Both are dogs seemed very content with Chloe and she definitely gave them the care and attention they need. I would recommend Chloe to anyone. She stayed in our home to look after the dogs and everything was perfect when we arrived back. Thank you so much.”

About: I was a dog walker for 1 year with a company and have been a kennel hand for 2 years. I have experience with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. The kennel also has a cattery so I have plenty of cat experience too. I’m a dog walker and pet sitter, so I will wake up feed the animal and do any morning routines including walks then do my morning walks while coming back to check on the animal let them out etc. All evening I am free after my last dog walk and I am free weekends with enough notice. I am fully insured and dbs checked with plenty of experience so while I’m pet sitting in your home you can feel comfortable that I am trust worthy.

“What a great lady. Stacey came out to meet Willow a few days before sitting for us, and they instantly bonded. We hadnt used a dog sitter before, but she instantly put us at ease. On the day, she arrived early, and again Willow went straight to her, very happy to see her. Stacey took Willow on numerous walks throughout the day, and sent us loads of photos and updates throughout. We would not hesitate in recommending her for anyone, and will definately use her again the next time we need a sitter.”

About: I always wanted dogs growing up, and have often cared for friends’ pets when needed, and when I moved to Whiston I finally got the chance to have one full time - my ex-partner’s family dog needed to move, and we took him in. As we’re no longer together I don’t have him any more, and I would love to be able to give the care and attention to pets who need a home from home. I’m comfortable administering mediation (the dog mentioned took 4 different tablets, twice a day) and promise to always provide them with as many walks, playtime and treats as they want (treats within moderation obviously)! My work is hybrid so I’m able to be at home a lot, and I would never commit to taking in a pet if there was a chance I couldn’t be at home with them all the time. When working from home I can be flexible to ensure I can match your pets normal routine as closely as possible. They’ll also provide me with the perfect distraction to procrastinate! Although the back garden is unfenced, I would never leave your pet there unsupervised. I do have a fenced and gated front driveway. I would stick to your usual routine as closely as possible - pets are allowed wherever they are comfiest in my house, so they’d have full and complete roam of the house to make sure they found their most comfy spot! I’ll send photos and updates every day to let you know how they’re doing and what we’ve been up to for your peace of mind!

“Deborah and Ed were fantastic left our two fur babies in the knowledge that they would be well cared for came home to a clean house and two very happy doggies would recommend Deborah and Ed to any potential dog parents”

“Gypsy and Mark did a fantastic job looking after our two cats while we were away. We received regular photos and updates and felt confident throughout that our pets were in good hands. Would highly recommend and definitely book again. Thanks so much!”

About: DBS checked & full clean driving license!
Growing up with German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and Labradors, I’ve spent my life understanding the needs of larger breeds. Having recently moved from Ireland to the UK, I’m currently without a dog of my own, so I am eager to provide high-quality care and companionship to yours! My experience is extensive, including raising two rescue dogs and sitting for various breeds, from high-energy Collies to powerful Rottweilers. I am very comfortable with nervous temperaments and am fully capable of following strict medical routines if required.
Alongside doggies, I have extensive experience with cats & smaller animals too ~ no spiders though, sorry🙈
Daily Routine & Exercise
Currently, I work full time, but it won't stop me working my schedule around your needs! Happy to commute from your house if you need me for sits, very flexible overall despite my job commitments.
Afternoons / evenings, mornings I will be free too. I can provide a structured day with at 60-120 minute walks, or longer!, tailored to your dog’s fitness level—whether that’s a local stroll or a longer hike. I love getting out into woods & parks.
If you are looking for house sits, I am happy to change my schedule and commute to work from your home. Whatever works for you I'm sure I can accommodate your needs.
Home Environment & Safety
I have a shy indoor cat, so currently not taking home boardings. I am a car owner with a clean license, so I am always prepared for emergencies or urgent vet visits. Safety is my top priority; I stick to leash-only walks in public (off lead experienced too, if your pet prefers) and I can help with training too if needed.
Trust & Communication
I am "always on my phone" and love taking photos, so you can expect regular photo and video updates throughout the day. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your best friend is having a great time!

Home visits I have many reviews on Pawshake for this, I am dependable and always leave the premise safe & secure. I’m on time for visits & spend as much time as I can with said cat or dog!

