I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. I had my family dog for 14 wonderful years, and later my partner and I welcomed his brother’s dog into our home following a family separation. He was part of our family for 7 years before we sadly lost him 4 years ago.

Although we haven’t replaced him, we’ve continued to care for dogs by looking after family members’ pets while they’re on holiday or away for weekends. We both genuinely love spending time with dogs and have really missed our daily walks and having a furry companion around the house. After giving it a lot of thought, we’ve decided to open our home to other dogs so we can provide them with a safe, loving, and comfortable place to stay.

Our home has a large, secure back garden with easy access through side gates and from the kitchen. We also have air conditioning, which helps keep dogs cool and comfortable during warmer weather.

We’re lucky to live just a 12-minute walk (or a 2-minute drive) from a beautiful local lake and park with plenty of open space, perfect for enjoyable walks, playtime, and exercise.

Your dog’s safety is my priority. I never let dogs off the lead unless I have the owner’s permission and know they have reliable recall. To ensure every dog receives plenty of attention and care, I only accept one booking at a time unless the dogs are from the same household.

I know how reassuring it is to know your pet is happy while you’re away, so I’ll send daily photo updates and messages to give you peace of mind. My aim is for your dog to feel relaxed, loved, and to enjoy their own little holiday while staying with us.

For extra reassurance, I have completed a Canine First Aid course, giving me the knowledge to respond appropriately should an emergency ever arise.
