House Sitting in Wychavon

“Steve was a great sitter for our dog, Mabel. His communication was really good and he sent us photo updates which made us feel relaxed that our dog was in good hands. He also came to visit us and meet Mabel a few days before sitting, so they got to know each other beforehand. Mabel seemed very happy when we came home and she had clearly enjoyed having Steve look after her. We will very happily use Steve again and recommend him to anyone who needs a reliable, caring person to look after their pet!”

“Thank you Carol, Molly had a lovely stay and was very spoilt. We would definitely be using Carol again, highly recommend Carol to look after your dog or cat. Molly had a Home from home experience. Rani & Peter Xx”

“Radek was very good, our puppy seemed very calm and interested around him and he’s normally a quite excitable dog around strangers! We’re very thankful Radek was able to accommodate us so last minute. Our puppy’s behaviour was also on point throughout the rest of the day l.”

“I would highly recommend Emmie to care for either dogs or cats, she took care of my cat when I was on holiday for two weeks, she truly loved my cat and visa versa....I had complete trust in her and will have no hesitation to ask her again, when I am away in the summer......Thank you so much from Elle & Boo 😽 xx”

“Helen has grown up with dogs all of her life. Her kind and positive manner puts both animals and humans at ease and her cheery disposition makes her a joy to work with. I've always found Helen to be honest and trustworthy and would have no problem using her services again. My St Bernard is always happy to see her.”

“Maisie and Joe did an amazing job of looking after Bailey and Bonnie! After dropping the booking on them last minute they were super accommodating, kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and most improved tired both of my girls out! They were both professional and it was clear they cared and put the dogs first! Thank you so much, will definitely be using you both again! X”

“We were so happy with the way Sophie looked after Bracken, would absolutely recommend her. She was friendly, professional and she took great care of our puppy while we were away.”

“Having known Emily for a few years now, I can safely say that she is a kind, loving and trustworthy person. She has looked after my cat a couple of times when I have been on holiday, and she took the best care of my cat I could wish for. My cat was fed twice a day without fail and the litter tray was kept clean. I would highly recommend Emily to care for your pets, they will be very well looked after.”

“Megan looked after our little Cockapoo for two weeks whilst we were on holiday and she was amazing! She treated Coco as her own, spoiled her and gave her lots of cuddles. Her communication was great and she sent us daily updates. She made us feel so at ease and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Would highly recommend Megan! Absolute angel!”

About: I have a passion for dog walking, pet sitting, and providing day visits. With my experience in taking care of family dogs and having my own furry friend, I am dedicated to providing the best care possible. Dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I am excited to spend my free time caring for them. Rest assured, I will work closely with you to meet their needs and keep you updated on their well-being while they are under my care. My work schedule is quite flexible as I work shifts, allowing me to adjust accordingly to accommodate each owner's needs and be available whenever required. I can take care of your dog and house while you're away, ensuring everything is safe and secure. I typically stay for one to three nights at most, as I have my own furry friend waiting for me at home.

“Sally has looked after my dog the past two years on occasions where I am working long shifts. She has formed an amazing relationship with my dog and anyone would be lucky to have her as a dog sitter, she is able to take them on walks or just dog sit.”

“Friendly, punctual, and great at communicating. We’ve already booked Coral for a longer period of pup-sitting and feel confident leaving our princess whippet in her care 🥰”

About: I’ve had pet dogs since the age of 12 and trained all 3 of our family dogs. I’m patient and reliable with dogs ensuring they are fed, exercised and loved. I’m currently working in education but my availability at the weekends is flexible. My family pets live with my Mum but I see them weekly which is a particular highlight. In my local area, there are many footpaths and parks where dogs can run free and socialise with other dogs passing through. At your home I would respect your routines and maintain the boundaries you have familiarised your pet with.

About: Hi, my name is Emma I'm an experienced pet owner/minder and I’ve lived with doggos most of my life. Our first dog as a small child was Heidi the Dachshund, then we had a boxer plus an assortment of cats, several hamsters and a budgie. As an adult I’ve had a mutt who had the characteristics of a collie, two Dobermans (still my favourite dogs), and Max. Max is half Karakachan, which is one of those huge dogs that guards sheep against wolves in the mountains of Europe, and half Barak which is a Bulgarian hunting dog; he lives with my partner in Bulgaria. I have trained all my dogs, with guidance of a professional trainer. I grew up on a farm so I'm completely at home feeding chickens, ducks, looking after horses (was riding as soon as I could walk), cats and a whole host of small animals. My own cat as a teenager Tiggy adopted me – she appeared on the farm, jumped onto my shoulder one day when I was mucking out the stables and then stayed. I was that child who came home with an assortment of sick, injured or stray animals and wanted to take care of them. Every year I looked after all the orphan lambs, getting up all hours of the night nursing them back to health when their mums couldn’t. I have experience dog boarding and day care abroad, including a very young puppy for 2 months, and volunteered at a horse sanctuary in Gozo. I also have experience house-sitting in the UK and I have caretaken yachts abroad, not exactly a house, but the same principles of being trustworthy, reliable, conscientious, respectful of other people’s property, can follow instructions and communicate regularly. I currently split my time between UK with my elderly father and Bulgaria. I work from home as a psychology and TEFL teacher, so if you have Wi-Fi I can work from your home. These days I like to walk, so having a dog with me for company makes it so much more enjoyable. If your dogs are okay travelling in cars, I would take them on outings with me and to see my dad; he loves dogs so they would certainly get lots of attention. As a mature lady, having owned many homes, I’m calm, responsible and I know how to look after property, and what to do if things go wrong. For me a successful sit is when the owners can go away and relax, then come back to a tidy home, happy animals and plants that are still alive. Please feel free to get in touch if you would like to discuss your requirements, know anything else about me or meet up. I'm a non-smoker. I look forward to hearing from you. Emma I have an enhanced DBS certificate and I work online as a psychology, sociology and English tutor, so as long as you've got good wifi, I can work from your home. I love the countryside and don't mind being remote. We have a secure fully fenced back garden to our bungalow with patio doors, your dog would be allowed anywhere in the bungalow. We don't have any other pets and there are no cats around.

