Pet care experience
My name is Una and I have been taking care of dogs for over 15 years. Growing up in a home with dogs, cats, pet rats, and the occasional goldfish, I have always had animals around. I started actively working with them when I was 7 years old, as a dog walker and sitter, as well as being a frequent volunteer at my local humane society throughout my young-adulthood. Since then I have continued to care for other peoples animals, as well as my own. I have fostered both dogs and cats and currently have one pet - a cat named Mr. Baby! Unfortunately, I don't live somewhere where I can have a dog right now, so taking care of other people's isn't just a job, it's something I truly love. As a self-employed musician, my schedule is very flexible and makes it easy for me to work around the care your dog requires. I look forward to hearing from you and I can't wait to help take care of your furry friend!
Reviews
Una is my family's pet sitter. When we go out of town, it's always with peace of mind knowing they have someone who will love and care for them in the same way we would. We have 5 cats and a dog. Two of the cats eat special food and one takes meds twice a day, so things can get complicated and Una somehow gets it right every time. Our dog was an abused rescue, and not easily socialized, but she took to Una the first time around - it was incredible. Una really understands how to handle every situation and we never have to worry when she is in charge of things. We are grateful to have someone so conscientious and responsible when we're unable to care for our beloved pets.
I have 2 dogs. They are my family and will not trust them with anyone. Una came and met my dogs and they loved her! She was kind and patient . My dogs are resuces. they don't trust a lot of people. I love Una and my dogs love her. She is gentle and loves animals. She understands what they need . She plays with them ... loves them and treats them like her family. I would highly recommend her. She is the best! She is Herb and Harry approved. ( my dogs). I feel safe leaving my loved ones with her.
Una is fantastic! She has been trained in shelter work and as a result can care for not only well adjusted animals, but is experienced with both cats and dogs who have a history of trauma, neglect, and abuse. I have 3 very weird dogs that all have different quirks. Two are senior dogs and Una is very aware of their needs and limitations. The third is a very skittish rescue, and she is able to walk him in public, take him to dog parks, and get him to instantly calm down. They absolutely adore and respect her! She has also watched the dogs while she house sat for us. We had no worries while we were gone! We have used Una for years, and can't imagine using or trusting anyone else!!

Information Una W. would like to know about your pet
I am open to all breeds and ages of dogs. If there are any issues I need to know about, such as if your dog is aggressive towards other dogs on walks or has any specific dietary needs, those things are always good to know ahead of time. This gives me the information I need to customize my care to your dogs needs.
A typical day
I can't wait to take your dog on walks, play with them till they pass out, or just give them some good cuddles! I'm always open to specializing care for whatever needs your dog may have!
