Pet care experience

Friendly & insured lunchtime visits

I’m a dog mum to Maple, my 2 year old Cockapoo, who I’ve had since she was a puppy. We love getting out for walks, exploring new places and spending time together. Having cared for Maple from puppyhood has given me plenty of hands on experience with the excitement that comes with a young dog! I’ve always loved animals and have been lucky enough to spend lots of time around them over the years. For a couple of years I lived with four lovely senior Golden Retrievers which also gave me experience of being around older dogs with very different needs and personalities. As well as dogs, I’ve cared for cats rabbits and guinea pigs, and I’m very happy to provide drop in care for cats and other small pets too. I appreciate it is important to feel completely comfortable with the person looking after your pet and being trusted with access to someone’s home. I’ll always treat your pets with the same care, patience and attention I’d want someone to give Maple. I’m fully insured and work from home, which allows me to offer reliable 30 minute weekday lunchtime drop in visits around Hinckley. Visits can include toilet breaks, fresh food and water, playtime and plenty of fuss and attention, depending on your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also send you a photo and update so you know how they’re getting on.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s routine is my priority. During every 30 minute visit I’ll provide a toilet break, fresh water, feeding if required, plenty of attention and play, and I’ll send you a photo and update through Rover before I leave. I’m fully insured and I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own.

I have two dogs and one guinea pig and Philippa has helped me out multiple times by dropping in when I’ve been out the house all day. She was very friendly and gave updates on the pets when she came over - thanks Philippa!

"I have known Phillipa for a long time, and I can truly say she is a natural with animals. She is kind, reliable, and deeply caring. Whenever she is around dogs, she pays close attention to their unique personalities and needs. I have always trusted her completely, and I know any dog in her care will be safe, happy, and loved. I recommend Phillipa without any hesitation to anyone looking for a wonderful dog walker or sitter."

Philippa is wonderful with dogs and always shows great patience, care and understanding. She looks after our dog Otso regularly and it's clear how much they enjoy spending time with her. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with Philippa.

Philippa has been great whilst looking after Otso. She always takes the time to listen to her needs and she sets clear expectations of what she will be doing. Her contact is great and she will share updates and if she has any questions will clarify before doing anything. She is very amenable and is always willing to go out of her way to ensure my dog is happy. Although my dog can be cautious of new people and takes time to warm up but she was very quickly at home with Philippa and is always excited when she is cared for.
