About me

Welcome to Taya’s Dog Walking and Pet Sitting, which has been established for over 3 years caring for a range of pets. I have been caring for animals all my life and have been looking after other people’s pets professionally since 2017. I understand that pets are more than just pets, they are your friend, your comfort and part of your life so I will treat them as you do.

I have completed my City & Guilds level 2 Technical certificate in animal care, where I studied animal welfare, behaviour, exercise and health and working alongside many rescue animals ranging from dogs to meerkats to snakes and even goats! My previous experience includes training and dog behaviour, as well as dog first aid which will help me look after your furry family members as if they are my own. I’ve previously worked in a dog groomers, dog boarders, on a farmyard and as a dog trainer for assistance dogs so I have learnt a lot along the way and have enjoyed every bit of it!

I am fully insured by protectivity insurance which covers Public Liability, loss of keys and equipment cover and care custody and control (liability to animals).

Your pet is part of your family and can be your ‘best friend’, and it is important for both owner and pet to be happy. Whether due to busy lifestyle, work commitments, going on holiday or other stays away from home you may not always be able to give your pet the attention you know is required. Which is exactly why I began my pet care business, to do what I love and enjoy the most. 

Home pet visits are 20-30 minutes

I offer a pet visit service, from hamsters to horses and all things in between. whether that be a cat, small or large animal or reptile to name a few.

I’ll visit your pet in the comfort of their own home for either one, two or three visits a day (more can be requested if needed).

They will be fed, water top up, cages/trays cleaned, and health checked. Whether you want to enjoy a day out or a holiday, I will visit your home to care for your pet/s and maintain their daily routines. Your pet/s will get lots of fuss and attention and when we’re done, we’ll secure your home and carry out light duties such as pulling on curtains, watering plants etc if requested.

This service is great if your pet is elderly, recuperating from an illness/injury or just doesn’t need a long walk as I can provide toilet break visits. Puppies too! This is perfect for those who have just had a new furry friend join their family but have plans and can’t find someone to pop in during their time left at home. I can provide a short walk around the area if requested in the visit and give them some play time and that much needed puppy attention!

I am trained in pet first aid, animal care, handling and have a genuine passion for animals so, you can be stress free and not have to worry as your pet will be in safe hands while you are away. You’ll also get frequent updates on how your pets are doing to ensure this.
