Hi, I'm Lil ! I live in Epsom, on the Woodcote Estate - I have worked from home for a number of years and care for my friends and family member dogs during their holidays. I absolutely love time spent with my extended pooch family and they fit into my life perfectly, they join me on my wonderful walks with my own dog Nelly, and I can provide them with a fantastic space to relax and feel a real sense of home comforts. I have a passion for animal welfare and feel completely fulfilled when I am around them. I have owned two dogs in my life, Peggy a Miniature Schnauzer, which I sadly lost to Diabetes 5 years ago, and now Nelly a Cockapoo, who is 4 years old. I have experience of looking after an elderly, unwell dog, and I also have experience of puppy training, and raising a puppy into a well behaved and loving dog. I also have experience of looking after larger breeds such as a British Bulldog, Boxer and a Labradoodle. I walk for an hour and a half every day, in near by Epsom Common, Nonsuch Park and Headley Heath - and would love some more company soon! I am currently at home - so I am available to look after your dog every day - i'm also very flexible with timings/days/holiday cover. I have a contained large kitchen/diner for your dog to feel safe - if a new house is too daunting for them. I have a large secure garden directly from the kitchen/diner. I have plenty of sofas and comfy spots for your dog to relax too. I have an abundance of toys/ balls for play time. I am happy to stick with your feeding regime and also administer any medication if required. I have a quiet household and no small children running around, we rarely have visitors and certainly wouldn't have any during your dogs stay. I do this - because I love it, not for any other reason. I run a small business at home - which consumes around an hour each day, this is exactly why I have all the time the world to dedicate to your beloved dogs. I will not leave them alone unless I need to pop to the shops. I have a large, fenced garden - which is very secure. I have a large kitchen/diner with access to the garden - which is contained and can be secured when accessing the front door. I have no side access to the house - therefore absolutely no chance of 'the side gate being left open'! I have no small children - so your dog will not be aggravated in any way! I also have minimal visitors to the house and certainly not any whilst your precious pooch stays with me.
