About Marcia

Only small to medium FRIENDLY pups🙏🐾💞 - max. 4 bookings at time. 

Up to date vaccinations' proof and meet&greet are essential before to commit ☺️🙏

In our home🏡❤️🐾🐶💕 your dog will be safe, happy and well looked after so you can rest assured to enjoy your holidays, day out, long shift or whichever reason of absence.

We are currently registered under Lily's Fur Guests Doggy Daycare and Boarding Ltd - insured and fully compliant to The Animal Welfare Law - UK. 

Our home is up to date with the Derby City Council animal license fees.
Fire assessed and holds a fire evacuation plan in place. 
Also has an infection control & desifection procedures following the current UK legislation. 

I am a fully qualified petsitter holding the following up to date training:
- Level 2 (VTQ) Certificate in Dog Care
- Level 3 (VTQ) Pet 1st Aid Certificate for Pet Professionals 
- Level 4 (OTHM) Diploma in Health & Social Care Management so I'm able to also apply insulin pen if required. 

I've been taking care of dogs  all my lifetime. I am kind, infinitely pacient😂  and caring. Will go out of my way to give your 4paws baby all the reassurance required for a happy stay with us. I am really good with nervious pups 😅💕🐶🐾💞
My husband and my son (a young adult) also love dogs and both are happy to help me. One of them, usually my son, comes with me to the park for the daily evening walk, so I have this extra pair of hands to keep yours and my fur baby safe whilst outdoors.

I have an admin job working from home job at steady pace with a few breaks along the day. 
We have a good size, fully fenced, secured backyard to let our Lily and your dog go in the garden every 2hs for a bit of fresh air, toileting and exercise. 

Our Cockapoo Lily🐶 loves to play with her fur guests chasing around the garden and has got so much energy to run a several laps on every break. 

In the evenings we all go for a nice walk to one of our two local parks about 5-10min away. 

I'm very aware of your feelings as a pet  parent and aware that separation anxiety can happen to both, to comfort I will send you a few pics with a short video from your pup EVERYDAY, during the entire time he/she's under my care. However, everyone needs are different so can also adapt it to your choice if you prefer the updates just every now and again or even twice a day. Talking it through during the meet & greet, we'll find the best way to ensure you'll enjoy your time away in a complete peace of mind. 

We've got a box full of chewing toys to keep ours and your pup busy 😁🦴🦴🦴🥎⚾🥏🧩🐻🪅🪇🎉

* If sleeping over, please remember to bring:
- Your dog's own bed (important to help him/her to get settled for the night ). 
Please bring the crate used in your home if that's where your pet currently sleeps. 
Our pup Lily🐶 sleeps in her big crate, she doesn't need it daytimes anymore, just goes in and out whenever she wants to but if your pet does have a crate routine during the day, I'm happy to follow your choices and schedules, if not, no worries, I'll keep the crate's door open all day so it will be just a comfy zone. 

- Enough food for the entire booking

- Favorite toy, bone or both

- Doggy raincoat (if you don't have one at moment, no worries, I have plenty of them at home in all sizes) so they still can go out for toilet and exercise in all weather even when is raining, I'll throw the ball to them under my umbrella ☔😁 so they'll run a few laps around the garden chasing it 🥎👀🐕🐕

- Vet's name/address and an emergency contact please, as a precaution. I'm sure everything will be fine but always better be safe than sorry 😊🙏

We have a baby tall safety gate to our upstairs so no 🐶🐶🐱🐱 allowed in beds, neither fussing in the laundry basket😂 
However, downstairs there is plenty of space for them to play freely, 2 well sized joined living rooms, kitchen, conservatory and a very spacious and fully fenced backyard garden ☺️
Also our home has 2 barriers from/to access the street (conservatory + front door & garden gate + a 2nd garden gate). 

Our 2 kitties🐱🐱 are 100% dog friendly, they just don't bother about dogs anymore😂 King and Queen of their 2 high cat trees, only getting down when I'm around or when they already got used to the fur guest🐶 but would get stressed with other felines in our house so I don't board cats, sorry🙏


Many thanks for considering our home a good place to kindly take care of your furry baby 🙏🐾🐶💞 

If you drop me a booking request I'll check it on my availability in order to arrange a visit as per meet and greet for you with your pet 🐾🐶💕xx
