House Sitting in Copeland

About: I have an extreme amount of love and passion for animals especially dogs & cats. I have had my crazy spring spaniel now for 6 years & he’s my pride a joy, he’s kept me on my toes. I’ve had him since a puppy so I’ve had a lot of experience looking after dogs of any age as I’ve also looked after family & friends dogs to. Animals are amazing and they deserve all the love in the world & I believe I’m the best person to provide them with the best care. I’m currently employed full time doing home care. I get my shifts on Wednesday the week before but with the shifts available being quite flexible no matter what shift I’m on I will be able to attend at some time. Upon wanting to book your pet in with me we can discuss when I’ll be free & when would be best for you & your furry best friend. Any do’s & dont’s will be essential for me to know upon booking. I will make sure they are safe, fed, watered & have lost of love during my visit. I am a trust worthy individual, with my current home care job confidentiality, respect & trust are high values I follow. I am used to key safe boxes also

“Polly was looked after with love and care , we arrived home to find her happy and healthy. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Helen again”

“Ellie took the best care of Harry, with a detailed record of all walks and adventures. I recommend her whole heartedly. ❤️”

“This is the first time I’ve used this and all I can say is the service was exceptional and I was really impressed with the excellent level of communication throughout. Emily accommodated my dogs needs and took time to learn the dogs routines, likes and dislikes. My two dogs were happy and content when I came home and I had no doubt in my mind whilst I was away that they were getting the very best care. Emily is Honest, trustworthy and outstanding at what she does !”

About: I have always lived and cared for dogs and am comfortable with large and small breeds. From a young age I have had large breeds with a variety of personalities - so am well experienced with all kinds of behaviour from dogs. I love walking in the mountains, and would love a companion to take on my walks, but am also open to smaller breeds that can keep me company at home. I am fortunate enough to work from home 2 days a week so am also able to offer overnight stays during the week. All week days are available upon request. I can be flexible and try to accommodate your specific needs. I am able to work from home during the week if required and am therefore able to offer weekend and weekday overnight stays. I live in the Lake District with plenty of lovely walking routes. I also have a fenced garden so your dog can play in the garden. I have one small cat, called Nala. She is a timid cat and will likely stay out or stay upstairs away from the dog, but she is harmless. Please provide your dogs bed so I can ensure they feel as comfortable as possible.

“Reece and Lucy were an absolute pleasure to have in our home with our beloved boy Reggie while we were away for over a week! They took such great care of him, sending updates and also taking him along on all their adventures! He can be quite crazy at times but they took it all in their stride and Reggie had a great time with his new friends! Thank you for everything, we look forward to having you again with Reggie soon ?”

About: I grew up being surrounded by doggos ! I would often help my nan with the retired greyhounds she would rescue (at one point I think there was around 8) we also had numerous furry family members growing up , whippets, Italian greyhounds & shitzus to name a few! We now have our Sprocker (springer x cocker spaniel) Charlie who is 6 years old and the centre of our world. He has separation anxiety so isnt keen on being left alone for any period of time - this is something we have learned to manage and have experience in. I am currently enrolled in a dog first aid course. I also have my own private pet sitter insurance with PetPlan Sanctuary to give you extra peace of mind. We are around weekends generally out walking with Charlie for at least 2 hours. Tues-Thurs I am available after 4pm and Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday I am available all day (work from home days are Monday and Friday). I only ever walk one dog at a time (solo walks only) I am able to look after your dogs within your own home to ensure their normal routine is not affected, I am happy to sleep wherever is best suited for your family & your dog and happy to follow any guidelines you set out to make your pets life more comfortable while you are gone. When allowing someone into your home to look after your family member it is so important to me we are all a good match and I fit your needs - for this reason a meet and greet is essential prior to any home boarding.

About: I volunteer with a local rescue. I have trained gun dogs from puppies and have a passion for providing specific breed needs. I am comfortable with all breeds and am more than happy to adapt to each individual. I have a very flexible job so am able to fit this into my day to day life whenever needed, and for any length of time. At my core, I love all animals so they will be treated with care, love and lots of snuggles (if they are happy for this). I pride myself on treating others’ pets as I would wish for someone to care for mine. Following owners wishes to the best of my ability and providing care that is exceptional and so your pet will hope I come back!

“Yasmin is a wonderful person who has grown up with pets all her life. She has had dogs and cats throughout her life and when she was younger she also had rabbits, terrapins and Guinea pigs. She has often had to look after the animals when we are away and does a brilliant job of feeding them, walking them and giving them the love they need.”

“Laura has looked after my dog several times and sometimes this can be at short notice. My dog has always been happy to go. Laura has always enjoyed the outdoors and will often take her dogs out on long walks for a good amount of exercise and to burn off some energy. I would recommend Laura to anyone who is looking for someone who cares and will give their dogs love and attention.”
