“Lyndsey and her family were absolutely amazing when she looked after our Lola. She followed everything we asked, and also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the 2 weeks she had her. I would have no reservations in recommending Lyndsey to look after anyone's fur baby, ours will be visiting again next year without doubt. Thank you Lyndsey.”
“Becky and Ryan were great with Winston, he came home knackered after lots of long walks and fun with them and their dog Quinn. Really appreciate them sleeping in the spare bed with him as he wouldn’t settle, would recommend x”
About: 🏡 BOARDING INFORMATION Please note that we currently accept boarding stays of 2 nights or more. This allows your dog time to settle in, relax and enjoy their home-from-home stay with us. A meet & greet is required before we can accept any new dog for boarding. This gives us the opportunity to get to know your dog, discuss their routine and needs, and make sure they’re comfortable and happy in our home before their stay. Your dog’s safety, happiness and comfort are our priority, and we want every stay to feel like a home from home. ❤️ 🐾 EXPERIENCE A lifetime of love and experience with dogs I had my two much-loved dogs, Zeus and Zena, from just 8 weeks old until they sadly passed away at 14½ years old, so I have genuine hands-on experience of caring for dogs throughout every stage of their lives — from energetic puppies through adulthood and into their senior years. They had completely different personalities. Zeus was reactive, which taught me a great deal about patience, recognising triggers, giving a dog space and carefully managing walks and interactions. Zena was the complete opposite — extremely friendly and loved children! With her, the challenge was managing her excitement and helping her stay calm when she wanted to greet everyone she met. As they became older, I adapted to their changing needs. Zeus developed hip dysplasia and eventually used a doggy wheelchair, while Zena used a pushchair when she could no longer manage longer walks. I made sure they could still enjoy getting outdoors and being part of everyday life while keeping them safe and comfortable. After 14½ years of having dogs by my side, the house is very quiet without them. I'm not ready to have another dog of my own, but I have plenty of love, time and space to give, and I'd love to use that to help other owners by providing a safe, caring home-from-home for their dogs. I understand that every dog is an individual. Whether they're young and energetic, older and slower, nervous, reactive or simply love lots of attention, I'll take the time to understand their routine and what makes them feel happy and secure. Your dog won't just be staying with me — they'll be welcomed into my home and cared for as if they were my own. ❤️🐾 I’m happy to board up to two dogs at a time, providing they are from the same household. This means your dogs can stay together in a comfortable home environment, and I can give them plenty of individual care and attention. I don’t board dogs from different households at the same time. I currently work full-time, but pet care will be something my partner and I are both involved in. I have two days off during the week and finish early on another day, while my partner is home during the day. Between us, we can provide plenty of company, attention, walks and care throughout the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone. We have a secure, fenced garden with plenty of space for dogs to enjoy. Some landscaping work is underway but is currently paused until next year, and the garden remains safe and secure for dogs. We will always supervise dogs appropriately and follow their usual routines, including feeding, walks, medication and any individual care needs. Having cared for our own dogs from puppies into old age, we understand how important it is for owners to know their dog is safe, comfortable and well cared for.
“Really felt reassured that Sheila was looking after our dog the best she could , no need to have worried about leaving him . Frankie was completely at home. Thank you x”
“Emma looked after my 2 energetic spaniels for 2 weeks. She sent us regular updates and pictures of the dogs showing us the fantastic walks they were having. Emma is a very pleasant and professional person to deal with and has a sound knowledge of dogs and their behaviour. The dogs returned home happy and relaxed.....I would definitely use Emma again.”
“Aimee is amazing, took my 2 little boys on with such short notice, they were so happy and she was so flexible, always know they are in safe hands. Received daily updates and seriously someone you can trust!”
“Absolute 5 star gold standard experience, from start to finish Nicola was a joy to deal with, we booked quite late as our regular boarder let us down suddenly, after initial contact we arranged a pre visit and was put at ease straight away, Nic and our boy Vader hit it off from the start and we felt very comfortable as she is obviously an experienced "dog person" and does have her own dog who is very placid and engaging. We booked Vader for eight nights , Nic is very flexible with drop off and pick up times and all went smoothly, she will feed your dog to your schedule however you want, and is attentive to all exercise and any and all requirments, whilst we were away she kept in touch with a regular stream of photos, videos and comments on how things were going, we find this really useful. When collecting Vader it was obvious how well things had gone (I think he would have quite happily stayed another week) all in all a really great experience , and i will only be booking through Rover with Nicola in the future.”
“This was my dog’s second stay with Gemma. Darcie can be quite timid but she took to Gemma and her family straight away. Gemma kept me updated and sent photos of Darcie’s adventures. I know that Darcie is being cared for as I would so I can relax and enjoy my holiday. Highly recommend Gemma and I will be booking her again.”
“Another amazing stay with Kin! She goes above and beyond to ensue your pup has the best stay! Lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Couldn’t wish for a better person to care for your pet ❤️”
“Man Choi was amazing with Biscuit! She sent lots of updates and photos to us during our holiday to put our minds at rest. Biscuit really enjoyed her time with Man Choi and Man Choi made sure Biscuit had lots of fuss and all her medication, food and drink and toilet breaks too! We would use Man Choi 100% again and are so happy with how she looked after Biscuit and treated her so well with lots of love and care. Great care and communication! Thank you!”
“Thank you so much Kelly. Daily updates on Ralph with pictures of his day. It meant so much to us being able to see him doing the things he would do at home. Such a weight off our minds during our holiday. Had a very happy little man when we picked him up and would absolutely not hesitate to have him back with you or recommend your services to anyone I know.”
About: I have had experience of dogs since age 8 when my parents had 2 golden retrievers. There has only been a period of around 10 years in my life where I have not lived with dogs. I have bred rottweilers and German shepherds. I am a house husband so apart from nipping the shops, I am at home 95% of the time. We live in a rural area and within a 5 minute walk there is access to fields, woods and walks right by the wrekin. My whole life is pet care at the moment, I love it. I can do very last minute bookings so long as there can be a quick meet to establish all dogs are going to get on. I especially like big dogs and don't mind a bit boisterous / challenging. So long as they get on with my dogs. We have a good sized enclosed garden with dog flap doors which lead to the garden. I am a house husband and am at home 95% of the time. I take my dogs out for 3 to 4 walks a day starting very early in the morning. Our dogs are very playful and freindly with other dogs. I have had many a relatives dog stay over whilst they are away so I am very used to looking after multiple dogs. I have raised a few litters of pups, the last litter 12/2025.
“Fantastic Dog Sitter really really easy to get along with communication was 10 out of 10 and got a really great vibe. Will 100% be bringing Albie back again in the future as they seem to get on great. The photo was a really nice touch. You might say quite high-quality too LOL. Great to have such an easy option. This close to New Year’s Eve would highly recommend. Thanks again from Michael and Albie.”
“Thank you so much for having Storm and Penny, they loved it with Charlie, she kept me updated with pictures, I had a mix up with dates and Charlie was so good with accommodating this, amazing communication before and during their stay, I would 100% use her again, thank you so much!”

