    About Claire

    Hi there, My names Claire. I'm a dog lover, living in the Reddish area. I have grown up with dogs and also had a lot of experience caring for other peoples dogs. Since having children and buying our first home I have taken time out from dog minding, but I’m really looking forward to having dogs again regularly. I have looked after several dogs through gudog and found it to be a real win-win situation. I don’t think I could afford to have a dog at the moment but I really miss having dogs around. I am for the most part a stay at home mum to our 13 month old and 6 year old, but I do work at an after school club for a few hours each week. This means I’m lucky enough to have the freedom to get out walking a lot and can enjoy the country park, just five minutes from us. Naturally, dogs would enjoy our outdoor schedule, but also have a decent sized, secure garden to run around in. Dogs that I care for would never be left alone, as the few hours a week I am working my partner is at home. I always treat the dogs I look after as my own family. I love them getting on my bed for a snooze or a cuddle on the couch. Having young children, it is very important that any dog we look after is friendly with them. I think our family is more suited to relaxed dogs at the moment (who aren’t too jumpy). I believe my previous reviews on the site speak for themselves, but I know how important it is to find the right person to care for your dog, so please feel free to message for visits to see if we are a good fit for you and your dog. If you want to leave your pet, safe in the knowledge they will be cared for, comfy and constantly doted over, please look no further! * Apologies for any inconvenience caused if you have previously sent a booking request or message (I had thought my profile was temporarily deactivated while taking a break from dog sitting and missed lots of messages).

    Pepper loves going to Claire for dog care and Claire is great with her.

    Pepper had a great time with Claire and her family this weekend. We've already booked more days!

    Claire and her family took amazing care of Ziggy while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better home for Ziggy. Having never left Ziggy in boarding before we were apprehensive but Claire completely put our mind at ease with regular updates and messages. She really made Ziggy apart of her family and we know that in the future we have a great place Ziggy to be if we need to leave him again.
