Flexible and experienced; will cater to you!
Pet care experience
I'm really flexible to cater to your busy lives and having grown up with dogs all my life, I've a tonne of experience, especially with large dogs but obviously love caring for all breeds; walking, bathing, feeding and of course lots of attention and playtime :) Although I don't currently own any pets, I've been around animals all my life and often take care of my parents 2 Boxers who up until a few years ago I lived with full time and now take overnight when my folks need a break. Because of my line of work and travel I've never been able to commit to owning my own dog full time so this is the perfect opportunity to pass on my passion for dogs to others in need. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pets in somebody else's hands which is why I'll take every effort to make both you and your pets as comfortable as possible.
Reviews
Absolutely amazing my working breed Belgian Mali had such an amazing time I highly appreciate the love and care she had for my dog definitely going to be sticking with her and using her again honestly the best
Gemma has helped me loads over the years with my dogs. My dogs love her and I feel very comfortable leaving them with her. I use her whenever I need a dog sitter or walker in Birmingham.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I've a very large ground floor apartment in a big Georgian house in Hagley, so plenty of space and with a fenced back garden for your pups to use. I also live very close to lots of dog friendly walking trails and fields, perfect for all dogs big and small. My home will be your dogs home from home :) If caring for pets in your home, I'll happily be guided by you as to how you typically take care of your pets / schedules etc. and follow your lead.
Home
Information Gemma D. would like to know about your pet
Any medication or allergies of course :) Also, we all know that each pet has their own set of quirks and characteristics so would love to know more about your dogs personality ; likes, dislikes, any triggers etc.
A typical day
Waking up is breakfast time together followed by an outdoor walk tailored do your dogs needs. I'm very used to walking big dogs as well as smaller breeds so whether it's an hour letting off steam or a stroll in the back field, I'm sure we'll have fun! I love being playful and think it's really important to keep pets, especially those with high energy, stimulated so there'll be lots of playtime and love and care. I'm also happy to have pets on my sofa with me once they're tired out for cuddles.

I'm currently in between careers as a management consultant and so I've a lot of spare time, which I'd love to use helping dog owners who are time poor with busy schedules. I can be super flexible to meet your needs.
