About Gemma

Being brought up on a farm I have always had a passion for looking after animals. So much so I have been a qualified veterinary nurse for almost 20 years. I’m a dog owner of a very loving 14yr old crossbreed who loves other animals and I am also a keen dog walker. Your pet would be treated like my own and welcomed into our family home. 

I now work part time and flexible shifts around my family with my husband also able to work from home to accommodate any pets we have in our care. 

I have a secure fenced garden and your pet will have the run of the house. 

We also have access to my families private fields within walking distance and we also have crates available depending on preference. 

If your fur baby is used to sleeping on the bed then that is absolutely fine with us.

About My Services

I provide tailored pet care including dog boarding, day care, dog walking, and drop-in visits. This includes feeding, exercise and companionship. I’m also able to administer oral or topical medication, provided clear instructions are given. 

To ensure each dog receives plenty of individual attention, I board no more than 2 dogs at a time, unless they’re from the same household and then i will board 3.

How long are your dog walks?

Walks are usually around 30 minutes to 1hr long, but I can tailor the duration depending on your dog’s needs, energy level, or any health considerations.

How many walks do you offer per day?

For dogs staying with me for boarding or day care, I offer 2 walks a day, in addition to supervised outdoor playtime if the weather allows.

How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine?

Caring for animals is an important part of my daily life. I build my schedule around their needs: feeding, walks, playtime and rest, so they feel secure, comfortable, and loved.

What is your availability like?

I’m generally available throughout the week, including weekends and most bank holidays. Advance booking is recommended, especially during peak periods.

What is your home like?

I live in a safe, clean, and pet-friendly home with enough space for dogs to relax and play. Guest pets are welcome in all areas of the house and can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment.

Who else lives in your home? Any family members, housemates, or pets?

I live with my husband and 3 daughters who are currently 10, 8 and 5yrs old as of 2026, all of whom love animals and are experienced with pet care. We have 1 dog of our own, Denzel.

Where are guest pets allowed to sleep?

Dogs can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable, whether in their own bed, in a crate, on our bed or in a quiet, cosy area of my home. I’ll always follow your usual routine as closely as possible.

Do you have a garden? If so, what is it like?

Yes, I have a fully enclosed garden with secure gate. It’s a safe, tidy space for dogs to enjoy some fresh air and outdoor play under supervision. I also have full access to private fields on my families farm which is within walking distance.