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life from staffies to Yorkshire terriers and my current dogs are two boarder collies so if you have your dogs stay with us they won’t be short of walks 😊 I do currently work part time and finish work most days at 4pm and usually can swap my days off in the week so I can fit around you. I have a very long fenced garden with a grass area and a very cool house perfect for summer dogs are allowed on my sofa so they can get nice and comfy we have pleantly of toys to play with aswell if you have your dogs stop over with me I can separate them from mine overnight with mine upstairs or vice versa

“Megan took care of Bramble last minute as it was way too hot for her to come camping with me. She took wonderful care of her and kept me updated with messages and videos. Bramble was so well cared for. Highly recommend”

About: NHS Chemotherapy Nurse | 🌿 Cinnamon Trust Volunteer | Vegetarian🌱 | 🩵 Lifelong Animal Lover * 🐾 Experienced with rescue, elderly, reactive & medical-needs pets | 🏡 Trusted house & pet sitter with references. Hello, I’m Sammie, it’s lovely to meet you and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! If you ask the people who know me best what I’m most passionate about, the answer will always be the same…animals! For as long as I can remember, animals have been my greatest source of happiness, comfort and purpose. To me, they are family, and I believe every pet deserves to be treated with love, patience, kindness and respect. My experience🐾 I have been around animals all my life. I currently have four indoor rescue cats, all raised from kittens, and two dogs with very different needs. One of my dogs is elderly with arthritis, so I’m experienced in administering medication, adapting walks and monitoring his comfort. My other dog is reactive and anxious, giving me first-hand experience of building trust with nervous dogs through patience, routine and understanding. I’ve also cared for smaller pets including guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils. As the owner of four indoor cats, I’m especially mindful of keeping doors, windows and escape routes secure, understanding the extra vigilance indoor cats require. Trusted Pet & House Sitter🏡 I’m incredibly proud and grateful that colleagues regularly ask me to care for both their pets and their homes because they know they’ll be safe, loved and well looked after. On multiple occasions, I have pet and house sat for my colleague’s Bullmastiff, Tyga. By the end of his sits, Tyga had formed a wonderful bond with me and had settled beautifully with me in his home, and my colleague fed back that she was delighted with the care I provided for both Tyga and her home. I’m also booked to care for another colleague’s two rescue cats later this year, and references are available. Tailored Care for Every Pet🦮 Every pet is different, and I believe their care should reflect that. I never expect an animal to adapt to me, I adapt to them and their needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment and adventure or simply prefers quiet companionship and affection, I’ll adapt my care to suit their individual personality and routine. As your sitter, it is important for me to understand your pets habits, medical needs, favourite activities and anything else that helps them feel safe, relaxed and happy. Experienced and comfortable with the following: ✔ Medication administration ✔ Elderly pets ✔ Puppies & kittens ✔ Rescue animals ✔ Reactive & anxious dogs ✔ Multiple pets & different routines ✔ Monitoring health and wellbeing I’ll also familiarise myself with your preferred veterinary practice before every booking. 🌿 Cinnamon Trust I’m proud to volunteer with The Cinnamon Trust, supporting elderly and terminally ill people by helping care for the pets they love. It’s a role that reflects my passion for animal welfare and helping others. As a hobby, and whilst I am no professional, I thoroughly enjoy capturing pictures of animals and pets! If your pet is willing to pose (or not!), you are welcome to receive a few professional-looking photos alongside your regular updates! 📸🐾 Trusted home care🧺 My aim is to fit seamlessly into your home without disrupting it, treating it with exactly the same care and respect that I would my own. I’m a non-smoker, non-drinker, DBS checked, extremely clean, tidy and respectful. I’m also happy to water plants, collect post, put bins out and help with general household upkeep. Keeping You Updated and communication📞📷 I’ll happily send regular photos, videos and updates throughout your time away, giving you peace of mind that your pets are happy, settled and receiving lots of love and attention. I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience and dedication that I give my own, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’ll be safe, happy and genuinely cared for. I’m an NHS chemotherapy nurse working part-time, primarily on Mondays and Fridays from 8am to 6pm. Working part-time gives me the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive and personalised care around my shifts. I carefully manage my diary and only accept bookings when I know I can dedicate the time, care and attention your pet deserves. When caring for your pet, their routine becomes my priority. Whether that’s early morning walks, administering medication, feeding schedules, enrichment, playtime or simply providing companionship, I understand how important consistency is for animals and will always do my best to maintain their normal routine, helping them feel settled, happy and secure while you’re away. As every pet has different needs, I’m always happy to discuss my availability before confirming a booking. While I primarily work Mondays and Fridays, if your pet is comfortable being left for a few hours during those times, I’m more than happy to discuss this on an individual basis. Equally, if your pet requires more constant companionship, we can explore dates that better suit both their needs and my availability. Transparency is very important to me, and I’ll always be honest about my schedule so you can make the best decision for your pet with complete confidence. Weekends, bank holidays and school holidays are also open and free for me to book! Your pet’s safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my number one priority. Before every booking, I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so I can get to know you, your pets, their routines and any specific needs or preferences. As an NHS nurse, I’m DBS checked, organised, calm under pressure and experienced in recognising subtle changes in wellbeing. I’m comfortable caring for elderly pets, rescue animals, nervous or reactive dogs, administering medication and following detailed care instructions. I’ll familiarise myself with your preferred veterinary practice and emergency contacts before every stay, so I can respond quickly should anything unexpected arise. I treat every home with the utmost respect, leaving it exactly as I found it, and I’m happy to water plants, collect post, put bins out and help with general household upkeep while you’re away. My aim is to provide complete peace of mind, knowing both your beloved pets and your home are in safe, caring and trustworthy hands. Having four indoor rescue cats of my own, I’m acutely aware of the importance of keeping indoor cats safe within their home environment. I’m extremely conscientious about ensuring doors, windows and any other potential escape points are secure before entering or leaving the property. I understand that this level of vigilance provides invaluable peace of mind for owners, and it’s a standard of care I naturally practise every day with my own pets.

