7. Gena T.
“We have been entrusting Gena with the care of our two beloved dogs whenever we go on holiday, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Gena is the only person we trust to look after our pets, and they absolutely adore her. She goes above and beyond to ensure our dogs feel comfortable and loved while we’re away. Gena is incredibly attentive, always making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles. She keeps us updated with regular photos and messages, so we always know our furry friends are in good hands. One of the things we appreciate most about Gena is her reliability. She is punctual, responsible, and takes her commitment to pet sitting very seriously. Her attention to detail is impressive, from remembering their feeding schedules to noticing the little quirks and preferences of each dog. Our dogs are always excited to see Gena, which speaks volumes about the bond she has formed with them. Knowing that they are happy and well-cared for allows us to enjoy our holidays without any worries. We highly recommend Gena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. She truly treats our pets like her own, and we are so grateful for her exceptional service.”


8. Lauren P.
“Lauren is trustworthy and reliable, she goes above and beyond for my three German Shepherds (one of which is extremely anxious) and they absolutely adore her. They have such a beautiful close bond and just by watching the way she interacts with them it is clear to see that it is more than just a job to her, it is her love and kindness she shows towards them enabling them to put their trust in her. She has incredible patience and extensive knowledge in canine care. I highly recommend Lauren to be a carer and walker for anyone’s fur babies as she will always ensure they are happy and safe on their little adventures!”

About: I owned a total of 10 dogs in my life so far, and even if at the moment I can't keep any, I would love to spend as much time as possible with them! Volunteering with PDSA and soon to start a Dog Grooming course in college at Enfield. Next dream is to become Vet Nurse, road is long but I will get there eventually! I'm working part time, Monday all day, Thursday and Friday from 8am to 2pm. Not available on Wednesday as I'm at college studying to become a Dog Groomer I live in a small flat, but I'm convinced pets need love more than space - and they're more adaptable than us if they feel safe...and have a full belly! More than happy to sit at owner's place, I live next to very well connected transport links and I cycle a lot, so can reach East London without fuss

11. Chloe G.
“I have no hesitation to recommend Chloe as a pet-sitter/dog walker. My dog loves spending time with her and is always very excited to see her. Chloe is responsible, experienced, and understands the needs of individual pets. Coby is getting a little grey around the muzzle now and although loves to play still, and enjoys a good walk, he also loves to sleep, mainly curled up with Chloe and snoring happily. Chloe genuinely loves dogs, and animals in general. She is kind, caring and very happy to meet the needs of both pets and owners wherever possible. Coby has epilepsy and takes half an anti-seizure tablet twice daily. I completely trust Chloe to administer this and ensure he is safe and healthy. She also takes great photos, so will keep you updated of your pets adventures!”

16. Hannah K.
“To describe Hannah’s love for animals in particular dogs would take me an absolute age, so I will make this descriptive yet short. Having grown up around family dogs such as teddy, Barney and buster, she has always been such a loving and responsible person when it comes to the well fare and caring of dogs. A keen Walker, and play friend, she is always in the mood to keep the dogs occupied that she has encountered and been left responsible for. Our current family dog buddy is her best friend, inseparable at the best of times, and there is never a moment that goes by that he is not following Hannah around the house. There is no one better suited than hannah to look after 4- legged friends.”

About: Growing up i was surrounded by dogs, there have always been 2 dogs in the house for as long as I can remember, for about 8 years and a half with the help of my mother, I've nurtured my French bulldog who has a deformed lip and nose which automatically made him the runt of his litter, recently I have adopted another frenchie that was kept in very bad conditions making her nipples bleed and took 4 baths to fully clean her. However these 2 livly dogs love to go outside and play in the dog park that is around the corner. Before my frenchies i had a labrador, bishon frise, Yorkshire terrier, and others. I am in my last year of college, and because of my course I am in school 3 days a week, Mondays and theusdays I'm in college till 4 pm whereas Tuesdays I'm in till 12pm, therefore I have a lot of free time to work at home with dogs I have 2 dogs at home, and 8 year old frenchie who is castrated and a 3 year old frenchie who isn't neutered yet, I have a back garden that is fenced so they can play safely.
