Why I created D&A
Deluxe Dog Services

My name is Cecilia. Dogs are an integral part of my immediate family & hence I understand everyone else who feels the same about their beloved dogs.
Why D&A Deluxe Dog Services:
I have over the years travelled extensively with my dogs both for leisure, business & competitions - both in the UK & abroad & I have found myself being unable to do certain activities as dogs are not welcomed.
​
One aspect I've struggled with is to safely leave my dogs unattended in a hotel room, nor being able to take them along everywhere (such as restaurants or sights & attractions one would like to visit). This is an issue if you do not have a reliable dog minder on hand & generally I have struggled to find a reliable expert who can provide dog minding at relatively short notice.
Does it sound familiar?
The majority of dog sitters and dogwalkers can not do this type of ad hock short time minding/walking as they are normally tied up with their day to day clients.
Hence- from personal experience I know there is a need for the service I offer.
​
I have over 30 years of experience - looking after dogs. I have trained them for competitions/shows & have also been a judge for dog event for several years.
With my services you know your beloved 4-legged family member is well looked after & safe - so you can relax & enjoy the free time.
​
Reliability, expertise & care is what you get when hiring my services.
