I have volunteered as a dog walker for The Cinnamon Trust since 2017 and have been dogsitting since 2018. I am fully insured. I am canine first aid trained, having completed a course provided by Pet Owners First Aid, and have a certificate in Animal Psychology and Behaviourism (CPD and IAP accredited). I have experience caring for dogs of a wide variety of breeds, ages, sizes, and needs. People often comment on the ease with which I bond with dogs and earn their trust. I live in a ground floor flat with my partner. There are no stairs which makes it especially suitable for older dogs or those who struggle with stairs for other reasons. It's a quiet, calm household and we have no children or pets of our own. I don't have a garden, but there is shared outdoor grassy space for toilet breaks, and I am a five minute walk from a large park. Depending on individual behaviour/requirements and your own rules, I'm happy to allow the dogs I look after in all rooms and on furniture. My priority is that they are relaxed and comfortable. I have space for a crate in my kitchen so can easily crate your dog if needed. I have a camera set up so I can check on your dog if I need to leave the house during their stay.
