Tail-Wagging Walks and Peace of Mind for You

I've been a dog lover my entire life, with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. From playful terriers to gentle Labradors, I'm comfortable with a wide range of breeds. I have experience with puppy training, including taking my own dogs through training classes, and I'm also adept at providing attentive care to senior dogs and those with special needs, such as nervous dogs. I understand that each dog is an individual, and I tailor my approach to their specific needs, whether it's a calm walk for a senior dog or an energetic play session for a puppy.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is their comfort, safety, and happiness. In Your Home: I follow your instructions meticulously, maintaining your dog's routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, medication administration (if applicable), exercise routines, and any specific commands or training techniques you use. I'm respectful of your home and belongings, ensuring everything is left as I found it. In My Home: Your dog will become part of the family! They'll enjoy a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I have a secure garden for supervised outdoor time, and I ensure they receive the same level of care and attention as my own dog. I carefully manage introductions to my dog Lucy to ensure a harmonious environment for all. I'm happy to provide updates and photos throughout their stay, so you can see how much fun they're having.

Dan took good care of our pup and we were so grateful to find someone with such short notice who could happily spend time with her and play/fuss her. Felt reassured with the discussion beforehand and would happily book again - she was happy and well cared for!

Schedule

Pet care isn't just a job for me; it's a way of life! My daily and weekly routine revolves around providing the best possible care for your furry companions. I'm dedicated to my pet care career full-time, which means I have ample time to dedicate to your dogs. I also balance this with part-time volunteer work and my children's school schedule, which allows for a great deal of flexibility. This flexibility means I can easily accommodate your dog's needs, whether it's a midday walk, an evening drop-in, or an overnight stay. I'm available for a variety of schedules, so your pup gets the attention and care they deserve, whenever they need it. Think of me as your dog's personal playmate and caregiver, ready to fit into your family's schedule.

To provide the best possible care for your furry friend, I'd love to learn a little about them! Depending on the service you choose, some information may be more relevant than others. For example, if it's just a quick walk, I'll mainly need to know about their leash manners and any special commands. For longer stays or visits, information about their feeding schedule, medical needs, and any quirks will be helpful. Here are a few things that might be useful for me to know: Any medical or dietary needs Their exercise routine and any favorite activities Any specific behavioral traits or preferences Don't worry, we can chat about all of this during our meet-and-greet, and you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. My priority is to make sure your pet is happy and safe!
