Pet care experience

5+ Yrs Experienced | Full-Time Care

With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs — including rescuing and fostering strays, as well as over a year of caring for dogs through Rover — I’ve developed a genuine love and understanding of dogs with all kinds of personalities, ages, and needs. I currently live in a spacious house, so every dog staying with me has plenty of room to relax, play, and find a comfortable spot of their own. I also work from home, which means I’m around throughout the day to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care. Your dog won’t just be staying in my home — I want them to feel like it’s their home too. One of my favourite things is spending quality time with the dogs I care for. When I have some free time, I sometimes make homemade dog-friendly treats for us to enjoy together (yes, I’ll happily have some too! 😄). Of course, I always check for allergies and dietary restrictions with owners beforehand. My home is also well stocked with dog toys, balls, treats, and plenty of things to keep curious paws entertained. Living in Scotland means rainy days are inevitable, but that doesn’t mean boring days! When the weather is too wet for a good walk, we can have fun indoors with games like fetch, tug-of-war, hide-and-seek, or other little enrichment activities to keep them active and engaged. I’m patient and attentive, and I understand that every dog is different. Some want to play all day, some prefer cuddles and company, and others simply need a little extra time and space to feel comfortable. I’m happy to adapt to their personality and usual routine. I’m experienced with feeding routines, basic training, and administering medication when needed. I also hold a Dog First Aid Certificate and am continuing to learn more about dog training and canine behaviour, so I can better understand each dog’s needs, communication, and personality. Most importantly, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. My goal is simple: to give them a calm, loving, fun home away from home — and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for like one of the family.

Siyi took great care of my Shiba Inu and provided pictures and videos throughout, showing he was having a great time and in a safe environment. I was really pleased with the communication received and her clear affection for animals came through. Lovely experience!

Siyi was absolutely wonderful with our Mini Schnauzer, Piper. Piper can be anxious when left with people she doesn't know well, but she settled quickly in Siyi's home. She clearly knows what she's doing when it comes to dogs! Siyi was also very flexible with times when we had some last minute travel-related issues, and kept us well informed with plenty of photo updates throughout her stay. We can't thank her enough for her help!

Schedule

Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I usually start my mornings early with outdoor time or a walk, and I can easily adjust my day to match your pet’s needs, whether that’s a midday walk, medication schedule, or just extra cuddle time. Weekends are also open, so your pet will never feel rushed or left out.

Safety, trust & environment

As an in-home pet sitter, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for your beloved pets. I understand the importance of maintaining their routine and surroundings to minimize stress while you’re away. Safety First: I adhere strictly to your pet’s established schedule, including feeding times, walks, and any medical needs. I ensure that all doors and gates are securely closed and that your home remains as you left it. Building Trust: I believe in open and honest communication. Before any booking, I offer a meet-and-greet to get acquainted with you and your pet, discuss any specific needs, and answer any questions you may have. During the sitting period, I provide regular updates with photos and messages to keep you informed and reassured. Respecting Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring cleanliness and orderliness throughout my stay. I follow any specific instructions you provide regarding household routines or pet care. Emergency Preparedness: I am prepared to handle emergencies calmly and efficiently, with access to your preferred veterinarian and emergency contacts as needed. Plus, I have the dog first aid certification. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I strive to provide a nurturing and secure environment, ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for in your absence.

A typical day

When I take care of pets, I love to make sure they have a fun and engaging time! Indoors, we’ll play tug-of-war, enjoy some fetch with their favorite toys, take cozy naps together on a blanket, and even have some fun “sing-along” moments. Outdoors, I like to explore different parks for walks and light hikes, adjusting the activity based on each dog’s energy level and needs. We’ll also play fetch outside, giving them plenty of time to run, play, and enjoy the fresh air. I have made some videos on instagram for your reference: wanderpaws.edin.

Siyi can host up to 3 pets per night
It’s important for me to know a few things about your pets ahead of time: • Their potty schedule and routine. • Whether they can have fresh foods like freshly cooked chicken, carrots, or egg yolk. • Any special considerations when socializing with other dogs. • Whether it’s okay to let them off-leash in safe outdoor areas or if they need to stay leashed at all times.
These prices are for 1 dog.
