March is Pet Anxiety Month, and today specifically is Dogs In Yellow Day. As an ambassador for this important cause, I feel compelled to share why it matters so deeply to me.

Having experienced debilitating anxiety as a teenager, I know firsthand what anxiety feels like. If I could have worn an 'anxious' sash back then, I would haveβ€”it might have helped others understand what I was going through without explanation.

Research has consistently shown that dogs experience emotions like anxiety in ways remarkably similar to humans. They feel fear, stress, and nervousness just as intensely as we do, but unlike us, they can't verbalise their feelings. This is why the Dogs In Yellow movement uses visual cues to signal that a dog needs space.

By educating fellow humans about reading dog body language and respecting their boundaries, we can create a safer, less stressful world for our four-legged companions.

When you see a dog wearing yellow, remember it's not just a fashion statementβ€”it's a communication tool. Give them space, avoid direct approaches, and ask the owner before interacting. These simple courtesies can make an enormous difference in the quality of life for an anxious dog.

Does your dog experience anxiety? Consider trying a yellow harness, lead, lead slip, collar OR for humans NEED SPACE t-shirt/jumper to help communicate their needs to others. The simple act of adding this visual cue can transform your walks from stressful encounters to peaceful outings. Remember, advocating for your dog's emotional wellbeing isn't just compassionateβ€”it's responsible pet ownership. Together, we can create a more understanding community for all dogs, especially those who need a little extra space to feel safe.

Pet care success isn't about magic or quick fixesβ€”it's about genuine partnerships between me (Aunty Shan) and pet parents. The most effective care plans evolve over time and require active participation from everyone involved.

The care updates in this collage are from parents I've successfully been collaborating with for a long time.

What truly makes a difference in pet care quality:

πŸ• Ongoing communication beyond the initial onboarding forms

πŸ• Giving caregivers adequate time to prepare & adjust to new information

πŸ• Regular feedback on what's working and what needs adjustment

πŸ• Room to modify routines as pets age, develop new preferences, or face challenges

πŸ• Understanding that some pets require frequent routine updates

πŸ• Understanding that professional experience alone isn't enoughβ€”each pet is unique

πŸ• Recognition that even experienced caregivers need context and collaboration

πŸ• Willingness to collaborate on solutions when challenges arise

The parents who see the best results understand that exceptional care is collaborative. When parents and I work together to create and refine care plans, pets receive truly personalised attention that addresses their unique needs.

This approach takes more effort than a "set it and forget it" mindset, but the results speak for themselves: happier, healthier pets and stronger relationships all around.

24 hours with Roo (6 months old) and her hooman mom 🀍

I've now been the Dog Carer for these Bajan rescues Axel, Libre and Theo since October 2023. They recently got a new Bajan sibling named Roo 🦘

I spent time with their hooman mom bonding and getting to know Roo & learning new parts of the daily routine. I am really grateful for the time their hooman mom dedicates showing me the ropes as and when things change. Nothing is ever too much.

Mom sent me a sweet message whilst she was out πŸ₯ΉπŸ€

We will be reunited later on this month πŸ₯³

Hi 😊

I'm Aunty Shan, a full-time dog carer dedicated to providing 24-hour 1:1 experienced care for your pets, so you can enjoy 'you' time without worry.

In 2023, I left my full-time job after 16 years in various sectors (social services, NHS and education) to devote my life to dogs. They are my passion and priority.

Most of the dogs I look after are rescues, but I also look after non-rescue dogs. Currently, I'm open to taking on new dogs as some of my regulars have left or are soon leaving London or the UK.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Aunty Shan 🐢🀍

Everyone say πŸ‘‹ to Henry 🐢

I have been following Henry's page since February last year, so I was over the moon when his pawrent messaged me to book a meet and greet, to take care of Henry in the future.

We had a delightful mooch around his local community, visited the pub, cafe and even enjoyed a Starbucks Puppuccino experience together 🀩

Henry is a very sweet boy who welcomed me immediately and in no time was wiggling his butt enjoying back scratchies and asking for cuddles and loves πŸ₯Ή

I look forward to taking good care of Henry soon 🫢

What took so long, you ask? Well, my first year in business has been a whirlwind! I am incredibly grateful for all of you. Between learning the ropes and caring for your wonderful dogs full time, when they are asleep or I have free time, I also support other business owners as their Virtual Assistant part time.

Sure, I could have hired someone to create my website, but I wanted it to be a true reflection of meβ€”authentic and genuine. This project has been a real labour of love. The designing of it and all the techy bits I had to learn. I can't even begin to tell you how much research I did, how many demo websites I created and scrapped, and even tried out AI versions. At one point, I was overwhelmed with a hundred ideas and had to take a break. But I came back stronger, and here it is!
