Oh hey there! 👋🏼 I'm Rebekah, a Canadian 🇨🇦 living in London for over a decade. I've lived in North London for many years and am really comfortable with the area. I live in Highgate, a lovely area within walking distance of parks and forests like Hampstead Heath, Highgate Wood, and the Parkland Walk - perfect for walking doggos!
Growing up I had 3x dogs (labradors/retrievers) and 2x cats. I also frequently housesit / petsit my friends cats when they go on holiday so I'm very comfortable and quite experienced looking after animals! Dogs & cats have always been a part of my life growing up and I also live alone, so while I would love to have a pet of my own, its just not a reality for me at the moment, which is why I'm so keen to help others with their animals.
I work from home most days which means if your pet needs care then they will have plenty of space and attention when staying with me! Lots of snuggles and quality time and walks in the park at lunch time!
The services I offer:
• Doggie day care, dog walking & dog boarding
• Kittie day care & cat boarding
• I can look after a dog from early morning to late afternoon, as well as give them a 1hr dog walk (if the dog requires a longer walk, we can discuss additional costs). If evenings are required this can be arranged for additional costs.
• I don't administer any medication to pets, but if the owner requires me to do so, I'm happy to.
• I can keep your pet groomed if needed
• I don't offer any training
How much time can I spend with pets:
• My job is very flexible, as I work a desk job from home, so looking after a pet works perfectly for me, as I will always be with them when looking after them.
• I'm free on most days, as well as weekends. Evenings I tend to go out or to the gym sometimes however if your pet is okay on their own for a few hours then no problems and overnight stays can also be arranged.
• Dog-boarding depends on arranging with the owner to see the times & days they want to board their dog, and we can sort it from there.
What is my home like:
• I live alone in a ground floor flat of a terrace house with no pets. I don't have a garden / balcony, but I do have a very spacious and clean flat (please see photos for reference) 🏡
• Pets are allowed to sleep anywhere in the flat they feel comfortable.
• I live:
3min walk from the Parkland Walk
10min walk from Waterlow Park
15min walk from Queens Wood

Rebekah was an absolute positive surprise as a dogsitter for our Jay. With our upcoming honeymoon and a letdown from someone else that had left us stranded, Rebekah was the first to respond to our requests with enthusiasm and availability.
Her care for Jay was exceptional. We appreciated the frequent photo updates she sent, a testament to the affection and long walks she shared with him. Upon getting him back, we noticed how well-cared for and happy he was, with a few new toys to enrich his time. It was even more delightful to discover that she had taught him a new command, showcasing her dedication to his wellbeing.
The true display of her commitment came when our flight was canceled, and she offered to take care of Jay for an extra day without hesitation. Her flexibility and love for animals were evident.
In summary, we highly recommend Rebekah as an outstanding dogsitter. Her dedication, attention to detail, and the added bonus of teaching Jay a new command left a lasting impression on us. Jay couldn't have received better care. Thank you, Rebekah!
