Highlights
Pet care experience
Qualified in Animal management. Animal lover!
I have an animal management level three qualification and have many hours experience of in taking care of a wide range of animals. I have also trained as a dog groomer and have had a variety of pets myself. Including dogs, cats, fish and hamsters. My most recent pets have been cats and have dealt mainly with my pet's senior stage of life. This is due to them being rescued. However, I have had experience pet-sitting puppies.

Ratings and reviews
Noah had a great time and was so happy he didnt want to leave. Photo and message updates and easy to organise
Gabriella seems lovely and had a great trial day with our lovely Labrador. Frequent pictures and updates too. Thankyou!
Gabi and her mum were so lovely and welcoming. I had no worries leaving Rowan with them. It sounds like he had a lovely time. Would definitely recommend and would use Gabi again if needed. Thank you!
Gabi did a great job looking after my cat and home. I had regular updates and photos which really help if like me you can be anxious if leaving your pet with someone new. All was well except to begin with Gabi had not seen a message I had sent so unfortunately she turned up when I was not at home . This was the night before to collect the key. Easily done I know . Thank you Gabi.
Gabi was excellent with our dog Max! We got regular updates and pictures which put us at ease while visiting the other end of the country. Gabi reassured us that she’d looked after bigger dogs before and all went really well. Max got to play in the nearby river on hotter days and some needed off lead time in the nearby park to tire him out! Would definitely look to use Gabi again to look after Max the next time we go away 🤩🐶
Gabriella has been looking after my Weimaraner for quite some time now, and he genuinely feels at home with her. He’s a big dog and can be emotionally challenging at times, but Gabriella is incredibly patient, playful, and understanding with him. She’s done an amazing job building his confidence, and he’s now even able to enjoy walks too. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced-in garden, so they can safely enjoy the outdoors in a secure environment. I always stay with them and never leave them unattended.
A typical day
When dog sitting, I like to start by spending some time getting to know each other and making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable with me. Once they’re ready, we’ll head out for a nice walk to explore the area. There will be plenty of time for sniffing, stretching their legs, and enjoying the sights and smells! We’ll stop for a pee and play break at the Tiffey, and if they’re feeling adventurous, maybe even a little splash in the river. After our outdoor fun, we’ll head back home to relax, enjoy some quiet time together, and stick to their usual routine for meals, cuddles, and rest. My aim is always to keep their day as happy and familiar as possible.

- Before looking after your pet, I love to learn as much as I can about them to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable with me. It's helpful to know things like their daily routine, any special needs, how they are on walks, their favorite toys or treats, and anything they might be nervous about. Understanding their personality such as whether they're playful, shy, energetic, or a cuddle bug. This helps me tailor the care to suit them.
