Reliable, experienced and friendly animal lover
Pet care experience
I have signed up to Rover.com as I love being in the company of animals. I have over four years' experience cat sitting, dog walking and house/dog sitting for families/individuals on Rover. In addition, I have over 25 years' experience caring for my own pets including cats, dogs, chickens, guinea pigs and rabbits. My longest dog sit was a three-month stint looking after a range of pets including two cats, a dog and chickens for a family in Australia. I am reliable, trustworthy and caring. I am also very fit, like hiking and walking, and run marathons for fun so rest assured your dogs will be getting a decent workout when they go walking with me. In addition to dog walking, dog sitting and house sitting, I am a qualified nutritionist and I work with school children in Ealing on nutrition projects. I mostly work from home and I'm also studying a master's in public health so am usually home a lot on weekends doing assignments which is great if your dog/s like lots of company. I mostly dog sit, dog walk and can also do drop-in for people with cats.

Safety, trust & environment
When dog sitting in someone's home, I am also very careful about what dogs eat - only dog food unless specified, and regularly change the dog's water bowl. I wash dog food bowls twice daily. When on dog walks, I always keep dogs on a lead and only allow them off the lead after several walks and at the owner's approval. I think cuddle time is important, especially if dogs are missing their owners. I usually try to spend a few hours every evening watching TV with dogs I am sitting and to also spend time grooming and playing with them. I will replicate your existing walking schedules, which is usually two walks up to one hour each.
Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know the age and breed of your dog, and time they can be left alone. Please also let me know of any medications they are on.
A typical day
Under my care, I will be taking your dog for walks and/or runs in Ealing parks including Gunnersbury park, Lammas and Walpole park. I can also play games with your dog including ball games.

Availability
I'm currently working mostly every day from home (excluding the odd meeting in schools or at the office). I am attending lectures on Wednesdays at university from 10am to 5pm. Therefore, if you request a dog sit in a period that falls includes a Wednesday and your dog can't be left alone that long and you still want to use my service, I'm happy to deduct the cost of a daytime dog walker or drop-in service from my fee (up to £15). I'm usually home a lot of the weekends as I use my weekends to complete my masters' assignments.
