Highlights
Pet care experience
TrustedWalkerWhoTreatsDogLikeFamily
Not just fully insured by Protectivity & Dog First-Aid trained - I love animals and grew up with pets, like a Labrador and a Samoye. What sets me apart is that I combine reliable, caring pet-sitting and dog-walking service with the experience of a genuine dog owner. I understand dogs’ routines, behaviour, and individual needs from first-hand experience, and I always aim to provide calm, attentive, and trustworthy care that helps both dogs and owners feel at ease.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I cannot recommend Wan highly enough! I have known Wan for years, and they are hands down one of the most responsible and trustworthy people I know. I’ve seen how they interact with animals, and it’s always with such patience and genuine care. Wan is the type of person who pays attention to the little details—whether it’s dietary needs, specific walking routes, or just knowing exactly where to scratch behind the ears. If you want peace of mind knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands, Wan is your person.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I own a comfortable house with secure front and back gardens, providing plenty of space for pets to relax and play. I also live beside a peaceful forest, a lovely environment enjoyed by many animals in the neighbourhood. Pets will receive a safe, caring and welcoming home while staying with us.
A typical day
A typical day includes plenty of attention, companionship and exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks or runs, especially those with lots of energy. I can take the pet to explore the nearby forest, play in the garden, practise basic commands and ensure pets also have time to rest comfortably at home.

- Please let me know about your pet’s usual routine, personality, dietary requirements, medication, allergies and any special needs before their stay. It is also helpful to know how they behave around people, children, other dogs and wildlife. I will follow your instructions carefully and provide patience, reassurance and individual care throughout their visit.
