Highlights
Pet care experience
A holiday home from home where your pet is family
Hi, I’m Kirsty! I’ve been brought up with animals my whole life — from German Shepherds to Chihuahuas, from cats to horses, parrots, rabbits, and everything in between! Myself and my little girls (3 & 4 years old) currently share our home with two dogs (a Corgi and a Scottie), two cats, and a very spoiled chinchilla. I ran my own pet sitting service throughout university and have cared for a wide range of pets, including large breeds like Dobermans and Akitas, and small ones like Yorkies and Chihuahuas. Whether they’re big or small, I treat every animal like one of my own. I offer a safe, loving environment where your pets can feel at home with lots of cuddles and attention — a little holiday of their own while you enjoy yours knowing your pets are being well taken care of.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kirsty was exceptional from the first time we spoke with her. It was a last minute request and was super professional. My dog teddy had a great time.
Kolin loved his 2 nights away with Kirsty very happy with the service thank you for looking after our pup x
Our dog had a great long weekend with Kirsty. She stayed in touch and provided regular photo updates. Overall excellent
Bailey had his trial overnight before his big two night, 3 day stay. He’s never been away from us. But instantly Kirsty put us right at ease and Bailey got on with all the other dogs. Had a fantastic time and slept all the way home. X
Kirsty was a gem. She took Teddy for the night at short notice and clearly has a way with animals. She has a fully enclosed garden and usually takes a number of dogs who play well together. Teddy was well exercised and we were sent updates with photos of him happy on his walk! We’d always be happy to leave Teddy with Kirsty when in the area
Such a fantastic host for our Mollie dog, great communications and plenty of photos. Mollie came back with a spring in her step, must have had a great time

Schedule
Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work half days during the week but have a flexible schedule and the ability to work from home, which means I can easily accommodate pet sitting and provide regular attention, exercise, and company throughout the day. Weekends are also available, and I make sure every pet in my care feels relaxed, safe, and truly at home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe and comfortable home-from-home environment. My garden is fully fenced, giving dogs a secure space to run and play. Inside, they have free run of the house and can settle wherever they feel most at ease. If I need to pop out, dogs are safely secured in the living room. I also have both large and small crates available if preferred, so I can cater to individual needs and routines.
Pets
A typical day
Each day includes plenty of playtime, cuddles, and outdoor walks. We’ll enjoy time in the garden, enrichment games, and relaxed downtime indoors. I tailor activities to suit each pet’s energy level and personality, making sure they feel happy, stimulated, and loved.
