🐾 About Us
My partner Kevin and I began pet-sitting when we moved to Chafford Hundred in 2024 and have taken care of over 100 dogs since! I previously worked as a primary school teacher and now look after animals full-time. We provide boarding and daycare for dogs in our home and I offer drop-ins, walks and daytime housesitting for dogs and cats in your home :) 

⭐️ What Sets Us Apart
We are fully insured, DBS checked and qualified! We hold an Ofqual certification in Canine Care, Behaviour and Animal Welfare at Level 3. We are also Star Sitters on Rover! We provide constant care, are experienced with dogs of all sizes from puppies to seniors, and are equipped to handle a variety of medical and behavioural issues. Above all, we are sitters who genuinely love the animals that we care for and will do everything that we can to make them feel at home. You can always expect regular updates with photos and videos of what they're getting up to!

🏡 Boarding & Daycare For Dogs
We offer a home away from home and provide 24/7 attention to your furry friend. When we do go out, we usually take the doggies with us, and for overnight stays they are either with us or in their own room monitored via our pet cams. We walk each dog for a minimum of 40 minutes to an hour every day, on a different route each time, and cover all of their feeding, playing and cuddling needs! We record daily observations of your dog and supervise socialisation with other like-minded dogs. Daycare is £35 for up to 10 hours of care and is £5 more for puppies or during holiday seasons. Boarding is £5 more than daycare per 26 hours of care. We offer a £15 discount on a second dog from the same family. We are flexible if you need to book early drop-off or late evening pickup times and can provide our own secure transportation for boarding at an additional cost. 

🔑 Drop-Ins, Walks & Housesitting For Dogs And Cats

I provide in-home services for animals that prefer their own space while Kevin cares for our dogs at home. I am available everyday except Thursdays between 10am and 4pm and Fridays between 10am and 1pm (or unless I am fully booked!). My housesitting service is daytime-only. During this time, I will feed, water, give medicines, walk (if applicable!) and play with your pets the way they prefer, or just provide companionship and cuddles while you're away. I always send updates when I am on my way to your pet and triple-check that your house is secure when leaving!

🗓️ Our Availability For Boarding & Daycare

We are available every day for doggy daycare and long-stay dog boarding (unless we are fully booked!). We are usually up between 7am and 9pm but cater to early drop-offs and late pickups at the time of booking. For our returning doggies, we often have more calendar space and can help out last-minute with additional requests. Please check our calendar to see our upcoming availability and feel free to send us any requests that you might have :)

📆 My Drop-In & Housesitting Availability

I am available for drop-ins and daytime housesitting for cats and dogs around our daycare and boarding schedule. I cycle to drop-ins up to 25 minutes away and travel further for housesitting. I keep my calendar updated for these services, so please see my upcoming availability and feel free to get in touch!

🏡 Our Home

We live in a detached 3 bedroom house with a large, bright and sunny fully-fenced garden in a beautiful green area in Chafford Hundred. We are lucky enough to be right next to Chafford Gorges Nature Reserve where we walk the dogs in our care regularly. We love visiting our very many local parks and surrounding dog-friendly spaces, including wide-open fields and forests only a short walk away. We have no children. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, we only ever crate dogs if part of their usual routine, and if we are boarding dogs from different families, each will have their own room to sleep in. Dogs are always fed separately and supervised when interacting with other dogs for utmost safety. Between sits, we clean our house thoroughly for our next doggy guests. We are also a 5 minute walk from our local Medivet for peace of mind!

🥎 What We Provide
We have ensured that every room in our house is dog-friendly and set up for playtime and comfort. We have everything from different sized dog beds to air conditioning for the dogs in our care. We provide all of the essentials (aside from your dog's usual food) including: toys for different play styles, treats & puzzles, bowls, travel bottles, towels, poo bags & puppy pads. We keep spare leads, "I'm staying with my sitter" ID tags with our details on and wearable nightlights while your dog is staying with us for extra security. We have grooming supplies from deodorising shampoos and wipes to brushes for different fur types. We also keep a doggy first aid kit for all kinds of ear, eye, skin, paw and digestion emergencies, along with a wearable cone if something's bothering your pup. Your dog will be kept secure with a safety gate at the front door and will be supervised by us and our pet cameras. We have thought about as many things as possible to ensure that your dog is given top-quality care.

🐶 Our Dogs & Our Intake Policy

We live with our two Pomsky girls, Nala and Willow, who we adopted from a rescue in August 2025. Our girls are experienced doggy playmates and being 3 and 4 years old, don't bother other dogs. They enjoy cuddling on the sofa with their friends and playing in the garden if invited! We house up to 3 guest dogs at a time (unless two are from the same family). For the safety of all of our dogs, we are unable to accept dogs who display aggression or are uncomfortable with us handling them. We generally accept neutered males only (unless they are puppies or returning doggies!) but we accept unspayed females out of season.

🦴 What We Get Up To During The Day

Every stay is different! We ask for your dog's daily routine to cater to their needs the way you do at home. We usually start our day early with a stop in the garden, a breakfast break and a walk in a local park. We do different activities during the day, from playing with toys, to baking, pumping up the paddling pool in summer or letting the dogs choose snacks and toys at the pet shop. For higher energy dogs, we go on longer or off-lead walks, but we usually do about 40 minutes to an hour of walking a day per dog. For our lovely seniors and dogs with medical issues or weather limitations, we go for short walks around our block. We love photography, and take lots of photos and videos of the dogs in action. We sometimes take them on trips, meet up with our friends with dogs and find dog-friendly cafés too!

📆 Our Booking Process

After you've sent us a booking request, we set up a meet & greet to get to know your fur baby! Meet & greets for daycare and boarding take place at our house, so that we can see how your dog responds to the environment and our other dogs, and you can see where they will be staying.

After the meet & greet, we send you our Google Form to provide us with everything that we need to know to care for your dog. Questions include: 

• Is your dog neutered/spayed? 

• Do they have any medical conditions or allergies? 

• What is their feeding, walking, medicine, toileting and sleep routine? 

• Does your dog have any known behavioural issues? 

• How does your dog respond to other dogs?

On our Google Form, we also request your contact details (should we be unable to reach you on Pawshake) an emergency contact, as well as your consent to take your dog to the vet should they show signs of being unwell. You can also opt in or out of off-lead walking (which we mainly offer to our boarders and dogs with excellent recall).

🏥 We require that the dogs in our care are vaccinated and up-to-date on their flea and worming treatments. 

🧸 For stays longer than 3 nights, we encourage booking in a trial day prior to boarding to help your dog settle in.

🐈 Home Visits For Cats

I am fully insured, have lived with both indoor and outdoor cats and have experience with kittens to super seniors, including my own beloved cat who lived to 18 years old. From feeding and watering to cleaning litter trays and administering medication, I will ensure all of your kitty’s needs are met. I especially love sending photos of them to you and most importantly, giving them lots of cuddles while you’re away! 🐾
