Availability

I work from home full time, so I’m always at home Monday-Friday. My work is very flexible and I’m often out walking at lunch time and in the evenings. I do live in a small flat however I have a balcony and our flats have a private enclosed garden area for toilet duties. I live with my partner, no children/ flat mates/ family members so no worries there. When boarding a dog, I usually go for a longer morning walk, a shorter trip to the meadow during my lunch break, and another longer walk in the evening when I’ve finished work, and one final toilet trip before bed. I am very happy to adjust this routine to accommodate your dogs needs, whether that’s shorter walk, more toilet breaks and so on!

A typical day

Living near the Kelvin walkway and multiple green areas means constant walks and adventures for your pup! As I work from home full time, I enjoy breaks away from the desk to play When dogs are boarding, I like to take them on a morning walk, to the park during lunch, and a longer evening walk, before a final trip to the garden before bed time. This is of course fully dependant on the dog itself, and I would adjust walk times to suit mobility issues, or increase garden visits if toilet breaks are needed more frequently. Please do let me know what is suitable for your pooch :)

Remote worker missing my family dog

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs my entire life. We got my first pet, Pippin when I was just a baby- she lived until I was 17! Then at 18 we got another pup, Biscuit- who is now 11 and still living in the family home in Ireland. I'm not yet in a position to have my own pup due to my regular travel to and from Ireland, however I love dogs and the company they provide- especially as I work fully remote and can be alone a lot. In the past I've regularly been a pet sitter for family and friends- not just dogs, cats and even a rabbit too! I have been on Rover for a while now and have welcomed over 20 dogs into my small flat! From a set of lively Spaniel brothers, an elderly Dachshund with mobility issues, to intelligent and loving Labradors and nervous Doodles- I've had them all and I'm happy to keep meeting more and more :)

Holly sent regular updates and Sammy seemed to settle in so quickly! He’s been so relaxed and I’m sure he had such a lovely time- thank you so much!

Holly looked after my dachshund Buddy for 2 nights while I was away and he had the best time! She was very good at communicating with me and sending me pictures of Buddy. I would highly recommend Holly with watching your dog, they will be in safe hands! X
