Dog Walking in Sedgemoor

About: Hello, I'm Macy. I live in Somerset with my family. My parents as well as three siblings (all over the age of 11) We have two budgies, Blueberry and Mango - they live upstairs and won't be around your dog. Our home may sound like a lot but we have plenty of space for your pup and will make them feel a part of our family when boarding. My love of animals led me to study and complete an Animal Management Level 3 course at Cannington College over the past two years. I learnt a wide variety of practical skills that included dog care. I have also had experience in walking and sitting dogs during this past 8 months and I can't get enough of it. Im happy to work with all types of dogs including puppies and geriatrics. I have the time and energy to take great care of your dog. If there's any specific needs just message and ill do my best to accommodate! I work with all types of breeds and sizes. You can send me a message if you need your pal to be walked, boarded or checked up on. Full Uk - Clean Driving Licence Car Owner Insured DBS Pending I’m completely flexible most days so I’m able to spend lots of time playing and walking the puppers. Requests are welcomed if anything needs to accommodated I’ll will do my best to make sure it’s done. I have a fenced garden and no other dogs in the house just budgies with are housed upstairs. I also have my own poo bags for walks and also have a dog bed, bowl and a few toys for boarding too.

About: Growing up as a kid we always had a dog in the family, it's not just an animal, it's a loved one and a family member. Tillie, our last family dog passed away a few years back, and my husband isn't keen on dogs, so I have decided to get my dog fix by offering services on here. I'm friendly, kind and slightly quiet, but give me a dog and the energy comes out of me. I currently work 30hrs a week, and usually finish at 12 midday or before, leaving my afternoon free for walkies and pop-ins. I usually get one weekend day off, alongside one midweek day. Regarding here. We have a fenced garden, with grass and patio. We have a private Alley to the garden and the gate to the garden is locked with two bolts at the top and bottom of the gate. Personally, I may not do a lot of boarding as my husband has his vinyl collection downstairs, but if I were to, they would have access to the kitchen/diner as well as the garden.

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals, and anytime family/friends needed help with their pets I was always the first to help. Meaning I have plenty of experience in different ages/ different breeds of dogs and cats. My partner who lives with me also has plenty of experience, in particular with medium/large breeds of dogs. We are open to all ages, sizes and breeds🙂 I will always go out of my way to make sure your pet is happy and well looked after whilst they are staying with us. That includes: nice long walks, loads of cuddles and maybe a sneaky treat🙈 Just drop me a message😀 I currently work for an agency, meaning I pick and choose my hours that I work. This means that I will be very flexible with my services and can do boarding every night of the week currently🙂 Moreover, with my free time it will mean I can ensure long walks and loads of loving and company for your pet. Your pet will never feel alone when they are with us and will always feel super loved! All animals are more than welcome anywhere in the house, my house is their home when they are staying with us❤️ I have a good sized garden which is fully secure and plenty of space throughout for the dogs to go wherever they want.

About: I've taken care of dogs for about 8 years so since I was 10, I'm very good with them and friends and family have relied on me many times. Anytime tbh don't work at all and just looking for extra bit of cash, so book with me now and should respond within 30 minutes. I will keep an eye on the pets as much as possible, will make sure they go for walks and will take care in all of them.

About: I have looked after and cared for dogs since I was young. I have recently started my own dog walking business which is blooming looking to find new friends to walk with. I’m currently on maternity leave and hoping to keep fulfilling my passion with looking after and walking animals and to keep myself busy and active I unfortunately cannot accommodate pets and cats in my home as I have a dog myself however I will love your pet just like my own at your own home or on a lovely walk :)

