Active dog Aunty
Pet care experience
** Please read my profile before sending me sit/walk requests** I am very active & only want to sit dogs I can walk & can be left for 3 hours so I can work Monday eve, Weds & Friday morning. Also so I can go to get food I do not like leaving dogs tied outside shops. I spend 70% of my time with your pets but I have to work & eat so need the 30% free time for that. I’ve walked other peoples dogs since I was about 12, I did it for pocket money as a child & because we couldn’t have our own dog. As an adult I’ve rescued whaf’s & strays & walked dogs in rescues centres as a volunteer. When my children left home & my last dog died I began to travel & work as a pet (mainly dog) & house sitter. I have been a pet sitter since 2015. I have owned Greyhounds, lurchers, Jack Russells, Rottweilers, EBT, Staffs & a few mixes. I have regular clients who I sit for a male English Mastiff, 2 Malamutes, 2 Italian Spinone, 3 French bull dogs, a miniature Pomeranian & a small mix breed. I love big dogs. Dogs seem to love me. Bull breeds are my favorite especially EBT. I am reliable, honest & very tidy. I am happy to walk dogs on-lead if they have no recall & muzzled dogs if reactive.
Reviews
First time we have had a sitter for our dogs, but our anxiety was reduced by the contact Maxine made with us, keeping us up to speed about them. On our return our home was left immaculate and dogs were absolutely calm and settled.
Maxine has looked after our Frenchie a number of times, he’s stayed with her and she has looked after him at our home as well. She’s very fond of him, and him of her, we always feel he is well looked after with Maxine, we know he is well fed and gets plenty of walks, not to mention the constant attention! The only problem we have is we worry he prefers it with her and won’t want to come home! She is very genuine and friendly, we wouldn’t use anyone else! Highly recommend
Maxine is easily the best dog sitter we have ever had. I'm not kidding when I say that I think our dog Paddy would honestly rather live with Maxine than with us. He's a big dog, a very big dog, very friendly and Maxine is great with him and he adores her. She is responsible, caring and very professional. She always rings us if she has the slightest concern and nothing is too much trouble. I honestly cannot recommend her enough...
I can not recommend Maxine more highly. She loves dogs and has lots of experience with a variety of breeds. I think our dog prefers Maxine to us, as he gets excited if we mention her name and is always happy to be left with her. She takes great care of him and keeps gives us updates on him whilst we are away.
