House Sitting Andover

“Jade is a lovely kind person who came in her own time before the booking to meet the dogs. I knew she was the right person when she got straight down and gave them both stocks and belly rubs. Our puppy Golden took to her straight away. On the day of the booking she arrived lovely and early and sent us lots of updates which was such a nice touch. I would recommend her to anyone who, like me, is very picky about leaving their pets with anyone. Thank you Jade for taking good care to f them both.”

“Great first experience with Megan today for our dog, Keda. Can’t wait to rebook! Communication was fab, she arrived with plenty of time and was lovely to talk to and kindly took Keda on a long walk and kept her company. Would highly recommend”

“Viktoria was a pleasant and reliable pet-sitter at our house overnight while we were all away for the weekend. She kept us up to date and sent photos of the dogs and cat, fed them and gave our cat its meds. They were all very relaxed when we got home.”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs - from tiny chihuahuas to great weimaraners! My family have always kept dogs as pets so I have a lot of personal experience. If any one needs a dog sitter (friends, family, neighbours) I am the go to. My regular clients include: 🐾 Pete the Romanian street dog - a senior rescue who I have taken care of since he was just 14 months (he is now 10!). At nearly 30kg, he still thinks he's king of the streets and has some high needs, including lots of play time, long walks and private feeding. A total softie and sweetheart all round. 🐾 Dudley the jackapoo, Lottie the cockapoo, Woody the labradoodle and Rhea the frenchie - these four all live together and have varying needs. Woody being the biggest naturally needs the longest and an extra walk a day, as well as Lottie who is incredibly high energy. She can play fetch until your arm falls off! Dudley is an old man now who needs extra care due to his cataracts and Rhea is a spritely young thing who needs to remain separated from the others at all times. 🐾 Howard the frenchie - Howard is a very laid back and loving frenchie who is now 7. I've known him since he was a pup and although hes not quite an old man yet, his careplan has been adjusted to meet his slowing pace. He still loves playtime but also loves to cuddle up on the sofa and share the bed at night. 🐾 Bella the golden retriever - Bella is another older dog who I've looked after since she was a puppy. The old girl will surprise you though, she's still as active as she was when she was small. I also use to provide care for he little brother Dudley, a black labrador. They use to do everything together, even walks but he sadly passed away. I can currently only provide house sitting on weekends but I can offer walks and drop ins all day, everyday. I hope to offer boarding and day care soon. I have a large garden and my house backs onto ladies walk so plenty of space to run around and lovely countryside for long walks. I have my own small dog (cavapoo), he is friendly but if your dog doesnt like other dogs, I have the means to keep them separated. There is space for a crate if that's what your dog prefers. We usually go for walks morning and evening but this can be adjusted where necessary.

About: I have had dogs now for almost 10 years and have trained and walked multiple dogs of friends and family. I am certified dog trainer and know all basic training techniques. I have a small home but plenty of walking trails and fields. Me and my partner work opposite shifts so we would be able to take care of your pets through the whole day. Overnight or weekends are always welcome. I have a fenced yard with plenty of comfy spots. We have a 7am breakfast time and 7pm dinner time but can be flexible to the needs of your dog.

About: I had my gorgeous cocker spaniel dog from the age of 10-22, he unfortunately passed away a in May 2023 and since then I have been desperate to look after other dogs and to continue the activities that I did with mine. I am sporty and active, so dog walking and playing with them is an easy yes from me! I am completely aware and knowledgable of the health and safety guides for dogs! My boyfriend also has a boxer dog who I am extremely friendly and attached with so bigger and stronger dogs are not an issue for me. I am currently living at my family home for the next year after finishing university and am looking to fulfil my time here with caring for and walking dogs whenever possible! I have a fenced garden and chicken wire all around the bushes to prevent escaping or accidental wondering off - I own a huge field perfect for walking by my house which connects to other walking fields to walk by and play around safely - everything is walking distance but also living near other amazing places to walk your dogs

“Absolutely delighted with Alice, our pet sitter! Our dog enjoyed long, happy walks and our cats were clearly well cared for and content. The house was left immaculate and communication was excellent throughout – prompt, friendly, and reassuring. I highly recommend and would definitely use her services again!”

Rachel B.

“I can't recommend Jackie enough! From the initial meet and greet, it was clear she has a real love for animals and knows how to handle dogs of all temperaments. Bear was very happy in her company and her calm nature put him at ease! We look forward to future bookings with Jackie!”

Gursh S.

“Millie house sat our two dogs Skye and Kira overnight and we can not fault her! Communication from the start was brilliant, she came to meet us and our dogs before the booking and was friendly and understanding about their different needs. Whilst we were away she sent us updates and some photos which reassured me that we had left our dogs in good hands. Our dogs really liked Millie and we will be happy to rebook her next time we need them looked after!”

Emma C.

“I would recommend Melanie to anyone and everyone needing someone to look after their dog. She looked after our cockapoo Dougal whilst we were getting married. Dougal is full of energy and can quite often be a little full on, this was his first time staying with someone he didn’t know so we were a little nervous as to how he might be but we really didn’t need to be! From the moment Melanie arrived we were all put at immediate ease (including Dougal) that we’d made the right choice for Dougal. Throughout the weekend Melanie so kindly kept us updated with videos and pictures so we knew we didn’t have a single thing to worry about and could enjoy our wedding without a worry! She took him on so many walks and adventures that I’m sure Dougal is now back with his parents and not his new best friend! We truly cannot thank you enough! Xxxx”

“Hazel was excellent with our Golden Retriever Milo, she arrived on time was friendly helpful and experienced. She also kept in touch sending a photo of Milo to us during the evening. Would definitely use Hazel again.”

