I highly recommend Rebecca as a pet caregiver, she is my absolute go to when it comes to my precious dog blue. Not only is she amazing with animals but a lovely, respectful young lady. Rebecca has cared for my own dog blue for many years, taking him on exciting walks and looking after him in my own home when we are away. Rebecca has also spent a lot of time with my horses, even keeping on top of poo picking the fields, making up feeds and other duties around the yard. Her responsibility and deep love for animals shine through in her care. It's clear that she treats pets with kindness and attention, ensuring their well-being, happiness and all their needs are catered for. Her dedication and nurturing nature make her an outstanding choice for anyone in need of a reliable pet caregiver. Be assured your animals will fall in love with her!

About: I have a little pet care experience, watching over my friends cats Nelson and Dorito for a couple times. My family also had a German shepherd I used to look after. Fury friends always make me smile whenever I see them on the walk, and I dream about the day we’re going to welcome a dog to our home as well. I’m currently taking some time off work, so available most of the time during week and weekends as well, so gladly spend some quality time looking after your loved ones. I don’t have any pets, but your dog is going to be very loved by my family who adore pets as much as I do, if you need an over night stay.

I don’t really use this app because Lucy looks after my cavalier King Charles when I’m away. She absolutely adores dogs and my fluffy bear is always happy when she comes back to us but is also very upset to leave Lucy. She’s decided to take this job on because she has more free time now and has a passion for it. I wouldn’t want anyone else but her to take care of my dog when I’m away.

About: Hi, I’m Liam, a passionate and experienced pet carer with a lifetime of love for animals! Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. My mum was a well-respected dog trainer and cattery owner, and I spent years assisting with her business, caring for pets of all ages and personalities. She even showed dogs at Crufts, so I’ve learned from the best when it comes to understanding and catering to different breeds. I currently share my home with Willow, my 13-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, so I have a soft spot for senior pets and understand the extra care and patience they need. Whether your pet is a lively pup needing a good run or a senior companion who enjoys a slow stroll and plenty of affection, I tailor my care to their unique needs. With an Enhanced DBS check for added peace of mind and a flexible schedule due to my part-time work in sports, I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at times that suit you. I’m a fun-loving and reliable person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry friend and provide them with the best care possible. Feel free to get in touch—I can’t wait to help! I’m currently working part-time alongside studying for my Masters degree. I’m available weekdays until 2:30pm and have full availability on weekends to look after your pets! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. While I can’t accommodate pets in my own home due to my senior dog’s needs, I ensure they receive the best care in their own familiar environment.     •    A Trusted & Experienced Carer – With a lifetime of experience handling dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, I understand how to provide gentle, patient, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs.     •    Security & Reliability – As an Enhanced DBS-checked professional, you can trust me to respect your home, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure your pet stays safe at all times.     •    A Routine They Know & Love – I aim to minimise disruption by keeping to your pet’s usual schedule, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, playtime, or medication routines.     •    Respect for Your Home – I treat every home with the utmost respect, ensuring everything is left just as I found it, and providing regular updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away.     •    Tailored Care for All Pets – Whether it’s an energetic pup needing long walks, a nervous rescue dog needing reassurance, or a senior pet requiring extra patience and care, I adjust my approach to suit their individual needs. I believe in building trust not just with pets, but with their owners too. You’ll always receive updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend—feel free to get in touch!

Hello, Emma would be a great pick to choose for caring for your pets. As someone that is very close to Emma, I know that she has always loved animals ever since been little. She is always watching things that involve animals, whether it's dogs, cats or even big cats she just loves animals. She always walks both of my dogs for me as I am working full time, I have two Shih Tzu Bichon that she loves spending time with and they love it just as much. I really think Emma would suit the role very much and you wouldn't look any further.

Aiga has over 10 years of experience with cats and time to time taking care of friend’s dogs. She grown up with cat Nika. She is known for her punctuality and reliability. I could guarantee clients could consistently praise her for her dependability and trustworthiness. Aiga's love for animals is evident in her interactions. She is patient and gentle, making even the most anxious pets feel comfortable. Also she took excellent care of my 2 cats. She was with me when my cat was in labour. She helped me and take care of everything while I was at work. I knew my pets is in good hands. I felt completely at ease knowing she is there for my pets. Aiga provided detailed updates with photos, ensuring I was always informed about my pet’s well-being. She listens carefully to instructions and follows them meticulously. I highly recommended her for pet care due to her extensive experience, knowledge, reliability, compassion, and excellent communication skills. Her positivness and dedication to pet well-being make her an outstanding choice for anyone in need of a trustworthy pet caretaker.

Mike is a very caring and responsible person for looking after dogs. He has given a wonderful life to Lucy the retired racer and he also volunteers regularly at the retired greyhound shelter in Sheffield where he has become a trusted colleague there. He is very confident with dogs and will always put safety first making sure dogs are comfortable with each other on walks etc. He also knows some great walks in and around Sheffield to take your pooch on an adventure! 🐶

Carol has looked after both my dogs for me over the last couple of years both Betty and Teddy adore her and they get so excited when they see her. There’s not many people I would trust my babies with she is such a genuine lovely lady who has a very special connection with most animals I feel very lucky to have her to take care of my babies. She has taken care of them both at her home and has stayed in my home on occasions. She also pops in as she has a key to my home and feed them and take them on little walks if needed.

About: I have speciality in anxious dogs and how to support them. My own dog has fear aggressive tendencies from his previous owners as he is a rescue dog. Ive been fortunate to learn about how I can best support his needs to ensure he feels calm and safe. I’ve looked after family dogs, 4 of them overnight regularly. Making sure all 4 dogs have everything they need can be a challenge but it is very rewarding and lovely to be around all their individual personalities. I’ve currently just graduated from uni so I’m pretty available over weekdays at the moment. I’m looking for more weekday opportunities. Earlier in the day works better for me. In my own home I care for my 2 dogs. Both of them are border collies which require lots of walks and runs to exercise their high level energy. I prioritise making sure they have all their needs, including hugs 🥰
