“Leony was absolutely fantastic while looking after my cat Faye while I was away. From the moment we first spoke, I felt completely at ease knowing Faye would be in safe hands. Leony was warm, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She kept me updated with lovely photos and messages, which really helped ease my mind while I was gone. Faye can be a little shy with new people, but she warmed up to Leony almost instantly, a true sign of how calm and caring she is. When I got home, Faye was happy, healthy, and clearly very well looked after. The flat was spotless, her food and litter were exactly as they should be, and it was clear she’d been given plenty of love and attention.”

“Elayna was fantastic with Charlie, spent lots of time playing and petting him even though she only needed to feed him. She also accepted my booking very last minute and extended it whilst I was away as our plans changed. I couldn't recommend Elayna enough, she goes above and beyond.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and spend lots of time with my parents’ two border terriers, Bobby and Bertie. I enjoy getting outdoors for regular walks and I’m calm, reliable, and happy to follow each dog’s routine. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means I can fit dog walks and visits easily into my day. I’m available for regular walks, check-ins, and occasional weekend help. When caring for dogs in an owner’s home, I always follow their routine and instructions carefully. I’m respectful of homes, keep dogs secure on walks, and prioritise safety, calm handling, and clear communication.
“Kiarra is fantastic, she's who I rely on when I need a cat sitter, when I'm going away. I trust her fully she's reliable, friendly, gives great updates and indya loves her ❤️”

“Kasie is a respectful, responsible, attentive, kind and sweet cat sitter. During her first visit, she arrived on time and took excellent care of our cat, Angus. She approached him gently and tried to play, but today, Angus was not that playful, so she respected his space when he preferred to be on his own. Kasie gave him fresh food, checked his water, attempted to brush him, and ensured that his litter box was clean. We felt very comfortable knowing that Angus was in such good hands, and we would be happy and lucky to book Kasie again :)”

About: I’ve taken care of a range of dogs all different breeds and sizes. I love the company of our furry friends. I enjoy the outdoors - all walks big or small. I’m currently working full-time Monday to Friday between 8am and 4pm so I am available around this. I have availability some weekends and also during the school holidays I have extended availability. I do not have a pet of my own however, I have looked after several before. I have a secure property which is pet friendly.
About: I had a wide variety of pets growing up. I've always had positive experiences with pets, and i even look after my friends pets when they're away for trips. I am a student at the University of Aberdeen. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to look after your fur baby whenever is required. I have a shared, walled garden, i am also willing to travel to make sure your pet is comfortable and feels safe. I'm also a short walk away from a park and the beach :)
About: I have looked after dogs, cats, lizards, and rodents since I was younger, we would often pet-sit for friends and family in my childhood home. As a child I have kept many pets including cats that I leash trained! This has given me a lot of experience - especially from my aunt who has 9 dogs! I am currently studying at UoA for a degree in Animal Behaviour, I would love to specialise in pets so having the chance to care for more animals will be great for my degree If you need me Monday or Tuesday please drop me a message as I am happy to walk/drop in during my lunch break if you live near UoA. I work a part time contract with flexible hours and study full time, however I am often free in the mornings and evenings on weekdays. With enough notice (a couple of weeks) I can make myself available on a weekend. When at an owners home I like to interact with the pet through play or cuddles/strokes- unless told otherwise. I am happy to clean up pet messes and feed your pets based on owner preference.
“Caitlin comes once a week to drop in on my puppy while I’m at uni. She has took the time to get him comfortable as he is a nervous puppy and is able to settle him while he is currently getting used to being alone. Definitely recommend ☺️”

About: I have been a dedicated cat owner since 2022, providing full-time care for my own feline companion. This experience has given me deep insights into cat behavior, from understanding their subtle body language to managing daily routines like grooming, feeding schedules, and litter box hygiene. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy play sessions to providing a calm, quiet space for more timid cats. I have a very stable and flexible routine that allows me to prioritize pet care. On weekdays, my only commitment is attending classes from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. On weekends, I am available all day. I live alone in a quiet, clean, and pet-safe flat, which provides a calm environment perfect for pets to settle in quickly. Since I don't have other roommates or children, your pet will enjoy a stress-free stay with my undivided attention.
“I had a last minute cancellation and on very short notice Zhi was able to support us providing the service we were looking for. And I am so happy that he did as I felt that, not only Sky was taken care of, but I could trust him with the house. Zhi understood I was under pressure and I felt reassured when we weren't at home sending us pics, videos and updating us on how things were going. Sky loved him and the walks she went with him. I'm certain Sky will remember him when we book him again and again!! Thank you , Zhi!”

