This is personal, home-based care. I get to know each dog, follow the owner's rules and build relationships that last beyond one walk or stay.

Toby-lerone sitting in a grassy field

“Toby came back happy, relaxed, (and tired from the walking and playing!) and clearly well looked after.”

I'm Phil.
Your friendly neighbourhood dogman.

I'm a local dog owner helping other dog owners where I can, with Ace and Bella beside me full-time.

My days are built around dogs: time at home, plenty of local walking and getting to know what makes each one comfortable. Your rules still matter, including whether your dog can be off lead.

“Just a bloke and his two dogs, looking to help our fellow dog owners where we can.”
