Pet Sitting in Bassetlaw

“Diane has been walking my dogs for a few years now, they absolutely love her. She is always on time and has never let me down, They also stay with her while I’m away, and always come home happy and healthy. Diane is a very lovely person and you can just tell she really loves animals.”

About: With a lifelong passion for animals and five years of cherished companionship with my own dog, I am well-versed in the joys and responsibilities that come with pet ownership. As an avid horse rider and a trusted caretaker for my neighbours' dogs, I have honed my skills in providing tender love and attentive care to our furry friends. My unique work schedule, consisting of four days on and four days off, grants me the flexibility to be fully available during my four-day sets to devote myself entirely to your beloved pets. I understand the importance of flexibility when it comes to pet care, and I am more than happy to discuss scheduling arrangements to accommodate your needs and preferences. When your pets stay with me, they will have access to a haven of fun and exploration. My fully fenced, decently sized garden offers the ideal space for playful romps and energetic frolics, ensuring they get the exercise they need. Additionally, a large private field nearby provides ample room for adventure and enjoyable walks. Surrounded by a plethora of dog-friendly walking routes in my area, your furry companions will experience a variety of scents, sights, and experiences, keeping their tails wagging and their minds stimulated.

“Shelby is great with my 2 dogs, they look forward to walks with her and she is great at listening and understanding the dogs needs”

About: Have owned a dog all my life, and currently have dachshunds. Very experienced with small-medium breeds, but keen to gain experience with larger dogs :) Currently working part time from home so have a lot of availability. Can offer home visits, walks and overnight boards at your home or mine :) I have a secure garden with high walls and also have 4 cheeky dachshunds to keep your dogs company! If it’s a home visit you are wanting then I will follow your rules and look after your fur baby just as you want me to :)

“Athene was great! Would highly recommend. She was very dependable and reliable. Athene also noticed a skin rash on Ivy which was very observant of her and offered to take her to the vet which is really going above and beyond. We loved the pictures she took and we will certainly use her again without hesitation!”

About: I have looked after dogs as part of my family since I was young. I love having my dogs around me and walking with them. I have experience of dealing with any age of dog from puppies and training to older senior dogs and the things they can get up to. I work full time but if I'm dog boarding I will be at home to spend my time with the dogs. I am available most weekends from Friday and bank holidays .. Other days by arrangement. I live on a farm with plenty of exercise space, walks and a river if they are partial to water. Dogs will be supervised by me while staying. I am able to provide a crate if your dog is used to using one I work full time Monday to Friday so I am available at weekends to look after dogs and weekdays on arrangement. I keep my calendar updated with any other information I have a secure garden and live on a farm so there are plenty of open spaces for walking and play. Dogs are allowed to make themselves at home and I hope to make them as comfortable as possible during their stay

About: I’ve had dogs and horses for as long as I can remember so pets have always been a huge part of my life and I wouldn’t be able to live without them! I look after every pet as if it be my own as they are only with us for a small part of our life but to them we are their whole entire lifetime! I work full time however every second outside of work is spent with my dog or horses. Weekends normally involve long walks around the fields or playing in the garden I have a fenced garden so that your pet can run around with my Labrador 😊 my lab is crated when needed so I can accommodate this if needed. Also have access to acres of farmland at my parent’s house 5 minutes away where they can run free if you would want them too

About: I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 16, mostly indoor cats, corn snakes, hamsters/gerbils & rats. I have 3 indoor cats, a Labrador & 2 fish. One of my cats is blind & has a replacement hip & back issues (all genetics), so I’m used to spoiling him & accommodating his medical requirements. The other 2 cats are younger & very fun & loving. I’ve had them all since kittens. They’re aged 7, 5 & 2. My Labrador is currently 8 months old. I feel I understand animals, their body language, what ‘normal’ behaviour is (I’ve had loads of cats growing up & each has been different!) & I’m good at picking up on any problems or mood changes. I’m sensitive to animals & their behaviour, never forcing them to come near me or doing anything they’re uncomfortable with. I’ll do anything to ensure the animals are happy & comfortable. I’ve got experience training my puppy Labrador & understand the requirements of puppies, so I’m happy to care for a puppy. Our Labrador attends gun dog training so I’d say I have an ‘above basic’ level of understanding of obedience training & happy to utilise this in dog walks if requested by you. I’m fully insured & have a diploma in pet first aid & animal CPR. Certificates available to view on request. I work a flexible part time job & happy to attend visits before & after work. I can make availability on weekends too, preferably early morning &/or late evening. Let me know your requirements & I will try my best to accommodate your pets. I will never commit if I can’t deliver the service. I request to meet your pets in your home prior to any care, drop ins or dog walks. This is to ensure I’m right for you, & you’re right for me. Once we’re all happy, I’d request you to complete a client pack. This consists of 5 forms & includes details of your pet, age, feeding details, habits, normal behaviour, any medication that needs issuing etc. It will also include your emergency contact info, vet release form incase your pet needs urgent vet care (this will always be run by you first). I will act as a temporary mum in your absence & follow your guidance & instruction. I’m happy to send photo’s & a video of your pet every visit to set your mind at ease & regular updates to reassure they’re okay. I know how it feels leaving animals with animal carers so this wouldn’t be a problem. If you have any questions about my care, please feel free to ask.

“Nathan is such a kind, caring and fun loving soul weather it be towards animals or humans and I would absolutely and do absolutely trust him with our pets. Nathan understands the importance of routine, love, fun and exercise your pet will need. He is an extremely trustworthy and honest person with a huge amount of integrity. Nathan often cares for our puppy and keeps a diary of all the activities he's done with him including, naps, feeding and toileting. He has done research in order to give him the best environment and the correct routines. When our puppy sees Nathan, he gets so excited and you can truly see what Nathan means to our puppy, it's beautiful to see.”

“Sarah’s love for all animals is abundant. Her experience, punctuality and credibility are all attributes that make her an excellent pet caregiver. 100% would recommend.”

About: In the heart of a bustling city, there lived a loyal canine named Tobias, who had been our cherished companion for eight remarkable years. From the moment Tobias entered our lives as a playful puppy, a bond was formed that would withstand the test of time. Tobias wasn't just a pet; he was family. I was deeply committed to providing the best care possible, embarked on a journey of learning and understanding, honing my skills in pet care over the years. Together, we navigated the joys and challenges of pet ownership, creating memories that would be cherished forever. Daily walks and interactive sessions are woven into my routine to provide bonding opportunities with your furry friend ensuring they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need to thrive. Ensuring pet safety and creating a trustworthy environment are paramount. Whether caring for pets at home or in their owners' residences, I adapt my services to meet specific needs, promoting a secure and comfortable environment for the animals in my care.

About: I have allways been caring of cats - my one for 9 years and at times my friends and family cats, when they needed helping hand. I am curently studying 2days per week so I could be helpfull to care for your cats on other days or around studies to suit your needs. I could visit your cat at your home to feedand check if they are doing well if you not there and need care. As I have cat at home I could not take it with me.

“Tabitha is a very reliable and trustworthy person. She loves dogs and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to dog walk. Her family has dogs and she is used to most breeds.”

About: I have grown up with a dog since a young age, who I loved very much. I take care of my sisters pets occasionally, the dog in the photos is my sisters dog Ted! I don't have any dogs but I enjoy spending time with puppies and dogs of any age. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! preferably Wednesdays and weekends would suite best, but I am flexible! I take care in great detail, I love my pets with all my heart. I'd take care of yours in the same way. Whether that being following rules you have already implemented, or just suiting your canine needs.
