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 two years, varying in duration from 1 night to 3+ weeks. 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.

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!

We had an extended stay away from our cat and two dogs so it was important that we had the right support in place while we were away. We booked Miriam through Rover.com and were delighted with the whole process from start to finish. We initially met Miriam before our holiday, introduced her to our pets and talked her through all she needed to know during her stay. Her rapport and communication was excellent throughout, she regularly provided updates and anything that she needed to draw our attention to. We would thoroughly recommend Miriam and look forward to working with her in the future.

Miriam is absolutely incredible and we are so glad we have found her! We got married recently and didn't want the stress of our small dog Kiki for the entire event and weekend, so booked Miriam a while ago. Since then we have had need of someone to look after Kiki when we are at work, and have booked Miriam at short notice for a few days to help out. This was our first experience of getting a dog sitter, but Miriam was great from the moment she arrived. She asked a load of questions about care, and got to know Kiki, she made sure everything was done exactly how we wanted it and how was best for Kiki, and since the first time she came, Kiki has been thrilled to see her each time. For the 5 day booking, Miriam sent photos regularly and looked after Kiki so well that I think Kiki was sad we returned! We will be continuing to book Miriam without question in the future because she is an absolute delight, and incredibly good!
