A bittersweet update from me & Rusty 💛🐾
After 3 amazing years, Rusty’s will be closing at the end of September 2025.
From July through to our final day in September, it’s still business as usual.
I’ll be here giving your pups all the love, cuddles and care they’re used to. I want to make the most of every moment with the dogs I’ve been lucky enough to look after.
This decision wasn’t easy, but it comes with some exciting personal news:
✨ Rich and I are planning to grow our family next year (and no... it won't be another Rusty! 😛)
✨ We’re also heading to Italy for a few months (to hopefully buy a second home there!)
Alongside all of this, many of you know how passionate I am about dog health and nutrition so I decided to start something new.
It’s called DAFY (Dog Advice For You), a platform I am building to help dog parents get expert-led, trusted and science-backed answers to all questions about dog health and nutrition.
If you’d like to follow along and support this next chapter, I’d love to have you there:

The last 3 years have honestly been some of the most meaningful and best in my life.
I’ve learned so much, grown so much and had the absolute privilege of caring for so many wonderful fur pups.
💛 And just so you know - I’ll be keeping my licence!
So every now and then, I’d love to organise a little get-together day with the pups.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all the trust you’ve placed in me over the years.
Gaia & Rich & Rusty💛
