Pet care experience
Trusted Dog Walker & Pet Sitter
I have years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, and I naturally tune in to their needs. Following the loss of my own dog, Molly, in January, pet sitting allows me to keep spending my time doing what I love. Based in Jesmond, I make the most of our local green spaces—whether that is walking through Jesmond Dene, the Ouseburn Valley, or heading over to Exhibition Park and the Town Moor. I focus on positive reinforcement and enrichment. I am experienced in loose lead training to keep walks calm and enjoyable, and I am currently completing formal qualifications to build on my professional training skills. Dog Walking: Tailored to your dog’s energy level, from active, sniffing-filled park adventures to gentle, steady strolls. Drop-In Visits: Ideal for feeding, water top-ups, garden toilet breaks, playtime, or company during the day. House Sitting (Thursday–Saturday): Overnight stays in your home so your pets stay relaxed in familiar surroundings. I am tidy, respectful, and keep communication clear with regular photo and video updates.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
As a responsible homeowner, safety and respect for your space are my top priorities. During house sits and drop-ins, I strictly follow your existing household rules, security routines, and feeding schedules to keep your dog feeling secure. I maintain full control on walks using secure leads, stick to safe, familiar routes, and ensure all gates and doors are firmly locked. I also send regular photo and status updates so you know your home and pets are in safe hands.
Ratings and reviews
Great communication and was happy to meet beforehand to see the cats and their schedule. Thank you!
My cats love her.
Beth has watched the cats a few times now for us. The cats were looked after and weren’t stressed when we returned home.
We book Beth every time we are away. The cats love her and they are looked after well. We’ve already booked her again - for two more times.
Beth was brilliant as always. Our cats adore her and we got back home to find them relaxed and happy.
As always, Beth was great with the cats - this is the 3rd time she has looked after them. She always takes photos which puts your mind at ease. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I work part-time, which gives me brilliant flexibility throughout the rest of the week for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. On my working days (Thursday & Friday), I can easily accommodate early morning or evening walks, drop-ins, and overnight house sitting. Outside of those days, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care, giving your dogs plenty of focused time, exercise, and company.
