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 amazing. He looked after Piper at the drop of a hat as I went into hospital to give birth to our son. Devon continued to keep us updated throughout our time in hospital and was very forgiving for the spontaneity of our requests! We will always continue to book Devon!! Thank you so much for looking after our girl! X

After using Devon for the first time to board our 4 year old PWD, we will ABSOLUTELY be calling upon him again in the future. Great updates over the stay where clearly lots of fun and attention was had. Our dog came back home calm, chilled and happy - the signs of a fun weekend away. Thank you Devon and all!

We recently used Devon to look after our dog, Frank, and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Devon took Frank on several walks throughout each day and was very thoughtful about adapting the routine when the weather was hotter, making sure walks and activities avoided the warmest parts of the day. It was clear that Frank’s comfort and wellbeing were always the priority. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Devon kept us regularly updated with photos, videos, and text messages, which gave us real peace of mind and allowed us to see how much fun Frank was having. We also appreciated how conscientious Devon was when it came to treats, always checking with us before giving Frank anything. That level of care and attention to detail really stood out. Overall, Devon clearly takes great care of the animals he looks after and is fantastic at keeping owners informed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and will happily use his services again in the future.
