The day starts with outside time, followed by breakfast at 08:00 and then some playtime. If walking is required then walking would be next, although, I’m flexible depending on the guest, my dog, Noah, likes a snoozy morning and I do chores, read, write and keep my eyes on the animals in my charge. If I have dog walking dates I would do up to 2 or 3 of those depending on needs of the dogs. I may have some drop in visits for cats but if I have boarding/daycare I like to be at home so tend not to overbook myself. I never leave the house for longer than 90 minutes, drop ins and walks usually take 30 - 45 minutes with travel. Lunch is at 1pm. More walking dates or freelance work can happen or if I have a doggy guest that requires post lunch walk then this would be next. I tend to take Noah to the forest for an hour between 2 and 4pm. Dinner is at 6pm. There may be an evening walk if required. I tend not to give treats unless instructed to by owners. Evening is gentle play with a wind down, I sometimes watch a film or settle with a book. Bedtime is 10 - 11pm with sleeping arrangements as stipulated by owners.