About: I have several years of hands‑on experience caring for small dogs and cats. I regularly look after my sister’s two chihuahuas — one high‑energy and one more sensitive — and have been caring for them for around three years while she travels. I’ve also grown up with dogs in the family, so I’m confident supporting different small‑dog personalities, from lively and playful to shy or routine‑focused. I offer a calm, steady presence and follow each pet’s needs closely to help them feel safe and settled. I am self-employed and live life at my own rhythm, which means I have the time and paced energy to be there for your pets throughout the day. My routine is flexible and calm, so I can offer steady company, walks and care whenever they need it. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most settled. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep their space clean and calm, and make sure they have steady company, walks and attention. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with the same care I give your pets.

About: I have been around all different kinds of dogs since I was young. I’m an active person and I love walking. Your dog could join me on my walk. I have a lot of time on my hands.

About: My dog is a rescue from Romania and she's terrified of everything. Me and Nala have came a long way from when I first got her. She's an angel now. I do work from 2 - 6:30 Monday to Friday however I do have a lot of free time and don't mind taking time off to look after your pup! I love taking care of dogs and pups. I have a fenced garden, I have a dog bed and treats. Any type of information helps and I will do my best to provide.

About: I grew up with dogs in our household and for the last 20 years I've had my own dogs but lost my last one, Sanza, a Toy Poodle, in June 2025. I dog sit two Dachshund sisters aged 15 regularly and enjoy it very much. I love dogs and would treat your dogs as if they were my own. Your pet's comfort, happiness and safety is my priority. I have experience of giving medication via injection as my dog was diabetic and had to have insulin injections twice a day as well as oral medication. I also have experience of looking after senior dogs as I have cared for dogs who are 14 and 15 years old. I am available to look after your dogs in my home or at your home so they have as little disruption to their routine as possible. I am retired so I'am at home all day so can look after your pets whenever you need me. I'm very flexible and can adjust my schedule to fit in around your needs. I have an enclosed garden which is fully fenced/ brick wall. The garden is very secure. I live in a semi detached bungalow so there are no stairs to climb. I have lots of toys for your dogs to play with. I am available to look after them in their own home or at my home. I am retired so I am around all the time to look after your dogs. I prefer to look after small dogs but will look after medium sized dogs as long as they walk well on the lead as I walk with a crutch so can't manage to walk large dogs who pull or lunge too strongly when they react to other dogs. I do not look after large dogs for safety reasons.

“Just to say thank you Oliver for what you’ve done today. Much appreciated. ??????”