About: I frequently care for and walk my sister's Golden Retriever, Monty. In addition to my personal experience with dogs, I have recently returned from volunteering at Udruga Farmica, a non-profit animal shelter that currently cares for 132 dogs, 1 cat, 3 cows, 6 sheep, 2 donkeys, 2 ponies, and 4 pigs. I volunteered there for 3 months this year, having previously spent one month volunteering in December. It was an incredibly rewarding and meaningful experience that allowed me to gain hands-on experience in animal care, including feeding, administering medication, accompanying animals on veterinary visits, exercising dogs through regular walks, and providing enrichment through play and social interaction. Many of the dogs at the shelter had previously lived as street strays and, as a result, often displayed a range of behavioural challenges. Through my volunteering, I learned how to adapt my approach to suit each dog’s individual needs, helping them build trust and confidence while supporting basic training and positive behavioural development.I would be happy to provide a personal reference from the manager of the organisation upon request. Last year, I made the decision to resign from my role as a Funeral Arranger in order to pursue my passion for travel and animal welfare. This led me to spend time abroad volunteering at a very special animal shelter in Croatia, where I gained invaluable hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals. Having recently returned to the UK, I am currently helping my sister care for her children while my brother-in-law is working away. Two of the children have additional needs, which has further strengthened my patience, adaptability, and caring nature. As my support is provided on a flexible basis, I currently have full availability and can accommodate a wide range of working hours, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and short-notice bookings. I understand that every pet is unique and that entering a pet’s home means stepping into their safe space and established routine. When caring for a dog or cat in someone else’s home, I take the time to learn their individual needs, habits, likes, dislikes, and any special requirements they may have. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household rules to ensure consistency and minimise stress while their owners are away. Safety is always my highest priority. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, remove any potential hazards, and remain attentive to changes in behaviour that may indicate discomfort, illness, or anxiety. I understand that pets can feel unsettled when their owners are absent, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring environment where they feel comfortable and secure. Whether that means energetic walks and playtime for an active dog or quiet companionship and gentle affection for a senior cat, I adapt my approach to suit each animal’s personality. My goal is not only to meet a pet’s basic needs but to ensure they feel loved, safe, and happy while maintaining the routines and standards of care they are accustomed to. I treat every animal as if they were my own and every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own.

“Megan was amazing, looked after my 4 month old puppy all day keeping him entertained! Would recommend:)”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had smaller pets such as cats, hamsters, and rabbits, which sparked my interest in animal care and rescue—especially with dogs. Over the past 8 years, I’ve gained valuable experience in dog behavior and care through attending training seminars, volunteering at local shelters, and providing dog walking and sitting for friends, family, and private clients. I am currently volunteering at the RSPCA in Stubbington. I've had to go through specific dog walking training on how to approach dogs who are struggling in the shelter. From being nervous and scared, to excitable and playful. I've cared for new born puppies, taken dogs to vet appointments and even cared for Tortoises. Through word of mouth, I’ve built a loyal private client base that I’m excited to continue growing. Caring for animals brings me immense joy, and I’m working toward a long-term career in animal care. I’ve recently begun a Veterinary Nursing course to further develop my knowledge and skills. I'm currently working part-time at Sparsholt College and University. This enables me to continue caring for animals in my spare time. I have Saturday to Tuesday free for Dog walking and sitting. I'm currently not able to have pets at my home as I have 3 cats in the house. 1 elderly who does not take to new pets.

“Josie was absolutely fabulous and we are so appreciative that she was able to stay with and look after our cat Juju for a whole week. Juju clearly took to her! Will definitely be asking her to look after our fur babies again. Thank you, Josie!”

“Emily was very proffesional and looked after our two dogs very well. Emily kept us updated with photos we would recommend Emily and use her again.”

About: I’ve been walking dogs since I was 14, starting by helping an elderly lady with her dogs. That experience taught me how important patience, reliability, and understanding each dog’s individual needs are. I also have my own Pomeranians, so I’m used to caring for high maintenance breeds that require plenty of attention and exercise. (My dogs will not be there whilst looking after yours) Looking after my own dogs has given me hands on experience with different personalities, routines, and care requirements. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll, an energetic walk, or simply providing lots of love and attention, I’m committed to giving every pet the best possible care. As a teacher, I’m available to walk dogs on weekends throughout the year. During school holidays and half terms, which are frequent, I have much more flexibility and am available for dog sitting, drop in visits, and longer periods of care while you’re away. This means your pet can enjoy plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship during your holiday bookings, giving you peace of mind that they’re in safe and caring hands. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ve recently bought my own home, which has a secure, fully fenced garden with plenty of space for dogs to run around, play, and go to the toilet safely. Inside, my home is clean, calm, and welcoming, with plenty of room for pets to relax. During warmer weather, the house stays nice and cool, helping to keep dogs comfortable and prevent them from overheating. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention, so they feel happy and at home while they’re with me. If your pet is more comfortable in familiar surroundings, I’m also happy to pet sit in your home, ensuring they can stick to their usual routine while receiving the same loving, reliable care.

“Celente is a great sitter. She is very calm and friendly and our nervous rescue Charlie took to her straight away. She follows all of our (sometimes strange!) Instructions always and we have great peace of mind when she sits for Charlie. Great communication and updates and we would highly recommend.”

“Alex and her partner were fantastic looking after our dog in our home. They were very friendly, flexible and reliable. Winnie had a great time and we would definitely book again!”
