Highlights
Pet care experience
Bristol Dog Walker and Sitter
I’ve had dogs all my life and currently own my third Doberman, so I’m very comfortable with large, intelligent and high-energy breeds. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m certainly not new to caring for, walking and handling dogs. Over the years I’ve looked after friends’ and family members’ dogs as well as my own, and I understand the importance of structure, consistency and calm leadership. I’m confident handling strong dogs on the lead and ensuring walks are both stimulating and safe. Your dog will be treated as part of the family — with clear boundaries, proper exercise and plenty of affection.

Ratings and reviews
Simon was super with Odie. Asked all the right questions and clearly understands dogs and what they need. Simon, introduced Odie to his dog ahead of the stay which was perfect for both dogs to get to know each other. He kept us updated with photos and videos whilst we were away.
We booked Simon at the last minute for a two night stay at our home. Simon took wonderful care of our dog and our cat while we away. He gave us regular updates and sent photos. We would 100% recommend Simon and will be booking again.
Poppy had a great time with Simon! It was reassuring to meet up in a green open space to meet his dog Heidi before he looked after her. He sent lots of videos and photos and poppy came home happy and tired from all the playing.
Simon cared for Buddy as though he was his own. He was a lovely guy, good at messaging and sending photos, and even bought him a toy! We will go to Simon first when we need dog care again
Simon has looked after my animals, cats and dogs on multiple occasions he’s great with animals and particularly in managing and looking after dogs. We can’t recommend him highly enough.
Good evening. I can highly recommend Simon to be part of your community. He has an amazing rapport with animals and over the years has looked after several of mine. He is trustworthy, confident, and very caring putting them first and making sure they are safe at all times. All my dogs have loved him, those who have passed over the Rainbow Bridge and the German Shepherd and tiny terrier cross I have now. If you require any further information please do not hesitate in contacting me again. Best wishes Gilly Speleers

I work from home and I have plenty of time to go for long walks and playtime with dogs. We normally go for two walks a day our favorite places are Oldbury Estate and magpie bottom.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and a beautiful three-year-old Doberman called Heidi Houdini, who is very friendly and loves other dogs. I am happy to be a sitter or have borders or just take Dogs for a walk.

A typical day
We start the day with a walk down to magpie bottom walking through the Orchard and doing a loop past the stream. Come back have breakfast. Maybe a bit of a nap and then we go for the afternoon walk down to Oldbury Estate. If it hasn’t been raining, then we might have a dip in the in the river, a bit of ball chasing in the park. Maybe some training practice with treats if allowed and then back to the ranch. I get all with my work for an hour or so, whilst the hounds have a snooze.
