Highlights
Pet care experience
Your local dog whisperer :)
**Due to having chronic health issues, I am unable to dogsit energetic, untrained dogs or dogs with behavioural issues. Also any dog for long periods of time!** I'm Addie, 32, she/they. I have experience with a lot of different dog breeds, from jack russels and staffys, to huskies and westies, to lurchers and pugs. From a young age I took an interest in dogs and I consider them my soul animals. I've enjoyed learning about dogs behaviours, cues and psychology which gives me a better understanding of each individual animal. I had my own dog, up until 2 years ago as she passed away and so I have experience of being the sole carer of a pet dog. I'm always my friends and families go to person for dog sitting and I've been called a "dog whisperer". One of the proudest things I can say is that all animals feel safe around me and that is such an honour!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Addy was amazing with my nervous dog. He had a lovely chilled time and I was reassured with lots of updates of their walks and sofa time. I will absolutely be asking Addy to have him again! Thank you!
Addie took great care of our dog for five days while we went on holiday. She’s very calm, flexible and understanding. I would highly recommend her!
Adi was absolutely fantastic with my two senior dogs, making sure their needs were met and they were beyond well looked after! I got regular updates and vids of them having the best time.
Adelita was great with my dog Sheroo, he enjoyed his day with her and had no issues when we left. Adelita is very calm and obviously loves dogs and she is super caring and kind in her approach. Very professional and reliable, will definitely use her again, thanks so much.
As Addies housemate I can say that I’d happily trust them with my dog. They’re kind, patient, and genuinely love dogs. Your dog will get plenty of care and attention! :)
Adelita is not only a very loving pet carer but is also incredibly knowledgable in animal psychology and uses this to look after any animals in her care to a very high standard. The most anxious of pets I’ve seen settled by Adelita, and she treats every animal as if it was her own pride and joy!

Schedule
I live in a warm and compassionate shared house with 3 other dog lovers. Everyone mostly works from home so there will never be a shortage of cuddles and attention. At the moment, I don't work due to chronic health issues, so I have a lot of free time (depending on whether I'm having a bad flare up or not). Because of this, all my love and attention is on caring for the pets I look after.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I tend to only ever look after one dog at a time, so I can give them my full attention. In my household there are no other animals or any children but people do come and go a lot and friends & partners come round. I don't have an enclosed garden but I'm happy to take them to the toilet as many times as they need on the lead. There are several grass sections and woodland right next to my house. I always wants dogs to feel like my home is their home and that includes going on the sofa and my bed, plus I have a ginormous beanbag!
A typical day
A typical day looks like playing with toys, going for walks in my local area (which can include a big park or through the woods), practicing tricks (and getting treats), cuddling on the sofa and maybe even napping together.

- Let me know if your dog has any specific needs or certain behaviours I should know about. This helps me get a better understanding of how best to take care of your pet and makes sure there are no surprises. This includes: barking issues, anxiety, house/food/treat guarding behaviours, things they're scared of, chewing habits, whether they like strokes/cuddles etc.
