Highlights
Pet care experience
Play, pat or promenade: pets choice
I've been house and pet sitting for the last few years looking after dogs, cats and the odd rabbit in all shapes, sizes and ages. I have looked after dogs ranging from a small and elderly, though still sprightly, Bichon to a young large and boisterous Visla and enjoyed discovering new breeds little quirks. I know that following a dogs well established routine ensures a more comfortable transition from their humans to the unknown friend that will be hanging out with them.

Ratings and reviews
Jo was so pleasant and professional to communicate with. She put my mind totally at ease by providing me with regular updates through out my time away. My cat absolutely loved Jo's calm and attentive approach. Will 100% book with Jo again.
Jo was fantastic - from the meet and greet to the weekend of doggy sitting - she was calm and confident with our barky boy, very relaxed and clearly a dog person. We had no concerns about leaving her with our boy, and she sent texts and updates over the weekend to let us know how things were. Would not hesitate to recommend and will be using her again.
Joanne was a superb dog sitter. We booked her to look after our 2yo border terrier for a long weekend. She was great with communication throughout and sent through lovely photos of all their activities together. She packed so much into the 3 days and our dog certainly seemed to have a brilliant time with her. She comes across very relaxed and patient which is what we look for in a sitter. We would love to use her again in the future and would happily recommend to friends and family!
Joanne was a great sitter for our Cockapoo Ruby and our cat Tiptoes while we were on holiday. She stayed in our home, came very early in the morning as we had an early flight, sent regular updates and pictures and took great care of our pets and home. Ruby had lovely long walks to the park and beach. We'd definitely use Joanne again if she was available.
Absolutely brilliant! Happy dog and clean house. Can't recommend enough.
Jo was great, Lola had a great time and jo was able to keep me updated on progress. 100% recommended
