“Neo was very happy being looked after by Daisy, when he first met her he didn’t want her to leave. I left instructions advising we have been trying to teach Neo how to sit and when we returned after a week and I gave him a treat he sat straight away and has continued to do so since! I’m really impressed! We came home to a very happy and chilled boy!”
“Becky arrived on time, was calm and confident with our dog who can be a little nervous. Becky was polite and I completely trusted her in our house with our fur baby, she listened to all our instruction and concerns professionally. I will defiantly be booking Becky again.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently help care for our 3 family dogs and 1 cat, all with different breeds, ages, and personalities. I also look after family members’ and friends’ pets, one being a rescue dog. I am confident, caring, reliable, and very comfortable around animals. I always follow instructions carefully and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently working part time, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet sitting. I have my own car, so I’m able to travel easily and reliably for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home to help pets feel comfortable and keep their routine as normal as possible. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home by keeping to their usual routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow instructions from owners regarding feeding, walks, house rules, and any specific needs or behaviours. I keep the home clean and tidy and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care while their owners are away. I understand how important trust is when caring for both pets and someone’s home, and I always treat both with respect and responsibility.
“Mia was an excellent sitter and companion for our rescue dog. Very calm, kind and competent. Took the trouble to meet us first which was greatly appreciated as our dog doesn't warm to everyone. We needn't have worried as our dog clearly loves Mia! Thank you and we look forward to more bookings with you.”
“We're so lucky to have found Jane. Our house and the cats were very well looked after, and we received lots of updates. Communication with Jane is very prompt and clear. Hopefully next time we'll have more time to chat about our mutual interests!”
“Amelia was amazing with our puppy, who has separation anxiety. She was extremely reassuring, communicative and responsive and took amazing photos of our dog ! Would highly recommend her and won’t hesitate to book her again. Thank you so much Amelia :) x”
“Outstanding! Hannah did an amazing job of keeping my cats happy and me reassured. Willing to consider my/cat requests. Punctual and clear communication. Despite being away I felt my cats were safe. Home was in a much better state than I left it. Thank you very much!”
About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old university student home for the holidays and looking to earn some extra money doing something I genuinely love – caring for animals. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and currently have a dog, two tortoises, and a much-loved cat who has been part of my family for 16 years and still sleeps on my bed every night without fail! I’m reliable, caring, and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I am currently not working as i’m home from exeter university for summer. I am home everyday and able to attend to all your pets needs. I have a drivers license and so can walk your dog on the beach, the woods or just around fields nearby depending on its needs. I have a fenced garden aswell as 1 small friendly dog who gets along with everyone and everything. I also have 2 tortoises who are kept in a cage

So you can assured your adorable pooch is in safe good hands!

My availability is based around a rotating work pattern, so I am available every other week. During my available weeks, I can offer dog walking slots any day of the week, any time of the day to suit yours and your dogs needs!

Your dogs safety, wellbeing and comfort are always my top priorities! With 20+ years of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes (jack russels, great Danes and everything inbetween) i am confident in handling a wide range of behaviours including dogs that are very reactive, pull excessively and become very vocal! Being qualified in animal husbandry and canine care provides me with a key understanding of how dogs minds work and how to best structure walks for the most amount of engagement from your dogs!

I always use a calm, controlled handling methods and ensure dogs are securely managed on appropriate leads at all times.

