Friendly, respectful and trustworthy

Pet care experience

Age: 49 Location: Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Hi there! My name is Wesley, I'm 49 years old and live in beautiful Hertfordshire, just outside London in the UK. I can look after your animals and home, allowing you to relax and enjoy your time away without worrying about a thing – and your pets will have a great time too! I’m semi-retired and have successfully ventured into the world of pet sitting. I adore dogs and cats and love spending time with them and getting to know their own personalities. Having had the privilege of growing up on a farm, we had many dogs, cats and even a few budgies and hamsters as pets. They were just part of the family and were great having around as a kid. We had dogs of all shapes and sizes…my favourite was a German Shepherd named Sheba. She only had 3 legs….bless her….but we played chase for hours every day! We now have a Cockapoo as part of the family and she's super cute! I walk her daily and even take her to Parkrun on Saturday mornings (when she feels like it!). She's crazy about a ball and we play every morning on the cricket field opposite our house. When I’m away sitting for someone else, my family gives her the same love and attention - there's always someone home and she doesn't come with me. So if you need someone mature, trustworthy and experienced to look after your pets and home, feel free to get in touch. If you'd like to know more then please drop me a message with your requirements. I want to know as much as I can about your pets, to make sure I meet their needs and they enjoy having me as a house guest. If time allows, I'd be happy to pop over for a meet and greet to ensure all bases are covered, or we can do a video call.

Wesley was great, very professional. We left very comfortable leaving our puppy and house in his care for the weekend. Wesley sent us updates throughout. We would definitely ask Wesley to look after our puppy again and really recommend. Thanks again Wesley.

Wesley stepped in short notice to walk my dog as the walked that was booked fell ill. Wesley hadn't even met my dog when he agreed to walk him and had to navigate a slightly hostile dog when he arrived the first time, my Mum who was there said Wesley navigated Boulder and the situation with ease. Boulder was well looked after whilst I was a way and I'd not hesitate to use Wesley again.

Wesley was excellent and he is a very pleasant person. My instructions for the dogs were carried out in full, and Wesley dealt with the various parcel deliveries and a guy dealing with the possible doggy escape routes in the garden. The house was immaculate. I would be very happy to ask him to dog sit again.

During a house sit, I bring my own food, bedding and other consumables so won't be using any of yours. I'll also leave the house clean, neat and tidy at the end of my stay and will be happy to mow the lawn before your return (weather permitting!). I'll also water your plants and receive post and deliveries as and when required. I used to coach my son’s football and cricket teams so have a recent enhanced DBS check. Being a home owner and landlord, I'm also handy when it comes to basic DIY, so can take care of any minor maintenance issues that arise while you’re away.
