Loving WFH Dog Mum w Fenced Garden-5min from Park!

I am a lifelong animal lover originally from California, now based in Maida Vale/Little Venice. I've been a dog foster and owner for over a decade, and I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I currently share my life with my rescue dog, Becky, who moved with me from California. She's very socialized and loves to play - but also knows when to give space. Whether your dog is energetic or more low-key, Becky and I will make sure they feel welcomed and loved!

Kelsey was great! She did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were away. She was a great with communication and sending updates. Her dog, Becky, is super sweet and gets along well with any and every dog! We will definitely be booking with Kelsey again!

We’re thrilled after our second stay with Kelsey and Becky. We received regular photo updates and we could tell that Toby was relaxed and very happy in his environment. Thank you for taking such good care of Tobes during the holidays!

Our Cavalier Alfie had a wonderful stay with Kelsey and her own friendly dog. Great walks, lots of games and a lovely home atmosphere. Nice videos and pics throughout Alfie’s stay to keep us informed and happy. We’ll be back for sure.

Kelsey has the most adorable dog, Becky, and my dog got along with her so well. It was amazing knowing he had such great company the whole time. She was incredibly sweet with him, even though he’s super high-energy and needs tons of attention and exercise. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing while he was with her. The fact that she has her own dog actually made me even more relaxed — she clearly knows dogs inside out. She took them on so many walks, runs, and ball-throw sessions in the park, and he came home happy and tired in the best way. I couldn’t have asked for better care.

Schedule

I work from home full-time - so your dog will have plenty of attention throughout the day. Walks, playtime, belly rubs, and reading cuddles are all part of the daily routine here! I'm available for weekday and weekend stays, and can be flexible with drop-off/pick-up times to fit your schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a dog-friendly flat with access to a fully-fenced garden. I'm also just a 5-minute walk to the park (Paddington Rec) with two fenced dog exercise areas, so we enjoy plenty of time outdoors.

Pets

A typical day

I'm happy to tailor our schedule to your pup's needs - but a typical day starts with a 20–30 minute neighbourhood walk, followed by breakfast and some playtime. During the day, I like to spend time working from my garden, a nearby park, or a dog-friendly café (weather depending). I also have a very spacious indoor area, pet-friendly furniture, and a large patio - all perfect for playtime.

It would be helpful to know as much as possible about your dog’s personality and routine so I can make their stay as comfortable as possible. If your pup enjoys a bit of travel, I am also very happy taking them out and about - like a trip to a pet-friendly café or a local market (with your permission, of course). Just let me know what they’re used to and which methods of transportation they’re comfortable with.
