About me.....

Hi, my name is Gaye and I would love to care for your special companion and give the love and attention to them, that they get from you, whilst you are away. Home from home 😊

I am a retired PS living southside so I have all my time to give to your beautiful friend. I live on my own in a single storey home, which is comfortable, clean and has gardens that are secure and well fenced so your pet will be 100% safe (please check out the photos!). I do spend time away and looking after family pets, hence my calendar looks full and it has prevented me from receiving return clients. But life is for living 😁. Come and say hello and you will see the loving environment I offer.

Background: I have a lifetime of caring for animals, having been brought up with dogs, cats and a budgerigar! With my own family, we had 2 border collie crosses, a tabby cat, rabbits and guinea pigs. My daughters now have their own dogs and when they go away I look after their doggies for them which is always such a joy!

Motivation: I sadly lost my beautiful border collie, Fergus, 2 years ago. He was nearly 16 years old. I miss him so much. My motivation to join Pawshake was to be able to enjoy the company of a four legged friend. I thought that I could help out those wishing to go away knowing their beautiful companions are being looked after with love. I walk from my home that has access to a number of local walks straight from my door.

Services offered: Dog Boarding: to give love, company and care to doggies; to go for walks; to have play time; to administer medication if required; to create a calm and happy place for your special companion.

Requirements: 

● Small to medium breeds only (not "toy/minature" breeds as I'd worry they'd get under the deck, also <25kg)

● Doggies less than 10 years old

● Non barking doggies for the sake of my neighbours sanity 😆

●Vacinated and wormed doggies

 ● House trained doggies if indoor living required 

● No chewers thanks!

● Non aggressive temperament (good with children >8yo if grandkids should visit)

 ● Food and treats to be supplied by owner along with a list of feeding schedule

● Any information about your doggie to be able to understand their character plus commands you use for your buddy

In Conclusion: I would love to be considered to look after your special family member. A meet and greet beforehand would be great to put our minds at rest! Have a wonderful day!
