I have been using Pawshake for the past year now and I am confident in my level of experience and what to expect for different dogs or puppies. I currently have full availability and am happy to resume dog sitting, boarding and walking, so please get in touch.

I am 27 years old, and have graduated in Applied Social Studies, with experience in childcare as well as other types of care. My experience of doing care agency work has required me to be flexible, and means i can be sent to work with different types of services. This means that I have acquired a lot of skills in being patient, compassionate, understanding and a good communicator/listener which are skills also useful in working with pets.

I am good at communicating with owners and always happy to share photos to let them see how their pup is doing. For the time being I am really enjoying petsitting hence have no plans to work full time hours, therefore I have plenty of time to spend at home or with guest pets.

I have a beautiful frenchie called lorne and also have experience helping with my mums golden retriever as well as friends dogs such as pugs, collies, border terriers, and chihuahuas. Lorne is a friendly pup who loves to play as well as snuggle up. He is very happy to make some new dog friends as he is a social boy.

We live next to Kelvingrove park so the park is our back garden, however we also have a few quieter areas and parks around if that is better suited for your pup. We love to go for walks or find somewhere quiet to relax.

Please keep in mind although I live in quite a large spacious flat it is 2 floors up, so if your dog is not confident on stairs then I am most likely not the best fit for you however if they are small/medium i have no problem carrying them up and down the stairs.
