ABOUT ME!
Hi, I am Teresa. Having spent many years working in offices, I am now at last fulfilling my long-term ambition of working with dogs! As an experienced dog owner I understand how precious our furry companions are.
You can be assured that from the moment your dog arrives he/she will be cared for and loved as my own. I will only take a small number of dogs to ensure they are well supervised and get individual attention from me.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me to discuss your needs, dates, etc. and anything else!
​
ABOUT Doggy HOME FROM HOME
Your dog will have places to go to relax and chill, or can be in the thick of the toys, games and socialising! All my dogs are allowed on the sofa with me, or they can relax in one of the comfy doggy beds….
He/she will have a minimum of 1 hour walk (in two sessions) every day during day care, and holiday/overnight dogs will often also get an evening walkies as well (weather permitting).
I do not take on any additional dogs for ‘walkies’ as that would mean leaving my (and your) dogs alone, which I would never do.
Before accepting your dog I would expect to meet with you and your dog for a walk with my dogs in a ‘neutral’ place, i.e. local park of playing field, followed by an hour at my home for a ‘cuppa’ for us all to be happy with each other and my set-up, to assess how he/she will get on with my other dogs, and for an opportunity for you to complete or take away the Registration and Contract forms, which are required in the Terms of my Licence before I can accept your dog for care.

​
I reserve the right to refuse to accept your pet for daycare if (after at least one paid trial session) I feel its needs could not be met and/or would be disruptive/detrimental to the other dogs in my care. Likewise for overnight/holiday care – 1 paid overnight session is required.