“Eleanor was absolutly amazing with our kitty while we were away, she spent loads of time with her making sure she was well looked after and happy, and went above and beyond when she needed to go to the emergancy vet, calling the vet for updates and keeping us informed all day, it took so much stress away, I cannot rate her high enough.”
“Jessica was fantastic!! I felt very comfortable with her looking after our cat, Lottie. Lottie definitely seemed to love her and we received great updates and photos every day. Would definitely recommend Jessica and have her again, thank you so much Jessica!!”
“Absolutely thrilled to have found Eve on here! After a last minute panic needing our dogs looking after whilst we all went away, she came and met our dogs (who absolutely loved her!) within 24 hours and was fantastic during each of her visits. Photos, updates and comments each time and we are so thankful that she was able to come with such short notice. Thank you! We’ll definitely be seeing you again- I know Max and Peppa will be happy with that! 😍”
“Kerry was reliable and friendly and brilliant with my cat who she looked after really well. My cat is a nervous cat but Kerry was able to help him feel comfortable with her. It was nice to receive the lovely photos Kerry sent to show my cat was doing well and making friends with her. Thank you, Kerry!”
“Thank you for checking in on my girls while I was away. I really appreciate it. Hopefully you will be happy ro help me again in the future. Excellent service and the cats were perfect when I got back.”
“Abby has been amazing , our little girls love her ! It worked out so well , we were worried our dogs had always stayed with family before but Abby put our minds at rest with pictures and letting us know how the dogs were Thanks very much Abby 😊”
About: I’ve had a love of cats since I was a little girl and my grandparents had a Tom cat called Tompuss. He was big and gentle. My parents also helped to look after the neighbours cats as well-which encouraged my love of cats as well. Due to owning a dog now, we have decided not to have cats of our own. However, my business means that I can offer my love and attention to other owners cats instead. Popping in, giving them fuss and playing with them, along with providing food and drink for them, and refreshing litter trays.
“Kiran was polite, friendly and accommodating, she made the whole process smooth and painless and we felt very secure leaving her to check in on our little fluffballs. Would 100% recommend and will be re-booking.”
About: Long walks, hill walks, running (to be honest, it’s more jogging 😂), sitting in cafes; whatever your furry friend prefers let me know and I’ll come up with a plan! After 20 years in an office, I’ve broken free and am available during the day and some evenings. I’m in the lucky position of being pretty flexible! We have a 3 story family home, which we share with our Cavapoo, Rocket. Your dog, like ours, has free run of the house and small fenced garden. I will be solely responsible for the dogs, however my family will be around. My daughter is the animal whisperer, but my wife and son love being along for the ride.

