I will always follow your established routine to give your pets familiarity and comfort. I can care for your pets in the comfort of their own surroundings or provide them with a loving home away from home. I only care for up to two dogs at a time for boarding or daycare, which means I can give them my full attention at all times. I also avoid mixing dogs from different households unless they have already been introduced and I know they get on well together.

I'd be happy to organise a complimentary Meet & Greet before the first stay so we can all get to know each other. I often house and pet sit with my 10-year-old son, with the full approval of the owners of course. He has been accustomed to pet and house sitting from a young age and adores animals as much as I do. He tends to bond with them instantly and never tires of throwing balls and showering them with affection. If my son is with me, rest assured that he and your pets will be fully supervised by me (as your sitter) at all times. This ensures your animals receive the utmost care and attention, in full compliance with the Rover Guarantee.

Information Linda M. would like to know about your pet

If caring for dogs in our home, I prefer small to medium breeds. However, we may be able to accommodate a slightly larger dog like a Lab if they settle easily after a good walk and are not too boisterous when inside. We have looked after some gentle giants that like to spend much of the day snoozing at our feet, so I'm happy to consider each request on an individual basis. If house-sitting in your home, we're comfortable with dogs of all sizes. We have experience looking after animal menageries and very large dogs, including a Scottish Deerhound and a Bernese Mountain Dog. For dogs that board with us, we can care for dogs that are crate trained or who settle easily on their own bed or a sofa at night. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, likes and dislikes, and any behaviours to be aware of. We've had many wonderful experiences with many wonderful dogs. However, we've had a small number of challenges too so please bear in mind that we won't be able to care for dogs in our home that bark excessively, have a tendency to mark their territory inside other people's houses, and/or are aggressive to other dogs or people. However, we would consider a request to house sit if behavioural issues are unlikely to occur if your dog(s) are relaxed in the comfort of their own home.

A typical day

We love to engage dogs with enjoyable and stimulating affection and play - but always on their terms. A typical day includes an adventure in the countryside either on or off-lead, plus walks around the local area in Much Wenlock to check out all the interesting smells and goings-on. Plus ball throwing and other games your dog enjoys. We may stop for coffee at one of the many dog-friendly cafes and we will lavish your dog(s) with all the pats, cuddles, tummy rubs and snuggles they could ever want.

Loving Home with Experienced Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello and welcome to my profile. I have a DBS check and a long track record of immaculately caring for homes and animals. When dogs stay for boarding or daycare, I provide a loving home away from home so they can feel relaxed, comfortable and happy. Similarly, with housesitting I provide the stability of a loving and happy home in familiar surroundings. This provides total peace of mind so you can enjoy your time away, knowing I'm caring for your beloved furry family member as if they were my own. I have over 10 years of experience on various pet sitting platforms and regularly receive repeat bookings. I work from home and have flexible hours, which means that your dog(s) will have constant company, care and attention the entire time. I live near the Shropshire Way and Wenlock Edge, which provide wonderful opportunities for off-lead adventures. Your dog(s) will receive at least one long walk a day for 30 mins to an hour (depending on their size, health and usual walking habits), plus 2-3 shorter walks to check out all the smells and goings on in the area while enjoying a comfort break. If you have a high-energy dog that needs two long walks a day (e.g. 2 x one hour) I can provide this for a small added fee. I've had many wonderful experiences while pet sitting, including caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, horses, ponies, alpacas, chickens, ducks, sheep, goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, turtles, and even the odd snake. I especially enjoy building long-term relationships where I'm able to develop a strong bond with the animals, so dogs feel instantly relaxed in my presence and their owners can feel totally relaxed too. If you require housesitting and have a large number of animals please message me for a quote, as I can offer a capped rate based on their daily requirements rather than charging per pet. For example, I recently completed a 2 week sit with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 horses, 2 guinea pigs, 1 snake, 3 alpacas and a flock of sheep.
