“Joëlla was very professional and we think that Maverick liked her - we got home to a happy doggo. She kept me updated and communicated easy and efficient from the beginning. Her notes were very detailed and the photos were great. It is the first time I used this app and I am super happy with the experience.”
“Sean did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away on holiday. He visited twice a day, fed them, cleaned their bowls, and even took the rubbish out before we got back — everything was spotless when we returned. From the very first meeting, our cats liked him right away — he was friendly, positive, and calm, which made us feel confident too. We really appreciated the detailed updates with photos he sent after each visit. It was great to know when the cats came out, how many showed up, and how they were behaving. We felt very reassured and knew our cats were in good hands. Thank you, Sean!”
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs and cats since I was a teenager. My neighbours and friends relied on me to walk, feed and care for their pets whilst they were away on holiday. I do have a full time job however I work shifts and have plenty of days off, (My calendar will always be updated to my off days) so they will not be left alone & I will still have a lot of time to play and look after your pet. I do not have any other pets at the property so your pet will be my No.1 priority. The flat has a communal garden so toilet breaks will be regular. I live around a lot of wildlife living near the chilterns and will be able to take them on long and interesting walks!
About: Lifelong dog lover but sadly can’t be an owner as travel overseas too often. I am very experienced handling dogs as I used to be a volunteer dog walker for Hearing Dogs for the deaf plus another charity called the Cinnamon Trust. I have also been walking my neighbours black Labrador once a week for the past six years (he is featured in my profile picture). I am a retired gentleman so I am generally available all the time. I can easily travel and am happy to take dogs in my vehicle. I walk for at least an hour every day and know many varied walking routes in the Aylesbury Vale area. I am friendly, approachable and easy to communicate with. Through membership of another website I walk two labradors separately over three separate walks each week. With regards to the two Labradors I occasionally have them for overnight stays at my home. I have been doing this since February 2022 and have built up deep trusted relationships with both dogs. I have been fully retired since 2013 and am generally available for dog walks most days between 10am and 5pm. I do travel both in the UK and overseas for a total of 3 months a year spread throughout the year. I have a large very secure garden and keep no pets of my own at my property which is very private and detached. I live adjacent to open countryside and have a car which I am happy to take dogs in.
About: I'm a pet sitter and dog walker who genuinely loves spending time with animals and understanding what helps them feel calm, happy and secure. I'm patient, gently and tuned into the small details, whether that's keeping routines steady, offering extra cuddles, or giving a nervous dog a slow, reassuring walk. Whether I'm caring for pets at home or taking dogs out for relaxed, enjoyable walks, I treat every animal like a friend I'm responsible for, making sure they feel comfortable, understood and well looked after while you're away. I endeavour to be the next best companion to your much loved pet in your absence. I’m currently working part‑time, which means I have plenty of time and energy to give your cats and dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company, I’m fully present for them. I’m available every day of the week from 11am onwards, including weekends, so you can count on me to be flexible and reliable whenever you need support. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your routines closely, keep a careful eye on their environment, and make sure they feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I love creating fun, engaging moments, whether that’s playtime, gentle affection, or simply being a calm, reassuring presence. I treat your home with the same respect I give your pets, keeping everything tidy, clean, and exactly as you left it. My goal is to make your pets feel happy and cared for, and for you to feel completely at ease.
About: We have 2 children (aged 10 and 8) who are massive animal lovers. I grew up with dogs, my first dog was when I was 2. Ben was my best friend and I helped to look after him in his old, poorly age. I have also had a dalmatian and collie cross - high energy dogs! My husband, Steve, works from home and has looked after dogs for many years. We currently have the most friendly golden retriever who LOVES other dogs! We have 2 cats, who stay out of the way, and 2 rats, who are nosey and love coming to say hello at the edge of the cage. All dogs need to be child friendly, as our two children will actively help to look after any visitors, with lots of play time and cuddles! Either myself or Steve will be the main caregiver to your fur baby. My husband works from home and our children's school is walking distance. The backdoor is always open so there is free flow to the enclosed garden. Lots of play time, cuddles and walks will be offered throughout the day. We have an enclosed garden offering lots of place to play. We have a golden retriever who loves other dogs and will offer lots of company.
About: I’ve had dogs growing up and have my own cocker spaniel Louis who is affectionate friendly and fun loving. I’m a confident dog owner and we welcome all types of dogs in our home. I’ve got a lots of experience both dog walking and sitting and I’m happy to walk nervous or reactive dogs. I work from home and dogs in my care get plenty of attention. I have an enclosed garden and lots of space for walks nearby. It’s a friendly and chilled home with lots of space to play and relax. We treat all dogs like our own and are confident they will have a great time with us. I have a friendly cocker spaniel Louis ( he is neutered) and a fox terrier called Hattie who both love other dogs. I’m caring and confident and will take great care of your dogs!
“So pleased with Rebecca's visit, loved the pictures she sent and the report. Jasmine obviously liked her. Will definitely use Rebecca again and highly recommend. Thanks soooo much! Happy Christmas xxx”
“Zoe was extremely reliable, professional and kind to Bonnie, our elderly golden retriever. She was very amenable to Bonnie's needs and quirks and Bonnie took an instant liking to her.”
About: When I was a teenager I used to feed the dogs and cats for a neighbour when they went on holiday. My partner also used to have dogs so I am used to walking dogs, they were both huskies. We also have pastoral dogs at school so I used to being around smaller dogs. I work from home so am around all year to look after your doggos or cats. We have large fields behind our home so we have lots of room for walks and zoomies 😊 I have a fenced garden and a partner who has had many pets (cats and dogs) in the past. We are both calm and patient and friendly and have a loving home to board your pet.
