Information Holly L. would like to know about your pet

Any details about their routines, preferences, or special needs are always helpful so I can make their time with me as safe, comfortable, and enjoyable as possible. If possible and able please try make sure your dog is clean and fresh before visiting, so we can both enjoy the time together however more than happy to help with this if needed. I’m happy to accommodate—just let me know how I can best support your pet.

A typical day

We’ll enjoy walks along the river, through the woods, and in the park, as well as adventurous hikes in and around Derby. I love keeping dogs active and entertained with games like fetch, tug-of-war, and any of their other favourites. After playtime, we can settle in for cosy cuddles on the couch—sometimes with a well-earned treat! You’ll also receive regular photo updates so you can share in the fun and see your pet happy and thriving.

Loving Pet Care for Every Breed & Personality

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities from a young age, regularly being trusted by family and friends to feed, walk, play with, and provide loving companionship for their pets. I’m an active person, so I can happily match your dog’s energy—whether that’s long walks, playful games, or gentle strolls. Your dog will be treated with the same care, attention, and affection I’d give my own, and you’ll receive plenty of photo updates so you can feel confident they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away.

Holly was brilliant again! Our boys love her - she is super flexible and was able to shuffle her own schedule to help us out last minute. We completely trust her with our home, chickens and plants! Will be booking again for sure.

Holly had our dogs for us for a 24 hour period we couldnt cover at such last minute. She was absolutely fantastic and I cannot thank her enough. We have two large dogs who each have their own 'problems' and we have been turned down a lot in the past. Holly was amazing with them both, sent lots of updates and pictures and was trusted so much by our huskita, we got a picture of her having belly rubs lay across Holly's leg, which means she was completely relaxed and trusted Holly. Thank you so much for having them both and we would definitely use you again!

We re-booked Holly following a successful first House sitting with our dog Jasmine. Holly kindly sent photos during the stay which are always lovely to receive as we can see Jasmine is very comfortable with Holly around. We always come home to a happy doggo. Will continue to book Holly for future dog sitting needs.
