Personal attention for your dog or cat

Pet care experience

I regularly look after dogs for my neighbour and family - taking them for walks, dog sitting, toilet breaks and more. Also love cats and often have feline visitors to the house. My sister's dogs are rescue dogs from a puppy farm and rescue centre - they are wonderful and it's great to see them coming out of their shells and becoming the dogs they are meant to be. My neighbour's dog is a rescue dog from Romania. I understand how to work with their foibles and make sure they are safe and well taken care of as they each have their own personalities. I am used to looking after single dogs and pairs of dogs and will make sure they get the individual attention that they need.

I would highly recommend Helen to look after all your little doggies' needs. Helen has extensive experience. She has helped with many dogs I have fostered for a local rescue and with rehabilitaing them ready for their forever homes. She immediately forms a close bond, and is very caring and considerate, hence the dogs are always very comfortable with her. One of my own rescue dogs is reactive, the other struggles with his vision and has fits and Helen manages these issues very easily. I would fully trust Helen as a very capable and caring pet lover, and wouldn't hesitate to use her services.

I make sure I get to know the dog and understand its personality as that's so important. Every dog is different so I talk to the owners about what they need. Meet and greets are very important.

Good to know what your dog needs and is used to so that I can ensure that I look after them well for you. Let me know if your dog has any issues with other dogs or children so that we can avoid or manage any difficult situations.

A typical day

Walks in the park, playing in the garden with toys if appropriate for the dog's age, treats for good behaviour and rest time are all an important part of a dog's day.
