Looking for people who would look after dogs in their homes


Recommended Posts

I have recently built a website that connects dog owners with people who will look after dogs in their homes. It is early days but we had our first stay this week - Rocket the Cavapoo, who stayed with Sarah and family while the owners took a short break.


We are looking for more Carers who can look after the likes of Rocket. They need to work from home, have retired, a full time Mum/Dad or maybe are studying. In short they need to be around for their new dog pals. It is a chance to earn some money and have the pleasure of the company of the likes of Rocket.


I would be delighted to hear from you if you can help, or know someone who might be interested.

Thanks for the interest. Dogs Second Home looks to provide an online community for dog lovers. People can go on to the website and search for people in their area who would be willing to look after their dog. It is aimed at ordinary folks but there is no reason why a "professional" could not be a Carer. You would simply go on and build a profile so in effect it becomes another way of advertising their service. www.dogssecondhome.co.uk


If you have any queries do feel free to give me a call.


Best

    • Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.    
    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
