Have grown up with animals all my life and miss having the company of one, as I'm not in a position to own my own pet yet. I'm excited to be able to offer my free time to help out and look after animals. I can offer a cosy flat, really close to a park so they have access to outdoor space if needed. I live with two other housemates so there's 3 of us in total, no other pets live in the property. The pets would be allowed to sleep in my room for the night and then be allowed around all of the flat for the day/nap in the living room, wherever they are comfortable really! I'm a keen walker so would happily take them off on a walk too. My services on walking would range from anywhere from 40mins to an 1 hour.
My mum currently has (which I grew up with) 4 dogs, ranging from all sizes (small - large) and cross breeds as well. I'm used to dogs that bark as our smaller dog was rescued and has separation anxiety. I grew up in cornwall so would always take dogs walking in the fields/beach so had a good idea of what dogs need.
I'm happy to do day/over-night stays or if you simply just need me to to take your dog for a walk, I'd also be really happy to do that! I'll only take two dogs at the same time as I want to be able to give them all my attention and feel like any more than that wouldn't be fair to the dogs. I can offer two walks a day on Monday and Wednesday, before 9am and after 5:30pm and then evening walks on any other week day after 6pm and weekends as many walks as you like at any time of the day!
On weekends, again I'll only take two dogs at the same time, if I'm dog sitting I'll be with the dog 100% of the time, whether that's just taking them for a walk or if it's older and finds that hard then I would happily just spend time with the dog and make sure it comfortable in my flat. Dog sitting I can do most evenings but I work from home on Monday and Wednesday, so could do day sitting then, but obviously am working so would need to pick the dog up before 9am. I can do full boarding (staying over for the night) from Friday-Sunday.
I feel confident with dogs and would be extremely responsible when looking after them (I really get they're like your baby)
If your dog needs serious medication I would rather do that under the supervision of the owner, but if it's a tablet then I'd be happy to give them that. In addition to this; I don't offer any training or grooming services as I don't have any experience in it.
I would love to have a few regular dogs that I look after and also take on walks.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me,
Thanks so much!
