🏡Home From Home For Your Fur Baby
Give Your Pet the Next Best Thing to Your Love And Let Us Care for Them Like Family! 🥰 Fully insured and DBS checked. I'm a lifelong pet owner who grew up with a cat and four terriers, three of whom were born at home and remained with us throughout their lives. My partner also grew up around dogs and we have our own little Bichon, a very placid 14 year old called Elsie. Dogs are part of the family and I never hesitate to take them everywhere I can, be it a yomp on the Heath, a cemetary stroll, a canal run or a pipe and slippers afternoon in my local, nursing a pint and wrestling with the Sunday supplements. I'm a full member on the Rover site and have walked and boarded dog’s regularly for over ten years. I am fully DBS, (police) checked, and I have access to veterinary support via Rover. I also have certified Pet First Aid training provided by an accredited award winning company. In my spare time I volunteer for the Cinnamon Trust, a UK charity that supports elderly and terminally ill people with their pets, so I also regularly walk dogs for local beneficiaries near me. I enjoy photography and would be happy to take a few 'pawtraits' and send videos whilst looking after your family member. I’m keen to adhere to any social rules you have with your dog such as ‘not jumping up’, sitting for treats, walking well on the lead and can help with any training in these areas. 🐾

Ratings and reviews
The absolute best. I have a lot of anxiety around leaving Duke for stays outside the home, and Frederica and her partner could not have been a better match. They were extremely communicative, sent endless photos and videos, and I could tell immediately upon drop-off that he was in the best hands.
Frederica was absolutely fantastic! Her communication was excellent, and she was incredibly accommodating throughout the whole process. She even arranged to meet us before the boarding date so she could get to know the dog, which really put our minds at ease. She kept me updated throughout his stay with regular messages, and the handover was quick, smooth, and easy. Frederica is truly a safe pair of hands, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Thank you so much! ❤️
I cannot speak highly enough of Fred and her partner Seth. They provide wonderful care that is professional and loving. We left our senior Cockerpoo for a week she has diabetes and poor eyesight so I was naturally concerned about finding the right sitter. Fred was amazing from start to finish she looked after Rosie so well giving twice daily injections and keeping us updated on how she was doing. Rosie even had a pamper session and tons of cuddles and belly rubs. Fred is a real professional sitter and from the first meet I knew Rosie was going to be in good hands. Fred and I had a meet up and then Rosie had a one day stay so she was familiar with where she was going to stay. This was so reassuring for me and really well organised. Fred was excellent at communication and always responded to any question by return. Every picture I had of Rosie she was smiling. Fred made sure Rosie’s stay was a really rich experience even introducing her to new toys that she could enjoy despite her impaired vision. On the last day Fred and Seth were wonderful with the handover meeting us on the way back from the airport. If you are looking for a loving professional stimulating experience for your little one Fred is the sitter for you. A huge thank you both for looking after Rosie so well.
Frederica makes your mind feel completely at ease when she is looking after your pet. They are given 5-star treatment and she keeps you updated on all the fun things they get up to. Highly recommend!
100/10 - my dog didn’t just get basic small walks, he got whole days out, was safely and slowly introduced to other dogs, and I just noticed a return tag they put on his collar for his safety too. Can’t recommend enough, kind, obviously dog loving people with wonderful photos of my happy dog too - will be back!
Amazing communication and loads of pictures 😁

Schedule
We work from home so can accommodate various day care and boarding requirements. I am happy to discuss any particular requirements you may have for your pet.

Safety, trust & environment
We can provide pick up and drop off, so wherever you are in London, we can accommodate. We have two properties and live between both; a flat with a large fenced garden in Islington and a house in Walthamstow with a 100ft fenced garden. Our Islington pad is close to Finsbury Park, Highgate Woods, Hampstead Heath and Regents Park, and the Walthamstow house is walking distance to Epping Forest, so there are plenty of opportunities for exercise, play and long walks with your pet.

A typical day
Lots of exercise and play is what I believe most dogs crave. I love to do energetic rambles and long hikes, but happy to provide more leisurely walks, sniffing about and playing games if that’s the preference of your furry.
