“Rebecca was fantastic! She was so helpful taking on my pup as a last minute booking! She even provided a drop off and pick up service. I will definitely be using Rebecca again. A + service.”

“Rachel (and Ethan) took such good care of Saffy for us! She settled quickly and Rachel kept us updated with photos and messages to let us know how she was getting on. Saffy enjoyed her stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to leave her with Rachel again.”

“Lauren was amazing! Our dog Diana had the best time, especially playing with Lauren’s dog Archie! Lauren also took lovely photos and videos and sent them to us, some of the best photos we have of Diana! We would thoroughly recommend!”


About: My partner and I have had our king charles spaniel since he was a puppy and he is very comfortable with other dogs. We have experience with other breeds and your dog will be well looked after with a large garden to play in. One of us is at home 5 or 6 days every week and your dog will have the full attention on whoever is home. We can cater for any specific routines. Garden is completely fenced and we can cater to any requirements in terms of crating or rules around furniture etc. Please just tell us what your pet's normal routine is.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a passion for providing the best care possible for our furry friends. Four years ago, I welcomed my first "fur child" into my life—a playful spaniel who keeps me on my toes! Since then, I’ve put a lot of time and effort into learning how to be a responsible and loving owner, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I’ve also been lucky to spend time around dogs and horses over the years, which has deepened my appreciation for animals and their unique personalities. While our home is best suited for small to medium-sized dogs, any animal I look after must be friendly and comfortable with an energetic and playful spaniel. I’m all about tailoring my care to suit your pet’s individual needs. I’ll listen carefully to your guidance, follow routines, and make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s extra cuddles, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. I’d love to hear about your furry family member and how I can help! 😊 I currently work full time, but work from home Tuesdays and Thursdays! We see this as a perfect opportunity to dog sit and give our boy and wonderful friend to play with! Weekends are spent on engaging and exciting walks for our working spaniel. I have a fully enclosed, but small garden. We wouldn’t be able to accommodate large dogs for this reason. Our garden has a brick wall, with a gate for external access which is locked at all times. We have an open plan downstairs area. Animals will not be allowed upstairs, but will be with me in the downstairs area as I work from the kitchen table. They won’t be left alone in my care.
About: Since childhood, my life has been permeated with a love for nature and animals. In the home where I grew up, animals became our loyal companions – cats, dogs, hamsters, rats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits. My happiest childhood memory was that my mother took me to a national reserve where I met a huge variety of wild animals and they were all so mesmerizingly beautiful, with huge intelligent eyes (not counting the llama who spat in people's faces and stole hats, but it was fun😅). During school years, I became an active member of the local ecological center, caring for rodents and reptiles. In university, my passion for biology found its professional realization. I also traveled around Europe staying in people's homes to look after their animals while they were away. Currently I am website developer and working remotely, so I can also spend the whole day with your pets (on your territory). Available for visits and walks at any time. My services include looking after your pet, walking, playing, feeding, giving meds, brushing, cleaning, nail trimming. If you are interested in any other services, we can discuss it😉 In the case of home sitting and visits, I can look after the pet for as long as you need. I take key storage seriously, I do all visits personally and I have clients who can confirm that I do a good job of looking after the house and pets. I will not allow any strangers into the house in your absence if these visits have not been discussed with the owners of the house in advance.
“Mark and Katie were absolutely fantastic with our Whippet, Blue. From the start, we felt completely confident leaving her in their care. They’re warm, attentive, and clearly adore dogs, treating Blue like one of their own. We really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Blue had the best time and has become best friends with Watson — it’s so lovely to see how much she enjoys being with them! She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend Mark and Katie to anyone looking for amazing dog sitters.”

“Tania was really lovely and Isla seemed to fit right in for her 3 night stay. Tania kept me posted with photos and updates and Isla also enjoyed the company of Finley, Tania's gorgeous lab. I would definitely recommend Tania to anyone who is looking for peace of mind when having to leave their furbabies. Thanks again Tania, Isla will definitely be back for another visit 😊”

