Very Experienced With First-Time Away From Home Nervous Pets
EdinburghAbout Lena
Currently working as a 'Functional Health Life-Coach', I work and study online. I've lived in Edinburgh for 18 rs and have been a dog sitter now for the past 5 rs. My background is rooted in cultivating health & well-being, as a skin specialist, nanny, children's yoga teacher, dog walker and coach. I'm very experienced in supporting nervous pet parents with their pets' separation anxiety behaviour.
I have a lot of experience, especially with first-time 'away from home' pets. I provide trust, safety, and a confident calm energy for your pet and connected communication with you while you are away. I don't have my own dog so I am delighted to offer pet-sitting while you are away.
When I Visit Your Home What's Included In A Dog-Walk And How Long Does It Last?
- Booking a walk starts at 45 minutes, walks can be up to 90 minutes at a time tailored to your dog's needs.
What Does Typical Day Care Look Like?
- Daycare (9-5) consists of a 45-90minute walk in the morning. Toilet breaks throughout the day and another 15-20 minute walk before 3 pm
When Am I Available For Pet Care?
- My diary is flexible. mostly mornings and afternoons for walks.
How Long Will I Stay In Your Home On A Typical 24hr House-Sit And What's Included During The Stay?
- For house sitting, I will plan to stay at yours all day. I do have some outside classes I attend during the week. So we would ideally discuss this. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. That includes lots of variety with walks, playtime and in general friendly time together. I ask for a minimum of 2 days stay. Bookings finish at 8 am on the final day.
What Does Typical Day-Care Look Like?
(This is an example, I work with each dog and their owner's needs unique to them)
-Up at 6 am, toilet break.
- 7/8 am, long walk for 45-90 minutes. They can jump in the water and then pull me about chasing squirrels and saying hello to other dogs.
- Then home and breakfast, relax and usually sleep for them.
- 1 pm toilet break, 20 minute walk.
- 3 pm repeat and playtime :)
- 5 pm repeat, then dinner.
- 6 pm relax and chill with me for the evening while I usually read.
- 8 pm toilet break, then beauty sleep for your little one;)
I make it a priority that owners feel as much at ease as their 'little friends' by including them in our activities during the day with photos and videos.
Bookings end at 8 am on the last day.
If you have any questions please feel to reach out.
Looking forward to welcoming you all!
Warmly,
Lena

Reviews
As always, Rufus had a fantastic time with Lena - she has established an amazing rapport with him and he loves going to stay with her. Lena cares for him as if he were her own and I’m very appreciative of everything she does for him. I have no worries or qualms when he is with her and know he is in best hands. Thank you.
Great.
