Jane

Hello. Thank you for reading my profile. My name is Jane and I am an experienced dog sitter of 7 years + 12 years of experience with my own dog.

I learn and do a lot of research about different breeds. Before your dog’s stay, I familiarise myself with your dog's breeds characteristic, temperament, needs, trainability, etc. Once your dog is here, I take some time to observe their behaviour at first. Some want to stay on their own a lot, and some need a lot of attention - I will adjust myself accordingly.

If it’s your dog's first time and they’re a bit nervous at first, I play a special track that is created specifically for the dogs. It helps them to calm down. 

I will treat your dog as if it’s my own by giving them a lot of love and cuddles (if that’s what they desire) and I respect their nature, but I’m also making sure that I am not being too soft. We have a couple of house rules and most dogs respect them wholeheartedly and if they are not, we go through a bit of training.

I had a standard white poodle who was specially bred, trained and groomed for the dog shows. She was a proud owner of 12 gold medals and only one 2nd place (if nature calls, you gotta do what you gotta do!). She has mated abroad with another champion and they had a great offspring who continued their legacy throughout the years. That being said, I know what it takes to train a dog and how important it is for their mental health to have them properly trained. If I notice that there is a major lack in your dog’s training, I will humbly let you know about that so that you can work on that. It will benefit both you and your dog long term. 

We have a 2 bedroom attached house in a quiet cul-de-sac area with a small back garden and a few parks close by. My house is always clean and organised and I've made it safe for the dogs, meaning there's nothing that could hurt them. I don’t have small children or our own dog, so your beloved pet will have a quiet, stress-free stay with us. My son is 14 years old and he adores animals. He’s very gentle and responsible with them. 

I am self-employed and I work from home, however, when your dog is here, my attention is on them at all times. All pets are supervised 24/7. If I know that I have to leave the house, I will let you know this beforehand, but I will never be gone more than 30 minutes. Usually, I will wait until my son gets home, and then I will go and run the errands. If it’s a daycare and not a last-minute booking, I usually don’t leave the house at all.

I can do occasional dog sitting at your home or visit daily and walk your dog if it's not too far. We live in a B18 area. Please note that each time I come to you (meet & greet included), I'd kindly ask for a £4 contribution towards the travelling expenses. If it's twice a day visit, it'll be £4 total.

Each pet owner must fill out a form which I will either hand to you on our meet & greet or email to you if there is no meet & greet. That will help me to learn more about your dog and their habits and make sure that they will continue getting the same feeding/walking etc schedule whilst they’re here.

Sorry, I don't accept dogs who aren’t vaccinated, potty trained or who bark excessively (thinking of neighbours), as well as the ones who haven’t gotten any training at all. I accept puppies who are potty trained. Other than that, all dogs are welcome and enjoy their stress-free stay with us! ❤️🐶🐩🐕 🐾 🐾🐾

Please note, that dog boarding is for 24 hours and daycare is for 8 hours. 1 hour overtime is perfectly fine with me, but if it's 2 or more than 2 hours, there'll be an hourly charge of £5. Thank you for understanding!
