Weekend/Holiday Doggie Daycare at Maya's
Pet care experience
My name is Anastasija and me, my partner Laurence and a rescue dog Maya are looking for some company during the weekends and holidays. At the moment I am working full time and unfortunately can only take care of your pets during the weekends and later in the evening during the week. Me and Laurence both grew up having dogs in our families and cannot imagine a life without our own. I am passionate about dog training and behaviour management and have lots of experience with rescue dogs. I have volunteered for various shelters (in Grand Cayman and Lithuania) and took care of family/friends dogs of different sizes/breeds and have lots of experience with nervous/anxious dogs. If I don't have any doggie guests staying with us, I can do house checks and walks. I work in childcare and have got basic canine first aid knowledge as well as enhanced DBS Certification We live in a one bed flat in Kentish Town with many green areas around, including Hampstead Heath. At this moment, Laurence works from home and takes care of Maya while I am at work. We don't have our own garden and can use a public gardens for a potty break if needed. We have a designated dog area in our hallway with a baby gate (useful for feeding times, in case our guest is protective of their food) but other than that the gate is always open and dogs are allowed to hang out wherever they please. I usually take Maya out at least 4 times a day for at least 20 minutes. Park walks last at least an hour and we tend to drive to different parts of Hampstead Heath, Regents Park or Primrose Hill. We take Maya everywhere and Would love to have another dog with us! Our guest will have my full attention and will not be left alone.
Reviews
Anastasija was so great with Momo! We had a great day out knowing he was looked after and was having a good time with Maya too ?
Ana got on beautifully with Dante and he was tired and satisfied after his walk. We will definitely be using her services again!
Maya had the best time staying in with Anastasija! She can't wait for the next time :)
I have known Anastasija for nearly 20 years now. Since we were little kids, her biggest wish was to own a pet, more specifically a dog. My family didn't own a dog, but we did have a cat. Even though throughout the years Anastasija developed a mild allergy, she would always hang around my place and spend time with my cat, even when her eyes start to swell lightly and her hand start to itch she would not put him down. Her love for animals for something everyone around was aware of as she would stop and pet every dog on the street. I remember very vividly the day her mom told her they were getting a dog.You could not find a happier girl in this whole world.She was obsessed! She took such a good care of him, a tiny Yorkshire terrier. He could not have landed in a better home. While living in Grand Cayman Anastasija signed up as a volunteer for a local dog shelter - that's when you think most of the people would just spend their time sunbathing on the stunning beaches of the island. She instead took the dogs with her so they wouldn't miss out on the freedom of running around and being loved and taken care of.It was then that I think she decided one day she will adopt a dog from a shelter, which she's done after relocating to London. Poor little Maya has been brought to UK after living in a shelter in Lithuania. Anastasija spend countless days and nights making sure Maya made the most of her new welcoming environment. Her and her partner made all the necessary arrangements for a scared anxious dog and you wouldn't believe what a different dog Maya became since. All the love Anastasija has she gives to Maya. I would not hesitate to trust Anastasija with any pet.She will do her best looking after them and making sure they get every bit of attention and love they need.
