Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover offering walks and stays
I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them my whole life — from having my own dog as a child to regularly looking after pets for friends and family. I’m experienced in extended home stays, feeding routines, and keeping dogs comfortable and happy in a familiar, home environment. I offer drop-in visits, daytime walks, and short-term home stays — ideal if your dog needs company during the day or somewhere warm and welcoming while you’re away. I have a calm home and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Your pet will always feel at ease with me.

Ratings and reviews
Polina was very good with our cats, she was friendly and caring. We highly recommend her. Thank you Polina.
I had a great experience with Polina. Communication was very easy from the beginning, and she was always attentive and responsive. She took the time to ask about my pet’s routine and preferences, which really reassured me that she genuinely cared about making them feel comfortable and well looked after. She also kept me updated by sending regular photos, which was lovely and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated her thoughtful and caring approach and would happily recommend her!
Polina was very reliable and sent twice daily updates. My usually shy cat seemed to be quite happy to be with her, and to allow her to brush him, so he clearly felt comfortable with her. Thank you Polina!
Polina is a caring, responsible and a reliable pet sitter, she instantly clicked with my senior cat and provided me with peace of mind while we were away.
Big thank you to Polina for taking care of Shosha! We will definitely be back 🫶🏻
Polina was great with my dog Milly ! She asked all the relevant questions about food, walkies, medication. She provided me with regular updates and photos. I will definitely leave Milly with her next time.

Schedule
I work as an architect, splitting my time between the office and working from home, so I’m around most of the week and never doing long, stressful hours. On my work-from-home days I’m based at my desk and happy to have a pet alongside me. I can offer walks, drop-ins and day care during the week, with good flexibility around timing.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Here’s the updated version: My flat in Brook Green is calm, quiet and comfortable — a peaceful base where your dog can properly relax and feel at home. There’s no garden, but we’re moments from two local greens and larger parks within 20 minutes, giving plenty of opportunity for walks, exploration and exercise. Your dog will never be left alone, and when we’re not out adventuring they’ll have space to play, snooze wherever they’re happiest, and receive all the attention they deserve. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay.
A typical day
We’ll start with a good walk to the local greens or a nearby park, with time to sniff, explore and stretch their legs properly. Back at the flat there’ll be playtime, plenty of fuss and calm company whenever they want it. I like to follow your dog’s lead — some days that means more activity, others it means a quiet afternoon on the sofa together.

- The more I know about your dog beforehand the better I can care for them. Please do share their daily routine, how they are around other dogs and people, anything that tends to worry them, and any behaviours you’d rather I didn’t encourage at home. Feeding schedules, walk requirements and any medical needs are all useful to know from the start.
