Safety, trust & environment

What We Offer: 🏡 A warm, dog-friendly home: Our house is calm, clean, and secure — with a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor play. We don’t have young children, so your dog will enjoy a peaceful environment. 🌳 Daily walks & adventures: We go on 2–3 walks a day, including visits to nearby parks and green spaces. Whether your dog loves a good sniff or a game of fetch, we’ll make sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. 🐾 Personalised care: We stick to your dog’s routine — from feeding times to bedtime cuddles. We’re happy to accommodate special diets, medications, or training needs. 💛 One-on-one attention: We only take a small number of dogs at a time to ensure each guest gets the love and attention they deserve. 🎓 Gentle training support: Need help reinforcing recall or basic commands? We’re happy to support your dog’s training while they stay with us. Your dog will never be left alone in our care — one of us is always home, ready for belly rubs, playtime, or a quiet cuddle on the sofa. We also provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and safe. If you’re looking for reliable, experienced, and genuinely caring sitters, we’d love to meet you and your four-legged family member. Send us a message — we can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home! 🐕❤️

Experienced, loving dog sitters — home-from-home c

Pet care experience

We’re Kate & Mark, experienced, loving dog sitters based in Purley! 🐾 We’ve been caring for dogs for several years and are excited to welcome new furry friends into our home through Rover. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a longer holiday, we’re here to give your dog a safe, happy, and loving home away from home. Our journey into dog sitting started with a simple love for animals and has grown into a passion we share as a couple. We’ve looked after dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to wise seniors, and even those with special needs or anxiety. We know every dog is unique, and we tailor our care to match their individual routines, quirks, and comforts.

LJ’s second stay with Kate. She came back very happy after her stay. Would definitely book again!

Just to add to my previous review, Reeva has a wonderful time with Kate when I leave her for an overnight stay. She gets a chance to enjoy a local open space in the afternoon/evening and even gets taken there again in the morning so when I pick Reeva up after breakfast she is always in a good mood having already had her first outing of the day.

I have used Kate's services in order to go for a walk with her as an introduction, to leave my dog with her during the day and to leave my dog with her overnight. She was definitely a doggie-person and clearly does her best to make my dog happy - and succeeds. She provides plenty of photographs as an update. I was particularly impressed that despite picking her up at 9.30 a.m. Kate made sure my dog had an early morning walk at a local area of open space.

Kate was very accommodating with my booking. She sent regular updates of LJ and I am confident she was well looked after during here stay!
