💗 A little thank you to my wonderful clients… 💗

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of my lovely clients this week for being so understanding, patient and supportive when I’ve had to cancel or rearrange appointments at short notice.

It’s been an incredibly difficult and emotional week, and your kindness has allowed me to spend precious time with a very dear friend during her final days. ❤️

And to those clients whose pets still needed me this week — thank you for letting me come and spend time with your gorgeous animals. 🐾

The dog cuddles, waggy tails and unconditional love have honestly been just what I’ve needed during such a difficult time. There’s something very special about the comfort animals can give without even knowing they’re doing it. 🥹🐶❤️

I’m so grateful to every single one of you for your kindness and understanding. It really does mean more than you know. ❤️

And of course, here are some of the beautiful faces who have helped make a difficult week a little bit brighter. 🐾💕

✨ A quick heads-up from me! ✨

I now know what my university days will look like from the beginning of October, which means I’ll need to move my availability around a little to fit everything in alongside my studies. 🎓

I’ll be in touch with all of my regulars to let you know what this means for your usual bookings. If you’re looking to book in, or just want to check what availability I have, please feel free to drop me a message! 💕

I also know I’ve not been particularly active on here lately 🙈 but I promise I’m still here and still working! Things have just been very busy recently, and with getting ready to head back to university, there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes.

So please don’t think I’ve disappeared! 😂 If you have any enquiries about my services, bookings or availability, just send me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support! 🥰

Sorry I’ve not been in touch much on here lately! 🐾❤️

I’ve actually still been keeping myself very busy behind the scenes with dog boarding, home help, companionship visits, cat visits and dog walks. 🐶🐱🏡

Then there’s keeping my own home clean and tidy (or at least attempting to 😂), staying on top of all the admin, and making sure I’m still making time for family and friends too. ❤️ So unfortunately, social media has been a bit lower down the list!

If you’re still looking for any of my services, please do get in touch. 😊 My calendar is looking a little clearer from September, so I should have some availability for new and existing clients.

Just to give everyone a little heads-up though, I’m starting back at university towards the end of September. 🎓 I don’t have my exact start date yet, but once I know my timetable, it may mean I have to restrict some of my services or availability.

I’ll keep you all posted once I know a bit more!

As always, thank you so much for all your bookings, recommendations and continued support. It really does mean a lot! 🥰🐾

✨ A little business update ✨

As many of you know, I've been incredibly busy lately (which I'm so grateful for! ❤️). However, I've realised I'm finding it harder to switch off and take some time for myself.

To help me maintain a healthy work-life balance and make sure I can continue giving my best to all of my wonderful clients, I've made the decision that I won't be replying to general messages or enquiries after 7:00pm each evening.

If I'm currently caring for your pet, doing a drop-in visit, or there's something urgent regarding a booking for the following day, I'll of course still be available to message.

Any new enquiries or non-urgent messages received after 7pm will be replied to the following morning.

I'll probably still be doing bits of admin in the background (because let's be honest... running your own business means you never really get a proper day off! 😂), but I'm making a conscious effort to protect a little time for myself too.

Thank you all so much for your understanding and continued support – it really does mean the world to me. ❤️

I finally got around to having some business cards made! 😊

The idea actually came from a lovely gentleman who stopped me while I was out walking my dog. He asked if I was "the lady from Facebook" who does dog walking and pet sitting. Unfortunately, I didn't have anything to give him with my contact details on!

That little encounter prompted me to get some business cards printed, and they're now permanently in my walking bag. So if you ever see me out and about, feel free to stop and say hello—I can actually give you my details now! 🐾

If you'd like a business card for yourself or to pass on to a friend or family member who might need pet care, home support or companionship services, just let me know and I'll happily get one to you. ❤️

One thing I’ve realised… I find it so much easier to help other people clean and tidy their homes than I do my own! 😂

My stairs didn’t even look that bad before… but I knew they needed doing. After a good vacuum, just look what came up! 😳 A whole lot of hidden dust, dirt and (mostly!) pet hair that you don’t always notice day to day.

It’s a good reminder that sometimes a little bit of extra care can make such a difference to how fresh and comfortable your home feels 🏡✨

If you need a helping hand keeping on top of your home, whether it’s cleaning, organising, home support or pet care, I’m always happy to help ❤️

Hi everyone! ☀️

Just a little update from me...

I've been away on holiday this past week, so if you've sent me a message and haven't had a reply yet, I'm so sorry! 💛

I'm travelling home today and will be spending tomorrow catching up on all of my messages, so I'll get back to everyone as soon as I can.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. I really appreciate it, and I can't wait to catch up with you all soon! 🥰

🌞 Out of Office 🌞

Just a little note to let everyone know that I'll be taking a short break and will be out of the office from 17th July until 25th July while I recharge and enjoy a well-earned holiday. 🇮🇹✈️

During this time, I may not be able to respond to messages as quickly as usual, but I'll get back to everyone as soon as I can when I return.

Thank you so much for all your continued support – it really does mean the world to my little business. ❤️ I can't wait to come back refreshed and ready to help you and your lovely pets again!

See you all soon!

Receiving messages like this honestly means the world to me. ❤️

Knowing that I've helped take a little bit of stress off someone's shoulders and made their home feel like a calmer, more relaxing place is exactly why I love what I do.

Whether it's helping around the house, supporting someone with day-to-day tasks, or caring for their pets, it's the little things that can make the biggest difference.

A huge thank you for such kind words and for trusting me to help. It never goes unnoticed, and I genuinely love being able to make a positive difference in people's lives. 🥰

🌞 You know you're a pet owner when your freezer looks like this during a heatwave! 🤣❄️

Frozen pet-safe treats, chilled tea towels and anything else to help keep our furry friends cool! 🐶🐱

A few simple ways to help your pets stay comfortable in the hot weather:
🐾 Freeze pet-safe treats or wet food.
🐾 Offer plenty of fresh, cool water.
🐾 Use a cool, damp tea towel for them to lie near or on (if they enjoy it).
🐾 Keep walks to the cooler parts of the day.

💡 Bonus tip: Pop a clean tea towel (or even a T-shirt for yourself!) in the freezer for a few minutes. It's a great way to cool down quickly during these hot days!

How are you keeping your pets cool? Let me know in the comments! 💙
