Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy Tails Every Time 🐾
Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I share the most beautiful and cheeky shihtzu with my mum. In the past, I’ve also cared for cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and reptiles, including bearded dragons, tortoises, and geckos. I gained hands-on experience working in kennels, where I looked after dogs of all ages, breeds and temperaments - feeding, exercising, giving medication, playtime, and baths. I’ve also shadowed a professional groomer, so I know the basics of safe bathing and handling. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or loving care, I’ll treat your pet like my own. 🐾
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Dropped our dog off and instantly felt like this was a good and safe environment. Plenty of pictures and good communication. Will definitely recommend.
Libby was fantastic. Our dogs barely noticed we had left. She treated them like royalty and was very communicative, sending lots of updates and pictures. Her location is also ideal for casual walks. She adored them and it’s clear they adored her. Would 100% recommend Libby and would definitely be happy to leave the fluff monsters with her again!
Libby is by far the most caring and thoughtful people I know. She has a natural love for animals and treats every pet as if they were her own. I can’t think of anyone better to trust with your fur children. She’s reliable, kind, and always goes the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Anyone who chooses Libby as their sitter or walker will be in very good hands.
My mums collie, Ollie, always looks forward to spending time with Libby. Whether it’s walks or trips to the dog field, she make sure he’s happy, safe, and having fun. Her caring approach really brings out the best in him — any dog would be lucky to spend time with her!

Schedule
Working term-time in a school means I have a structured schedule that fits well around pet care. On weekdays I’m available from 4.30pm for walks, check-ins, or evening care, and I can also do early-morning visits before work. My husband is frequently at home during the week too so he jumps in to help where he can. Weekends are much more flexible, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. During school holidays I have even greater availability, which allows me to offer daytime care as well as extra walks or check-ins. This balance means I can provide reliable, consistent support while tailoring my time to what works best for both you and your pet.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When I visit your home, I make sure your pet feels happy and secure while sticking to their usual routines so everything stays familiar. I focus on building trust and keeping them comfortable, giving lots of love, attention, and care no matter where they are. I’m happy to care for pets in my home with notice, giving them a safe and loving environment while you’re away. Don’t worry if they’re not friendly with other dogs — I share my shihtzu with my mum, so pets can have a calm, separate space! My home also has a garden that’s perfect for zoomies, playtime, and fresh-air fun. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for, just like they would in their own home.
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy and active! Depending on their personality, we might enjoy long walks, zoomies in the garden, gentle games of fetch, or quiet cuddle time. If your pet enjoys adventures, I’m happy to take them to pet-friendly spots or even trips to Grafham for a fun day out. Every visit is tailored to their needs so they get the perfect mix of exercise, play, and relaxation.

- To give the best care possible, it’s helpful to know a bit about your pet ahead of time. This includes their routines, dietary needs, any medications, favourite games, and how they get along with other animals or people. I also like to know if they have any anxieties, health issues, or special habits so I can make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable from the moment we meet. The more I know, the better I can tailor our time together to suit their personality and needs.
