Hello everyone,

For all my clients that I have had since august you’ll know that I’ve been training very hard to complete this years marathon and I’ve done it !!!

Crossed the line yesterday in a time of 5hours 38 minutes I am beyond happy that I got round and that the training is over 🤣

I decided to run this marathon again to not only celebrate my 21st and mums 50th but also to raise money for a charity that has helped my family so much over the years with my Grandad 💙If you could spare anything please donate to my Enthuse page I’d be so grateful

So I realised I’ve not actually updated this page this year so quick update for you all 💓

January I turnt 21 in Rome! My puppy is not a puppy anymore, I have finished my degree and I’ve looked after some lovely doggies in the process!

I am fully booked untill May! However some good news !! I have told all of my clients I have closed my books for summer due to not knowing what I am doing with my life (when do you have an idea what you want to do with your life cause I’m still very confused) but I will infact be here this summer and books have opened back up untill September! So anyone who I have recently turnt away for summer if your dates fit around the below then I’ll happily book in for those who wasn’t booked before 2023 my new prices have come in for the year and I’m now £35 a day term time and £40 a day during school holidays

Booked
June 22nd (I will be at Ascot for the day so if you can get day cover this is still a possibility)
July 20th - 27th
August 1st - 15th

If you would like to book in from June - end of august please message me and I’ll hopefully squeeze you in!

I can’t thank all of my amazing clients enough for trusting me, I honestly haven’t needed to do any outreach for clients this year because I’ve been so booked up and that’s all thanks to you sharing the word out, it’s massively helped with my travel savings and hopefully it won’t be too much longer until I’m living up to my dreams in travelling the world x

There are two types of dogs at Christmas !

The ones (Enzo) who get excited watching the Nativity

And the ones (Honey) who cover their eyes and pretend to sleep through it 🤣

Second Christmas with these two beauties 💓

29/09/2023

I just love golden retrievers they’re always so happy !!

Out for a long day and don’t want to rush back for the dogs ?? I now do 30 mins drop ins for £15. We play, I give them fuss and run around for 30 mins to stretch their legs and let them go to the toilet !

If they are golden retrievers you also get a mini grooming service look at the hair I got from a few belly rubs in picture 3/4!

Back in August I had the pleasure of looking after the cutest 2 golden retrievers

We wasn’t very happy with all the rain of August but we did have the sun shine down on us on some days. I think September has had better weather than August this year !!

26/04/2023

Looking forward to a fully booked March and seeing all my other wonderful doggy clients

20/02/2023

Spent the week with these little cuties, it was a return visit to this house as I also looked after them in summer, it’s where my page began and grew!

2 dogs Ruby and Luna who received cuddles every hour on the hour they’re such friendly little doggies

Arthur the tortoise who is the size of my hand smallest tortoise I’ve ever looked after!

Dobby the rabbit who is currently inside for winter. I had lots of cuddles with him when I could offer Kale otherwise he wasn’t too interested in me!

And finally 7 chickens ! I enjoyed the scrambled eggs and omelettes I was able to make with their eggs soon became the highlight of my day ! 😂😂

Now fully booked for March !

06/02/2023

Busy week last week (29th-5th) looking after these four beauties Ted, Scarlett, Olive and Saffron 🐶

Little Ted had me for two days of dog sitting. We had a lovely Sunday walk over to the duck pond, he definitely gets everyone’s attention with how fluffy and cute he is strutting around the park!

Then this weekend I got to look after the lovely SOS beagles. We went for a lovely Sunday morning walk yesterday and beat everyone out so had the roads to ourself, first time taking three dogs out at once so grateful for the extra room we had! Once we got back we cuddled on the sofa together till their mum and dad got home !

Please check my page for availability I’m filling up super fast and there’s only one of me so avoid disappointment now!

2024 calendar please message I have very limited availability

I am fully insured, hold a clear DBS check April 2022 and have references on my page.

