Animal Lover With Private Courtyard By Hove Lawns
Pet care experience
Myself and my family have always had lots of animals, and they genuinely bring me so much joy. Just seeing a dog on the street brings a huge smile to my face every single time. I quit being a postman to commit fully to animal care, and it’s the best decision I ever made. I absolutely love every minute I get to spend with people’s pets. Like they say - “Enjoy what you do for a living, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” I aim to always care for one pet at a time unless instructed otherwise, so your pets will always get my full love and attention, and there is no worry of potential conflict with other pets. I have cared for many animals over the years, and I now regularly look after many people’s pets, including regular boarding, house sitting, drop-ins and walks. I also often look after and walk my family’s dogs, and I regularly dog/cat sit for friends. I volunteered at an animal welfare centre in Thailand and fell in love with a new dog and cat every day. I have experience with blind, senior and arthritic dogs, and with administering medication. I live on my own in a small but lovely flat, with a private courtyard which your dogs can enjoy, and just two minutes away are the expansive Hove lawns, seafront and parks. My flat is on a small back street with minimal noise. There is a private buzzer for my home and three door security. Whether your pet is lively or prefers to nap I can offer a cosy, safe place for them to enjoy. My aim is to give your pets an enjoyable stay away from home and make them as comfortable and happy as possible. As I’m so close to the Hove lawns and seafront, I’m in an ideal place to give your dogs the exercise they require. I look forward to meeting your four legged friends. I’m currently in the process of becoming animal first aid certified.
Reviews
Billy has been absolutely wonderful to deal with. We have a rescue spaniel and some days she can be more anxious or reactive than others, Billy has been so good at reading her and adapting his approach specifically for her needs that day. He's been reliable and personable, he sends photo updates and contacts us if he's not sure of anything. Our doggo adores Billy and I'd definately recommend him!
I desperately needed someone to walk Reggie at short notice, following a back injury. Billy made himself available and was happy to help me out. Reggie felt instantly comfortable with Billy and happily went off on their first walk together. Billy comes across as calm and kind and definitely someone I would trust to look after Reggie again.
I had to find a sitter in a short notice and Billy has been very helpful. I really appreciate it, highly recommend! 😊🐶
Billy was great with my bulldog while I was on holiday, catering for his needs and keeping me updated! Really appreciate Billy taking care of my dog so well.

Safety, trust & environment
I will spend as much time going on adventures, or chilling at home with the pets as the owner wishes. I will be friendly, loving, playful and encouraging. I treat people’s animals as if they were my own.
Home
Information Billy W. would like to know about your pet
It would be helpful to know if the dogs have any special dietary requirements, if they are nervous around people/other dogs, and if they have any particular games/treats/words of encouragement they respond well to.
A typical day
I will stimulate your dogs mentally and physically. We will go on adventures, exploring new places and seeing new things. There are lots of parks and the seafront nearby that I like to visit regularly.

I quit my job as a postman to focus primarily on animal care, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I am very flexible, and happy to work out whatever is best for the pets and owners.
