 If you are thinking of booking, and may be a new owner whose dog(s) have never been away from home before then a meet and greet, followed by an overnight close to your intended dates is recommended. This way your dog will get to know us and should settle more quickly. 

I offer dog sitting in my large ground floor flat, providing your dog with loving care, lots of play and cuddles as well as walks in the woods right on my doorstep. I do not have my own dog but  sometimes foster rescue dogs. Previous fosters shown in the photos are Leo who was so chilled out shortly after arriving home with us, and the absolutely gorgeous but a bit worried looking Cooper, offlead in the woods. And a few from dog-sitting - Dillon, Sully, Teddy, Rosie and Jerry. And one of the little cutie, Dobbie, who we fostered -this picture was sent to us by his adopters. Gorgeous aren't they all? Over the last seven years I have gained lots of experience in looking after dogs and also in making a dog feel comfortable and secure in my home. I have provided dogsitting for previous fostered dogs when their owners have been away, and recently for a friend's two dogs, a bull terrrier and a staffy, and can provide references if required.
 Please be aware I may have to decline bookings for any unneutered male dogs, especially as there can be female puppies who could potentially be coming into season so I do need to be careful, but will of course give any potential booking proper consideration. I find that most of my bookings are for longer periods such as when people go away for a long weekend or a week or two on holiday which I do enjoy as the dog can get to know me. I now have many repeat bookings and are delighted that dog owners are happy to have me look after their pets again.