I was pet sitting in London for around 2 years, now I'm back in my home of Shropshire, looking to continue my passion here and in the surrounding areas!

“Missy seemed to have really enjoyed her time with James. James is a great communicator and is very accommodating, taking Missy out for walks too. Will definitely use James again in the future.”
“Rebecca has been so amazing, flexible and reliable while taking care of my little Bruno. I instantly felt my pup would be safe under the care of rebecca. He has so much fun when he goes to day care. She takes him on lots of walks and gives lots of love and fuss. Thank you so much for taking amazing care of Bruno.”

“Easy drop off in the morning. Updates throughout the day of Ralph having a sleep, some play time and going for a walk. Was a very comfortable stay for Ralph so would be happy to book with Kelly again.”
About: I have adopted 8 elderly dogs since 2012 and have loved every second of making sure they have lived their final days in comfort and with love. I currently work remotely from home so very easy to have dogs here with me - it's a very calm, safe and dog friendly environment. I have a secure back yard that the dogs can play or snooze in - very secure. A lunchtime walk at the nearby park is essential. Plenty of space to explore in the house. No furniture is off-limit!

About: I was a dog mom for 13 years and my beautiful best friend Amigo had the best life any dog could ask for. I love animals deeply and I moved to the area I live just for my dog. My house is fully dog proof with a dog flap, garden and woodlands right outside the front door. He passed away 5 months ago and I can’t bear to have another dog of my own, but the house is quiet and I miss being able to look after a furry friend. Amigo was a white German shepherd so I am used to big dogs and the needs of a “working” dog breed. If you want your dog to be looked after with the amount of love you give them, then I am your gal. My best friend Jenny is also a boarder / walker, so if there is any time where I need to pop out shortly she can normally pop in and keep your fur babies some company . I work from home currently and did so, so that I could be with my dog before he passed. I can give a lot of attention to your furry friend as they will be here right with me. I also have a dog flap so there always free to go outside as much as they like. *If I am out for any reason my bestie who is a dog boarder & walker can pop by. She also lives down the road from me which is a plus. So be rest assured that your fur baby will be well looked after. I have a fenced in garden, and a two story house so there is enough space (my German Shepard was very comfortable here and didn’t have any issues). You tell me how many treats your pet can have and I’ll provide the cuddles and playtimes. * Jenny also has a fenced garden. She has a 4 bedroom 2 story new build which is stunning.

I do have my own dog now so it’s essential that your dogs are okay with other dogs- he’s a big boy but still thinks he’s a lap dog🙈

“Couldn’t recommend Eve highly enough - she just gets dogs! Our boy Comet can be a little unsure with new people but he took to her instantly and chose to sit at her feet. I think he picked up on her calm energy. Communication was great and was so lovely to see the pics and updates from his walks while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Eve again.”
“Kerry helped us out so much this week at short notice, for which we are grateful. Arlo seemed instantly comfortable around Kerry and was pleased to show the way on his walks in the area and smiled beautifully for his mid-walk pictures. We would not hesitate to call on Kerry's services again, thank you.”

“Jessica has been amazing from the very start. She is incredibly responsive and professional, and it is clear that Blade absolutely loves his walks. The photos she sends are wonderful, and it is great seeing him so happy and well cared for. I am really glad I chose Jessica. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. My dog can be a bit of a handful since he is a large breed, but Jessica handles him with ease. I would not choose anyone else now.”

Your peace of mind is my priority : 🐶 Fully qualified veterinary nurse with 25+ years experience 🐶 Services backed by full insurance 🐶 Enhanced DBS certificate holder 🐶 First aider with comprehensive first aid kit 🐶 Your pet will not be mixed with other households 🐶 Special diets and medication catered for 🐶 Nail clipping and other services available on request I have kept dogs and cats all my life.