About: I love all dogs and have owned many breeds. I am comfortable playing with my Dad’s Pomeranian or my sisters Staffordshire bull terrier. I grew up with jack russells and setters. I love making sure they have a good run around and also get to play indoors and are kept engaged. I love cuddles on the sofa and making sure they got lots of attention. I’m fit and active and can make sure they have a good walk. I’m a dog lover currently inbetween jobs (and usually work from home or in a hybrid capacity) so am fully available at home and living next to a park. I am in a ground floor flat so White Hill park is technically my garden. I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently live vicariously through helping friends and family with theirs. I miss the cuddles, playing and company of dogs so being able to help people with theirs perfectly aligns with my current schedule. I don’t drive but the park is right outside. Although I have access to a car if need be. I live in a ground floor flat with the security door just outside my front door so there are no safety/escape issues. I can let them out for the toilet whenever they need it. I have throws on my sofa so dogs are welcome on my furniture. I’ve always considered dogs part of the family so I don’t mind them on the sofa. My flat is quite big so there is plenty of room for their beds, crates and toys - whatever the owners preference.
About: Hello! My name is Victoria, and I’m a passionate, reliable, and experienced pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals of all kinds. From playful puppies to gentle senior cats, I’ve always felt a deep connection to pets and their unique personalities. Growing up in a home filled with furry companions taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and attentive care.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life; I grew up caring for a variety of dogs. I have extensive experience with puppies, rescue dogs, and senior pets, and I am well-versed in managing canine anxiety and implementing training methods for young dogs. Because I currently work from home, I have the flexibility to provide daytime walks or check-ins. I am also happy to host pets in my home, which features an enclosed garden and is located near excellent walking areas. To ensure a smooth transition and keep your pet comfortable, I will strictly follow their established routines regarding mealtimes, food, and treats. Working from home, I am easily able to meet your pets' needs, and can adapt my responsibilities to fit in walks and exercising, mealtimes etc. I have an enclosed fenced garden , regular garden breaks as Patio doors are open most the time depending on weather. I give the dogs plenty of massages and fuss.
About: Flexible working hours and working from home means either myself or my husband will always be around. Your pets will be looked after with lots of attention and care. We understand how hard it can be to find support and want to pass this on. I currently work from home with very flexible hours as I am self-employed so I will always be around to offer support and care if your pets stay here. Large fenced off garden, plenty of space in the home and no children. We have a dog ourselves who likes other pets but does not tend to interact much with them so your pets will be comfortable here.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life until recently, and I’ve only had collies which require a lot of attention and walking. This means I am used to high maintenance dogs and enjoy long walks 😁 I’m working part time, sometimes 2 shifts a week and sometimes none, which means I have lots of spare time to look after dogs! I have a large fenced garden along with a small fenced garden where our collie used to go outside for small trips, I also have a small inside utility room which is fenced for dogs to stay if they need to.
“Very good communication and managed to fit us in on a Sunday at short notice. Karen was very kind and understanding about Bruno's 'quirks', and took care of all his needs on a very hot day! Would definitely recommend her and will use again. Thank you Karen 😊”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is simple: I take your pet’s care as seriously as you do. You can count on me to follow instructions to the letter, keep you updated, and make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and believe peace of mind shouldn’t be optional. As a personal trainer with flexible hours, I’m able to fit pet care naturally into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule allows me to be available during the day, evenings, and weekends, so your pet gets the attention and care they deserve without feeling rushed. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just some extra company, I’m there when they need me most. When caring for pets in their own home, I do everything I can to keep them comfortable and happy in their familiar space. I follow their routine closely — from feeding and fresh water to playtime and walks (if needed). I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and company so they don’t feel alone while you’re away. I also respect your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always leave it just as I found it — with a happy, well-cared-for pet ready to greet you when you return!

They gets lots of love, i love all animals, and i am looking to share that love with your pets. I am unemployed so have spare time to spend with your pets. Morning are usually walkies for my dog so afternoon/evenings i am available, but can do mornings if really needed. For me pets are family so they get shown the same amount of love and respect as any other family member. I am patient and probably treat them better than people!
About: I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, especially cats and dogs. Having grown up around them and now caring for my own, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and routines. I know how important it is to provide not just food and exercise, but also attention, affection, and a calm, safe environment. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy cat, I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and always respectful of the trust people place in me when I’m looking after their pets. You can count on me to treat them like part of the family—because to me, they truly are. Working in a school means I have a consistent schedule and plenty of holidays, which gives me the flexibility to offer reliable care—especially during peak times like school breaks and summer. It’s the perfect balance, allowing me to dedicate quality time to looking after pets when others are away. I’m happy to travel locally to care for pets and can easily get around since I drive.

Olivia looked after our cats while we were on holiday for one week. She was coming every morning to give them food, clean the litter box and play with them. We did receive daily photo updates showing that the cats were ok. She managed to become friend of both cats even if one of them was super shy and scared at the beginning )). This made our holiday much more relaxing and we will definitely rebook Olivia’s service again.
Siobhán has been an absolute star! She was available at pretty short notice and looked after our cat beautifully. Playing with him and encouraging him to eat all his food inside and outside - even bringing brushes from her own home for some grooming which he’s never had from us before! She gave detailed updates on his eating, playing and adventures with other cats and sent lots of photos. We enjoyed reading her updates every morning and evening during our holiday! We would highly recommend Siobhán to anyone who needs their cat looking after. She is very professional, listened to all our instructions and did everything perfectly. We are very happy we found her! Many Thanks Siobhán!
We were so happy to have Aimee look after Dora again - Aimee sent us very regular updates and photos, she went above and beyond taking Dora out, giving her lots of exercise and introducing her to other dogs (with our permission) and Dora was very happy when we came home. Wouldn't hesitate to use Aimee again.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
