Animal lover since birth

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of dogs/cats since I was a young kid having family dogs from birth up til now at 22. Dealt with dogs of varying sizes from a little Poodle to an English Mastiff, taking care of, feeding, walking twice daily since I can remember.

Sandro was brilliant with Scrappy, who obviously bonded well with him. He was very tolerant of Scrappy's foibles and needs. Thank you for looking after my pup so well!

Our two very different dogs stayed with Sandro for three nights when we had to travel to Scotland for a family funeral. This meant we had to scramble to find a sitter at quite short notice. One of our dogs can be anxious with unfamiliar men and showed this at two other boarders' houses we visited, so we did worry about leaving them in an all-male household. But Sandro has an amazing way with dogs which meant ours were calmer with him than usual from the start. Our elderly dog was entirely chilled throughout her stay, and our 'worrier', though still a little wary, stayed obedient and calm. I have to say, Sandro has a real gift with dogs of all kinds which many people *think* they have, but actually don't when it comes to reactive ones! The location's not great and the garden was a bit overgrown when we were there, but dogs don't care at all about things like that, and I was very grateful to Sandro for keeping us in touch including a photo.

Sandro has been great with our excitable lab. Communication was a little less frequent than we were used to, but we also didn't ask him for any more and I'm sure he would have happily sent extra updates on request. Scooby has come home well looked after and happy. Definitely using again!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a house with my roommate (also a big dog lover) with a fenced garden at the back and plenty of room for any size of dog to roam in the house. Im comfortable feeding, walking and basically anything with dogs whether staying in my home or elsewhere. I don't currently have any pets living with me as i've moved away from home so any pets that can be difficult with others are also welcome with me. I do take multiple dogs in my home at the same time however I have no issues with keeping dogs in my home completely separate if necessary!

Information Sandro d. would like to know about your pet

I'm accepting of all different types of dog but some key things i'd always like to know are: -How your pet gets along with other animals on walks etc -If your pet enjoys a lot of exercise or just to chill -Overall pet temperament as I'm used to and have had pets that can be more aggressive but knowing about your pets quirks is important

A typical day

I've moved to Southampton only a year ago and I'm yet to fully explore all the surrounding areas so this will be a big part of my day with them whether its the main park or down along the river Itchen. I also live in a decently sized home with plenty of space to play with your pet or out in the fenced back garden.
