Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong animal and dog lover
I’ve been around dogs and small animals my whole life. Growing up, our family had a Springer Spaniel named Buster (from my birth until I was about 5), a Black Labrador Retriever named Roly (until my teenage years), and a Beagle named Millie. In my twenties I helped care for three dogs full-time with a former partner — two Golden Retrievers (Shadow and Luna) and a Newfoundland (Koda) — plus three rats for three years. I’m passionate about all animals and nature, and I love spending time with pets — giving them walks, playtime, feeding, and the individual attention they deserve. I’m experienced with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels, and I’m always eager to learn more about each pet’s unique needs.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in the pet owner’s home only. I’m very attentive and follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I’m experienced with different breeds and always prioritise the pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I can give regular toilet breaks and plenty of attention during my visits.

Schedule
I work a 4 days on / 4 days off shift pattern (6am–6pm). On my off days I’m generally fully available, though I’ll update my calendar for any specific busy times. On work days I can accept walks and drop-ins from 7pm, but nothing after 9:30pm as I need to sleep by 10pm for my early shift. I’m flexible for evenings and weekends when possible and always communicate clearly.
