My partner and I both work from home full-time, Monday to Friday, which allows us to integrate pet care seamlessly into our daily routine. We have the flexibility to provide attention and care throughout the day, ensuring pets are never left alone for extended periods. We take our dog for a walk every evening after work, making sure they get ample exercise and fresh air. Weekends are usually spent at home, giving us even more time to focus on pet care and engage in activities that keep pets happy and healthy. Our work-from-home lifestyle and regular schedule allow us to be highly attentive and responsive to the needs of any pets in our care, providing a stable and loving environment.

Safety, trust & environment

In My Home: I provide a safe and nurturing environment for pets in my home. We have a large, fully enclosed back garden with both grassy and concrete areas, allowing dogs to play and explore safely. There is a sheltered section outside, ensuring pets can still enjoy outdoor time even in bad weather. Inside, our home is designed to be pet-friendly with a largely open-plan layout. Dogs have access to all areas throughout the day, including our offices, so they are always part of the family. This setup allows for continuous supervision and interaction, ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable. In a Pet Owner's Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to reduce stress and provide a sense of familiarity. I ensure their environment is safe, clean, and comfortable, following any specific instructions provided by the pet owner. My experience and attentive approach help build trust and ensure pets receive the highest quality care, whether they are in my home or their own.

Information James L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or requirements in advance. This includes: Medications: Any specific medications they need, along with dosage and administration instructions. Meal Timings: Their usual feeding schedule and any dietary restrictions. Exercise: The typical duration and type of exercise they require. Treats: Whether they are allowed to have treats and any preferences or restrictions. Personality: A fun fact about their personality to help me understand their unique character and preferences. This information ensures I can provide the best possible care tailored to your pet's needs.

A typical day

A typical day for pets in my care is filled with engaging and enjoyable activities to keep them happy and stimulated. Morning: While I am working, the dogs have access to our spacious, fully enclosed garden for playtime and exercise. They can enjoy the outdoor space and explore safely throughout the day. Afternoon: Once I finish work, we head out for our daily walk. Living near both the beach and a nature reserve, we take advantage of these beautiful surroundings. Dogs can explore the sandy shores or the trails of the nature reserve, providing them with a variety of new scents and sights. Evening: Back at home, we set up our basic dog agility equipment in the garden during the summer. This provides a fun and challenging way for dogs to exercise and build their confidence. We also incorporate training sessions with plenty of treats and toys for mental stimulation. These sessions are designed to be fun and rewarding, helping to reinforce good behaviour and keep the dogs engaged. Throughout the Day: Our home is filled with various toys to keep dogs entertained, and we ensure they receive plenty of attention and affection. The open-plan layout of our house allows dogs to roam freely and be part of the family, ensuring they never feel isolated. By combining physical exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of love, we create a joyful and enriching environment for every pet in our care.

Your Dog's New Sidekick: Tail-Wagging Care!

Pet care experience

Discounts available for repeat bookings. If you require dog care on short notice, please contact me, as I may be able to adjust my availability to suit you! I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life, growing up in a household that always had at least one furry friend. Over the past 15 years, I have extended my love for dogs beyond my own home by taking care of dogs for friends and relatives. This experience has allowed me to develop a better understanding of canine behaviour and care. I have worked with a wide variety of breeds, from small to large, and am well-versed in the unique needs and characteristics of each. Special Skills: Puppy Training: I have hands-on experience with training puppies, from basic commands and housebreaking to socialization techniques. I understand the patience and consistency required to help young dogs develop good habits and become well-adjusted adults. Senior Dog Care: Caring for older dogs requires special attention and compassion. I am experienced in managing the health and comfort of senior dogs, including administering medications, accommodating mobility issues, and providing a calm and soothing environment. My lifelong passion for dogs and extensive experience in caring for them make me a reliable and compassionate pet sitter who can be trusted with your beloved pets.
