Fun, cuddles and a lot of attention guaranteed
Pet care experience
Hello. My name is Pavla and I am a huge dog, and other pets, lover! I work from home full time and enjoy having a fur friend with me as I just enjoy dog's company, and it's a bonus that it helps the owners as well. As a previous dog owner myself, I appreciate the one-to-one approach as an alternative to kennels, as they are not suitable for all dogs. Your pup will have loads of fun, will be well taken care of, and more often than not, will be in danger of not being returned as I tend to fall in love with them all! I am available, as per my calendar, for day care and house-sitting (as long as I can work at the same time - strong connection needed). Due to my work commitments and housing set up (I currently live in a shared house), I am unfortunately unable to offer walking services, drop in visits and boarding right now. I have only just moved to the area so excited to explore all the different places for the best walks, iclusing driving further afield for a little adventure and a change of scenery. If you have any special requirements and needs, please, do ask as I can be flexible and make ammendments to accommodate accordingly. I have grown up with dogs of different sizes, breeds and backgrounds. I have lived and socialised with dogs as different as a chihuahua and a bernese mountain and anyone in between, including cocker spaniels, corgies, mixed breeds, border terriers, retrievers, dachshounds, pitties and staffies, german shepherds and even an elderly saint bernard. I am currently working towards gaining certification in animal welfare and dog training techniques and plan on continuing to take more courses regularly to work towards a full dog training/ behaviouralist qualification. Please do ask any questions you may have. I would love to meet you and your pet for a free, informal meet and greet as I believe every pet chooses their human and you don't know if a match is a good one until you see your dog and a person interacting in real life. Looking forward to meeting you soon 🙂
Reviews
Can't recommend Pavla enough! She has looked after the dogs in our home on a couple of occasions and is kind, thoughtful, reliable and capable. The house is always tidy on my return and she sends lovely update photos and videos of the dogs.
Pavla did a great job of looking after our boys. Letting us know what they were up to and getting pictures of two happy boys . We are very grateful to Pavla for taking good care of them.
Pavla was a welcomed comfort for the dogs and so they could remain at home whilst we were on holiday. The dogs loved their walks and time snuggled up after by the looks of the photos and Pavla was great at keeping us in the loop with both dogs and house (especially as we had a storm) so went above and beyond doing checks for us. Would throughly recommend Pavla.
It was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family so I was a bit nervous but I shouldn’t have been. Pavla was brilliant with my dog! My boy has IBD and was having a flare up at the time and Pavla took it all in her stride, giving him his medications on time and preparing his meals exactly how he needs them. She adapted his daily schedule around the unusually hot weather so that he wasn’t too warm and even took him on little adventures. Pavla is great at providing updates and sends lots of pictures which I loved. I would gladly use Pavla’s pet sitting again and I’m sure my dog can’t wait to see her again!
About Pavla S.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always got through your routine, habits and safety measures at the Meet and Greet. I follow the owner's preferences and routine put in place as closely as possible. Including traveling in a car, on/ off leash walks etc.
Information Pavla S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they are house trained and what commands they are used to. Any allergies, health issues, dietary requirements. Also, if the owner would like their pet to be socialised with other dogs and if they tend to chase after other animals, especially sheep, deer or hare etc. when out for a walk.
A typical day
Frequency and length of walks to be discussed with each owner so their care package can be tailored to their pet individually. I am at home full time so I am fully flexible and adapt to your own routine.
