Experienced and Reliable dog-walker/sitter

Pet care experience

**Fully vaccinated for Covid-19** I am an experienced dog walker, sitter and boarder. I grew up with dogs (my grandmother was a breeder) and love them very much! I'm experienced with small and large dogs, and with shelter dogs and geriatric ones too. I am certified in dog first aid and CPR. I can provide references from clients from outside this site as well. I am a PhD student, and I work from home, so available weekdays and weekends. I live a few minutes away from a large park, and happy to go for long walks and games, either socialising with the other dogs in the area or on-leash. I can pop in and sit for you whilst you are away, either doing daily drop-ins or house-sitting as well as boarding in my spacious home. Let me love your dogs (and cats!) like they were my very own! I can also provide light training. I have access to a car for boarding pick-ups and drop offs, but only take regular walking/drop-in clients within my catchment area. My home is large and spacious, with a huge fenced-in garden for romping around in. There are no other pets or children in the home. I had several testimonials and references before the service transferred from DogBuddy, but can provide references upon request.

Benjamin was fantastic - would highly recommend him. Our dogs are lovely but can be needy and they were clearly well looked after and enjoyed their time with him. The house was also just how we left it when we got back. Would definitely use Benjamin’s services again.

Benjamin was an extremely friendly and professional person. Kenji was instantly in love with him. If we ever need anyone to look after Kenji again, we'll definitely be asking him!

Benjamin was absolutely amazing with my 13 week old puppy! Due to work requirements, Benjamin spent lots of time keeping my puppy company, playing, training and walking him. He was super flexible to meet my requirements and my puppy loved meeting him and spending time with him. Benjamin also offered me so much advice and has been a great support for me over the last couple of weeks. I will definitely rebook his services when the need arises again.

Benjamin has been taking care of Elvis daily for a few weeks now. Elvis loves him and Benjamin takes great care of him. Highly recommended!

Information Benjamin P. would like to know about your pet

For dog-walking: It is important to know how well behaved your dog is on a lead, how good their recall is, how they react to other dogs/cyclists/humans, what commands you use, if they are likely to pick up scraps, etc. For dog-sitting/boarding: It is important to know your daily routine including meal, walk and bed times; where they sleep; if they are allowed on furniture; what toys/activities they like to keep them entertained, any special needs/medications and how long/how they respond to being left alone.* *When boarding, we don't leave your pets alone, but occasionally need to run to the shops, etc.

A typical day

Our morning begins with a quick potty break in the garden while I have my coffee, before going for a walk along Great Central Way (which runs just behind our place). After lunch, we usually go to Aylestone Meadows for a long leisurely walk . After dinner, a brief walk around our quiet neighbourhood and cuddles and TV before bed.
