Qualified & genuine care - Your dog's best friend
Pet care experience
My name is Frankie and dogs are my happy place! I have been working in a variety of dog care settings over the past 7 years – doggy day cares, training schools, rescue centres, pet sitting & boarding. Alongside offering my dog care services on Rover, I work part-time as a dog trainer for one of the biggest Dog Charities in the UK. I also regularly dog sit for friends and family. Having worked as a canine carer in rescue centres, I am familiar with following lots of dogs' different routines. Feeding, grooming, bathing, applying topical medications and setting up different types of sensory enrichments. I am confident around pooches of all ages, temperaments and sizes. If you have a nervous or reactive dog, feel free to message me and I will provide support so that your pooch can have the best time walking/staying with me. 🏞️🏡🦮 My qualifications include: Canine First Aid Trained Masterclass in Dog Socialization & Obedience Dog Behaviour & Training Essentials ABC obedience & Learning theory I am also working towards my assessment to become a fully fledged member of the UK APDT (Associations of Professional Dog Trainers). Feel free to message me for any questions. I look forward to welcoming your pooch onboard!
Reviews
Frankie was excellent with Dudley - very communicative ahead of the booking, and reliable, turning up slightly ahead of time so that her gorgeous dog Lenny could meet Dudley before coming into the house for the evening. Frankie sent lots of updates throughout the evening - which I really appreciated as it was the first time I'd used a dog sitter and Dudley can be quite nervous. By the end of the evening they were snuggled on the sofa together, which is better than I could've hoped for! Thanks so much Frankie!
Frankie looked after my dachshund (also Frankie) for me for a few days. She was absolutely fantastic providing me with updates and photos as to how Frankie was doing. Would more than happily use her again next time I go away.
Francesca was fantastic could not of asked for more, Great communication and looked after our dog like her own lots of walks and activities, will definitely be using again next time we go away. Can’t thank you enough x
Mylo had a lovely time with Francesca. He came home a happy dog And Francesca kept us update throughout his stay We will definitely be using her again

My flat is fairly small, so can accommodate a maximum of 2 small dogs or 1 bigger dog. I do not have garden access but I regularly take my dog (and guests) out to the nearby parks around my area. Since I spend so much time WFH I am more than happy and keen to go out for a stroll as often as I can! I also have a car to take your pooch on adventures by the beach or in the woodlands - your choice! Your pet will have safe access to the whole of my home - just like my dog does! I am okay with pets on furniture and I do often make home made meals for the dogs in my care - your pooch will hopefully feel like a guest of honour. I also have a dog camera to monitor dogs in case i need to nip out. I have crates, spare beds and bowls, as well as countless amounts of Liki mats, Kongs, toys and a selection of beds! If you would like me to look after your pet in your own home - I am happy to follow your routine and will be attentive to your pet's needs as if it were family.

A typical day
The dogs I look after will get plenty of exercise as well as sensory enrichment - from scent games to work to eat puzzles! There are amazing walks surrounding my area - from beaches to woodlands, there is something for everyone! Cuddles are welcome for all dogs who enjoy them, we can even brush up on some training if you like :)

Availability
Since I am working part-time as a dog trainer, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pooches, as my work only keeps me busy for a few hours 3/4 days or so a week. I do lots of admin work and online classes from home, so chances are your doggies could be a lovely addition to my home office. I am available for boarding during the week or weekends and can work around your schedule. I also have a little, older dog called Lenny that loves a bit of doggy company! They will get plenty of 121 time, cuddles and walks during the day. If you'd like your dog to learn a few tricks, just ask :)
