Pet Sitting in Aberdeenshire

“Sophie took such good care of Ziggy and Pluto, from the moment we had our meet and greet I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. The daily photos and reports assured me they were safe and well. You can tell Sophie is a real animal lover and cares so much about all the pets she looks after. 5 stars and will definitely rebook next time I’m away! Thanks so much ?”

“Aradia is awesome and a great sitter for the drop in visit. Our cats were well taken care off. She also played with them and took simba out in the garden. She’s wonderful. Will sure book her again next time. 🥰”

“Kerri is very professional in her approach to how she looks after the cats but also knows cats well enough to give them the personal care in her visits that cats need.she has looked after my cats(2 slightly spoilt maine Coons) twice now and I will most certainly use her again in the future”

“I highly recommend Hannah as a pet sitter and dog walker. Her dedication to providing safe and loving care is remarkable. Having experienced her care for my own Rhodesian Ridgeback / French Mastiff dog, I can confidently say that Hannah is responsible, attentive, and very capable. Working with my large breed rescue dog and understanding his lack of recall and cat reactivity is no easy feat. Hannah went above and beyond to meet his needs and it showed as while he was aloof with most people Hannah was the exception. He genuinely enjoyed his walks with her. Hannah's professionalism, reliability, and excellent communication skills make the entire pet care experience stress-free. Her warmth, kindness, and genuine love for animals are clear.”

About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers which meant I was always surrounded by dogs. Our household thrived on nurturing and caring for our furry friends (many of our friends always joke about how they would like to be reincarnated into a pet in our family haha). All of our pups have been rescues so I have experience with dogs that have been through some sort of trauma as well. Spending countless hours volunteering in Mexican dog shelters deepened my passion for dog welfare, creating a strong dedication to providing the utmost care for them. I have also lived with flatmates who own dogs and they could always rely on me to take care of them if they went away on a trip or if they got stuck in work and needed someone to walk them. I'm currently doing online research for my Master's thesis so I fortunately have a very flexible schedule. Most of my research is done online during the late night hours (performing interviews with people in Mexico), and during the day I usually spend it writing or going to the gym. Dog walking would be the perfect way for me to get a little break from uni work and spend time with pups. I will ask the owner if there is any specific behavior their phone has which I should be aware of, as well as what their preference is as to how long the walks should be, what type of play, off leash or on leash walks. I will be 100% attentive to the dog and make sure they are always safe.

About: I’ve had dogs from being a wee one, I have had giant breeds to tiny breeds, special needs to being terrified of people. I had my old boy a chow chow until he was in old age. I can train puppys into routine and can continue your routine at home. I pay attention to the dog and their mannerisms learning and loving each of them individually and doing what’s best for them. I understand dietary needs and also skin conditions including hotspots, allergy’s skin conditions which may need looked after while with me. Currently I’m a stay at home mum until the summer time when I go back to uni. So I am free nearly all of the time. I have a back garden with a large fenced in spaced 6ft There are 3 bedrooms a kitchen hallways and living room all accessible. I have the the beach and play pen behind my house where there is an enclosed field for dogs to play, lots of space for animals! Each dog will be tailored to suit them and their individual needs. My vet is 5 minutes away should that be needed. All dogs have individual safety needs like escape artists and sneaky eaters so please just ask anything you need too, I understand we’re not all perfect’

About: I have almost had pet care experience all my life, I had dogs growing up that I couldn’t even remember. When I got to the age that I was able to have my own dog, my mother got me one when we lived in Italy and Tommy was my best friend, I’d look after him as he was classed as mine, I would look after him from the age of 9, I had a park across the road from where I’d stay and I would take him myself out every couple of hours as I knew from a young age that dogs should have the ability to have multiple toilet breaks throughout the day especially if you do not want any accidents in the house. I would bath him and feed him, he became truly my bestie. Once I had moved back to the UK. I give him daily paracetamol to help with joint pain and arthritis and other than that he’s good to go, more toilet breaks I’ve noticed are needed as his bladder strength isn’t on the best form to compared when he was younger. I am currently working on the NHS bank at Aberdeen royal infirmary, I can chose to work around what I’d rather do which is this I will ensure all places we go to are safe for fur babies and only ever do as the owner instructs. My old baby loved other dogs and would love to keep other senior dogs company as he can get a bit lonely sometimes❤️

“Our boy Buddy has spent some hours with jakki since we’ve had him just over a year ago. He’s a big and excitable boy and very much loves jakki when he sees her. Nothing ever too much trouble for jakki.”

“Would highly recommend Niamh S.first time I’ve used this service and she made me feel I was leaving my cats with someone very special indeed, she made sure she meet with us beforehand, I instantly knew was gonna be perfect as Cassie my female cat instantly went to her, she never goes to anyone apart from us,so I knew they were gonna be fine. Niamh sent me daily updates and pictures of them both, which was so nice to see them both happy. We will most definitely use this service again.”

“Hannah's warmth and enthusiasm put me instantly at ease, and I knew I could trust them with my furry friend. Throughout the time I was away, Hannah went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was happy, healthy, and loved. Hannah was incredibly reliable and responsible. They followed all of my instructions, ensuring that my dog received the proper food, medication, and exercise. I appreciated the regular updates and photos sent to me, which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog was in good hands.”

“Debs often stays in my home to look after my 12yr old Golden Retriever Monty and 11mth Doberman Springer cross puppy Lulah while we go on holiday. It gives me complete peace of mind going away knowing the dogs are going to be loved, exercised and well looked after in their own home by someone who I trust 100%. Debs treats my dogs like they are her own and they adore her. My house is always immaculate when we return so it really is a joy to go away and be able to relax knowing everything will be looked after at home. I was in two minds about writing this review as we really don't want to share Debs as she really is one in a million 😁”

Jennifer has successfully managed & improved her own dog’s reactivity and is confident handling a variety of dogs - I have 2 large dogs of my own and I would not hesitate to ask Jennifer to look after them, she is honest and reliable and would treat your dog like her own, giving the highest standard of care.”

About: My life is a symphony of paws, feathers, and furry joy. Since childhood navigating the world of big and small dogs, horses, rabbits, birds, cats, degus and even welcoming baby lambs into the world during Lambing. Back in the Scottish Borders my family’s lively household includes a border collie, three cats, and a flock of ducks and chickens.

“We were really nervous about leaving our cat as this is this first time we have used a pet sitter but Paige was great! She made sure to send us daily pictures and updates which really helped. Smoky was much happier staying in his own home and in his own routine. Paige went above and beyond - even putting our bin out for us! I would definitely use Paige again.”

“Eve has always been very kind and attentive to Fergus, caring for him for over two years. She’s very attentive and understanding of all his quirks, and always been very good in terms of flexibility and last minute booking. A very polite and passionate individual, it’s been great having her hell with dog walking and sitting. I could not recommend enough.”

“I highly recommend Nadia as a dog sitter! She's incredibly kind, caring, and attentive to my dog's needs. Her adaptability to my constantly changing schedule has been a lifesaver, and she always goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is happy and well taken care of. It's clear that she has a genuine love for animals, and my dog absolutely adores her. I trust Nadia completely and feel grateful to have found such a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

“Kirsti has popped in on my cat during the day and weekends when I’m away since she came home. I won’t have anyone else look after kat, she does a brilliant job and often goes above and beyond to keep her happy! Would recommend her to anyone for her to look after their pets.”
