My name is Liudmyla, and I am originally from Ukraine. Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with dogs and have many years of personal experience caring for them, so looking after animals comes very naturally to me.

My availability and how I care for your dog

I live in a flat close to Cheam Park and I am happy to offer a flexible and personal service depending on you and your dog’s needs.

If you live within walking distance, I can collect your dog from your home and bring them back after their walk or stay with me. Alternatively, you are very welcome to drop your dog off and collect them from my home.

I am currently available all day on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. On Mondays and Tuesdays, I am available after 4:00 pm.

I can provide dog walking, daytime care and home visits. Walks and visits can be arranged according to your dog’s normal routine and individual needs, and I am happy to discuss the length of walks with each owner.

I can look after small and medium-sized dogs in my home during the day, but I do not currently offer overnight boarding. Dogs staying with me will be supervised and cared for in a calm, safe home environment.

I can care for a maximum of three dogs at the same time, so that every dog receives plenty of individual attention, affection and supervision.

I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and preferences, and I will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, behaviour and any special requirements. My priority is for every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, happy and loved.

Before coming to the UK, I lived for some time in Poland, where I also looked after dogs. I speak Ukrainian, Russian and Polish, as well as some English.

I have now been living in the UK for around 10 months and during this time I have regularly looked after dogs for friends as well as clients. I have experience with dogs of very different sizes, breeds and personalities — from small dogs such as Miniature Pinschers to Golden Retrievers and energetic Border Collies.

I genuinely love dogs and really enjoy spending time with them. Dogs usually become comfortable with me very quickly, and I treat every dog with patience, affection and respect. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine and needs, and I always follow the owner's instructions carefully.

I am responsible, punctual, tidy and dependable. I can help with dog walking, feeding, companionship, playtime and general day-to-day care. I am also happy to look after a dog while their owner is away, depending on the individual arrangements.

Most importantly, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet with another person. I will always care for your dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while they are with me.
