Pet care experience

Pawsome pet care

I’ve loved animals all my life and have experience caring for cats, dogs (including border collies and westies), and rescue pets. I understand every pet is an individual and a valued family member. I also have a friendly westie, Pepper, who gets on well with other dogs. I’m happy to provide regular photo updates and will carefully follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and training routines. I can care for your pet in your home or mine, and I prefer to meet pets beforehand. For everyone’s safety, I only accept vaccinated pets. If staying with me, your pet will enjoy countryside and coastal walks, plenty of attention, and positive reinforcement for any training needs. For boarding, I ask owners to provide their pet’s bed to help them settle in. I offer doggy daycare, home visits, walks, feeding, litter tray cleaning, and overnight pet sitting to help maintain your pet’s usual routine — with adventures included if agreed.

Thank you Gwen for taking such good care of Polly! Gwen made sure Polly and Pepper got on well beforehand, which gave me real peace of mind. She kept in touch throughout the stay with updates on how Polly was getting on, and it was clear Polly was very happy and well cared for. Polly absolutely loved her stay with Gwen, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

This was the third time that Gwen has cared for Marie so they are now used to each other and all goes well. Puss was pleased to see us back and was well fed and happy. Gwen sent me messages and a photo of Marie while we were away to reassure me.

Gwen came before we went away to reacquaint herself with Marie who was pleased to see her again. Gwen also sent me update photos each day so I knew I would find Marie had been well cared for on return.

This was our first time using Cat in a Flat.Gwen came to meet our cat, Marie, twice before we went away and then duly cared for her for a couple of days, also sending us a reassuring `all's well' message. Marie is an older cat with some strange ways now but Gwen cared for her well and will be back in Sept.

Great communication, very conscientious and gave peace of mind that Mia was being well looked after (even if she spent the time in hiding!)

Schedule

I work from home Mon - Fri most of the time but am sometimes out & about. When I am out I can care for your pet in work as I work in the countryside. As a responsible dog carer I won’t let your pet off-lead outside designated pet walking areas
