Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs my whole life, from springer spaniels and jack russells, to my current little one-year-old dachshund. I absolutely love being around dogs and know how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re leaving them behind, even just for a few days.
Reviews

Mike was a great sitter. Kept us up to date and let us know when he had concerns about our fur baby’s mood or eating habits. Mike does live in an apartment so might not be suitable for larger dogs or dogs who are used to lots of garden access. But we’d happily recommend and use Mike again.

Micheal was a pleasure to deal with. Looked after Charlie very well sending regular updates and pics. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend based on our experience.

Mike was a pleasure to deal with throughout. He was responsive to all the comunication in the run up, he met up with us and Riley before the sitting and I felt he had the best interests of Riley always in mind. You could tell he was well used to dealing with dogs and he really looked after Riley. I'd highly recommend him!

Michael looked after Babel for 4 nights and he was great! Communication was very easy and he even offered to take Babel before the scheduled drop off time. His dog is very social and got on well with Babel. Michael sent many pics and videos throughout the stay and Babel was taken on many walks. An advantage of booking with Michael is that he works from home so your dog will never be left alone for too long. Would recommend 100%

My dachshund is super friendly, playful, and great with other dogs. I trained him myself and had him house trained within two months. I know how to read dogs and understand the dos and don’ts that come with looking after them.

I absolutely love being around dogs and know how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re leaving them behind, even just for a few days. I work from home, so I’m around most of the day. I usually go for one, sometimes two walks a day with my own dog, and any dog I’m minding would get the same attention. I’ll make sure they’re fed on time, feel comfortable in a new space, and have everything they need while you’re away. My dachshund is super friendly, playful, and great with other dogs. I trained him myself and had him house trained within two months. I know how to read dogs and understand the dos and don’ts that come with looking after them. I live in a two-bed apartment just outside the city centre. It’s a calm, quiet space that’s ideal for small or medium-sized dogs. I’m happy to mind larger dogs too, but they’re probably best suited for short stays rather than longer ones. It’s just me and my dog here, so your dog won’t have to deal with a busy household. If you’re heading off on a trip and want peace of mind that your dog is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of love, I’d be happy to help.
