Veterinary experience loving sitter

I have worked as a veterinary receptionist for over 7 years. So have met all sorts of characters through the years. Previously volunteered with The Dogs Trust. I have had my own dogs and looked after friends and families all my life. Sadly my gorgeous 17 year old boarder terrier cross passed away earlier this year, so currently no dogs at home. I live close to a park and the woods for walkies. We have a secure garden and a loving home to give your dog the best experience while you’re away. Daily updates so you can check in. Mon &Tue I work so limited times at home, so please ask. Other days at home.

Jo is amazing with my Golden Retriever, she is so caring + treats him like her own. She's very reliable + I completely trust her with my boy. He also loves seeing her, which tells me how happy he is at hers.

Jo has looked after our dogs, she’s very kind caring and reliable. Will definitely be using Jo again as we felt our dogs were in safe capable hands

Jo has on many occasions over the years looked after my Jack Russell Dotty, whilst Ive been away on holidays and during the day when I needed help with dog waking. Jo is so caring and Dotty loves being with her and I can relax knowing she is being looked after. I always recommend Jo to my dog owner friends.

I have known Jo for many years and she has looked after my dog many many times. He absolutely loves her. She’s so caring and kind with all animals especially dogs having been a dog owner herself. I would highly recommend Jo to look after your precious pooch.