I have a fully stocked first aid kit and can cope with many minor mishaps that occur routinely with keeping animals such as a broken nail or a graze out on a walk but I always contact you first to explain what is happening. I will provide plenty of notes, photos and videos of your pet's stay so that you know exactly how they have been and what activities they have enjoyed

About: I didn't grow up around dogs but that has never stopped me loving them! In recent years I've had the opportunity to spend more time around dogs and puppies and have been trusted to look after them, and I've never had a bad review! I love getting to know dogs' personalities, just as you would a person :) I’m an all round pet lover, so any excuse to spend time with and give love to animals I’m all for. DBS check available upon request. I have just relocated to Telford from near Liverpool, and am currently looking for a job, meaning I have lots of time to look after and spend time with your pets! I am free throughout the week, Mon-Sun, at anytime you need me. I am comfortable walking dogs on the lead, and really cater to what the owner prefers. Happy to do short walks, long walks, take treats if your dog is food motivated, it is up to you.
About: I love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've grown up with labradors and cocker spaniels, so I'm used to sociable, high-energy dogs. I've studied animal behaviour and cognition so I actively research and apply this theory when handling new dogs. I'm comfortable working with rescue dogs, and happy to take it slow with seniors who'd prefer a relaxed visit. I'm out walking my dog whatever the weather, and I have flexible working hours so I'm happy visit your dog(s) during the day and take them on some lovely long walks! My house has enough space for small or large dogs, and I have an enclosed garden they can enjoy. My spaniel, Cleo, will be around to help your dog feel comfortable. 🐶 I'm out walking whatever the weather! My job is flexible, and I tend to have time in the afternoons, so I am available to help out during the day for walks or home visits. My dog gets treated like royalty and yours will too! I'll respond to their personality and work with you to meet their specific needs while they're with me.
“Kelly is kind and sensitive not just to the dog she is walking but also to the owner. Bonnie likes to take her time to get to know know people, and Kelly is building trust, taking the time Bonnie needs, and giving her the stimulation she craves on her walks. We're happy that Kelly has agreed to weekly walks. She's enabled us to relax knowing Bonnie is in really good hands. Thank you Kelly.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my dedication to providing the best possible care for your furry family members. In addition to my experience caring for my own cats, I have also volunteered at animal shelters and have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs, birds, and small mammals. I am committed to maintaining a clean and safe environment for your pets, and I have a strong understanding of animal behavior and body language, allowing me to identify any potential issues before they become problems. Overall, my passion for animal care and my experience makes me a reliable and trustworthy choice for your pet-sitting needs. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I am currently a student, so aside from the time I am at my college, I will have plenty of time to spend with your little fur baby. I can look after them on the weekdays too but I prefer the weekends more. I will be caring for the pet at the owner's house as my flatmates don't like to have dogs around the house. Within your home, I can crate your dog if needed and we will abide by the rules and restrictions you have set for them,
“Caroline walked my dog, Mambo, every day while we were away on holiday, and I couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided. From the start, Caroline was incredibly flexible with both the location and walking times, and she kindly arranged to meet Mambo before we went away so that he could get to know her. This was a real reassurance for me, as it was our first time using her. Throughout the week, Caroline was extremely reliable and kept in regular contact, sending us updates on how Mambo was getting on. She was clearly very caring and conscientious, and went out of her way to make sure both Mambo and we were comfortable and happy. Mambo absolutely loved his walks with Caroline, and it was lovely knowing he was in such good hands while we were away. I’ve already recommended Caroline to friends and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Highly recommended!”
“Abbony is nothing short of amazing! I am so thankful to have found a perfect match for our Monty when we are working. I highly recommend her services if you need someone to love and care for your animals when you can't be there. I received the most adorable pictures of him with the horses he went to visit! 10 stars from me! ⭐”

