Why your pet will love Lucy

Now, nearly 20 years later, I have a log cabin that acts as a dog-friendly creche so they can chill out with me whilst I work from home Tuesday-Thursday!! My garden is the perfect size for approx. 3 large dogs to comfortably potter around in too!! Of course, alongside this, dogs that | look after are welcome in all areas of my home if they prefer.

I regularly dog-sit my aunties' 4 greyhounds when they are working away or on holidays. I had a greyhound called Tilly (she passed last year). She was the absolute love of my life and got pampered more than me! I am especially good with older dogs that need extra support.

Your pet's space

House · 2400 m²

Fenced garden · 20 m²

A loving family home; just myself, my mum and my brother live at home and are obsessed with dogs! Each week, I work part-time Tuesday-Thursday, and I am completely free Monday, Friday-Sunday. My job is entirely working from home, so I usually relocate to my log cabin at the bottom of my garden. This ensures any pets can potter around as they wish and are free to come and go whether inside the cabin or my house. I wake up at 7 am each day to walk min. 30 mins and have an hour lunch break, which I love to walk during this too. Above all, I am happy to shuffle around my day/week to suit your pet's needs, e.g. feeding times, walking patterns. The most important thing to me is that your pet is comfy and at ease so will happily accommodate. At the bottom of my garden, I have a spacious log cabin with a sofa (that turns into a sofa bed), TV and kitchenette for pets to come and chill out in whilst I work from home Tuesday-Thursday. My house is suitable for 3 large dogs at a time. Also, I have a back garden that is perfect for dogs to potter around in as it is fully enclosed by an approx. 2.5 m-tall hedge and fencing. I prioritise dog walks as I have found this is the best way to bond with them and see their personality shine through! Please let me know of any special requirements your dog may need! Eg. - walk length - any illnesses/pain they are experiencing - feeding time/amount - how they are with other dogs when out walking - are they potty trained? - can they walk off the lead?

Exceptional reliability with fast responses and great track record

I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible care Lucy and her family provided for my beloved cockerpoo, Coco. From the moment I reached out, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and is dedicated to their well-being. During Coco’s stay, Lucy treated him as if he were her own. Providing daily walks that kept him active and happy, and I loved receiving regular pictures and updates about their adventures together. It was such a comfort to know that Coco was not just being cared for, but was also entertained and engaged throughout his time with them. Lucy’s attention to detail and affectionate approach truly made a difference. Coco returned home healthy, happy, and with a wagging tail, which speaks volumes about the love and care he received. I wholeheartedly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you, Lucy, for making Coco’s stay so special!♡

Lucy is an outstanding dog sitter who treated my cockerpoo, Coco, as if he were her own. She provided daily walks, engaged him in fun activities, and kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind. Her genuine love for dogs and attention to detail truly set her apart. Coco returned home happy and healthy, and I couldn't have asked for better care. I wholeheartedly recommend Lucy to any pet parent looking for a reliable and caring sitter. ♡

Lucy is such a caring and sensible young lady who is extremely trustworthy. She has her own greyhound which she has lovingly cared for & nurtured. She has gained a wealth of experience and patience from helping her own dog overcome anxiety. She is 100% reliable & just absolutely loves dogs. I would trust her with any dog as she would look after them and care about them like they were her own.
