Animal lover handle with care
| As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find a responsible and caring person to look after our furry family members. I have a lovable family dog who has brought so much joy into my life and has taught me the value of unconditional love and responsibility. I am a dependable and trustworthy individual who has a genuine love for animals. I have experience taking care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors, and I always treat them with the same care and attention that I give my own pets. I am also comfortable administering medication if necessary, as I understand the importance of following specific pet care instructions. I believe that pets are an important part of the family and deserve the best care possible. I am committed to providing exceptional pet care services and ensuring that all pets in my care feel loved, safe, and happy.

The only Kat your Dog will Absolutely love is Kat! Kat has watched our mini Dachshund Olly for the last two days so we could tour around Edinburgh. Kat sent us photos of Olly enjoying his day, her messages and Ollys joy at seeing her each day made us feel we left our baby in the right caring and loving hands. She is a fantastic communicator and will love your pet likely just like you would. If I lived here she would be my go to pet sitter. If she is available to watch your pet I would grab her. Kat also did a beautiful drawing of Olly that had my wife in tears."

Looking for Dog Walking/Dog Sitting Positions in Edinburgh :)
| Hi there, My name is Sarah, 29, and with plenty of experience caring for and owning dogs (I had a cockapoo named Bailey, and he was a tremendous part of our family for 19 years), I can guarantee that I will care for and love your pet as if it were my own! My pet care experience started all the way back when I was in my early teens, and I would go around walking all of the neighbour's dogs; absolutely loved it! Since then, I have looked after dogs of all different shapes & sizes, personalities & moods! If your dog needs a walk, it will involve lots of chatting, pats and treats (if allowed - otherwise just lots of attention). If your dog needs day/overnight care, it will involve whatever they need to be comfortable - cuddles, play time or to just sit in quiet company. I know what your pet means to you because I know what mine meant to me. And I know the kind of care and attention I would want my own dog to have, and that's exactly what I can offer you :) I am currently working from home as a writer and have a flexible schedule, as well as live near the Meadows. Please message me if you would like to chat more. Happy to provide references and any other info you might need. Thanks - Sarah

I have in the past worked with dogs at a dog day care facility in Edinburgh, but unfortunately couldn't get enough hours so glad to leave, but I wish to keep working with dogs on a part time basis as I miss the job satisfaction you get back from dogs also wish to increase my income, and so, dog/puppy sitting seems to make sense, as its what I'm good at. I have also had dogs all my life, I have 4 at present and also volunteer at the local greyhound kennels on a Sunday.

I am energetic and flexible, absolutely adore animals which are in my opinion better than people.
| My love for animals stems from having grown up with dogs and cats and so my experience goes all the way back to my childhood. In the past 4 years I have owned 7 rats and have worked for several dog sitting websites. I have taken care of many different breeds and ages and always do my best to accommodate the needs of each individual animal. I understand that giving over your pet child to a stranger can be very stressful and will do my best to make it as easy for you as possible.

Home from home care for your little fur angels!
| Hi! I started up my business as I just love all animals (especially dogs!) I’ve grew up with them all my life. Coming to me will guarantee a home from home experience for your fur babies. (They just get to get a little more muddy, but don’t worry as your angels never come home muccy or stinky) I am unfortunately not taking anymore non-neutered males as this tends to mess up the dynamics of the group and like to mark in my home due to the number of pooches who have come before them!
