I work from home full-time, which allows me to give your pet the time, attention and companionship they need throughout the day. My routine is flexible, so I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether that’s early morning drop-offs, midday walks, or overnight stays. I’m happy to care for pets in my own home, where I’ve created a calm and pet-friendly environment, or I can come to yours if your pet is more comfortable staying in their familiar surroundings. Since I work remotely, I’m always nearby to give cuddles, toilet breaks, and playtime whenever it’s needed.

Safety, trust & environment

When your pet stays with me, they’ll be welcomed into a safe, loving home with a securely fenced decking, where they can explore and play freely. I have a gentle and well-socialised dog who gets along brilliantly with others, and I always introduce pets slowly and mindfully to make sure everyone feels at ease. If I’m looking after your pet in your home, I’ll bring my dog with me, and I’ll make sure both pets are comfortable, supervised, and settled. I’m happy to use crates if needed, and can follow any routine you have in place, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or special instructions. My dog is crate trained and very well behaved, I am experienced in training dogs tricks and good behaviour. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness are always my top priorities.

Pets

Lifelong pet carer with a loving touch

Pet care experience

I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, currently a mom of two cats and a lovely dog. From a young age, I’ve naturally taken on the role of pet caregiver, feeding, walking, bathing and even administering basic medications when needed. I’ve always been the one friends and family turn to when they need someone reliable and loving to look after their pets. Whether it’s keeping a puppy entertained or making sure older pets are comfortable and well cared for, I do it with genuine affection and attention to their individual needs.

Raluca took such wonderful care of Meesha! She was kind, attentive, and made sure Meesha felt happy and comfortable the whole time. I had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands.

Raluca has taken care of my pets specially my cat on many occasions. She’s super attentive to my fur baby always attending to her needs whenever she needs to eat, her fur brushed or to go potty. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter .

As a pet owner herself, Raluca shows incredible care, patience and love towards my pets. She has always been incredibly friendly, responsive and is respectful of the way I look after my pets, seeking to maintain the same approach across households. I am very grateful to know her and would absolutely recommend her for pet sitting.

I booked Raluca to look after my dog while I was away for a long weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and knows exactly how to make them feel safe and comfortable. She was incredibly professional, kept me updated with regular photos and messages, and followed all instructions perfectly. My dog can be a bit shy with new people, but he warmed up to her straight away - which says a lot! When I came home, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well looked after. I’ve already rebooked her for my next trip. Honestly, it’s such a relief to know I have someone I can trust. Highly recommended!
