As a family we are very experienced across many breeds. Our children are encouraged to be involved as they have an enthusiasm for dogs and will provide extra love and stimulation. 

We live in a great setting for easy access to great dog walks - just a couple of minutes' walk from National Trust woodlands plus other networks of footpaths across the north Hampshire countryside or just around our friendly village (see photos).

We are used to all sizes of dogs (not the extremely large) and are excited to look after new breeds that we may not have come across, as well as our favourites! There is generally always someone around at home thanks to home-based working and our son being home-schooled so a four-legged friends need not be left alone for any length of time.

We have a medium sized garden which is fully secure - see photos. The only other pet our visitors would need to share the garden with is a tortoise (only awake during summer months)!