About: My name is Hugo and it’s an absolute joy meeting and spending time with new dogs. Our house has an enclosed back garden, so your dog(s) will have plenty of space. At the moment I do not have a pet, I am looking forward to have one. Dog sitting is a really enjoyable experience, I love dogs very much and simply get a great deal of pleasure looking after them. If you are away for a day, week, or busy during your normal work hours, we can accommodate your best friend. Don´t hesitate make your questions, it will be a pleasure to help you and take care of your 4-legged friend. Feel free to message and get to know me before allowing me to look after your wonderful pets.

About: Hi, my name is Nathan/Nath and I have grown up with dogs & Cats my whole life and enjoy being a dog dad! I look after puppies to seniors of all sizes! I also have a lot of experience with dogs with separation anxiety and rescue dogs! The dog on my profile is carter, my rescue i've had for over a year now. I also have animal welfare and management qualifications :) I currently work part time and specialise mainly in boarding over weekends as i am always avaliable for weekends. I don't work monday so long weekends are also something i can offer. if needed in the week if you ask beforehand i can move my working days around to fit your needs, so I can dedicate lots of time to play, walk and give affection to your pups! I have a secure enclosed garden so if your pet wants to explore outside they are able to do so without worry of escaping. I do have a dog in the house myself, which if the dog boarding needs to be the only dog in the home, we have a setup so our dog is in a different part of the house at all times. - our dog has been well socialised and comfortable around dogs of all sizes and breeds.

“Stephanie has been taking care of my three senior dogs, Bella, Marley and Dora for a couple of years now, in both a dog-sitting and dog-walking capacity. Bella, a 10-year-old Cocker Spaniel, has specific dietary requirements due to her weight management and joint health needs. She is on a special low-calorie/high metabolic diet and requires supplements for her arthritis. Stephanie ensures that Bella is not over-fed and carefully measures her food portions accordingly. Additionally, Stephanie administers Bella’s daily joint supplements and anti-inflammatory medication as and when required. Bella has a sensitive stomach and Stephanie ensures that she is not exposed to any ingredients that might upset her. Marley, a 15-year-old Shorkie, is often scared by other dogs, particularly if they are larger than him. He becomes extremely anxious and barks due to feeling intimidated. Stephanie has learned that his barking serves as both a warning to the potential threat and a call for assistance from his owner or in this case his dog walker. Stephanie ensures both dogs receive regular walks and are well-exercised according to their abilities. Bella, being younger and more energetic, enjoys a slightly faster pace, whereas Marley, with his advanced age, requires a slower, more gentle walk. Stepahnie skillfully manages these differences, ensuring both dogs get the appropriate level of exercise and attention. Dora was a rescue dog who sadly passed away last year due to a tumour. She had been bred on a puppy farm and just discarded once she was unable to produce more puppies. She was completely shut down to life and didn’t even have a name. Dora did not trust anyone so I was initially reluctant to allow a stranger to look after her. I knew she needed a stable and loving environment where she could feel safe and secure. Stephanie’s patience was essential during this period, as Dora needed time to adjust to new people and surroundings. Stephanie was able to slowly build up a rapport with Dora and offered consistent routines and gentle, positive reinforcement to help Dora build trust and confidence. It was this compassion and understanding that helped Dora to thrive and develop a strong, loving bond with Stephanie. One of the qualities that sets Stephanie apart is her mindfulness of what habits are normal and not normal for both of my dogs. She has quickly learned their usual energy levels, eating and sleeping habits. On several occasions, Stephanie has noticed subtle changes in their behavior that indicated health issues, such as when Marley appeared more lethargic than usual or when Bella showed signs of digestive discomfort. Her vigilance and prompt communication with me allowed for timely adjustments to their care routines. I would recommend Stephanie without hesitation.”

About: As I am on my way to becoming a Veterinary Nurse, caring for all animals is my passion, loving them and all of their needs. I adjust around the pets normal routine. I have lived with animals my whole life ranging from, dogs and cats to chickens, ducks and guinea pigs and everyday is never the same. I love to care for animals playing, feeding and especially cuddling! I tend to care for pets more often in their own homes as they are always happier and more relaxed. When I care for pets in my home, I stick to the owner’s preference, if they are crate trained, I keep them crate trained in my home. If they are used to sleeping on their owners beds, they sleep on the bed. I live in a quiet village away from busy roads and have a fenced in garden.

“Abi is very sweet and was very accomodating to look after my two dogs when I went away for the day and kindly accommodated with some deliveries happening at my house..including a tradesperson who needed to fix my treadmill. Highly recommend.”