About: I was a dog mom for 13 years and my beautiful best friend Amigo had the best life any dog could ask for. I love animals deeply and I moved to the area I live just for my dog. My house is fully dog proof with a dog flap, garden and woodlands right outside the front door. He passed away 5 months ago and I can’t bear to have another dog of my own, but the house is quiet and I miss being able to look after a furry friend. Amigo was a white German shepherd so I am used to big dogs and the needs of a “working” dog breed. If you want your dog to be looked after with the amount of love you give them, then I am your gal. My best friend Jenny is also a boarder / walker, so if there is any time where I need to pop out shortly she can normally pop in and keep your fur babies some company . I work from home currently and did so, so that I could be with my dog before he passed. I can give a lot of attention to your furry friend as they will be here right with me. I also have a dog flap so there always free to go outside as much as they like. *If I am out for any reason my bestie who is a dog boarder & walker can pop by. She also lives down the road from me which is a plus. So be rest assured that your fur baby will be well looked after. I have a fenced in garden, and a two story house so there is enough space (my German Shepard was very comfortable here and didn’t have any issues). You tell me how many treats your pet can have and I’ll provide the cuddles and playtimes. * Jenny also has a fenced garden. She has a 4 bedroom 2 story new build which is stunning.
About: When you’re away, your dog deserves to feel safe, settled and understood. That is the environment I aim to create — a calm, steady home where care is personal, structured and consistent. I offer structured, home-based care for dogs who need more than just supervision. With 12 years of hands-on experience in boarding, day care, dog walking and grooming, I understand how to create balance — enrichment without overstimulation, affection with clear boundaries. I intentionally keep numbers small so each dog receives proper supervision, individual attention and thoughtful emotional awareness. No cages. No overcrowding. No rushed handling. Just a calm, structured home where dogs can soften, settle and feel secure. I work particularly well with: • Larger breeds • Sensitive or anxious temperaments • Dogs who benefit from calm, steady handling This is not a high-traffic boarding setup. It is a secure, professionally managed home environment where dogs can relax and regulate naturally. (Licensed by Telford & Wrekin Council -BTWAWL077) Pet care is part of my daily structure, not something I fit around other commitments. Boarding dogs are rarely left alone and follow a consistent home routine. My day is organised around walks, enrichment, rest and supervision, ensuring each dog receives steady attention throughout their stay. Drop-off and collection times are arranged in advance to maintain a calm, predictable rhythm for all dogs in my care. I believe: • Dogs mirror the energy around them • Calm environments encourage calm behaviour • Overstimulation creates stress • Stability builds trust For that reason, I don’t run a loud or high-traffic setup. I maintain a steady, balanced rhythm where dogs can settle naturally and feel secure. This is home-style care — managed professionally. • Fully licensed home boarding • Pet First Aid trained • Secure, family home environment • Structured daily routine • Enrichment-based care • No forceful handling • Regular photo updates Dogs are managed thoughtfully — never rushed, never crowded.

About: Following years of dog sitting for family and being desperate for a dog of my own, I finally adopted my Labrador puppy Jessie in 2025. My life has completely changed for the better both physically and mentally. I understand how difficult it is to find dog care you can trust and the need for peace of mind when you’re away or at work. I’m responsible, caring, reliable and genuinely love dogs! I’m currently working part time, so am flexible with my commitments. I am happy to take last minute requests for dog care and love nothing more than a long walk! I have a two year old Labrador called Jessie and a large, secure garden. My local area has lots of lovely areas for walking and fields for running around.

