About: Hi, I am a student currently studying a Zoology degree at Hartpury University. I love all animals and I have lots of experience working with them. I have worked at a doggy daycare in the past and have a lot of experience caring of them. I also have experience with elderly dogs and dogs with special needs, as my family dog had diabetes which required daily insulin. He was also deaf and blind but went through cataract surgery so I have a lot of experience with eye drops too. I am currently a university student so my availability will change depending on my schedule. But I am not in university all day every day so I have lots of availability. I offer at home visits where I can visit your pet during the day while you’re away. I will give them some play time and make sure that they’ve gone to the toilet while I am there. I will also make sure if there are any accidents that they have been cleaned up.

“Kaidyss was great with my two girls, she was very proactive on learning and understanding their needs and kept me updated as to how they were getting on throughout the day with some great photos to show all the fun they were having, would definitely use Kaidyss services again”

About: I have been around dogs all my life, from big to small. I’ve looked after families dogs plenty of times, one which requires diabetic medication and care. In october 2024, I took on a dog that required extra care and attention due to anxiety and being abused as a pup. I work as a TA with flexible hours. Due to the nature of my job, I only work 1-3 days a week which means I can be readily available when needed. I have a large fenced garden with double doors that open onto it, and I am happy to leave the doors open for air flow and to allow the dog freedom of being inside or outside. I can crate if required.

“Melissa has been great with my two pups, they seem to have taken to her instantly She kept me in the loop during the walk sent some great photos of my girls having a lot of fun on their walk and spent some time after having cuddles and strokes which is exactly what my two dogs love almost as much as being out in the sunshine on a field Would definitely recommend Melissa great communication and an excellent service with my two pups”

About: I grew up rearing, raising, and training XL dogs on a farm South Africa, from puppy to old age. I have rescued many dogs. Our sheep dog is a rescue. We have a sheepdog and 2 poochons who are super friendly and love making friends. My wife will probably spoil your dog just as much as she spoils our own. My wife is now a qualified dog trainer making us a great pair to ensure your dog is safe and happy during their stay with us. My wife and I both work from home. We're really flexible and we take our dogs for a walk 2 or 3 times a day. We have a walled garden and we have plenty of experience walking dogs. We have a large open plan kitchen/diner with laminate flooring, so easy to clean any mess, and your dog is welcome to chill with us in our lounge on our sofa's. Our house is your dog's house.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and a lifetime of having animals of my own, I've been fortunate to make pet care a central part of my life. I've spent years looking after my family's dogs, my partner's dog, and even helping friends and neighbors keep their pets active and happy with regular walks and playtime. Because I work from home, I can give every dog the time, attention, and love they deserve. Unlike larger services where dogs may just be "part of the schedule," I treat each dog as if they’re my own, ensuring they feel secure, stimulated, and completely at home. Whether it’s a leisurely walk for an older pup or engaging play for high-energy dogs, I tailor each day to meet their needs. I understand that pets are family, and when they’re with me, they’ll always feel like they’re right at home. I’m not just here to check a box — I’m here to provide genuine, personal care for each and every dog, going above and beyond to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is highly flexible, as I work from home, which means I can adapt my day to ensure your dog gets all the care, attention, and stimulation they need. I understand that pets aren’t just looking for a place to stay; they’re looking for companionship and comfort, and I’m here to provide that. Any times that I’m unavailable will be clearly marked on my calendar, and I keep it updated so you’ll always know when I’m available. But most of the time, my work-from-home setup allows me to pace my day around your dog’s needs. Whether they need a midday walk, some playtime in the garden, or simply someone nearby to feel secure, I’m here to make sure they feel completely at home and loved. For me, it’s not just about fitting them into my day — it’s about making them the heart of it. My home is designed with your dog’s safety and comfort in mind. I have a securely fenced garden with locked entry points at both the front and back, so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in a secure environment. I’ll always be with them in the garden to ensure they’re safe. Inside, I have my own dog, Yogi, a friendly and playful crossbreed who loves making new friends, and I only welcome one guest dog at a time. This means your dog will have a calm, familiar environment without other unfamiliar pets. If you’d prefer your dog to be walked individually without Yogi, I’m more than happy to accommodate that, too. Plus, there’s a vet just around the corner, so if any situation arises, I can quickly get them the care they need. Your dog will be monitored and cared for throughout the day. Whether they want to be by my side or need their own space, I make sure they have whatever they need to feel at ease. I’ve set up a cozy spare room with blankets where they can relax if they prefer some quiet time, and I’ll check on them regularly to ensure they’re comfortable. I don’t follow a rigid routine, so we can focus entirely on your dog’s needs and preferences. I enjoy engaging dogs in play with toys and games, but I’m also happy to let them rest on the sofa or one of the beds around the house. I’ll rarely, if ever, need to leave your dog alone, and if you prefer they are never left alone, that’s not a problem at all. When caring for a new dog, I take the time to let them explore and get comfortable at their own pace. Building trust is essential, and I find that a calm, gentle approach helps each dog settle in naturally. Over the years, I’ve worked with a range of dog personalities, from shy and reserved to energetic and playful, and I adapt my approach to make sure they feel relaxed and secure. I also use positive reinforcement to help create a comfortable bond. On walks, your dog’s safety is my top priority. I keep them on a lead at all times and follow any specific instructions you have about socializing with other dogs. I have a variety of walking routes nearby, including parks and scenic paths, to keep things interesting and enjoyable. If I have your dog for multiple days, I’ll mix in some gentle adventures to keep them stimulated and engaged. I respect your dog’s privacy and your peace of mind. I can provide photo updates of our time together, but all photos are kept in a secure file on my phone and deleted after our time together. I want you to feel confident that your dog will be cared for as if they were my own, in a safe, loving, and home-like environment.
