House Sitting in Adur

“We had a great experience with Milo. Our dogs got attached to him quite quickly. He made efforts to meet and know the dogs before the actual sit, which gave us peace of mind that the dogs had become used to him. He sent us regular updates of his planned day with the dogs and also sent photos like we requested. He followed the dogs routine for walks and meals. The highlight of his stay was he was successful in taking our nervous dog for a walk, which showed his ability to handle dogs with different needs. We trust him with our dogs and will definitely use him again and highly recommend him. Thanks for looking after the dogs for us Milo! :-)”

“Can’t recommend Emily highly enough! She did a great job of looking after our dog, following care instructions, sending updates, and taking care of the flat. Came home after a long weekend away to a happy dog and tidy home. Thank you, Emily!”

“Jordan is highly competent, confident, respectful and considerate. This was our first time leaving our dog to be looked after by a dog sitter and we felt immediately at ease after meeting with Jordan; and throughout our time away.”

“Amanda looked after Peggy Sue so well when I was away and was very communicative and sent photos to put my mind at rest. Will not hesitate to book her again if she’s available!”

“I couldn’t be happier with Leah and our 3 dogs loved her. She is communicative, friendly and reliable. The house was left immaculate and she coped calmly when one of the dogs was unwell. I will definitely ask her to come back.”

“Evie took perfect care of our home and Labrador Peggy while we were away for a week. It's always a little daunting to leave the things you care most about in someone else's hands but meeting Evie was reassuring. While we were away she sent us updates and photos so we could see how relaxed and happy Peggy was with her. We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing our home and Peggy were well taken care of. We would absolutely use Evie as a dog sitter again and would recommend her to others.”

About: Having a dog ourselves, we know how hard it can be to leave your dog behind when you go on holiday, away for the weekend, or even just out for the day. They’re part of the family, and trusting someone else to care for them isn’t always easy. We understand that feeling firsthand, so we’ll always go above and beyond to make sure both you and your dog feel comfortable. We’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you know how they’re getting on while you’re away. Your dog will be treated just like one of our own, while also respecting any routines, preferences, or little quirks they might have. Our goal is to make sure they feel happy, safe, and at home while they’re with us. I have grown up surrounded by rescue dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, which has given me a real understanding of how different every dog’s needs can be. As an adult, I’ve regularly looked after my mum’s three rescue dogs when she’s away. This includes daily care, safe and enjoyable walks and making sure they’re happy, settled, and well looked after at all times. I’m very attentive to routines, safety, and individual needs, whether that’s exercise or plenty of fuss and cuddles on their terms. From personal experience, I know how important it is for dog owners to feel reassured that their pet will be treated as part of the family, and that’s exactly the level of care, love, and respect I give to every dog I look after. One of us currently works part-time from home, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and cuddles throughout the day. Alongside us, we share our home with our dog, Dolly, who loves to play and is always happy to give visiting dogs lots of attention. We’re available for weekday boarding, as well as doggy day care and drop-in visits or walks, and we aim to make every dog feel relaxed, loved, and right at home while they’re with us. They are welcome on the sofa and bed for cuddles, if they’re allowed at home of course 🙂 We live in a house on a quiet residential road close to Hove Park, with a fully enclosed garden where dogs can safely do their business and enjoy some fresh air. We’re lucky to have great walking routes right on our doorstep, which means plenty of long, enjoyable walks and outdoor time if your dog needs it. Our own dog, Dolly, is out and about several times a day for relaxed sniffs around the neighbourhood and trips to Hove Park, and we’re more than happy to include your dog in these routines so they feel settled, stimulated, and right at home.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Ava provided for our senior boxer, Picasso! From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect fit. Ava took such great care of Picasso in our home, ensuring he felt loved, safe, and comfortable. When we returned, Picasso was happy and content, which is all we could ask for. It was clear that she gave him plenty of attention and made him feel right at home. Ava also brought up a concern about Picasso not eating, and we really appreciated her attentiveness. We reassured her that he’s very sensitive to changes in routine and environment, so it’s not unusual for him to be a bit picky. Her thoughtful communication made us feel at ease while we were away. Not only did Ava provide exceptional care for Picasso, but she also left our house spotless! We truly appreciate how she went above and beyond. We would highly recommend Ava to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Setting up a house-sitting session with Beth was a breeze. She sent plenty of updates and both of our pets took to her immediately. Thanks, Beth. We’ll be calling on you again, I’m sure.”

