Pet care experience
Get on best with small to medium size dogs. I'm a fast walker or I can meander for a sniff or let them sit and watch depending on which mood they're in - or what the owner has requested.
Reviews
Douglas was great with our cat Sausage. He sent us some brilliant pictures and very thoughtful information about our cat and his daily visits while we were away for a trip. We are extremely grateful and we will definitely ask him again. Thank you Douglas for your stellar service! Highly recommended x Thank you!
Douglas did a great job with Zazie and even carried on feeding and playing with him after fracturing his elbow! Really grateful, thank you.
Douglas was great at taking care of our cat while we were home for the holidays! Very easy to communicate with and kept us fully updated with photos and messages! I will definitely reach out to Douglas again :)
Doug was so great with communication and Yuki was very happy to be walked by Doug!
About Douglas R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm not going to be taking your precious dog off-lead if the recall is not ideal. Happy to do litter tray scoops of course for indoor cats. I like to clean their bowls between servings.
Information Douglas R. would like to know about your pet
Prefer cats that don't nip. I'm up for a mini-walk (complimentary) with new dogs' owners or meet 'n' greet so we can all get to know each other.
A typical day
Dogs - We can do a long walk (hour bookings only) or a flump on the grass or slow sniff. I have a waterproof jacket and boots and don't mind the rain. Cats - Go with their agenda - head and neck rub and hello for the first third, then about as much string chasing time as they ask for.

Availability
Very flexible being self-employed - can leave my novel writing at my desk, hot-foot it over, if you're around Brockwell Park too - happy with last-minute requests. I get up early and go to bed late - plenty of time between twice daily visits perhaps. I have 2 or 3 daytime gym classes that might need to be worked around but that's usually it. And I'm very often available weekends and Friday evenings too.
