Pet care experience
I am Mandy, I am a genuine dog lover and have been since the day an old collie turned up at my door when I was a kid. I had so much attention to give it, but being only eight and not the head of the household, my parents said I had to say goodbye. Obviously the dog was lost; but I didn't want to let it go! I didn't understand about the responsibility that comes with having a dog. Thankfully it came to a point my life where I had the time to get a pet and I got a dog named Barney who I rescued from the cat and dog home. I fell in love with him straight away. Of course, all dogs go to heaven and it broke my heart which made me vow I'd never get another. I am very experienced flexible, caring and conscientious. Your dog/dogs will receive great care and attention. The picture with the dogs in the van was a housesit in France watching 6 dogs and a farm . I also looked after 8 rescue dogs in Spain last year and heading back again to see them....excited!That was a fantastic experience also. Dog walking , housesitting and dog boarding is my full time job. Most of my clients come from word of mouth or we end up chatting on walks. Hence why no up to date reviews on here. I would advise early booking if interested. My clients have included TV Chef Nisha Katona. and actor and director Jason Connery I am very respectful of my clients home and boundaries which may be set. You will return to a tidy and clean home - you will find it how you left it, so to speak.

Morning routine is up around 7am , dogs let out into the garden for the toilet , then fed depending on time , then on my bed until I have my coffee , then shower for me then dog walk which will vary day to day .
Home
Information Mandy M. would like to know about your pet
Most of the information I need would be asked on the meet and greet . Dietary needs if any , habits , vet details , little quirks .
A typical day
Dogs love to smell! Lots of smelling is more exhausting than a half an hours walk as this is stimulating their brain. But nice long walks are also on the agenda ?. Dogs do need rest and over stimulation can have them unsettled . I like to bring a good balance .

Boarding dogs are with me all day , they are a part of my day . They are just like my dog. All dogs are different so one dog may just want a short walk and a chill and another a long walk then chill . I follow instructions from owners
