Highlights
Pet care experience
Where pets are treated like Family 😃
I’ve looked after friends’ dogs for years now as I absolutely love them and dogs seem to always like me and listen to me! I always make sure to ask and understand the routine that a dog had at home so I can try and follow it. I am aware that dogs love a routine so sticking to it is very important to me. I like to treat dogs like family so play time, walks are a must. I also know that when dogs misbehave, feel uncomfortable or threatened I need to make sure that they are safe I intervene when I have to. Two years ago, I got my own dog, Obi the whippet, which has given me even more knowledge and experience in looking after dogs. Obi is very kind natured, like every other whippet, and gets along with all the dogs. He is very chilled and usually sleeps when we are at home! He loves to run so a bit of ball catch competition will tire your dog and mine out 😉

Thank you Christos for taking such great care of Paddy. I would highly recommend Christos. We've come back from holiday and I'm not sure Paddy wanted to leave! He was loved, fed well and had fun. He kept to his routine, made sure he had his daily walks. He sent us videos twice a day, which were so reassuring. We will definitely use him again. It was so comforting knowing he was being cared for so well.
So grateful to Christos. Our dog sitter cancelled last minute and Christos happily took pig in and was wonderful. He sent regular updates with pictures and videos and I was so comfortable with leaving her there. Highly recommend and I will be using him from now on 😊 thanks so much
Christos and Obi are wonderful! Wallace loovvvvved his stay with Christos, who couldn’t have done more to be kind, accommodating and make sure he was cared for. Christos sends the best updates so you know everyone is having a great time. Thank you so much!
Christos was absolutely amazing with Ronnie! To say he is 10 weeks I was a little apprehensive about if he would settle but he got on and played with Obi so well and Christos was so amazing at keeping me up to date. Ronnie came back and slept through the night for the first time I'm not sure he even wanted to come home 😂 wouldn't use anyone else!
Christos was very accommodating with a last minute day care. He sent us lots of pictures and videos. Our dog can be a bit skittish around other dogs, but he warmed up to Christos' dog right away.
Fantastic as always

Schedule
I work from home 4 days a week and I have to be in the office every Friday, hence why I cannot have a dog staying over on Thursday nights. Any other day of the weeks is ok with me and I’m quite flexible in terms of taking the dog out for a walk or quick toilet break. There is a communal garden at my building if there is a need for that.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a fairly big, two bedroom apartment, which has plenty of space for two medium sized dogs to run around, sleep, relax or have their own space if they want to. There is a communal garden at the back of the building if I have to take the dog out for a quick toilet break and within a 2 mins walk, there is a park with a massive field that your dog can walk and run around, play fetch or meet other dogs. If you dog doesn’t get along with other dogs that’s fine as we can go at different times when other dogs are not there. The field however is big enough for dogs to play alone without interruptions

A typical day
A typical day in my flat is wake up around 7am, I get ready and then Obi and I go for our morning walk to the local park which is 2 mins walk from my flat. We spend a good 20 mins there, either walking around, throwing the ball or playing with other dogs. We come home I start work and Obj usually sleeps on the sofa or his bed. We go have a little play time in between morning and lunch. At lunch time, usually 12 ish we go for another walk and this is where we spend a good 30 mins playing with other dogs that are at the park or fetch the ball. Obi loves running so I make sure he gets the exercise he needs. After that we come home and it’s work time for me whilst obi is chilling! When I finish work, we go for our evening walk around 6 and again we are out for around 20-25 mins walking around town. Obi is ok his lead during the evening walk.. unless it’s summer which means more play at the park. Evening means cooking for me and we relax on the sofa with some music or a movie.

- I would love to know about their routine for all different times of the day: morning, afternoon and evening. I would also like to know if there are any specific times the dog is used to eat, have a snack and how many treats they are allowed a day. Also, because I have a dog I want to know if your dog will be ok with that. My dog gets along with all the dogs and never had any issues but want to make sure that your dog will be comfortable
