About Lorna

I'm very passionate about making sure that the dogs in my care are given a home from home. I love walks around the village, runs in the park or fields with a furry friend in tow. Our day starts with dropping my children to school and then straight out the door for hour long walk around the village or a run around the enclosed fields behind my home. Weather dependant the dogs can then snuggle up and snooze by the fire in my kitchen while I make dinner or do house work. They are allowed to roam the full house and garden as long as I'm with them. We have a big garden, so after the snooze they love to head back outside for some ball play. The dogs are only in their pens while I'm collecting the kids which takes 20mins max. If they are staying overnight they'll sit with us in the kitchen or sitting room till I'm going to bed and will then be put in their pens snug as a bug. I have 3 children, 10,8,5 and we have 1 dog Maisie who is a rescue she's 10. Her pal Millie passed away 18 months ago and she's been lost ever since. That's how I got into minding dogs as they're great company because I just wasn't ready to replace Millie she was a wonderful dog.

Cody stayed for 4 nights with Lorna and her family. Definitely a home away from home for Cody - he loved it and very reassuring for us that he was safe and well looked after. Great coming home to a happy dog , Cody looking forward to his next holiday at Lorna’s .

We had some concerns about leaving Spencer with a minder after being at home with us for so long over the pandemic but we needn't have worried. Lorna and her family have a great set up at their home and took great care of our dog. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and we will certainly use her again.

Charlie had a great time with Lorna. He was really well looked after by Lorna and the family (the dog squad!), he loved the walks and the company of the other dogs.
