Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive lifelong dog lover
Having cared for my own dog for 14 years, I have experienced the full journey of a human-dog bond – from the very first puppy training classes to countless outdoor adventures, and later, the dedicated care needed for a senior dog. Over the past two years, I have also regularly looked after a friend’s dog, adapting to a completely different personality, routine, and set of needs. This hands-on experience has given me a solid understanding of canine body language, daily routines, and individual temperaments, and I continue to deepen my knowledge of dog behaviour every day.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Deborah is an amazing dog sitter. Not only is she an enthusiastic dog lover, but she also really takes the time to get to know each dog’s personality and individual needs. She treats dogs with respect while also giving them the clear and consistent guidance they need. She did an amazing job with our Maremmano mix, who is definitely not the easiest dog! She is very good at reading a dog’s body language and making decisions based on what she feels is best for the individual dog. Our dog struggled quite a bit with the stress of being in the city, and she remained incredibly patient and understanding. When he got diarrhea during the night, she even stayed awake to make sure he was okay and had everything he needed. Your dog will have a wonderful time with her and, most importantly, will be safe, understood, and very well cared for. I would absolutely trust her with our dog again.
Deborah looked after our Oscar yesterday evening and we were really pleased with how caring and attentive she was. Communication was easy, and she was very flexible with the arrangements. It was lovely knowing Oscar was in good hands, and we’d be happy to have Deborah look after him again.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Deborah as a dog sitter. She took care of my Border Collie, Filou, and I honestly couldn’t have wished for someone better. Filou is a very energetic and sometimes demanding dog who needs lots of attention, exercise, and patience — but Deborah handled him so naturally and confidently. What I especially appreciated was how responsible and caring she was. She never hesitated to take Filou along wherever he needed to go, making sure he was happy, active, and well looked after. It was such a relief knowing he was with someone I could completely trust. Deborah has a genuine love for dogs and a wonderful way with them. She is patient, reliable, caring, and truly understands that every dog has their own personality and needs. I would happily trust her with Filou again and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a loving and responsible sitter, even for the most energetic or demanding breeds! Pascal M.

Schedule
I currently have broad, flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends, which allows me to fully dedicate my time and attention to pet care. Because my schedule is very open, I can easily adapt to your dog’s established routine for walks, feeding, and companionship. I keep my Rover calendar up to date, so feel free to reach out with your preferred times and we can coordinate what works best.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether it’s for daily walks, house sitting, or daycare and boarding at my place, your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine come first. I live in a quiet residential estate with a secure small terrace for calm downtime, and Hampstead Heath is just a 15-minute walk away for outdoor adventures. When caring for pets in their own home or mine, I ensure a calm, safe environment, keep routines consistent, and provide attentive, loving care.
