“We met Caroline before we booked a house sit for Fudge! He took to her straight away and she has made us feel so much more at ease leaving Fudge for a few days! Will defo be using her again”



“I cannot recommend Ana highly enough! She was immensely helpful with our three cats when we were away. We got daily updates and photos and came back to healthy and happy cats :)”


“Marina looked after my 3 cats for just over a week (2 visits a day). She kept me up to date with photos every day from which I could tell the cats were totally relaxed with her. My two extremely shy rescue cats came out of hiding to see her after a day which showed me how comfortable they were with her and the third cat obviously enjoyed her visits! I would not hesitate to recommend Marina and would always ask her to look after my cats in the future.”


“Lucia dropped in to look after our British Shorthair over 6 days and on short notice! She kept us updated throughout, and it was clear they both enjoyed spending time together – our cat warmed to her straight away. Lucia is passionate about what she does, and we’d happily recommend her to others if she’s available. We’ll definitely use her services again. Thanks, Lucia! 😊”

About: Hello! I am Vivien. I lived with my dog, Leopard, during my teenage years and truly enjoyed spending time with him. He was strong and healthy and lived a happy life until the age of 15. Since then, I’ve always hoped to have another dog, but due to personal circumstances, I haven’t been able to own a pet with my family. That’s why I’m excited about the opportunity to be a pet sitter — to care for dogs when their owners are in need. I work in the medical field and have a caring, compassionate personality, which helps me look after both people and animals with patience and attentiveness. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to know more about me! Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I make time for it around my work schedule. I currently have a flexible routine, which allows me to offer morning, evening, and even some daytime visits or walks. On weekends, I’m usually available for longer stays or more frequent check-ins. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or giving a bit of extra attention, I treat each pet like part of the family and always make their comfort and well-being a priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I always aim to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules and walk times to any special needs or habits they may have. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also keep the space tidy, and I’m respectful of the home environment. Communication is important to me, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind.

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.

About: I've grown up with and been around animals my whole life - Cats, dogs, bunnies etc. Animals really do make life better! I treat all pets as if they were my own and do everything in my power to make them happy and comfortable. I've worked at a doggy day care centre so I've engaged with and walked hundreds of dogs of all shapes and sizes and have met countless of their owners also! I have also volunteered at ZSL London Zoo for 6+ years with the Primate and Predators teams, working with and helping to look after monkeys, tigers, lions, otters and more! I'm currently available most days of the week apart from Wednesdays (late evenings are possible), so I'm very flexible at the moment whilst looking for more work. Happy to do walks or drop-ins as early as needed and look after your dog(s) and pet(s) at your place also. At the owner's home, I'll make sure to ask for and learn everything that's required to provide the best care possible! Helping to maintain good routines and make them super comfortable as you're away/out and about.

About: Having grown up with lurchers and whippets since the age of 5, I am excited to find some waggie-tailed friends in London. I love the outdoors so can provide plenty of exercise and lots of cuddles. I have recent experience looking after all kinds of dogs including a Bearded Collie, Miniature Poodle as well as a Whippet and adored every one of them. The days I need to be in the office are flexible so I can adapt to when you need dog care - when working from home I can take regular breaks for walkies whenever needed. I live in a flat on the first floor - the building has a good sized area of grass which is fenced off from the main road. I am a 10 minute walk from Arnos Park which has large mown grass areas as well as a small area of wood. I am also a short, quiet tube journey to Trent Park which provides wide open spaces.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life - that being dogs, cats and bunnies. I treat all pets as if they were my own and do everything in my power to make them feel comfortable, happy and relaxed in my presence. I provide all the care and adventurous walks they could ask for, or when it’s time for cuddles! I’ve always been an animal lover and enthusiast - I absolutely love dogs and being outdoors, and as a very active person, why not tie in two things I love, right?! I've also been referred to as Dr.Doolittle! I genuinely believe every dog deserves time to do things they love. Hi, I'm Imogen. I'm a part time graphic designer based in Whetstone, North London. I'm available Monday to Friday but can accommodate weekends occasionally. I've always loved animals and have a special soft spot for dogs! I have often been referred to as Dr.Doolittle. I'm always outside as a very active person so rarely tire from a long walk/s! I'm genuinely at one of my happiest when I'm out in the park or the woods with a dog - just being in nature really. For high-energy dogs, I also would be more than happy to run with the dog if you’d like. I'm a regular runner and can take your dog out with me. This is a great way for them to burn off energy and get the stimulation they need and not to forgot low energy dogs - who doesn’t love a gentle stroll and cuddles?! I can cater to your dogs needs 🥰 I offer frequent toilet breaks, long walks or short frequent walks, group walks or solo, lots of cuddles and play time. 🐕 I also bring fresh water on all my walks and an unlimited supply of treats (if ok with your dog’s diet of course)! As an individual I’m very attentive and alert to keep a watchful eye - I also live in a fully fenced garden situated on a quiet road.

