Looking for an experienced dog carer in Gateshead? Discover Chrysidis Pet Care: calm, crate-free, one-on-one support for anxious and rescue dogs from a lifelong animal lover.
Why Experience Matters When Caring for Anxious Pets
Caring for anxious or rescue dogs isn’t about quick walks or cage space—it’s about trust, timing, and tailored support.
At Chrysidis Pet Care, I bring over 30 years of hands-on experience with animals, from growing up on a farm in a veterinary family to offering home-based dog boarding in Bensham, Gateshead.
Anxious dogs need more than affection—they need someone who can read body language, adjust routines, and offer consistent calm. That’s where experience makes all the difference.
What Sets Chrysidis Pet Care Apart
Here’s why so many Gateshead dog owners trust me with their most sensitive pets:
💼 30+ years of animal care experience 🐾 Calm, crate-free home setting—no kennels, ever 🐶 Resident Labrador provides gentle companionship 💊 Medication administration & behaviour-sensitive routines 📸 Real-time photo and video updates for peace of mind 💬 One-on-one care with trial days to help dogs adjust
Whether your dog is a nervous rescue, a senior on meds, or just needs reassurance, you can rely on a carer who truly understands dog psychology.
🧠 A Calm Approach Rooted in Behavioural Understanding
Anxious dogs thrive in calm, structured environments. Here’s why:
Dogs absorb our emotional energy—calm humans = calm dogs Routine reduces uncertainty and builds confidence Familiar smells, predictable sounds, and one-on-one attention lower stress Crate-free spaces allow natural movement and rest
“Our rescue dog used to tremble at drop-off. Now, he walks in like he owns the place.”
– Local Gateshead client
At Chrysidis Pet Care, I use subtle cues like tail position, vocalisations, and pacing to read stress and adapt care in real time. That kind of awareness only comes with experience.
🐕 Who This Service Is Designed For
My service is especially suited for:
🐾 Rescue dogs and recently rehomed pets 🐾 Dogs with separation anxiety or noise sensitivity 🐾 Seniors needing slower routines or medication 🐾 Dogs who struggle in busy kennels or group care
This isn’t a high-traffic kennel—it’s a quiet, home-based environment designed for dogs who need emotional safety as much as physical care.
