About Darren

As a lifelong dog-lover and caregiver to several dogs, I have a good understanding of canine behaviour and needs. Growing up with dogs has given me a strong foundation in caring for them, and I’ve had the joy of looking after them far and wide, from Rhodesian Ridgebacks in Portugal to Golden Retrievers in the French Alps! Whether it’s dog walking, pet sitting, or overnight care, I tailor my services to meet each dog’s unique needs, providing them with a safe, fun, and comfortable experience while you’re away.

I am lucky enough to work freelance from home, this allows me to be available 24/7 to look after your pet and ensure they can keep to their regular routine. It also allows me the freedom to come to your house if it would be more suitable for your dogs :)

A typical day would involve some meets, greets, and possibly treats to help your woofer settle in and relax. Then it's off to one of the many beaches nearby for some good old-fashioned fun! I prefer to go early, but if it's very hot we may go the other direction over the magical river and through the woodlands for some sniffs and explores :) All of the local beaches are dog-friendly year-round, although if your dog is nervous or prefers to be alone, then do let me know beforehand and I can take them to some quieter spots I know. Then it's back home to lounge around the house, some playtime if they so choose, and most importantly some cuddles and snacks! I try get them out for another trot in the afternoon before collection, and if they are staying overnight we might even watch some movies on the big screen - popcorn optional!

Please do let me know of any behavioural or health issues before making a booking, I am more than happy to discuss how to best accommodate you :)
