Hi, I'm Lucy, nice to meet you! I've cared for animals my entire life.I grew up on a farm and have cared for so many animals from dogs and cats to rats, hedgehogs to peacocks and calves so will consider all types of pets.I started pet-sitting around 3 years ago and I absolutely love it ❤
I really enjoy meeting and caring for all types of animals and it definitely helps me miss my old dog Milo, alot less. Milo was an ex-rescue, who had a lot of issues with anxiety and didn't much like many dogs so if this is a problem you have, I can't train your dog but I can be very understanding of their needs.
I live in a quiet flat on the 1st floor near St. Marks Park, Pilrig Park, Victoria Park and the large network of cycle paths which are great for a walk! We have quite a large shared garden outside, so plenty of lovely places to enjoy with your pet however there are quite a few dogs of all sizes who live in the development so ideally your dog is good with other dogs.
I only take one household (1 or 2 pets maximum) at any time and I am happy to consider all types of animal.
I can offer walks (duration negotiable, starting at 1 hour), pet sitting at my house or yours, feeding and playtimes! I am happy to come to you for standard fee plus travel. Dogs will be walked on lead at all times.
Daytime bookings are between 7am - 6pm, night time bookings between 6pm - 7am. Anything crossing over these times should be booked accordingly but I'm happy to negotiate on rates.
The only thing I ask of any visitors to my home is that they are housetrained and don't eat anything they shouldn't, in particular my shoes 😂 Multiple pet sitting is a possibility depending on the temperament and size of pets. I will not take on any pet without a first (free) meet up to make sure we are all happy! I've included lots of photos of my home and a few of the many pets I've looked after over the years.
Please get in touch to discuss you and your pet's needs - I would love to look after them soon!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
From the outset Lucy was very reassuring with excellent communication throughout when we needed our very young labrador puppy taken care of. We were very pleased and grateful for the service provided and our puppy was very content, settling in so quickly at meet-up and when he stayed at Lucy’s home. As a very young puppy it was going to be a big adventure for him being away from his pawrents, we had no worries or stress as Lucy sent us update pictures and texts, it was soon very clear that our puppy had adopted himself a new family member . We would definitely recommend Lucy’s services as she has a lovely, warm nature and it was clear to us that he was in a safe, nurturing environment with someone who has a natural affinity to pets.
Thank you so much and I’m sure our not so little puppy ( how do they grow so quickly ! ) would love to see you again very soon !

I am very pleased and impressed by the daycare service Lucy provided for my miniature dachshund Max. From initial contact, the meet and greet and the booking process, Lucy was very accommodating, with great communication throughout. Max is known to be a bit anxious and vocal however quickly warmed to Lucy and her home. I was able to relax feeling that he was in very capable hands! I was updated with photos throughout the day which was lovely and would happily recommend Lucy and her services with 5 star+ rating! :)
Hope to see you again! Thank you so much
Jane and Max
