Caring for your dog as if they were my own.
Pet care experience
Very friendly and loving professional for dog & house sitting in London. Caring for animals is a genuine passion of mine. As a child, I spent weekends at the local dogs and cats home, giving all the love and affection a child could offer, and growing up, I spent a lot of time training and playing with our beloved family dog, Millie, who was my best friend for a (rather admirable) 17 years! I have a lot of experience with dogs, having used similar apps (Rover, BorrowMyDoggy) and volunteering to help vulnerable people with their pets through The Cinnamon Trust. I work from home most days (Marketing), in an apartment with a garden that I share with my partner in New Cross. My partner has a car so we can even go further afield on a weekend (of course, only with your permission) and we're both very active, enjoying both long and short walks evenings and weekends. It's natural for pets to feel unsettled in a new home, so I am more than happy to come to you. I have provided house-sitting services and will ensure you feel that both your home and your pets are safe and well looked after whilst you're away, with regular updates and photos. I also understand it can be daunting leaving your furry loved one with someone new, so I’m more than happy to meet beforehand or answer any questions you have to ensure you feel totally relaxed with the situation. Unfortunately, I am unable to have cats in my flat. I work from home Mondays and Fridays, so can help between Thursday evening and Monday (weekend included). I'm able to provide walks every couple of hours and toilet breaks whenever. I look forward to hearing from you! :-)
Reviews
Holly was lovely!!! She arrived right on time and my dog was immediately at ease with her despite it being the first time they had met. She sat for us for an evening and sent us a little update half way through to let us know everything was alright.
Holly met up with us in advance and wanted to learn a bit about our pup. She was easy to communicate with and looked after him well, he was happy when we picked him up :)
Perfect, friendly. You know it's good by the waggy tails when you drop them off.
This was our first time using a dog sitter but Holly made our experience very easy indeed. She was very communicative, beforehand and during our time away, and reassured us that she knew what she was doing. We even got a photo of Lottie which was a nice plus. Lottie seems to have had the best time with Holly and we’d definitely recommend her to others.

I live on a fairly quiet road (not a main road) with 2 front doors and a garden. They will have free roam around my whole apartment and I'm fine with them chilling on the sofa :-) (cushions and throws galore!) - if this is a habit you'd rather avoid just let me know.
Home
Information Holly K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special requirements or needs, including health-related issues. In addition, recall abilities and whether they can be off the lead - my preference is to always keep on a lead. It would also be useful to know if they bark a lot if they are staying here with me as there is an older couple living above who don't like too much noise.
A typical day
Throughout the day I'm committed to ensure your pet is mentally stimulated and feels calm and relaxed with me. I have a garden and have plenty of areas and parks nearby to explore.

I work from home and can be fairly flexible with walking (providing I don't have any meetings). I can take outside for the toilet as much as need be.
