About Sophie

Me and my husband Vins are providing various pet care services such as doggy boarding and day care, small animals boarding and dog walking.

Why us?💁🏻‍♀️:

• We are fully licensed to provide dog day care and boarding services.

• We are fully insured for providing pet care services.

• We are L2 and L3 OFQUAL certified in Canine Behaviour and Welfare.

• We are trained in Canine First Aid.

• We absolutely LOVE animals no matter how big or small🐭🐯

Our house🏠 : Our doggy guests have their own dedicated floor in the house and the secure fenced backyard for play time and potty breaks.

Where your pet will sleep😴 : Depending on your dog's character we will find a spot in the house that would be the most suitable for them, whether it's the shared living space with other dogs, a crate (if the dog is crate-trained), a private quiet corner away from everyone or our own bedroom (if they need some extra presence) we would take into account your preferences and theirs and make them feel just like home.

Dog walking🐶: Our walkies can be scheduled between 9am and 11am and include pick up and drop off and a trip to one of the exciting locations featuring a forest walk, open field, enclosure run or a natural pool. We have 1 to 4 carer to dog ratio, and walk up to 6 dogs per group (with 2 carers). Solo walks can be arranged separately if your dog is more introverted and enjoys their own space.

We offer weekday and weekend walks and regular weekly bundles at a discounted rate.

Doggy daycare🐶: Our daycare rates include pick up and drop off. We offer weekday and weekend daycare and regular weekly bundles at a discounted rate.

Pick up times are between 8am and 9:30am

Drop off times are between 4:30pm and 6pm

Your pet’s schedule(daycare & boarding)⏰: We have a fun and fulfilling schedule in place for each day of the week to ensure maximum enrichment. It consists of 2 walks per day (long one of 1 hour and shorter one of 30 minutes), regular potty breaks, various games and toys throughout the day, supervised doggy play time, and cuddles on the sofa (obviously!).

We will follow their already established feeding schedules + Any special care requests are welcome.

We host a very limited number of dogs per time to maintain calm and friendly atmosphere and send daily photo updates so you can be assured that your dog is having the best time possible😊

Our experience🤓: We have been running our small family pet care business for over 3 years now and have experience caring for most types of domestic and exotic pets. We are also full-time dog walkers and carers and are:

• Fully insured, • Canine first Aid trained,• Hold Levels 2&3 Awards in Canine Behaviour and Welfare

Emergencies🚨: We are registered with Medivet Hendon, that is a 24-hours vet practice just 10 minutes away. We also have two emergency vehicles.

Extras:

• We can provide pick up / drop off service on request (the rate depends the distance)

• We can provide a crate if your dog is crate-trained and would prefer to sleep in it.

• We always return your dog in the same clean condition as it was brought to us. On a rainy muddy day we would wash your dog's paws or coat if required and towel dry them before dropping them back home.

• We provide complementary home time bath for all boardings that are with us for 3 nights or longer.

• We can provide regular dog bathing on request for £10 fee.

PLEASE NOTE:

• We host pets on a regular basis, and can't host dogs that are not well socialised or won't get on well with other dogs in our care.

• We do not host dogs and rabbits/other free roaming animals at the same space/room and they do not cross paths for everyone's safety.

• We do not accept intact males or females in heat. If you would like to book a walking service for an intact male, we would only be able to offer solo walks.

Please drop me a message to discuss your requirements and I would be happy to help🙂

Steven, 2023-09-10

We used Sophie for the first time to look after our darling dog Maisy while we had a family celebration over a couple of days. Sophie was amazing, very communicative and she has a great setup for the dogs boarding with her. She was very conscientious and sent us videos of Maisy having a great time so we felt reassured the whole time. It’s a very professional and kind-hearted setup, Sophie clearly loves dogs and looks after them like they are her own. Very much recommend!

Sophie and Vincenzo were absolutely amazing! They took great care of Ethel and even gave us a super cute Christmassy picture of her! Will definitely come back!
