Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, caring and dog obsessed!
My family have had dogs for most of my life and I currently have a 2 year old goldador. Some family members have cats which they ask me to look after from time to time at their home since they are quite anxious cats and don't like moving much. Whenever I have been asked to look after a pet I have prioritised their needs, followed any instructions on specific care they required such as providing medication and have kept the owners updated daily. When walking dogs I put their needs first e.g., if it's a hot day I plan a route early morning or later in the evening, more shaded routes where, preferably, there's a water source for them to immerse themselves in and any roads so to avoid burning paws. I also ensure I pack for the route: plenty of water and some tasty treats! I am also first aid trained for dogs so you're dog will be in great hands should anything go awry.

Savina was wonderful with my husky, especially during the heat. They showed great knowledge including first aid for dogs and I was kept up to date with photos, I felt so at ease! I would highly recommend Savina and definitely would book again :) thank you x

Schedule
I'm available for boarding on weekends starting from Friday afternoons to Sunday evenings. I typically go into the peak district but I'm happy to go for more frequent shorter walks in more local parks if that suits your dog more. Sometimes we go for days out somewhere different for example to National Trust sites since most of them allow dogs! Let me know if your dog isn't comfortable with car rides and I can happily plan walks that don't require the car! If your dog is comfortable with car rides I have a back seat liner/hammock with a seatbelt for dogs to clip to their collar / harness.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and a friendly golden / labrador cross called Leo to keep your fur baby company! I can easily crate your dog if needed or if you have a bed or crate that they are more comfortable with then I'm happy to use it to make my home more accommodating. Leo has lots of toys that he is always sharing which we rotate through to keep them exciting. Though we don't let dogs upstairs, they're allowed on furniture in the living room and we provide blankets to make them comfortable, toilet breaks every few hours, unless the weather is nicer and the garden door is open for them to come in and out as they please, and plenty of water at all times. I also carry a dog first aid kit in the car just in case.
Pets
A typical day
For daycare during the work week I tend to go for walks a bit more local as I have work but will take breaks to play with the dogs and let them in the garden. During walks I try to get a combination of physical and mental exercise - scent training using treats or scent bags, and practicing tricks! We often walk in parks that have quite a few other dogs so they are able to socialise and play together.
