer a home from home for your dogs stay. If your dog stays with me, I will follow your routines and feeding plans and give them a lovely holiday in a happy, safe and loving environment. They will have regular exercise and playtime. I always like to arrange a ‘meet and greet’ with your dog so that we can get to know each other and so that your dog can become familiar with my home. I have 2 fur babies of my own, a small and medium sized dogs who are friendly and love to have doggy friends come to stay. I am a dog lover, who has had dogs both as a child and as an adult, so has lots of experience. I look after small to medium sized dogs and I accept dogs of any age, young or senior and am based in Hornchurch, Essex. I am insured, DBS Checked and hold a Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Diploma I work from home, part time, doing Accounts so looking after the dogs just fits in with my day. I would not be leaving the dogs for any length of time. I have a fenced in garden which allows the dogs the space and freedom to play. I live close to the park and fields for walking the dogs (if owner allows).

“We honestly couldn’t be happier with the care Beau received. She was absolutely fantastic with her and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such safe, loving hands. Beau was clearly happy and well looked after. We’ll definitely be using her every week now – highly recommend! x”

“I genuinely can’t thank Chanise and Jake enough for how amazing they were with Bella. ❤️ My booking was incredibly last minute, but they were so kind and accommodating and made arrangements to be available for her. Bella has never been away from me unless she’s been with family, so I was honestly so, so nervous leaving her. I think anyone who has a dog will understand just how difficult it can be to leave your fur baby with someone new, especially for the first time. 🥹 From the moment I spoke with Chanise for the first time to picking up Bella, the communication was absolutely amazing. The regular updates, pictures and messages throughout the day meant more to me than they probably realise. Seeing Bella looking happy, comfortable and settled instantly put my mind at ease. Being sent pictures of her was definitely the highlight of my day because, if I’m honest, I’d been worrying about her constantly! ❤️ Bella made herself right at home almost immediately, and I truly believe that’s because of how gentle, loving and welcoming Chanise and Jake were with her. They made her feel so comfortable and treated her as though she was one of their own. They were also so flexible and happy to make their home feel like Bella’s home too, keeping things as familiar as possible for her — even letting her enjoy her favourite spot on the sofa! 🐶🥰 This was our first time with them, but I can say with complete confidence that it definitely won’t be our last. I left Bella with them feeling nervous, but I picked her up feeling so grateful and reassured knowing she had been so well cared for. Bella is home now, curled up fast asleep in my lap, and I think that says absolutely everything about the day she’s had. 🥹❤️ A tired and happy dog is the best review of all! Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of my girl and for giving me the reassurance I needed. It’s such a relief to find people you can genuinely trust with someone who means so much to you. 100% recommend Chanise and Jake to anyone looking for loving, reliable and genuinely caring doggy care. Bella has definitely found her second home! ❤️🐾”


“Luna spent the day with Diana and she had a fantastic stay. I picked Luna up happy she was well exercised and I was kept up to date with lots of pictures throughout the day and she made another furry friend. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for dog sitting.”

“Kim has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Lulu. This was the 4th time she’s cared for her, and as always, she went above and beyond! Kim kept me updated throughout the day with adorable photos and videos, which always gives me such peace of mind. She even did some crafting with Lulu – how thoughtful and creative is that? It’s clear that she genuinely loves and cares for Lulu like her own. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Thank you, Kim, for being so wonderful! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry friends. 🐾”

“Milos second time with Nicole & he had a really good time. Milo was well looked after and has seemed to have warmed up to Nicole and her family. Nicole kept to his routine and let me know how he was doing during the day.”

Angela is a very caring dog sitter. She provided lots of photos and videos throughout Aki’s stay, so I always knew what Aki was doing, which gave me great peace of mind. Angela always asked for permission before giving Aki any treats, and Aki felt at home almost immediately. Thank you, Angela! ❤️ I would definitely recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter for their dog.

Nicole is an absolute gem — from the moment I dropped Lola off, I knew she’d be in the best hands. Lola loved every second of her stay, and Nicole’s whole family made her feel right at home, like one of their own! 🐶💛 You can tell they’re all genuine dog lovers — so warm, welcoming, and attentive. Lola came back happy, tired out from all the fun, and clearly had the best time. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for her. 10/10, will absolutely book again! Thank you, Nicole & family! 🐾

Our 18 month old Bernese, Fred, absolutely loves Tori! She looks after him regularly, and he’s always so excited when she picks him up. She always does her best to be flexible when we need, and goes above and beyond when looking after our guy. She’s very patient with him, and helps us reinforce his manners with things like jumping up which we so appreciate. :) thanks for everything Tori!

I would highly highly recommend sayo he is absolutely amazing the kindest soul and my Bella and Louis have thoroughly enjoyed their day they have come home super happy chilled and now in bed I felt so comfortable leaving them for day care today and was updated throughout the day will definitely be checking in again thank you so much for taking care of my babies as if they were your own 🫶🏼🙏
Maria welcomed our dog into her lovely home (so last minute!) and he was instantly at home! Maria sent us regular updates and our dog was so happy when we went to pick him up after having such a lovely day in the garden! Would highly recommend and book with her again :)

Daisy is our 5 month old, Cavalier King Charles spaniel puppy who stayed with Nicola for the day. Nicola has an enclosed garden and outdoor area and double the doors to the entrance, so I was not concerned about Daisy being an escape artist. Daisy was brilliantly cared for and taken to the park as well. Daisy was obviously happy in the company of Nicola’s 2 year old Cockerpoo and a fellow visitor who was a Westie. Nicola responded to my messages quickly and sent picture updates. I am very happy that I found someone responsible, dedicated experienced and caring to take care of Daisy and will most definitely trust Nicola with Daisy’s care again in the future.
