I am an experienced and dedicated dog owner with experience of walking, caring for and fostering many breeds of dog. 

I currently own an active crossbreed dog, Dobby who is 7 years old and a rescue from Cyprus. He required lots of training and patience. I feel that I am knowledgable in recognising a dog’s needs, both with exercise and attention/training. Dobby is my 4th dog - I have previously had a Rhodesian ridgeback and English bulldogs - so I have experience in a variety of sizes and need (and stubbornness!) 

I have fostered rescue dogs in the past, teaching them skills such as toilet training, polite eating habits and socialisation whilst in the care of our family. I have three children aged between 10-14 who are all very familiar with being around dogs. Please note that your dog will be looked after as part of our family whilst with us, so my children may be with me whilst we walk your dog. We walk our own dog 3 x a day. Yoor dog would sleep in a room on its own with its own bed/crate - either our sun room or our kitchen. I have an enclosed hard floor courtyard garden, your dog would be welcome to sit outside in the warmer months or go outside and use the area for comfort breaks - but I do not use this for exercising dogs. We have two cats - they would not be in the same room as your dog. 

I would offer you the same level of care you have for your own dog and take your dog on walks as you do. We live in the centre of town, but are minutes from long countryside and river walks. I have a job, but I am lucky enough to work from home - your dog would not be left home alone for more than 30 minutes at a time.

If you would like doggy daycare I can offer a drop off only service and your dog will be cared for alongside my own dog in a safe and loving environment, providing exercise for your pet, a quiet relaxed environment, but also plenty of games and attention. I offer dog walking for CA1/CA2/CA3 areas.

I am fully insured. I ask that owners provide their own leads, food and treats and that their dogs are up to date with vaccinations. Due to me having children, cats and a dog, I cannot take reactive, aggressive or nervous dogs.

I welcome enquiries about looking after other small animals and also happy to answer any further questions.
