House Sitting Balsham

“Rhian looked after our pup Remco and our cat Mocha during our wedding. We are soooo incredibly grateful. Rhian is such a lovely person and helped to keep our dog calm in a very busy environment and made sure he was ready and smart for photos (thank you ☺️). She has such a wonderful way with animals and cares so much. She was super respectful of our home overnight too. Thank you Rhian, it was so great not to have to worry at all!”

About: Hey! I am a 21 year old student veterinary nurse, completing my apprenticeship at a local practice. I have been dog walking and sitting for people locally for around 5 years, caring for them before or after work. I studied A levels in Animal Management and have worked since then at a doggy day care centre caring for over 20 dogs at once, whilst also at a farm. I also have two cheeky terriers. Therefore, I am used to a lot of mischief! I also own a lovely cat and have done numerous cat sittings too, staying at the clients house :) it’s fair to say, my life revolves around these four legged creatures- including rabbits and guinea pigs too! I am working full time at the moment, however I work both early and late shifts. Therefore I am happy to visit/ walk your pet before work, or if I’m on a late shift; in the evening afterwards. I am also available some weekends to stay over if needed!:) I currently am not looking after animals in my house due to my naughty terriers being enough to handle by themselves! They aren’t the biggest fan of new friends! However, I am more than happy to visit or stay at your house when needed!

“Indrė looked after my German Shepherd x collie Rocky for 2 nights and did an absolutely incredible job. Her communication is excellent and she stuck to the schedule and routine provided really thoroughly which is exactly what he needs; I felt really confident that Rocky was in good hands and came home to a happy dog! Indrė is extremely trustworthy and lovely and I will definitely be asking her to come back!”

“Eli was fantastic. Summer took to her very quickly (which is very rare). Summer was having a hard time with the original schedule we had set up so Eli quickly adapted the timings and even stayed the night because my pup was having a hard time alone overnight. I will be using her in the future as long as she is available.”

About: I grew up with a dog in the family and enjoyed taking care and spending time with dogs ever since. I have experience looking after dogs with different personalities and needs, and I always treat them as my own. I also have a valid DBS certificate for extra peace of mind. I work from home so have some time to spend with pets. I can walk the dogs, play with them and feed them according to the schedule desired I live in a house and have a small garden where dogs can spend their time. Plenty of parks to take them for a walk around too

“We were very nervous about leaving our dog Nyx for the first time but after meeting Oliver and seeing how he interacted with her we knew she would be okay with him. Oliver kept us up to date the whole weekend and sent lots of pictures and videos of them playing together. 10/10 would contract Oliver again.”

“Paul was absolutely fantastic from start to finish of our doggie and house sit. I think Geoffrey loved having him there . He gave us daily updates and sent some lovely pictures of Geoffrey. He left our house very clean and tidy . We would highly recommend Paul.”

About: Hi! I’m a genuine dog lover who enjoys spending time with pups of all sizes. While new to formal dog sitting, I’ve cared for dogs before and understand how important it is to keep them safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, and stick to your dog’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I am a working professional who has 2 WFH days per week. My weekends are either crammed with walks and mini adventures or resting away the Sunday roast! So I can match all energy levels. Either way would love the company. Can send regular updates and will always confirm with you your companions routines and needs to ensure the dog sitting feels to them like a little holiday! I have a ground floor flat with a private garden set back from the main road in a quiet little cluster of properties. Happy to take companions on a walk locally or further afield or around their own stomping ground.

About: Calm, patient, and reliable. Experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and nervous dogs, providing loving, attentive care while maintaining their routine and building trust for all. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule carefully so every visit gets plenty of time, attention, play, feeding, and lots of affection without being rushed. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and plenty of affection. I keep homes tidy and secure, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels relaxed, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

“Vivienne was great at looking after our Dalmatian in our home while we were away for the day, she is very reliable and provided updates and photos throughout the day, would happily use her services again, thanks Vivienne! ☺️”

A lifelong owner with extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, amphibians and aquariums with a proven ability to manage complex behaviors, including, grooming, exercise, dietary needs and medical care. I applied advanced positive reinforcement techniques to raise and fully train a Labrador and family (Cookie who died 17) companion to a high level of obedience and socialization. Alongside many other beloved babies over these many years. There would be a tailored approach to meet the unique needs of each of your cherished pets , much like adjusting walking or sitting styles for different breeds and temperaments, physically active and capable of managing high-energy breeds in all weather. . DBS-checked, holder of a clean driving license (currently without a car), and deeply committed to the safety, exercise, and happiness of animals in my care. After 17 years working in education, of which I left to travel the world. I now do some part time retail work in Cambridge city center. This is a 0 hour basis and open to negotiation when I work. Which of course means I am available 7 days a week. Looking after your four legged friends is about fitting into your routine and theirs. I live next to the River Cam, which makes me nearby to all the local commons for your furry friends to run and have space. I also have a fenced and gated back garden for security and welfare of our fur babies. I do also own a cage should that be the way your pet is accustomed, nevertheless everything else would have to be provided by you and the way your babies are cared for is customized by how you/they like it. Unless emergency care/ last minute, I recommend/prefer a meet and greet before any decisions are made, to see how we fit.