About: Hello there! I’m Frances, I am a friendly, experienced, mature and professional lady who loves and care for animals and always very sensitive to their needs! My experience is in taking care of: - Dogs, (young, old, playful, anxious, nervous, with lock down anxiety and who may be stubborn) - Cats of all ages and mischief - A variety of house plants, gardens & veggie patches. I am an experience trusted house and pet sitter and have been working both in the South West UK and internationally over the past 3 years. Over this time I have taken care of many adorable dogs and cats both in Australia and the UK. I have recently returned to the UK to live after living 20 years in Australia. I have chosen to continue house and pet sit as I love caring for animals and enjoy getting to know each and every one, treating them like my own. In addition I love to meet new people and explore new areas. I would dearly love to house and pet sit for you as I would offer your pets so much love, lots of cuddles, follow their daily routine, give lots of walks and play time and keep them safe. I will also take excellent care of your home and utilities including basic gardening including watering plants, mowing the lawn and weeding. I am interested in house sitting in the Somerset/ South West area of UK as this is where my family live and am available for sits of longer in duration from weeks to months. I am also available for weekend and midweek sits too. At previous housesits I have taken care of both dogs and cats in Wincanton, Exmouth, Bishops Lydeard and Glastonbury, Bristol, Somerset and Melbourne and surrounding areas. I am a qualified Art Therapist, Illustrator and Reiki Master and at one of my housesits I took care of two elderly siamese cats and as I was able to provide soothing energy healing to the cats which they loved!! As a keen walker, artist and photographer I will regularly send you photo updates of your adorable pets whilst you are away. Previously I have also worked as a live-in Nanny in America, I have supported children and adults with Art Therapy, have been a successful textile and carpet designer, along with loving working as a lecturer in Textile Design at University. I currently work as a self-employed therapist and illustrator so I am flexible with times and dates for bookings. This also means we can be adaptable to your pet’s daily activity. It would be wonderful to chat with you on line or by phone, to organise a ‘Meet and Greet’ to introduce myself to your pet whilst in your company which will enable them to get to know me. Then, consequently when the planned sit comes around they will be able to feel relaxed and at ease in my company. I can provide excellent references and testimonials on request. I look forward to hearing from you soon and am happy to answer any questions. For housesits, to ease the process I would like to know please: An overview of your pets general behaviour and habits, for example are they: Friendly with other dogs, animals? What’s their routine? Food they eat daily? Are they allowed on the furniture or restricted to certain areas in the house? Do your dogs walk off or on the lead? What makes them happy? How would they notify me that they need to go to the toilet? How long can they be left alone for? Are they an outside or inside cat? Their personality? It is important for me to know if they have any specific traits or issues, or Do they have any medical conditions and need medication? I also welcome discussing these with me prior to meeting either via message or over the phone. Can my clients to please write this necessary information as a note for me to have during the housesit. This will include for example your pets daily routines, their feeding amount and times and an emergency contact and vet details. Please see below a few of my 5 star review on my previous Trusted Housesitter website. Thank you for reading my profile and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Frances Gloria - Cirencester, United Kingdom - 5 Jun - 6 Jul 2022 Frances housesit with and took care of our son Ben the Labrador. Frances is very friendly trustworthy and wonderful house and pet sitter. Patsy - Wadebridge, United Kingdom - 1 - 16 May 2022 My first experience of using a Trusted House sitter and I was very pleased. Frances came to stay two days before I went away so got to bond with my cat and dog. The animals very relaxed and happy and Frances sent pictures and a message every other day about how they were getting on and what they were doing. The animals had a lovely time and Frances was very lovely with them and she said she was loving the area of North Cornwall and I would be very happy to ask Frances to sit again for me in the future. Lindsey - Lyme Regis, United Kingdom - 8 - 25 Apr 2022 Frances came a day earlier so that I could meet with her which was great. All seemed well in the house and with my dog. The house was clean. I was very happy to have her house sit for me for two weeks while I was away. Alison - Exmouth, United Kingdom - 4 Mar - 5 Apr 2022 From the initial contact to the actual housesit, everything went very smoothly with good communication. Frances was amenable to my suggestion that she should meet us a couple of weeks before the actual sit, & also coming 48 hours before we left so that she could really get to understand Tipi’s routine, favourite walks etc & the house. We had no issues whatsoever, she gained Tipi’s confidence & soon became a substitute for us. This was reinforced when we met her some 4 days later to return a key & he bounded up to her like a long lost friend - he is clearly very attached to her & we have asked Frances to housesit for us again. We have no hesitation in recommending her - Tipi is quite anxious & likes a fair amount of walking, but she was up to the job & both he & the house had definitely been well cared for. Grace - Glastonbury, United Kingdom - 11 - 13 Feb 2022 Frances was so easy to communicate with and very organised. She was lovely with Remus and left the house clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you Frances! Terry - Bishops Lydeard, United Kingdom - 4 - 11 Feb 2022 Frances, was a wonderful dog sitter, who looked after our dogs and house while we were away. Frances made us feel comfortable with regular communication which led us to enjoy our holiday knowing our dogs and house was safe in her hands. Greta - Melbourne, Victoria, Australia - 14 - 25 Jan 2022 Frances did a wonderful job of looking after our 3 pets and we were able to relax on holiday knowing that she would manage the house and pet routines. Frances kept us updated on the pets while we were away and were turned to a tidy house and happy pets. I'm currently working part-time online so I'll have plenty of time to walk, cuddle and play with your pets. I'm available for pet and housesitting during the week and weekends dependant on my calendar availability. I love caring for pets and enjoy getting to know each and every one, treating them like my own. In addition I love to meet new people and explore new areas. I would dearly love to house and pet sit for you as I would offer your pets so much love, lots of cuddles, follow their daily routine, give lots of walks and play time and with their safety of the highest priority.

