Being a dog sitter isn’t just a job—it’s a chance to be someone a dog feels safe with when their favorite human is away. It means earning trust, offering comfort, and turning ordinary days into tail-wagging adventures. Every walk, every cuddle, and every moment of care matters, because you’re not just watching dogs—you’re giving them love, routine, and reassurance. 

I am a retired married man who loves dogs and have previously owned in my life two Newfoundlands and a Labrador so am very used to BIG dogs. 

I live in a bungalow with my wife and being retired have alot of spare time. We have a large totally enclosed garden which is ideal for a dog to play in.

I like walking and taking a dog out gives me that little bit more of a reason to walk. We live very near the countryside and as a sitter, assuming you as the owner are happy with that, your dog would get a chance to take walks in that countryside.
