Highlights
Pet care experience
Kind, experienced sitter
I grew up with cats and have had dogs in my adult life. I'm empathetic and understand how both cats and dogs communicate. I sadly lost my Greyhound to cancer last year but this has made me confident with administering medication and caring for animals with additional medical and physical needs. My Greyhound was also a rescue and had some behavioral needs when she first came home which I worked closely with her to resolve. I regularly dog sit for friends and family who always comment on how much their dogs love coming to stay.

Ratings and reviews
Beckie was so lovely and accommodating when looking after my Edgar, and when I came to pick him up he didn't really want to leave! She’s a very safe and caring sitter and I’d gladly book with her again 🙂
Olive had a lovely day with Beckie! Thank you for looking after her
We left Fig in great hands with Beckie and Ed. They were super receptive to her needs and adapted her stay to ensure she was always comfortable. Fig had a great time and didn’t want to leave.
Beckie took great care of Maggie for the day and managed to keep her cool and happy during 30 degree heat! Thank you
Beckie and her partner were the perfect match for us, extremely easy, accommodating, really lovely couple - we felt at ease straight away leaving Sandy with them, will definitely recommend and will be asking them again in the future when we’re back in the area 😊
Beckie regularly looks after our dog and friends dogs. She is kind an gentle and absolutely loves dogs. She takes time to make sure our dog is happy, entertained, gets lots of cuddles, and goes on walks with her. In fact our dog has such a great time with Beckie, she doesn't want to come home! Beckie takes such good care of her, and is reliable and easy to communicate with. She takes all the stress out of leaving your dog with someone. Highly recommend.

Schedule
I work from home 3x a week so can have calm low energy breeds midweek. At the weekends I am usually available and am able to have more active breeds.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a ground floor flat, with a big sofa and space for a dog bed/crate. There is some road noise but the area is quiet and tranquil. I don't have a garden but I take dogs out 2x a day for a walk and 2x a day to use the toilet and have a sniff. I'm close to parks and the beach and mix up my walks to include calm sniffing time and some play time if that's what the dog requires. I can also do some training if requested. I have plenty of dog toys and a raised feeder/water bowl. Dogs are allowed on furniture and will be treated as part of the family.
A typical day
I like to enrich dogs with a lot of sniffing work, either feeding on a snuffle matt or encouraging calm sniffing on walks. For dogs that get more enjoyment from playing I have lots of toys for them to choose from. I live near multiple parks and the beach, and have a car so can go for longer country walks on the weekends so the dogs get variety and lots of new smells.
