Pet Sitting in Weymouth

“Kieron is friendly and efficient. He has several dogs himself and seems knowledgeable. He and his girlfriend visited my young dog Ivor and they all had a good time playing with toys in the garden and it kept my dog company. They followed instructions and Ivor seemed to have enjoyed himself with them.”

Shane abbley :) Being a general dog-man and owning and training working dogs, if im not working my own dog, I thought why not help people with their animals. -Care and exercise and other requested needs will vary depending on the dogs age, physical ability breed and clients location. - I can take the dogs to different environments for different days out, the beach, the forest, -When it comes to the clients dogs I think it’s important to stick to their requested rules as it keeps the animal used to familiarity and doesn’t upset their owners main rules and boundaries for during play and walks. -Have own public liability insurance -I also like to stay in date on current legislations and guidelines

About: I believe every dog is unique, and I love getting to know their individual personalities, preferences, and what makes them happiest. I have extensive experience working with small and large dogs, and I’ve also owned a very large dog who sadly passed away last year. My bond with her taught me the importance of understanding and meeting a dog’s emotional and physical needs, and I bring that same thoughtful, personalised care to all the pets I look after. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I am committed to meeting their specific needs. As an athlete by profession, I’m fully equipped to care for and exercise even the most active dogs. At the same time, I’m patient and take a calm, nurturing approach with less active or older dogs. I will ensure that your dog gets the right balance of exercise, mental stimulation, rest, and love. I understand how important it is to cater to dogs with special needs, whether they have anxiety, nervousness, or behavioral quirks. I use a calm, patient approach to help these dogs feel safe, relaxed, and secure while they’re in my care. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions you have to ensure your dog’s well-being. I’m committed to making sure your dog feels at ease, happy, and well cared for while you're away. With my experience, passion for animals, and dedication to providing quality care, I’m confident I can offer your dog the best possible experience. My work as an athlete doesn’t fall under the same schedule as a normal job. When I work I am usually overseas, and come home for 'rest periods’, so when I am home I am free all day everyday! I am available for what your pet care needs are. My ability to fully dedicate my time when I'm home makes me an ideal sitter for those who want someone with a lot of availability and commitment. I am very open to what your dog’s needs are, and will meet them with ease and kindness. My approach is calm, warm, and loving. I have a spacious house with a fenced garden, and a dog field, fenced and safe behind my house. I can wash, train, walk, do off lead training, feed, crate train, puppy train, the list goes on!

About: I have lots of experience with dogs - my own pets, and my family and friends pets. I love all dogs no matter their breed or behaviours. My own pets have had difficulties with separation anxiety, and being reactive with other dogs. I often care for a French bull dog who has issues with his back legs & spine who needs some additional attention. I am a kind, caring and friend person. I am currently working in social care supporting young adults, and am pleased to be able to offer dog walking services on a part time basis. I can be very flexible with times. I am available to walk dogs early mornings from 6am, weekday evenings & on Saturdays. Please get in touch with your dog walking needs and I would be happy to discuss how I can help. Currently I can only offer dog walking & drop in services, but I am also happy to do pick ups and drop offs at the owners home. I am a conscience, careful and respectful person and understand the importance of the sensitivity of being in somebody’s home.

“Ezra looked after our 4 dogs for an evening, in our Air BnB, whilst we were on holiday in the area. We have 3 collies, one a ‘sensitive’ rescue, and a lurcher - all of them were very fond of Ezra, which immediately put our mind at rest when it came to leaving them. They were well cared for and Ezra let us know how they’d all got on as well as sharing some wonderful photos on the app! We would definitely ask Ezra to look after our dogs again if we come back on holiday.”

“Jasmine took care to get to know my dog Ivor. She seems knowledgeable about training young dogs and was caring to him. She tried hard to do different activities on his drop in visit and gave a thorough report after. Ivor seemed happy when I returned from an evening out.”

About: Hello, my name is Heidi. I have considerable experience in the animal care sector as a kennel and cattery assistant, through which i have gained experience walking and handling a variety of dogs. I am a recent FdSc degree graduate in Animal Behaviour and Welfare. My other experiences include the role of a Kingston Maurward College Animal Park and Gardens Assistant. I am professional, reliable and hard working with a passion for animals. Caring for animals has been a life long interest of mine including ownership of domestic pets and exotic animals. My passion for horses has recently been re-established. I offer dog walks, doggy day care and home visits. Thank you for reading my ‘About Me’ and please feel free to message me for any further information you may require.

About: I have grown up around animals, having dogs for most of that time. I moved over from South Africa in 2020, bringing my wife, Savannah (who will occasionally join on the walks) and more importantly, two rescues with us. Our family has grown to include two Romanian rescues. One foster that ended up being an adoptee and the other is a fostered while he learns to be around people and adjusts to a new way of life before he moves onto his forever home (unless he just ends up staying forever). I understand the complexities of walking with dogs that don't come from traditional local backgrounds and require a different style of walk to make them feel safe and comfortable while out and about. I am always happy to adjust the walk to match the dog from a nice chilled walk around the block for the golden oldies to a brisk, enrichment-filled walk for the younger, more energetic hounds. Currently, I am taking an online dog first aid course and working my way through a Reactive Dog Training course, designed primarily for Romans but suitable for all dogs. With long-term plans on becoming a dog behaviourist to try help more people with anxious dogs. I currently work full-time with a 4-on-4 schedule for the ambulance service, so I will be marking my availability around those shifts. Some of those work days, I may have availability in the afternoons or late evenings in the summer. I have medical experience not only with the two-legged species but also with four-legged ones. Coming from a conservation background in South Africa has helped with this. I am a strong believer in force-free training and focus on rewarding good behaviour, which I find works amazingly with my four rescues who come with an unknown history and get very nervous around people. Out on walks, I try to utilise scent work and other forms of enrichment to make the walk more enjoyable and enriching for the dogs not only working the body but the brain.

About: Hello! My name is Maddie. I am 19 and have a genuine love for animals. I grew up surrounded by various animals, such as dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, guinea pigs and fish. I have grown up and trained my pup, who is a collie / springer and now have another dog who is a staffy / bulldog, and have always had an open heart to every animal. No job is too big or too small. I am always motivated for a challenge. I have taken care of my dogs since a young age. Taking them on walks, playing games of ball, feeding them well and of course never forgetting lots of cuddles. Currently I am studying a uni course at Weymouth college, whilst working. However, I would like to start dog sitting to get more experience with animals, to have a good opportunity to go into the army as a dog handler. I will make time for your pets, just like mine. If they are shy / nervous / excited / outgoing , they will all be treated with the same patience and love. I am currently at uni two days a week and working 35 hours a week 3/4 days, however I’m still left with around 2/3 days and 2 evenings free to spend with puppers. I have a fenced off, big garden and two dogs that love to play and would get on well with your dog. I can easily make room for crates if needed and live next to a beautiful field and cliffs which are great for walks!

Whether it’s a young pup or a senior dog, I am equipped to provide attentive care for dogs of all ages. You can trust that your fur baby will receive the love and attention they need to thrive under my care. I work 5 days a week in office.

My family home has a walled space with the beach in close proximity.
