“Thank you so much Anna for caring for Millie for the last week! You have been so caring and attentive with Millie. You made me feel so at ease with our daily updates and photographs Xx”


About: I've had dogs most of my life, we recently lost my families 13 year old patterdale but luckily I've got 2 very energetic Show Cocker Spaniels to keep me busy. Finn (Blue Roan) is 5 and Reggie (Ginger ninja) is 3. They both went to Dogs Trust puppy classes as soon as they were old enough and I've kept up with this training. Reggie has been anxious since getting him with a lot of travel sickness too. I've slowly worked on his confidence and we actually made it to Wales in November without any issues! We love going on walks to the dog park and socialising, a quiet stroll on the canal or training in the garden. I also have a nephew (Archie - border collie) who I've looked after overnight every chance I got when he was younger, he's now 9 and struggling with his mobility so I'm well versed in looking after arthritic dogs who require medication and more mental stimulation. I'm currently working flexible remote hours as a Graphic designer so I can fit around your schedule and even work from your home if your dog needs more company. Hoping to transition into full-time dog walking / sitting Happy to follow your lead in terms of what training you follow and how you structure their day but can also play and teach them some fun things if you are ok with it.

“Jemma is amazing! She took such great care of our cat and even brought him treats without us asking. We had lots of great videos from her of a very happy cat. I highly recommend Jemma she won’t let you down!”


About: I'm an avid outdoors person, who loves going for walks and hikes just as much as my dog 😂. I've always loved being around dogs and know how much they mean to their families. I have had various breeds myself from the age of 7. I currently have a friendly, well-socialised spaniel, so daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and making sure a dog's needs are met are already a big part of my life. I understand that every dog is different. Some want an energetic adventure, while others prefer a slower, more relaxed walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore. My priority is always making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I'm reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I'll treat your dog with the same care, kindness, and attention that I give my own. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe & having a great time. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits and house sitting throughout the week, with flexibility to work around your dog's normal routine whenever possible. I know consistency is important, so I'll do my best to keep to your preferred walking times, feeding schedule and any other routines that help your dog feel comfortable and secure. Whether your dog enjoys a long adventure, a gentle stroll or simply some company while you're away, I'll make sure they receive the time, care and attention they deserve. Your dog's safety and wellbeing will always be my highest priority. Before our first booking, I'd love to arrange a phone call or a meet & greet so I can get to know you, your dog and their individual needs. I'll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medication, training, recall, walking preferences and any behavioural quirks. I'll always keep dogs secure on walks, avoid situations that may make them uncomfortable, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident they're happy, safe and being cared for as if they were my own.

Within this role I split my time between the office and home, working remotely two days a week. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I don’t use crate training—instead, they’re free to roam around the house and make themselves comfortable. I also have a safe, fenced back garden where they can enjoy fresh air, playtime, and exercise under supervision. Whether in my home or a pet owner’s home, I make sure their routine is kept as close to normal as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and cuddles—so they feel secure, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have had dogs of my own since I was 10, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I have experience looking after dogs of different ages, including training and caring for young puppies, as well as providing patient, gentle care for older pets. I’ve also looked after cats and kittens for family and friends, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and making sure they feel safe, happy and settled while you’re away. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their individual routines, needs and personalities. My aim is always to give your pet the same love, attention and care I would want for my own.

I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they feel happy, comfortable and cared for throughout the day. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in your home, I’ll always make their comfort, happiness and routine my top priority. I’m very flexible and happy to work around each pet’s individual needs, whether that means sticking to their usual feeding and walking times, giving them extra cuddles and attention, or allowing them plenty of quiet time when they need it. I have plenty of space and lovely areas nearby for long walks and plenty of exercise, especially for energetic pups who love to explore. I’m also happy to adapt to your pet’s usual routine and care requirements, so they can feel as comfortable and settled as possible while you’re away. My aim is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved and well cared for, just as they would at home.
