Experienced and caring - loving yours like my own

Pet care experience

Hi there! I have been dog sitting and boarding pets regularly since the beginning of 2021. I have now registered my own business for pet care called Those Old Pets, which is licensed, insured and I am first aid trained. Having owned a variety of animals since I was 8, I have always been an animal lover. I have had experience of puppies, dogs with deafness, and elderly dogs. I have had multiple dogs stay with me from a giant St. Bernard to a miniature daschund with separation anxiety. I have previously completed obedience training with my own dogs, and also done trick training too (once even putting on a doggy pantomime)! So I am more than happy to work with you to help your dog - or teach them a new trick or two. We have a large fenced garden with plenty of space for fun and games. Our house is open to dogs to explore, play and rest where they see fit. Ensuring your pets are as comfortable and happy as possible while away from you is my biggest priority. We do own 2 house rabbits who get half our our living room, they are penned off and dogs are only allowed access into that room with supervision. They are very used to dogs and will even come up and greet them through the bars. I have a fully enclosed garden, toys a plenty and lots of places to snuggle up and sleep depending on what your dog loves to do. Me or my partner will always be on hand to provide them love and support them with anything required. We have great local walks and a dog friendly park just down our road, so truly is an ideal dog haven! I am guide leader, which means any long staying dogs will most likely join me at a Brownie or Guide meeting at some point so they are not left on their own for too long. Perhaps they will earn a badge while they’re with me!

Genie and Evie came home feeling calm and relaxed after a lovely day with Bethan and her partner. Thank you so much for looking after them!

My wife and I were really happy with how Bethan looked after our dog "Havoc". She had really made sure that he felt at home. We will definitely be bringing him back to her on our next trip away.

My priority with dog sitting is always your pup! We have a large garden to run in, toys to play with, and cozy areas to snooze. I only ever take one dog at a time, or one household of dogs, to ensure that your dog can be cared for exactly how you would like them to be and my time is always focused on them.

Information Bethan D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any medical information regarding the dog that might be relevant. I would also request that I am made aware of the vet the dog is registered to in case of emergency. Please ensure an emergency contact is identified in case of any issues that may result in us being unable to care for your dog fully (unexpected sickness etc).

A typical day

I love to get to understand what makes your dog happy! We have a big garden and toys they can run about and play in, or beds and giant bean bags to rest in. We have a large park on our road they can go to for walks, but I love long walks too, through local fields and tracks. I did a lot of trick training with my own dogs growing up, and enjoy using some of those techniques to keep dogs entertained and stimulated.
