Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately my home isn’t somewhere that I would be able to care for your pets as I live in a top floor flat, with no outside area to cater for dogs/cats. Although, at your home I will always abide by the rules for keeping your pets safe and secure. Adjusting well to new environments, I will reassure your pets with keeping everything in your home the way it should be and sticking to their schedule of activities (their time outside, feeding and more).

Information Poppy S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any clear problems that I need to be aware of (special needs, illnesses or difficulties when outside), just so I am ready and can prepare to take care of them.

A typical day

I love being active with dogs and taking them on long and high energy walks. Playing fetch and running with them throughout a park or down the beach is the best of fun.

Location

Westcliff-on-Sea, United Kingdom

Poppy S.'s Neighborhood

Young and motivated animal lover.

Pet care experience

Since I was a child, I’ve always been surrounded by family and friends’ pets, taking care of them as if they’re my own. From that I gained a natural love of caring for all dogs/cats. I’ve looked after many dogs, from two adventurous Newfoundlands to dainty and humble Cockapoos. My young energy is paired well with playful pups, however I’ve always been complimented for my laid-back attitude which is suited for less spirited, older dogs. I have had 3 years of trained experience, but most of my life casually caring for pooches. My cousin suggested this app to me, as she believes I’m a top dog sitter and I have the skills/ability necessary for the role. My skills vary from training puppies, walking (young/old) dogs, keeping them healthy, cleaning, following owners instructions, sticking to a feeding schedule and nurturing them always.

Poppy was great with Bear. And we felt comfortable knowing that she was there looking after our little girl.

Poppy took care of Mumin for the first time when I had a medical procedure. She’s a really lovely and friendly lady who clearly loves animals. I really appreciate her help with my little Mumin. Thank you again, Poppy ❤️

Poppy was so great with our Staffy, Daphne. She house/dog sat for us for 3 days and we came back to a very content dog! Daphne is a nervous walker and Poppy went out of to ensure Daphne was comfortable. Thanks so much Poppy!
