I grew up with plenty of pets in the family, and have long been responsible for the well-being of my own pets as well as those belonging to family and neighbours. Over the past few years, I have also gained a lot of pet care experience through both Borrow My Doggy and Rover, walking and sitting various breeds including golden retrievers, Vizslas (who I have also dog/house sat a few times for ~ 5 days), Daschunds, a Belgian Shepherd and many others. I’ll always make sure your dog receives the best care, attention, and affection they deserve - whether it's daily walks, pet sitting, or more relaxed care! During the week I am happy to take dogs out on lunchtime walks or in the evening, and on weekends my boyfriend (also a dog lover and owner of Caucasian Shepherds though they aren’t in London) and I enjoy longer walks around Hampstead Heath (with plenty of pond options if your dog likes swimming!). I would also be able to do house sitting / pet sitting for a week or so. When caring for a pet, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment. I follow the owner's instructions closely, maintaining the pet's routine for feeding, exercise, and playtime. I also provide plenty of affection and attention, keeping the pet engaged and happy. I like to give regular updates and keep communication. My goal is to ensure the pet feels loved and cared for, just as they would when their owner is home! I also pride myself on my manners and being considerate, especially in someone else’s home.
