Safety, trust & environment

General Trust & Home Care: I treat your home with the utmost respect. I ensure all doors are locked and security systems are reset before I leave. You will receive a detailed update after every visit, including photos and a confirmation that your pet is fed, and safe. +When walking your dog, safety is my absolute priority. I perform a 'gear check' before we leave the house to ensure collars and leashes are secure. I stick to familiar, safe routes and am always mindful of the environment—keeping an eye out for other dogs, traffic, or unsafe debris on the sidewalk. I am also happy to follow any specific training commands you use to keep your dog's routine consistent. +For cat visits, I focus on maintaining a low-stress environment. I am extremely careful when entering and exiting to ensure your cat doesn't slip out the door. I respect their space, letting them approach me at their own pace. If your cat requires a special diet or medication, I double-check instructions to ensure feedings are administered exactly as requested.
