Pet care experience

Dog Sitter in the Acton and Chiswick area

I've got lots of experience with dogs and have looked after several breeds over the years, I am a dog lover and would love to help out dog owners who'd rather not leave theirs dogs alone for extended periods. I work from home Monday to Friday but sometimes need to go into the office once a week on a Wednesday. I live with my partner in a spacious flat with a balcony and a large, fenced communal garden. There are lots of dogs in the vicinity so your pet will have plenty of company of other dogs. Our's is a non-smoking flat and I can provide references from several dog owners who's dogs I have looked after.

Mario was great, Maple was a bit unsure about staying with a stranger since she’s just a puppy but looked really happy when we went to get her. He also took her in pretty short notice which really helped us during this heat wave, would definitely let him watch her again!

Mia is always so happy and relaxed after spending time with Mario, and she is super excited when she realises she going to spend time with him. Thank you, Mario!

Schedule

I work from home most of the week, so having the company of a dog fits perfectly into my routine. I love having a furry friend around during the day, it makes work so much more enjoyable and gives me a great excuse to get outside for walks and fresh air.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible, including feeding times and walks. I pay close attention to their behaviour and needs, and I’m always happy to give updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks to Gunnersbury park which is nearby as well a play with them in our fenced communal garden. There are plenty of open, green spaces where I live so the dog will have an abundance of space to run around and play with other dogs too.

The only thing I'd need to know about a dog is if they have any special needs or the dog is not yet toilet trained, also the dog's temperament with other dogs.
