About: Hi! I’m Liv! I’m a lifelong animal lover with countless years of experience walking and caring for dogs and cats of all sizes! While I don’t have any pets of my own currently, I continue to walk and care for the dogs of my family friends and neighbours. I have just graduated University and currently work flexible shifts as a care worker, which gives me a lot of availability on certain days throughout the week, whether it’s going for walks (or runs!) or just giving them the company and affection they deserve. I live in a big house with a big green garden full of trees, hidden paths and a bridleway, all of which is fully fenced off and enclosed.
About: I have loved caring for dogs since i was 9. I loved to help my mum groom and walk dogs growing up, as well as now looking after our dog at home. I’m looking to start a career in dog walking and dog sitting. This means that i am available Sunday-Saturday and can fit around your schedule. I’m lucky to have beautiful open fields just a short walk from my home…perfect for giving your dog the space to explore, play, and enjoy proper off lead time in a safe and peaceful environment.

About: I’ve fostered dogs from local shelters over the past year, including puppies and dogs that have needed muzzle training. I have always looked after my family dogs - a labradoodle and a border collie - when my family have been away or needed extra help. I’m working full time with a flexible schedule and days working from home. Long lunch breaks, a dog friendly workplace and Flex Time working opportunities makes caring for pets much easier and able to fit around my schedule. Although we live in a flat, we have a large gated garden and a huge park right next door. There is a porch door as well as the front door ensuring extra security. The sofa is dog friendly for those who are allowed and we have a lovely space next to the fire for dog beds!

I currently work part time as a self employed dog walker so have plenty of time to fill looking after your lovely pets! my day to day plans tend to be very dog friendly 🐶 I primarily offer sitting, in your dogs own home. A lot of dogs and owners prefer this as your dog gets to stay in their routine and in the comfort of their own home. I live in a flat with a shared garden so I only take boarding bookings for dogs who would be happy and comfortable in this environment. I also have a cat at home so any boarding customers need to be cat friendly.

I can easily follow instructions and would provide updates on your pet so you feel your loved pet is in the best possible care and ensuring they aren’t lonely when you’re away.

“Liv was highly recommended to me by a colleague and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. She was reliable, punctual, and my two cocker spaniels absolutely adored her from the start. Liv took great care to make sure the dogs were safe, happy, and well-exercised. She even helped with my older dog, Bailey, who has specific mobility requirements and needs a bit more care. I am very busy and my dogs are so precious to me, so it gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Liv to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
