Hello, I am Jo, and I live with my partner Rob and two fish in Richmond. We are in our forties, animal lovers and very responsible. Currently, I am studying for my Nutritional Therapy degree and walking dogs, so I have a very flexible schedule and Rob works from home. We both grew up with dogs and cats and we are the number 1 choice for dog sitting for our friends and family.
We have a house in Richmond with a garden that has a secure fence. We would welcome any dog to stay in our cosy home whilst you are away in the summer months. We love walking and North Sheen recreational ground is only a 5-minute walk away, however, my favourite place to walk is in Richmond Park, which is only a 5-minute drive away.
I have been walking dogs with a reputable dog walking company for two years whilst studying, so I am confident in handling, training, and playing with dogs. I also love nothing more than a doggie cuddle on the sofa whilst watching a movie, so your doggie will feel loved. I will always keep you updated with lots of pictures of your beloved pet for peace of mind.
I can provide tailored services for your pet including dog walking, house sitting and daily. I like to have a meet and greet before any booking so we can all get to know each other.
Please see the frequently asked questions and breakdown of costs below. Contact me if you have any questions at all, looking forward to meeting you and your pet.
I have a full UK driving license with no convictions, a DBS background check certificate and lots of references.
Please note there is a time and half price increase for bank holidays.

Jo was fantastic looking after our very shy cat for a week. Super punctual, sends great updates each visit, and really caring and conscientious of our cat’s nervousness towards new people. Will be booking Jo again. Thank you!
Jo was great. Visited morning & evening to look after our two cats. Sent what's app message & photo and even washed up their food bowls! Lovely person and completely dependable.
