House Sitting Aylesham

“Yu is amazing with our anxious dog . He has very bad separation anxiety but Yu seems able to keep him calm and reassured. Yu has even managed to take him for some walks. He will not usually walk with anyone else apart from me and my husband,so it's a real breakthrough. Thank you Yu !”

“Beau looked after our very lively and nervous Vizsla while we were away for a couple of nights having looked after him on a few occasions for a couple of hours at a time and getting to know him. Beau is confident with, and clearly loves dogs and quickly developed a great relationship with ours taking very good care of him and of our house while we were away. Beau followed all our instructions nothing being too much trouble. Everything went well and we will definitely be asking Beau again to look after our dog.”

About: Hello there I’m Nicola, a caring and highly experienced dog walker/ sitter serving Canterbury and surrounding villages. I only look after solo pets and those from the same household. My 'speciality' is reassuring nervous dogs (as well as anxious owners!) I can be flexibly with my availability; whether you need regular weekday walks or occasional pet services. I work fully remotely so make a great daytime companion (I am a part-time researcher/ advocate for refugee rights). If you require a pet service not explicit on my profile do get in touch, I am always open to new ideas and learning new skills. I have had rescue dogs throughout my life, including "failed" police dogs and elderly dogs. Previously, I fostered Romanian rescue dogs, ahead of helping them find their forever homes. I have cared for puppies, elderly pets and those with mobility and/ or health considerations. I already have some regular dog walking Clients but have recently gained capacity to take on more work (I am new to Rover). I am now also available for pet sitting whether at my home or yours. I have an enclosed garden, and my home is located a short distance from public footpaths and fields. After saying goodbye to my beloved fur-son last year I do not currently have pets myself (still too bereft!) I have a primary school aged child who is very used to dogs of all ages and sizes (but this would need to be considered ahead of overnight stays my home). I have 25+ years' experience caring for my own/ other people's pets, including in their own homes. As well as previously fostering Romanian rescue dogs, I have cared for puppies, elderly pets and those with health considerations. I am also highly experienced in working with vulnerable people. I hold an enhanced DBS check and my own insurance.

About: I have always been around dogs, I grew up with many. My family would always dog-sit for friends and family. I wanted to study zoology at university but due to personal issues I no longer will be able to, so I am trying to surround myself with animals! I am not in the right situation to have my own dog, so I would love to be around them and also help out owners! My priority is ensuring the dog is happy. I have just finished my A levels and only work Friday and Saturday evenings. I am hoping to get into a part time job. This means that I would still have plenty of time to go and see my furry friends! I am easy and can change my schedule to fit the dogs needs. I have a fully gated garden, we have a door that separates upstairs and downstairs ( for dogs that need to stay downstairs ). I am happy to stay in peoples homes and will cater to my own needs. If allowed, I will get lots of treats for the dogs and a new toy for new customers. I absolutely love walking and can cater my walks to your dogs needs. Living by the beach has its perks!

“Kayleigh was a great dog sitter for my three hounds. She was punctual, caring and sent regular updates to keep me informed. She had a natural affinity for the dogs and they seemed very relaxed with her. She had no problem with giving medications. I’d gladly book Kayleigh again.”

“Natalia came to look after my two little fluff balls. Natalia kept us updated through out and sent pictures of Molly and Finbar to let me know how they were doing. They loved having her look after them. Would definitely use Natalia again. Thank you Natalia!”

“Olga and her daughter looked after our senior doggie for over week - we were of course quite nervous to leave him for that long but they kept reassuring us and sending us pictures and videos. Would recommend and will definitely re-book! Thank you both”

About: I’m a calm, reliable, and patient dog walker who builds trust quickly with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. My priority is always to make every walk safe, relaxed, and tailored to each dog’s personality, energy levels, and individual needs. With four years of experience caring for and walking dogs, I particularly enjoy taking them out into nature. I prefer longer, enriching countryside and woodland walks where dogs can freely explore, sniff, and burn off energy in a stimulating natural environment. I often forage for mushrooms along the way, which makes each walk feel like a proper outdoor adventure. I’ll also often take photos during our walks so you can see what we’ve been up to! I’ve recently started my own business that gives me flexibility with how I structure my day and week. Much of my work naturally involves spending time outdoors and walking in nature, so incorporating dog walking into my routine feels like a perfect fit. Rather than walking alone, I can provide dogs with exercise, stimulation, and companionship while I’m already out exploring local countryside and green spaces. It allows me to combine productivity, wellbeing, and a genuine love of dogs into my daily routine. I would treat every pet as if they were my own, a member of the family. I would make sure they feel safe comfortable and well cared for while keeping to their usual routine and individual needs. Whether in my home or the owner’s home they would receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection and a high standard of care. I would also provideupdates so owners have peace of mind while their pet is with me.

