Pet care experience
Work From Home Dog Sitter Attentive & Reliable
I’ve had my own dog for over five years, so I understand the responsibility and consistency dogs need day to day. I’m comfortable with different breeds, temperaments and energy levels, and I adapt to each dog’s routine rather than forcing my own. I work from home full-time, which means your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m available for regular toilet breaks, short walks throughout the day and longer walks at lunchtime if needed. I’m relaxed but attentive. I pay attention to behaviour, mood and routine. I’ve looked after dogs in my own home, walked them alongside my own and independently, and I’m confident managing different personalities. My home environment is calm and structured, which suits most dogs well. If you’re looking for someone steady, responsible and present, not distracted or juggling multiple commitments, your dog will get consistent, attentive care here.

Ratings and reviews
River has had a great time for Daycare with Ben 🐾 Thank you for taking care of River!
Buddy spent 1 night with Ben this weekend and was really looked after. I was kept up to date with photos all day which was lovely. Thank you both and we will be back in touch soon to book Buddy's next stay :)
Ben was brilliant with Rupert during his overnight stay, especially with the heatwave. He made sure Rupert stayed cool the whole time with a cooling mat and fans. He followed all of Rupert’s care instructions perfectly, e.g. keeping him away from stairs. Ben sent plenty of updates with photos and videos, so we always knew Rupert was happy, settled, and being well looked after. We would absolutely book with Ben again :-)
Perfect. Reg and Ruby had a great time staying with Ben. Hope to book again soon.
Ben and Rebecca have been caring for our three and a half-month-old Roger for almost a week. We were concerned about his interaction with other dogs as he is still a young puppy and easily frightened. Ben and Rebecca were exceptional with our boy. They have provided excellent care, taught him how to play with other dogs, adhered to his usual routine and treated him as if he were their own. Ben kept us regularly updated and sent us numerous videos and photographs. When we returned to collect Roger he appeared very happy and comfortable. He frequently sought cuddles from Ben and Rebecca. Ben and Rebecca, thank you for looking after our Roger. You are both fantastic! Roger will be delighted to return and spend more time with you. Thank you again for being so great with our boy.
Ben was absolutely fantastic and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Kaiser had an incredible time, Ben kept me updated throughout the day with general updates on Kaisers wellbeing and lots of photos. Ben is calm and collected and understood Kaisers requirements which made me feel at ease leaving Kaiser with him for day care. I would 100% recommend and will be absolutely using him again.

Schedule
I work from home full-time, which allows me to integrate pet care consistently into my day. I’m available for regular toilet breaks, feeding and supervision, with time for short walks and a longer lunchtime walk. My routine is stable and home-based, so dogs in my care are very rarely left alone.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, structured home environment with a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor time. Dogs are supervised and not left unattended in the garden. I follow each owner’s routine closely, feeding schedules, walk frequency, sleeping arrangements and any specific boundaries. I only take on bookings I can properly commit to, so your dog will have my full attention rather than being one of many. I’m comfortable managing different temperaments and energy levels and will keep communication clear with regular updates if wanted. For house sitting, I work remotely and can maintain your dog’s normal routine in their own home where appropriate. I respect your space and keep things clean, organised and consistent while you’re away