“Lyndsey and her family were absolutely amazing when she looked after our Lola. She followed everything we asked, and also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the 2 weeks she had her. I would have no reservations in recommending Lyndsey to look after anyone's fur baby, ours will be visiting again next year without doubt. Thank you Lyndsey.”
About: 🏡 BOARDING INFORMATION Please note that we currently accept boarding stays of 2 nights or more. This allows your dog time to settle in, relax and enjoy their home-from-home stay with us. A meet & greet is required before we can accept any new dog for boarding. This gives us the opportunity to get to know your dog, discuss their routine and needs, and make sure they’re comfortable and happy in our home before their stay. Your dog’s safety, happiness and comfort are our priority, and we want every stay to feel like a home from home. ❤️ 🐾 EXPERIENCE A lifetime of love and experience with dogs I had my two much-loved dogs, Zeus and Zena, from just 8 weeks old until they sadly passed away at 14½ years old, so I have genuine hands-on experience of caring for dogs throughout every stage of their lives — from energetic puppies through adulthood and into their senior years. They had completely different personalities. Zeus was reactive, which taught me a great deal about patience, recognising triggers, giving a dog space and carefully managing walks and interactions. Zena was the complete opposite — extremely friendly and loved children! With her, the challenge was managing her excitement and helping her stay calm when she wanted to greet everyone she met. As they became older, I adapted to their changing needs. Zeus developed hip dysplasia and eventually used a doggy wheelchair, while Zena used a pushchair when she could no longer manage longer walks. I made sure they could still enjoy getting outdoors and being part of everyday life while keeping them safe and comfortable. After 14½ years of having dogs by my side, the house is very quiet without them. I'm not ready to have another dog of my own, but I have plenty of love, time and space to give, and I'd love to use that to help other owners by providing a safe, caring home-from-home for their dogs. I understand that every dog is an individual. Whether they're young and energetic, older and slower, nervous, reactive or simply love lots of attention, I'll take the time to understand their routine and what makes them feel happy and secure. Your dog won't just be staying with me — they'll be welcomed into my home and cared for as if they were my own. ❤️🐾 I’m happy to board up to two dogs at a time, providing they are from the same household. This means your dogs can stay together in a comfortable home environment, and I can give them plenty of individual care and attention. I don’t board dogs from different households at the same time. I currently work full-time, but pet care will be something my partner and I are both involved in. I have two days off during the week and finish early on another day, while my partner is home during the day. Between us, we can provide plenty of company, attention, walks and care throughout the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone. We have a secure, fenced garden with plenty of space for dogs to enjoy. Some landscaping work is underway but is currently paused until next year, and the garden remains safe and secure for dogs. We will always supervise dogs appropriately and follow their usual routines, including feeding, walks, medication and any individual care needs. Having cared for our own dogs from puppies into old age, we understand how important it is for owners to know their dog is safe, comfortable and well cared for.
“Really felt reassured that Sheila was looking after our dog the best she could , no need to have worried about leaving him . Frankie was completely at home. Thank you x”
“Emma looked after my 2 energetic spaniels for 2 weeks. She sent us regular updates and pictures of the dogs showing us the fantastic walks they were having. Emma is a very pleasant and professional person to deal with and has a sound knowledge of dogs and their behaviour. The dogs returned home happy and relaxed.....I would definitely use Emma again.”
“Aimee is amazing, took my 2 little boys on with such short notice, they were so happy and she was so flexible, always know they are in safe hands. Received daily updates and seriously someone you can trust!”
“Absolute 5 star gold standard experience, from start to finish Nicola was a joy to deal with, we booked quite late as our regular boarder let us down suddenly, after initial contact we arranged a pre visit and was put at ease straight away, Nic and our boy Vader hit it off from the start and we felt very comfortable as she is obviously an experienced "dog person" and does have her own dog who is very placid and engaging. We booked Vader for eight nights , Nic is very flexible with drop off and pick up times and all went smoothly, she will feed your dog to your schedule however you want, and is attentive to all exercise and any and all requirments, whilst we were away she kept in touch with a regular stream of photos, videos and comments on how things were going, we find this really useful. When collecting Vader it was obvious how well things had gone (I think he would have quite happily stayed another week) all in all a really great experience , and i will only be booking through Rover with Nicola in the future.”
“Another amazing stay with Kin! She goes above and beyond to ensue your pup has the best stay! Lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Couldn’t wish for a better person to care for your pet ❤️”
“Thank you so much Kelly. Daily updates on Ralph with pictures of his day. It meant so much to us being able to see him doing the things he would do at home. Such a weight off our minds during our holiday. Had a very happy little man when we picked him up and would absolutely not hesitate to have him back with you or recommend your services to anyone I know.”
About: I have had experience of dogs since age 8 when my parents had 2 golden retrievers. There has only been a period of around 10 years in my life where I have not lived with dogs. I have bred rottweilers and German shepherds. I am a house husband so apart from nipping the shops, I am at home 95% of the time. We live in a rural area and within a 5 minute walk there is access to fields, woods and walks right by the wrekin. My whole life is pet care at the moment, I love it. I can do very last minute bookings so long as there can be a quick meet to establish all dogs are going to get on. I especially like big dogs and don't mind a bit boisterous / challenging. So long as they get on with my dogs. We have a good sized enclosed garden with dog flap doors which lead to the garden. I am a house husband and am at home 95% of the time. I take my dogs out for 3 to 4 walks a day starting very early in the morning. Our dogs are very playful and freindly with other dogs. I have had many a relatives dog stay over whilst they are away so I am very used to looking after multiple dogs. I have raised a few litters of pups, the last litter 12/2025.
“Fantastic Dog Sitter really really easy to get along with communication was 10 out of 10 and got a really great vibe. Will 100% be bringing Albie back again in the future as they seem to get on great. The photo was a really nice touch. You might say quite high-quality too LOL. Great to have such an easy option. This close to New Year’s Eve would highly recommend. Thanks again from Michael and Albie.”
