******************************

I've been taking care of dogs all my lifetime. I am kind, infinitely patient😂 and caring. Will go out of my way to give your 4paws baby all the reassurance required for a happy stay with us. I am really good with nervous pups 😅💕🐶🐾💞

My husband and my son (a young adult) also love dogs and they are happy to help me with the daily walks, usually my son after his Uni classes so I have this extra pair of hands to keep yours and our fur baby safe whilst outdoors. 

I'm working from home on my laptop at steady pace with a few breaks along the day. 

******************************

We have a good size, fully fenced, secured backyard to let our Lily and your dog go in the garden every 2hs for a bit of fresh air, toileting and exercise. 

Our Cockapoo Lily🐶 loves fur company, you can tell she's so happy when we have fur guests (: 

In the evenings we all go for a nice walk to one of our two local parks about 5-10min away. Once there, your fur baby will enjoy to run or simply sniff around safely on one of our loose 10M long training leads. 

******************************

I'm very aware of your feelings as a pet parent and aware that separation anxiety can happen to both, to comfort I will send you a few pics with a short video from your pup during the entire stay. 

However, everyone needs are different so can also adapt it to your choice if you prefer the updates just every now and again or even twice a day. A few families prefer no pictures or updates during their fur baby's boarding as it would trigger their separation anxiety. No judgments here, I'm happy to follow the adaptations that suits best each pet/family needs.

I'm happy either way, it all can be agreed during the meet and greet. 

I will also respect your choice of not publishing pics of your pet on my profile. Anyway, I make sure no public pictures say the pets names.

Talking it through during the meet & greet, we'll find the best way to ensure you'll enjoy your time away in a complete peace of mind. 

******************************

We have a tall safety gate to our carpeted upstairs so no 🐶🐶🐱🐱 in the human beds, neither fussing in the laundry baskets. This is our only boundary. 

However, downstairs they own the house, there is plenty of space for them to play freely, snooze on the sofas, kitchen, conservatory and we also have a very spacious and fully fenced backyard garden ☺️

Our home has 2 barriers from/to access the street (porch + front door & garden gate + a 2nd garden gate). Hence our 4 stars City Council Licence.

******************************

Our 2 indoor kitties🐱🐱 are 100% dog friendly, they just don't bother about dogs and are the main reason we only accommodate small to medium friendly pups. The female kitty even snoozes on the sofas with our fur guests, but she is afraid to death of bigger pups. 

******************************

We had a couple of times taller pups staying and the poor thing sheltered herself upstairs for 2 weeks in a row so if your pet it's small or medium but a bit chunky (usually the case of French Bulldogs, Pugs or Dachshunds) NO PROBLEM, but if we're talking about a taller breed like Border Collies, Labradors, Staffy, etc, unfortunately our home won't be a good fit... Therefore it wouldn't work for a few repeat bookings from tiny little ones that are also afraid of big/taller pups. Their families book the trips around our availability, sometimes a year in advance.

******************************

Our kitties are the typical lazy fluffy Ragdolls, we let them in the garden for a morning wonder but they basically sleep around most of the time. Neutered/spayed they have no aggressivity at all. King and queen of their 2 high cat trees, they only get down when I'm around or when they already got used to the fur guest🐶 but would get stressed with other felines in our house so we don't board cats, sorry🙏 

******************************

Important: the kitties food balls are wall mounted, on top of a high cat tree, no small to medium dogs can reach it! Also the litter trays are hidden inside a wood cupboard against the wall, away from dogs reach. Only a kitty is flexible enough to get access to it.

******************************

Many thanks for considering our home a good place to kindly take care of your fur baby. Your pet will become a temporary member of our family and receive same attention and cuddles ours get! 😍🐶🐾💞

If you drop me a booking request I'll check it on my availability in order to arrange a visit as per meet and greet 🐾🐶💕xx