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 provide calm, reliable care and take the time to understand each dog as an individual. I’m very active and enjoy getting dogs out for appropriate exercise, but I’m equally mindful of routine, boundaries and downtime. I’m organised, observant and responsive, which means I pick up quickly on changes in behaviour or needs and adjust care accordingly. I’m comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding routines, medication, and care for senior dogs who need a gentler pace. Dog care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home part of the week and plan my days around walks and drop-ins, so I’m able to be reliable, punctual and flexible where needed. I’m happy to stick closely to your dog’s usual routine and can accommodate regular weekly bookings as well as occasional requests. I always prioritise safety, routine and clear communication. Before any booking, I like to understand a dog’s usual routine, behaviour, and any specific needs so I can care for them consistently and calmly. In a pet owner’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure doors, gates and leads are secure at all times. I follow feeding, walking and medication instructions carefully and never take risks with unfamiliar environments or off-lead time unless explicitly agreed. During walks and visits, I keep dogs supervised, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust activity levels to suit their age and energy. I also send regular photo updates so owners feel reassured their pet is safe, settled and happy.
“This was my first time using Rover and I’ve been really pleased. I went and met Mariesa with my dog Digby before his stay and then he stayed for bank holiday weekend. I had lots of updates and photos and Digby had a lovely time. Would definitely ask Mariesa to look after Digby again. He had a super time and more walks than at home!”

“I can’t say enough good things about the care Malena received from Nastassia. As a senior dog, she needs extra patience, gentleness, and attention and all of that was given in abundance. I felt completely at ease during the 3 week period knowing she was in loving, capable hands. Malena was treated like family, her routine was respected, and her comfort always came first with daily updates of how she is doing. I’m so grateful to have found Anastassia to trust with Malena's care while we are away.Highly recommended!”
“Alex took amazing care of our Eurasier, King. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. He had a lovely time, with lots of walks and even a doggy play date🐶 Thank you for taking such good care of him! 🐾🥰”

“Our puppy had a great time with Kirsty and her family during his stay. Lots of play dates and amazing walks. Kirsty kept us informed throughout Goyo’s stay, and we got amazing pictures and videos of our pup having a great time.”

“I was really anxious about leaving Finley (9 months) for the first time. He was well looked after and kept me posted with updates and pictures. I will definitely use Lucy’s services again for Finley.”

“Superb from beginning to end. John and Harry managed to fit us in at short notice and provided excellent communication throughout. They absolutely pampered our dog with care and attention and I can honestly say that whilst she was excited to see us at pick up, she clearly didn’t want to leave! 😊. Would use again in a heartbeat; probably the best overall dog sitting experience we have had!”

Rebecca was excellent, Richmond stayed for 3 nights, had updates all the way through which left us at ease being the first time we’ve left him for so long whilst we were away! He looked like he had so much fun meeting other dogs and going on lots of adventures. Would highly recommend!

OMG if you know u want the best environment and support for your dog at an unbelievable price 👏 she is the one my dog has seperation anxiety from me but Claire and her family made him feel love ❤️ and warmth from them he forgot about me in notime she also kept me updated with lovely photos just amazing 👏
Kirsty looked after our Nell for 4 days whilst we went away, and she had a fabulous time. She fitted in very well with the rest of the family and enjoyed going for lovely walks and getting belly rubs, her favourite thing! Would throughly recommend Kirsty to anyone, we will definitely be seeing her again I’m sure!

If I could give Alex 10 stars, I would! She is the loveliest, kindest most caring person and Reggie absolutely loves going for sleep overs with Auntie Alex! Reggie can be a bit wary of new people but immediately warmed to Alex which completely put me at ease leaving him over night. He has stayed over 3 times now and makes himself at home every time we arrive, he’s always so happy to see her! Alex always sends lots of updates when she takes him for lovely walks, play time and cuddles on the sofa. He always comes back super happy. I’m so glad we found Alex, thank you as always! 🤍

Lauren was so accommodating and my dog Lady had a lovely time staying with her. So much so that she didn’t want to leave on pick up. Lauren’s communication is great and she sent me updates about how Lady was getting on. Would definitely recommend Lauren and will definitely be using her again in the future.

Lucy & her partner took fabulous care of my Irish Wolfhound / Lurcher Ziggy. Communication was excellent from the time of booking and throughout the sit. I received regular updates and photos. He settled quickly and seemed to love staying with them. When I picked him up, he was very relaxed and content. I highly recommend Lucy as a confident and caring sitter who clearly loves animals. I’ll definitely be booking again.

100% would recommend Richard 👏 He looked after our Ollie, sent us updates and genuinely enjoyed having him and Ollie enjoyed Richard’s company too. He took on board all the little details we provided and we will be using him again so can’t rate more than that. It gives you peace of mind when leaving your fur babies in safe and caring hands. Thank you Richard x

Henry had a lovely day and overnight stay with Karolina. From moment we met and I dropped him off I could tell he would be happy and safe and well looked after. Karolina took him out for walks and sent me pictures and videos of his adventures. He got on really well with Karolina's dog Kimchee and loved pottering in the garden. He ate his food and wagged his tail so I know he was a happy boy and he is looking forward to his next stay.