“Bentley had a wonderful time, thank you.”

About: I own a gorgeous mixed dog breed so have direct experience as well as my childhood home hosting various cats and dogs. I have dealt with heartbreak and pure pleasure. Currently in between jobs so could do with some extra money. Each week I can be flexible. Evenings are also a possibility as well as weekends. I have a modest sized house with sufficient fencing. I live alone. No children. I own a dog myself so I am very aware of what is too much .

About: Hi there 👋🏻, I’m Katie I am 23 years old, I currently live in Bridgwater and i am a massive animal lover. I have grown up with 5 Japanese Akitas and 2 Shiba Inu’s, growing up with these dogs have taught me how to look after different dog breeds with different personalities and temperaments. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes 🐾 A couple of months ago I rescued a dog of my own, she has come with a lot of challenges that we have slowly overcome with lots of training from my partner and I. She is thriving so much. Being a stay at home dog mum allows me to be available Seven days a week and 24hrs a day. Therefore I can be available whenever I am needed. I live in a secure house with a very secure garden with a 6 foot fence all around. There’s plenty of toys to play with, access to water inside and outside

About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life, from strays to kittens, at one point we had seven ! I also have experience house sitting, baby sitting and dog sitting. I’m currently back from travelling and searching for a more permanent job so I can completely work around any schedule needed. I’m happy to cover hours during the day, walks, or overnight stays ! I only offer services currently out of my own home as we have a cat and a tortoise that would be particularly against a canine visitor ! I aim to create a secure and trusted environment so you can travel/work/holiday stress free without worrying about the pets at home :)

“Our very bouncy and energetic 30kg puppy was handled with expert care by Jen. He absolutely adored her and always came back from his walks with her very happy. Could not recommend Jennifer enough.”

