🐾 About Us
My partner Kevin and I began dog-sitting when we moved to Chafford Hundred in 2024 and have taken care of over 100 dogs since! I previously worked as a primary school teacher and now look after dogs full-time. We love all types of dogs and look forward to welcoming your furry friend to our home :)

⭐️ What Sets Us Apart
We are fully insured, DBS checked and qualified! We hold an Ofqual certification in Canine Care, Behaviour and Animal Welfare at Level 3. We are also Star Sitters on Rover! Your dog will receive 24/7 attention, exercise adjusted to their energy needs, supervised socialisation with other dogs and recorded daily observations of their routines. We offer a home away from home for dogs of all sizes, from puppies to seniors, and are experienced with different medical conditions and behavioural issues. Above all, we are sitters who genuinely love the animals that we care for and will do everything that we can to give them a holiday of their own!

📸 You can expect regular updates with photos and videos throughout their stay.

🐶 Our Dogs
We live with our two Pomsky girls, Nala and Willow. Nala is three and a half years old and Willow is three. We adopted them from a rescue in August 2025. Our girls are experienced doggy playmates and we'd love to welcome you in to meet them!

🗓️ Our Availability
We are available every day for doggy daycare and long-stay dog boarding (unless we are fully booked). We provide constant care and when we do go out, we usually take the doggies with us. We also offer house-sitting, dog walking and drop-in visits to owners' homes when we can and if you are not too far from us. For our returning doggies, we often have more calendar space and can help out last-minute with additional requests. Please check our calendar to see our upcoming availability and feel free to send us any requests that you might have :)

🏡 Our Home
We live in a detached 3 bedroom house with a large, bright and sunny, fully-fenced garden in a beautiful green area in Chafford Hundred. We are lucky enough to be right next to Chafford Gorges Nature Reserve where we walk the dogs in our care regularly. We love visiting our very many local parks and surrounding dog-friendly spaces, including wide-open fields only a short walk away. We have no children of our own and dogs are allowed on the furniture. We only ever crate dogs if part of their usual routine and if we are boarding dogs from different families, each will have their own room to sleep in. We are also a 5 minute walk from our local Medivet for peace of mind.

🥎 What We Provide
We have everything from bedding to air conditioning for the dogs in our care. We provide puppy pads and have a supply of treats and poo bags too. We keep spare leads and tags with our details on while your dog is staying with us for extra security. We cover all of the essentials (aside from your dog's usual food) including: a variety of toys for different sized dogs, kongs, licki mats, water bowls, a travel bottle, various grooming supplies, a cooling mat and our own doggy first aid kit. Your dog will be kept secure with a safety gate at the front door and will be supervised 24/7 by both us and our pet cameras. Between sits, we clean our house thoroughly for our next doggy guests. We have thought about as many things as possible to ensure that your dog is given top-quality care.

🦴 What We Get Up To During The Day
Every stay is different! We ask for your dog's daily routine to cater to their needs the way you do at home. We usually go for at least two 20-minute walks a day, or an hour-long walk and play in the park, along with all the fun they have in the garden with us and our other dogs. We love dog photography, and take lots of photos and videos of them in action. We sometimes take them on trips, meet up with our friends with dogs and find dog-friendly cafés too!

📆 Our Booking Process
We would first love to do a meet & greet to get to know your dog! Meet & greets take place at our house, so that we can see how your dog responds to the environment, they can meet our other dogs, and you can see where they will be staying.

📝 Following this, we have created a Google Form so that you can provide us with everything that we need to know to care for your dog. Questions include:

• Is your dog neutered/spayed? 

• Do they have any medical conditions or allergies? 

• What is their feeding, walking, medicine, toileting and sleep routine? 

• Does your dog have any known behavioural issues? 

• How does your dog respond to other dogs?

🏥 We require that the dogs in our care are vaccinated and up-to-date on their flea and worming treatments. We also ask for your contact details and an emergency contact should we ever be unable to reach you. On our Google Form, you can consent to us taking your dog to the vet should they show signs of being unwell, as well as indicate how you would like your dog to be walked and socialised with other dogs. 

🧸 For stays longer than 3 nights, we encourage booking in a trial day prior to boarding to help your dog settle in.

🐈 We also care for cats!

I have been pet-sitting professionally for two years and have over 100 5-star reviews cross my pet-sitting platforms, as well as being a Star Sitter on Rover! I am a qualified primary school teacher but currently take care of animals full-time. I am fully insured, have lived with both indoor and outdoor cats and have experience with kittens to super seniors. I recently lost my 18-year-old family cat and have loved meeting more fur babies through Pawshake. I genuinely love the animals that I take care of and treat them, and your home, as if they were my own. I offer drop-ins and housesitting during the day and when my partner is able to look after our dogs back at home. From feeding and watering to cleaning litter trays and administering medication, I will ensure all of your kitty’s needs are met. I especially love sending photos of your cat to you and most importantly, giving them lots of cuddles while you’re away! 🐾
