“Very happy to have found Rebecca, after being let down by a local kennel. She immediately put us at ease in looking after our boy and seemed to take care of him like he was her own. She kept us updated, sent us pics and made us feel very comfortable in leaving him. I would definitely use Rebecca again and would also recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur baby!”


“I’m really glad we found Lenka for our doggy Leah! We’ve so far had a couple of doggy day care days which have gone so well. Lenka is very quick to respond when booking, and Leah has been a happy, tired girl when we’ve picked her up. We get lots of pictures and Lenka keeps us updated throughout the day which is great. It’s really nice to have found someone close by who we feel really comfortable leaving our doggy with 🙂”


“Charo had a great time at Kathryn’s place. She was staying for the day and had the best playtime. The communication was excellent, received pictures throughout the day and they even gave her a shower after playing outside. Would 100% bring Charo again and can fully recommend! 😍”


“Thanks for looking after Odin whilst we were away for a few hours at a wedding. Odin seemed really happy to be there and tired from his walk when he got back. See you in December!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs, from the age of 5. From our own family dogs, to the working dogs on the rural estate I spent all my summers. I work from home, and live next to a country park which is perfect for long walks. I work from home and have a flexible diary Monday to Friday. For weekends, we have no commitments that are not dog friendly, and would prefer to be up the hills with a dog rather than anywhere else really! Happy to be outside, no matter the weather. I will follow your lead, you tell me your dog's routine and I will happily follow it. I have a fenced in real grass garden. Ground floor of my house is hard floors, so it's not a bother to clear up mucky paw prints or any accidents. I care for dogs as if they were my own, and will happily have them up on the couch for cuddles at the end of the day.

“The stay with Tomasz for Daisy was a real success. She usually needs time to get used to a new person but I really could tell she was thrilled to stay at Tomasz, she was joyful, she played with her toys and ate her food which rarely happen on a stay with someone new. I could also tell by the pictures that she was spoiled and well cared for. I have already re booked Tomasz for another stay!”

“Krystina is amazing. She looked after my pup for two hours while I was on a night out. I left in a hurry and so the house was a mess! Krystina didn’t mind. She took photos and took Jax out and played with him which made my night so much more relaxed. It was a Friday night too. She really is a god send.”


“Alfie spent a day with Lynne and her own dog and settled in really quickly. Lynne updated us throughout the day and sent a picture of him with his new pals. We will definitely be using Lynne again. She clearly has a real love of dogs and nothing was an issue for her as Alfie has a few issues with foods.”

Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily life. As someone who has always had dogs, I’ve built my routine around caring for animals — from early morning walks to evening cuddle time. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means I can provide consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s a morning walk, meal times, play sessions in the garden, or quiet rest indoors, I make sure each dog in my care feels safe, loved, and part of the family. My children, who were raised with dogs, also enjoy having them around and help create a friendly, stimulating environment for our furry guests. Every day is planned with your pet’s needs in mind, and weekends often include longer walks or outings to dog-friendly spots. Caring for dogs isn’t a task — it’s something we genuinely enjoy and feel privileged to do. We’re a dog-loving household with a secure fenced garden and plenty of space to play and rest.