About: I’ve taken care of my 2 shih Tzus for around 4 years taking on the responsibility once I was more grown up , they’re our family dogs and 3 years ago we welcomed 2 labradors into the household! And between me and my sisters we learned everything from looking after puppies where we trained them to use outdoor for toilet , small tricks such as sit , wait , stay , paw and to the early rebellious youngster stages until up to now where they’re fairly trained go on daily walks and exercise and a nightly routine to settle down for bed. I’m currently working part time and will have plenty of time available to stay/or walk your adoring pets with the love they need and deserve so please any questions about anything please feel free to ask! I have a closed off back garden and 2 younger pups that love to play once they sniff around and 2 older dogs who like to sunbathe and relax and can be separated to whoever is suitable or both :)

“Emily has been wonderful, staying in our house and looking after Angus while we were away for 10 days. We received regular updates of their time together, hanging out, playing and on a variety of different walks. Angus has LOVED their time together and that they both looked so happy made us feel really at ease. Emily looked after our house perfectly and we will definitely ask her to have Angus again when we next go away.”

About: Hi and Thanks so much for viewing my profile. ☺️ I’m Sangeeta (G as in Guitar). I’m a full-time creative and boarder. I work from home in and I absolutely adore animals of all kinds. Prior to lockdown, I lived and worked in New York City for many years, transferring back to be close to family in London to during the pandemic. I’ve had three dogs & three cats since childhood, learning a lot from a very young age to become a very experienced talker, walker, carer & trainer of both cats & dogs. So many people have noted over the years how I’m very intuitive with their pets. Turns out, to my surprise, I am. Though I haven’t yet perfected the art of animal communication, it helps me appreciate first-hand, reach pet/s unique personality and traits. (They decide whether to communicate). Most often I host pets from one family at a time and take great care to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and at home with me; making space so they can spread out as well as snuggle up close beside me. Typically care includes, feeding, walking, bathing and giving medication, as well as extra snacks and dedicated playtime. I lost my little songwriting partner and Boycat Kai in 2023. He was Maine Coon rescue, who climbed into my arms at just 8 months old and flew 1st class with me back to the UK. We lived a wonderful life travelling the world, making music and “mischief” until his peaceful transition, 17 years later. So I hope it goes without saying - caring for animals brings me a lot of joy. I really do treat them as one of my own. From visiting friends/family to creative meetings or even a short trip, they’re always welcome to join me (if appropriate) and I am fully insured to care for them. And since there’s ample room here to ensure dedicated spaces, I’m able to host pets from more than one family too. Especially those who’ve met beforehand and already know each other - they have the best time together. New clients are always welcome so please feel free to reach out and schedule a meet and greet anytime. I also recommend booking a short stay at first. This way your pet/s and I will have time to become acquainted and helps to ensure they’re comfy with longer stays. I sincerely welcome the opportunity to meet you as well as answer any questions and perhaps at some point welcome your VIP as my guest. (Very Important Pet/s). Sangeeta ⭐️🙏🏼🐶😻 Please note: Since I have bookings over the holidays (Late Nov-Early Jan), I tend to take some time for me Mid Sept-Early Nov). I’m always flexible however. Also, Rover commission applies both ways so please don’t be put off. Additional Info: Our schedule during their stay is organised around their comfort and well-being as the priority. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility. I’m always open to a meet and greet beforehand or a “practice” stay. It matters to me your pet feels at home with me, just as I treat as my very own. I am happy to accept more than one but they’ll most likely be my only fur guest during their stay, unless they are from the same household or already know each other. I like to be able to give them my full attention and have free rein in my home. If you do book an extended stay, they can travel and stay overnight there with me too. Whatever the case, I’ll always check with you beforehand, anyway. ☺️ I’m very vigilant - animal safety comes first. I have a fenced garden and live in a bungalow with plenty of space for safety, comfort and quiet. If they are ok to be left at home alone whilst I pop out, rest assured I’ll be keeping an eye on them over WiFi. I love sharing updates and happy moments, so you’ll have plenty of photos and videos each day and throughout their stay, or as you prefer. Also, do let me know if im over-sharing, 😂

About: I have helped take care of friends cats and dogs for years, alongside taking dogs out for daily walks while at university.

I currently work full time however work from home some days in which I would be available for all services as well as being available evenings and weekends. I will follow any rules for your pet that you wish and ensure that they are only taken to safe areas. I am happy to help with any care other than walking and sitting that may be needed also.

About: I Just Want to Hangout with Your Pet! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’m currently full time at home! My husband works from home and my children now attend school full time. I have so much spare time and would absolutely love to start caring for pets!

I ensure he gets plenty of fun walks having fun in the mud! I understand how to deal with behavioural issues with dogs. I’ve always had dogs and been around dogs since my childhood. I can confidently deal with their meals and toileting. Trained all my pet dogs. Although I haven’t had cats as a pet. My sister and mum owns a cat.
