Experienced Dog Walker, Pet Visitor, and Pet Sitter with Dog Training Skills

As a passionate pet lover with extensive hands-on experience, I am excited to offer reliable dog walking, pet sitting, and pet visiting services. I also bring valuable skills in dog training, which means I can reinforce positive behaviors and help with basic commands during walks and visits.

I hold a valid DBS check, am fully insured, and have my own vehicle, allowing me to travel easily to different locations and ensure your pet gets the attention they need. I prioritize the safety and well-being of your pets while providing them with the care and companionship they deserve.

Services Offered:

Dog Walking: Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll or needs an energetic walk, I can tailor the activity to your pet’s needs. During our walks, I can also work on reinforcing training commands such as sit, stay, and heel.

Pet Sitting: I offer in-home pet sitting, ensuring your pets stay in a familiar, comforting environment while you are away. From feeding to playtime, I’ll make sure they receive lots of attention and care.

Pet Visits: If your pet needs regular check-ins, I can provide short visits to ensure they are fed, walked, and given some company. This service is great for pets that don’t require lengthy walks but still need attention and care throughout the day.

With a strong focus on communication and reliability, I aim to keep your pets happy, healthy, and safe, while giving you peace of mind. Whether your pet needs daily walks, training reinforcement, or long-term sitting, I am here to provide flexible and trusted care.

I prefer at least two weeks notice for bookings as this allows time for a meet and greet and follow up meeting if required before the booking takes place. 

I look forward to hearing from you. 

Hi! I’m a caring and experienced pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up surrounded by pets – dogs, cats, and just about every small animal you can think of! My parents have a Lhasa Apso and a Yorkshire Terrier who I miss dearly since moving out, which is one of the reasons I love pet sitting so much.I’m originally from Poland and moved to the UK over 12 years ago to study – I hold a degree in psychology and speak both English and Polish fluently. Alongside my academic background, I’ve also completed Level 2 and Level 3 Animal Care qualifications at Barnsley College, which strengthened my understanding of animal welfare, behaviour, and safe handling. I’ve cared for dogs and cats both personally and professionally, starting in Poland and continuing here in the UK. My experience includes dog walking, pet sitting, and looking after animals with special needs, including administering medication and following specific care routines. I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds and sizes, and I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. Whether it’s a fun walk, a calm cuddle, or keeping to their feeding and health routine, I treat every pet as if they were my own.I’ve done professional pet care back in Poland and have continued looking after pets here in the UK. I’ve provided in-home boarding for a week with a large Mastiff-type dog and a blind Shih Tzu with health needs – giving me valuable experience with different breeds, sizes, and conditions.I’ve also walked dogs for neighbours and friends, and cared for my auntie’s four Yorkies regularly. I’m happy to follow routines, give meds, play, walk, and offer lots of love. Every animal deserves kindness, and I treat them like family.For safety reasons, I prefer to care for fully vaccinated pets. I’d also love to know your pet’s name, breed, size, and needs in advance. Trial meet-ups are always welcome to make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy with me!

Hi, my name is Carlos. I am 39 years old and come from Hong Kong. I am an animal lover. I like to spend time with them. I have over 15 years of pets (Dogs, Cats, squirrels) experience. I have had a lot of breeds of dogs like Pomeranian, Pekingese, Poodle, Bull Terrier, and Collie. Me and my wife are doing pet sitter jobs for over ten regular families. We take care of their dogs when needed. 
In Hong Kong, we used to do a lot of foster volunteer jobs, we took off the animals and healed them before we found an adopter for them. 
Me and my wife moved to the UK in 2021 with 4 dogs. We are living in an estate which is quiet and it has an inside garden. But we usually walk our dogs outside. There are a few great parks nearby. Our neighbors are pet-friendly, and most of them have dogs. 2 of our dogs passed away last year as they were too old, one was 15 and another one was 17. So we are having two dogs right now which are FaFa and Sunny. They are absolutely pets and humans friendly. But they won't play with other dogs because of their age. 
I am providing dog walks service mainly, as our house is not usually available because of some dogs may be on boarding. But I will update the schedule. 
For dog walks or day care. I can only accept one family dogs at the same time slot. 
About the dog walk, I like to bring them to explore new places. Also, I have enough experience to handle their behavior to make the walk safe. About the walk, safety is always the priority. On leash is a must unless the place has a gate and is not close to the transport road. 
P.S. Before the walk, I need to talk with their owner, because I need to understand what they like e.g. dog friendly? Any injury record before? Any food allergies? I will read all the necessary like different treats, backup leash, clean water, etc. 
Attention! I will take a lot of beautiful photos for your pets. 

My name is Christina.

I provide boarding and day care when you can't be there.
I absolutely love all animals and I have over 15 years of personal and professional experience with animals. 
I love animals and would love to help out when you need your fur-babies looked after. I have a lot of experience with dogs with high energy. Your fur-babies would be in good hands. I am reliable and trustworthy, available any day of the week and will try to work around you where possible. I can do walks last minute and am always happy to spend the night with your pet if you can't be there. I am now happy to say I’m boarding animals - so what ever you need, I’m happy to help. If you have any questions, I would be more than happy to answer your concerns. I do have small children so all animals staying need to be ok with kids and I never leave the animals alone with the children.

I have a large house with plenty of room and a medium size garden.

I’m home full time so your animals wouldn’t be left alone unless going to the shops. I can provide toilet breaks whenever they want to go.

I have a large house with medium size garden that is secure and fenced in. I have small children in the home and the environment is a typical family home.

I am home full time so am able to provide unconditional attention to your pets. They are able to go to the toilet whenever they need too.
