🐾 Hello! I'm Liv and my approach to pet care is: dogs deserve to be dogs. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy and free to explore, play, sniff and enjoy themselves at their own pace.

For walks, I prioritise enrichment over simply covering distance. I choose stimulating environments where dogs can safely explore different sights, smells and textures, with plenty of opportunities for sniffing, investigating and engaging with their surroundings. I adapt every walk to the individual dog, taking into account their age, personality, energy levels, confidence and any triggers or specific needs they may have.

During pet sitting and daytime care, I aim to provide more than just the basics. I create a varied and enriching day through walks, play, scent games, mental stimulation, training, cuddles and plenty of opportunities to relax. I believe dogs benefit from having a balance of activity, exploration and downtime, rather than being expected to be constantly entertained.

For puppies and young dogs, I’m also happy to work alongside your existing training plans and reinforce the skills you are already teaching at home. Whether that involves practising recall, loose-lead walking, settling, basic cues or building confidence in new environments, I will follow your guidance and keep training positive, consistent and rewarding.

I also volunteer with Dogs Trust, which has given me valuable experience around dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviours and needs. This experience has strengthened my understanding of responsible, compassionate and individualised dog care.

Above all, I want owners to feel confident that their dogs are not simply being supervised while they’re away, they’re being genuinely cared for, understood and given the opportunity to have a fun, enriching day.

Thankyou for reading 🐶
