Pet care experience

Loving pet sitter and animal lover

I've had dogs all my life and currently have two friendly small recue dogs who get along well with other dogs. I'm a huge animal lover and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, making sure they're happy, comfortable and well cared for. I love being outdoors and going for long walks, so your dog can look forward to plenty of exercise, attention and enjoyable adventures. Having recently moved to Edinburgh and taken a break from teaching, I have lots of time and flexibility to dedicate to caring for your pets throughout the day. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I will care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, loved and happy while you are away. I will send plenty of updates too.

Claire was undoubtedly a first class find! Her understanding of dogs needs & behaviour was evident from our first meeting with Bailey. From initial bonding walks to belly rubs on the sofa to lovely walks on the beach Bailey had an amazing time. It is always difficult leaving your dog with someone you do not know especially when you are hoping to relax & enjoy a special event . But, we were sent pictures & feedback twice a day & it was evident Bailey was very happy which enabled us to relax. The final touch was a lovely report card sharing how Bailey had behaved - such a lovely idea! We cannot recommend Claire enough & when back in Scotland we would have no hesitation in booking Bailey in again!

Schedule

I'm an early riser so befornmy morning coffee I will take the dogs out for a 45 minute walk. When we come back we have a cuddle on the sofa while I have my morning coffee. I will be home with them most of the day and if I am going anywhere my partner works from home so she will be home with them instead. I will take them out again between 3-5 for a longer walk between 1 - 2 hours long depending on what dogs I have an whether they prefer longer or shorter walks.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced garden and two friendly dogs. One can be initially grumpy but he's 9 now so soon gets over it. I will love your pet as if they were my own and they will soon become part of the family.
