Pet care is woven into my everyday life. As an experienced fosterer who's looked after over 40 rescue dogs, I've built my home and routine around making dogs feel safe, understood, and loved. From morning walks to evening cuddles, caring for dogs isn't something I squeeze in — it's part of how I live. My week naturally includes quiet time, play, structure, and patience, which helps each dog settle in and thrive. Whether I’m working from home or managing life’s logistics, their comfort and wellbeing are always considered.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for a dog in my own home or stepping into theirs, I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment that helps them feel safe and settled. In my home, dogs join a structured, dog-friendly routine with walks, rest, play, and gentle boundaries — shaped by years of fostering over 40 rescue dogs. I keep things clean, secure, and emotionally attuned to each dog's personality. In the owner’s home, I follow their routines with care and respect, maintaining familiarity so their dog feels relaxed and looked-after. I take the time to understand what comforts them — from favourite toys to quirky habits — and I always send regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease.

Information Sarita L. would like to know about your pet

it’s important to know their daily routine, health needs, and temperament from the start. Find out their usual meal times, walk preferences, sleep arrangements, and any medical issues or vet contacts. Understanding their quirks—like fears of thunder or dislike of certain dogs—helps you prep and avoid surprises. Ask about the commands they respond to, social habits (whether they're a playful pup or a solo explorer), and what comforts them most, from favourite toys to quiet spaces. Knowing boundaries like whether they guard toys or sleep on furniture can prevent awkward moments. It’s also helpful to have the owner’s contact details, emergency plans, and trusted local backups so everything runs smoothly and safely. Taking time to gather these details means you can create a reassuring, calm environment that feels familiar to the pet—and that builds trust with their owner too.

A typical day

Every dog’s idea of fun is different, and I love discovering what makes each tail wag. Whether it’s a game of fetch in the garden, a sniff-filled walk in nature, or chilled puzzle toys indoors, I make sure each dog gets the right mix of play and downtime. For energetic dogs, I offer active games, dog-friendly adventures, or enrichment tasks that keep their minds busy. For the gentler souls, it might be cuddle time, slow strolls, and familiar toys. I’ve cared for over 40 foster dogs of all shapes and temperaments, so I’m pretty intuitive at reading what each dog needs to feel safe, stimulated, and truly happy.

Home-from-home dog care by a rescue volunteer

Pet care experience

With over 40 foster dogs welcomed into my home, I've seen it all — the shy, the cheeky, the anxious, and the boisterous — and I’ve loved every single tail-wagging moment. I'm not just a sitter; I’m a long-time dog fosterer for a respected rescue charity, offering dogs safety, calm, and the kind of care that helps them blossom. What sets me apart? I understand dogs on a deeper level — their quirks, their signals, and what helps them feel safe. I provide a home-from-home experience with gentle boundaries, belly rubs, and routines that give both dogs and their humans peace of mind. Whether it’s a nervous first-timer or a seasoned cuddle monster, your dog will be in patient, loving hands. I'm reliable, emotionally intuitive, and always respectful of each dog's unique personality. Oh, and I never skimp on treats or praise — unless they’ve nicked my socks, then we negotiate.

Thank you so much for looking after Maggie! She does not like being left but we had total peace of mind whilst she was at yours and seems to have had a lovely day. See you again! 🐾

Medwyn had an amazing day. Sarita was thorough when meeting Medwyn to make sure she knew about him and his quirks. She looked after him very well and let him be a dog! We’re already booked in for another day. Thank you 😊
