Dog Sitting

I offer reliable and caring dog walking and house sitting services, giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. As a member of NarpsUK, I am committed to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism within the pet care industry. I am fully insured, DBS (CRB) checked, and trained in pet first aid, ensuring your pets are not only happy and well-exercised but also safe in any situation. Whether it’s daily walks or staying in your home to provide dedicated care, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with kindness, attention, and respect for their routine.

A spacious, tidy garden of a semi-detached Glossop home, enclosed by secure wooden fencing and mature hedges, with a medium-sized collie joyfully chasing a bright yellow tennis ball across well-kept grass. A sturdy, locked gate is visible in the background alongside a clearly marked garden storage box for leads and toys. Late afternoon golden light warms the scene, casting long, gentle shadows and giving the dog’s fur a rich, vibrant sheen. Captured from a slightly low angle, the ball is mid-air with the dog in focused motion, while the secure perimeter remains clearly visible. The photographic realism style and balanced composition emphasize both playful exercise and the safety-focused professionalism of the dog sitting service.

A small chalkboard on the bedside table shows a handwritten pet care schedule with feeding and walking times clearly visible. Warm bedside lamp light pools gently across the room, mixing with faint twilight blue from a partially open window, creating a secure, cared-for feeling. Shot from a low, three-quarter angle with the dog in the foreground and the schedule in gentle focus behind, the composition reinforces attentive, professional in-home pet care in a clean, photographic realism style.

Caring For Dogs At Home

Based in Glossop, I offer one-to-one walks and home visits, following your instructions exactly. I prioritise safety, gentle handling, and clear communication, so your dog can relax in familiar surroundings while you’re away.

I’ve lived in Glossop, Derbyshire since emigrating from South Africa in 1998, with animals at the heart of my life. From dogs and feral cats to birds, hamsters, fish, and a tortoise, caring for a diverse menagerie taught me empathy and respect for every creature.

After leaving office work in 2009, I began volunteering at a local veterinary practice and soon joined a reputable pet care business. In 2015, I founded my own company Scamps-Petcare in Lincolnshire, building trusted relationships with clients and their pets.

After 11 years, I am now back in Glossop. I bring over sixteen years of professional experience and a lifelong passion for providing reliable, compassionate care for pets in the comfort of their own homes.
