Pet care experience

Dog Lover

I have grown up with dogs since I can remember. The dogs I have had throughout my life have always been medium or large breed dogs but I have looked after my friend’s dogs for them over night and these are all of different sizes. I currently have a 5 and a half year old Irish Setter who is very chilled and well socialised. He has shared his home with many dog visitors as my friends will always bring their dogs for visits, sleepovers, walks, or I will dog sit for them. I feed the dogs in separate rooms, dogs can have full roam of the house and can sleep where they are most comfortable. I will cater to the dog’s needs and want the dogs to feel as comfortable as possible. I have had my friend’s dog who had separation anxiety not want to ever go up the stairs- me and my dog slept downstairs for her stay as her safe place was the chair. She slept right through each night with us just on the settee across from her. As I work in an high school I am more suited to weekend dog sitting than weekdays - unless In the school holidays as I work in a school. I get up early and take the dogs out when it is nice and quiet to places that are safe for them to run around or explore on their lead. I also go back out in the evenings before bed. The amount and length of walks can be tailored to the dog, I love walking and so does my dog but we understand other dogs may not want as much exercise and this can be catered to as well. My garden is secure and mud free as it is artificial grass so the dogs can roam outside as much as they like whatever the weather and can get plenty of toilet breaks. They will always be watched when in the garden. My dog is known as being a King because that is how he is treated and your dog will be treated no differently when in my care, they will be my number one priority.

Schedule

I work full time so weekends and school holidays are more suited to our schedule. I am able to be home for 3:15pm on a Friday. I will tailor my weekend to the booking and ensure I am home all weekend so your dog will not be left alone. Please enquire about school holidays also.
