Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, reliable and adaptable
From long walks to cuddles, I love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have looked after puppies and senior dogs over the last 20 years and my friends and family often call on me when they go on holiday to cover pet care. Being around dogs is a joy for me. For dogs that enjoy it, I'm happy to give them a careful brush! I have looked after healthy dogs, as well as those who need extra assistance and even some who are post surgery. If they are a little fussy with food - I'm happy to hand feed!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Thissy always takes amazing care of Edie and sends photo updates throughout the day. Would 100000% recommend 😊💕
Thisakya is a brilliant sitter - super communicative, shared lots of updates and pics through the day. Pepino had a fab time, would definitely recommend 😊
It was our first time leaving our dog with Thisakya and she was amazing. She sent lots of updates and photos, checked in whenever she wasn’t sure about Billie’s routine and even got her a new toy! We felt really reassured throughout the five days and will definitely book with her again!
We arranged a very last minute walk the evening before and Thisakya was quick to respond, flexible and accommodating. She took the time to understand our dog’s needs and it’s clear she’s a dog lover too!
Edie was with Thissy and Sam for 4 nights. Longest she’s been away from me and it’s so nice knowing Edie is in good hands 🙌
Edie had her first overnight stay ever with Thissy. She was super relax and at home at Thissy’s when I picked her up. Thissy was so accommodating of Edie and I always know she’s in good hands with her 💕

Schedule
My partner or I are always home to look after your pooch. During term time I am at drama school from 9am - 6pm and free in the evenings and weekends. In the holidays I'm free as a bird (ranging from 1-3 months off). My partner works in the same industry too but he when he is not shooting he works in a bar so he has the days free to look after your doggo and I have the evenings.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Having grown up with dogs throughout my life, I have often been told I treat them like siblings as opposed to pets. I like to talk out loud to dogs so they can understand what I am doing around the house or as we are preparing to leave. They are more than welcome on my bed or sofa (so long as the owner is okay with that). I think I am fairly intuitive and observant around dogs and I was even the first to spot an issue with my family dogs knee, which meant he could get it seen to before it deteriorated! Generally, I try to look after 1 dog at a time (unless they are from the same household), so they can get my full attention.
A typical day
I am more than happy to take dogs on lengthy walks, incorporate lots of play time and even provide them with a soothing doggy massage!
