Highlights
Pet care experience
Kind, Reliable Animal Lover
I started Dog Walking for Neighbours at 10, Pet Sitting and helping neighbours with horses from 14 and then Housing Sitting from the age of 16. I’ve grown up around cats, dogs and horses of all sizes and ages, from young animals through to seniors. I also have experience caring for rescue dogs and horses, so I understand the extra patience and care they can require. With every dog I’ve owned, I’ve attended training classes, and I even showed my rescue Border Collie, Ollie, who won first place in both the County Agility competition and the “Most Handsome Hound” category. Growing up, the family pets were primarily my responsibility, so I’m very comfortable with everything from puppy care and training to looking after older dogs with changing needs. I’m more than happy to get stuck in with muddy walks, messy paws, and all the less glamorous parts of pet care too! I’m 27 and have recently moved to the area for work. At the moment, I’m unable to have pets of my own as I live in shared accommodation and occasionally travel for work. I’ve really been missing having animals in my life, as they’ve been a huge part of my daily routine since I was a child.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will comply with all owners requests for their pets and these will always be my first port of call when it comes to care. If I am ever unsure, I will ask, communication is very important to me as I know when away from my own pet I am always thinking of them.
Ratings and reviews
Kirsty was a brilliant sitter for Sonny, very friendly, great communication before and during her stay and she left the house immaculately clean. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and Sonny took to her immediately. We felt very relaxed as we left knowing that Sonny was going to be very well looked after. I’d definitely recommend her and will booking her again.
Kirsty was absolutely fantastic with my dog penny, The attention to detail and pride she took in taking care of my dog was phenomenal. I wouldn’t have anyone else look after my dog. Kirsty always provided long engaging walks which was great as it made my usually really hyper dog tired for me coming home (she’s crazy). I’ve had Kirsty stay over one night to watch penny and I came back to my home the same way I left it, no mess, no hassle, happy dog, it was great ! I would 100% recommend Kirsty to anyone looking for a sitter , or even just someone to walk or feed your pet. It’s hard now to find someone who cares for your dog as much as you do, but I believe I have definitely found that with Kirsty.
Kirsty B did a pop in for Mac and was punctual and sent me photos. Mac was happy and so were we. I hope to use Kirsty again.

Schedule
I currently work a 9 to 5 in transport logistics with a half day on Fridays, 12pm finishes. I am happy to do early morning walks and then afternoon and evening walks. Back home, I’m out til 10:30pm with our family dog so happy to do late nights. I am unable to do lunch walks or visits Monday to Thursday. I have no weekend commitments so would schedule my Saturday and Sundays around the pets schedule to maintain their routines. I have my own transport with a clean drivers license and have been driving for 10 years with a National Trust Membership, if you as a owner is happy, I am more then happy to take your pet off to nearby areas for them to explore.
