Availability

Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work from home, giving me the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extra attention for your pets. I can also offer dog boarding in my home or dog sitting in yours. My children and my dog Alfie are with me every other week, so during the weeks they’re not here, it’s just me, making those weeks perfect for house sitting or boarding. This flexibility means I can tailor my schedule to your pet’s needs and provide a calm, loving environment. I do not charge more for 2 pets however for 3 pets or more there is an additional charge of £12 per pet for overnight stays.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I work from home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to keep them happy and relaxed. For house sitting in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep everything neat and clean while ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for. I can also administer medication if needed and give extra support for anxious or senior dogs. My schedule is flexible, and during the weeks when my children and Alfie dog aren’t with me, I can offer house sitting or boarding.

Information Taryn W. would like to know about your pet

It really helps me to know a few things ahead of time so I can give your pet the best care! Please let me know if your dog has any quirks on walks, like pulling on the lead or snapping at other dogs or people. I’d also love to know about their recall and whether you’re happy for them to go off-lead in safe areas. For house sitting, it’s useful to know if they need toilet breaks during the night, what time they usually wake up in the morning, and if I’ll have a quiet space to work while I’m there. These details help me keep your pet happy and comfortable while making sure everything runs smoothly for you too!

A typical day

I’m an active person, so a typical day includes plenty of exercise and fun! I’m happy to take your dog for a jog of up to 30 minutes (this will be on lead) or go for walks up to an hour. We’ll play fetch, hide and seek, tug of war and enjoy belly rubs, chin scratches, and lots of cuddles. My goal is to keep your pet happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away

Pet care experience

I’ve been a dog lover all my life and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets with very different needs. While living in Cyprus, I rescued Katie and Rocky after they were abandoned and gave them a long and happy second chance at life. Later, I adopted Alfie, who had been abused and was terrified of people. He hid under a bush for two weeks before I earned his trust. With guidance from a dog behaviourist, I helped Alfie overcome his anxiety and bad behaviours, and today he’s the most loving, confident dog who happily joins me on school runs and adores attention from kids. I also rescued Charlie, another Cyprus dog, and cared for him through his senior years when he went blind and deaf, making sure he always felt safe and loved until he passed in 2024. These experiences taught me patience, compassion, and how to handle everything from behavioural challenges to senior care. For the past 2 years, I’ve been a Rover sitter with over 20 happy clients and all 5-star reviews. I’ve cared for anxious dogs, untrained dogs, puppies, elderly dogs, and energetic dogs and I’m proud to have regular repeat customers. I’m experienced with senior care, administering medication, and creating a calm, loving environment for every pet. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect.

Taryn is so lovely, Jess and Olive warmed to her straight away and she took great care of them both as well as our home. She sent us regular updates so that we could enjoy our holiday and not worry. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend

Taryn has respected our nervous dogs boundaries and worked at building a relationship with her. She has been very communicative and the photos have been lovely- good to see their blossoming relationship

Taryn has such a warm personality that Pip, our terrier, seemed to be completely at home with her. Taryn was conscientious and contacted us when Pip’s appetite was not good, but that often happens and she let us know the following day when things were back to normal. She is a great dog boarder
