Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether you pet is a house animal or likes lots of time out in on your property or walking them further afield that is fine with me. Once your (normally) dog has gotten used to me I am happy to take them out for on-lead walks as required. Cat cuddles are obligatory, but if your cat is shy or less used to others I'm happy to quietly sit with them and we can discuss the state of the world and put everything in order (as only a cat can).

Arlete was fantastic looking after our cat again. He is nervous around people and she always takes the time to look for him and send us updates which we really appreciate 😊 Thanks Arlete x

Arlete was great with our cats! Sending pictures and updates letting us know they they’re okay. Will definitely be using Arlete again for our boys as they seem to have loved her. Would absolutely recommend.

Arlete has a very kind heart and good energy, my border collie Audrey demonstrated high level of trust to her from first minutes and welcomed like an old friend. Arlete has a great skill of communicating with dogs, it's immediately obvious - engages in play & training, praises with very positive attitude. All my instructions were carefully followed, we received few photo updates despite only being away for day errands. Even dog pans and licking mats had been all washed, it never even crossed my mind and came as a good surprise! IWe had no worries whatsoever and felt our dog had a good time with Arlete. Thanks for that! It's a relief to know such a reliable person, look forward to next time!

Great service provided by Arlete. Our cats are extremely shy and timid but they soon settled down once they’d used to Arlete. Regular photos were sent to let us know everything was ok. I would happily use Arlete’s services again.

I am currently looking to build a new career after recovering from three bouts of cancer and want to help others near me look after their furry four legged friends. The more the better as I am very happy to make this my full time work - how could I not spending all day cuddling your cats and dogs, all of us getting great exercise whilst walking them, or chasing them round the garden
