I live in a flat, top floor so it is not really great for long term care although I had dogs staying with me for few nights. There are loads of parks around my area making it easy to go for walks. However I would prefer pet sitting in dog owners home to make it easier on the animals.

Pet care experience
I’m a full‑of‑energy, animal‑obsessed walker and sitter who treats every pet like they’re part of my own slightly chaotic, slightly furry family. I was born on a farm and for the past 5 years, I volunteered to pet sit my friends dogs. I’ve spent long stretches caring for two lurcher sisters who have all the classic sibling drama — sharing, not sharing, arguing, cuddling, and then arguing again. I also have been taking my friends labradoodle on lunch walks and also weekend stay overs. Lastly I have spent 2-3 weeks in a row taking care of my friends spaniel when they go on long holidays. I am good at taking dogs out 4-5 times a day, plus a long lunchtime walks. They mean the world to me, so I make sure they live like queens: blanket at every pub lunch, treats on the side, and full cuddle privileges. They’ve even mastered the art of taking over my entire bed while I squeeze myself into whatever space is left. I consider it an honour.
Reviews
Barbara is great - communicates well, arrives promptly, has a lot of enthusiasm and patience for playing and walking our dog! He's always super excited when she arrives.
Barbara has been an absolute diamond with my dogs since we were first introduced. She has had "the girls" several times now and I can honestly say that they have never stayed with anyone more professional, meticulous and understanding. To the point that when I have gone to collect them they have been reluctant to leave!! I would have no hesitation recommending Barbara to other dog owners and am certain that she would be an asset to anyone requiring dog care.

I've known Barbara for a very long time and she has looked after our dog many times when we go away. She is attentive and loving to our dog. And understands our dogs needs, happy to take her for long walks and keep her occupied.Our dog is always excited to see Barbara and usually runs to her seeking attention and knowing Barbara will play with her. I would not hesitate Barbara to any pet lovers as I know she has a genuine love for pets.
