Animal Lover & Dog Owner ❤

Located in Nursling. I work from home Monday to Friday. I live with my 9 year old pug who is extremely fun and full of character. He is very well behaved and welcoming to any dog he meets. We are looking for more friends to join us during the week or on the occasional weekend to join us on our regular dog walks throughout the day. If you have any questions or if you would like to arrange a meet please let me know and I will be more than happy to arrange a meet. I have always had dogs & cats throughout my life. I have previously worked as a volunteer for RSPCA & have run the london marathon for the dogs trust charity. I am extremely trustworthy, honest & reliable. If there are any questions you may have for me please don't hesitate to get in contact. We look forward to looking after your much loved pets ❤ David

Roscoe had a lovely time with David and Ronnie. I can go away and know that he's getting home from home care. David is so caring and allowed Roscoe to settle in on his own terms. Thanks for looking after him so well.

David is very friendly and a great communicator. He is also very clearly a real lover of dogs. Beau was very happy with David and with Ronnie the adorable pug. I would not hesitate to use David again and would highly recommend him to others looking for someone who will really care for their dog. Many thanks David.

I felt comfortable leaving my dog with Dave and Ronnie and he seemed settled and calm throughout his stay. Both Dave and Ronnie are chilled and allowed my dog to relax and be part of the household. Dave kept in touch and sent regular photos and updates. My dog is elderly and has a few quirks and Dave was not phased by him or any of his behaviours. I would definitely recommend Dave and Ronnie.

A typical day

During weekdays I often take Ronnie over the park opposite my house, with evening walks sometimes somewhere different. Weekends I am not working so like to make the most of it by going to the forest, lakes, beach or trying new walks.

I do not have a preference breed, I have looked after most breeds in my time dog sitting. Ronnie is very welcoming to all dogs he meets and is very happy to share his toys & treats. I will need to know a meal schedule, if they are allowed off lead, if they have any behaviour issues such as nervous, anxious or protective instincts to assist me on our walks, as well as what they love to do and how they like to have fun.
