Pet care experience

Flexible, reliable pet carer a house sitter.

Please be aware: *I generally need to have a 4-6 day minimum sit to book in advance (sometimes can make exceptions if the sit comes right before or right after another booking) *I generally cannot do walks or drop in visits, unless they are very close to my location at the time (due to travel time / costs) so very small chance I can do any outside of central Norwich. I provide flexible and reliable pet care and house sitting. I offer care for your pets, guarding and maintaining your home to give you peace of mind on business trips and holidays. I have specific experience caring for dogs who are nervous. I can also care for cats and other types of pets in your home, and provide basic maintenance including plant care, mail collection, bin and other service rotation etc for inclusive prices. I also provide daily photo and video updates so that you can keep up on your your pets sit. Feel free to contact me to inquire about any services to meet your specific needs and I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets.

Karl was great. Extremely professional and orgainsed, and clearly well experienced looking after other people's pets. The house was exactly as I left it and Karl managed any issues that arose while I was away. I can thoroughly recommend Karl to anyone and am likely to use him again.

We have a high energy dog who loves long walks and is interested in anything and everything! Karl was fully committed to that and our boy had plenty of walks and play time and we had regular pictures and videos showing him having a great time. Karl is organised and takes the job seriously - we felt confident right from the start to leave on holiday knowing that we had left our dog in good hands.

Karl was great. Looked after my 16 year old Lhasa Apso with daily updates and photos. Couldn’t have wished for a better outcome when I arrived home after a 7 day trip away. Would happily use again

Karl is very reliable, took time to find out about Mildred, gave us updates over the 4 days we were away and we will definitely use him again.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small, quiet and secure space to host small dogs. Nice parks and lakes nearby for long walks not far from my front door.

A typical day

I have a quiet flat ideal for owners of quiet, old or nervous animals, near multiple parks and nature routes that dogs love. I can handle most any sized dog with regards to walking, visiting, and sitting. Due to the small size of my flat, I can only host small dogs or cats in my own home.

0 to 7 kg

Dogs over 1 year old
No females in heat

Takes only 1 client at a time
