Information Chelcey D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you dog has any needs, routine, dietary needs (so i know what treats i can and cant give them), exercise levels, good off lead or to be kept on lead for walks, and if they are good with other dogs, I will also want vet details so that I am prepared just incase

A typical day

I have a multitude of toys for all to play with I live near the sports centre and common, great areas for a good run around. A decent size garden. I have a car so walks in the forest or beach are always an option. My home is very much a dog home, no restrictions for my dogs and same for yours unless you have other rules I will honor

Pet care experience

I love all animals and always wanted a career working with animals but life did not pan out that way. I currently work from home and feel I have more time to gain more experience working with different breeds in the hope of changing careers in the future. I am currently studying towards a Level 4 Diploma in Canine Welfare, Training and Behaviour, with the plan to complete a level 5 Canine Behaviour Practitioner Diploma and will soon be opening my own business in animal care. I do have one lovely friendly staff mix (nellie) and a dachshund (Lincoln) and they are my absolute world, so any animals coming to our home will need to be okay with other dogs, I don't have to bring them on dog walks and wont ever bring them to clients home. They are very good with dogs, excited to meet and play with them, then if they are up for it snuggle up on the sofa. I am very active person and have always owned dogs from a young age and all varying sizes. And I have experience walking and sitting dogs as a side hustle for about a number of years now I have a car so can offer collections within a reasonable distance. I can keep you updated with pictures and videos throughout their time with me so you can see how they are doing and what we are getting up to. I would like to meet all dogs for all services prior... and any that are going to around my dogs i need them all to meet as as much as I would like to make this a career my dogs comfort is of the upmost importance I cant have a dog that doesn't like them in their home and I hope that is respected. I regularly use a secured field in romsey that I can book at my expense for initial meets as there is more space to do a safe initial meet and for them to have a good old play as I feel dogs react differently on and off lead... I know mine can get very worked up on a lead when they just want to play with their potential new friend Really hope you will consider me to help care for your little fur baby :)

Chelcey did a drop in for us, she was able to do a meet and greet at short notice and helped put Luna at ease on the day. Would definitely use her services again in the future!

We had Chelcey dogsit Onyx for us on Sunday. It was Onyx's first time with Chelcey and her two dogs and they got on really well. Chelcey sent me regular updates on what they were up. She'd messaged me on how Onyx was doing after their walk. When I went to collect Onyx it was clear she had enjoyed herself and had made some new best friends. We will definitely be booking Chelcey again!

Perfect. Our nervous pup came back exhausted so we think a great play date was had. Perfect communication and service. Will use again.

We were very nervous of leaving our 2 year old lab and Chelcey was great at reassuring us. Through the stay we were sent regular updates and you could tell everyone was having fun and that Chelcey has a genuine love of dogs. Obi was wagging his tail like crazy in all of the videos and he became good pals with Nellie (Chelcey’s dog). Chelcey was professional from the outset - arranging an initial meet to make sure that the dogs got on and asking questions about diet and any rules that we wanted such as not getting on furniture. We were able to relax over our break in the knowledge that Obi was well looked after and happy. I would definitely use Chelcey again.
