House Sitting Appleton

“Cannot recommend Anna enough. This was the first time I've ever had to leave my dogs with someone who wasn't family so naturally I was a bit anxious. From the initial meet and greet it was clear how caring Anna was going to be, she came armed with suitable questions to ensure she was going to give my dogs the VIP treatment. The updates whilst I was away were perfect and lots of gorgeous pictures of my babies! Will defo be thinking of Anna first if I need to leave them again.”

“Laura did a wonderful job with Luna over the weekend, provided updates and kept the house lovely and clean, even mopped the floors before leaving, would 100% book again”

About: I helped raise Alfie, a Cockapoo, for two years with my ex, which gave me valuable hands-on experience in caring for and training a dog from a young age. I also regularly look after my boss’s Cockapoo, Lottie, and have cared for several friends’ dogs and cats while they’ve been on holiday — most recently Sandy the Cavapoo and Lucy the Cocker Spaniel. And Coco the cat. I’m confident when it comes to looking after dogs and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I love going on long walks, but also cuddling up on the sofa and relaxing. I work Monday to Friday in an office. Dogs are allowed into the office with me. I have weekends completely free. I enjoy walking and running. I have a decent sized garden with a gate and it is fenced off. My home is cosy and warm and welcome to all dogs. Hopefully lots of cuddles on the sofa!

“Jodie has been an absolute super star with house sitting my two dogs for a week and I would highly recommend her. She works as a team with her mum Gillian and once I'd submitted my request they both came to meet my dogs and I. Josie was so attentive and understanding with of my dogs temperaments and needs, as one is old and blind and the other is quite anxious. Jodie took it all in her strid,mrssaged me with any questions and sent daily updates with pictures and videos which meant I could really relax and enjoy the holiday knowing my girls were in good hands. Jodie also cleansed and tidied the hosue for our return which was great to come back to. I'll definitely book Jodie again when I need to 😊”

About: Having had dogs all my life I am most content snuggled up on the couch with my fur baby! I used to work away a lot and know how hard it can be to find a stable caring environment to leave your fur baby with. I offer a home from home environment for your beloved pet and guarantee lots of walks and cuddles! My own dog Tilly loves company and would be a great companion during your fur baby’s stay! I provide all the home comforts to ensure your pet doesn’t get too home sick!! I have been looking after dogs all my life and love nothing better than walking down the transpennine way which is situated at the bottom of my road. I offer over night boarding for as short or as long as is needed Monday to Sunday.

“We couldn't have asked for a better house-sitter than Jordan. When he came to meet us and our dog, he was so polite and friendly, and clearly wanted to know all about her needs and routines. He provided lots of photos and updates throughout the time we were away. We got home to a very happy dog and a very clean and tidy house. He was extremely respectful of our home and attentive to our pet. We'd definitely ask Jordan to come and stay again! Highly recommend.”

“I felt so comfortable leaving Kal with Naomi, she’s responsible and caring and looked after him amazingly. She asks lots of questions so if obvious she takes the responsibility very seriously. She sent lots of pics so I could relax knowing he was happy and being well cared for. Will book her again soon.”

About: My experience with dogs began at seven years old on a farm, where animals were part of everyday life. Today, I care for a cocker spaniel and have had the privilege of raising two Ridgebacks. Caring for pets fits easily into my weekly routine. I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, so I’m flexible on those days, and I’m also available evenings and weekends. I offer a tailored approach to pet care by providing dog walking and in-home pet sitting services only. Care is carried out in the owner’s home, allowing pets to stay relaxed and comfortable in their usual environment.

“I highly recommend Nat !! It was the best decision ever. I felt relieved for 10 days while Nat was taking care of my kitten. She did an amazing job. She stayed with her all days and played with her a lot, and of course she made sure she had plenty of fresh food and water. She sent me lots of photos and videos, and I knew from day one that she was the right person for my cat. She's such a lovely girl, too. Thank you for everything, Nat. Chanel misses you and looking forward for another "baby" sitting. Xxxx”

“I can honestly say Victoria has been the best thing for our pets that we could have hoped for! Our German Shepherd is very needy and anxious when left. He lost 6 kilos in weight and didn't eat and sleep the last time we went on holiday. This time my husband actually wanted to cancel the holiday, but we were lucky enough to find Victoria, and have come home from to 2 very happy and relaxed pets. Our cat seemed to have carried on like we had been there all the time, and our GS is relaxed, happy and eating and sleeping as normal; in fact dare I say it, MORE than usual! Victoria kept in touch and kept us updated throughout our holiday, is lovely, experienced and personable, and we would have no hesitation in rebooking her or recommending her services. We feel extremely lucky to have found her through Rover. Thank you Victoria for looking after our pets so well. Sonia, Gray, Samson and Milo 🐾💕”

