Trusted Pet Sitter, Calm & Reliable
Hi, I’m Zita! 😊 Working with animals has always been my dream, and I feel really lucky to now be doing something I genuinely love every day. I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter based in Peterborough, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with a range of dogs and cats, including energetic dogs and those that need a bit more patience and understanding. I’m confident handling dogs that pull on the lead and always make sure walks are calm, safe, and enjoyable. I’m also confident caring for cats with stronger personalities, including those that can be more nervous or even a bit aggressive. I understand the importance of giving them space, reading their behaviour, and building trust at their pace. Owners often mention in my reviews that I provide great communication and regular updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I know how important it is to feel reassured while you’re away, and I always keep you updated with messages and photos. WHAT I OFFER • Safe and enjoyable dog walks • Drop-in visits for feeding, play, and company • Calm and patient care for nervous or high-energy pets • Confident handling of strong dogs and more challenging behaviours • Experienced with cats that may be shy or more defensive • Regular photo and message updates • Flexible and reliable service I’m happy to work with pets that need a bit of extra patience or understanding — I know every animal is different.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, reliable, and safety-focused approach when caring for pets in their own home, always treating them with the same care and attention as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pets to stay in a familiar environment, so I keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. For dog walks, I use safe, secure routes such as local neighbourhood areas and Ferry Meadows, always prioritising your dog’s comfort and safety. I carefully follow your instructions regarding lead use, recall, and any behavioural needs. For cats and other pets, I take a gentle and patient approach, respecting their space and allowing them to feel comfortable at their own pace. I am confident handling more nervous or independent cats, always focusing on building trust and reducing stress. I am fully Canine First Aid and CPR trained, DBS checked, and I have my own transport, allowing me to be flexible and reliable for your bookings. You will also receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel completely reassured while you’re away. Keys and home access are always handled securely and with full respect for your privacy.
Ratings and reviews
Second time booking Zita to look after my cat and again, she did an amazing job!
Zita took excellent care of my cat while I was away. She not only made sure that he ate and drank enough but also gave him plenty of fuss and attention. The communication was fantastic as well, as she kept me updated with regular messages (and the sweetest photos!), which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in the future. Thank you so much, Zita!
Zita was absolutely fantastic and gave us complete peace of mind while looking after Pharaoh. From the very beginning, she was patient, kind, and understanding. Pharaoh can take a little time to warm up to new people, but Zita took the time to build his trust and made sure he was comfortable throughout her visits. We received plenty of photos and detailed updates, which was incredibly reassuring while we were away and showed just how much care and attention she was giving him. She went above and beyond by helping bring in a parcel for us, which was greatly appreciated. It is clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and treats them as if they were her own. As pet owners, it means the world to find someone who gives so much love, care, and attention to a cherished fur baby. We would not hesitate to book Zita again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Zita!
A1 service from Zita, she obviously got on very well with my Labrador.
Really pleased with the service from Zita. She was able to accommodate a late notice booking. Took great care of my dog and sent updates. I would thoroughly recommend her and will book again.
On time and Theo enjoys his walks, 100% recommend
