Meet Zoe - The Founder
My name is Zoe, and I’m delighted to welcome you to Fido’s Friends.
Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. Long before I launched my business, I was the person friends and family trusted to look after their dogs while they were away — and it quickly became something I truly loved.
In 2014, I turned that passion into a profession and established Fido’s Friends here in Bournemouth. What began as helping out quickly grew into a fully licensed, professional dog care service built on trust, reliability and genuine affection for every dog in my care.
I share my home with my much-loved Sprocker Spaniel, Bertie, so I completely understand how important it is to feel confident and reassured when leaving your dog with someone else. They are not just pets — they are family.
Professional, Qualified & Fully Licensed
Fido’s Friends is fully licensed by BCP Council (5-star rated), fully insured with public liability insurance and I hold Distinctions in:
A Calm, Home-From-Home Environment
My approach is simple: provide a safe, structured and loving home environment where dogs feel relaxed, secure and genuinely cared for.
To maintain harmony and ensure a calm group dynamic, I welcome dogs who are well-socialised, house-trained, neutered and comfortable around other dogs.
Every dog in my care is treated as an individual, with routines respected and attention given — just as I would expect for my own.