“Having never used this service before I have been so happy with how good Susie has been with our cat Flo. The rover card updates photos and videos have helped me to enjoy my holiday knowing Flo was so well looked after , Susie had such a good way with her and helped Flo be happy & relaxed when we were away, would highly recommend this service especially Susie, she was amazing and deserves the 5 stars, Thanks again Susie”

About: Since I was 5 I have always had pets, mostly dogs but more recently cats and rabbits. I have my own dog who is 2 and I have toilet and crate trained her. I have trained Lola a lot of skills and now she is in a constant routine I am a staff nurse in ARI so I work on a shift work so this changes weekly, I can’t always guarantee the same days but always have available days My flat is set up for my pup who is friendly and loves when my friends pups are around to have a play. I have Lola’s travel crate so I can easily help with crate training when I have your pup to stay
About: I have had family pets my whole life and have actively been caring and responsible for pets since I was about 13. I work in an environment with dogs and so am with them day in, day out. I have also been dog sitting for my mum and friends fairly frequently for the last 5 years. I unfortunately am just not in a position to own a pet of my own at this stage of my life and so am very passionate about being around others pets and spreading the love. I work around 5 days a week however I work short shifts and am flexible. I live very near to my work and we are very dog friendly so toilet breaks ect are easy for me to do while I am on shift. I also have a partner who loves dogs and we generally work different hours so there’s almost always someone at home. I have a large fenced garden for your dog to run around in, live very close to multiple parks for some good walks and can even take your dog to work if this is something we agree on prior to my care. My flat is open plan and so plenty of space for your animal to lounge around. My partner will also probably assist in the care of your pet as we live together, he also loves animals and is very good with them.

“Emma was fab with Pippa. She can be a little timid with new people to begin with but Emma gave lots of cuddles and reassurance which was great. Emma took her out for a walk at the local park to let Pippa stretch her legs as well. We have Emma booked in for a weekend stay in December and have no doubts Pippa will be well looked after with lots of cuddles and playtime 😊”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and hope to have one of my own in the future, but for now, I love to be the fun aunt who enjoys giving them plenty of care, attention and exercise. I’m active, responsible and outdoorsy, so long walks, playtime and fresh air are all part of the package. I also know that every dog is different; some love adventure, others prefer a calm companion-and I’ll always do my very best to adapt to what your dog needs. You can expect clear communication, regular updates and genuine care. Your dog will be treated with the same respect and affection I’d give my own. I live alone and work in tech, which allows me to have a lot of flexibility, with a mix of home (3) and office days (2). I'm an early bird and an early bed person. On weekends I spend a lot of time outdoors walking, biking, running, doing crafts and playing my guitar. Most evenings you’ll find me out for a run, a bike ride or a long walk, so your dog will get plenty of fresh air and activity! I live in a first-floor spacious flat with a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and relax. There are several great parks nearby, including Duthie Park, for longer walks and adventures. Inside, I’ve got a comfortable work and hobby room with a sofa they’re welcome to curl up on.

Elayna is excellent. My cat Tommy loves her! She takes such good care of my Tommy! Feeds Tommy and cleans his litter tray and plays with him! Have used Elayna several times and have booked her for a future date. Would highly recommended her and will definitely keep booking with Elayna.

Honestly couldn’t recommend Jiao enough, she’s so good at explaining how my buns are which is so helpful for a worrisome owner like me, it’s so reassuring and calming to know they are being so well looked after and to have the daily updates of them with every visit. Jiao communicates any issues so well and also resolves them too. She’s so kind and I’m so pleased we’ve found her!

Sarah is absolutely fantastic and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone! I came home to two very happy cats and could tell that they had been well cared for and given lots of love and attention. I will definitely be booking Sarah again in the near future!

Emma was fab with Pippa. She can be a little timid with new people to begin with but Emma gave lots of cuddles and reassurance which was great. Emma took her out for a walk at the local park to let Pippa stretch her legs as well. We have Emma booked in for a weekend stay in December and have no doubts Pippa will be well looked after with lots of cuddles and playtime 😊

Morgan looked after my cat, Mochi, for the entirety of my holiday and I couldn’t be more pleased with how she cared for my cat and my home. 🥰 Firstly, Mochi took to her instantly! He is a rescue and can be aloof around strangers, however on meeting Morgan he was rolling over, purring, and headbutting her for for attention. She was evidently very experienced with cats and how to befriend them! After every visit, Morgan provided detailed written and photo updates. These were always lovely to receive and showed how much fun Mochi was having whilst I was gone. I had mentioned various enrichment puzzles and games I play with Mochi and Morgan made sure to do these every day, as well as rotating his toys so he was always excited to play. She also made sure to open and close my curtains so Mochi could look out of the windows, which was fab! Mochi is a long haired cat and his coat requires daily brushing - Morgan did this every day and his coat was in PERFECT condition when I came home. ✨ She also left his bowls, lick mat, and litter area sparklingly clean! ✨ 5 ⭐️ service! Morgan went above and beyond to care for Mochi and I would happily recommend and book with her again.

My cat Bertie had a wonderful time with Leah. He was full of purrs when I got home and seemed very relaxed. Leah put me and Bertie at ease from the first meeting and was unbothered by my messy adhd home. 🤣🫣 She kept me updated on how her visit with Bertie went and followed all my instructions to the letter. I couldn't recommend her more.
