Dog Sitting Reading

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own — learning their quirks, favourites routes, and cuddle preferences. It’s not just a walk; it’s a friendship. I currently wfh two days a week usually Monday and Friday but quite flexible. I’m always free at weekends and Christmas time this year too When caring for pets — whether in my home or the owner’s — I make their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. In a pet owner’s home, I always follow their usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walk schedules to how they like to play or relax. I take time to build trust with each animal, especially those who are shy or anxious, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy and safe. When pets stay with me, I create a calm, comfortable environment where they can feel at home. They have plenty of space to play, nap, and get cuddles. I make sure walks, meals, and rest times match their usual rhythm, and I never leave them unattended for long periods. Whether it’s a quick walk or overnight care, my goal is always the same — to give pets love, stability, and attention so they feel secure and content while their owners are away.

About: I Have done dog walking and day care and overnight boarding for 4 years. I have looked after an elderly dog for 2 weeks in our home, sending photos and following his schedule as requested and giving him a home away from home. I have regularly walked dogs locally having access to clients home whilst they are at work. I have a dog of my own a poodle border cross who keeps us on our toes. I am part of a dog and pet loving family and treat clients pets as my own whilst in my care. I have had geckos of my own plus I have cat experience. I am currently looking to increase my dog walking and visits as a part time job so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies ! I have flexibility. We have a fenced garden and our own small dog. I an focused on providing care, enrichment play and company to your dog or pet in your own home as well as walks.

I have experience walking strong and difficult dogs, and will be confident attending to your dog's every need!

Over the years I’ve developed hands-on experience sitting a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities.

Because of this schedule, your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, regular bathroom breaks, and company throughout the afternoon and evening.

“Stefanie looked after my 4 cats for 10 days over Christmas and New Year and was truly fantastic. She sent me regular photo updates and took the time to get to know each of my cats well enough to successfully win them all over individually. They absolutely adore her and I came home to 4 very happy cats!! I wouldn't hesitate to book Stefanie again! ”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was young and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets including rescue dogs, hamsters, and budgies. Over the years I’ve provided dog walking, drop-ins, overnight house sitting, and pet care for friends, family, and clients. I have also completed a pet first aid course for extra peace of mind. I’m especially patient with nervous or anxious pets, having spent the last 9 years with my rescue dog who is fearful of people, which has taught me how important calm energy, trust, and routine are. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’ve also handled more responsible aspects of pet care when needed, including taking dogs to vet appointments during pet sits, so I’m able to stay calm, attentive, and reliable in different situations. I genuinely love animals and always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day, especially during longer stays. Depending on your pet’s needs and routine, I’m able to do walks in the mornings, at lunchtime, after work, and in the evenings, while also spending plenty of time with them during the day. For dog walking and drop-ins, I’m generally available on selected weekdays at lunchtime, every evening after 5pm, most weekends, and during holidays including bank holidays and Christmas. I currently provide pet care in the owner’s home, as I believe many pets feel happiest and most comfortable staying in their familiar environment and routine. I always take the time to understand each pet’s usual schedule, personality, and needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I aim to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind.

About: I have several years of experience caring for my own dogs, as well as previous experience with a wide range of pets, including exotic animals. I’m confident and comfortable with pets of all temperaments and stay calm in new or unexpected situations. I also have an academic background in biology, which helps me better understand animal behaviour and body language. I always respect each pet’s boundaries, carefully follow owners’ instructions, and keep up to date with best practices in pet care to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a contract part-time job and have plenty of free time. I am free most of the days with exceptions for Monday and Sunday evenings and some occasional events. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine at all times. While I do not offer boarding or in-home stays, I provide attentive dog walking services in the local area and drop-in care for cats. During walks, I ensure dogs are handled securely, follow owner instructions closely, and choose safe, familiar routes. I provide regular photo updates so owners can feel confident and informed. For cat care, I focus on maintaining a calm and respectful environment in the owner’s home, following feeding and care instructions precisely, and engaging in play or interaction only if the cat is comfortable and receptive. I always respect pets’ boundaries and aim to keep their environment stress-free and consistent with their normal routine.

About: I grew up having a cat and then dogs as pets throughout my childhood and then as an adult. I am a qualified Veterinary Surgeons o I am confident in giving medication if needed. We are a family of 6 people and 1 little rescue dog. My husband and I have hybrid working situations which means that one of us is always working from home and therefore able to let dogs staying with us have company and toilet breaks easily. Money raised from dogs boarding with us between Easter 2026 and Harvest 2026 will be donated to our church for essential maintenance work. My husband and I work from home and the office. One of us is always around to provide company and toilet breaks. Dogs get walked twice daily for 30 mins-1 hr each time. We have a fully enclosed garden and live on a quiet cul-de-sac with a wood nearby for great walks. We have 3 children so there is always someone to give affection. we have our own little rescue dog who is approximately 2.5 years old who is very friendly.

“Nadya was brilliant with Henry. Super communicative and quick to respond, exactly what you need. She did two drop-ins and a walk, and he took an immediate liking to her which honestly says it all. Really reassuring to know he was in such good hands. Will 100% be booking again!”

We have a variety of toys that they like to play with, they are also interested in anything I do when in the garden such as mowing the lawn or washing my bike.
