Hi! I’m Holy, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. 🐾 I’ve grown up around animals and have always loved looking after them. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, budgies and guinea pigs, and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve also taken in rescue cats, helped rehabilitate cats who needed extra patience and care, and hand-reared orphaned kittens who didn’t have their mum. These experiences have taught me how important it is to understand each animal’s individual personality, needs and routine. I’ve recently started my own independent pet-care business, LDNPAWS, offering dog walking, pop-in visits and pet sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s taking a dog out for an enjoyable walk, keeping a cat company while their owner is away, or making sure smaller pets receive the attention and care they need. Dog walking I typically offer 30-minute and 60-minute walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy levels. I love exploring London’s green spaces and regularly visit Burgess Park, Greenwich Park, Blackheath, Brockwell Park, Southwark Park and Dulwich Park. I’m also flexible about locations and happy to explore different routes depending on where you live and what your dog enjoys. I have a full driving licence and access to a car, so I’m happy to discuss travelling to different parks or walking locations. Any car journeys would always be agreed with you beforehand and depend on your dog being comfortable travelling. Pop-in visits I offer 30-minute and 60-minute visits for cats and small animals. These can include fresh food and water, cleaning litter trays where needed, playtime, companionship and any agreed care requirements. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and accommodate individual instructions. Pet sitting I also offer overnight pet sitting in your own home, allowing your pets to stay in familiar surroundings while you’re away. I’ll follow their usual feeding, care and bedtime routines and make sure they receive plenty of attention. Communication and updates I know how reassuring it is to know your pet is happy and being looked after. I aim to send photo and message updates during visits and walks, so you can see how they’re getting on. I’m happy to discuss your preferred frequency of updates beforehand. I’m fairly flexible with availability and happy to discuss regular arrangements, occasional bookings, weekends and holiday care. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m patient, attentive and happy to take the time to get to know your pet. I understand that leaving your animals in someone else’s care requires trust, so I always welcome a meet and greet beforehand to discuss their routine, personality and individual needs. I’d love to meet you and your pets!
