“Perfect service. Caroline is wonderful, my dog gets anxious and she calmed him immediately and they are now best friends. Will definitely use her services again, 5 star! X”


“This was Louisa's second time sitting our dog. She did such a great job. He's really comfortable with her and adores her already. She's prompt and great at keeping us updated on our dog's care.”


About: I grew up in a household full of dogs and cats of various ages, sizes and characters. There's no higher pleasure than connecting with a new fur-friend! I work remotely from home and have enough flexibility to accommodate the needs of your pet throughout the day. They will never be left alone unsupervised and will obtain as much attention, exercise, belly scratches, and walks as they require! Your house visits will be performed to the highest standard of pet care ensuring all agreed requirements are fulfilled. Photo and video evidence of interactions can be provided upon request. For boarding experience, I live on a quite residential street with plenty of green areas for a proper run and exercise. There's a spacious patio at the back of the house for plays and leisure.

“Alex is absolutely wonderful, inside and out! We cannot recommend her enough. We felt very comfortable having Alex dog sit our cockapoo in our home and received daily pictures and updates, which was very lovely to see our pooch so happy and loved whilst being away. We returned to a very happy dog and clean, warm home. She certainly went the extra mile for us. Thank you again so much Alex, we are certain Nellie will miss you and look forward to using your wonderful services again soon.”


“Rush was with my Leo for a day. She is literally the best sitter you could ask for your pet! She has a caring nature and she is so gentle and takes the time to understand your pets individual needs. She also has such an amazing personality. I recommend her to everyone.”


“Demo had a great time with Julian! He spent quality time playing and training him, and took him on some lovely walks. We really appreciated the regular photo and video updates—it was so reassuring to see Demo happy and well cared for. The house was exactly as we left it when we returned. We would definitely use Julian again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.”


“Emily was the perfect dog sitter who agreed to come to our home for a whole day and look after our young spaniel. She sent us lots of updates and pictures, and allowed us to feel relaxed while visiting friends outside of London. Will definitely ask Emily to help out again!”


“Ella has been simply amazing with my Olimpia! She pet sitted her for 2 weeks, looking after her with love and kind heart, while ensuring the right level of excercise for a Vizsla! She's 100% reliable and provide constant updates. So grateful I've met her!”


“Michelle is a kind, smiling and quiet person. My dog is pretty hard with people. Milky doesn't allow people who don't know to pet her. Michelle sent me a video of how Milky, after just one day, went close to her in search of physical contact and Michelle was incredibly professional with her gestures! I felt really comfortable with her in my house taking care of my fur baby. She was able to understand my dog’s needs and requests even though Milky’s body language is difficult to understand. My dog also ate most of her food while we were away! Michelle cooked for Milky and shared, after asking for permission, her lunch leftovers 💛. And I appreciated this sooo much because normally when we are away Milky won’t eat for days! Amazing experience!”


“Rosie looked after our very excitable, quite big dog for 4 days in our house and was wonderful. She followed all my many instructions, was great at communicating and we came home to a happy dog and tidy house. I would definitely book her again. Thanks Rosie 😊😊”


“Haroula is the best person possible I could think of to look after my two fur babies. She put me at complete ease and sent me lots of lovely updates when I was away. One of my dogs is quite a nervous character and does not trust new people easily and he has completely fallen in love with her. I think both my doggies had a better holiday with her than I did aboard! I cannot recommend her enough.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach to each pet's needs. I provide not only basic care but also specialized services like puppy and adult dog training, senior pet care, I build strong bonds with each pet, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, ensuring they receive timely meals, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or overnight care, I prioritize their well-being and happiness. When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, training, cuddles, ensuring they get plenty of attention. I also handle litter box cleaning, administering medication (if needed), and overnight care for added security. I respect the home, keeping it tidy and following any specific instructions to maintain the pet’s routine and comfort.

“Alice and Oli saved my summer holidays. I had booked a house sitter that cancelled on me at the last minute. Alice was quick to reply to my announcement on Rover. We spoke on the phone and then her and Oli came to my house to see my dog : a Hungarian Vizsla. Alice and Oli were very friendly and my dog warmed up yo them immediately. During my two weeks away, they sent me daily pictures and videos of our dog enjoying his daily walks. When we came back, they brought our dog back to us and i could tell he was very happy and very well looked after. I really recommend Alice and would use her services again.”

izabela r.
“I have known Izabela for many years and she often walked my German Shepherd. He was always (and somewhat uncharacteristically) delighted to see her and head off for a walk. We also walked with other dogs on occasion and I came to know her as a very competent and reliable walker. She has a natural affinity with dogs and is alert and responsive to their needs and quick to react to any situation. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for a responsible, kind and caring dog person.”

Sarah M.
“Sarah looked after our two Cavapoo dogs, Baxter and Rosie at our house when we went away to Republic of Ireland for 7 days and Glasgow, Scotland for a wedding for 4 days. We were in safe hands knowing she had previous dog experience! Our dogs were most thrilled being in her company. It was such a relief that they were both being looked after in their typical environment. We got WhatsApp updates daily including pictures and videos of their walks and relax time! Highly recommended! 🐾 🏆”
