Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm and caring dog walker 🐶
I’ve been around animals for most of my life and I have always had a huge love for them. Growing up, we had a lovely rescue Collie x Whippet from when I was 9 years old, which gave me early experience with rescue dogs and the understanding of different temperaments. She had diabetes, and eventually turned blind. I helped out with giving insulin and support. I also fostered a very sweet rescue Pomeranian (mixed breed) for 4 years who was nervous, reactive and possessive when she first came to me. Through patience, consistency and building trust, I made huge progress with her, including her confidence around men and children especially, and we created an incredibly close bond together. I am a naturally calm, gentle and nurturing person, however I am firm when necessary as I believe dogs thrive with clear boundaries, patience and kindness. I’m confident around a variety of personalities and happy with lead walks, off-lead walks (where safe and recall is appropriate), forest walks, road walks and field walks. I also drive a 7 seater and I'm happy for dogs to be in my car. As a mum to two young children aged 4 and 1, safety is extremely important to me. My youngest will be with me in a pram during walks, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable and trustworthy around children and prams. I’m experienced and comfortable around other domestic and non-domestic animals. Your pet would be treated with genuine care, patience and attention as if they were my own 🐾❤️

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I would always care for them with patience, kindness and attention. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable and happy in my care. I’m comfortable with lead walks and off-lead walks where safe and approved by the owner. As I may have my youngest child in a pram with me, I only accept dogs which are friendly and comfortable around children and prams. During drop-in visits, I’m happy to provide company, playtime, feeding, fresh water, toilet breaks and plenty of fuss and reassurance. I will always treat your pet and home with genuine care and respect. I have worked as a domestic carer and cleaner in the past, and this experience has taught me how to be a trusted, respectful presence in a home, ensuring that you feel completely at ease and confident while I am there caring for your pet. Please note, I will have my 1 year old with me unless childcare can be prearranged, please feel free to reach out as this can be worked around.
Ratings and reviews
Lucy would be a brilliant walker / carer for your dog! She grew up with our family pet dog Holly, and owned her own rescue dog (Tiny) once she lived on her own. Lucy is also very responsible and conscientious and a good time-keeper, your dog (and property) would be in safe hands with Lucy.

Schedule
I have a flexible routine as I am a stay at home mum and I am available for walks and drop-ins during school hours. I enjoy being outdoors daily and can often accommodate different schedules within those times.