About: I have experience with most breeds of dogs and cats (big and small)! This involves grooming, giving meds to senior felines and canines and weaning puppies from 3 weeks of age! I am also capable of training basic tricks from scratch, especially to younger dogs :) I’ve worked in a Dog Groomers for a few years now which has made me extremely patient meaning I can cope well with all types of temperaments and learnt to respect the boundaries of animals. My friends and family have trusted me plenty of times to walk, feed, bathe and care for their pets overnight, as they know I’ll provide them with updates throughout! I’ve been bonding and caring for my rescue cat since I was 4 years old. She means everything to me and she’s still here 18 years later happy as Larry! Having this strong bond with her has gained me an understanding of how important a pet’s happiness is to their owner, so I’d love to be apart of that whilst you are away! I have just graduated from University with a degree in Zoology, but I am now based in Minehead for work, however the rota changes each week. Due to this, I would have to play it by ear on availability but will try my best to work around the hours I do with you! I’m an active person so my walks can range from 30 minutes to a couple hours depending on the breed and your preference, I’m also capable of walking multiple dogs at a time :) After each drop in, walk or house sit I will ensure your home is left tidy and your pet is left happy! If you need me to crate your pet at any time, just let me know! You will receive regular photo updates of your pets whilst you’re gone if this is of interest to you (I have interest in animal photography so it would be my pleasure!) :)

About: I’ve house sat since I was 18 years old, from sheep to chickens, dogs, cats and horses; I’m very used to caring for all animals and their individual needs. I have a flexible working pattern so I am available to give your pets all the attention and care they require whilst you are away from home I care for the pets in my care as wished by the pet owner so that the pet can remain as happy and settled as possible.

About: I had a sprocker spaniel called Jasper for eight years, unfortunately he has passed due to cancer. I loved having him around but am no longer in a position to have a dog, so I do a lot of pet-sitting (as I always have done), as I love spending time in the outdoors and with animals. I have worked with many different dogs over the years and have learned so much about dog behaviour and their individual needs. Having owned a very energy rich spaniel I am really passionate about stimulating dogs and making sure they get lots of time in the outdoors to keep them happy and healthy. I also have had three cats in the family growing up and feel very comfortable and confident caring for them also. I really love to spend time with animals and it provides me with much needed down time from by busy degree working towards becoming a doctor. I am familiar walking with dogs that may have additional needs, such as if they are reactive or nervous, just let me know what works for them :) I am always free during the weekday evenings. I also am available on Wednesday afternoons. I often am around during the weekends also and can be flexible to your needs. My schedule changes weekly, so don’t hesitate to ask! I love giving my animals a good fuss, and will always be there for tummy rubs and cuddles if they are! Also through having my own animals I know how to keep them safe at all times. As a medical student I can be trusted and am responsible.

“This was my second booking with Nezli. She was brilliant again. Very reliable, great communication and very helpful and accommodating. My dog ​​absolutely loves her and her friend and I look forward to further bookings and her help. Thank you Nezli ✨✨✨”

About: I’ve taken care of many family dogs since I was 8. Also own and have experience with cats . I’ve worked in stables with a variety of animals. Also studied animal care at Bridgwater college. Despite working full-time, I prioritise pet care by building it into my daily routine. I’m highly organized and ensure pets receive the attention they need, whether it’s scheduling walks or feedings before and after work or dedicating quality time on my days off. I find caring for animals to be a fulfilling part of my life, and I’m committed to maintaining their routines, ensuring they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for no matter how busy my schedule gets. In the Pet Owner’s Home When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and maintain their established routines to minimize disruption. I provide companionship, ensure feeding schedules are followed, and keep their living areas tidy. Whether it’s freshening up litter trays, walking dogs, or simply providing cuddles, I focus on making the pets feel safe and cared for in their familiar environment.

About: I have been looking after friends pets for over 10 years & walking friends dogs periodically to fit in with my working from home job. Please make sure your furry friends are regularly de flead & wormed. As I work part time from home, I am very flexible in caring for your beloved at most times to suit us both, day or night. I have a large enclosed garden, where your pet can roam freely, between walks. I have a rather elusive, friendly cat who is used to dogs but does not like being barked at or chased! I am happy for your pet to sleep in whichever room they are comfortable, but preferably not on the bed (famous last words) sofas are fine, if they are used to it especially for cuddle time. Happy to crate them or whatever they are used to for their own comfort. Please bring their own bed & comfort blanket & toys.

“Becky was great and is so lovely, and took Bruno on such a fab long walk in the park! He was tired and happy when we got home later in the day. Thank you!”