My Rates for over night stays minimum charge £60
£30 per day housesitting NO pets
£35 per day for overnight house sitting with pets

All overnight stays must be within 45 minutes from Upminster, I am flexible with start times but my fees for overnight are a flat rate. For clients over this we can discuss an increased rate.

My rates for day petsitting minimum charge is £22.50
Per hour £7.50

Day clients are limited to under a 25 minute drive from Upminster.

What’s included !
Daily pictures aswell as piece of mind that your home and pets are safe and secure.

Overnight stays with dogs - 30 minutes per day of walking, if your dog requires more than 30 minutes daily I will go out for 1 hour with the additional fee of £5

Day dog sitting - For clients who will need me for more than 5 hours I will include a 30 minute walk however if the dog sitting is 3-4hours an additional charge of £5 will be added

If your dog has known behavioural issues and it’s not stated to me before we book the job I hold the right to cancel any booking at any time. If your dog has a history of behavioural issues on walks then a muzzle will need to be provided. At no point will I let a dog off lead even if you can assure me that they have impeccable recall. Ultimately it’s for the safety of your dog, not all dogs will recall the same to me as it does to owners and other dogs may be reactive and I may not be able to step in therefore I don’t run the risk.

I do not require any deposits I book clients in on a trust basis, if you have a change of plans 48hrs I’m advance to me coming then I ask you pay me 25% of the job total. Same day cancellation I will charge 75%. Failure to compensate my lost time will result in me removing you from my client list. I do ask that I am paid the full amount on the first day. No extra charge on school holidays but an extra £10 is added to bank holiday bookings

Cameras - I understand I will be in your home and this may cause concern, I am more than happy for you to have a ring doorbell, external property cameras and cameras in the living areas I.E kitchen and sitting rooms. Camera outside of these areas I.E bathroom/bedroom will be handed over to the police

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me

Spent the afternoon with this gorgeous boy!

Greyhounds have definitely gone up on my favourite dogs list just look how cute he is !

06/01/2023

Spent this week the gorgeous Ted as you can see he looks like a real life teddy bear !

He is such a character I laughed every day at him ! Ted is a slightly older dog who is more comfortable in his own home, it can be stressful for older dogs to go somewhere strange for a week so if you’re worried about your older dog who may be abit nervous in new surroundings drop me a message 🙂

Daily updates are sent to owners of their gorgeous animals. Ted got the ultimate Prince treatment in all his blankets 💓

03/01/2023

Bit late to posting but I had the pleasure of looking after these two beauties the lovely Honey and Enzo just before Christmas

I’d like to wish all my clients a happy new year, hope you all had a lovely Christmas and look forward to seeing you all in 2023 !

My favourite kind of petsitting Tuesday night looking after the lovely 3 year old coco.

If you want to go out for the evening but are worried at what havoc the puppy may do! Drop me a message and I can come watch the little rascals.

Very lucky that coco is abit more grown up and wanted to cuddle all evening instead. However,
I have owned a dog for 13 years and have been around all breeds while growing up, I’m very knowledgeable on how to handle all breeds and ages.

Prices vary with the distance and hours needed 🙂

Hello,

I am Emily, I am based in Upminster, Essex. I started house sitting for family/friends when I was 16 and have now seen it as an increased opportunity to turn my services into a small business. I am currently completing my degree apprenticeship and have flexibility about my time working from home, due to this flexibility I have decided to expand my services to become more frequent.

I have 6 years total work experience. 3 years as a stable hand at a local equine business working to a high standard of national level competition horses, 6 months in the hospitality industry and 3 years working in a London office between policy writing, media regulations and HR teams. I have also baby sat and house sat from the age of 16.

I have grown up with animals my whole life so for those who have pets I am well equipped to also look after them while you are away and send daily updates to you and the family.

I can provide a clear DBS check dated in April 2022. I own my car and have driven for 2 years with a clean licence so happy to travel.

Prices to be discussed on enquiry and deposit of 5% will be required before booking in.
