Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet sitter in Chepstow
*Note: my dog won't be present during the booking - your dog will have the home to themselves* I’ve grown up around dogs and have been looking after them since I was young. I share a border terrier called Kiwi part‑time, so I’m very familiar with dog routines, and all the fun (and mischief) that comes with looking after them. When I’m looking after other dogs, Kiwi won’t be with me, so your pup will have my full attention. Friends often leave their dogs with me for weekends, so I’m used to managing different temperaments and making sure each dog feels comfortable and settled. I have a fully fenced, secure garden that’s perfect for playtime. My home is right next to a playground and open fields giving me lots of great walking routes to keep dogs stimulated and happy. I also have a crate available if that’s useful for your dog’s routine. Dogs are welcome on the sofa, but not on the beds. For overnight stays, crate training is ideal but not essential, I’m happy to work with whatever routine your dog is used to. Your dog will be well looked after with me.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Soph has looked after my dog countless times as well as having her own dogs. She loves and cares for my dog taking her on long walks no matter the weather. My dog is reactive and I trust her judgement and experience managing her behaviour and is so accommodating to her needs. She also looked after her as a puppy as well as when she was unwell requiring regular medication and attention. She is trustworthy and reliable and responsive to messages. I’m really going to miss her as a dog sitter as she’s moving away from this area.

Schedule
I work in a hybrid pattern, which means I’ll be working from home when your dog is with me and able to give your them plenty of company and care throughout the day.
