Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive, WFH, flexible, active!
I recently moved home leaving my beloved family dog (border collie named Dennis) behind. It feels very strange without a dog in the home. I have dog sat many times before for family and friends dogs - I even road tripped with my brothers Jack Russel named Molly all the way to Italy!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I received plenty of photos and updates whilst I was away and it was clear that Phoebe loved her stay! Thank you :)
Here's a warm, genuine review that highlights the fact it was Edward's first Rover booking: I can't recommend Edward highly enough. This was his first time dog sitting through Rover, but you'd never have known it. From the moment we met him, it was clear he genuinely loves dogs and was completely unfazed by Rocco's loud, energetic personality. Rocco can be a handful at times, but Edward was patient, confident, and made him feel right at home. He kept us updated throughout, which gave us real peace of mind, and it was obvious that Rocco was being well looked after and getting plenty of attention. It's always a bit nerve-wracking leaving your dog with someone new, especially when they're as full-on as Rocco, but Edward made the whole experience easy. I wouldn't hesitate to trust him with Rocco again, and I think anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter would be lucky to have him look after their dog.
Edward is such a conscientious, responsible and trustworthy person when it comes to looking after animals that i honestly believe my dog loves him almost more than she does me. I only have to utter to first syllable of his name and her ears prick up like she’s just been told she’s about to go on a dream holiday. Edward has looked after my Molly on numerous occasions, from a few hours in an afternoon to several days, and I’m incredibly fortune to have had someone like him to rely on. I couldn’t recommend him as a pet sitter and as a person in general more highly.
Absolutely brilliant with dogs. You can tell straight away how much Eddie loves and understands them. Milo (my dog) settled in instantly and came back happy and tired from all the attention and walks. Really reassuring getting updates while he was there too. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to look after their dog.
Eddie looked after our 3 year old Beagle for a week whilst we went on holiday. This was the first time using his services and he went above and beyond for Betsy. Pretty sure she didn’t want to come home. We’ll definitely be using his services again. Thanks Eddie.

Schedule
I work fully remote and I am in the house all day throughout the week. I am able to accommodate very regular toilet breaks and play time. I am very active and can even get a walk in during lunch time, so high energy breeds are suitable! I have social events during weekday evenings but usually no more than 2-3 hours at one time and I am never usually out past 22:30PM during the week. Weekends are usually less routine, sometimes I am out on a Friday or Saturday but very rarely both. I am also rarely out late on a Sunday but often have some plans during the day. This can often include long walks which I would be happy to include your dog. If you want weekend availability, I think this would be better on ad-hoc basis depending on what my plans are on a particular date.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My rear garden is fenced and enclosed with a grass area. I am very flexible in what I can accommodate - your wish is my command! I am very understanding that you want your dog to be treated exactly as you want, so they are more than welcome to sit on furniture, beds, upstairs and downstairs, even car journeys! Like I say, your wish truly is my command. I absolute adore my dog and I truly love and respect all dogs of all kinds. I offer a safe, loving and fun environment whilst putting your pets safety and wellbeing as an absolute number 1 priority.
A typical day
I can keep your dog company all day, letting them relax, play in the garden, say hello to neighbours. There is a large park just down the road that I can walk them. If there is anything in particular that your dog enjoys, just let me know.
