Pet lovers that will put your mind at ease

Pet care experience

We are James and Ketlyn, a couple who is incredibly passionate about dogs and other pets. Ketlyn will do most of the walks and visits, as she is currently a freelance journalist with a more flexible schedule. She’s been around dogs since she was a small child, taking responsibility and care of her own and other peoples pets from an early age. She owned a Labrador for nine years and another one for over eight years - which makes walks, playing, feeding, vet trips, and doggy tantrums all tried and tested ground! She’s been on Rover since May 2021, which allowed us to have some great clients on a more permanent base - check our reviews! James will also try to be available for any services required but due to the nature of his work this is not always possible. He has been passionate about animals his whole life and spent a large part of his free time whilst working overseas, volunteering for animal welfare charities. We dog sit based on days and not nights, which can't be set up in the App so, if you come and go on the same day then the price is as stated. However, if it rolls into the next day, then we add it up at half day increments. Please message us if you have any questions about this at all. We will take good care of your dog and your home and will leave it as we found it. All we ask is that you give us a bed and towels, and some grub. We try to be as flexible as possible, so please message and us we will share our schedules.

Ketlyn was amazing with our Amstaff Charlie! She house sat with him and he was very settled and loved her a lot :) We rescued Charlie from the Bluecross last year, and he is not quite out of puppy age. Ketlyn sent us updates, and he was very at ease with her ♥️ I wouldn’t hesitate to call Ketlyn and James next time I need a dog sitter! Thank you from us and Charlie xx

We booked James and Ketlyn for a house sitting with our dog Dave recently and they were excellent - very good with communication and updates, flexible with times when we had a few last minute changes of plan, and most importantly Dave was very happy and comfortable, so we were able to enjoy our weekend away without worrying! Highly recommended.

Availability

- We can always discuss availability upfront. For walks, we’d rather accept bookings in our area in Glasgow (G20). - We do not accept bookings without meeting the clients in advance, as we previously had some issues with irresponsible owners. - Ideally we’d do a meet and greet before officially booking, but that can be arranged a couple of days before the service starts.
