When not at events, I am available all weekdays and weekends for walking, sitting and boarding; all day, everyday! I think I've come to the realisation that, like many, I prefer dogs to (some) people, so they will always have my undivided care, love and attention.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a lovely private, fully-enclosed garden with a padlocked gate. My interior space is warm, cosy and I have lots of toys to play with and treats for being a good boy or girl! I love to interact with them and have puzzles and games I like to play, as well as having a well-earned cuddle on the sofa after a big walk or a snooze in bed. Space on my bed is limited so first come first served!!

Information Andrea K. would like to know about your pet

I would appreciate if you could give me a brief description of your dog's nature, reactive situations/objects, special requirements (including dietary) and allergy info, attachment to familiar objects (such as blankets or toys) and generally an expectation from me as their loving caregiver.

A typical day

Aside from our standard, daily park walk, we love to venture further out sometimes and visit other parks and countryside. We don't usually 'street walk', but occasionally we might pop in to pick up a coffee and a pup cup. Keith sometimes likes to play ball and stick fetch and he loves his 'sock treats' (I hide treats in old socks and tie them up tightly) and puzzles. He likes to play tug sometimes too and I often play hide and seek in the woods with him. All the family dogs enjoy the same kind of fun and when at my daughter's we love to play 'chase me'! I do still like to train for a few minutes too, whether that's walking to heel, wait, stay, watch me, stop and paw. I can find fun in everything we do!

Pet care experience

I found my first stray dog, Fluffy, a standard poodle, when I was just 8 years old. I slept in his bed with him, made him breakfast every morning and cried when my father brought him back from the groomers for the first time; he was sporting the traditional 'poodle' cut and I thought he'd been swapped out! Later in life, I brought home two golden retrievers as a gift for my daughter and whilst creating some amazing memories with Zak and Oliver, I'd inadvertently lit a spark in her which I would discover later on.. Now I have Keith Woodstock; he'll be 14 in April of this year (2025). He has been my motivation and companion since my children left home. He's amazing with other dogs, in fact a friend of mine adopts greyhounds and he's taught many how to 'dog'! Ginger, Ned and Pam are my granddoggos and we spend lots of time with them. I run a small business with my daughter (part-time) and we attend many events throughout the year from Crufts to Goodwoof! I live in Roundhay and the park is just a 15 minute walk from my house. Needless to say, I am the classic 'dog person', be it puppies or seniors, large or small, I love them all.

Andi was amazing at looking after our dog, Ralph, while we were away on holiday. During the heatwave, she took great care to keep him comfortable, making sure he had early morning walks and plenty of lovely cold treats to help him stay cool. She kept us updated throughout with photos and messages about all his activities, which gave us real peace of mind. I would highly recommend Andi to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her to look after Ralph again whenever we travel.

Andrea was absolutely amazing with our spaniel Lily! We had daily updates and Lily came home exhausted after clearly a fun filled week of playing and walking! Her dog Keith is beautiful and so easily adaptable. I’m not convinced Lily was happy to come home. Will 100% be using Andrea again... ❤️

Andrew looked after my cocker spaniel, Wallace, along with my sons cocker spaniel whilst we went abroad for a week. We've never left him that long but we need not have worried as he had a wonderful time. Andrea sent lots of photos and updates of the dogs who looked like they were having a wonderful time. When we picked him up I could see he had been well looked after and he was shattered. We would 100%recommend Andrea and hopefully she will have Wallace again in the future. Thank you Andrea.
