Pet care experience

Dog lover+pampered greyhound owner

I have lived with dogs since I was 10 years old. We are a family of dog lovers and our dogs are our babies. I have now been dog sitting with my partner since November and we have cared for multiple dogs needing different levels of care. We have received multiple bookings and positive feedback from all of our clients. We have our own dog who we care for and walk every day. We have lots of ideas of dog walks and also know what it is like to care for a reactive dog as our dog can be anxious around other dogs. I provide regular updates to you as an owner as I know how important this is for you. Every dog we have cared for has become part of our family for the short time we’ve had them and we always miss them and hope to see them again soon!

Shelby and her partner looked after Diego over the weekend and were amazing! They kept me updated with photos and made us feel so at ease whilst being away for the weekend. Diego came back very happy and tail wagging - will definitley be using Shelby again 🥰

Shelby and her partner were incredible with Ava! Gave us plenty of updates and Ava was so relaxed and happy with them. Will definitely book again when we next need a dog sitter. Thanks guys.

I can’t recommend Shelby highly enough, she looked after my 2 dogs over the weekend and they have come back so happy, I got updates as to how they were doing, pictures of their walks and she also asked anything that she was unsure about. I felt really comfortable with my boys being in her home and will definitely be using her again 😊

Highly recommended and gave my dogs a home from home experience. Shelby looked after my two dogs for two nights and we were updated lots with photos of them playing, out on walks and snuggled up with Shelby. We were put at ease straight away when we met them before boarding and this trust and care for our dogs continued with excellent communication before, during and after the boarding experience. We will definitely trust and use them again. Thank you so much guys.

Shelby and her partner were really attentive with our Daschund, Minnie. Minnie is a really needy dog and suffers from separation anxiety but settled really well with Shelby:) she was really well looked after whilst we were away for the weekend and could relax knowing Minnie was well cared for. highly recommend Shelby to care for your dogs!

Bramble had a fantastic day with Shelby. He's not used to being away from us but was very settled there. We're hoping to book again soon 😁

Schedule

I am looking to earn some extra money pet sitting and dog walking. As I am a primary school teacher this is something that me and my partner are able to do on evenings, weekends or school holidays. We are eager to fit in pet care at weekends and school holidays as it is something we really enjoying doing.

Safety, trust & environment

We can care for dogs in our own home due to our dog being reactive he would not be in our home and would be cared for by my partner’s mum who shares the dog with us at her home. We treat your dog like our own and the safety of your pet is of paramount importance. We always think about how we would want someone to care for our dog when caring for your pets. Our pets are our babies and when your pet stays with us we welcome them in as a member of our family.

Pets

A typical day

We know how important it is for dogs to be stimulated physically and mentally. We know when dogs want to play and want to relax and just have a fuss. We know the importance of dogs being able to sniff and smell and explore and this will be what we encourage on our walks. Whatever your usual routine is we try to follow as closely as possible to help to settle your dog more easily.
