Pet care experience

Home away from home!

Total dog lover, with experience of owning and looking after different breeds and temperaments having owned border collies, cockapoos and an English toy terrier. I have recently adopted my own lovely (and very lively) Cockapoo called Bruno, he loves company of people and dogs and loves having other dogs to stay and play with. I’m an energetic outdoorsy type, and if they’re willing I’ll take your dog out running with me and Bruno too.

What a perfect first experience using Rover! Carys was friendly, communicated often and gave reassuring updates. Full of care and attention to Caramels needs. I was reassured I’d made the right choice leaving Caramel with her. She took Caramel on lovely walks and experience’s. Caramel seemed to thrive staying with other dogs. She was happy and relaxed throughout which was a great comfort to me. I’d highly recommend Carys and look forward to her caring for Caramel again soon! Thank you Carys!

Thank you Carys! Carys looked after my dog with complete love and he was instantly happy with her and Bruno. I was sent lots of photos and updates and she even bathed my dog so he was smelling lovely and super soft. He came home a very happy boy.

Carys is so great with our dog Daphne, always flexible and we know Daph's in safe hands when she visits Carys' place.

We recently had Carys look after our dog Diesel while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Diesel stayed at her place and seemed to have a fantastic time – he was taken on lovely walks, had plenty of attention, and came back very happy. Carys was brilliant at keeping us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she genuinely cares and made Diesel feel comfortable and at home. We’d definitely recommend her and will happily use her again in the future!

Schedule

I’m currently working full time in the office. We go out for 1 hour walk first thing, and another 30 minute walk in the evening. Because I am working full time, your dog would need to be ok staying at home during the day with Bruno, whilst I’m out to work. Weekends I’m around, we typically go for a couple of big walks and probably a stop at a pub

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a first floor 2 bedroom flat on my own. I don’t have a garden but we have a small shared yard and my flat backs onto priory park and a short walk down to Reigate heath. I’m happy to have dogs visit and sleepover at mine, and equally happy to dog sit in your home too. Always happy to take dogs in the car.

Pets

A typical day

I love to be outside so any dog who stays with me will get plenty of time out walking and perhaps running too. Bruno loves to play so they’ll love spending some time together I’m sure.

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements I should cater for. I absolutely don’t mind a dog that’s a little more energetic, or timid and shy. Please just let me know how good recall is, if they’re safe off the lead and how they interact with other dogs
