Pet care experience

Your favourite Dog sitter in SW London 😀

I’ve been looking after dogs for over 15 years, from tiny puppies full of energy to gentle senior dogs who need extra care and patience. I’m also a certified dog trainer and dog walker, so I can handle all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m very attentive, patient, and caring, and I’ll always treat your pup like part of my own family. Whether it’s playtime, training, or just lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾

Francini is absolutely lovely, highly highly recommend. My husband and I were abroad for a wedding and I was very nervous to leave Twiggy as it was our first time away from him. Francini sent loads of photos and updates every day which made me feel very comfortable, and he came back looking very happy and well cared for. Will definitely use in the future!!

Great sitter, Francini took great care of my dog Winnie whilst I was away on holiday. It is clear she loves dogs, and Winnie loved her stay. Would recommend and rebook.

Francini looked after Enya so well, she looked so happy in the updates and had a great day together! She was so easy to talk to and considerate of Enyas needs

Francine was absolutely amazing with my dog. She is incredibly sweet, caring, and clearly very knowledgeable about dogs. My dog is quite particular and has his own little quirks and routines, but he took to Francine straight away and absolutely loved her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. I could tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after and takes the time to understand their individual personalities and needs. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with her again and will definitely be booking with her in the future. Highly recommended!

Schedule

I work from home all week, so pets are never left alone and get plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I have my own place, dogs are always welcome, and I can easily fit playtime, walks, and cuddles into my daily routine. 🐶💛

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are always under supervision. I have a safe balcony and access to a communal garden for fresh air and playtime plus Battersea park is just around the corner. I make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and loved as if they were my own. I can also administer medications if needed, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, happy, and entertained! We’ll go for fun walks in the park, play fetch and tug-of-war, and even enjoy little brain games to keep them sharp. If they’re more into calm vibes, I’m just as happy to give them cuddles, belly rubs, or quiet time on the sofa. Whether it’s exploring outside or cozying up at home, I make sure each pet gets the perfect mix of exercise, play, and affection tailored to their personality.

It’s really helpful to know if your pet has any medical conditions, needs medication, or has specific routines. I’d also like to know about their behaviour — for example, how they get along with other dogs, if they have any fears, or special quirks. This way, I can make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for exactly the way they need.
