DOG WALKING
I'm here to help dog owners give their animals more exercise and playtime whether they need daily walks in the park or an occasional toilet break in their own back garden. My dog walks take place in one of our local parks, farms or woodland and you can choose from solo walks, pairs or small group walks depending on your dogs preferred choice.
My vehicle is fully equipped with safety crates and harnesses plus the obligatory drinks and treats.

CAT VISITS
I offer your cat an ideal alternative to the cattery by visiting and providing tailored care in the comfort of their own homes, following their own routine. From feeding and grooming, to cleaning litter trays and bowls, I will become their personal cat butler while you're away. I can send updates and photo's each day so you know exactly what they've been spending their time doing in your absence .
I will also open and shut curtains, water houseplants and take in the post for you.
15 - 20 minute visit £10
30 minute £15
SMALL ANIMAL CARE
Small animals need holiday care too, and as much as you might trust friends or family to help, for complete peace of mind it’s best to place your trust in a professional pet carer.
My small animal care service allows you to go away happy in the knowledge that your pets will be well looked after.
I can look after chickens, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, degu and ferrets, as well as fish, caged birds, chickens and most other pets!
15 - 20 minute visit £10
30 minute visit £15
DOGGY DAYCARE
What happens - Your dog will either be collected in the morning and spend the day with me, or can be dropped off by you at a time to suit.
We will enjoy a morning and afternoon walk to match their energy levels and spend the day doing enrichment activities such as treasure hunts, scent trails, agility games or chilling out with a frozen homemade chicken kong or lickit mat. Dogs have full access to my home and garden, allowing for plenty of relaxation and playtime.
To ensure a positive experience for everyone, I have a limited number of daycare spots available. Each dog will undergo a friendly assessment to ensure they are relaxed and sociable and above all kind and calm allowing for a fun-filled day alongside our other canine guests.

REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR DOG'S STAY WITH US
I welcome well behaved, kind, calm and friendly dogs who are fully toilet trained to stay with us in our family home.
Dogs need to be fully vaccinated, regularly wormed & parasite controlled.
To ensure a harmonious stay, a meet and greet must be completed before we can accept your dog into our home so we can assess whether your dog will be happy during their stay with us.
Dogs who sleep on their owner's bed do need to be comfortable with sleeping downstairs away from human contact before boarding with us.
From experience we have found large boisterous dogs are not suited to our home boarding.
Please note that we cannot accommodate dogs that have ever shown aggressive behaviour to dogs or people.
I am licensed by Lichfield District Council to offer Dog Day Care and Home Boarding for up to 5 dogs including my elderly Japanese Spitz who welcomes any friendly dog into his home 🐾
RABBIT BOARDING
Board your bunny with us while you're away. We supply a luxury 6ft x 2ft x 2ft rabbit hutch complete with thermal, waterproof hutch cover and daily access to large run.
All rabbits must be vaccinated with Nobivac or equivalent Myxo vaccine.
We supply bedding, hay and fresh greens - just bring own rabbit feed.
PRICE
£10 per night
