Highlights
Pet care experience
Passionate Dog Lover & Trainer in the Making
I like to get to know each dog as an individual. I’m patient with nervous pups, gentle with older dogs, and enjoy helping energetic dogs have fun safely. I grew up with a Staffy and have also spent years looking after and walking pets for friends and family, which has helped me understand different personalities and what makes each dog feel comfortable. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I know how important it is for owners to feel confident their pets are safe and happy while they’re away. I keep in touch with updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your dog is doing. I’ve completed Pet First Aid Level 3, the IMDT 2-Day Dog Training Course, and I also have a DBS check. Combined with my hands-on experience, these help me provide safe, confident, and positive care. I pay attention to little things — like energy, environment, and routine — to make sure every dog feels relaxed and happy. Whether it’s a shy rescue or a playful puppy, I adjust my approach to suit their personality and make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment
I make sure every space feels calm and welcoming for the dogs I care for. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully and pay attention to the little details that help pets feel at ease — whether it’s their favourite blanket, toy, or familiar walking route. I tailor every visit to each dog’s needs, from peaceful strolls for gentle souls to more adventurous outings for pups who love to explore. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I’m fully insured and currently completing a Level 3 Pet First Aid course, so I’ll be ready to respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I’m also taking part in the IMDT 2-Day Dog Training Course, building my knowledge in behaviour, confidence-building, and positive reinforcement to give dogs the best possible experience. I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your pet, so I focus on creating a safe, structured, and positive environment wherever we are. I keep communication clear and consistent, provide regular updates, and make sure every dog feels secure, happy, and cared for — just as I’d want for my own.
Ratings and reviews
I’ve known Keegan for years, and he’s always been fantastic with my three dogs. He’s so caring, patient, and responsible, and you can tell he truly loves animals. Any dog in his care will be treated like family—I couldn’t recommend him more!

Schedule
Dogs are part of my everyday life. I walk and care for my dog, Gus, and I also spend time shadowing a trainer, reading, and learning more about dog behaviour. On a typical week, my days include walks, playtime, and small training exercises, which fit naturally around my routine. Pet care is woven into everything I do, and I enjoy how it keeps me active, engaged, and constantly learning.

- I’d love to know your pet’s routine, likes and dislikes, and any training or behaviour notes. It really helps to know how they are around other dogs and people, and if there’s anything that might make them nervous or reactive — certain places, sounds, or situations. That way I can make sure they always feel safe, comfortable, and happy.
