For the last 6 years I have run a successful business in Equine sports therapy and rehabilitation. This is where im responsbile for management and welfare of horses coming back to exercise after injury working closely with vets and owners off site at owners properties.

I am experienced in tailoring my care and routines to suit you and your dogs. - able to administrate oral medications - specialised walks for older dogs or dogs in rehabilitation. Happy to provide photos all throughout your dogs stay. I work from home now so I can and will be with your dog all day and can tailor walks to the weather. Im flexible with my hours and I'm happy to travel your pet to walks that you know they enjoy and love like the beach or certain trails. My home has a large, fully fenced back yard which means toilet breaks and outside time apart from walks can also be fun and filled with zoomeys and fetch. Your dog will have the run of the house with me and will only be allowed in the back yard under supervision.

About: I’ve owned various dogs for the last 15 years, training them from puppies and caring for them in old age. I currently have a dog who is my world and we would love to bring yours into our lives and treat them as part of our family. I work full time but spend the majority of my free time exploring with my dog and doing things with him, there’s always time for pets! I have a secure pathway outside of my house which is big enough to use as a garden. I have laminate flooring, so no need to worry if your furry friend has an accident whilst with me. I also have a medium sized crate should you wish for me to use it.

“Testimonial for the exceptional dog walking and sitting services provided by Evsy K9-CHAOS. Over the past six months, they have taken care of my beloved Belgian Mallinois dog with unparalleled dedication and expertise. From the very first meeting, it was evident that Evsy had a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. They quickly established a strong bond with my Mallinois Raik creating a sense of trust and companionship that put my mind at ease whenever I had to leave my dog in their care. One aspect that truly sets Evsy apart is their commitment to providing personalized attention and tailored services. They took the time to get to know my dog's individual personality, preferences, and energy levels. Whether it was a high-energy walk or a gentle stroll, they always ensured that my dog received the right amount of exercise and mental stimulation. I was particularly impressed with his professionalism and reliability. They always arrived on time for walks, adhered to any specific instructions I provided, and maintained excellent communication throughout our engagement. It was incredibly reassuring to receive regular updates, including photos and videos of my dog enjoying their outings and playtime. Moreover, Evsy demonstrated remarkable knowledge of dog behavior and safety. They were adept at handling any unforeseen circumstances that arose during walks and had a keen eye for potential hazards. I had complete peace of mind knowing that my dog was in the hands of someone who prioritized their well-being and took every precaution to ensure their safety. In addition to their exceptional dog walking services, Evsy also provided outstanding dog sitting during my absence. They created a nurturing and comfortable environment for my Mallinois, ensuring they received ample affection, mental stimulation, and companionship. I could tell that my dog genuinely enjoyed their time with [Dog Walker/Sitter's Name], as they would eagerly wag their tail and show excitement whenever they arrived. Overall, I cannot recommend K9-CHAOS Lee Evans highly enough. Their dedication, expertise, and genuine love for dogs make them an outstanding choice for any dog owner seeking reliable and trustworthy pet care. I am grateful for the exceptional care they provided to my Belgian Mallinois over the past six months, and I have no doubt that they will continue to exceed expectations for all the dogs they have the privilege to care for.”

About: I grew up with a variety of animals- dogs, cats, chickens, geese, ducks, donkeys, horses, rabbits, Guinea pigs and even pet sheep and goats! Because of this, I am a vegetarian who loves all animals as i realised at a very early age that they are all sentient beings. I walk my 2 rescued Malinois 3 hours daily, and when I am out of the country, I leave them in the loving care of my mother. I’m currently working remotely, and occasionally I work around the world on super yachts, so I have my own schedule and can work my life around it. I am a very safety conscious person and will always make sure that an animal is safe from dangers, and looked after like a child! (They are our fur babies after all!!!) The loving them is just the added bonus!
20. Elen G.
About: I have always had pets and have a dog of my own at home in Cornwall who I love and look after all the time. I’ve done work experience in a veterinary clinic (so I have lots of experience with animals) and am currently undertaking a degree in biology at the University of Manchester. After my degree I am planning to complete a veterinary medicine course so I love all animals and am very enthusiastic to spend as much time as I can with them. I have babysat before and have experience looking after other people’s dogs too. I am at uni so mostly have online work to do with a few lectures each week. This means I’m at home most of the time so I’m almost always free! I am more than happy to spend lots of time walking and playing with your pet. I love going on walks already and would love to have someone to walk with! I have looked after dogs myself before and am more than capable of keeping them safe and happy.
