Experienced dog boarder
Pet care experience
Hi. I am 44 years old; I have no pets of my own and live in Chesterfield. I used to board dogs in my own house (using Rover), but I now live in a flat so boarding is not doable due to the rules of tenancy. I love all animals and have experience with caring for a lot of pets including cats, rabbits, hamsters and even a tortoise! In particular, I have lots of experience caring for dogs. I am passionate about caring for your pet to a high standard and keeping you updated as much as you prefer, so you enjoy your holiday knowing your fluffy family are in the best hands. I have very high standards of care and personal responsibility. I have house & pet sat in the past, mainly for people I know. If we are a good fit for each other, we will probably have a more flexible relationship and maybe some last-minute cover. Previously, I was a full-time Police officer in Sheffield for 14 years but left to find more freedom as a freelance web designer so as long as I have a wifi connection, I can work anywhere. Any checks welcomed. Because of my other self-employed work, I possess a valid DBS certificate (Police check), and data controllers license from the information commissioner’s office, which I am open to sharing with you. I have a certificate of my Police service if you would like to see it. Feel free to get in touch for a chat to begin with. I insist on a meet and greet prior to a booking. I generally only book up to 3 months in advance.
Reviews
Scott boarded our beagle for a couple of nights while we were away. We couldn't be happier with how it went. We received regular updates during the stay and our pup clearly had a great time. Would recommend and would happily use Scott again next time we need a sitter.
Wilf has just looked after my very anxious 'rescue' dog Wilf and I can highly recommend him. He met Wilf prior to the stay at his home and answered all my questions and asked me all about Wilf which I found reassuring. He is a 'natural' with dogs and Wilf had obviously enjoyed his stay. I have already booked him again and am very happy with his excellent service. Thank-you Scott from Dawn a happy owner and Wilf.
Thank you so much to Scott for staying with Milo! It was Milo’s first time boarding and we think it was great. Scott is very caring and Milo had amazing time staying at Scott’s. He regularly sent us pictures and an update too, which was very good. When we were picking Milo up we have found him happy, fit and active and it’s all thanks to Scott. Definitely choosing Scott next we will need. Milo’s family
I would highly recommend Scott to dog sit your fur baby. Scott sent regular updates to put our mind at ease, was very easy to contact and we could see that Beaux settled, before having a lovely stay. Will 100% be booking again! ☺️
About Scott E.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat people's dogs like I would treat my own. I never let them off the lead. Further precautions can depend on the dog and their specific needs. I have experienced with snappy dogs, nervous and other issues.
Information Scott E. would like to know about your pet
I could do with knowing about any special requirements you have, mobility issues your dog may have, any medical issues and any issues you have when walking them.
A typical day
I walk them where you want me to and different routes if I can. We can play with toys but only when on the lead.
Services
Scott can watch in your home
Availability
I work mostly virtually but may need to pop out for the occasional meeting or shopping. So, your pets will need to be ok being left for a few hours, as most dogs are. If not, you will need to contact me to discuss.
