Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible, reliable dog care you can trust!
I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I grew up with a German Shepherd at the age of 5. I have alsolived with my sister a couple years ago and helped raise and train her miniature dachshund, and remaining a trusted dog sitter when she’s away. I work flexibly (mostly remote), so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. I live in a cosy apartment ideal for small to medium dogs, and I’m close to a local park for daily walks and playtime. I’d love to care for your pup like they’re my own!

Thank you so much. Always know Leo will be safe and well looked after with Shirley and Aran. Thank you!! 🤍

Shirley and Aran were lovely, thanks so much for looking after Leo! We received updates and photos which was great and we felt at ease knowing Leo was being so well looked after. Thanks again! 🤍

Many thanks Shirley. Xx

Great service as always. Many thanks Shirley. X

Shirley and Aran were fantastic! Easy to communicate with and smooth and flexible service. They clearly loved caring for Daisy and Daisy had a fantastic time! Came back exhausted which is good, it meant she was kept occupied and had lots of attention.

Schedule
I work Monday–Friday in a flexible role (mostly remote), with occasional office days where dogs are welcome too. That means your pup will rarely be left alone for long stretches. Weekends are usually free, and I love bringing dogs with me for relaxed park walks and playtime.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a cosy apartment that’s ideal for small to medium dogs who are comfortable indoors. While I don’t have a garden, I have a patio and there’s a local park nearby for walks, play, and fetch.
A typical day
I love having an excuse to be outside so would always bring the dogs out for walkies! When the weather is nice especially in summer, I like to bring dogs to an enclosed park to play fetch with.
