Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving dog care you can trust!
What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and deep passion for dogs. I've had dogs since I was born and have always been around them, which has given me an innate understanding of their needs and behaviors. Currently, I have four dogs that I’ve self-trained, which has equipped me with valuable skills in training, walking, and caring for dogs of all ages. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends since I was 16, allowing me to develop a reliable and trustworthy reputation. My experience includes caring for both puppies and senior dogs, ensuring that I can provide tailored care for each dog, whether they need extra playtime or gentle handling. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing a loving and safe environment that sets me apart from others.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I ensure that all doors and gates are securely closed to prevent escapes, and I monitor the pet closely to keep them safe and happy. I respect the pet owner's space and follow their specific routines and guidelines, ensuring their dog feels comfortable and at ease. I also prioritize communication, providing regular updates with photos and messages to assure pet owners that their furry friend is in good hands. My experience with dogs, along with my genuine love for them, allows me to create a safe and nurturing environment for each pet I care for. Your dog's well-being is my main focus, and I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own.
Ratings and reviews
Lucy was great at keeping us up to date and took very good care of our two dogs and the house. One of our dogs is particularly nervous, but she was great with him and very patient. We came back to two very happy dogs. we would absolutely ask her to watch them again.
Lucy has been dog sitting for my 4 dogs since they were puppies. They have grown a real special bond with her and are always so happy and excited to see her. Lucy is reliable and always has the dogs best interest at heart. Nothing is too much for her, even helping out at late notice! Thanks Lucy! I would recommend Lucy as both a pet sitter and dog walker.
Lucy is brilliant with my 2 year old Pug cross, Benji. She has helped him become confident around other people and dogs when walking him as well as in the bath after a muddy walk! Benji is always so excited to see Lucy and enjoys spending time with her. She is caring and patient. I would definitely recommend Lucy.

Schedule
Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as a student, especially during seasonal breaks when I have more free time. I prioritize my schedule to ensure that I can dedicate ample time and attention to the dogs I care for. During these breaks, I love the idea of spending my days with dogs, going for long walks, playing, and providing them with the companionship they deserve. Having this extra time allows me to give each dog individualized care and attention, making their experience enjoyable and fulfilling. My flexible schedule means I can accommodate different needs, whether it’s for daily walks, playtime, or just being there for cuddles. Caring for pets is not just a job for me; it’s a passion that brings joy to my routine.

- Before caring for a pet, it’s essential to gather important information that will help me provide the best possible care tailored to their individual needs. Knowing details such as their dietary restrictions, any allergies, and their daily routines allows me to maintain consistency and comfort for the pet. Understanding their personality traits—whether they are shy or outgoing—helps me engage with them appropriately. I also like to learn about their favorite toys, preferred activities, and any specific commands they respond to, ensuring that our time together is enjoyable and enriching. Additionally, it’s crucial to be informed about any health issues or behavioral concerns so that I can be attentive and proactive in addressing their needs. This knowledge not only builds trust between us but also allows me to create a safe and nurturing environment for each pet.