About: Having over 30 years experience of dogs including breeding Kennel Club registered puppies in my home and currently being a proud owner of 2 gorgeous Labradors, I decided to set up my own Dog Walking/Boarding/Daycare Business - Southgate Dog Walkers. I am passsionate about dogs and treat all animals in my care like my own. I have an abundance of parks near me so I vary my walks every day. All dogs are collected and dropped off and get a full hour walk from when we reach the park; not from when I collect your dog. Your dog will be returned home mud free, towel dried and fed if required. I am CRB Checked and Insured. Boarded dogs stay in my home with my 2 sociable Labradors (Cookie and Muffin), my cat Biscuit and the rest of my family including my two children who adore animals. It really is a home from home when your dog comes to stay with me. With the vast experience I have of my dogs whelping puppies and then managing the rearing of lots of litters and the early training that puppies require, my wealth of Canine knowledge really sets me apart. I am a true Animal lover and can provide references from lots of happy dogs and their owners.

I've worked with nervous and reactive dogs aswell as elderly dogs and puppies. I also have experience with training dogs for recall, obedience and trick training. I love all dogs no matter the size or breed! Dog walking and pet-sitting is my full time job so I can give all my focus and attention just on them! Weekend pet-sitting has limited availability. I'm more than happy to care for animals in their own homes or take them to the park. I have a cat at my house who is old and fragile so only small, calm dogs are allowed to come to mine.

Julia H.

“Julia did an amazing job looking after our rescue dogs. I would highly recommend her.”


Doris H.

“Doris gave excellent care for my French Bulldog, I would 100% recommend her doing drop in visits is fyou have to leave your fur child at home!”


izabela r.
“Isabela dog sat for me when needed but never over night. She would walk him down the road and feed him and would be with him until we returned. In those days she did not own her own dog as she does now. My question would be does she leave her own dog at home if dog walking? I would not be comfortable for her to walk my Labrador along with her own dog. I believe you should ask her what she intends to do if walking other dogs and what happens to her own dog if she does overnight dog sitting in dog owners' homes. I do not know how controlled her own dog is whilst out on a walk with her. I hope these remarks are kept confidential as they should be!”


Jack W.
“Jack has looked after our cats when we have been away on holidays over the few years, he is reliable, honest and very caring. Jack comes from an animal loving family, and has experience with dogs - our cats love his visits, we can see this from the photos and videos sent during each visit. Jack feeds the cats, plays with them and was even happy to deal with the litter trays. We are always reassured that the cats are in great hands when leaving them with Jack, and would highly recommend him for any pet care.”


Rosie C.
“Rosie looked after our Bearded Collie for a week. She was very diligent in feeding, providing daily medication and providing exercise. When we got back from holiday our house was spotless, our dog was very contented and we were delighted! I would recommend Rosie to anyone.”


Imogen L.
“Imogen is wonderful! Not only is she a genuine animal lover, but they love her too. Her calm, warm demeanour means that animals of all shapes and sizes seem to be drawn to her. Whether that’s cats following her and lying down in the street until she strokes their tummies, dogs bounding up to her in parks or even squirrels letting her get close to them or even - genuinely - jumping on her to say hi! She regularly solely looks after two dogs, sometimes together. Scout and Stan, a Cockapoo and a Cavapoo respectively, can often be handfuls for anyone else. However, Imogen is always first on the list because of her manner and demeanour, and how she blends exercise, play and cuddles to give them the best time possible. She is amazing at forming instant connections with pets and humans alike, and is an incredibly thoughtful and responsible person. She would be a brilliant person to look after your special little (or big!) guy/gal.”

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! 🐾 🏆”
