I've grown up surrounded by all kinds of dogs and cats. From a very young age my parents taught me how to care for them as members of our family. Growing up, we had 2 Leonbergers and then a mini Schnauzer followed by 2 cats. I have a particular fondness for all pets and can assure you that I'll treat your pet as if he/she were my own. One of my key strengths is that I find that I'm able to get along with any dog or cat as I have yet to meet one I didn't connect with. Over the last 18 months: - I have dog sat many times, including a 10 month old puppy called Louie which I cared for for 2 months - I have done drop in visits for some dogs and many times for cats, both 1 visit per day and 2 visits per day, for 1 cat at a time to 2 cats at a time As part of my service, you will receive daily communication with updates/photos/videos of your pet so that you can see how they are doing and what they are up to while you are away. As I live so close to Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park, I would take your dog out for long walks to give him/her plenty of fresh air and exercise. As I live in an apartment, I unfortunately cannot cater to larger dogs for stays in my home. Note that for longer stays am also happy to wash your dog.
