Lifelong Dog Lover Of All Sizes
I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a home that always had dogs, my parents had a Westland Terrier as well as two Border Terriers after, my grandad had a range of big dogs but mostly German Shepherds, and I've had Aunties and Uncles who's dogs have ranged from a Yorkshire Terrier to Boxers. I've looked after them all, caring for pets is second nature to me. I have hands-on, everyday experience managing dogs of various breeds, sizes, and energy levels. In my professional life, I work as an administrative assistant. This means I am naturally organized, highly punctual, and a clear communicator. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, which is why I prioritize keeping owners updated with regular notes and plenty of photos during walks or drop-ins!

Safety, trust & environment
As a dedicated dog owner myself—currently sharing my home with a wonderfully energetic Corgi—I know firsthand how much love, structure, and attention our pets need daily. When caring for your dog, my goal is to maintain their exact routine in an environment where they feel safe, secure, and completely at ease. In Your Home: Respect & Security: I treat your home with total care. I double-check that all doors, gates, and entry points are locked before leaving, and I follow any instructions regarding alarm systems or house rules. Custom Care Routine: I strictly follow your feeding, medication (if applicable), and comfort instructions so your pet experiences zero stress while you are away. Out on Walks: Leash Safety First: I keep dogs securely on-leash unless we are in a fully enclosed, private area specified by you. Environmental Awareness: Corgis are naturally alert, so I am very used to keeping an eye on our surroundings! Weather Considerations: I adjust walk intensity and duration based on the weather— we stay in the shade and I'll have water with me during summer and are wiped clean during wet months.

Schedule
Working in TV broadcasting means my schedule isn't your standard 9-to-5! I frequently have Mondays through Wednesdays completely free and regularly work from home on other weekdays. This gives me fantastic midweek flexibility—whether your pup needs a midday walk to break up the day, an energetic park run, or a drop-in visit while you're at the office.
