We are a family of 5 (2 grown ups and 3 young kids) who love animals but are not quite ready to commit to full time ownership of dogs, so part time doggie sittings suits us well. Ours kids have 3yrs experience sitting all kinds of dogs including nervous staffys, older dogs with additional needs, bossy sausage dogs. We have everything your pooch would need including all the love (just bring their leads and food. We like to enjoy the experience so rarely double book (and only with the owners permission). The dogs have access to indoor and outdoor space that is secure, water and comfy spots to sleep. We will follow whatever routine they are used to at home and send lots of updates. I work locally to home in a dog friendly office and my husband works from home so pups are rarely left alone. We like to take the doggies on the school run walk and live very close to dog friendly parks. Our service includes: - almost constant supervision of the pets (we aim to never leave them unattended while in our care) - daily walks around our local area or at dog parks if suitable - safe sleeping environment (we have a large bed for the dogs to snuggle on but they are also welcome on our lounge / beds if this is approved by the owners) - we prefer dogs that are mid-range in size or smaller (as my youngest child is only 7 we find bigger dogs think he is a toy) - we take bookings from day-care to long stay and have regulars in both areas. we have several regulars who stay for up to 3 weels at a time - we use whatsapp to communicate with owners and share LOTS of updates (we often worry we share too many)
