Pet care experience
Hi, I am Astor, I am a legal professional who works from home full time. I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, train, bathe and groom their pets. I have had Gooda, a Labrador retriever when I was young and recently brought home a Bichon Frise puppy as my own and have been training her since she was 12 weeks old. My 8-month-old puppy is very sociable and calm around other dogs and cats - she has lived with Luna, a 1-year-old Ragdoll; Tony, a 3-year-old english shorthair cat, Toffee, a 3-year-old Manx; Archie, a 4-month-old Maltipoo; Tino, an 11-year-old Bichon Frise ; Otaru, a 3-year-old Shiba Inu ; George an 8-year old bichon; Moana and Juco mix breeds (30-40kg each) ; Ice and Storm (husky mix breeds brother and sister 40kg each), Lola, 10-month old labradoodle (25kg) Otaru, a 2 year-old Shiba Inu and so on. In the first few days I usually isolate my puppy in a crate away from the guests so that they can have some time to get used to each other.
Reviews
Astor was lovely and kind. My dachshund enjoyed spending an evening with her while I went out for an evening in London. I recommend her for house and pet sitting.
Astor did such an amazing job looking after Millie! She kept her busy with walks and playing and even trips out to dog friendly cafes! She gave regular updates so I never had to worry and the house was immaculate when I came back! Thank you so much!!
Astor looked after Elora on new years! Very communicative and was attentive to Elora. Although Elora was super excited being with another dog, Astor did a great job of looking after her. Elora came back tired and super happy. Thanks a bunch Astor :)
Astor was great with Gimli and kept me up to date with videos and pictures. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment
In my home I give the pets as much attention as possible - I hug my own bichon frise to sleep and she usually falls asleep on my lap. I am very keen on grooming and hygiene. I clean her face every time after she has eaten to remove as much tear stain as possible. In the morning and before bed I wipe the pets' face and paws with non-alcoholic baby wipes to maintain the highest hygiene possible. I also comb their hair at least twice a day, and apply paw balm before bed. I clean their bowls every time before and after eating with a cloth special for pets only. I am also a big fan of nutrition. My pet and the pets I sit can enjoy the highest quality of organic treats besides their nutrition such as strawberries, blueberries, a variety of vegetables, beef, lamb, fish, salmon oil and healthy treats bought from Japan.

Information Astor C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviours that I can account for. Please also let me know if they have any allergies. Please also provide a brush for brushing their hair as I like to keep them tidy and clean during their stay. Please note that an additional cleaning fee of £20 will be charged for any indoor accidents.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We will play a bunch of games, check out all the new smells in my neighbourhood, and explore a big park near my home.
