Animal lover, what more can I say

Pet care experience

I have cared for pets for over 10 years and have loved every second. I can assure you, your pet will be in safe and loving care with me. I donate to animal charities monthly as my family has always owned rescue pups and they have a special place in my heart, they deserve the world and more. I found rover through a friend and couldn't think of a more enjoyable way to get a bit of extra money to pay the bills as I am a recently graduated Leeds alumni. I would be so grateful for the opportunity to spend time with animals. So whether it's cats, rabbits, dogs, guinea pigs or even hamsters, I'm your girl!

Fergus loved his stay with Isla. She took such good care of him - it really put our minds at rest! He enjoyed lots of lovely walks and lots of love and attention. We received regular updates whilst we were away which was lovely! I would have no hesitation recommending Isla.

Thank you for taking exceptional care of Buzz while I was on holiday. Your love for animals was evident from the start, and your professionalism and attention to detail were impressive. The regular updates and photos brought me peace of mind, and it was clear that my dog received plenty of love and attention. Your responsiveness and flexibility were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend your services as a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you for making my vacation worry-free. You’re PAWSOME!

Safety, trust & environment

I live opposite a big field which is a very popular spot for dog walking and perfect for taking out your pet when they need to go potty. I live with my boyfriend who also loves animals, so your pet will be constantly surrounded with love! There are a few steps in my flat, but as long as your pet doesn’t mind walking (or being carried) up and down them, then it shouldn’t be an issue.

Information Isla B. would like to know about your pet

As I am working as well as caring for your pet, it is important to me that a dog is able to sleep through the night without interruption. The odd huff here and there is not a problem, but if a dog needs to be taken out during the night or has any sleeping habits ( e.g. snoring) that may keep myself and my boyfriend awake, then it is probably not the best decision for us to have them.

A typical day

I live right next to a very popular park which I know all dogs would love. On the weekend I usually go to Jesmond Dene as it’s one of my favourite walks and would provide some variety so your pet would never get bored. I love playing fetch and having a run around, it’s very important to me to get as much exercise in as possible, which I’m sure is the same for your pet!

I currently work from home, so I am able to provide 3 walks a day and 24/7 cuddles! I work Monday - Friday 9-5 and my weekend schedule is entirely flexible, so if your pet doesn’t like to be left alone at all they won’t have to be. As long as they don’t mind walking with me to get a coffee!
