Pet care experience
Loving, Flexible & Reliable Pet Care at Home
I know how important it is to feel completely at ease with the person caring for your pet – they’re family, after all. I grew up with both a dog and a cat, and after sadly losing them both within a year of each other, I really felt the absence of that unconditional companionship. That’s when I began dog walking, cat sitting, and house sitting – and I’ve loved every moment since. Now that I work from home, I’m able to open up my space and welcome other families’ beloved pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own – with patience, love, and plenty of affection. Whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and quiet, I always adapt to their needs and routines to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. If you’re in the process of training your dog, I’m more than happy to support that. Just let me know your commands or routines, and I’ll make sure things stay consistent while they’re with me. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly home with lots of cosy spots to relax, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos while you’re away – so you can relax, knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether you need someone for a weekend or something more regular, I’d love to help give your pet the love and care they deserve!

Ratings and reviews
Lily was brilliant, very reliable and plenty of love for our Rocky!
Lily looked after our hamster so brilliantly with home visits for a week. She took the time to get to know him and really bonded with him. She’s such a natural with animals and kept us updated daily so we had no worries about him at all. Thank you Lily!
Lily was great and took good care of Pal. Will definitely use again
Lily looked after our Syrian hamster, Professor F, for a week. I couldn’t have hoped for better care for him, she made a huge effort to get to know him and spend time with him, as well as feeding him and changing his water daily. I loved getting the updates from their time together! Lily has a real gift with animals and the whole booking was very smooth. Thank you Lily!
Was the first time leaving our little pup nova with someone for an extended period of time and lily + Adam really put our mind at ease. They were really attentive during meet and greet and sent lovely updates whilst we were away and treated nova as if she was their own. Will definitely book again!
Lily and Adam are so great. Very friendly. Very responsive. So nice to speak with as well! Leo loved them and so did I.

Schedule
I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available most days for boarding, overnight stays, drop-ins, or even just a quick walk. I’m happy to fit around your pet’s routine and can usually be available up to seven days a week.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a three bedroom terraced house with a fenced garden. My home is pet-friendly, with safe spaces for rest and play, and I always tailor the setup to each animal’s needs. I’m also lucky to have lots of green space nearby including tooting common and Streatham common which makes walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their usual routines to help them feel as comfortable and settled as possible. I always take time to understand their needs, behaviours, and any house rules you’d like me to follow. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I’m careful, observant, and always put your pet’s safety and wellbeing first. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax, knowing your pet is being well cared for and loved while you’re away.
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I’m always happy to follow the routine you have in place – whether that’s when they like to be walked, how long for, their favourite walking spots, or how they like to play. Some love chasing a ball or meeting other dogs, while others prefer a quieter stroll and to stay close by – I adapt to whatever makes your pet feel happiest and most comfortable. At home, I make sure they have a calm space to relax, regular toilet breaks, and plenty of affection and attention throughout the day. If they’re used to playtime, enrichment, or cuddles at certain times, I’ll keep that going to make their day feel as normal as possible.
