Pet Sitting Lydd

About: I’ve worked with animals for 18 years and volunteered within rescue for 12 years, I am a very calm, kind and confident handler. I have the pleasure of having my own rescue dogs and work within the pet care industry full time. I am also an experienced holistic therapist for animals. I am normally available for early morning and late afternoon / evening visits but a few days per week, I am more flexible with timings & can offer lunchtime/ afternoon slots. Safety and welfare will always be my top priority and I will absolutely follow all instructions that are set out, you can rest assured that your animals will be well taken care of and to the highest of standards.

“Charlie and Hannah were amazing. Extremely communicative, came twice in one day to drop-in to look after our two girls. Even though I was out of the country I felt like I knew exactly how my two dogs were doing, the videos and photos showed my girls relaxed and happy. Will definitely be rebooking with Hannah and Charlie!”

About: My names Grace and I’m an animal lover through and through! I’ve got experience with lots of different animals through college doing my level 3 animal management and care course! I am confident in handling big dogs and have a very nurturing demeanour! I am always willing to go the extra mile for your dog too! I currently work full time, 8 - 5, but am hoping to leave this role to pursue pet sitting and care full time. Weekends are easy for me. I will care for your pets, as I care for my own - with gentle hands, showering them in love. Remembering any special requirements your pets may have and ensuring this is fulfilled.

“We wouldn’t choose anyone else to look after our fur babies. Lois and Paul were amazing sent us photos after every visit and videos too which were really comforting seeing our girl having great fun and being so at home with them both. The communication is great and they are so accommodating especially when I’m a very nervous cat mum and request a lot! Martha is a happy girl and we will definitely be using Lois and Paul again! ❤️”

About: I’ve always been a massive animal lover. I donate to charities for animals and liked doing volunteer work with animals whilst studying previously. I’ve managed to save and return lost dogs to their owners throughout my experience of volunteering. I like to try and keep things cheap and affordable for families looking to book my services as I know financially life can become stressful! Please do not hesitate to ask for lower prices, I’m willing to accept offers!☺️I’m currently working on a zero hour contract so I have flexibility for your pets. On days of working, I can get up early to ensure your pet has been out for a morning walk and to the toilet. I have a furbo so I can watch your pets whilst at work, and I do 6 hour days at most so your animals will not be left too long. Water and food always put down with plenty of toys! I will set up a cozy corner for your animal to rest, have plenty of treats and calming scents at the ready for any anxious ones! Always happy to have lots of cuddles and walks to let off energy.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and hands-on experience caring for senior pets and rescue animals. I prioritise trust, routine and gentle care, treating every pet as if they were my own, I’ve also personally rescued many birds and kept updated with the rehabbers. Making sure every animal has a chance. Currently i am unemployed so i’m available everyday, whenever needed! Taking care and walking your dog would keep me busy and make me so happy My dog is a senior, she has limited mobility so making sure she’s comfortable is my highest priority. We have mobility “aids” for her like ramps on our sofas and beds so she isn’t restricted, she’s still part of our family so why should she be kept to one area! Our garden is decently sized and well kept and there’s lots of toys

About: I have had cats for 19 years. Currently have 1 cat of 2 years old. My other cats reached 18. I love cats. They are so affectionate and great company. I work Monday-Thursday in an office but I am available on Fridays (I work from home) but that’s not a problem to do drop-ins. I can also do these at any time Saturday and Sundays I give cats lots of love and affection, stroking their fur and rubbing their bellies, feeding them, ensuring they have fresh water, toys to play with, ensuring they are safe, happy and secure

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, mainly working with large breeds and hybrids. I started a local walking group in 2021, the Walshes Wolf pack, soon after getting my now 5yr old puppy, 'Shadow' an energetic, pedigree Alaskan Malamute. With him by my side and a few amazing owners of exotic and large breed dogs we bonded together and started to show the local community the power of a pack! I went to the Open Study College and got my degree in Canine Studies in 2023, along with qualifications in canine first aid, CPR and Emotional Support Therapies, working along side local charities. Located in Hastings at the time I set up my training school, Lead By Example Canine College. Offering affordable support and training to all dogs and owners regardless of ability or circumstance. My partner Lucy is a self taught and experienced expert in Canine Hospitality. Her calming presence and skills provide any dog liable to anxieties whilst owners are away, she provides ultimate comfort and reassurance that your pets will be treated in the appropriate way to come back to a happy Dog. Since moving back to Crowborough from Hastings for personal reasons I've had to take a step back from hands-on training. Re-branding to dog sitting, walking and group therapy. Whilst I Undertake my further education. Will you join the pack? I'm currently freelance as I am studying further for a Degree in Canine Science and Nutrition, so am free to sit pretty much daily as I can squeeze in study time whilst on the job Lucy is available to help us at the Start of any service to help the transition of 'New faces' and the potential anxieties your dogs may face during your temporary absence. If a dog is struggling during this period, she will be able to assist us when and if necessary. I am acquainted in all areas of canine needs, routines and discipline, be it from crate training to simple time outs. Whilst studying the 'tail talk' of canines and their many traits. I can immediately identify concerns and behaviours, correcting them appropriately and swiftly with the utmost professionalism. Between myself and Lucy, we can confidently reassure you that we are the perfect team for any service and additional needs you may require of us for your pet to have the most seamless, comfortable experience. No matter the age or condition, from puppy to senior, rescue and working and those whom may need that little bit extra support!

