Each and every pet welcomed as if they were my own
Pet care experience
I have always grown up with animals in the house, particularly dogs. They're a part of the family. I qualified as a veterinary surgeon in 1997 and currently work as a veterinary acupuncturist. I worked in small animal practice for many years so animals and in particular dogs have, and always will be a very big part of me and my life. Due to family commitments I am unable to commit to the responsibility of a dog full time right now but I have lots of free time every day to care for your pet and enjoy walking in any weather. There are many varied walks available nearby from grassland to woods to beaches. Every pet that stays or visits will benefit from enrichment to their environment which includes scatter feeding, lickimats and sniff-aris (to name a few!) I can provide a variety of services depending on your needs - dog boarding, doggy day care, dog walking and drop in visits. I also provide care for cats and small furries. New owner/pet bookings will benefit from £15 off their first booking by clicking on this direct profile link https://www.rover.com/sit/kirsth40895 and entering the promotional code KIRSTH40895. I look forward to meeting you and your pets :)

This was Broxies 2nd stay at Kirsty’s and her family’s house, Broxie is alway made to feel part of the their family 💛. Kirsty always send lots of pictures and texts letting you know he’s ok, thank you Lesley and Chris xxx
We've just collected Poppy from Kirsty after a week and although she was pleased to see us she kept running into the house and collecting toys and running around Kirsty! She clearly loved her holiday with Kirsty and her boys which was evident in the daily and numerous photos! It was so reassuring to see how well Poppy was getting on while we were abroad and made our holiday stress free knowing that she was being so well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Kirsty. She's brilliant!🥰
Absolutely fantastic with my lab!! He has just been for 3 nights and I got loads of pics of him playing and being so happy. Would definitely recommend using Kirsty for your fur babies. 2nd holiday for mine and will definitely use again!!! Xxxx
Kirsty was fantastic, we left our wee 15 1/2 year old jack Russell “Broxie” with her for 2 weeks, we got updates everyday and lots of great Photos, it really is like home from home for you Dog ? thank you Broxie will definitely stay with Kirsty again xx

I am a qualified veterinary surgeon so your pet will be in very safe hands. During your small animal's visit or stay they become part of my family and will be treated as such.

I would like to know dietary requirements and if your pet needs any medication. I would also like to know if your dog has trouble with anything eg loud noises, other dogs, traffic etc
A typical day
I have many walks available on my doorstep from woodland or grassland to beaches. I love walking and am happy to walk your dog for as long as you'd like me to. I have four children so there's never any shortage of someone to throw a ball!