About: I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who truly loves animals. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with different personalities and needs, including energetic pets, shy animals, and senior pets who need extra attention and comfort. What makes me different is the love and attention I give to every pet. I understand that pets are family members, so I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I can help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, basic care, and maintaining the pet’s routine. I am also attentive to details, organized, and reliable, which helps pets feel calm and secure in my care. Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time to walks, visits, and overnight stays when needed. On a daily basis, I am available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on prior arrangements. I make sure to plan my day so I can fully focus on each pet without rushing, giving them the attention and care they need. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep the environment clean and secure, and make sure pets feel calm and comfortable at all times. I supervise them carefully, provide fresh water, food, walks, and attention, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I treat every dog like family, the same way I care for my own beagle who has been with me for 4 wonderful years. Back in my hometown, I also grew up with a Labrador who is now a 14-year-old senior, so I understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention older dogs need. Alongside that, as a family we have run pet boarding with different breeds like retrievers and Shih Tzus, which gave us first-hand experience in handling dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether it’s playful puppies or calm seniors, we adapt to their needs—long walks, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I am attentive, responsible, and genuinely love dogs. You can trust that your pet will feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Pet care is part of our daily routine. Both my wife and I work from home, so we take turns looking after the dogs throughout the day. This means they get regular walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and plenty of companionship, so your pet is never left alone. We’re flexible with hours and can provide full-time or part-time care depending on your needs. In our home, pets are treated like family. We ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with supervised playtime and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we respect their routine and follow all instructions carefully feeding, walks, medications, or any special care,so your dog feels secure and stress-free.

About: I have a wealth of experience with both small and large dog breeds. Friends and family have relied on me to care for everything from dogs to hamsters and even to chickens. My husband Jonny and I have a secure back garden, and will provide a home away from home for your dog. We’ve got plenty of space for crates if neccesary and a large car to drive to lovely areas for dog walks. We love taking dogs on long walks, and stimulating them mentally by allowing them to explore a new area and all the new interesting smells. We live in an area with several large parks nearby, with lots of opportunities for the dogs to run around and socialise with other local dogs. In the evenings, I like to allow the dogs to chill and maybe even have a cuddle on the sofa! I go on lots of walks for fresh air, and finding new areas to explore with lots of open, green spaces is very important to me. We will make sure to provide a warm and homely environment for you pet- with plenty of photo and video updates throughout the day. We always arrange for meet and greets beforehand to allow the pets to get to know us, as well as familiarise themselves with the environment they will stay in.

About: Hi! I’m a self-employed dog lover who works from home Monday–Friday, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks and, of course, cuddles! I live in a spacious two-bedroom flat with my own dog, Vinny. While we don’t have a private garden, we do have a communal outdoor space for toilet breaks, and I make sure Vinny gets two 45-minute walks every day. We’re lucky to have plenty of lovely options nearby, from open fields and woodland to peaceful walks through the village. At home, life is nice and relaxed. Vinny is usually snoozing on the sofa, or happily working away at a frozen Kong or LickiMat. I’m happy to keep your dog’s usual routine as much as possible, whether they’re full of energy and love a good walk or are more of a professional sofa-snoozer! I’ve always loved animals and have had pets throughout my life, including dogs, rabbits and ducks. We’d love to have a second dog of our own one day, but in the meantime I’d love to welcome some local four-legged friends into our home and give them a safe, comfortable and loving place to stay. Your dog will be treated like one of the family, with plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I’d love to meet you and your pup and see if we’re a good match!

“Hannah stayed with our dog and cat for a week and was great! Asked great questions during our meet and greet, clear communications, regular updates, and the house was left in excellent order when we returned. Pets were happy and seemed well cared-for ... we'd be glad to have Hannah back again!”

“Annie pet sat in our home for 8 nights looking after our dog. Annie was the ultimate professional, very communicative and responsive throughout the process and kept us regularly updated with pictures. We returned home to an immaculately clean house and a very well looked after pup. We would highly recommend Annie and we would certainly make use of her pet sitting services in the future.”
