Loving Care Tailored for Your Pet
I’m a devoted dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds and ages, whether mine or those of family or neighbours. Nothing makes me happier than spending time with furry friends, whether it’s playing with them, training puppies, or providing gentle care for senior dogs. I treat every dog like family, with patience, kindness, and respect. You can trust me to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels happy and secure while you’re away. I have experience with dogs with epilepsy, providing the care they need (per the instructions you have been given by your vet).

Nothing brings me more joy than spending time with furry friends—whether it’s playing, training puppies, or providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. I treat every dog like family, with patience, kindness, and respect. You can trust me to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels happy and secure while you’re away. I also have experience caring for dogs with epilepsy, following the specific instructions provided by your vet to ensure their well-being. From a young age, I’ve had a special place in my heart for dogs—my family often jokes that no stray ever escaped my notice! Wherever we went, I would gently coax stray dogs into our car to take them to the vet and give them a safe, loving home. This lifelong passion for helping dogs is at the core of the care I provide today. :)
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Highly recommend as a dog sitter. I felt very confident and reassured that Ripley would be in safe hands with Vasaliki from the first meeting with her. Lots and lots of photos sent through showing Ripley playing with other dogs, out for walks and also settling down in her basket at night. Will definitely use again.
Vasiliki looked after our dog Mitzy whilst we went abroad on holiday for 11 nights. She cared for her so wonderfully. Providing detailed updates and photos. Mitzy really had an amazing time at Vasilikis house, I think she’s sad to be back home she loved it that much! I would not hesitate to use Vasiliki again when we need someone to look after Mitzy. Very impressed overall. Thank you Vasiliki 😘
Vasiliki and Kostas were very welcoming to Gryff, and sent lots of photos of him having fun with other furry friends or cuddled up with them in a cosy bed. We were just visiting the area for a party. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend, I was very worried about leaving my dog with a stranger but I needn’t of been. Plenty of updates and photos showed that he was having the time of his life. I would not hesitate to use again. Thank you so much.
Our puppy had a lovely time. Played with another dog each day and was so happy playing with the family too. I was kept updated with lots of photos whilst we were away, which made me feel so much happier with regular updates.
I had never left my 2-year-old Cavachon before, so I was naturally a little nervous. Vasiliki was incredibly accommodating and kindly offered to meet us at a local park beforehand, which really put my mind at ease and gave me confidence that Stanley would be in great hands. Stanley had a lovely time, and the communication throughout the day was fantastic. I received lots of updates and photos, which was so reassuring. It was clear he was well looked after and enjoying himself. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Vasiliki again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!

Schedule
I work flexibly from home, so I can provide walks and companionship as often as your dog needs throughout the day. My husband also works from home, ensuring your dog will never be left alone while in our care. I do school drop-offs and pick-ups on foot for our 1 child, and if your dog enjoys a stroll (about 15 minutes each way), I’d love to bring them along for some extra exercise and fresh air. If you’d prefer your dog to stay at home during these times, that’s no problem—my husband and I coordinate so one of us is always at home with your pet. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual schedule and routines, including feeding times, quantities, medication, walk times, and any special instructions you have. Please feel free to let me know exactly what works best for your dog—I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious, fenced back garden where your dog can safely run, play, or simply relax. Inside, there’s plenty of room for them to feel comfortable and at home. For your dog’s safety and comfort, I exclusively use leads, harnesses, beds, crates, and other equipment you provide—this way, your dog enjoys the familiarity of their own gear and routine. I ask that owners supply everything their pet needs for their stay, including food, medication, and any special items, so I can offer the most personalized care possible. I always follow each dog’s unique routine, from feeding schedules to special care instructions, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Our home is filled with love for dogs—both adults and our gentle, dog-loving 9-year-old are devoted to making every guest feel welcome. Above all, we treat every dog with the same love, patience, and respect we give our own, so you can trust your pet is always in safe, caring hands
A typical day
A typical day with me is filled with fun, enrichment, and plenty of love. We’ll start with a morning walk or play session in my spacious, fenced garden—perfect for stretching legs and burning off energy. Throughout the day, I tailor activities to each dog’s age and personality, whether it’s gentle games and cuddles for seniors or interactive play and training for puppies. There’s always time for relaxing in cosy spots around the house, and if your dog enjoys social walks, they’re welcome to join me on school runs for a change of scenery. I love using toys, treat puzzles, and positive reinforcement games to keep dogs mentally stimulated and happy. Of course, there are lots of belly rubs, ear scratches, and photo updates for you! My goal is to make every day enjoyable and stress-free, so your dog feels right at home while you’re away.

Supplies: Ensure essential items like food, treats, toys, grooming tools, waste bags, medication, bedding, and crates are provided and clearly labelled.
