About: Dog Care Experience: Puppyhood to Pro I have a deep love for dogs and a practical, hands-on understanding of what it takes to keep them happy, healthy, and well-behaved. My primary experience comes from raising my 6-year-old Cocker Spaniel, Marley, from a puppy. Training & Mental Stimulation I believe a tired dog is a happy dog! I’ve spent years working with Marley on: Positive Reinforcement: I’ve taught her a variety of tricks and essential commands to keep her mind sharp. Active Lifestyle: As a runner, I understand the importance of high-quality exercise. Whether your dog needs a brisk walk or a high-energy run, I can keep up! Breed-Specific Care Raising a Cocker Spaniel has made me an expert in the "finer details" of dog care: Grooming & Hygiene: I’m experienced with regular ear cleaning and coat maintenance—essential for Spaniels and other long-haired breeds. Affectionate Attention: I provide a balance of structured exercise and plenty of "sofa time" and affection. My Promise to You I treat every dog with the respect and care they deserve. I am reliable, attentive to body language, and committed to following your specific training cues and routines so your dog feels consistent and secure while you're away How Pet Care Fits Into My Life Because I work from home full-time, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Your pet won't just be a "task" on my list; they become my coworker for the day! Constant Companionship: WFH allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, fresh water refills, and plenty of mid-day head scratches. If your pet suffers from separation anxiety, they’ll find comfort in having a calm human presence nearby all day. Active Mornings & Evenings: I am a dedicated runner (out 3 times a week). For high-energy dogs, this means I’m more than happy to trade a slow walk for a steady jog to help them burn off extra steam. Structured Routine: My own dog, Marley, thrives on a schedule, and I bring that same discipline to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s a strict feeding time for a senior cat or a specific training window for a puppy, I have the time and environment to make it happen. Why This Works for You Reliability: You don't have to worry about me rushing back to an office. Expertise: I can monitor senior cats or medical needs throughout the day, not just in "drop-in" windows. Energy: I have the fitness level to handle even the most energetic breeds. Safety, Trust & Environment Whether in my home or yours, my priority is creating a "zero-stress" environment where your pet feels safe and secure. In My Home: Full-Time Supervision: Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods. I am always in the next room to monitor behavior and well-being. Marley-Approved: My 6-year-old Cocker Spaniel, Marley, is friendly and well-socialized. I always perform a "meet and greet" first to ensure a harmonious environment for everyone. Safe Spaces: My home is organized to provide quiet corners for senior cats or shy dogs who need a break from the action. In Your Home: Respect & Discretion: I treat your home with the same respect I treat your pet. I follow your security protocols (alarms, locks) exactly as instructed. Maintaining the Routine: Pets are most comfortable in their own space. I stick strictly to your feeding, walking, and medication schedules to minimize any "away-from-owner" anxiety. The "Runner’s Eye": On walks or runs, I am hyper-vigilant about surroundings, off-leash dogs, and pavement temperature to ensure your dog’s paws and safety are never compromised. My Trust Guarantee: Having managed a cat with Chronic Kidney Disease, I am used to being extremely observant. I’ll send you regular photo updates and "report cards" so you can see exactly how much fun (and relaxation) your pet is having.

“Danielle kept me updated every day with pics and messages about my cats wellbeing. This was my first time using a cat sitter and will definitely use her again. ”

About: Hi! I’m Han, an experienced dog lover offering dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in your home.
I grew up around dogs and currently have two family dogs of my own – a puppy and a senior dog – so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, energy levels, and personalities. I also have experience caring for pets with additional needs, including blind and deaf dogs. One of my own beloved dogs, Baxter, is a blind Welsh Springer Spaniel, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that some pets require.
I work full-time as a Radiation Therapist and offer pet care on Wednesdays and weekends. I have my own car and am happy to travel to your home so your dog can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I work in healthcare, so I’m used to being reliable, organised and attentive to individual needs. I’m fully available on Wednesdays, which gives me plenty of time for longer walks, home visits and keeping pets company without rushing. I may also have some availability on evenings and weekends depending on my work schedule. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s routine and making sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for. I will tailor my services and care to each individual pet and their needs, as well as those of their sitter. My 10 year old springer is blind and I am used to taking care of senior dogs as well as puppies.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have plenty of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up having dogs of my own, so looking after pets and making sure they feel happy, comfortable and well cared for has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a cat of my own and regularly help care for my grandparents’ cats and dogs, as well as my sister’s dog. I’ve also helped neighbours with pet sitting and looking after their animals when they’ve been away or needed an extra hand. Through this, I’ve had experience caring for different pets with their own personalities, needs and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, keeping pets company and following their usual routines. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and settled when their owners aren’t around, so I always take the time to get to know them and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m reliable, patient and attentive, and I’m very happy to follow any specific instructions you have. I’d treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. As a secondary school teacher, I have a consistent weekly schedule and plenty of availability outside of school hours. I’m available for dog walking and drop in visits after 4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, and from 1:30pm onwards on Wednesdays. At weekends, my schedule is much more flexible and I’m available throughout the day for dog walking, pet sitting, drop in visits and longer periods of care. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine wherever possible and can discuss individual needs and timings with you. I also have greater flexibility during school holidays and mid-term breaks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and individual needs, so I always aim to make their time with me as comfortable and familiar as possible. I’m happy to follow any instructions provided by owners regarding feeding, walks, exercise, playtime and their usual daily routine. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’m very respectful of both the pet’s space and the owner’s home. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship and playtime, as well as regular walks and toilet breaks where needed. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and being well looked after. Safety is really important to me, so I’ll always follow instructions regarding leads, feeding, interactions with other animals and anything else I should be aware of. Most importantly, I’ll treat every pet I look after with the same care, patience and affection I would give my own.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a veterinary graduate from Brazil with a big heart for animals and a lifelong passion for caring for them. Since childhood, I’ve always been surrounded by pets — dogs, cats, and even farm animals — and that love only grew stronger, leading me to study veterinary medicine. With my background and hands-on experience as a pet parent, I offer trustworthy, affectionate, and knowledgeable care for your beloved companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing company and cuddles, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I believe every animal deserves personalized attention, so I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and special needs. My goal is to give your pet the same love and care I’d want for my own. For cats, I have everything to make them feel at home — including a litter box and a scratching post, so they can settle in comfortably and feel relaxed from day one. Let’s chat beforehand to make sure your friend gets exactly what they deserve! I provide dedicated pet care every day that I have guests. Each day, I focus on feeding, exercising, and interacting with pets, ensuring they receive both physical activity and mental stimulation. I pay close attention to their individual needs, whether it’s a dog that enjoys walks, a cat that prefers quiet play, or any other pet with special routines. Throughout their stay, I monitor their health, behavior, and well-being, keeping a consistent schedule so every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my home or at a pet owner's home, I make sure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no hazards and everything they need to feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and preferences closely, and I supervise them during playtime, walks, or any activity to ensure their well-being. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. I maintain open communication, providing updates, photos, or messages as needed, so owners feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well-cared-for at all times.
