I'll love your dog like my own!
Pet care experience
I moved from Washington DC to London in 2023, and I love my new home but desperately miss my family dog! My family got Stevie, a havanese-shih tzu, as a puppy in early 2020, and I swear my heart grew 10x larger. I had experience walking and caring for dogs growing up, but nothing makes you love pup time more than caring for your own. We did it all - potty training, crate training, teeth brushing, fetch, and regular cuddles. When I moved into DC, my flatmate and I did Rover services - because we missed our family dogs so much! - and regularly boarded, walked, and did drop-in visits for dogs in our neighbourhood. Overall, I have extensive experience caring for dogs - including training puppies and navigating pet illnesses - and look forward to becoming best friends with yours.
Reviews
Bailey is fantastic with Frankie each time she watches him! He is played with, walked, cuddled & treated as her own. I’d recommend her to anyone!
Bailey looked after our two dogs, Cleo and Gloria, for over a week and was absolutely fantastic. She took great care of them, kept us updated with regular pics, and left the flat spotless. The dogs were clearly happy and relaxed when we got back. We couldn’t have asked for more, would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Bailey is an amazing dog sitter who helped keep our rescue pup company while I was away on a work trip. She provided detailed feedback, photos and was flexible when we needed to add an extra day at short notice. Our dog is *very nervous* and struggles with separation anxiety, and Bailey's presence and professionalism lead to clear improvements in our dogs mood and temperament, as he was clearly less anxious and less nervous with each visit. We've never had that before with other sitters! We highly recommend Bailey and we hope to call on her again whenever we need a dog sitter!
Bailey was wonderful with our dog Winston, we would highly recommend her and are looking forward to seeing her again!

As a pet-owner myself, I get how imperative it is to establish trust with a sitter or walker. It's important to me to know your dog's routine and preferences (whether that's their favorite treat, tickle spot, or regular walking route), as well as what is off limits or should be avoided, such as certain areas of the home or encounters with other dogs. My preference is always to meet you and your pup ahead of time to exchange this information and establish trust!
Information Bailey D. would like to know about your pet
Ahead of time, I’d love to know more about your dog's temperament, activity level, dietary needs/restrictions, and any medical issues. In case of any issues, I’d like to have the location and phone number of their vet in case of emergencies. It would also be great to know if you have a particular schedule of when you usually feed and walk your dog. And for the more fun part - where your dog’s tickle spot is, and how many photos you’d like to receive of them ☺️
A typical day
Depending on how active and energetic your dog is, I would take them on a long walks through neighborhoods or spend time exploring the sights and smells of a new park. If they have a favorite toy at home, you can count on me to play fetch or any mind games that are part of their routine.

Availability
My job is full-time remote/wfh, so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your pet! I am available during the daytime for walking, pet-sitting, or check-ins, and would be delighted to wfh and watch your pet while you’re in the office. My weekday schedule can be quite flexible, and I can often do weekends as well with more than 5-days notice.
