Pet care experience
Hi there! I adore dogs.. I have looked after dogs for friends and neighbours over recent years, and have been on Rover since July 2023. Because I am able to work from home I have done a lot of dog boarding at mine whilst families go on away or day only bookings. The longest period i have looked after a dog is 15 days but as short as an evening - as long as I get to fuss a dog I’m happy. I grew up in a cat family and have fostered cats and kittens in the passed due to this. I have a dream to adopt a rescue dog however in the uk adoption centres only seem to consider applications who have previously owned - a catch 22! I spent time volunteering in a elephant and dog sanctuary in Thailand, so could return and adopt from there. However, I’m really hoping that increased evidence through Rover will help me be able to adopt a dog in need of a home from the UK. I love animals and spending time with them is so enriching I look forward to spending time with your pup !
Reviews
We can’t thank Verity enough for the exceptional care she took of Willow whilst we went on holiday. Verity made the 11 days away so comfortable with the evening “pupdates”, so we could relax and know that Willow was having lots of fun on her own holiday! The provision for Willow was absolutely brilliant and Willow had the best time staying with Verity - we will definitely use Verity again in the future and would recommend extremely highly!
Verity is an amazing dog sitter. She is caring and kind. What more do you need?
Verity is so wonderful with our dog Cooper! We know he is safe and really well looked after with the updates given to us. We are booked in for the future and will continue to use Verity for Doggy Day Care in the future 😀
Verity is a first class sitter who genuinely cares for dogs x

Safety, trust & environment
I have a enclosed secure small garden, and my house backs onto fields for quiet country walks as well as pavement busier walks. I also drive and have a car so we can go to Blenheim or other beautiful spaces for those on a longer board. I do not have any pets, and it would only be one dog at a time so your pup would get all the attention.

Information Verity S. would like to know about your pet
If bad weather/winter please bring a towel or two depending on length of stay. If high energy/play oriented please bring amble toys so we can play together! If food oriented please provide treats although I have a few plus cucumber/carrot in surplus as I’m vegetarian!
A typical day
I am happy to follow your dog’s routine as much as possible. On a typical working day we will go for a long morning walk in the fields or local park for fetch, a short walk at lunch and again an evening stroll around their dinner time. I am fortunate to be very close to fields which are perfect when not water logged, plus two dog friendly parks both within 5 min walking distance plus footpaths galore. I love cuddles all the time so your dog will receive a lot of fuss and attention. Love to play also and happy to play fetch for a long time!

Availability
I work from home full time, and often go for a two walks a day on my own anyway so would be great to have a walking buddy. I have no children and I’m very organised so can schedule and plan with your pup in mind. I go to the gym which is the only place I can’t take the dog!
