If I’m pet sitting I often include dogs in day-to-day activities where appropriate and safe, always following owner preferences. Our daily routine would most likely be walks, playtime (if they like playing), basic training if requested, mealtimes, and chilling on the sofa in the evenings. If your dog is good with people I enjoy taking a dog with me to a dog friendly cafe or pub for food, usually after a walk once a week. I also run another flexible part time business from home alongside pet sitting, so I’m a great match for dogs who are comfortable relaxing independently while I work on my laptop if needed.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow your instructions and requirements depending on the home and area. Just let me know during the meet and greet and the pet care form. Finding the right fit: I’m passionate about providing calm, attentive care, so it’s important that we’re a good match. I’m best suited to dogs who can settle indoors between activities and who are physically manageable on lead. While I have experience with mild reactivity and focus work, I’m not able to care for dogs whose behaviour involves strong lunging and barking around other dogs or people, particularly in larger or stronger dogs where there is a risk of injury or loss of control. To ensure safety and quality of care, I intentionally keep numbers low - typically up to two small dogs together, or one larger dog at a time.

Information Laylee A. would like to know about your pet
All of this will be asked on the Pet Care form. Things I like to know in the initial messages are whether your pet has any special needs, behavioural needs or challenges, or health conditions so that I can decide if we’d be a good fit before booking a meet & greet. Then the pet care form, sent to you after the meet and greet, asks for any info like daily routine and feeding schedule, favourite games and activities, favourite walks and terrains, any command words that they know, vet info etc. The meet and greet itself is focused on getting to know your dog and taking them for a short walk to see how they do on lead, around dogs, and recall (if off lead) and of course so you can get to know me so you have peace of mind! I have experience with a variety of breeds, but for safety reasons I currently only accept dogs within a size/strength range that I can comfortably and confidently handle.
A typical day
Pet care is completely tailored to each individual dog, their breed instincts, abilities, and fitness levels. From long to short walks, favourite games and activities indoors and/or out, various terrains, or a favourite spot on the sofa, I follow your dog's routine and their preferences.

Pet care experience
Hi I’m Laylee, a dog lover with 11 years experience in pet care, dog walking and pet sitting on an ad hoc basis, as well as caring for my boxer, who I trained from a puppy. After my dog died in 2023 I started working with dogs full-time and set up North Tyne K9 on Rover when I moved to Northumberland in 2024. I love being around dogs, interacting with them through play, training, out in nature on walks, and relaxing on the sofa with them after a day of doing all these things. I love learning about canine behaviour and psychology, different breeds, their temperaments, traits and instincts. I have a Level 2 qualification in Canine Care and Welfare, and a Level 3 qualification in Canine First Aid, which included being shown how to give health checks, signs and symptoms of common issues and diseases, and CPR. I’ve also worked with rescue dogs in the Caribbean and street dogs in Iran, so have a good understanding of different kinds of dogs and their needs. I offer one-to-one care in your dogs own home, not a multi-dog daycare setup. Your dog has my full attention, and my day is structured around their needs. That means proper walks, time outdoors in nature, and a relaxed environment where your dog can settle and be at home. This is ideal for dogs who: • Prefer a quieter, low-stress environment • Need consistency and routine • Enjoy proper walks and stimulation • Don’t thrive in busy group daycare settings What’s included: • 1:1 care throughout the day • Structured routine tailored to your dog • 2–3 quality walks (depending on your dog’s needs) plus toilet breaks. • A calm home environment with plenty of attention I charge a flat rate of £35/day to reflect the level of care, time, and attention your dog receives, and helps with transport costs to your home. If you’re looking for a cheaper, high-volume daycare service, there are plenty of options available, but if you want your dog cared for as an individual, you’re in the right place! As well as dogs I’ve also cared for cats, goats, sheep, horses, chickens, ducks, a turtle and fish. I love animals so welcome any opportunity to learn more about them and am open to looking after all kinds 😊

Reviews
Laylee was great with both dogs she bonded almost immediately with them, calm and confident she handled them well. Both are young energetic and eager but she wasn’t fazed and they had a great time with her. What was appreciated was the fact that rather than second guess a situation she was happy to ask for guidance. One 2 minute phone call over bedtime protocols settled everything. Thank you Laylee.
Laylee was a great sitter. Gave Bess some good walks and probably lots of hugs and attention. I think Bess missed her when she was gone. I would love to ask Laylee to care for my dog again and would certainly recommend her to care for your pet and home. Thank you Laylee 😃
Laylee was an absolute star. Her response time to initial emails was spot on. She did a meet/ greet and quickly made friends, playing with our elderly dog. She came early to do our sit which was greatly appreciated. She took our dog on lots of adventures including an appointment we had arranged at the vets. She was happy to give our dog meds three times a day and soon got to know her quirks and habits. Laylee sent daily updates and photos which was so reassuring. We could not recommend Laylee highly enough. Thank you Rover for a great first experience.
Laylee was so lovely with our pup, she had a fab day playing and cuddles! Thank you so much for your help to us