“Absolutely professional service. I will definitely recommend Steven for your pet sitting/care needs. Very calm and understanding which are qualities you look for and need when you are away. Our little Wolf was poirly whilst we were away and we were so hapoy that he was our pet sitter during that time. We can’t thank him enough for it. Have already booked him again to look after our fur babies”

“Carly was amazing! Was very quick to respond when we first contacted her and came over to meet Bentley prior to having him. We had a hiccup with keys for Carly upon her arrival to come look after Bentley and Carly handled the whole situation magnificently! We came back to a very happy dog and she sent us updates of how he got on. Highly recommend her enthusiasm, friendliness and expertise with dogs. Thank you again and so glad to have found someone going forward to have our little fur baby!”

About: Hi, I'm Sophie! I provide dedicated, professional care for your pets right in the comfort of their own home. I understand that many animals feel most relaxed in their familiar surroundings, so I come to you to ensure they stay happy, calm, and well-cared for while you're away. I have grown up with animals my entire life, but my experience goes far beyond that. I previously spent time volunteering at the Dogs Trust in Shoreham, which gave me invaluable hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds and temperaments. Why choose me to visit your home? Experience & Trust: My time at Dogs Trust means I am confident, patient, and safety-conscious. Undivided Attention: Your pet won't be competing for attention with other animals; my focus is 100% on them. Flexible Schedule: Juggling a part-time job and a degree means I have great mid-week availability for walks and home visits. Updates: I’m a great communicator and will send you plenty of photos so you can see how much fun they’re having! I am an animal-obsessed person who will treat your fur baby like royalty. Whether it’s an energetic walk or just some midday company and cuddles, I’d love to help. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet! ☺️ I am currently working part-time and completing a part-time degree. I only work three days a week, so I have plenty of free time during the week. I am passionate about animals and love spending time with them, and would love to meet and care for your fur baby ☺️ I am very confident with dealing with animals as I have grown up with them my whole life. My garden is fully fenced and my cat and dog are very friendly.

“Ellie looked after our two dogs really well whilst we were away for the weekend. She sent us lots of updates and was very communicative. One of our dogs is nervous and refused to go on a walk but Ellie was very nice to her and didn't force her. When we got back our house was super clean and Ellie had even made us cupcakes!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, from dogs, cats and rabbits to chickens, goats, pigs, and even horses. Growing up in the Caribbean, I was always surrounded by animals, which shaped my patience, empathy, and ability to connect with pets of all personalities. I have years of hands on experience raising and training dogs from puppyhood, including teaching basic commands, building trust, and keeping them happy, active, and well cared for. Being around a wide range of animals has made me confident, calm, and attentive to different needs and behaviours. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet company, I adapt to each pet’s needs to give them the best possible care. 🐶💛 As a law student, my schedule is structured enough to be reliable but flexible enough to give pets the time and attention they deserve. My classes fall on Tuesdays (2pm to 4pm), Thursdays (all day) and Friday mornings (9am to 1pm). Outside of those hours, I am fully available and happy to provide consistent care, playtime and companionship. Here is a quick look at my availability: Monday: Available all day Tuesday: Available before 2pm and after 5pm Wednesday: Available all day Thursday: Available after 5pm Friday: Available after 1pm Saturday: Available all day Sunday: Available all day For boarding, I am always home by 5pm every day of the week, so your pet will never be left alone overnight. Whether you need daycare, a home visit or a longer stay, I am happy to work around your schedule. I care for pets in my home by treating them as if they were my own. My apartment is secure and pet friendly, with any hazards safely out of reach. Pets are welcome to relax, play and make themselves comfortable wherever they like, whether that's on the couch, in my bed or just lounging around. I give every pet plenty of attention, companionship and affection throughout the day. I also have a gated pet garden which is perfect for outdoor time in a safe and enclosed space. Pets will never be left outside unsupervised and will always be under my watch. I don't typically use crate training as I prefer to create a relaxed and trusting environment where pets feel safe and loved. My goal is to make sure every pet in my care has a secure, comfortable and happy experience from the moment they arrive to the moment they go home.

“Kei was great and Coco had a lovely weekend in his careful care. He spent time helping with Cocos lead walking and really put the effort in to ensure that Cocos I her own surroundings had a lovely weekend too. Kei stayed at my house and I was totally comfortable with him staying here. The house was cleaner than when I left it! Will certainly use Kei again. Many thanks”
