Hiya! My name is Lavinia, I am 35 years old and have lived in Harrogate for 4 years with my partner and our daschund (a cheeky chap called Marley). I love all animals and regularly look after clients dogs and cats. I look after a cocker spaniel puppy on a weekly basis and teach him basic commands as well as exposing him to new environments. I also look after many cats including rescues who I have built a beautiful bond with over time. I grew up having guinea pigs, budgies, rabbits, hamsters and fish - I love all animals! 

My own daxie, Marley, is 4 years old and we regularly go on hikes exploring Yorkshire together. It is in his nature to be a little nervous of new people, so I am very used to animals that prefer a laid back introduction. 

I am a trustee for the DMTDRSG (A charity which rescues Dacshunds from the meat trade and puppy farms in Asia), animal welfare is something I am very passionate about 🫶

I work from home full time and I am self employed so I can be very flexible with hours & days of visits.  I have a full clean UK driving license - I strap Marley in using a harness which clips into the seat belt and I am more than happy to transport your pets to and from your home to make life easier. 

I'm extremely reliable, trustworthy and happy to provide references 😊 also fully DBS checked ✔️ 

I can also do little jobs around the house where required such as bringing in mail, watering plants, administering medicine to your pet etc. 

I will send regular updates and photos and spend quality time with your pet (not just rushing in/out for a feed). 

Look forward to hearing from you and please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. I do request a quick meet and greet prior to booking - hope that's okay! X
