About Phil

I always ensure I provide great overall care by observing and assisting pet surroundings, behaviour, spending a good amount of time to gain trust and staying in touch with parents for updates such as pics/videos/messages.

I have used various services successfully such as borrowmydoggy and rover as my main motivation is I enjoy long walks as I find it a very relaxing and motivating task to unwind. I can generally do longer 2hr+ walks and more time assisting pets with no extra charge!

I can cat board only and can't dog board. Please message first and I can make this option available. 

CATS 😺
I take a mindful and attentive approach with cat care. Such as ensuring they feel safe around me by allowing time for them to approach and give me permission to touch them. 

I can cat sit in my home, I have a large flat where I live alone and is very clean and comfortable, however it would ideally be suitable for cats that dont bite plants and happy in new environments. I have non toxic plants to cats but ideally we dont want them ingesting things they shouldnt!


While feeding cats, I like to ensure they have:

  • Cleaned bowls after every meal
  • Fresh water ideally slightly away from food
  • Adding small amount of water to wet food to encourage more liquid in their diet if needed. 
  • Breaking down some treats and adding to dry food for variety. 
  • Use ceramic or stainless steel bowls with wide circumference to prevent whisker fatigue. 

Care & Stimulation:

  • Depending on personalities I like to play with cats using toys and rewarding with pets or treats. 
  • Providing a calm, quiet & safe space by chilling with them and allowing them to sit with me.
  • At the minimum I always make sure litter trays are cleared up daily and ideally after every use. 
  • Depending on cat needs I try to groom them with a brush every 2-3 days. 
  • Clear and clean any bedding daily and deep clean litter trays every week. 

DOGS 🦮

I enjoy playing with dogs that have more adventurous personalities and taking it slow with more easy going needs such as providing longer walks, regular visits and time to sit together.

I particularly enjoy and can provide longer calm walks 2+ hours with no extra charge for dogs that need more outdoor time!

I'm an active and attentive dog walker where I will take note from owners instructions beforehand of importance such as off lead walking, personalities and how well socialised they are.

Areas I am familiar dog walking 🌳

  • Greenwich Park, Greenwich Peninsula, Mudchute.
  • Oxleas Woods, Shrewsbury Park, Eltham Common.
  • Lesnes Abbey, Southmere Park.
  • Plumstead Common, Winns Common.
  • Woolwich Common, Gallions Park, East Wickham.
  • Victoria Park, Hackney Marshes, Queen Elizabeth Park, Walthamstow Wetlands.
  • Battersea Park, Hyde Park.
  • Crystal Palace.

Whilst dog walking I ensure I can provide:

  • Poop bags to clean up after them. 
  • Some treats with permission from owners.
  • Lots of fresh water and bowls.
  • Notes of emergency contact and dietary needs. 
  • Suggestions of areas I think they would enjoy visiting and follow paths given by owners. 

Thanks for reading! ✌️