“Debbie is amazing! I knew from the moment I met her that she would be great for our cat. First time we’ve left her and she’s eaten all her food and been around looking chilled. I cannot recommend her enough!! Thank you & Rover for making our time away relaxing & worry free. 🩷”

“I picked Brenna because she lives locally, but have really lucked out. I adopted Suri - a retired racer geyground - two weeks ago and we are still establishing our rhythms. It is obvious Brenna has a huge amount of patience and love for dogs and I feel confident leaving Suri in her care. It’s been nice getting the updates through the Rover app on what they’ve been up to. It’s been nice seeing them bond with each visit. Would recommend Brenna 100%”

About: Hello! 
 My name is Shannon and I've been dog walking and pet sitting for over 9 years, in Abu Dhabi, Montreal, Toronto and now in Hythe. I also had my own dogs and various pets growing up and volunteered at an animal shelter and vets in my formative years, safe to say I've had lots of experience caring for our furry friends! I’ve had many pet owners rely on me for care services for some years now and looking forward to meeting new ones! I currently live in Hythe in a two bedroom with a garden and lots of lovely trail walks nearby for your dog to enjoy. There is also the seafront a short distance and I love to take the dogs swimming in the warmer months. You can see lots of pictures of Lake Ontario I used to take the dogs to in Canada! I enjoy being active and going on adventurous walks so your dog will get all the exercise they need If they're an active breed. I'm also happy to cosy up on the couch and watch Netflix if they're a lazy pup, but I’ll offer them the best of both! I have the most experience with dogs but I have sat many cats, some hamsters, a bunny and a hedgehog! I take care of every animal as if they were my own and I am extremely proactive in my approach to caring for your pets. I will go above and beyond to assure their specific needs are met with regards to their health, activity levels, personalities and little quirks. I've had Dachsunds with separation anxiety, Great Danes with leash reactivity, senior dogs with health problems and all sorts! As long as you are transparent and communicate your pets needs, I am confident in my ability to meet them, so you can rest assured they are in good hands! Healthy, safe and most of all happy! I love to take photos so you will receive lots of great pictures of your pet, I send snaps and updates multiple times a day and I pride myself on my communication with pet owners. I provide boarding, day care, house sitting, drop in visits/walks and would love to take care of your dog, cat or any pet! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and hope to hear from you soon!

About: Dogs are a big part of my life. My partner and I always have at least one dog in our home! I love to play with them, train them and care for them. I have been through all stages of dog lives from their very first steps, and opening their eyes to saying goodbye to the precious four legged pal. Dogs are my great love. Seeing them enjoy their time on a good run, jumping up from joy with the muddy paws after an early morning swim in freezing cold water is great fun. Muddy puddles after a long walk on the Warren or around the Martello tower and a smelly car.... All stored in "best day ever" folder in my mind. I love it and want to give some of that to you and you four legged friend. I will take your furry friend on amazing fun adventures in and around Folkestone Hythe and Ashford. Happy Walks Happy Dogs! I am available during the day but also at all these less common hours when you need that help with your pet. I do early morning/late evening walks if that’s what you and your pooch need. Young puppies are much welcomed by Butter our Labradoodle. They will be safe and cared for at all times with Butter and mummy Boo. I am a walker and carer by nature. I try to accommodate the needs of every dog I meet and care for. As a start I would come and meet you, to get to know you and your furry baby. If you choose me to be part of your pooch's life I will go for a one-to one walk getting to know your pouch better. Over time I will learn what suit them best, what locations and company they like and potentially introduce them to other dogs I walk. I am DBS checked, Insured and as said reliable loving and caring.

About: I have always had pets, ever since I was very little. I have had rabbits, hamsters, fish, cats, dogs and love them. I think having pets makes you a better person. Apart from taking care of my own, I collaborate with several animal shelters and take care of my friends' dogs or cats when they need them. I currently work as a Nanny so I could take care of your pets on the weekends full time and in between you can ask me about my schedule. I take care of pets as if they were my friends and in the end they end up being. I can't bring them to my house because the rent doesn't allow it, but I can do it at home or for a walk.