About: I've looked after dogs and cats for the last 10 years. Dog wise, I have helped my friends and neighbours. Cats I spend a lot of time with including my own! I work full time but a lot of the time it is flexible and I can work from home. So I am flexible in the hours and support I can supply to meet needs. I always ensure I take the time to get to know the pet and ensure they have a friendly face around to make them feel comfortable. I can do whatever is asked of me, including taking bins out, drawing curtains etc if needed. I am fully DBS checked and am reliable.
“Morgan was friendly and knew exactly how to deal with our dogs. She sent pictures throughout her stay and left the house clean and tidy and our dogs were very happy and worn out when we got home. Would definitely recommend.”
About: Hi, I’m Dai, a reliable and caring dog sitter who provides pet sitting in your dog’s own home, allowing them to remain comfortable in familiar surroundings while you’re away. I’ve owned dogs for over 15 years and have spent that time caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities. Alongside looking after my own dogs, I’ve regularly cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, giving me valuable hands-on experience with a wide range of temperaments and routines. I work full-time in a remote role, which gives me the flexibility to work from different locations and spend more time with the pets in my care. This means your dog can enjoy companionship and attention throughout the day, rather than being left alone for long periods. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. In my spare time, I volunteer within the community, a role that requires me to hold a DBS check, providing additional reassurance to owners when entrusting me with their pets and property. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll ensure they receive the care, attention and exercise they need while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have complete peace of mind. My aim is simple: to provide a trustworthy, professional and caring service that keeps both you and your dog happy. Pet care fits well into my routine as I work remotely and can be flexible about where I work. This allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day, whether that’s providing companionship, feeding, walks or simply keeping them company in their own home. I am happy to work around a pet’s usual routine and keep owners updated regularly while they are away. When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. I take the time to understand each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise requirements, favourite activities and any specific instructions so that their day-to-day life remains as consistent as possible. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own. I am reliable, trustworthy and understand the importance of keeping both pets and property secure. My volunteering role requires me to hold a DBS check, providing additional reassurance to owners. I provide regular updates, photos and messages throughout each booking so owners can see how their pets are getting on and have peace of mind while they’re away. Whether caring for an energetic dog, a senior pet or an independent cat, I always aim to provide attentive, responsible and compassionate care.
“Alison took care of my much loved little cat Megan while I had a short holiday. Alison suggested a meet and greet session in my home beforehand and Megan immediately decided Alison was her new best friend 💕 so it was lovely for me to know Megan was in good hands and I could relax and have a lovely holiday. Came home to a spotlessly clean and tidy house and a very relaxed and happy Megan, who I know appreciated having her usual routine and of course plenty of cuddles! I hope Alison will be able to house sit for me again and I highly recommend her.”
“Hannah and Ryan plus their little doggies Maggie and Maisie are just the best! They have looked after my Teddy twice now and I wouldn't leave him with anyone else. Hannah sent me photos and messages all the time showing Teddy being happy at home with them :) made me have a more relaxed holiday knowing he was safe. Thank you again xxx”
About: I’ve had my own dog for 4 years. I’ve looked after both dogs and cats for neighbours for years and they were all different sizes and breeds. I also have experience with rover from over in the USA this year! I am currently home for the summer and don’t have a job so I have lots of availability across the whole week and throughout the whole day. I have a large garden and it is completely fenced off so it would be safe for your dog(s). I also have my own dog who is 4 years old and is super friendly

Becky arrived on time, was calm and confident with our dog who can be a little nervous. Becky was polite and I completely trusted her in our house with our fur baby, she listened to all our instruction and concerns professionally. I will defiantly be booking Becky again.
It’s the first time leaving our shihtzu Boss with someone else - I was a little worried but Amelia put my mind at ease. She took on our request at the last minute and welcomed my long list of things I had on my mind (sorry!!). I got updates regularly and Boss was so relaxed during his time with Amelia. Thank you!
I cannot recommend Mia highly enough for pet sitting. She recently looked after my two dogs, Dolly and Mimi, and did an absolutely incredible job. Mimi is anxious who usually struggles with new people and changes to her routine. Mia was patient and understanding of Mimi's specific needs. She took the time to make Mimi feel safe and comfortable, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Dolly also had a wonderful time and was clearly well-looked after. Mia is reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the animals she watches. I received updates, and it was obvious that both dogs were happy and relaxed in her care. I will definitely be booking Mia again in the future. Thank you so much, Mia!
Outstanding! Hannah did an amazing job of keeping my cats happy and me reassured. Willing to consider my/cat requests. Punctual and clear communication. Despite being away I felt my cats were safe. Home was in a much better state than I left it. Thank you very much!
Daisy responded really quickly to a very short notice enquiry. Animals all v comfortable with her. Happy to manage medication and multiple meal times for our old dog. Daisy provided updates during her stay. House clean and tidy when we got back, and the pets were all happy. Great to find someone reliable and flexible locally - I would definitely ask Daisy again if we need a sitter.
Rebecca was brilliant with our little Dachshund Frank. He is a little frustrated after recent surgery and is on restricted exercise. But Rebecca was great at giving him reassurance and cuddles. She communicated really well and was such a help to us at reasonably short notice. Highly recommend.
