“Ian was a complete professional and kept us updated on the walks he took our dog on and included photos everyday. He also showed a real connection with our dog during the meet and greet. Would happily recommend and will use again.”

“Our dog Moses is a work in progress as he was a rescue dog to us so I was looking for a very particular walker that I felt confident with ..........we have now met Alex and I felt completely comfortable from that moment and I knew he was the right fit.

About: I have a deep passion for animals, particularly dogs, which has been reflected in my extensive pet care experience. Throughout my life, I have owned and cared for my own dogs, providing them with love, training, and companionship. This firsthand experience has given me a solid understanding of dog behavior, health, and nutrition. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also walked dogs for friends and neighbors, ensuring they receive the exercise and socialization they need. My dog-walking experience has enhanced my ability to handle different situations with confidence and care. Moreover, I have served as a dog sitter, looking after dogs in their own homes while their owners are away. This role has required me to manage feeding, administering medication, and maintaining daily routines, all while providing a safe and comforting environment for the pets. I take pride in building trust with both the dogs and their owners, ensuring peace of mind during their absence. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in pet care, including effective communication with pet owners, understanding canine behavior, and providing attentive and compassionate care. I am committed to ensuring that every dog in my care receives the attention and love they deserve. I have rescued dogs abroad in countries such as Peru and have some beautiful happy ending stories and I have looked after dogs in Chile. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely member of the family! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, providing structure and fulfillment in my life. Each day begins with morning rituals that include feeding my pets and ensuring they have fresh water. This not only establishes a routine for them but also sets a positive tone for my day. Throughout the week, I dedicate time for regular walks and play sessions, which are crucial for their physical and mental well-being. These activities are not just about exercise; they also allow me to bond with my pets, observe their behavior, and ensure they are healthy and happy. I also allocate specific times for grooming, training, and socialization, which help maintain their hygiene and reinforce good behavior. On weekends, I often set aside longer periods for outings or adventures, providing them with new experiences and environments to explore. Additionally, I keep a flexible schedule to accommodate any vet visits, pet sitters, or special needs that may arise. This proactive approach ensures that my pets receive the care they need, while also allowing me to manage my other responsibilities effectively. Overall, pet care is woven into the fabric of my daily life, enriching my routine and providing me with joy, companionship, and a sense of responsibility. In my own home, I offer; 1. A Safe Environment: My home is pet-friendly. 2. Routine Care: I establish a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. This routine helps pets feel secure and reduces anxiety. 3. Play and Exercise: I engage pets in regular play sessions, utilising toys that stimulate their minds and bodies. Daily walks or playtime in a secure area are essential for their physical health and mental stimulation. 4. Health Monitoring: I keep a close eye on their behaviour, appetite, and any signs of illness. In a pet owner’s home: 1. I respect the pet's home environment, maintaining their routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. 2. Daily Care: My responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, and maintaining cleanliness in the living space. 3. Exercise and Play: I ensure that pets receive adequate exercise through walks or playtime, as specified by the pet owner. I also engage in activities that the pet enjoys to keep them stimulated. 4.Companionship: I provide affection and companionship, helping to alleviate any loneliness the pet may feel while their owner is away. 5. Health and Safety: I monitor the pet's health and behavior closely, and I am prepared to contact the owner or a veterinarian in case of any concerns. 6. Communication: I keep the pet owner updated with regular check-ins, sharing pictures or messages about their pet’s well-being and activities.

“Honey is an amazing carer for all sorts of dogs. She has a dog of her own which she looks after amazingly whilst also helping me and multiple other families by both dog-sitting for long periods and walking them on numerous occasions. She knows exactly how to cater for different types of dogs and knows how and where to give them a good run around, especially because she has dealt with crazy cocker spaniels. Honey is the perfect person to help you with your dog needs.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and absolutely adore them! I sadly cannot have a dog in my own apartment and I really miss having a fluffy friend around. For the past 7 years I have looked after a French bull dog, Phoebe, (shown in photos) through the service ‘BorrowMyDoggy’. This included overnight stays, walking and sitting. I am available Monday - Friday between 9:30 and 2:15pm for dog sitting and dog walking. Unfortunately I cannot pet sit in my on home but I am happy to come to you. I am not able to dog sit in my own home unfortunately but in the owners home I am happy to care for your dog in the way that suits you.

“Jess was so great!! We went away for a week and needed someone to help walk our dog while she stayed with family. Jess kept us up to date using the rover app with pictures and updates. Jess hadn’t walked Una before this and it was so reassuring to know she was having a good time and in safe hands while we were away!”

“Lucy is very responsible, she is so friendly and we always have a laugh. I’ve known Lucy from a very young age and she has grown up to absolutely adore your pets!! She is always willing to take the dogs out, play with the dogs and even just to sit and give them company!!”
