Please let me know in as much detail as possible your dogs character and any do’s and don’ts. For example if they are nervous around new people (I will make sure not to have any visitors in my house during their stay) or if they can become aggressive around other dogs (I will make sure not to take them to busy parks at peak times) etc. I am comfortable administering medication if given clear instructions.

I am an active person myself and so will be up early in the morning to feed and let outside for a toilet break and run around. There are several parks within walking distance from me or if the owner is happy, I enjoy taking dogs out in my car to larger parks (such as Woodchester and Dyrham) with hours of walking and exploring. I will then usually stop at a pub or cafe for a coffee for myself and a bowl of water and some snacks for the dog. If we happen to pass a Starbucks on our travels home they are treated to a Puppuccino. When we are home I keep the back door open so they are free to run around and so that toilet breaks are not restricted. We enjoy a shorter walk in the evening (around 30 - 40 mins) and I shut the back door late when I go to bed so they have as much time in the day as possible to be outside. When looking after confident and sociable dogs I take them with me to meet up with friends at parks / pubs or take them for walks around my university campus where they enjoy endless fuss and cuddles from my friends. Obviously this is not an option when looking after nervous or antisocial dogs. I do my best to accommodate for every dogs specific needs.
