Walks For Wags!

I grew up around my family's two german shepherds and my love for dogs grew from there. This intelligent, lovely yet sometimes challenging breed taught me a lot about dogs. I have been looking after dogs and cats and working through Rover for 3 years now and have experience with all kinds of breeds, personalities and ages. As I am very interested in dog psychology and behaviour I am currently studying level 3 course in Canine Care, Behaviour and Welfare. If your dog has any behaviour issues I am willing to learn about their challenges to support them during their stay. I have experience in dog training with both my family's dogs and some of my client's dogs, therefore if there is anything you'd like to work on with your dog we can chat about it. If there are any current training goals you're already working on I am happy to learn about them and to continue the training while I’m looking after your dog. I stand for ethical, reward-based and force-free training methods.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and take the time to understand each dog’s and cat’s routine, personality and individual needs. I’m always happy to send regular photo updates, as I know how lovely it is to see your pet enjoying their time and being cared for while you’re away.

Clear communication - when we first met Loreta the babies were absolutely at ease with her which makes understanding she would have been a great fit as our fur babies could be a little nervous with people! We will consider Loreta again in the future! Thank you!

Loreta looked after my cats with care, gave lovely updates and even helped keep my tomatoes alive in my absences. It was hugely reassuring to have her support whilst I was away! Thank you!

I came home to two very contented, happy cats after Loreta had been caring for them while I was on holiday. Loreta was brilliant - she and the cats made friends quickly at the meet and great, she had great communication before and during the booking, and kindly did additional things like watering my plants. It was so great to relax on holiday knowing that my cats were in such capable, caring hands.

Loreta was fantastic - great with communication both before and during the time she was cat sitting. Our cat was very happy and well taken care of for the two weeks we were away.

Loreta looked after our guinea pigs and tropical fish while we were away on holiday. She was fantastic. Excellent communication, really professional and she went above and beyond. I highly recommend her!

Loreta was a great sitter, always on time and stayed with my pets for a good while to play with them and make sure all their needs were met. I was really at peace during my trip and didn’t worry once that something might go wrong! 🥰 I’m very happy with her service and will definitely ask her to let sit for me in the future 😊

I’m currently a full-time dog walker and pet sitter, and I have availability for walks and drop-in visits, whether you’re looking for regular arrangements or occasional help when needed. Feel free to send me a message, I’d love to arrange a free meet & greet and get to know you and your pet!

Cats
0 to 7 kg
7 to 18 kg
18 to 45 kg
over 45 kg
Loreta can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
I’d love to hear all about your pet’s personality, energy levels, favourite games, treats and toys, any funny quirks or habits, likes and dislikes, fears, training, routines, and anything else you think I should know. The more you can tell me, the better I can tailor my care to help your pet feel happy, comfortable and understood. We can chat through this during the meet & greet, although for more last-minute bookings I’m also happy to go with written instructions if that’s easier.
