Highlights
Pet care experience
Behaviour & Welfare Degree|7yrs Exp
I hold a degree in Animal Behaviour and Welfare, am fully trained in pet first aid, and have 7 years of hands-on experience caring for other people’s dogs. Training Experience: • Trained a family member’s dog to Silver level Kennel Club • Worked with dogs outside of family on obedience and behaviour • Experience with agility training • Successfully trained puppies in house training, crate training, and both basic and complex commands My background means I don’t just look after dogs — I understand their behaviour, can read their body language, and provide care that’s tailored to each individual dog’s needs
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kelly was fantastic with Pippin! She sent lots of updates and Pippin came back to us really relaxed and very happy. Can't recommend her enough
Kelly looked after my 14 year old staffy roxy for 4 days. Kelly provided loads of photos and updates. Roxy was very happy in her home, kelly was professional, kind and compassionate towards roxy, providing her with taylored care after asking questions about her routine to minimise stress, she also gave her medication as instructed and informed me when it had run out returning the bottle back with her. Can not reccomend her highly enough. Thanks Kelly

Schedule
Pet care fits beautifully into my routine because I’m at home most days with a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day, every day, which means I can give dogs the time, attention, and consistency they thrive on. My days are structured around gentle routines — perfect for slow walks, playtime, training sessions, or just quiet company. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday play session, or regular check-ins throughout the day, I can easily adapt to your dog’s normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free. Being available most of the day also means I never rush visits — there’s always time for extra cuddles, a longer sniff on a walk, or that little bit of extra attention some dogs need.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I offer a warm, safe, home-from-home experience where your dog becomes part of my daily routine. I’m at home most of the day, every day — so your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. I have a good-sized, fully enclosed garden for your dog to run around in or simply relax outside and enjoy the breeze. A typical day includes: • Regular walks in quiet local areas near Street • Playtime, cuddles, and plenty of interaction • Fresh water and feeding exactly to your instructions • A comfortable, designated rest area with their own bed and blankets from home • Photo and video updates so you can see they’re happy and settled With my Animal Behaviour and Welfare degree, I carefully introduce dogs to their new environment, read their body language to ensure they’re comfortable, and adapt my care to each dog’s individual needs — whether that’s extra quiet time, gentle play, or longer sniff walks. Dog Walking: Solo walks only — never group walks (unless specifically requested) — with my full attention at all times. I adapt the pace and style of every walk to suit your dog’s age and temperament. Safety is always my priority: I’m fully trained in pet first aid, and I always carry a pet first aid kit with me on walks.
