Experienced & adaptable: new fri for your dog/cat!

Pet care experience

When I was small we had a Whippet called Dill, and then later as I was growing up we had a magical Doberman called Magic. Funnily enough, between Dill and Magic I spent several years being absolutely terrified of dogs! Magic changed all that though. I am one of those people who crosses the road to say hi to dogs and one of my friends recently called me a dog whisperer after looking after her Spanish rescue for a week. I'm not in a position to own a dog myself at the moment, but regularly look after dogs for friends, either at their home or mine. I've experience caring for and walking dogs from Terrier-size to Labrador/Doberman and am physically fit and able.

Lucy is the absolute best - we were really sad to know she's moving away but we wish her the absolute best!

Being the first time we'd left Freddie with someone overnight, we were very anxious about the weekend, but Lucy made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. She was very professional, despite him pushing every button imaginable, and he was in high spirits and well exercised when we got home. Thanks again!

Lucy watched our two dogs for a week in our house! She was so respectful of our house and sent us many updates with pictures! She clearly knew our dogs very well and they were in excellent hands. Highly recommend:)

Lucy looked after our lab for a couple of overnight stays while we moved house, then again during the day the following week. We got lots of updates and our pup seemed very happy to go back each time! Would not hesitate to ask Lucy to have her again.

As of September 2022 I am back living in Edinburgh after a few months working remotely. For now I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits and dog sitting in the owner's home.

Information Lucy R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any triggers I should be aware of and what their usual toilet, sleep and walking routine is so I can match it as closely as possible.

A typical day

We can play games inside or out, and go on walks to explore the local area and parks. I love the Water of Leith as well as it's usually fairly quiet and is great for doggos that like a swim.

I work part-time from home and also teach yoga either from my living room or at a studio. My online yoga students are used to random dogs appearing in classes and it always adds to the entertainment. Pretty much everything I can do can be adapted to care for a dog.
