Welcome to my Home from Home page, I first started my pet sitting business helping a friend out in the Summer of 2013. Word soon spread that I looked after dogs and I found myself getting more and more enquiries, So I thought this was a good idea to help people out, who would rather their beloved pet was not kennelled. So if you work or just going out for the day and you need your doggie

walked or looked after, then I can assist. Or maybe you're going on holiday, into hospital or just out for a night, I can assist with your pets every need. I am licensed with Chelmsford City Council, fully insured and DBS enhanced. I pride myself with a personal touch, being passionate about animals and having been bought up with animals myself from a very young age. All animals are made to feel completely at home. In a safe and loving environment with me and my 2 children. Cared for in my home whether they sleep on your bed or on the sofa, there are no restrictions to the love and care offered to your pets. All pets will have access to an ample sized fenced secured green garden. I will cater for your animals every needs, from walking, dietary requirements, medication, grooming and everyday needs they are used to. You specify how many times you would like your dog to be walked and to be fed, as it is important to maintain a normal routine when they are with us. It is important for you to get to know us as you will be entrusting us with your pet. It can be a difficult decision and we want you to be totally confident with us, so prior to all first time boarders we like to meet new clients for a free initial consultation where we will meet you and your pet, answer any questions, discuss your pets individual needs and requirements. Thank you for taking time to read about me.

Looking after these dogs makes running my business so worthwhile. I have so much fun on a daily basis with them all.
I use Blasford dog field in Broomfield and Grow walkies in Boreham 2/3 times a week.(Both secure fields). When I'm not there I'm usually at some other interesting places and woods to walk. It's lovely to see the dogs that can't come off lead have a really good run around. I would thoroughly recommend both fields.

We had to say goodbye to our gorgeous kitty cat on Friday night. To say, myself, Amalie and Finley are devastated is an understatement.
Our wonderful pets aren't just animals, they are a massive part of the family. I often have conversations with my doggie owners about this.
Which I think is why I love and spoil your dogs as I know how much they mean to you. RIP darling Isaac. You almost made 16 years old ❤️💔🌈

Hi everyone

As most of you know, and to any new clients, I’ve been running my business for nearly 9 years with my registered trading name ‘Home from Home’.

In recent months I have noticed many other dog boarding businesses using the terminology Home from Home.

I’d just like to clarify I am the only business ‘Home from Home’ with that trading name licensed by Chelmsford County Council.

Please do not affiliate me with anyone else using my business title in the description of their service. I am a little home service with just me.

Many thanks for your continued custom and support and a warm welcome to new customers.❤️

Looking forward to getting back to work again tomorrow, after a well deserved week off. The house has certainly been very quiet (and clean) 😅.

Just a couple of polite reminders.
When dropping off and picking up dogs, can you please be courteous where you park. Please park over the road, or across my drive, ensuring you are not blocking or encroaching any neighbours drives.
Also, if you are running late on drop off or pick up, can you just ping me a message and let me know.
Those that know me, know I'm very organised, probably too organised for my own good, but I do plan my day around the arrival and collection of my dogs.

Thank you all for your continued support, and for allowing me to look after and love your beloved family members !

This is not something I really want to do, but due to so many last minute cancellations, I will now be taking a 50% non refundable deposit at time of booking.
I've been running my business for 8 years now, and up until this year, never felt it was necessary, but unfortunately I've been let down numerous times recently.
I appreciate holidays do get cancelled, but I'm a small business with many outgoings to maintain. I also work a waiting list, with more notice I can then pass those unwanted dates on to other clients.
I do feel extremely grateful to look after so many amazing dogs over the years, and appreciate all my clients ongoing support.
Many thanks Alison.

This is how we roll on hot days. This little lady doesn't cope well with the heat, so the pool it is. She was living the best life with my daughter Amalie, whilst I walked the other dogs at 9am on grass in the shade.
