Availability

I'm happy to travel for longer bookings, as I especially love to be in the countryside. If you live in a rural location, don't hesitate to contact me! I have a flexible schedule as I'm self-employed as a pet sitter, alongside creating art and music. Any bookings I accept will take priority and generally I can spend most of the time at home, keeping your pets company.

Safety, trust & environment

It's an honour to be trusted to stay in someone's home and look after their furry family members, and I don’t take it lightly. I'm very responsible and respectful and will treat your home and pets as if they were my own. Any instructions will be closely followed to ensure your pets and property are safe and secure. I'll send you updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Information Miriam G. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know about your pets personalities, their usual routine, and if they have any medical or behaviourial issues. I'd also like to know their main likes and dislikes so I can keep them feeling calm and happy.

A typical day

I always ask about your pets usual routine so I can keep things comfortable and familiar for them. I'll make sure they get the amount of exercise they are used to. Long walks are right up my street and can include off-lead play if that's suitable for your dog. At home there'll be plenty of time for cuddles, and also periods of play when they feel like it. I'm a laid-back person and happy to fit in with their habits.

Dog's Best Friend!

Pet care experience

I'm an experienced pet sitter and fully insured. I've done many sits over the last three years, varying in duration from 1 night to 1 month. I've looked after various breeds of dogs and cats from big to small, old to young, and I love spending time with them all! I'm a patient and calm person which helps the animals I care for feel more relaxed while their owners are away. Each one becomes a precious pal as I take the time to learn about their habits and preferences and build a relationship with them. I'm organised, reliable and will always strive to keep your pet happy and healthy.

Again fabulous from Miriam G. Sadly we didn't see her this time but had messaged during the time. Lexie was very happy. Lexie had plenty of exercise as well. Great service from Miriam and the house was spot on. I just texted her when we landed and said we be back in an hour but get on your way. Definitely will use Miriam again when the need arises Julian and Lexie

Miriam is absolutely brilliant. Our do, 2 cats and fish were well looked after and happy. Our dog is reactive to other dogs and Miriam was great with him, not phased at all, confident and walked him without issue. There was a problem with my fish tank while I was away and Miriam let me know and got it sorted really quickly. Did not feel worried or anxious at all leaving my pets in her care and she left the house spotless. Would definitely rebook again with confidence

Miriam is a reliable, kind and friendly person, this is her second time looking after our dog and she brings so much peace and calm. She is very good with dogs, and pays them so much attention and is thoughtful too. Miriam gives regular photo updates and is a joy to correspond with. We are so happy to have found her! We will definitely ask her to dog sit again and would recommend her. Thank you!
