It’s not always possible to take your pup everywhere with you and you will have to look for a dog sitter in Cornwall. Whether you’re heading away for the weekend or have a slightly longer trip booked, instead of putting your pup into kennels in Cornwall why not find a lovely local friend for him?
Would you love a dog of your own but for some reason can’t have one? Why not borrow a dog in Cornwall instead. There are so many owners that would love a helping paw with dog care and so many dogs that would love an extra walk.
