“Clare has been looking after my cat and I must say she has been extremely accurate and attentive to all the requests. My cat was happy with her and all was more than expected, will definitely call again. Thank you”
“John was amazing look after the parrots and the piggies he message me everyday and send photo and videos showing how they was doing they was very happy when we got back and very well looked after will you John again he was amazing”
“Rebecca was absolutely fantastic with our 2 young cats, we had lovely daily updates and photos after her drop in visits which was really reassuring. Our babies were so well looked after and Rebecca was super responsive, we can’t recommend her enough!”
“Callum did a great job of looking after GC and Reggie. From our first meeting to hand over keys, I felt like my cats were in good hands, as he had obviously read their profiles carefully and absorbed what was needed, and he also immediately bonded with GC, who can be a little tricky with new people. I appreciated his daily check ins and proactive communication when one of my cats wasn't present one feeding time. Also dealt with medication needs with no problem. Great cat sitter - would recommend to anyone looking in the area and will be in touch ahead of my next trip. Thanks Callum!”
“Charlotte was brilliant, Pippa and Dolly took to her really quickly. The pictures, videos and updates put our minds at rest as they were well looked after and fussed with. Would definitely recommend Charlotte.”
“Thank you Mariia for dropping in on Dougal. We were very happy with your quick and positive responses and from the photos which you shared, Dougal enjoyed his walk too.”
About: My name is Nina and I have just moved to Bedford from Australia. In Australia I worked at a wildlife park and I’m missing that animal interaction so much since moving here. My last pet was treated like my own child, I was extremely in tune with his health and needs and he even had his own bedroom. I'm so excited to meet more fury animals and help them to live their best lives! I am currently working from home and have plenty of time to spend with fur babies outside of my work hours. My schedule is very flexible and can work for your needs. My number one priority when caring for your pet is their wellbeing. I will be giving your pet 100% of my attention when they are in my care.
About: I've been around all animals since I was a child from big dogs to cats to caged animals to birds. I love caring for pets as it brings me so much joy knowing they're in safe hands and you don't have to worry. I'm home every day of the week as I have a daughter of 1 year old. She too loves animals as I've had her around pets since she was born (safely obviously). I can work this job around my parenting. I have a fenced garden with plenty of running around room and am local to parks where your pets will meet others. I live in a very safe and secure neighbourhood.

About: I have loved animals all my life and have over 20 years of experience caring for pets. I have looked after dogs, cats and small animals for friends, family and neighbours. I understand that pets are part of the family and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I am reliable, calm and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I run my own local service business, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to fit pet visits and dog walks around my day. I am usually available mornings, afternoons and evenings for pet visits, feeding, playtime and walks. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I always try to keep their normal schedule while their owners are away. I always care for pets in a calm, gentle and responsible way. When visiting a pet in their home, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure the pet feels comfortable and safe in their own environment. I make sure food, water and litter trays are clean, and I spend time giving pets attention and play so they don’t feel lonely. I also treat every home with great respect and keep everything tidy and secure.
“I highly recommend Naomi, she has been taking great care of my cat. I received photos and updates of her progress each day. My cat is extremely timid and Naomi has spent time with her winning her over and even managed to stroke her.”
About: 🐾 Dog First Aid Qualified 🐾 Whether you’re at work, on holiday, or just need an extra helping hand, I’m here to give your dog the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve. With reliable walking and sitting services tailored to your pet’s needs, you can relax knowing your furry friend is in safe, loving hands. I treat every dog like my own — with plenty of play, cuddles, and tail-wagging fun! I care for dogs in a loving, family environment where they’re treated as part of the pack. Being home during the day means I can give your dog plenty of attention, company, and care—whether that’s regular walks, playtime in the garden, or just some comforting cuddles. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will enjoy a calm, friendly home with people around to keep them happy and secure. I have a large home in town with a lovely young female dog for them to play with, close to lots of parks, and I also drive to the countryside for walks.
About: I love dogs and had a shih tzu named Pebbles for 13 years. I also was a horse owner for many years so I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I work from home now and miss having a dog to shower with love and attention. My friends regularly ask me to dogsit for them when they are away. My schedule is flexible and I work on different time zones, so I have time during the day to accommodate for the specific needs of your dog. I have a small fenced area outside they can go out to during the day. I live and equal distance to Primrose Hill & Hampstead Heath, so lots of space to take them for long walks. I work from home and have lots of flexibility to take them out during the day. I am very adaptable to the needs of every dog I take care of. I have a nice lower ground floor flat with a walled off terrace outside. I usually keep the door open for them during the day to wander in and out as they please. Dogs are allowed to sleep in bed with me, except if the owner prefers otherwise if they are crate trained, etc.
About: I’m a full time registered veterinary nurse with eight years of experience in practice and many years of experience working with horses (and yard dogs and cats) before that. I am confident with animals of all ages and can give medications, physio, basic training, first aid etc. if needed. My family dog is a rescue from Dogs Trust so I’m also happy to help with dogs who need a bit more time getting used to a new person. I love all dogs but high energy breeds like collies are my favourite! 🥰 I work shifts Monday to Friday so my available times will vary and I’m generally free at the weekends. I can be flexible with house sitting for longer periods of time. I live with a very lovely cockapoo so unfortunately I am only able to care for dogs in my home if they are very well socialised and could match her energy. But I am happy to look after pets in the owners home if required!

Clare did a great job taking care of Coo for us while we were away. She sent us regular updates and pictures on how he was doing which we greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Clare if you’re looking for someone caring and trustworthy to care for your pet.
Jamie looked after our boy cat for the second time and he's clearly a big fan of her. As he's quite anxious, seeing photos of him sitting on her lap was just so amazing. She clearly has a way with cats and we couldn't be more grateful that we found her. Will definitely book again with her!
We cannot thank Amy enough for looking after Percy. It was our very first time seeking the help of a cat sitter and I'm glad we did. Percy was very comfortable with her, all we did was leave her with some instructions and the rest was all her. She communicates very well and we actually noticed she also did a bit of cleaning around Percy's area. Amazing service, I think we've found our regular cat sitter for when we need someone to look after Percy Highly recommend Amy! Thank you Amy!
Emma looked after Wilf and Chewie whilst we were going on what was to be quite an emotional trip. She was absolutely wonderful with our " fuss-cats ", she befriended them and sent us daily updates and videos. We came back to 2 happy chilled out cats..... Thank you so much Emma for your professionalism and attention to detail, 5 Star plus ....
Maria did a brilliant job looking after my two very wary cats over Christmas (and my stray). I had photos of them every day and everything was dealt with very efficiently and tidily. I really appreciated the little gift you left at the end too, as did Sootica and Sempra. I will definitely be in touch if I need a sitter again and would recommend to anyone, thank you. Xxx
Nikeisha was amazing with our cat Dimi! It was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous leaving Dimi with someone new but the daily updates and photos she sent us really helped put our minds at ease. She was responsible, followed our instructions closely and our cat seems to have warmed up to her in no time. We would definitely book with her again!