About: Hi, I'm Roxanna! 🐾 I've been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they've always been a huge part of my life. Over the years I've looked after dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, care and attention. For your peace of mind, I am *DBS checked* and *Canine First Aid trained*, so your dog's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I specialise in solo dog walks, meaning your dog receives my full attention on every walk without the distractions or stress of group walks. This allows me to tailor each walk to your dog's individual needs, pace and personality, ensuring they have a safe, enjoyable and enriching experience. I offer a reliable, caring and personalised service to help local families enjoy date nights, holidays or simply have peace of mind when work commitments mean they're away for longer than usual. Services I offer: 🐕 Solo Dog Walking 🏡 Dog Sitting (maximum one overnight stay) 🏠 Daily Home Check-ins Whether your dog is a playful puppy learning the ropes, an active adult, or an elderly companion needing a slower pace and extra care, I'll treat them as if they were my own. I take the time to build trust with every dog and always provide plenty of love, attention and care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe and in caring hands. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! I’m currently working part time as an assistant in a primary school. I fit my appointments in around my commitments. I currently dog sit one Saturday evening every month and carry out dog walking appointments during the day in the week. I take care of your dogs in your home. I offer an initial meet and greet appointment where I get to know you, your pup and your home. This is a great opportunity for you to give me details on your pups routine, what they do and don’t like, toilet and feeding information etc. I’m only a text or phone call away if you need to communicate and new information.

“Georgia and Matty spoiled Cooper whilst we were away. Loved the updates and photos sent. Think Cooper wasn’t happy were he as he’s missing his new besties. Recommend Georgia and Matty and will be booking them again in the near future”

About: I have adored animals for as long as I can remember. I began volunteering as a cat cuddler and dog pen cleaner at an animal rescue center as a teenager. We always had cats in our home growing up. I worked in a pet store for three years and feel I gained much knowledge and insight in doing so. Unfortunately my partner is allergic to pet hair so we do not have our own pets at our house. To get my animal fix I have been a member of 'borrow my doggy,' where I have regularly walked a number of dogs over the years. I have been trusted to house sit for friends over the years and have cared for dogs, cats and donkeys! I currently work part time so have plenty of availability. I am an avid daily walker so can offer your dog whatever level of exercise they require. As mentioned, I do not board pets in our own home due to my partners allergies. However, I am organized, trustworthy and responsible and have house sat in others homes many times. I will follow your instructions rigidly in regards to the care requirements of your home and pets. House sitting will be done by myself only.

About: Hi, I’m Octavian! Lifelong pet lover with a well-trained Labrador. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own! Happy to meet you I will do this full time, because I’m working from home like a sub-agent for an university and this is giving me plenty of time! I will feed them, walking them, play with them, and everything what the owners ask me for them pets to do it ! I can wash them

“We needed to find someone new to look after our two dogs when we are away. It’s such a worry but we have been very happy and relieved that we found Charlotte. She is very professional in her approach and goes the extra mile to make sure you are reassured that your pets are being well cared for. She’s sends regular photos and updates that are really helpful. Before our booking we did a meet and greet and the dogs instantly liked Charlotte - that was the real test! Charlotte will be staying for a week over summer for us and we are confident our dogs are in safe hands. Not only that but she has been very respectful of our home and keeping it clean and tidy.”

“As always Sophia was fabulous. She looks after Louis and his meds perfectly. I always know he is in safe hands. On top of that which is obviously the most important but she also stays at my house to make his anxiety easier and takes great care of my house too.”

“Absolutely stellar cat care provided by Lottie. Our Snapes has never had such VIP service to the point he was disappointed to see us return! Great communications throughout from Lottie, lovely way about her and she left our house immaculate. We’re very grateful she was able to help out and can’t recommend her highly enough.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbours cats since I was around 12. I also have a 12 year old Cavalier called Hughie who is my best friend. My whole life has been surrounded by animals and I love meeting new friends x I currently work part-time at Screwfix and am looking to expanding my options in my gap year. I am very flexible and am able to visit frequently. I have a fenced garden for my dog who has always been prone to escaping with bad recall. I am more than prepared to keep all pets where they should be, it’s like a 6th sense for me.

“Thank you for taking such great care of Olly. This was a last-minute booking, and we really appreciated how accommodating and helpful you were. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Olly was in good hands. Olly seemed happy and well looked after when we got back. We’ll definitely be using Karys again and would happily recommend her to others. Once again thank you so much!”
