We are like a 'HOME AWAY FROM HOME' for your fur babies! Everyone gets treated like apart of the family during their stay and we try and make it fun, comfortable and relaxing for everyone with lots of cuddles and snuggles along the way :-)

A meet and greet is require prior to any FIRST visit as we like to know that both owners and dogs will be comfortable with myself, our home

and other dogs while you are away. MEDIUM - we don't like to say 'NO' to anyone's fur babies but when we do it is for safety reasons as we need to be careful of the energy level of the bigger dogs around the little doggies as everyone interacts and we want to make sure no one gets hurt by accident or is feeling unsafe or uncomfortable ...please accept our apologies if we are unable to have your fur baby here for a holiday ... saying NO isn't easy as we love them all equally

We hope everyone has plans in place to make sure your furry family are safe at home and can’t get out and go for a wander 🐕 🐕 🐕

We are all prepared for the 9pm AND midnight fireworks - we will all be inside with TV on, music on in the other room for extra background sound blockout and shutters down to try and muffle the noise as much as we can as our furry friends have extra sensitive hearing 👂 🎇

Hope everyone has a fantastic New Year 🥳 🥳

Some of our Christmas and New year furry visitors 😍 🐕

First thing that happens is the gate opens - then out they come …. It’s a bit like follow the leader … although some like to try and double file out 🙄 🤣 😊

Then some like to tell me all about their night 🐕 🐕 🐕 …. While others are offfffff and having some fun with their friends playing chasings and tag 😍 🐕

Others just like to go out for toilet, a little look, then back inside on the lounge to wait for breakfast 🍳

Others just like to stand and watch all the fun - sometimes i wonder if they are thinking “oh aren’t they just children, i am too mature for these games so early in the morning ” 😂

Then it’s inside for breakfast and rest time to let their little tummies settle ♥️ 🐕 ♥️

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas - and not long until we are into another year … some of us used to hang to get to 21 (🙋‍♀️ 🙄) and after that the years seem to roll on by way too fast ….. 💨 🏎️

We hope everyone has a wonderful New Year … and that 2025 is kind to you all and brings only good and happy things … 🎉

Take care and keep safe and lots of love from us all here at LDR ♥️ XOXOXX ♥️

I have never had anyone SO accommodating when it comes to getting photos ... everytime he sees me walking around with the camera he is like "over here, I'm heeeere, here look at this pose, what about this one, what else can I do for my portfolio 🤣🤣🤣 ... 😍😍😍

When your fur visitor invites a fun furry neighbour over for a little play while he waits for more friends to arrive for Christmas - oh then the choices of playmates begin, sooooo much fun 🤩 … but I’m sure he will still want more play dates with his neighbour friend though .. i mean, why not be greedy if you can 🤣 😍 🐕 and also soooo much better than just having a chat through the fence 🤣🤣🤣

Some excitement after a group meeting .. i think Archer was letting the girls know that "balls and ball time are his obsession - so keep out of the road so none of us end up in Emergency" 🤣🤣

When you have just had some good outdoor playtime, then go and get into bed and konk out, then wake up feeling thirsty but you just can't be bothered getting up, so you just slowly pull yourself "in your bed" closer to the water bowl to have a drink, without having to go through all the effort of having to stand up, get out of bed and walk over for that drink ... i enjoyed watching the process 🤣🤣🤣 oh you make us laugh Archer 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

The worst part about life is losing those we love … but the best part is having the time and many wonderful moments filled with love while they are here with us ♥️ 💙

There have been a few who have left us this year and it never gets any easier hearing they are no longer with us … 😭 💔 🌈

I don’t usually post each individual fur baby when they have left and have crossed over the rainbow bridge as i never want to post before family and friends have been informed but we never ever forget any single fur baby who have been for holidays and are no longer with us … they all become apart of our family and the love we grow for them never leaves .. and i often go through my camera roll and reminisce … and yes, upset myself too …. ♥️ …. If your little one isn’t in these pictures it doesn’t mean we have forgot them, it just means that they are on one of our other camera rolls…♥️ 😘

I used to want to be a vet when i was ending my school years but when i thought about it i didn’t think it would be a good idea as the hardest part of the job would be having to say goodbye and i would have ended up needing extensive therapy - true story - so i decided to stick to my office jobs .. i even went and did my diploma in centre based childcare .. then went back to office work … but THEN 12 years ago i came back to taking care of fur babies like i always wanted to do from a young age … but then i realised, we still go through the ‘loss’ after growing to love them like your own - and although it’s painful hearing they are no longer with us, i wouldn’t change caring for all your fur babies for the world 💓 ♥️ 💙

Thank you thank you all SO SO much for trusting and allowing us to take care of your precious little darlings … ♥️ … every single fur baby who comes here are SO SO loved and adored by their families and it certainly shows - and then we are lucky to be able to add to that love being their auntie and uncle .. ♥️ 💙 💓 🩵

♥️ 🐕 💙 🐶 💖

A mixture of Fun, cuddles, play, naps, chasing balls, sleeping, interactions with choice of friends, snuggles, solo times as required … and whatever our visitors need 😍 🐕 ♥️ 🐶

We understand how hard it is to leave your little loves … me being an extremist who cries when i have to be away from our girls … regular updates on very first stays will be sent and if i have any questions or concerns i will contact you ASAP … it’s all about doing whatever needs to be done to let your fur baby know they are safe and loved then the next time they visit they should be more relaxed knowing they are here for some fun with new and old friends with some auntie and uncle fun and cuddles added … and knowing they will be going back home to their family at the end of their very own little holidays 🐶 🐕 😍

Thank you so much to everyone for trusting us with your precious gems … 😘 💓

When you are minding your own business having a good time and you catch someone invading your privacy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

When your fun friend arrives and it all begins ... and you can't help verbalising your joy that he's back 😅🥰🫠😀

We have found someone's favourite show ... Basil watched almost the entire episode of "The Dog House" very intently .. sometimes having a few grumble chats through it 😍😍😍

🐶🐶 READ MY TAIL 🐶🐶 I could sit here all day being told what a good girl I am ... 🐕 Don't stop ... tell me more ... 😃😃😃

These two have been having so much fun playing chasings after the lawn has been freshly mowed ... when you have short legs you can get heaps more speed up without having to contend with long patches 😃😃🤣🤣🥰🥰❤️❤️
