Lots of love & cuddles to give your fluffy friend

I always wanted a dog, but myself partner and I were both at the time shift workers so couldn’t have our own, we joined borrow my doggie and met some lovely new furry and human friends, fast forward 3 years and circumstances changed so we have Sophia, a mix breed rescue dog from Romania, she’s 8 years old and my whole world (don’t tell hubby) I taking her on adventures to the beach, forest or local walks, we have lots of lovely walks near us which we’ve discovered since adopting her. I love walking and trying to keep fit, and thought this was an excellent opportunity to help others at the same time. Sophia is not great at sharing so unfortunately I can’t offer boarding in my home, but am happy to do pop in visits ot walks from yours, and can also do sitting in your home when my partner is off to be with Sophia. I work full time from home but am flexible with days and hours and would be happy to answer any questions you may have and meet you and your fur baby

Joanne was a great House sitter for our greyhound. She arrived on time, took Willow out for a bonus walk and followed all our instructions to a tee. She also let us know how she was doing. I will definitely be reaching out again

Thank you so much Joanne for the great care you have given Duke and also all the reassuring updates. He was obviously very chilled out in your company!

My dog (Ralph) can be a bit anxious and usually takes time to warm up to new people, but Joanne was incredibly patient and won him over quickly. ​It was a huge relief knowing that Ralph was in such capable hands, especially since he has never been left with a sitter. I was able to relax knowing he is being taken care of and his routine is not completely disturbed. ​On top of the amazing pet care, Joanne was respectful of our space and communicated regularly with updates on how Ralph is doing. I will absolutely be booking again! Thank you so much 😊🐾
