Pet care experience
Your trusted pet whisperer
If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I'm absolutely obsessed with animals🐶💕 I've spent years caring for, training, and bonding with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, from my friends’ and family’s pups to those I meet in everyday life. In my free time, I study pet psychology, which has deepened my understanding of canine behavior, emotions, and needs. I naturally connect with dogs and can quickly sense what they want—whether it’s playtime, a long walk, or just some comforting companionship. Now that I’m a freelancer, I’m excited to turn my passion into a profession, offering loving, attentive, and knowledgeable care for your furry best friend. Whether you need a sitter, a walker, or just someone to give your pup extra attention, I’m here to help! Let’s chat and see how I can make your dog’s day happier! 🐾💛

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I am a highly responsible and intuitive caregiver who understands dogs' emotions, needs, and body language. My experience in pet psychology helps me create a calm, safe, and stress-free environment, ensuring that every dog in my care feels secure and comfortable. I stay attentive and proactive, always making thoughtful decisions to keep your pet safe—whether on walks, during playtime, or at home. You can trust me to provide reliable, loving, and professional care for your furry companion.
Ratings and reviews
We can’t praise Merrily highly enough. Bobby and Archie loved her. Thank you rover.com and biggest thank you to Merrily.


We are so pleased we found Merrily and she was available to look after Dotty. From the outset when she had her first meet and greet with Dotty we could tell she was going to put her needs first and was an absolute delight to deal with. Merrily sent regular updates and took Dotty on all sorts of adventures; it was one of the first holidays I have taken as a pet owner where I have had zero worries about leaving. Would thoroughly recommend working with Merrily.

Merrily is so good with our two cats!! She looks after them so well and her updates are really clear and detailed. We will definitely book with her again if we can!
Merrily is an amazing person who truly adores our cat. She managed to build a wonderful bond with our furry friend, and now they are the best friends! Her care and affection made all the difference, and we couldn’t be happier with her service. We highly recommend Merrily to anyone looking for a dedicated and loving cat-sitter!

Merrily is a hit with our cats! She has taken a lot of time out to learn how to deal with our cat’s special needs, and it’s clear she understands and loves animals. We also had a lot of communication and photo/video updates during the weekend house sitting for us which was reassuring. Thank you so much!


Merrily was so so lovely and caring! Our pets were so loved whilst we were away and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She took our dog out for regular walks and cuddled with the cats. She was great with communication and gave regular updates. I would highly recommend her as a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
