“Tom and his dog, Mika, greeted Griffin and us with smiles and doggie tail waves, which was great as we hadn’t all met before. After a few sniffs of hello (dogs, of course), we knew they would have no problem together. Tom has a great place to board a dog for a day, night or longer… lots of open area. We could tell right away he was an animal lover and would and did take care of our little guy.”

“Kenna is the sweetest! She sent updates of how my Bear was doing(pictures included), made sure I had precise directions to find her house, and Bear had an absolute blast. 100% would use her again!”

About: I have taken care of family members dog, in fact every year my sister in Las Vegas flies me out to care for her two Masfiff Dane Dogs. We have had dogs for over 45 years and take good care of our fur families. I have help past clients in working with their furry friends. I am currently unemployed. I walk my dog 3 times a day when the weather is cooperative. I have time in my schedule to tend to every need when it comes to helping animals. I do have a crate if needed. We live in a safe and secure neighborhood on a lake. We always have our dog on a leash when going outdoors and I stand by with them.

About: I have recently moved to Scotland from Poland where I spent the last 3 years building a photography business as well as looking after two very energetic huskies. Long walks/runs are a must with this breed and I have a lot of experience doing that. I also looked after a sweet Yorkshire terrier. In October 2023 Molly (bernese mountain dog) joined the family so I have an experience of looking after puppies (big puppies;) ) as well. Since childhood, I have been fortunate to share my life with dogs of various sizes, fostering a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. In addition to my practical experience I possess a strong sense of responsibility and reliability understanding the importance of punctuality and clear communication with clients. I’m experienced in attending dog obedience classes and have basic knowledge how to train your pets. I currently do freelance photography and photo editing and I am available for pet sitting, boarding and dog walking most days of the week. I usually know my schedule week in advance. Before I provide a service I discuss with a clients their pets needs and their routine. I usually try to walk the dogs every two hours, I also have fully fenced (2m high) back garden they can spend time in if wether allows it. I am available to chat about any service you may be interested in.

“Taylor was amazing with our dog Rocky!!!! He’s not used to other dogs or people and we were amazed by how well she did with him!! This was a great option as an alternative to dog spas, kennels, etc!! She is the best!”

“Jody is the biggest animal lover! She has lots of experience having lots of pets herself. She has watched our dog numerous times. She makes him feel like part of the family. Our dog has even spent the night at her home! He loves being with her every time. I never worry when our dog is with Jody.”
