Pet care experience
WFH dog lovers - walks & cuddles 🐾
I’ve always been a dog lover - growing up, my family had a schnauzer poodle who was a huge part of our lives 🐾 I moved to Edinburgh last year from Sydney, Australia, with my partner, and before relocating we regularly pet sat together. We’ve looked after a range of dogs, each with their own personalities and routines, and we genuinely love getting to know each one. It’s been such a lovely way for us to spend time with dogs while we’re not quite ready to have one of our own just yet. Because we both work from home, we’re able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day as well as make sure they get out for regular walks and breaks. We really enjoy having them around and making sure they feel happy, safe and settled.

Ratings and reviews
Thankyou Michaela and Keryn for taking such good care of Ruby. She has obviously had a great time and is very settled coming back home. I will definitely feel happy leaving her in your care again
Michaela and Keryn are just fabulous. I’m always nervous leaving Cash but not anymore! Lovely couple who took time to understand Cash’s needs as well as getting to know me. Wouldn’t hesitate booking them again to look after our old boy.
Michaela and Keryn looked after Nara for 4 nights while we were on holiday. They were great at keeping in contact with me, providing updates on how Nara was getting on and sending lovely pictures. They were really brilliant with Nara, they took her out to the park multiple times for a run around with her toy stick and kept her cool during the unexpected heat wave. They both have lots of experience caring for dogs and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a superb dog sitter. Nara will be very excited to see them again soon!
Michaela and Keryn are highly recommended as pet sitters. They are reliable, trustworthy, and caring, and will have your pet's best interests at heart. They are both huge animal lovers and have good experience with minding dogs and cats at different life stages. You can have peace of mind that your pet will be in the best of hands!

Schedule
We both typically work from home 3-4 days a week so pet care fits really naturally into our routine. We’ll be around throughout the day to keep dogs company, let them out regularly, and take them on walks. We’re happy to adapt to each dog’s routine as well. We also have flexibility with our schedules so if we’re caring for a dog we can make sure someone is home for the entire length of their stay to make sure they have plenty of company.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
At home, we aim to make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. We live in an apartment with a secure, fenced shared garden downstairs which is great for quick toilet breaks and some fresh air in between walks. We’re also close to Inverleith Park for longer walks.
