Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, reliable and genuine!
I have worked with dogs professionally in various roles for the past 5 years, and have owned and fostered dogs and cats for 10+ years. I have experience with a huge variety of breeds, ages, temperaments, sizes and characters, including nervous and reactive dogs. I hold a diploma in Pet Psychology, meaning I have a very good knowledge and understanding of canine and feline behaviour. Having a deep understanding of your pet’s needs and behaviours is at the heart of what I do. I am qualified in Canine First Aid and am experienced and confident in providing care to dogs with various medical conditions - such as Diabetes, Heart Conditions, Arthritis, and other issues. I am also fully insured.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Harriet was amazing with Teddy, they went out on loads of walks and really accommodated his needs within his energy levels and comfort. I would highly recommend and would feel very comfortable with Teddy staying with her again!
Harriet was brilliant to say she would spend the day looking after our very excitable rescue border collie with separation anxiety. She arranged an initial meeting with him and we were able to talk through his issues and routines. Harriet was very kind, patient and caring. She listened and followed all our instructions and kept in touch for updates. They had a lovely day together. We would fully recommend Harriet to as a dog sitter and we will be using her again.
Hatty was amazing, super friendly and so easy going. She looked after our little Teo and he absolutely loved her, loads of picture updates and he was definitely spoilt
Harriet was amazing looking after our lurcher Frankie (who suffers from separation anxiety). She put our minds at ease right away, so we could relax knowing Frankie was in good hands. We’ll definitely ask Harriet to dog sit again! 5 stars!
We’d never left our dog with anyone before, so we were naturally quite nervous, but Hatty made us feel totally at ease from the very beginning. She was super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly experienced. She asked all the right questions and really took the time to get to know our dog. While we were away, she sent us regular updates and photos, which made such a difference. It was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed our dog was—we could tell she was being really well looked after. It’s very clear how much she loves dogs and she really went above and beyond to give our dog her own holiday while we were on ours! When we got home, our dog was calm and content, and everything at the house was just as we left it. You can tell Hatty genuinely cares. We’ve already said we’ll be booking her again next time
Hatty is really caring and patient with the pets in her care, and has lots of experience with pets both in their homes and out and about!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I primarily offer sitting, in your dogs own home. A lot of dogs and owners prefer this as your dog gets to stay in their routine and in the comfort of their own home. I live in a flat with a shared garden so I only take boarding bookings for dogs who would be happy and comfortable in this environment. I also have a cat at home so any boarding customers need to be cat friendly.
