Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Owner with a work-from-home job
I have experience contributing to the raising, training and caring for 11 dogs over the course of growing up on my family farm. This includes training Border Collie puppies to be working sheep dogs, crate training a terrier and a cocker spaniel as well as senior care to many of our dogs. Although I do not currently have a dog of my own at my flat, I feel my experience and background positions me well to be an effective and reliable dog sitter.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Just brought Tilly back from her first visit with Edward, and she's come back very happy. We did a meet and greet with him beforehand and she took to him straight away. He's clearly a dog person! Lovely to have someone nearby to look after her.
Edward has been great with Wilf, who is anxious and sent regular updates and photos. Would highly recommend Edward and would not hesitate to have him to look after Wilf again.
Molly and Dexter seem to have enjoyed their stay with Edward, as they did previously. Both were very pleased to be staying there when we arrived Monday morning. Great communication and photos, 2nd time of using Edward and will definitely use him again.
Gerry has just had his first ‘holiday’ with Ed, staying with him for five nights. He has had the best time and treated as part of the family. I can’t emphasise strongly enough how much it means to me to have found someone who cares so much about my boy. I have no worries whatsoever about leaving Gerry with Ed, knowing he will be looked after so incredibly well.
Absolutely wonderful care as always
As always Gerry was extremely happy to go to Edward’s today. He now runs straight inside as if he owns the place. Gez has been very unsettled this week due to changes in his routine as I’ve started a new job and he is very clingy, but he was so content to be with Ed today and has come home very calm!

Schedule
I have a full time job working from home. I am a project manager at a web development agency. This gives me a great amount of flexibility during the day. Currently I work from 8am-4pm but I can sometimes start earlier or finish later depending on a few different factors. Every day after work I go for a walk on the canal which is less and a minute away from my front door. This is an ideal place to take your dog for a walks during the day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for dogs in my home. I have created a comfortable, secure, and pet-friendly environment, ensuring that each dog has a designated space to rest and play. I always keep hazardous items out of reach and maintain a clean, organised space to prevent accidents. Dogs in my care are supervised at all times, whether indoors or during outdoor activities, and I follow owners' specific instructions to maintain their dogs' routines and comfort. With my full-time work-from-home job, I'm always available to give the dogs the attention and care they need and deserve.
A typical day
I work from 8-4 each weekday so will be able to keep a constant eye on your dog and take them for toilet breaks and walks as often as they require. After work each day I go on a longer walk along the canal which is a minute from my front door. It’s a perfect place for a longer walk.
