Highlights
Pet care experience
Active, Caring Pet Sitters – Walks, Play, and TLC!
Hi, we’re Jo and Gabriel, a couple of pet lovers who are passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends! I (Jo) have been walking my neighbour’s dog regularly and frequently pet-sit for my friends, while Gabriel grew up with family pets, so we both have lots of experience with animals. We’re super active and love getting outside, so if your dog needs long walks or extra exercise, we’re more than happy to provide it! Whether it’s an energetic walk, a fun adventure, or just some quiet time at home, we’re here to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. We’re also the type of people who can’t resist stopping to say hello to every dog we meet on holidays, at parks, or around the neighbourhood – we truly enjoy connecting with animals. We take the time to get to know each pet’s unique routine and needs, ensuring they’re always comfortable and well-cared for. You can trust us to treat your dog like one of our own, offering plenty of attention, affection, and reliable care. We can’t wait to meet your pup and provide them with all the love they deserve while you’re away! Any questions, please feel free to ask!

Schedule
Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine as we both work from home and have flexible working hours. This means we can easily adjust our schedules to accommodate walks, playtime, and other activities with your pet. Whether it's a morning walk, midday play session, or evening cuddle time, we’re always available to ensure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. Our flexible work setup allows us to provide consistent, reliable care without compromising on quality time spent with your furry friend.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
At our home, we have a fenced garden that’s securely enclosed, providing a safe and private space for pets to enjoy some outdoor time. We live in a spacious one-bedroom terrace with a large living room that has plenty of room for a crate, and wood floors in case of any accidents. We’ll make sure to spend plenty of time outside on walks and adventures, ensuring your pet gets all the exercise and fresh air they need. If we’re looking after your pet in your home, we’ll stick to their routine and create a comfortable, loving environment. Whether at our place or yours, we’ll provide plenty of attention, regular walks, and a caring atmosphere, so your pet feels happy, safe, and well looked after.

A typical day
I love engaging in a variety of fun activities with dogs to keep them active and entertained. Whether it's playing fetch, hiking, or exploring agility courses, I ensure they get plenty of exercise. I also enjoy training new tricks, playing tug-of-war, and offering lots of cuddle time. Every dog is different, so I tailor activities to match their energy level and preferences to keep them happy and healthy while in my care.
