Chi- Cosy & Loving Dog Sitting Home in Battersea🐶

Pet care experience

Hi lovely pet parents, We're Chi & Peter, absolute animal lovers, we are locals in Battersea Park/ Battersea Power station. I'm a fashion merchandiser who works from home, I’m a bit of a number geek aka crazy dog lady 🤓 We both grew up with dogs and I've taken care of dogs for many years. In my free time, I like to read, walk and being active, spend time with dogs and constantly say hello to all the lovely dogs I see on the street! 😎 My partner Peter who is also a big dog lover and has been training dogs for the last 8 years, he is a true dog whisperer, he understands dogs behaviours and psychology as part of his own experiences and passion for dogs. We're very patient and reliable so your pet will be in loving hands ❤️ We will make sure they have a safe and happy stay 🐶 Most pets we have hosted settled in really quickly ( normally first 15 mins or so). We love all kinds of dogs and love all different personalities but we're more suitable for dogs that can stay calm inside, this is just to make sure we respect our neighbours in our building. If your lovely dog has high energy and barks quite a lot inside of the house, we can always chat about this before the booking :) We live just opposite Battersea Park where there is plenty of outdoor space- Battersea Park is literally just 1 min away from where we are. This is where we do our daily walks and playdates. We're also very near the riverside around Chelsea Bridge/ Battersea Power station so if your pet loves a bit of riverside walk, We will walk them around the Power Station as they have really nice and safe grassy area where they can roam freely!! We can give them a potty break every 3 hours, 2 decent walks a day, early morning and late afternoon ( approx. 45-60 mins each time depending on your dog's energy level), we will also pop out at lunchtime for potty break/fresh air then late hour 9-10 pm toilet break before bed so they don’t need to hold it for too long so in a nutshell, we will be going out at least 4 times a day, if your dogs prefer more or less, just let us know, we can adjust that as well. The most important thing is when we take your lovely dogs out for a walk, we make sure the walk is all about them so we will take our time and let them sniff and explore freely! Our place is very easy to get to, there is a bus stop just in front of the building. Will take you directly to here or the tube station Battersea Power station is only 6 mins walk away! We live in a cosy home which has decent floor space ( for London size) your pets will have a great space to play around, rest and restore! I know most dogs love to stay on a sofa during the day and sleep with humans on the bed at night so if this is something your pets love to do, I’m very happy for them to jump on the sofa and the bed with us too but happy to keep their routine if they weren’t allowed to go onto the bed at home, will do whatever your pets feel safe and happy as I would love to think they are coming here for a nice holiday 😉! We also have a comfy memory foam dog bed so if your dogs don’t mind sleeping on a different bed, they can use that, we also clean and disinfect the bed and food/water bowls right after the last lovely pup checks out so your lovely pets will have a fresh check-in 🐶🌷 We have a balcony but it’s always closed so it’s really safe! There is also a courtyard in our block so that’s where we will go when we do our late night toilet trip, again really safe! So in a nutshell, if you decide to let your dogs have a nice staycation at mine, they will get good care, lots of cuddles, plenty of exercise, good routines, and a relaxing time! 🧡

Chi was amazing with Yuzu. Yuzu is an anxious girl but she quickly warmed up to Chi which meant we didn't have to worry about her at all. Would definitely recommend and would love for her to look after Yuzu again.

The support from Chi and her partner was super. They are real friends of dogs. We had regular update with messages. On photos we were receiving we saw happy face of our dog. Thanks once again!!!!

Chi was incredibly nice and sent many pictures of the stay. We were very happy to have selected her to take care of Coco.

Don't hesitate for one more second! Book Chi! We were absolutely blown away with the incredibly high level of love and attention Chi gave our Mini Aussie, Winston. We left him with Chi over the Christmas holiday and I was so nervous to leave him for the first time, but Chi was incredibly kind, comforting, and obviously very knowledgeable. Winston is pretty slow to warm up to people generally, but he warmed up to Chi and her partner right away--we were amazed! The entire trip, Chi sent me the most darling photos and videos of Winston. I was so confident that he was happy and having a great time in her care. We will use Chi ALWAYS!! Highly, highly, highly recommend her services!

Information Hsiao Chi H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs and I will let you know if I’m capable of looking after them. I have experience of looking after senior fur babies too. I have experiences of giving them oral meds and brush their teeth if needed. After the booking, I would normally send you a small list of questions (sample as below ) to fill in, so I can get to know your pets better, this is to make sure they will have a safe and happy staycation at my place. Questions - Meal Time preference: How often are they used to go for walk a day and how long do they like? How many hours between each toilet? Can your dog be off the lead and how do they behave off the lead and how well do they listen to the instructions? How long can they be left on their own at home? ( We don’t normally leave dogs more than 1 hour at home but it will be good to know especially for longer boarding doggies, just incase if I need to run errands sometimes and it’s always safer to leave them at home rather than leaving them outside of the shops) How do they act around other dogs and pedestrians? How do they behave indoors with regards to furniture etc and do they stay calm indoors? Any allergies or medical history?

A typical day

Play catch, hide and seek, play toys , talk to them, walk them in the park, listen to dog relaxing music, cuddle them, be there for them. Let me know what your pets like and I will make sure I make your pets feel at home!!
