About: I have taken care of & loved all the dogs we had when I was growing up and now enjoy looking after our daughters rescue greyhound Dolly I am currantly not working but do look after our grand daughters on a Thursday & Friday. I try to be flexible around weekdays and weekend & the services I can provide at the time of enquiries I have a safe, fenced in garden and live in a quiet village with lots of lovely country walks of varying duration on my doorstep.
About: Me and my partner, Bronwen, have both always had family pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and more! We have experience with puppies and older dogs and cats, and are both physically active and happy to exercise energetic dogs. We both work from home almost every day, with flexible hours, lunch breaks and access to a car for transportation. We regularly go for runs and walks and would love to have company! We have a large and secure garden for your dog to run around and quiet indoor rooms for them to relax. We are able to work remotely from your home if preferred.
“Emily looked after our cheeky tabbies for 3 days and did a wonderful job! She spent a lot of time with them which was lovely and the cats seemed to really like her even our scaredy cat! Thanks again and will be definitely using Emily again.”
About: I am here because i would like to become more active and take more care with my health so i would love to have some company on my walks! I have grown up with dogs and other animals so i believe i have a good range of knowledge when it comes down to animals. I love being around animals, and looking after them. It’s so rewarding knowing that animals are loved the way humans are I currently work a full time job however i’m semi flexible when it comes down to looking after your pets! I don’t work Thursdays and Fridays (unless requested otherwise) so i’m completely free then. As for the weekends, i only work 4 hours per day (5-9am) , so im usually available all day after then!☺️ I would ensure that the surroundings both inside and outside of the home are safe. Such as fencing being secure so that your dog cannot escape or any intruders cannot access inside. Also i would ensure that there is no dangerous objects that your pets could chew such as loose cables, small objects etc.

About: Hi I’m Niyah, I’m 24 and local in the Cumbria area! Trusting someone new with your beloved pet can be scary, at the end of the day they’re part of the family and a big responsibility, so here’s why I would be a wonderful sitter for your furry friend. First of all I have many fury pets of my own, dogs and cats and I’ve grown up around them, walkies, playing with them and simply having them be my biggest companions. I love to go dog walking on any day and I’m always available if your pet is needing a feed, bathing or letting out, I’ve been trusted by friends and neighbours and now I’d love to meet some pets around my community. I know the importance of your pets physical and mental stimulation and I am spending my time studying animal care to gain knowledge and more experience in what I love ! I’m currently working full time but alternating shift patterns and frequent days off, so I have plenty of time to visit your furry friend and take care of them wether it’s a nice long walk or an indoor play, feed, bathe or a sitter I will always be around and happy to help. My availability is frequent but please do ask in advance so i can ensure I will be there for you consitantly , I can only provide home sitting for 1 night at a time due to working commitments. I will be providing care for your pets within your home to ensure they are in a comfortable and familiar environment with all of their toys, snacks and necessities right at hand at all times and this will also make it easier for you as no need to bring them anywhere, I can also provide things of my own if requested. If your pet is requiring a walk or will be taken out of your home I can ensure that your pet will be kept safe on a lead and a trusted familiar route and I will always have a water bowl and a ball to chase on me so that this walk is the most fun your dog will have in the day!

Sharon A.
“Sharon was amazing looking after our dog Dolly for three weeks whilst we were away on Holiday. She cared for her like she was her own dog, gave her lots of love and long walks. We are pretty sure our dog didn’t want to come home! She also understood that our dog is not always comfortable with other dogs, and can’t always be let off the lead, and we trusted that she knew what she was doing. I cannot recommend Sharon more to look after your dog or to take your dog for walks. She sent us lots of updates of Dolly and reassured us she was ok. Any dog is lucky to have Sharon be the one to take care of them.”
Kieran W.
“Kieran has loved having a dog in his family since he was a youngster and has often had sole responsibility for caring for the family dog. Now he has moved into his own home, he rarely sees the family dog, and is surely missing the fun, friendship and companionship having a dog around brings. Other commitments mean he can't have his own at the moment, but he has a lot of love, energy and experience to bring to supporting other people with their dogs. He is mature, reliable, trustworthy, and loves long walks, and of course dogs!”

Niyah H.
“Niyah always used to take our dog Lola for a walk when we were both working - all weathers rain or shine! Lola used to get excited every time she saw her, and knew she was in for a fun walk with lots of stick throwing and treats involved :) Niyah is an absolute animal lover, who also looked after our 3 cats if we went on holiday. So much so they would sulk when we returned from holiday! Very trustworthy, and highly recommended.”
