Availability

I am currently on a sabbatical and am available full time for pet care. My schedule is usually: breakfast, morning walk, playtime at home, longer afternoon walk followed by a snooze for tired puppies, dinner, evening walk and then often more playtime or snoozing depending on the dogs energy. In hot weather I keep my apartment cool and breezy, avoid walking in high temperatures and provide enrichment activities at home to keep busy minds engaged!

Information Pippa M. would like to know about your pet

- What is your dog motivated by? - Do they have any favourite ways to play? - Any essential medical info e.g allergies - Any reactivity and what the stimulus is - Feeding & toileting schedule

A typical day

I have lots of toys which are suitable for smaller dogs & puppies. These include soft toys, balls, chew toys and puzzle toys. My chihuahua Rhubarb is very playful and she proactively engages other dogs in games with toys, playing chase and wrestling! There is also space for quiet time and rest, with locations in the house perfect to snuggle up in for a nap. I typically take the dogs to locations where there is a safe and secure dog run to play in e.g Ropemakers Fields park and Bartlett Park. It is a great opportunity to meet and greet other dogs and play together in the outdoors. I can also work on exposure for puppies and reactive dogs e.g bus travel, walks along busy roads as requested.

Pet care experience

Chihuahua’s and smaller dogs often feel unsure around larger dogs but can blossom in confidence around dogs their own size! That’s why I decided to offer doggy daycare, walks and sitting services especially for those on the smaller end of the spectrum. As I have a chihuahua myself, I am experienced on their particular needs and personality traits. My home has lots of appropriately sized toys, treats and places to nap in. I have experience with working with reactive dogs and dogs with behavioural difficulties. If your dog does have any of these issues then please do disclose to me in advance so I can be aware of any potential triggers. I will follow any feeding plan and am experienced in administering medication in powdered or tablet form. Walks generally take place around Poplar and Bow where your dog will be able to meet other dogs and experience key situations for socialisation e.g joggers, cyclists, children, prams etc. Our favourite walkies location is Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park which is perfect for dogs who love a good sniff 🐕 As a pet owner myself I really worry about my dog when we aren’t together and know how comforting photos of your dog having a nice time or looking relaxed and cosy are. I always take lots of photos to send to owners and am happy to keep you updated as often as you need to feel comfortable. If you have any questions then please do feel free to ask!

Really amazing job, obviously loves animals and really cares about them. Would definitely ask her to visit again, if she’ll come back😂

First time Pippa took care of Onyx and I couldn't be happier. Although apparently Onyx was even happier and kept trying to trick her for belly rubs 😆

Pippa was great! She took great care of Oscar, taking extra precautions as it was a very hot day, and kept me really well updated throughout. Would definitely recommend Pippa and would happily book again😊

Piper went above and beyond while looking after Bhimji. She groomed him far more than I expected, handled any issues that came up without hesitation, and even gave him an extra spot-on treatment at no extra cost. She was always quick to respond to messages and sent plenty of photos and updates every day, which gave me real peace of mind. The best sign of all was how sad Bhimji was to leave her—he clearly had an amazing time! I wouldn't hesitate to book Piper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
