Hi beautiful people! Im a cypriot girl based in London the last 7 years. I grew up with animals , mainly cats and dogs. My first dog was named Pluto (classic right) and was a Labrador golden retriever ( my baby 🥹) . My first experience with animals was when i was a newborn as my grandmother owned a dog and a cat. During Covid i had the opportunity to care, for a year and a half, on a daily basis of two beautiful brothers, Italian greyhounds, called Tango and Tequila and a super clever cat called Max. Tango suffered from seizures and was one-eye blinded so he got all the extra love he needed. I would give him oral medication three times a day.

That's when I decided to get into pet sitting, dog walking professionally!

Im flexible depending on the week. I usually work 3-4 times a week. The rest i like to train, dance, read, meditate, go on walks etc

Since i have a lot of time for myself during the week, I enjoy going on a dog walk or even visiting the owner's house to spend time with any pets. I also, stay overnight if necessary at a pet owner's house. Priority for me is hygiene, and for the pet to feel safe and grounded. I can administer oral medication as well as handle a pet with epileptic shocks.

Walks are usually up to an hour long if the dog is happy to keep going, and no more than 2 dogs at a time. I offer up to 6 dog walks a day; 2 morning , 2 afternoon and 2 evening slots.

House drop in visits are usually between 20mins-1hour depending on the needs of the pet. That includes providing food for the pet, cleaning their area and spending some quality time with them. I've got 4 available slots throughout the day.

I always make sure to listen to the owner’s advice and instructions. The most important thing is for the pet to feel safe in its environment so the less change in habits the better
