Loving & Experienced Dog and Cat Sitter
I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life, so I've always had a natural connection with animals. Looking after pets brings me so much joy, and I truly understand what it means to provide them with a loving and safe environment. I live near beautiful walks and woodlands in Surrey, so your dog will enjoy lovely walks through the countryside, and I have a spacious, secure garden where we can have fun and play all day. Whether it’s a lively puppy or a sweet senior dog, I’m more than happy to offer the extra care and attention they need. I’ve been dog sitting for years and have always loved being surrounded by dogs of all breeds and sizes. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to hear from you! With cats, I understand their individual personalities and needs, and I make sure to provide a calm and loving environment for each cat. Whether they enjoy cuddles, playtime, or just lounging around, I’ll ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable during their time with me.

Safety, trust & environment
For Dogs: In my home, I have a fully fenced, secure garden where your dog can safely roam, play, and enjoy the outdoors. It’s a peaceful space where they can stretch their legs and feel at ease, with no worries where we can play for hours on end if the weather is nice. Inside, your dog will have access to cosy areas to relax, whether it’s curling up on a comfy bed or having some quiet time. I’ll make sure they have a space where they feel secure and comfortable whilst also having access to lots of toys. For Cats: I will always ensure that your cat will have a peaceful, quiet space to relax. I always ensure their litter tray is clean and fresh, and I provide lots of love and attention, tailored to their preferences. If I’m looking after your cat in your home, I’ll keep things exactly as they like it.
Ratings and reviews
Cara took great care of Kafka and everything went very smoothly. We got updates during the day, and he came home very tired, which is always a good sign. We’d be very happy to have her look after Kafka again.
Cara & Harry were lovely. Very welcoming and friendly to me & Orla. They kept me updated with photos & a video of Orla looking shamefully spoilt & ecstatic! They were flexible on timings which was really helpful when our event overran. We will definitely be booking with them again.
We have had the pleasure of Cara looking after Frank for over a year. Frank is a puppy dachshund and adores Cara. Communication is wonderful and Cara is always quick to reply and let you know if timings etc work. She is extremely accommodating and a dream to deal with. Frank is loved and looked after to the best quality. He loves her garden and goes out walks. I cannot recommend highly enough.
Cara has looked after my dogs over many years and clearly has a massive love for animals. She has been extremely caring towards both my furry friends, especially my older dog who required more attention. My pets have always been returned happy and well exercised. Cara is a responsible, reliable and experienced dog sitter. Communication is always easy. She and her partner are lovely people. I highly recommend her.

Schedule
For dogs: I always make sure to adapt my schedule to match your dog’s usual routine, as I know how important it is for them to feel at ease while you're away. Whether it’s feeding times, walks, or nap schedules, I’ll make sure they feel right at home and as comfortable as possible. For cats: I’m flexible and will adapt to your cat’s usual routine, whether it’s feeding times, playtime, or quiet moments. I ensure their day stays as close to normal as possible so they feel at ease and comfortable.
