Working from home, my two dogs fill my days with joy and companionship. My routine is consistent and low-stress, making it easy to welcome another dog into our daily walks and activities. Having an extra furry friend along would only add more excitement, fun, and positivity to our routine!

Safety, trust & environment

Ensuring a pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness is my top priority, whether in my home or a pet owner’s home. At my apartment, there is a large communal garden where dogs can take a quick break from the house. The main outings are to the park, which I do twice a day, giving them plenty of time to explore and play. I create a calm, familiar environment where pets feel secure and relaxed, following their usual routines as closely as possible. A cozy bed and couch are provided, and I make sure the dog knows these are their spaces to rest and relax. While I believe dogs typically enjoy having company, especially in a new environment, there are plenty of rooms in my apartment where they can retreat for some quiet time if needed. I’m always attentive to their individual needs, offering exercise, playtime, and affection while respecting their personalities. Trust is key, and I build it by being reliable, patient, and responsive, giving pet parents peace of mind while their furry friends are in my care.

Information Devon J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours that I can account for. For example, medication or specific behaviour when on a lead.

A typical day

Firstly, if your dog is new to my home, I’ll spend a few minutes getting to know them, playing with toys and interacting gently to help them feel relaxed and comfortable. Since I work from home, I’m able to check in with them regularly throughout the day. Before long, they’re usually happily snoozing at my feet while I work! The main activities include two fun outings to the park, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, each lasting around 40 minutes, with ball fetch if allowed. In between, we’ll also have little garden breaks to stretch, sniff, and enjoy some fresh air.

Your Dog’s New Best Friend – Walks, Play & Care!

Pet care experience

Daycare and boarding include one or two trips to the park and of course usual trips to the garden. This year, I’ve been walking dogs more than ever, up to three times a day on a regular basis. One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned is that no matter how much experience you have, each dog and situation is unique and requires presence and careful assessment. Throughout my life, I’ve been highly attuned to animals' emotions and experiences, whether influenced by me directly or indirectly. I believe pets are always innocent and deserve respect, patience, and positivity. I strive to create a consistent, familiar, and loving environment where they feel safe and happy.

Devon was lovely, on time, and took great care of Charlie. Charlie is looking forward to his next walk. 🐕

Devon has been great with our Schnoodle, Piper. She is almost 1 and he has been excellent at supporting her training. We’ve used him for home visits, dog walks and she’s even stayed at his. With Devon’s other dogs she’s had great opportunities for socialising and absolutely adores him. We’ve used Devon for the past 6months and will continue to do so as and when required in the not so distant future.

I can't fault Devon with his care of my Bella with regular updates of her day with him and other dogs in his care even his own sweet dogs. Bella seems to know where she is going and gets excited when approaching Deven's home now. Bella always come home a happy girl when with Devon.

Our maltipoo pup had an amazing week with Devon. It was our first time leaving him, but we felt completely at ease thanks to the daily updates and seeing how much fun he was having. It was clear he got so much love and attention throughout his stay. We couldn’t recommend Devon more highly!
