I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, so I take the responsibility seriously. Before looking after a pet, I like to get to know their personality, routine, exercise needs, feeding schedule and anything else that will help them feel comfortable. I’m careful to follow your instructions, particularly around walks, feeding, medication, treats and interactions with other dogs or people. I’m also mindful of dogs who may be nervous, reactive or have separation anxiety, and I’ll always prioritise their safety rather than putting them in an uncomfortable situation. When walking, I’m attentive to traffic, other dogs and unfamiliar surroundings, and I’ll only allow off-lead time if you’ve specifically said this is appropriate. I’m also happy to send you updates and photos during visits or walks, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. I’ll treat your home with the same respect as I would my own and make sure your pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away.
