Hello I'm Hayley 👋 I'm a young professional working from home and together with my partner Mark we have a 10-year old greyhound Sadie 🥰 We love dogs and have a soft spot for sighthounds and their quirky mannerisms. After minding a few different dogs on occasion we have decided to join Pawshake and open our home to more four-legged visitors. We love taking dogs to the beach, the park or a nice stroll around the neighborhood.
We live in a lovely residential area with a fully fenced backyard. Any overnight visitors are able to sleep in our sitting room or if they prefer to be near human company, they can sleep on the floor in our bedroom.
We have previously minded multiple dogs at one time and are happy to share our couch 😂 For boarding and daycare, we plan to be home most of the time so the dogs will not be left alone for more than 2 hours. Should there be any changes to that, you will be notified.
***Right now we will see only take bookings for sighthounds for boarding/day care (greyhounds, lurchers, whippets, deerhounds, etc) due to our own dog's mannerisms but that may change in the future.***
As we know sighthounds can have high prey drives, we don't currently allow any of our doggy guests off lead when out and about.
We will only take dogs that are non-reactive towards other dogs and people or do not have behavioral issues. Please let us know if you require your sighthound to be muzzled when walking/in public and we're happy to abide.
For dog boarding/day care, we ask that dogs be neutered, vaccinated and chipped. Any medication, food, poo bags and bed etc should be provided. We can administer medication orally. We will only take bookings for up to 2 dogs at a time. We will also only be taking bookings for dogs that are house trained. If your dog is crate-trained, you will need to provide the crate as we don't have one.
*We can pick up/drop off your dog if needed for an additional fee.*
Always happy to answer any questions and we look forward to meeting you and your furry friends ❤️
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
I had my ladies stay with Hayley for 2 nights. 1 greyhound and 1 whippet/lurcher X.
Since Hayley has her own lovely hound we did a meet and greet before confirming my booking. Everyone got along with one another and all were happy to continue with it. (hounds & humans)
Found the meet and greet helpful because you get an idea of how the gang interact and my dogs with Hayley and her partner. They loved them!
I was sent updates of the ladies relaxing in Hayley's home. Which puts me at ease knowing they're comfi and chilled.
All n' all a successful stay over. I'd 100% recommended Hayley for your sighthound. They looked after them as if they owned them, up on the couch & chilling on beds.. It was a home away from home for them.
Hayley was great for communicating, quick responses and answered any Qs.
Looking forward to future bookings,
Thanks again!

Hayley and Mark took such wonderful care of my boy Brian. He didn’t want to leave the car when he got home! He was incredibly comfortable and gained his confidence in the new space within a few days thanks to their hospitality, and thanks to making friends with their dog Sadie. I’d happily recommend Hayley, and when I need to send Brian to a sitter again she will be my first port of call.
