Dog loving,retired lady looking for furry friends

Pet care experience

Since retiring a few years ago I have channeled my pet loving energies into caring for various breeds of cats and dogs of all ages.The safety and happiness of them being my priority,whilst ensuring he/she receives stimulation and exercise tailored to their individual needs and the owner’s instructions. Experience has shown me that the optimum place to care for your pet is in his/her own home in a familiar and secure environment. Over the years I have had my own cats and dogs,Patterdale terrier and a lurcher. As I currently have no pets of my own yours will have my undivided attention,love and care he/she requires. References are available from owners of pets who I have cared for on housesits,if requested

Yesterday was the first time Sheila looked after Maisie for us and what a wonderful job she did! She really listened to us regarding Maisie needs and preferences and kept us up to-date with how she was doing throughout the day. We were so pleased that she enjoyed Maisie’s personality and that she was considerate and kind to her. Whippets can be sensitive souls! She had a lovely long walk and came back to us tired and happy. We especially appreciated that Sheila gave Maisie time to watch and observe things as this is so good for her. We find she needs to exercise her brain as much as her body to be a happy girl. Thank you soooo much Sheila!!

Thank you so much for taking such good care of Harvey. It was great to know he was being fussed over. Would definitely recommend leaving dogs in your care, we are so grateful and he is so content

Sheila and Phil were amazing with Tommy. Since he is an active dog - they took him for a long walk which he loved. Tommy settled in with them quickly, which shows how comfortable they made him feel. Sheila also sent plenty of updates and photos. Will definitely be using Sheila in the future - she is trustworthy and really cares for dogs! Thank you!

A typical day

The day would be tailored to meet your dog’s needs and exercise levels. The woods nearby have a maze of paths therefore walks can be as long or as short as is required. Similarly with the canal towpath the length of walk can be modified to suit. It also permits swimming ball/stick throwing or running alongside the bike if appropriate
