“Jolene was fantastic with my dog who is blind and kept me regularly updated on how was. She kept good care of my place as well too while she was house sitting for 4 days. Would definitely reccommend to anyone looking for a house sitter!”

“Octavia looked after our dog lyra for the first time this weekend. She gave her time to get used to her and communicated with me throughout the weekend. Excellent dog sitter.”

“Thomas was absolutely fantastic with Noodle. He helped us out at the last minute and was on time, professional and asked a lot of thoughtful questions about caring for Noodle. We’d definitely ask Thomas again”

“Helen came to sit with Tess for part of a day. Tess was perfectly happy and relaxed with her, and Helen was friendly and asked all the right questions. Very happy with Helen.”


About: Hi, I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I’ve come back from university for a long holiday break and would love to welcome your dog into my family’s home to stay. I’m also available for dog walking and day care. We can offer a fenced and safe garden, comfortable sofa and plenty of time for cuddles, company, walks and playtime to all the dogs that stay with us. Our home is very dog friendly and full of treats and toys. We live local to the river and multiple green spaces for a variety of walks. Our family dog, Willow, is 5 years old, she’s an independent miniature poodle. I am happy to arrange a meet and greet before any booking if you would like to see how your dog gets on. I can also easily accommodate separate walks for your dog if you prefer. I want to make your pet feel like this is their home from home so if they have any special requests to make them feel comfortable then please feel free to ask 😁 I’m back from university so I’m available most days, including weekends. I will also be taking care of my own dog when my parents are at work, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I can easily accommodate a dog crate, if your dog is happiest sleeping there. I have a medium-sized fenced garden and live close to Bootham park and the river for nice walks. Your dog is welcome on the sofa and my priority is making them welcome and comfortable.
“Jonny helped us out at short notice. He was really friendly and communicative. Our dog Teddy seems to have had a really good time with him. Appreciated the photos throughout the day. Thanks Jonny!”

“Tamara was wonderful with Maude. I came home to a happy healthy pup who had blatantly had the best time with this lovely calm and confident young lady. Thank you so so much Tamara and I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area she’s a gem !”

“Emma looked after Misty for us whilst we had a family celebration day. Emma soon had Misty settled and comfy and they had a good day together which included two walks. Emma sent us photos and a video of their outings and Misty looked happy with their adventures. Misty has taken to Emma and we will certainly be using her services again. Thank you Emma for taking such good care of Misty for us.”

“Olivia was fab - arranged to come over to the house for a meet and greet to get to know our dog. All communication spot on. We had confidence that everything was going to be fine whilst we were away. Plus the dog seems knackered so they must have had a great time! Thank you, would get in touch again when the need arises 🌟😊”

“Gabby has just finished her dog sit for my little boy, Rolo. I cannot thank her enough! Gabby sat Rolo for 2 weeks whilst we were out of the country. I was nervous/anxious at first because we’d never left Rolo for so long but there really was no need for me to be! Gabby arrived on time as planned, which gave me plenty of time to go through instructions with her and take Rolo for a short walk. They had previously met when doing a meet and greet. Gabby messaged me every day with updates and photos, which I was really grateful for with this being a new experience for us and Rolo. My heart melted when Gabby sent me a photo of Rolo sleeping on his back, meaning that he was comfortable and trusted her. Gabby followed all instructions and checked with me if anything needed clarifying. She even watered my plants! I would highly recommend Gabby and plan on booking her in the future.”


“Katy was amazing with my puppies, who aren't the easiest. She looked after both my dogs and the most important thing was that the dogs were happy and comfortable while I was away. Excellent!!!”

About: I have had pets since I was 10 years old. I have had cats, dogs and kittens and also rabbits. I have experience looking after people’s kittens/cats/senior cats and also puppies/adult dogs and senior dogs. I have medication administration experience as our old senior cat had medical conditions which required medication. I love looking after furbabies to ensure their individual needs are being met taking into consideration their different personalities. I currently work a 9-5 job Monday to Friday but I am free evenings and over the weekend. Over the weekend I am more flexible to look after pets in my own home, take them for walks and do drop in sessions. I can also offer dog walking/ drop in sessions in the evening after work hours. I have a fenced backyard for your furbaby and I am a 5 minute walk away from a field. I am available to meet up prior to a sit/walk or drop in so I am able to meet you and your furbaby so you can assess who is going to look after your family member.
About: I adore animals and grew up with dogs, mainly terriers and labs so caring for them is second nature to me. I’ve worked in many places that are dog friendly also. I absolutely adore pets and and can’t wait to know yours. I’ve got over 10 years experience living with and minding pets, mainly dogs and cats, from puppies to rescues. I’m an active outdoorsy person so can provide that adventure if needed but also know a calm and comforting environment with a cuddle is sometimes what’s needed. I work freelance so my schedule is variable and flexible. I keep my calendar as up to date as possible but just get in touch if you’re interested and we can chat! I live in a new build flat, accessed via stairs in York. It is spacious and airy and near many green spaces with lovely walks and not far from the river and gardens. I welcome open communication so please share what your pet requires so I can best accomodate.
“Helen is a delight! Really helped us out at short notice, and took Fred from another sitter, despite not meeting Fred before, and it was a late-at-night sitting. Fred was looked after beautifully, and we could not be more thankful for Helen for allowing us to feel that Fred was in safe hands. 10/10.”

“What a find she is Emma is fantastic. Reliable, responsible and respectful. The dogs adored her and the house was clean and tidy for our return. Highly recommend Emma to anyone who asks and wish her the best for her future assignments”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Acomb is £30

Helen looked after our elderly whippet , Winston, yesterday. We were very impressed with the care and the professionalism she showed. When she visited to meet him, she arrived promptly and quickly ascertained what was needed to look after him successfully. She kept us very well informed during the day she looked after him and Winston was a happy whippet when we returned. Many thanks, Helen!
Yang is brilliant. It was my first time using Rover and leaving our two kittens but she made the whole process very easy and I would not hesitate to book her again. She sent lots of updates and photos and calmly managed all kinds of kitten chaos! Apart from two happy kittens, I would not have known Yang had been in the house as she left everything very tidy. Thank you Yang, I would definitely recommend you to others!
Joanne has been absolutely fantastic, she has looked after my babies so well. I have 3 dogs which can be a lot for some people but Joanna has been amazing. She sent me lots of pictures and videos which I love as I missed my dogs so much while I was away. She took great care of my house as well and I literally had 0 worries while I was away. Her communication was great and nothing was too much trouble. She really does care about animals so much and treats your pets like her own. She made my holiday completely stress free and I would happily book Joanne again and again to look after my dogs. Absolutely 5 stars 🌟

Lucy was great! We needed a last minute house sitter to look after Maple who had just come into season. Lucy was really flexible and managed to fit in a meet and greet beforehand, and Maple took to her so quickly. We felt very comfortable leaving Maple with her and would happily book with Lucy again!

Amie helped us out of a tricky situation on Christmas Day by looking after Teddy, our 10‑week‑old Cocker Spaniel puppy. She kept us updated throughout the day, and Teddy was calm and relaxed when we returned home. Amie is trustworthy, punctual, and someone we will definitely reach out to again. Highly recommended
