animal lover, works from home, has a cat
Pet care experience
I’ve grown up around a range of animals including cats, dogs, hamsters and horses. I frequently look after my friends dogs if they go away, and my family dog who lives with my mam now I’ve moved out still regularly comes to stay with me when I can pry her away!
Reviews
Mya loved her stay with Eleanor, settled in so well without a care in the world. We visited Eleanor's home prior to make sure it was the right choice. Eleanor kept me up to date with photos and I look forward to using her again in the future.
Eleanor was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She showed real compassion for Della and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again or recommend her to other dog owners.
Bernie loved his time with Elle. He instantly made himself at home and it made me so comfortable leaving him. Elle was really flexible with arrangements and she kept me up-to-date with how Bernie was getting on. Will definitely leave Bernie in Elle’s capable hands again. Thank you so much!
Met with Ellie before and she was at ease and extremely happy with her. Plenty of photos. Kept us up to date. Understood amber and felt comfortable leaving her.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure back yard and am in most of the day to spend with pets to keep them company. I have a cat who is very used to dogs and tends to keep out the way but loves to come cuddle on my knee while i work. I have dog toys at my home anyway, so you wouldn’t even need to bring your own if you didn’t want to!
Home
Information Eleanor P. would like to know about your pet
- okay with cats? Willow is used to dogs so i’m looking for any aggressive behaviours as a red flag, such as growling/snarling. Most dogs are just curious and with careful introduction will be fine - I can look after older puppies but only if they’re toilet trained (this can sometimes take longer to do in other homes even if the puppy is trained in your home)
A typical day
I am used to collie quirks so playing with a toy while working was standard in my household growing up. I am just down the street from saltwell park so whether you have a dog that needs a lead walk and lots of sniffing or a run around off lead, there’s something for every dog.

Availability
I work from home through the week and my weekends are very flexible. Occasionally i have to go into the office, probably once every couple of weeks for a few hours, but this is flexible. I work between 9-5 monday to friday, so am free to go on long walks after this, but can play and keep your dog company during the day and a wander around saltwell park on my lunch break!
