Pet care experience

Reliable, trusted high quality care

DBS checked. I provide reliable, home based dog care in your home or mine, including sitting, boarding, daycare, and walking, tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes from a young age, with experience ranging from newborn puppies and energetic young dogs to older dogs requiring a calmer, more attentive approach. I hold a Level 3 CPD Award in Veterinary Support Assistance, with training in animal handling, first aid, health awareness, and emergency situations, allowing me to prioritise safety and wellbeing in every booking. Dogs in my care benefit from a calm, structured environment with access to quiet walking routes and open countryside, ideal for both exercise and relaxed time. Experienced with active dogs who enjoy longer countryside walks and consistent outdoor exercise throughout the year. Confident handling high energy breeds who require structured exercise and stimulation. I work fulltime in a professional role and bring that same reliability, organisation, and communication to my dog care. Owners can expect consistency, regular updates, and a dependable service they can trust. I’m particularly suited to owners looking for regular, longterm care or a safe, stable home environment while they are away.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment where dogs can relax and feel secure. I ensure all spaces are safe, clean, and free from hazards, and I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, and any medication requirements. Dogs are always supervised and kept secure during walks, with careful attention to their behaviour and surroundings. I also provide regular updates so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away.

Rachel was amazing with Neville, helped with specific needs due to Neville recently having an injury! So conscientious and went above and beyond! Couldn’t recommend Rachel enough!

Dog Walking • May 27, 2025

What an insightful caring walker Rachel is. We are looking to add a couple of people to the roster of dog walkers close to Brian and Rachel provided a terrific and engaging route for Brian over the hour he spent with her. We hope Brian will spend more time with Rachel over the coming weeks and months.

Schedule

I plan my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I provide consistent care throughout the day, including morning walks, daytime exercise and stimulation, and evening wind-down time. I’m flexible and adjust my routine depending on each dog’s usual schedule and energy levels. My focus is on keeping routines as familiar and stress free as possible so dogs feel settled and comfortable during their stay.

It is helpful for owners to share any details about their dog’s routine, behaviour, medical needs, and preferences before their stay. This includes feeding schedules, walking habits, reactivity, or any triggers I should be aware of. I am experienced with dogs of different temperaments, but clear communication helps ensure each dog receives the best possible care and a smooth, stress free experience.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
