I am a devoted dog lover, looking after them and interacting with them. I grew up with dogs always in the household and they were a vital part of our family, so I am aware of their importance to their owners. I always treat them with the utmost care and respect and when they stay with us they are part of our family too. Our house is spacious and there is plenty of room outside for exercise. Lovely parks just opposite. A quiet street. Clean, non-smoking family environment. Enclosed backyard. Plenty of space to run around. We only ever board a dog(s) from one owner at a time and I rely on the owner's wishes as to whether the dog is comfortable outside or would rather come into the house - also taking into account the season and weather conditions. Your dog(s) may be taken for 2 walks every day (approx 30 minutes) usually in the morning and afternoon/evening to ensure they are well-exercised, although if they are getting on in years the walks may be a little shorter. Whatever they are comfortable with. All breeds are welcome. They will get personalised attention 24/7 so that you can feel confident that they will be well looked after while you are away. I will send you regular updates of photos and texts so that you know they are comfortable and happy staying with us and you can have peace of mind about your favourite pooch(es) while you are away. You can return with the assurance that they have been well looked after and have enjoyed their holiday break as much as you have.
