Pet care experience
A trusted companion for your four legged-friend
Hi there, I’m Emily, a professional dog walker and pet sitter based in London. Since moving here 3 years ago I've been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From lively Cockapoos and gentle Labradors to shy rescue pups, playful Dachshund puppies and anxious dogs that need a little more space and time. I find this work truly joyous and have had the pleasure of meeting a huge range of dogs, each one totally unique. I usually work with a maximum of two dogs at a time, dependent on compatibility, when it comes to walking. As much as I love being surrounded by dogs, I find keeping numbers low means I can give each dog the attention they deserve and tailor walks to suit their individual pace, needs, and energy levels. I also offer solo walks for dogs who need a bit of extra one-on-one time, whether they’re building confidence, need space, or just prefer their own company. That said, I know every dog and situation is different, so if you’re unsure, just drop me a message! I’m always happy to chat and see what works best. Additionally I've looked after lots of dogs that also live with cats too! Happy to provide doggy daycare in your home, select house sitting even if you don't require the overnight stay and we can discuss timings! I grew up on a farm where there were always dogs around, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’m also a self-employed actor, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your dog’s care. This work has allowed me to meet so many incredible dogs and just as importantly, their wonderful owners. I’m excited to keep building those connections and growing an even bigger trusted client base. I treat every dog like they are my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your four legged friend soon!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for your dog in their own home, my top priorities are their safety, comfort, and happiness. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible from feeding times and walks to playtime and rest to help them feel settled and secure. I take the time to get to know their personality, likes and dislikes, and any specific needs they may have, whether that’s medication, training reinforcement, or just a bit of extra reassurance. I make sure their environment stays safe and calm, keeping a close eye on their wellbeing at all times. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in caring, capable hands while you’re away.

Schedule
I'm a self employed professional actor, therefore I can easily fit pet care and drop ins into my weekly/daily routine. This means my full attention will be on your dog and ensuring they are entertained.
- Cats0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgEmily can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
- Let me know of any special requirements your dog may have e.g medication or dietary requirements ahead of time and I will ensure I'm prepared. Also it’s great to know anything your dog is reactive to e.g squirrels or pigeons or anything that makes them nervous. In addition to this if there is anything in terms of training that you're trying to master, just let me know and I'll ensure I work on this with them too!
